Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact or relating to present facts or current conditions contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “should,” “can have,” “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to statements we make regarding (1) our belief that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations and borrowings under our asset-based revolving credit facility and other foreign lines of credit will provide us adequate cash to fund the operating needs, working capital, capital expenditure, debt service and other requirements for our business for the foreseeable future; (2) estimated capital expenditures for future periods; and (3) estimated cost savings and opportunities to drive margin improvements.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on assumptions that we have made in light of our industry experience and our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual operating and financial performance and cause our performance to differ materially from the performance anticipated in the forward-looking statements, including the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 28, 2018. There may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of these assumptions prove incorrect, our actual operating and financial performance may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward-looking statements. We caution you therefore against relying on these forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speaks only as of the date on which we make it. Factors or events that could cause our actual operating and financial performance to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

MILACRON HOLDINGS CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and for the

Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

1. Background and Basis of Presentation

Milacron Holdings Corp. (the "Company" or "Milacron") is a global leader in the manufacture, distribution, and service of highly engineered and customized systems used in the plastic technology and processing industry. The Company has a full-line product portfolio that includes hot runner systems, injection molding, blow molding and extrusion equipment and produces process control systems, mold bases and components and maintenance, repair and operating ("MRO") supplies for plastic processing equipment and fluid technology. The Company operates throughout the world and is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the interim periods. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09, as further amended, affects virtually all aspects of an entity’s revenue recognition, including determining the measurement of revenue and the timing of when it is recognized for the transfer of goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018. The guidance permits two methods of adoption - retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). The new standard also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from customer contracts. The Company has completed its detailed review of the new standard and adopted Topic 606 on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method, which did not result in an adjustment to equity. The Company's sales transactions generally consist of a single performance obligation to transfer promised goods or services.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Costs ("ASU 2017-07"). ASU 2017-07 requires the service component of pension and other postretirement benefit costs to be presented in the same line item as other employee compensation costs on the consolidated statements of operations; however, the other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented outside of operating income within the consolidated statements of operations. ASU 2017-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017 and the Company adopted the accounting standard update as of January 1, 2018. The other components of net benefit cost of $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are presented in a separate line outside of operations within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has retrospectively applied the change in accounting principle to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard update had no other effect on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. Leases will be either classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 also requires significant additional disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 with early adoption allowed and practical expedients to measure the effect of adoption also being allowed. The Company does not plan to early adopt ASU 2016-02 and is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption will have on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Revenue

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASU 2014-09, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historic accounting.

The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all related appropriate guidance. The Company recognizes revenue under the core principle to depict the transfer of control to the Company's customers in an amount reflecting the consideration the Company expects to be entitled. In order to achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following five step approach: (1) identify the contact with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company considers customer purchase orders to be contracts with a customer. For each contract, the Company considers the promise to transfer products, each of which are distinct, to be the identified performance obligations. As the Company's standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-32-18 to not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component. The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct product based on their relative standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company's performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment.

The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue by primary geographical and end markets, and includes a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenue with reportable segments:

We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract, and are realized with the associated revenue recognized under the contract.

2. Revenue (continued)

Significant changes in the contract liabilities balances during the three months ended March 31, 2018 are as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2018
	(in millions)
Balance at beginning of period	$	62.8
Additional advanced billings and deposits received	99.3
Revenue recognized	(90.3		)
Foreign currency translation adjustments and other	(0.4		)
Balance at end of period	$	71.4

Sales, value add, and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The expected costs associated with our base warranties and field service actions are recognized as expense when the products are sold. We recognize revenue for service contracts that extend mechanical and maintenance beyond our base warranties overt the life of the contract.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As permitted by Topic 606, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (1) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, and (2) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The following table summarizes the changes in the Company’s goodwill, by reportable segment, for the three months ended March 31, 2018:

	Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies		Melt Delivery and Control Systems		Fluid Technologies		Corporate		Total
	(in millions)

The following table summarizes the Company’s other intangible assets at December 31, 2017:

	Gross Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Amount
	(in millions)
Intangible assets subject to amortization:

Trademarks, not subject to amortization	141.6		—		141.6
Total	$	537.1	$	204.7	$	332.4

Consolidated amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization was $6.8 million and $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

4. Income Taxes

An estimated annual effective tax rate is used to determine the quarterly provision for income taxes. The effective rate is based on various factors including expected annual income, statutory tax rates, tax planning opportunities in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, permanent items, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets and the ability to utilize tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards. Subsequent recognition, derecognition and measurement of tax positions are separately recognized in the quarter in which the underlying transaction or event occurs which causes variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

The effective rate for each period differs from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate due to the mix of earnings by jurisdiction and the effect of transaction costs and business combination accounting adjustments that do not provide tax benefits. The valuation allowances also cause volatility in the effective rate as they reduce deferred tax assets in jurisdictions which lack sufficient positive evidence regarding the ability to utilize the assets and no tax benefit or expense is recognized for losses or income incurred in those jurisdictions.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company records interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions within income tax expense in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company does not have a material liability recorded for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions for any period presented.

Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Act") was signed into law and it institutes fundamental changes to the taxation of multinational corporations. The Tax Act reduces the corporate tax rate to 21%, repeals the alternative minimum tax, limits the interest deduction, enhances the expensing of capital investments, implements a dividend exemption system, eliminates the deferral of foreign earnings, provides a minimum tax on low-taxed foreign earnings and new measures to deter base erosion. As part of the transition to the new tax system, the Tax Act imposes a one-time transition tax on historical undistributed earnings of foreign affiliates through the year ended December 31, 2017. Milacron has applied the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 when accounting for the enactment-date effects of the Tax Act. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has not completed its accounting for all effects of the Tax Act. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded as of December 31, 2017. The Company will continue to refine its calculations as additional analysis is completed and the Company’s estimates may also be impacted as the Company gains a more thorough understanding of the tax law. These changes could be material to income tax expense. As a result of the Tax Act, the Company projects U.S. taxable income for 2018. The projected taxable income has no impact on the effective tax rate as the expense of utilizing the U.S. net operating loss carryforwards is offset by the benefit of reversing the associated valuation allowances.

4. Income Taxes (continued)

Corporate Tax Rate Change - For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $4.6 million due to the decrease in the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. The income tax benefit resulted from reducing net deferred tax liabilities to the new lower rate. There was no impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements as a result of revaluing the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets as the income tax expense was offset by an income tax benefit for revaluing the associated valuation allowances. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded as of December 31, 2017 and the Company expects to be complete upon the filing of the Company's 2017 U.S. income tax return.

Elimination of Alternative Minimum Tax ("AMT") - For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $6.7 million due to the elimination of the AMT and the Company reversed valuation allowances recorded against its AMT credit carryovers. Under the Tax Act, the AMT credit carryovers will be refunded between 2019 and 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded as of December 31, 2017 and the Company expects to be complete upon the filing of the Company's 2017 U.S. income tax return.

Mandatory Transition Tax - For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a provisional transition tax of $6.5 million. The Company expects to utilize existing U.S. net operating loss carryovers in lieu of paying the transition tax over the next eight years. The one-time transition tax is based on the Company’s total post-1986 earnings and profits (E&P) which the Company had deferred from U.S. income taxes under previous U.S. tax law. The Company will continue to refine its calculations but no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded at December 31, 2017 were made during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") - The GILTI provisions of the Tax Act also require the Company to include in its U.S. income tax return foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of an allowable return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets. The Company expects that it will have incremental U.S. taxable income as a result of the GILTI provisions beginning in 2018. The FASB states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred. Given the complexity of the GILTI provisions, the Company is still evaluating the effects of the GILTI provisions and has not yet determined its accounting policy. As of March 31, 2018, the Company computed an estimate of GILTI income for 2018; however, the estimate did not impact the Company’s effective tax rate as discussed above.

