NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED

NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Company and Background

The Company began operations in 1978 and was originally incorporated in California as Trimble Navigation Limited in 1981. On October 1, 2016, Trimble Navigation Limited changed its name to Trimble Inc. ("Trimble" or the "Company") and changed its state of incorporation from the State of California to the State of Delaware. Other than the change in corporate domicile, the reincorporation did not result in any change in the business, physical location, management, assets, liabilities, or total stockholders' equity of the Company, nor did it result in any change in location of the Company's employees, including the Company's management.

Basis of Presentation

The Company has a 52-53 week fiscal year, ending on the Friday nearest to December 31, which for fiscal 2019 is January 3, 2020 and for fiscal 2018 was December 28, 2018. The first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018 ended on March 29, 2019 and March 30, 2018, respectively. Fiscal 2019 is 53-week year and 2018 is 52-week year. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to the Company’s fiscal year and fiscal periods.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Noncontrolling interests represent the noncontrolling stockholders’ proportionate share of the net assets and results of operations of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries.

The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in Trimble's Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 21, 2019.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Estimates and assumptions are used for revenue recognition, including determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations and determining standalone selling price of performance obligations, allowances for doubtful accounts, sales returns reserve, allowances for inventory valuation, warranty costs, investments, goodwill impairment, intangibles impairment, purchased intangibles, useful lives for tangible and intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and income taxes among others. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management's estimates and assumptions.

NOTE 2. UPDATES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting polices during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 from those disclosed in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, except for the following changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting the new lease standard as discussed below:

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new lease standard that requires a lessee to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases and provide enhanced disclosures. The Company adopted the new standard at the beginning of fiscal year 2019 by applying a modified retrospective method without restating comparative periods. Upon adoption, certain practical expedients were used to carry forward existing leases as previously defined and classified. Leases containing both lease and non-lease components are accounted for as part of the overall lease arrangement.

Operating leases with lease terms greater than one year are included in Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, Other current liabilities, and Operating lease liabilities on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Those ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the present value of lease payments over the lease terms by utilizing the Company’s incremental borrowing rate.

The standard had a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets but did not have an impact on its Condensed Consolidated Income Statements or Statement of Cash Flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of $123.5 million ROU assets and $126.1 million lease liabilities for its operating leases at the adoption date.

Recently issued Accounting Pronouncements not yet adopted

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance that requires credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis to be presented based on the net amount expected to be collected, not based on incurred losses. Further, credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. The new standard is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2020. Early adoption for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the updated standard on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Intangibles - Goodwill and Other

In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance that simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by requiring impairment charges to be based on the first step in the current two-step impairment test. The impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and an impairment charge would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The new standard is applied on a prospective basis and is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. The Company currently anticipates that the adoption will not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Intangibles - Internal-Use Software

In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance that clarifies the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. This guidance aligns the accounting for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the accounting for implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company is required to adopt the guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the new guidance on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Stock Repurchase Activities

In November 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program ("2017 Stock Repurchase Program"), authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $600.0 million of Trimble’s common stock.

Under the share repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares from time to time in open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share buyback programs, tender offers, or by other means. The timing and amount of repurchase transactions will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price, legal requirements, and other factors. The program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company repurchased approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock in open market purchases, at an average price of $39.59 per share, for a total of $40.0 million under the 2017 Stock Repurchase Program.

Stock repurchases are reflected as a decrease to common stock based on par value and additional-paid-in-capital based on the average book value per share for all outstanding shares, calculated at the time of each individual repurchase transaction. The excess of the purchase price over this average for each repurchase is charged to retained earnings. As a result of the repurchases, retained earnings was reduced by $33.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Common stock repurchases under the program were recorded based upon the trade date for accounting purposes. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the 2017 Stock Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $312.2 million.

NOTE 4. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

The Company determined the total consideration paid for each of its acquisitions as well as the fair value of the assets acquired

and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The fair value of intangible assets acquired is generally determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis. The preliminary fair values of net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired were based on preliminary valuations and estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The primary areas that remain preliminary relate to the fair values of intangible assets acquired, certain tangible assets and liabilities acquired, income and non-income based taxes, and residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair values of the net assets acquired during the measurement period.

Intangible Assets

The following table presents details of the Company’s total intangible assets:

As of	First Quarter of Fiscal 2019							Fiscal Year End 2018
	Gross							Gross
	Carrying		Accumulated			Net Carrying		Carrying		Accumulated			Net Carrying

Viewpoint and e-Builder acquisitions

On July 2, 2018, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Viewpoint in an all-cash transaction valued at $1,211.3 million. Viewpoint is a provider of construction management software, which integrates a contractor’s financial and resource management to their project operations in the field. The integration across the office, team, and field workflows enables contractors to employ Viewpoint to effectively manage and gain visibility over data and workflows that span the construction lifecycle from pre-production planning, to product operations and supply chain management, through project hand over, and asset operation and maintenance.

On February 2, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of e-Builder in an all-cash transaction valued at $485.5 million. e-Builder is a SaaS-based construction program management solution for capital program owners and program management firms that provides an integrated project delivery solution for owners, program managers, and contractors across the design, construct, and operate lifecycle.

Viewpoint and e-Builder’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income since their respective acquisition dates and for the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Both Viewpoint and e-Builder's performance are reported under the Buildings and Infrastructure segment.

The two acquisitions were funded through the use of approximately $211.2 million of the Company’s existing cash, with the remainder funded through the issuance of senior notes and the Company’s 2018 Credit Facilities (as defined in Note 7).

The following table summarizes the consideration transferred to acquire Viewpoint and e-Builder, the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, and the estimated useful lives of the identifiable intangible assets as of the dates of the acquisitions:

(In millions)	Viewpoint				e-Builder
Total purchase consideration	$	1,211.3			$	485.5
Net tangible assets acquired	(0.4		)		2.0
Intangible assets acquired:				Estimated Useful Life				Estimated Useful Life

Favorable Lease	4.3			4 - 9 years	—
Subtotal	410.1				109.4
Deferred tax liability	(61.2		)		(18.2		)
Less fair value of all assets/liabilities acquired	348.5				93.2
Goodwill	$	862.8			$	392.3

$52.6 million

Goodwill consisted of highly skilled and valuable assembled workforce, a proven ability to generate new products and services to drive future revenue, and a premium paid by the Company for synergies unique to its business. As of the first quarter of fiscal 2019, goodwill of $95.8 million for Viewpoint is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The following table presents supplemental pro forma results of operations of the Company, Viewpoint, and e-Builder, as if the companies had been combined as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. The unaudited pro forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that would have occurred had the acquisitions taken place on the first day of fiscal 2018, or of future results. Included in the pro forma results are fair value adjustments based on the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the applicable acquisition dates. For the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the major impacts for the pro forma results include amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisitions, impacts from adoption of Revenue from Contracts with Customers, interest expense for debt used to purchase Viewpoint and e-Builder, income tax effects, and other adjustments to reflect fair value. The pro forma information for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 is as follows:

NOTE 6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company's operating segments were determined based on how the Company's chief operating decision maker views and evaluates operations. The Company’s reportable segments are described below:

• Buildings and Infrastructure: This segment primarily serves customers working in architecture, engineering, construction, and operations and maintenance.

• Geospatial: This segment primarily serves customers working in surveying, engineering, government, and land management.

• Resources and Utilities: This segment primarily serves customers working in agriculture, forestry, and utilities.

• Transportation: This segment primarily serves customers working in long haul trucking, field service management, rail, and military aviation.

The following Reporting Segment tables reflect the results of the Company’s reportable operating segments under its management reporting system. These results are not necessarily in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The Company presents segment revenue and income excluding the effects of certain acquired deferred revenue that was written down to fair value in purchase accounting. Segment income presented also excludes the effects of certain acquired capitalized commissions that were eliminated in purchase accounting, along with other adjustments that have historically been excluded in prior periods, as though the acquired companies operated independently in the periods presented. This is consistent with the way the chief operating decision maker evaluates each of the segment's performance and allocates resources. Comparative period financial information by reportable segment has been recast to conform with the current presentation.