Interest Limitation - The Tax Act limits net interest expense to 30% of adjusted taxable income. At March 31, 2018, the Company expects its interest expense deduction to be limited; however, the limitation does not impact the Company’s expected effective tax rate.

6. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors three noncontributory defined benefit pension plans for certain non-U.S. employees and retirees. One plan covers certain employees in the United Kingdom and the other two plans cover certain employees in Germany. The service cost was $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The other components of net periodic pension costs totaled $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and are included in other non-operating expenses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

7. Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") computations:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018		2017
	(in millions, except common share and per common share amounts)
Numerator:
Net earnings (loss)	$	5.9	$	(24.6	)
Denominator:
Denominator for basic EPS–weighted-average common shares	69,215,457		68,260,015
Dilutive effect of stock-based compensation arrangements	2,307,869		—
Denominator for diluted EPS–adjusted weighted-average common shares	71,523,326		68,260,015
Basic EPS	$	0.09	$	(0.36	)
Diluted EPS	$	0.08	$	(0.36	)

The diluted EPS calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2018 excludes the effect of 0.9 million outstanding stock options as their effect is anti-dilutive. The diluted EPS calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2017 excludes the effect of 0.7 million shares of restricted stock, 0.2 million restricted stock units and 5.3 million outstanding stock options as their effect is anti-dilutive. Holders of non-vested stock-based compensation awards do not have voting rights or rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends on the shares covered by the awards.

8. Stock-based Compensation

On March 1, 2018, the Company granted 0.1 million performance stock units, 0.3 million restricted stock awards and 0.2 million restricted stock units under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. The performance stock units contain a three-year performance period with a performance target based on return on invested capital and possible payouts ranging from 50% to 200% of the target awards. The restricted stock awards and restricted stock units vest in equal annual increments over three years.

9. Derivative Financial Instruments

In the normal course of business, including the purchasing of materials and selling of products, the Company is exposed to certain risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage risks from these market fluctuations. The Company is also exposed to certain risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and uses interest rate swaps to manage risk from these market fluctuations. The counterparties to these financial instruments are financial institutions with strong credit ratings. The Company maintains control over the size of positions entered into with any one counterparty and monitors the credit ratings of these institutions.

9. Derivative Financial Instruments (continued)

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company currently hedges its risk relative to fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, Euro and Japanese yen for forecasted cash outflows denominated in these currencies. The Company had foreign currency forward contracts denominated in these currencies outstanding with notional amounts totaling $20.1 million at March 31, 2018 and $0.3 million at December 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018, all of the Company’s outstanding instruments mature within the next nine months.

The Company’s derivative instruments discussed above are designated as cash flow hedges and the fair value of these derivative instruments was $0.2 million at March 31, 2018 and are included in other current liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and insignificant at December 31, 2017.

The Company also enters into derivative instruments (forwards) to economically hedge the impact of fluctuations in the Indian rupee. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recognized a gain of $0.1 million related to the changes in fair value of these derivative instruments not designated as hedges. These gains and losses are recognized immediately within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are classified within loss (gain) on currency translation. The fair value of these derivative instruments not designated as hedges at March 31, 2018 was insignificant.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt. In order to manage this risk, on February 16, 2017, Milacron LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into two interest rate swap transactions effective for a four-year period beginning January 31, 2018 with a total notional amount of $400.0 million. The interest rate swaps are intended to manage the Company's interest rate risk by fixing the interest rate on a portion of the Company's debt outstanding under the 2017 Term Loan Facility that was previously subject to a floating interest rate equal to 1-month LIBOR plus a credit spread. The swaps provide for the Company to pay a fixed rate of 2.062% per annum on such portion of the outstanding debt in exchange for receiving a variable interest rate based on 1-month LIBOR. The effect is a synthetically fixed rate of 2.062% plus the loan spread for the term and debt hedged.    

The Company designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of floating rate borrowings and expects the hedge to be highly effective in offsetting fluctuations in the designated interest payments resulting from changes in the benchmark interest rate. The gains and losses on the designated interest rate swaps will offset losses and gains on the transactions being hedged. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is calculated by taking into consideration current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties or the Company, as applicable. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized as interest expense, net as payments are paid or accrued. The remaining gain or loss in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of the future cash flows of the hedge item, if any (i.e. the ineffective portion), is recognized as interest expense, net during the current period. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded $0.1 million of hedge ineffectiveness in earnings.

The following table provides the effect of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

Type of instrument:	Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI on Derivative (Effective Portion)			Gain (Loss) Reclassified from Accumulated OCI into Income (Effective Portion)

Foreign exchange contracts	$	(0.2	)	$	—
Interest rate swaps	$	5.8		$	—
Three Months Ended March 31, 2017
Foreign exchange contracts	$	0.1		$	—

All gains (losses) that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into income (effective portion) are classified in loss (gain) on currency translation or cost of sales within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The gain (loss) recognized related to the ineffective portion of the foreign exchange contracts was immaterial for all periods presented.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments utilizing an established three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date as follows:

• Level 1–Valuation is based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

• Level 2–Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial statements.

• Level 3–Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurements.

The classification of fair value measurements within the established three-level hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to that measurement. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments were measured using valuations based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets (Level 2) and are valued by reference to similar financial instruments, adjusted for terms specific to the contracts. There were no transfers between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy during any period presented. The derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were as follows:

	Balance Sheet Location	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

2016 Actions

On September 30, 2016, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Ferromatik Milacron GmbH entered into an agreement with its local works council setting forth a restructuring plan related to its manufacturing facility in Malterdingen, Germany whereby certain operational functions will be shifted to the Company's operations in the Czech Republic, United States and India. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company identified additional employees to be included within the Company's existing restructuring plan. As a result of these additions, as well as the impact of movements in foreign currency, the Company expects to incur total severance and other related costs of approximately $28.0 million to $29.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded severance expense of $6.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, related to this restructuring plan which is included within other expense, net in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Substantially all of these costs will result in future cash expenditures and are expected to be substantially complete by the end of the first quarter of 2019. As the employees are required to render service in order to receive the termination benefits, the associated liability and expense are being recognized ratably over the future service period. The total remaining liability related to this plan was $12.3 million and $11.1 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and is included in other current liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

13. Sale-Leaseback Transaction

In December 2017, the Company completed the sale of certain manufacturing equipment in the Company's Advanced Plastic Processing Equipment segment. The Company received proceeds of $8.0 million in January 2018 from the sale and recorded a loss of $0.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2017. In connection to the sale, the Company simultaneously entered into an agreement to lease back the equipment for a period of six years with a total of approximately $8.0 million to be paid over the term of the lease in accordance with the rent schedule included in the lease agreement. The lease has been classified as an operating lease and the Company has an option to purchase the equipment at the future fair value upon expiration of the lease.