For the 2023 and 2028 Senior Notes, the interest rate is subject to adjustment from time to time if Moody’s or S&P (or, if applicable, a substitute rating agency) downgrades (or subsequently upgrades) its rating assigned to the notes.

Senior Notes are unsecured and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company's other senior unsecured indebtedness. The Company may redeem the notes of each series of Senior Notes at its option in whole or in part at any time. Such indenture also contains covenants limiting the Company’s ability to create certain liens, enter into sale and lease-back transactions, and consolidate or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the Company’s properties and assets, each subject to certain exceptions.

13

2018 Credit facilities

The Credit Facility in the above table provides for unsecured credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $1.75 billion, which is comprised of $1.25 billion revolving credit facility maturing May 2023 and $500.0 million delayed draw term loan facility that matures on the third anniversary of the funding date. The Company may request an additional loan facility up to $500.0 million.

Uncommitted Facilities

For further information, refer to Note 7 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2018.

NOTE 8. LEASES

The Company has operating leases primarily for certain of its major facilities, including corporate offices, research and development facilities, and manufacturing facilities. The leases have remaining lease terms generally ranging from 1 to 8 years, some that include options to extend the lease for up to 10 years. The Company considers options to extend the lease in determining the lease term.

Operating lease expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018 was $14.4 million and $10.3 million, respectively. For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, $2.7 million of the lease expense was related to leases with terms of one year or less that are not recognized on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Total	$	123.4

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company determines fair value based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Hierarchical levels are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities and are as follows:

Level I—Observable inputs such as unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level II—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level III—Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The fair value of assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis at the end of period were as follows:

	Fair Values as of the end of the First Quarter of Fiscal 2019								Fair Values as of Fiscal Year End 2018
(In millions)	Level I		Level II		Level III		Total		Level I		Level II		Level III		Total
Assets
Deferred compensation plan assets (1)	$	33.9	$	—	$	—	$	33.9	$	28.5	$	—	$	—	$	28.5
Derivatives assets (2)	—		0.5		—		0.5		—		0.4		—		0.4
Total assets measured at fair value	$	33.9	$	0.5	$	—	$	34.4	$	28.5	$	0.4	$	—	$	28.9
Liabilities
Deferred compensation plan liabilities (1)	33.9		—		—		33.9		$	28.5	$	—	$	—	$	28.5
Derivatives liabilities (2)	—		0.4		—		0.4		—		—		—		—
Contingent consideration liabilities (3)	—		—		5.3		5.3		—		—		5.6		5.6
Total liabilities measured at fair value	$	33.9	$	0.4	$	5.3	$	39.6	$	28.5	$	—	$	5.6	$	34.1

(1) The Company maintains a self-directed, non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain executives and other highly compensated employees. The plan assets and liabilities are invested in actively traded mutual funds and individual stocks valued using observable quoted prices in active markets.

(2) Derivative assets and liabilities primarily represent forward currency exchange contracts to minimize the short-term impact of foreign currency exchange rates on certain trade and inter-company receivables and payables.

15

(3) Contingent consideration liabilities represent arrangements to pay the former owners of certain companies that Trimble acquired. The fair values are estimated using scenario-based methods or option pricing methods based upon estimated future revenues, gross margins or other milestones.

Additional Fair Value Information

The total estimated fair value of all outstanding financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis (debt) was approximately $1.9 billion and $2.0 billion for the first quarter of 2019 and fiscal year end 2018, respectively, consistent with the carrying values.

The fair value of the Senior Notes was determined based on observable market prices in less active markets and is categorized accordingly as Level II in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the bank borrowings and promissory notes has been calculated using an estimate of the interest rate the Company would have had to pay on the issuance of notes with a similar maturity and by discounting the cash flows at that rate and is categorized as Level II in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values do not give an indication of the amount that the Company would currently have to pay to extinguish any of this debt.