14. Business Segment Information

The Company’s operations are principally managed based upon the products that are produced and are comprised of three operating segments, which are the same as the Company’s reportable segments: Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies, Melt Delivery and Control Systems, and Fluid Technologies. The factors for determining the Company’s reportable segments include the manner in which management evaluates performance combined with the nature of the individual business activities. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on net sales and operating earnings. Operating earnings includes net sales to third parties, related cost of sales and operating expenses directly attributable to the segments. Operating earnings for each segment excludes items that are of a non-operating nature or are of a corporate or functional governance nature. Costs excluded from segment operating earnings include interest expense, income taxes and various corporate expenses such as transaction costs associated with the acquisition of certain businesses, stock-based compensation expense and other separately managed general and administrative costs. The effects of intersegment transactions have been eliminated.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

For an understanding of the significant factors that influenced our results, the following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This management’s discussion and analysis should also be read in conjunction with the management’s discussion and analysis and consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018.

Overview

Milacron Holdings Corp. ("Milacron", the "Company", "we", "us" or "our") is a global leader in the manufacture, distribution, and service of highly engineered and customized systems within the plastic technology and processing industry. We serve this market through the following three segments:

• Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies (“APPT”);

• Melt Delivery and Control Systems (“MDCS”); and

• Fluid Technologies (“Fluids”).

Our APPT segment designs, manufactures and sells plastic processing equipment and systems, which include injection molding, blow molding, extrusion and auxiliary systems along with the related parts and service, whereas our MDCS segment designs, manufactures and sells hot runner and process control systems, mold bases and components, and sells maintenance, repair and operating (“MRO”) supplies. Hot runner systems are designed for each product a customer manufactures on an injection molding machine. Our Fluids segment is a global manufacturer of synthetic and semi-synthetic lubricants and coolants.

We are the only global company with a full-line product portfolio that includes hot runner systems, injection molding, blow molding and extrusion equipment. We maintain strong market positions across these products, as well as leading positions in process control systems, mold bases and components, MRO supplies and fluid technology.

Milacron has strong brand recognition with over 150 years of continuous operations. With products sold in over 100 countries across six continents, our established and market-driven global footprint is well-positioned to benefit from continued robust industry growth in both developed and emerging markets. Our breadth of products, long history, and global reach have resulted in a large installed base of plastic processing machines and hot runner systems.

Our strategy is designed to maximize revenue from consumable products across the life of a machine, while offering plastic technology solutions to a broad customer base. Management estimates that the value of available consumables revenue across the life of a machine is one to four times the cost of a machine. This strategy has shifted our revenue and earnings model to be more heavily weighted towards consumables, which comprise the majority of revenue from our plastic processing related APPT and MDCS segments on a combined basis. The consumables portion of our APPT and MDCS segments consists of: (1) machine aftermarket parts and service which are required annually, (2) hot runner systems and mold bases which are required each time new plastic parts are designed and existing plastic parts are redesigned, and (3) upgrades and overhauls which occur as customers decide to improve the performance or extend the life of their machines. Upon a customer’s decision to replace a machine, we can repurchase the existing machine and sell it as a certified pre-owned machine. All of our sales in our Fluids segment are considered to be consumable and, when combined with our APPT and MDCS consumable product lines, consumables accounted for 64% of total fiscal 2017 sales and 68% of our sales for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We believe this percentage will increase as we capture more of our customers’ spend on consumable products through our lifecycle sales approach.

Our customers consist of many blue-chip and Fortune 500 companies including OEMs, molders and mold-makers. Our customer base covers a wide range of end market applications including packaging, automotive, medical, construction, consumer goods and electronics. Our sales are geographically diversified, with 46% in North America, 21% in Europe, 13% in China, 12% in India and 8% in the rest of the world for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Global population growth, coupled with continued urbanization, increased purchasing power and improved lifestyle in emerging markets has resulted in greater demand for a broad range of finished plastic products in many segments of the economy, including automotive, construction and consumer products. We believe that our strong global presence positions us well to capture a portion of this growth. Milacron has made significant investments in China and India in order to capitalize on the projected growth rates of the plastic business in these markets. We plan to continue to expand our manufacturing capabilities while also increasing our technical, marketing and sales efforts. We also continue to strategically reorganize our manufacturing base in order to shift resources to high growth geographic markets.

Key Drivers of our Businesses

Milacron’s strategy is focused on growing revenue and operating profits through selective initiatives that leverage our market position, geographic footprint and core competencies. Management expects, in the near term, profitability will be driven by both revenue growth and margin expansion. Management expects that revenue growth will come from underlying market growth in our key segments, geographic expansion of certain product lines, continued penetration of hot runners, and incremental share gain from new products. New products are focused on solidifying our current market position, expanding our addressable market and expanding the market through the introduction of technology that displaces other materials, primarily metal and glass. Operating margin expansion is expected to result from active cost reduction initiatives focused on leveraging our geographic footprint that will allow us to consolidate manufacturing capacity, sales offices and call centers on a regional basis, and shift certain back-office functions from a decentralized local structure to a low-cost country global shared service center model.

Cost Reduction Initiatives

Milacron’s organizational redesign and cost reduction initiatives are in the process of being implemented and are expected to yield approximately $35 million of annual run-rate cost savings by the end of 2018. In fiscal 2017, Milacron incurred approximately $59 million of one-time costs related to these projects and during the three months ended March 31, 2018, approximately $13 million of costs were incurred related to these projects.

See the information relating to implementation of strategic initiatives discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018.

Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies

The key factors affecting our APPT segment results include demand for plastic processing machinery, raw material inputs and cost structure.

Increased demand in the plastic processing machinery industry is expected to be driven by the overall expected rise in plastic processing, increasing equipment age and continuing advances in technology, such as the shift to higher-end equipment as plastic processors seek to reduce their operating costs and produce higher quality products. With 58% of APPT sales for the three months ended March 31, 2018 occurring in North America, demand is also impacted by customers bringing manufacturing operations back to North America.

Raw Material Inputs. Steel, which we source both directly and indirectly through our component suppliers, is the primary material used in our products. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments to hedge our commodity price risk and currently do not have a significant number of long-term supply contracts with key suppliers. In order to secure our supply needs, we have developed a global network of reliable, low-cost suppliers.

Cost Structure. Our APPT segment is focused on optimizing our global manufacturing and back-office infrastructure to maximize operating efficiencies and minimize fixed cost structure.

Melt Delivery and Control Systems

The key factors affecting our MDCS segment results include demand for hot runner systems and hot halves, mold bases, components, raw material inputs and cost structure.

Demand. Consistent with historical periods, according to a August 2017 Interconnection Consulting report, the hot runner market is expected to grow faster than the overall global economy based on macro-economic drivers involving product life cycles, demographics, technology conversion and greater use of plastic. Demand within the hot runner market is driven more by the frequency of product design changes and model refreshes than by end product volume, because hot runner systems are typically custom ordered for each new product mold, representing a critical factor in the market’s resiliency during economic cycles.

Raw Material Inputs. Steel is the primary raw material input for our MDCS segment. Although long-term contracts with steel suppliers are not typical, our business has purchase order commitments for a portion of our annual spend of higher-volume grades of steel. These purchase orders extend an average of three to six months, with prices negotiated annually. This allows us to forecast our costs in the MDCS segment and, given the short lead time between the initial request for a quotation and the finalized design, we have historically been able to pass along price changes, accordingly.

Cost Structure. Our MDCS segment is focused on controlling its cost structure by increasing low-cost country sourcing in addition to establishing comprehensive operations in India for applications engineering and the consolidation of several back-office support functions within our shared services center.

Fluid Technologies

The key factors affecting our Fluids segment results include demand for metalworking fluids and raw material inputs.

Demand. Demand for industrial fluids is closely tied to demand for metal products, which are produced on metalworking machinery through cutting, stamping and other processes. As industrial production and demand for metalworking machinery grows, manufacturers will require increased amounts of high-quality coolants, lubricants and cleaners to maximize productivity and extend the life of equipment and tooling. Market trends indicate higher technology fluids demand due to environmental and health concerns and as more exotic metals become more prevalent.