NOTE 10. DEFERRED COSTS TO OBTAIN CUSTOMER CONTRACTS

The Company classifies all deferred costs to obtain customer contracts, which consists of deferred commissions, as a non-current asset included in Deferred Costs, non-current on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and fiscal year end 2018, the Company had $41.3 million of deferred costs to obtain customer contracts.

Amortization expense related to deferred costs to obtain customer contracts for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018 was $5.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively. This expense was included in Sales and marketing expenses in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. There was no impairment loss related to the deferred commissions for either period presented.

NOTE 11. PRODUCT WARRANTIES

The Company accrues for warranty costs as part of its cost of sales based on associated material product costs, technical support, labor costs, and costs incurred by third parties performing work on the Company’s behalf. The Company’s expected future costs are primarily estimated based upon historical trends in the volume of product returns within the warranty period and the costs to repair or replace the equipment. When products sold include warranty provisions, they are covered by a warranty for periods ranging generally from one year to two years.

While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage, and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be required.

Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 are as follows:

(In millions)
Balance as of fiscal year end 2018	$	15.3
Accruals for warranties issued	3.4
Changes in estimates	0.3
Warranty settlements (in cash or in kind)	(4.9		)
Balance as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019	$	14.1

NOTE 12. DEFERRED REVENUE AND REMAININGPERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS

Deferred Revenue

Changes in the Company’s deferred revenue during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	First Quarter of
(In millions)	2019			2018
Beginning balance of the period	$	387.3		$	276.6
Revenue recognized	(138.4		)	(98.0		)
Acquired deferred revenue	—			22.3
Net deferred revenue activity	215.5			159.5
Ending balance of the period	$	464.4		$	360.4

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019, approximately $1.1 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for which goods or services have not been delivered, primarily subscription and software maintenance, and to a lesser extent, hardware and professional services contracts. The Company expects to recognize revenue of approximately 72% and 17% on these remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 24 months, respectively, with the remainder recognized thereafter.

NOTE 13. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing Net income attributable to Trimble Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing Net income attributable to Trimble Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, shares to be purchased under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan, restricted stock units, and contingently issuable shares.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

	First Quarter of
	2019		2018
(In millions, except per share amounts)
Numerator:
Net income attributable to Trimble Inc.	$	62.3	$	58.5
Denominator:
Weighted average number of common shares used in basic earnings per share	251.5		248.8
Effect of dilutive securities	2.5		4.4
Weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares used in diluted earnings per share	254.0		253.2
Basic earnings per share	$	0.25	$	0.24
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.25	$	0.23

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018, the Company excluded insignificant shares of outstanding stock options from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company’s effective income tax rate, after including discrete items, was 17%, as compared to 12% in the corresponding period in fiscal 2018, primarily due to a one-time tax benefit from foreign deferred tax adjustments in the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

17

The Company's effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from operations in lower-tax jurisdictions, a benefit from U.S. federal R&D credit, and stock-based compensation deductions.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state and foreign income tax. The Company is currently in different stages of multiple year examinations by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") as well as various state and foreign taxing authorities. In addition, as discussed below, the Company has a pending matter in U.S. tax court regarding fiscal 2011. The Company believes its reserves are more likely than not to be adequate to cover final resolution of all open tax matters.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company received a formal Notice of Deficiency from the IRS for fiscal year 2011, assessing tax and penalties totaling $51.2 million. The Company does not agree with the IRS position. Accordingly, on June 1, 2018, the Company filed a petition with the U.S. tax court relating to the Notice of Deficiency. On August 3, 2018, the IRS filed its response to the Company’s petition, with no changes to its position. In April 2019, the tax court issued an order for the case to begin on or after May 1, 2020.

Although timing of the resolution and/or closure of audits is not certain, the Company does not believe that its gross unrecognized tax benefits would materially change in the next twelve months.

Unrecognized tax benefits of $62.8 million and $60.5 million as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and fiscal year end 2018, respectively, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. Unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in Other non-current liabilities and in the deferred tax accounts in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company's practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.  As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and fiscal year end 2018, the Company had accrued $12.0 million and $11.0 million, respectively, for interest and penalties, which are recorded in Other non-current liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $258.3 million. These unconditional purchase obligations primarily represent open non-cancelable purchase orders for material purchases with the Company’s vendors. Purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancelable without penalty.

Litigation

From time to time, the Company is also involved in litigation arising out of the ordinary course of its business. There are no material legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of the Company's or its subsidiaries' property is subject.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the company in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates. Management believes that, except for the adoption of the new lease standard as discussed in Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, there have been no significant changes during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Trimble focuses on integrating its broad technological and application capabilities to create vertically-focused, system-level solutions that transform how work is done within the industries we serve. The integration of sensors, software, connectivity, and information in our portfolio gives us the unique ability to provide an information model specific to the customer’s workflow. For example, in construction, our strategy is centered on the concept of a “constructible model” that is at the center of our “Connected Construction” solutions, which provide real-time, connected, and cohesive information environments for the design, build, and operational phases of construction projects. In agriculture, we continue to develop “Connected Farm” solutions to optimize operations across the agriculture workflow. In long haul trucking, our “Connected Fleet” solutions provide transportation companies with tools to enhance fuel efficiency, safety, and transparency through connected vehicles and fleets across the enterprise.

Our growth strategy is centered on multiple elements:

• Focus on attractive markets with significant growth and profitability potential - We focus on large markets historically underserved by technology that offer significant potential for long-term revenue growth, profitability, and market leadership. Our core industries such as construction, agriculture, and transportation markets are each multi-trillion dollar global industries that operate in increasingly demanding environments with technology adoption in the early phases relative to other industries. With the emergence of mobile computing capabilities, the increasing technological know-how of end users, and the compelling return on investment to our customers, we believe many of our markets are attractive for substituting Trimble’s technology and solutions in place of traditional operating methods.

• Domain knowledge and technological innovation that benefit a diverse customer base - We have redefined our technological focus from hardware-driven point solutions to integrated work process solutions by developing domain expertise and heavily reinvesting in R&D and acquisitions. We have been spending approximately 15% of revenue over the past two years on R&D and currently have over 1,200 unique patents. We intend to continue to take advantage of our technology portfolio and deep domain knowledge to quickly and cost-effectively deliver specific, targeted solutions to each of the vertical markets we serve. We look for opportunities where the opportunity for technological change is high and that have a requirement for the integration of multiple technologies into complete vertical solutions.

• Increasing focus on software and subscription offerings - Software and subscription services are increasingly important elements of our solutions and are core to our growth strategy. Trimble has an open application programming interface philosophy and open vendor environment, which leads to increased adoption of our software and subscription offerings. We believe that increased recurring revenue from these solutions will provide us with enhanced business visibility over time. Professional services constitute an additional growth channel that helps our customers integrate and optimize the use of our offerings in their environment.

• Geographic expansion with localization strategy - We view international expansion as an important element of our strategy, and we continue to position ourselves in geographic markets that will serve as important sources of future growth. We currently have a physical presence in over 40 countries and distribution channels in over 100 countries.

• Optimized go to market strategies to best access our markets - We utilize vertically-focused distribution channels that leverage domain expertise to best serve the needs of individual markets domestically and abroad. These channels include independent dealers, joint ventures, original equipment manufacturers ("OEM") sales and distribution alliances with key partners, such as CNH Global, Caterpillar, and Nikon, as well as direct sales to end-users, that provide us with broad market reach and localization capabilities to effectively serve our markets.

• Strategic acquisitions - Organic growth continues to be our primary focus, while acquisitions serve to enhance our market position. We acquire businesses that bring domain expertise, technology, products, or distribution capabilities that augment our portfolio and allow us to penetrate existing markets more effectively, or to establish a market beachhead. Our success in targeting and effectively integrating acquisitions is an important aspect of our growth strategy.