Raw Material Inputs. Many of the raw materials in our industrial fluids are derivatives of petroleum or natural gas. As a result, fluctuations in commodity-based pricing may impact the cost of these materials. We manage the impact of raw material cost increases through sales pricing adjustments, but we may be impacted by a delay in implementing these adjustments throughout our distribution network. In addition, due to the specialty nature of our products, some of our raw materials have few sources, and we may be impacted by disruptions to supply. Where possible, we seek alternative sources and, in some situations, we are able to reformulate product with alternative materials without impacting performance, environmental, or health and safety features.

New Orders and Backlog

New orders represent the value of incoming purchase orders received for a period of time that may or may not have been shipped during the period. New orders in the first three months of 2018 were $325.1 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 0.4%, compared to $326.4 million in the first three months of 2017. Excluding $15.2 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, new orders decreased 5.1% compared to the prior year period. New orders were primarily impacted by a decline in our European equipment business and hot runner business in China and North America, partially offset by growth in our Indian equipment business.

Backlog represents the value of unfilled orders as of the applicable date. These unfilled orders are supported by a valid purchase order and price, terms and credit have been approved by us. Our backlog of unfilled orders at March 31, 2018 was $301.7 million, an increase of $14.7 million from December 31, 2017 and an increase of $31.4 million from March 31, 2017. Excluding $2.6 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, backlog increased 4.2% compared to December 31, 2017. The increase in our backlog at March 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017 is predominantly driven by our North American equipment business. Excluding $11.6 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, backlog increased 7.3% compared to March 31, 2017. All of our backlog is expected to be filled within the next twelve months and there are no seasonal or other aspects of the backlog that would impact filling the orders.

Backlog of confirmed orders for equipment within the APPT business is tracked on a monthly basis. Lead times can vary significantly depending on the type and size of machine. Backlog within our MDCS businesses is relatively stable, as mold bases and hot runner systems have a short lead time from receipt of order to shipment with a global average of six to eight weeks; whereas spare parts sales of standard products are typically in stock and shipped with very little lead time. We do not track backlog in our Fluids segment as most orders are filled with minimal lead time.

Executive Overview

For the first three months of 2018, we reported sales of $310.4 million, operating earnings of $23.1 million and a net earnings of $5.9 million. This compares to sales of $285.4 million, operating earnings of $20.0 million and a net loss of $24.6 million for the first three months of 2017. Excluding $15.5 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 3.3% compared to the prior year period. We generated $55.4 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 17.8% of sales, during the first three months of 2018 compared to $50.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 17.5% of sales, during the first three months of 2017.

Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, APPT generated $161.9 million in sales, operating earnings of $2.6 million and $18.0 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 11.1% of sales, before corporate expenses, compared to $156.6 million in sales, operating earnings of $2.4 million and $17.4 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 11.1% of sales, before corporate expenses, in the same period of 2017. Excluding $5.1 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 0.1% compared to the prior year period.

22

Melt Delivery and Control Systems

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, MDCS generated $116.5 million in sales, operating earnings of $26.7 million and $38.2 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 32.8% of sales, before corporate expenses, compared to $99.8 million in sales, operating earnings of $25.5 million and $32.8 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 32.9% of sales, before corporate expenses, in the same period of 2017. Excluding $8.0 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 8.7% compared to the prior year period.

Fluid Technologies

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, Fluids generated $32.0 million in sales, operating earnings of $6.0 million and $7.1 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 22.2% of sales, before corporate expenses, compared to $29.0 million in sales, operating earnings of $4.6 million and $5.9 million in Adjusted EBITDA, or 20.3% of sales, before corporate expenses, in the same period of 2017. Excluding $2.4 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 2.1% compared to the prior year period.

Liquidity

In the first three months of 2018, cash decreased $11.2 million primarily as a result of our voluntary $25.0 million principal payment on the senior secured term loan facility due September 2023 ("2017 Term Loan Facility") in February 2018. Operating activities generated $7.6 million of cash in the first three months of 2018 compared to using $8.7 million of cash in the same period of 2017. The increase was primarily driven by a reduction in interest payments of approximately $15.0 million when compared to the first three months of 2017. This reduction in interest payments is attributable to the timing of our interest payments under the 2017 Term Loan Facility as well as a reduction in the weighted-average interest rate of our outstanding debt. Investing activities generated $0.7 million of cash in the first three months of 2018 as a result of proceeds received in connection with the sale of certain manufacturing equipment that we simultaneously leased back which was partially offset by capital expenditures during the first quarter of 2018. Financing activities used $22.3 million of cash in the first three months of 2018 primarily as a result of our voluntary $25.0 million principal payment on the 2017 Term Loan Facility. This use of cash during the first quarter was partially offset by proceeds generated from the exercise of stock options.

Cash on hand at March 31, 2018 was $176.7 million, and we had approximately $74.8 million available for borrowing under our asset-based and other credit facilities.

We may refer to net sales or other historical financial information on a “constant currency basis,” which is a non-GAAP financial measure. These references to constant currency basis do not include operational impacts that could result from fluctuations in foreign currency rates. To provide information on a constant currency basis, the applicable financial results are adjusted based on a simple mathematical model that translates current period results in local currency using the comparable prior year period’s currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries where the functional currency is the local country currency. This information is provided so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of business performance. Constant currency information is not recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Net Sales

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, sales were $310.4 million compared to $285.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $25.0 million, or 8.8%. Excluding $15.5 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 3.3%, on a constant currency basis, compared to the prior year period. Sales benefited from growth in the hot runner business in China and the Indian equipment business, partially offset by declines in the equipment business in North America and Europe. End market growth was driven by increases in the automotive, packaging, electronics and medical end markets, partially offset by declines in the consumer goods and industrial industries.

The following table sets forth our sales by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018		2017
	(in millions)
Sales by segment:
Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies	$	161.9	$	156.6
Melt Delivery and Control Systems	116.5		99.8

Sales for the APPT segment for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $161.9 million compared to $156.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $5.3 million, or 3.4%. Excluding $5.1 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 0.1%, on a constant currency basis, compared to the prior year period. Regionally, sales benefited from growth in India and China, partially offset by a decline in North America and Europe. End market growth was primarily driven by increases in the automotive and electronics industries, partially offset by a decline in the consumer goods and industrial end markets.

Melt Delivery and Control Systems

Sales for the MDCS segment for the three months ended March 31, 2018were $116.5 million compared to $99.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $16.7 million, or 16.7%. Excluding $8.0 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 8.7%, on a constant currency basis, compared to the prior year period. Regionally, sales benefited from growth in China. End market growth was primarily driven by increases in the automotive, consumer goods and electronics industries, partially offset by a decline in the custom molders end market.

Fluid Technologies

Sales for the Fluids segment for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $32.0 million compared to $29.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $3.0 million, or 10.3%. Excluding $2.4 million of favorable effects of foreign currency movements, sales increased 2.1%, on a constant currency basis, compared to the prior year period. Regionally, sales benefited from growth in North America and Asia. End market growth was primarily driven by increases in the automotive, electronics and aerospace industries.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $206.5 million compared to $191.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $14.9 million, or 7.8%. The increase is primarily due to increased sales volumes and material input costs.

24

Manufacturing Margins

Our manufacturing margin (or gross margin) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $103.9 million compared to $93.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $10.1 million, or 10.8%. The manufacturing margin as a percent of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 33.5% compared to 32.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase in manufacturing margin is primarily related to an increase in sales volumes within the Company's higher margin segments, MDCS and Fluids, when compared to the prior year. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2017 the Company encountered competitive pricing pressure within the APPT segment and incremental overtime within the MDCS segment that was not present in the first quarter of 2018.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $66.1 million compared to $64.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $1.8 million, or 2.8%. The increase is primarily related to stock-based compensation expense and selling costs associated with the increase in sales volumes. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in research and development costs and certain discretionary costs.

Amortization Expense

Amortization expense related to intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was$6.8 million compared to $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017,a decrease of $0.2 million, or 2.9%.The decrease is primarily related to accelerated amortization methods on certain intangible assets subject to amortization as well as favorable foreign currency translation effects.

Loss (gain) on Currency Translation

The loss on currency translation for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $0.2 million compared to a gain of $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in an unfavorable change of $1.5 million. The change primarily relates to the non-cash translation impact on intercompany advances related to the Canadian dollar associated with the acquisition of Mold-Masters Luxembourg Holdings S.à r.l within our MDCS segment.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $7.7 million compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $3.9 million. The increase is related to severance and other related costs incurred in connection with our restructuring plan at our Malterdingen, Germany facility.

Operating Earnings

Operating earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $23.1 million compared to $20.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $3.1 million, or 15.5%. The increase is related to an increase in sales volumes within the Company's higher margin segments, MDCS and Fluids, partially offset by an increase in severance and other related costs incurred in connection with our restructuring plan at our Malterdingen, Germany facility.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $10.7 million compared to $12.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 13.7%. The decrease is primarily due to a reduction in our weighted-average interest rate as a result of our debt refinancings during the first and fourth quarters of 2017.

Loss on Debt Extinguishment

Loss on debt extinguishment was $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $25.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The loss on debt extinguishment in 2017 was principally related to the $18.0 million premium paid upon the repayment of our 7.75% senior unsecured notes due 2021 (the "Senior Unsecured Notes") as well as the write-off of deferred financing costs related to the Senior Unsecured Notes and the senior secured term loan facility due September 2020 ("New Term Loan Facility").

Other Non-Operating Expense

Other non-operating expense was $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Other non-operating expense includes certain components of net periodic pension cost including interest costs, expected return on plan assets and amortization of actuarial gains and losses.

25

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $5.9 million compared to $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of $0.8 million. Income tax expense for all periods was primarily due to earnings in jurisdictions paying cash taxes or where utilization of deferred tax assets was not offset by reversal of valuation allowances.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. To supplement this information, we also use the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted for the other items reflected in the reconciliation table set forth below. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure used by management to measure operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with U.S. GAAP, is not a measure of financial condition or profitability, and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings (loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP or operating cash flows determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual non-recurring items. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not include certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments, debt service requirements and certain other cash costs that may recur in the future.

We view Adjusted EBITDA as a key measure of our performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA not only due to its importance for purposes of our credit agreements but also because it assists us in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis as it excludes items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA:

•as a measurement used in evaluating our consolidated and segment-level operating performance on a consistent basis;

•to calculate incentive compensation for our employees;

•for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget;

•to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies; and

•to assess compliance with various metrics associated with our debt agreements.

We believe that the inclusion of Adjusted EBITDA in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is useful to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items as well as items considered to be one-time or non-recurring to the operations of the business. While we believe these financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors, because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered as an alternative to performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net earnings (loss) before income tax expense, interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization further adjusted to exclude other items as reflected in the reconciliation table below.

In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses such as those used in calculating Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by usual or non-recurring items. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementary.

26

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted Net Income measures our operating performance by adjusting net earnings (loss) to exclude amortization expense, non-cash currency effect on intercompany advances, organizational redesign costs, long-term equity awards, acquisition integration costs, professional services and certain other non-recurring items. Management uses this measure to evaluate our core operating results as it excludes certain items whose fluctuations from period-to-period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the core operations of the business, but includes certain items such as depreciation, interest expense and income tax expense, which are otherwise excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. We believe the presentation of Adjusted Net Income enhances our investors’ overall understanding of the financial performance and cash flow of our business. You should not consider Adjusted Net Income as an alternative to net earnings (loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as an indicator of operating performance.

The following is a reconciliation of net earnings (loss), the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to Adjusted Net Income and to Adjusted EBITDA:

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2018			2017
	(in millions)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of liquidity is cash generated from operations and availability under our senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility") and other foreign credit facilities. At March 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $176.7 million, of which $32.3 million was held in the U.S. and $144.4 million was held by subsidiaries outside of the U.S. However, if such amounts were repatriated to the U.S., additional taxes would likely need to be accrued and paid depending on the source of the earnings remitted. For amounts we plan to repatriate, appropriate taxes have been accrued and we currently have no plans to repatriate any additional amounts for which U.S. taxes would need to be accrued.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Act") was signed into law and it institutes fundamental changes to the taxation of multinational corporations. The Tax Act reduces the corporate tax rate to 21%, repeals the alternative minimum tax, limits the interest deduction, enhances the expensing of capital investments, implements a dividend exemption system, eliminates the deferral of foreign earnings, provides a minimum tax on low-taxed foreign earnings and new measures to deter base erosion. The Company does not expect the Tax Act to have a material impact on our cash flows until existing U.S. net operating losses are utilized.

At March 31, 2018, we had $61.7 million of availability under our ABL Facility and $13.1 million of availability under other credit facilities. Our primary cash requirements are for working capital, operating expenses, capital expenditures and scheduled payments of principal and interest. We may from time to time seek to retire our outstanding debt. Such events, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we used $11.2 million of cash compared to using $42.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017. During the first three months of 2018, cash was used primarily for our voluntary $25.0 million principal payment on the 2017 Term Loan Facility in February 2018. During the first three months of 2017, cash was used primarily to redeem our Senior Unsecured Notes, fund capital expenditures and pay scheduled interest payments.

We believe that our current level of operations, our cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations and availability under our ABL Facility and other foreign lines of credit will provide us adequate cash to fund the operating needs, working capital, capital expenditure, debt service and other requirements for our business for the foreseeable future.Our ability to make scheduled payments of principal or interest on, or to refinance, our indebtedness or to fund working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other current obligations will depend on our ability to generate cash from operations. Such cash generation is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond our control. We have unused availability, subject to certain terms and conditions and other limitations, of $74.8 million under these lines of credit.

The following table shows our statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:    

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Net cash used in financing activities	(22.3		)	(27.4		)

Cash provided by (used in) operating activities

Operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 generated $7.6 million of cash compared to using $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The improvement was primarily driven by a reduction in interest payments of approximately $15.0 million when compared to the first three months of 2017. This reduction in interest payments is attributable to the timing of our interest payments under the 2017 Term Loan Facility as well as a reduction in the weighted-average interest rate of our outstanding debt.

29

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities

Investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 generated $0.7 million of cash compared to using $9.2 million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The improvement is due to a decrease in capital expenditures in 2018, offset by an increase in proceeds from disposals of property and equipment. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company received proceeds of $8.0 million from the sale of certain manufacturing equipment in the Company's Advanced Plastic Processing Equipment segment. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we completed the sale of our facility in Mechelen, Belgium generating approximately $3.0 million of net proceeds.