Trimble’s focus on these growth drivers has led over time to growth in revenue and profitability as well as an increasingly diversified business model. Software and subscription growth is driving increased recurring revenue, leading to improved visibility in some of our businesses. As our solutions have expanded, our go to market model has also evolved, with a balanced mix between direct, distribution, and OEM customers, and an increasing number of enterprise level customer relationships.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, total revenue increased by $59.4 million compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2018. By geography, North America and Europe were up, and to a lesser extent, rest of world. Asia Pacific was slightly down year over year. We continue to experience a shift in revenue towards a more significant mix of software, recurring revenue and services, driven both by organic growth and acquisitions.

During fiscal 2018, we acquired six businesses, with total cash consideration of $1.8 billion. The largest acquisition was Viewpoint, which we acquired in the third quarter of 2018 with total cash consideration of $1.2 billion. Viewpoint is a provider of construction management software, which integrates a contractor’s financial and resource management to their project operations in the field. The acquisition is highly complementary to our construction technology portfolio and positions us to further our strategy to lead the industry's transformation. With Viewpoint, we offer customers a central workflow platform for delivering integrated end-to-end construction management, while further enabling connectivity across the complete construction lifecycle.

Our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income includes the operating results of the businesses from the date of acquisition.

Seasonality of Business

Construction equipment revenue, within our Buildings and Infrastructure segment, historically has been higher in early spring. Our agricultural equipment revenue, within our Resources and Utilities segment, has historically been the highest in the first quarter, followed by the second quarter, reflecting buying in anticipation of the spring planting season in the Northern hemisphere. However, overall as a company, as a result of diversification of our business across segments and the increased impact of subscription revenues, we may experience less seasonality in the future. Changes in global macroeconomic conditions could also impact the level of seasonality we experience.

Revenue

Total revenue increased$59.4 million or 8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. Excluding unfavorable foreign current impacts of approximately 2%, revenue increased due to the Viewpoint acquisition and, to a lesser extent, organic growth in Buildings and Infrastructure, Transportation, and Resources and Utilities. The increases

21

were partially offset by Geospatial, which was down. We consider organic growth to include revenue from acquisitions completed in, or before, the corresponding prior year period.

By revenue category, for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, product revenue decreased$9.4 million or 2%, service revenue increased $30.4 million or 24%, and subscription revenue increased$38.4 million or 33%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. Product revenue decreased primarily due to weakness in our Geospatial OEM hardware sales in Asia Pacific and, to a lesser extent, prior year higher hardware demand in Transportation due to Electronic Logging Device (ELD) regulatory deadlines. Service and subscription revenue were significantly up due to Viewpoint software maintenance and subscription revenue and, to a lesser extent, organic growth, particularly in Buildings and Infrastructure and Transportation subscription revenue.

Gross Margin

Gross margin varies due to a combination of factors including product mix, pricing, distribution channel, and production volumes.

Gross margin increased by $42.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018, primarily due to the Viewpoint acquisition and increased revenue growth in Buildings and Infrastructure and Transportation. Gross margin as a percentage of total revenue was 54.7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to 53.4% for the corresponding period in fiscal 2018, primarily due to improved revenue mix across all segments, with the exception of Geospatial, which was down due to revenue declines.

Operating Income

Operating income increased by $22.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. Operating income as a percentage of total revenue was 10.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to 8.6% for the corresponding period in fiscal 2018.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the increase in operating income was primarily attributable to organic revenue and gross margin expansion, and operating expense control in Buildings and Infrastructure, including the civil and building construction product families, the Viewpoint acquisition, and lower corporate expense, as the prior year included compensation expense related to the acceleration of acquisition stock options. The operating income increase was partially offset by Geospatial, which was down due to revenue declines.