Cash used in financing activities

Financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 used $22.3 million compared to $27.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, cash was primarily used for our voluntary $25.0 million principal payment on the 2017 Term Loan Facility. This use of cash during the first quarter was partially offset by proceeds generated from the exercise of stock options. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, cash was used to pay the $18.0 million premium related to the redemption of our Senior Unsecured Notes and for other debt issuance costs.

Total debt, excluding unamortized discount and debt issuance costs, was $920.3 million at March 31, 2018 compared to $945.1 million at December 31, 2017. Total debt at March 31, 2018 mainly represented $912.5 million outstanding on the 2017 Term Loan Facility, while the ABL Facility was undrawn except for letter of credit issuances.

Description of the 2017 Term Loan Facility

On February 15, 2017, we entered into the $947.0 million 2017 Term Loan Facility, pursuant to a term loan agreement, among Milacron Holdings Corp., Milacron LLC, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The 2017 Term Loan Facility matures on September 28, 2023. The 2017 Term Loan Facility is secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the Company and guarantors’ assets other than accounts receivable, inventory, and other certain assets. The 2017 Term Loan Facility is also secured by a second-priority lien on all of the assets of the Company, Milacron LLC and the guarantors that secure the ABL Facility. The interest rate applicable to the 2017 Term Loan Facility is, at our option, equal to either (a) a base rate determined by the reference to the highest of (1) the prime commercial lending rate publicly announced by the administrative agent of the 2017 Term Loan Facility as the “prime rate” as in effect on such day, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and (3) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the cost of funds for Eurodollar deposits for an interest period of one month, plus 1.00% or (b) a LIBOR rate (which shall be no less than 0.00%) determined by reference to the costs of funds for Eurodollar deposits for the specified interest period, as adjusted for certain statutory reserve requirements. The applicable margins for borrowings are (i) 2.00% with respect to base rate borrowings and 3.00% with respect to LIBOR borrowings, subject to compliance with a total net leverage ratio of greater than 3.50 to 1.00 and (ii) 1.75% with respect to base rate borrowings and 2.75% with respect to LIBOR borrowings, subject to compliance with a total net leverage ratio not to exceed 3.50 to 1.00. The following amounts will be applied to repay the 2017 Term Loan Facility, subject to certain thresholds, carve-outs and exceptions: (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds of any incurrence of debt by us and certain of our subsidiaries, (ii) 100% of net cash proceeds of any non-ordinary course sale or other disposition of assets by us or certain subsidiaries and (iii) 50% of our excess cash flow, subject to certain reductions.

On November 8, 2017, the Company re-priced the 2017 Term Loan Facility. The applicable margins for borrowings are now (i) 1.75% with respect to base rate borrowings and 2.75% with respect to LIBOR borrowings, subject to compliance with a total net leverage ratio of greater then 3.50 to 1.00 and (ii) 1.50% with respect to base rate borrowings and 2.50% with respect to LIBOR borrowings, subject to compliance with a total net leverage ratio not to exceed 3.50 to 1.00. No other terms of the facility were changed.

Description of the ABL Facility

On April 30, 2012, we entered into the ABL Facility with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, RBC Capital Markets and Barclays Bank PLC, as joint lead arrangers and bookrunners which was amended and restated on March 28, 2013. The ABL Facility has a five-year term, bears interest at a floating rate and provides for an aggregate principal amount of $70.0 million of loans under the U.S. sub-facility thereunder and for an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million of loans under the Canadian sub-facility thereunder, each subject to a borrowing base and other limitations. We have the right at any time to request up to $20.0 million of additional commitments. The existing lenders under the ABL Facility are not under any obligation to provide such additional commitments, and any increase in commitments is subject to customary conditions precedent. On March 17, 2014, we exercised our right to increase the U.S. sub-facility of the ABL Facility by $10.0 million to $80.0 million and decrease the Canadian sub-facility by $10.0 million to $20.0 million. The covenants and other terms of the ABL Facility were not changed. On October 17, 2014, the ABL Facility was amended and restated to add a $25.0 million German sub-facility and the term was reset to mature on February 14, 2019 or October 17, 2019 subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions on or prior to February 14, 2019. The covenants and other terms of the ABL Facility were not materially changed. On May 15, 2015, the credit agreement governing the ABL Facility was amended and restated to, among other things, conform certain terms to the credit agreement governing the New Term Loan Facility. We had approximately $30.4 million of letters of credit outstanding as of March 31, 2018.

The obligations under the ABL Facility are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of the assets of the borrowers and the assets of the guarantors under such facility. In addition, the ABL Facility includes certain customary negative covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit the ability of the borrowers and their restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or certain other distributions on the Company’s capital stock, repurchase the Company’s capital stock, prepay subordinated indebtedness, incur liens on assets, make certain investments or other restricted payments, engage in transactions with affiliates, sell certain assets, merge or consolidate with or into other companies and alter the business that the Company conducts.

Description of Other Debt

At March 31, 2018, we had approximately $0.2 million in capital lease obligations outstanding as well as $7.6 million of borrowings under certain lines of creditand discounting programs. We also had approximately $2.8 million of outstanding letters of credit and other commitments related to these facilities at March 31, 2018.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and in doing so, we have to make estimates, assumptions and judgments affecting the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Different assumptions and judgments would change the estimates used in the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which, in turn, could change our results from those reported. We evaluate our critical accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments on an ongoing basis.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies from those previously included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risk

We are exposed to financial market risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices and credit risk. In the normal course of business and in accordance with our policies, we manage these risks through a variety of strategies, which may include the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge our underlying exposure. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes and we have policies and procedures in place that monitor and control their use.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We operate in international markets and, accordingly, our competitiveness and financial results are subject to foreign currency fluctuations where revenues and costs are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. In fiscal 2017 and during the three months ended March 31, 2018, approximately 57% and 61% of our sales were attributable to our operations outside of the United States, respectively. Approximately 48% of sales in fiscal 2017 were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, whereas a significant portion of our fixed costs, including payments made on our ABL Facility and our 2017 Term Loan Facility are denominated in U.S. dollars. Our earnings could be materially impacted particularly by movement in the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar, the Euro, the Chinese yuan renminbi, the Indian rupee and the U.S. dollar.

We occasionally use foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge our exposure to adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to known or expected cash flow exposures arising from international transactions. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had $24.2 million and $5.1 million, respectively, notional amount of forward exchange contracts outstanding with remaining maturities of up to nine months. As of March 31, 2018, the net fair value liability of financial instruments with exposure to foreign currency risk was $0.2 million. As of December 31, 2017, the net fair value of financial instruments with exposure to foreign currency risk was insignificant. The fair value of these financial instruments would hypothetically decrease by $2.4 million and $0.5 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, if the U.S. dollar were to appreciate against all other currencies by 10% of current levels.

Interest Rate Risk

We are primarily exposed to interest rate risk through our ABL Facility, 2017 New Term Loan Facility and other foreign lines of credit. Interest on our ABL Facility accrues, at our option, at either (i) LIBOR plus a margin of 1.75% to 2.25% per annum, based on availability or (ii) the highest rate of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, or (c) LIBOR plus 1.00% per annum, plus a margin of 0.75% to 1.25% per annum, based on availability. Interest on the 2017 Term Loan Facility accrues, at our option, equal to either (i) the published LIBOR rate, plus a margin of 2.50% (if our total net leverage ratio is less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00) or 2.75% (if our total net leverage ratio is greater than 3.50 to 1.00) per annum or (ii) the greater of (1) the prime rate, (2) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum, (3) published LIBOR rate plus 1.00% or (4) 2.00% per annum, plus 1.50% (if our total net leverage ratio is less than or equal to 3.50 to 1.00) or 1.75% (if our total net leverage ratio is greater than 3.50 to 1.00) per annum. In no event will the LIBOR rate be less than 0.00% at any time. We currently estimate that our annual interest expense on floating rate indebtedness would increase by approximately $9.1 million for each 1.00% increase in interest rates.

In order to manage this risk, on February 16, 2017, Milacron LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into two interest rate swap transactions effective for a period of four years beginning January 31, 2018 with a total notional amount of $400.0 million. The interest rate swaps are intended to manage the Company's interest rate risk by fixing the interest rate on a portion of the Company's debt outstanding under the 2017 Term Loan Facility that was previously subject to a floating interest rate equal to 1-month LIBOR plus a credit spread. The swaps provide for the Company to pay a fixed rate of 2.062% per annum on such portion of the outstanding debt in exchange for receiving a variable interest rate based on 1-month LIBOR. The effect is a synthetically fixed rate of 2.062% plus the loan spread for the term and debt hedged.    

Commodity Risk

We have direct and indirect exposure to certain commodities, principally steel and steel-based components. We typically do not enter into derivative financial instruments to hedge our commodity price risk and we do not currently have long-term supply contracts with key suppliers. While future movements of steel costs are uncertain, we respond to this volatility in a number of ways, including strategic steel purchases and customer price adjustments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of March 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that materially affected, or which are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Various lawsuits arising during the normal course of business are pending against us and our consolidated subsidiaries. We are vigorously defending these claims and believe we have reserves and insurance coverage sufficient to cover potential exposures.

While, in the opinion of management, the liability resulting from these matters will not have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity, the outcome of individual matters cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty at this time.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

For a discussion of our potential risks and uncertainties, see the information in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the first quarter of 2018 or from March 31, 2018 through the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Background and Basis of Presentation

Background and Basis of Presentation

Milacron Holdings Corp. (the "Company" or "Milacron") is a global leader in the manufacture, distribution, and service of highly engineered and customized systems used in the plastic technology and processing industry. The Company has a full-line product portfolio that includes hot runner systems, injection molding, blow molding and extrusion equipment and produces process control systems, mold bases and components and maintenance, repair and operating ("MRO") supplies for plastic processing equipment and fluid technology. The Company operates throughout the world and is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the interim periods. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09, as further amended, affects virtually all aspects of an entity’s revenue recognition, including determining the measurement of revenue and the timing of when it is recognized for the transfer of goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018. The guidance permits two methods of adoption - retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). The new standard also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from customer contracts. The Company has completed its detailed review of the new standard and adopted Topic 606 on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method, which did not result in an adjustment to equity. The Company's sales transactions generally consist of a single performance obligation to transfer promised goods or services.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Costs ("ASU 2017-07"). ASU 2017-07 requires the service component of pension and other postretirement benefit costs to be presented in the same line item as other employee compensation costs on the consolidated statements of operations; however, the other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented outside of operating income within the consolidated statements of operations. ASU 2017-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017 and the Company adopted the accounting standard update as of January 1, 2018. The other components of net benefit cost of $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are presented in a separate line outside of operations within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has retrospectively applied the change in accounting principle to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard update had no other effect on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. Leases will be either classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 also requires significant additional disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 with early adoption allowed and practical expedients to measure the effect of adoption also being allowed. The Company does not plan to early adopt ASU 2016-02 and is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption will have on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Revenue

Revenue

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASU 2014-09, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historic accounting.

The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all related appropriate guidance. The Company recognizes revenue under the core principle to depict the transfer of control to the Company's customers in an amount reflecting the consideration the Company expects to be entitled. In order to achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following five step approach: (1) identify the contact with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company considers customer purchase orders to be contracts with a customer. For each contract, the Company considers the promise to transfer products, each of which are distinct, to be the identified performance obligations. As the Company's standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-32-18 to not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component. The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct product based on their relative standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company's performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment.

The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue by primary geographical and end markets, and includes a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenue with reportable segments:

We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract, and are realized with the associated revenue recognized under the contract.

Significant changes in the contract liabilities balances during the three months ended March 31, 2018 are as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2018
	(in millions)
Balance at beginning of period	$	62.8
Additional advanced billings and deposits received	99.3
Revenue recognized	(90.3		)
Foreign currency translation adjustments and other	(0.4		)
Balance at end of period	$	71.4

Sales, value add, and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The expected costs associated with our base warranties and field service actions are recognized as expense when the products are sold. We recognize revenue for service contracts that extend mechanical and maintenance beyond our base warranties overt the life of the contract.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As permitted by Topic 606, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (1) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, and (2) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

An estimated annual effective tax rate is used to determine the quarterly provision for income taxes. The effective rate is based on various factors including expected annual income, statutory tax rates, tax planning opportunities in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, permanent items, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets and the ability to utilize tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards. Subsequent recognition, derecognition and measurement of tax positions are separately recognized in the quarter in which the underlying transaction or event occurs which causes variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

The effective rate for each period differs from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate due to the mix of earnings by jurisdiction and the effect of transaction costs and business combination accounting adjustments that do not provide tax benefits. The valuation allowances also cause volatility in the effective rate as they reduce deferred tax assets in jurisdictions which lack sufficient positive evidence regarding the ability to utilize the assets and no tax benefit or expense is recognized for losses or income incurred in those jurisdictions.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company records interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions within income tax expense in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company does not have a material liability recorded for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions for any period presented.

Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Act") was signed into law and it institutes fundamental changes to the taxation of multinational corporations. The Tax Act reduces the corporate tax rate to 21%, repeals the alternative minimum tax, limits the interest deduction, enhances the expensing of capital investments, implements a dividend exemption system, eliminates the deferral of foreign earnings, provides a minimum tax on low-taxed foreign earnings and new measures to deter base erosion. As part of the transition to the new tax system, the Tax Act imposes a one-time transition tax on historical undistributed earnings of foreign affiliates through the year ended December 31, 2017. Milacron has applied the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 when accounting for the enactment-date effects of the Tax Act. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has not completed its accounting for all effects of the Tax Act. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded as of December 31, 2017. The Company will continue to refine its calculations as additional analysis is completed and the Company’s estimates may also be impacted as the Company gains a more thorough understanding of the tax law. These changes could be material to income tax expense. As a result of the Tax Act, the Company projects U.S. taxable income for 2018. The projected taxable income has no impact on the effective tax rate as the expense of utilizing the U.S. net operating loss carryforwards is offset by the benefit of reversing the associated valuation allowances.

Corporate Tax Rate Change - For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $4.6 million due to the decrease in the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. The income tax benefit resulted from reducing net deferred tax liabilities to the new lower rate. There was no impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements as a result of revaluing the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets as the income tax expense was offset by an income tax benefit for revaluing the associated valuation allowances. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded as of December 31, 2017 and the Company expects to be complete upon the filing of the Company's 2017 U.S. income tax return.

Elimination of Alternative Minimum Tax ("AMT") - For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $6.7 million due to the elimination of the AMT and the Company reversed valuation allowances recorded against its AMT credit carryovers. Under the Tax Act, the AMT credit carryovers will be refunded between 2019 and 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded as of December 31, 2017 and the Company expects to be complete upon the filing of the Company's 2017 U.S. income tax return.

Mandatory Transition Tax - For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a provisional transition tax of $6.5 million. The Company expects to utilize existing U.S. net operating loss carryovers in lieu of paying the transition tax over the next eight years. The one-time transition tax is based on the Company’s total post-1986 earnings and profits (E&P) which the Company had deferred from U.S. income taxes under previous U.S. tax law. The Company will continue to refine its calculations but no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded at December 31, 2017 were made during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") - The GILTI provisions of the Tax Act also require the Company to include in its U.S. income tax return foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of an allowable return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets. The Company expects that it will have incremental U.S. taxable income as a result of the GILTI provisions beginning in 2018. The FASB states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred. Given the complexity of the GILTI provisions, the Company is still evaluating the effects of the GILTI provisions and has not yet determined its accounting policy. As of March 31, 2018, the Company computed an estimate of GILTI income for 2018; however, the estimate did not impact the Company’s effective tax rate as discussed above.

Interest Limitation - The Tax Act limits net interest expense to 30% of adjusted taxable income. At March 31, 2018, the Company expects its interest expense deduction to be limited; however, the limitation does not impact the Company’s expected effective tax rate.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

In the normal course of business, including the purchasing of materials and selling of products, the Company is exposed to certain risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage risks from these market fluctuations. The Company is also exposed to certain risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and uses interest rate swaps to manage risk from these market fluctuations. The counterparties to these financial instruments are financial institutions with strong credit ratings. The Company maintains control over the size of positions entered into with any one counterparty and monitors the credit ratings of these institutions.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company currently hedges its risk relative to fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, Euro and Japanese yen for forecasted cash outflows denominated in these currencies. The Company had foreign currency forward contracts denominated in these currencies outstanding with notional amounts totaling $20.1 million at March 31, 2018 and $0.3 million at December 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018, all of the Company’s outstanding instruments mature within the next nine months.

The Company’s derivative instruments discussed above are designated as cash flow hedges and the fair value of these derivative instruments was $0.2 million at March 31, 2018 and are included in other current liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and insignificant at December 31, 2017.

The Company also enters into derivative instruments (forwards) to economically hedge the impact of fluctuations in the Indian rupee. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recognized a gain of $0.1 million related to the changes in fair value of these derivative instruments not designated as hedges. These gains and losses are recognized immediately within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are classified within loss (gain) on currency translation. The fair value of these derivative instruments not designated as hedges at March 31, 2018 was insignificant.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt. In order to manage this risk, on February 16, 2017, Milacron LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into two interest rate swap transactions effective for a four-year period beginning January 31, 2018 with a total notional amount of $400.0 million. The interest rate swaps are intended to manage the Company's interest rate risk by fixing the interest rate on a portion of the Company's debt outstanding under the 2017 Term Loan Facility that was previously subject to a floating interest rate equal to 1-month LIBOR plus a credit spread. The swaps provide for the Company to pay a fixed rate of 2.062% per annum on such portion of the outstanding debt in exchange for receiving a variable interest rate based on 1-month LIBOR. The effect is a synthetically fixed rate of 2.062% plus the loan spread for the term and debt hedged.    

The Company designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of floating rate borrowings and expects the hedge to be highly effective in offsetting fluctuations in the designated interest payments resulting from changes in the benchmark interest rate. The gains and losses on the designated interest rate swaps will offset losses and gains on the transactions being hedged. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is calculated by taking into consideration current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties or the Company, as applicable. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized as interest expense, net as payments are paid or accrued. The remaining gain or loss in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of the future cash flows of the hedge item, if any (i.e. the ineffective portion), is recognized as interest expense, net during the current period. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded $0.1 million of hedge ineffectiveness in earnings.

The following table provides the effect of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017:

Type of instrument:	Gain (Loss) Recognized in OCI on Derivative (Effective Portion)			Gain (Loss) Reclassified from Accumulated OCI into Income (Effective Portion)

Foreign exchange contracts	$	(0.2	)	$	—
Interest rate swaps	$	5.8		$	—
Three Months Ended March 31, 2017
Foreign exchange contracts	$	0.1		$	—

All gains (losses) that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into income (effective portion) are classified in loss (gain) on currency translation or cost of sales within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The gain (loss) recognized related to the ineffective portion of the foreign exchange contracts was immaterial for all periods presented.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments utilizing an established three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date as follows:

• Level 1–Valuation is based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

• Level 2–Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial statements.

• Level 3–Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurements.

The classification of fair value measurements within the established three-level hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to that measurement. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments were measured using valuations based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets (Level 2) and are valued by reference to similar financial instruments, adjusted for terms specific to the contracts. There were no transfers between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy during any period presented. The derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were as follows:

	Balance Sheet Location	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

2017 Actions

In the second quarter of 2017, the Company recorded severance expense related to the elimination of certain positions within the Company's Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies and Corporate segments. These amounts are expected to be substantially paid in cash by the fourth quarter of 2018. The total remaining liability under these severance-related actions was $0.5 million and $1.2 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and is included in other current liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

2016 Actions

On September 30, 2016, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Ferromatik Milacron GmbH entered into an agreement with its local works council setting forth a restructuring plan related to its manufacturing facility in Malterdingen, Germany whereby certain operational functions will be shifted to the Company's operations in the Czech Republic, United States and India. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company identified additional employees to be included within the Company's existing restructuring plan. As a result of these additions, as well as the impact of movements in foreign currency, the Company expects to incur total severance and other related costs of approximately $28.0 million to $29.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded severance expense of $6.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, related to this restructuring plan which is included within other expense, net in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Substantially all of these costs will result in future cash expenditures and are expected to be substantially complete by the end of the first quarter of 2019. As the employees are required to render service in order to receive the termination benefits, the associated liability and expense are being recognized ratably over the future service period. The total remaining liability related to this plan was $12.3 million and $11.1 million as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and is included in other current liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Business Segment Information

Business Segment Information

The Company’s operations are principally managed based upon the products that are produced and are comprised of three operating segments, which are the same as the Company’s reportable segments: Advanced Plastic Processing Technologies, Melt Delivery and Control Systems, and Fluid Technologies. The factors for determining the Company’s reportable segments include the manner in which management evaluates performance combined with the nature of the individual business activities. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on net sales and operating earnings. Operating earnings includes net sales to third parties, related cost of sales and operating expenses directly attributable to the segments. Operating earnings for each segment excludes items that are of a non-operating nature or are of a corporate or functional governance nature. Costs excluded from segment operating earnings include interest expense, income taxes and various corporate expenses such as transaction costs associated with the acquisition of certain businesses, stock-based compensation expense and other separately managed general and administrative costs. The effects of intersegment transactions have been eliminated.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the interim periods. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09, as further amended, affects virtually all aspects of an entity’s revenue recognition, including determining the measurement of revenue and the timing of when it is recognized for the transfer of goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018. The guidance permits two methods of adoption - retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). The new standard also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from customer contracts. The Company has completed its detailed review of the new standard and adopted Topic 606 on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method, which did not result in an adjustment to equity. The Company's sales transactions generally consist of a single performance obligation to transfer promised goods or services.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Costs ("ASU 2017-07"). ASU 2017-07 requires the service component of pension and other postretirement benefit costs to be presented in the same line item as other employee compensation costs on the consolidated statements of operations; however, the other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented outside of operating income within the consolidated statements of operations. ASU 2017-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017 and the Company adopted the accounting standard update as of January 1, 2018. The other components of net benefit cost of $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are presented in a separate line outside of operations within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has retrospectively applied the change in accounting principle to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard update had no other effect on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. Leases will be either classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 also requires significant additional disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 with early adoption allowed and practical expedients to measure the effect of adoption also being allowed. The Company does not plan to early adopt ASU 2016-02 and is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption will have on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