Research and Development, Sales and Marketing and General and Administrative Expense

Research and development (R&D), sales and marketing (S&M) and general and administrative (G&A) expense are summarized in the following table:

	First Quarter of
	2019			2018
(In millions)
Research and development	$	118.2		$	109.3
Percentage of revenue	15		%	15		%
Sales and marketing	$	127.4		$	122.1
Percentage of revenue	16		%	16		%
General and administrative	$	82.8		$	81.6
Percentage of revenue	10		%	11		%
Total	$	328.4		$	313.0

Overall, R&D, S&M and G&A expense increased by approximately $15.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018.

Research and development expense increased by $8.9 million or 8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. As compared to the prior year, the increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was primarily due to the impact of Viewpoint expense not applicable in the prior corresponding period, and to a lesser extent, increased compensation expense associated with increased headcount, particularly in Transportation, partially offset by favorable foreign currency impacts.

Overall, research and development spending was 15% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018. We believe that the development and introduction of new products are critical to our future success and we expect to continue active development of new products.

22

Sales and marketing expense increased by $5.3 million or 4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. As compared to the prior year, the increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was primarily due to the impact of Viewpoint expense not applicable in the prior corresponding period, partially offset by lower compensation expense and favorable foreign currency impacts.

Overall, spending for sales and marketing was 16% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018.

General and administrative expense increased by $1.2 million, or 1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. As compared to the prior year, the increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was primarily due to the impact of Viewpoint expense not applicable in the prior corresponding period, partially offset by lower compensation and stock based compensation expense, as well as lower consulting costs.

Overall, general and administrative spending was 10% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to 11% in the corresponding period in fiscal 2018.

Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets

	First Quarter of
	2019		2018
(In millions)
Cost of sales	$	24.2	$	23.1
Operating expenses	20.1		17.4
Total amortization expense of purchased intangibles	$	44.3	$	40.5

Total amortization expense of purchased intangibles represented 6% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and 2018. The expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was higher as compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018 due to new acquisitions amortization, primarily the Viewpoint acquisition, which was not applicable in the prior year, partially offset by the expiration of prior acquisitions' amortization.

Non-operating Income (Expense), Net

The components of Non-operating income (expense), net, were as follows:

	First Quarter of
	2019			2018
(In millions)
Interest expense, net	$	(21.9	)	$	(9.5	)
Foreign currency transaction gain (loss), net	(0.9		)	3.7
Income from equity method investments, net	8.8			4.9
Other income, net	2.9			3.4
Total non-operating income (expense), net	$	(11.1	)	$	2.5

Non-operating income (expense), netdecreased by $13.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. The decrease for the first quarter was primarily due to higher interest costs associated with increased debt, and to a lesser extent, fluctuations in foreign currency transaction gain/(loss), partially offset by an increase in joint venture profitability.

Income Tax Provision

Our effective income tax rate, after including discrete items, for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was 17%, compared to 12% in the corresponding period in fiscal 2018, primarily due to a one-time tax benefit from foreign deferred tax adjustments in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Our effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from operations in lower-tax jurisdictions, a benefit from U.S. federal R&D credit and stock-based compensation deductions.

Consolidated operating income	86.3			64.2
Non-operating income (expense), net:	(11.1		)	2.5
Consolidated income before taxes	$	75.2		$	66.7

Buildings and Infrastructure

Buildings and Infrastructure revenue increased by $67.3 million or 30% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. Segment operating income increased$17.9 million or 41% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, excluding unfavorable foreign currency impacts of approximately 3%, revenue increased due to the Viewpoint acquisition, including software maintenance and subscription revenue, and to a lesser extent, organic growth driven primarily by increased software and subscription revenue. Building construction, including e-Builder, experienced organic growth in North America, and to a lesser extent, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Civil engineering and construction experienced organic growth in North America due to software and subscription growth; although hardware machine sales were flat, lower U.S. government demand was primarily offset by channel growth reflecting the relative strength of our distribution network and new product introductions. Segment operating income increased for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to organic revenue growth and gross margin expansion due to higher software and subscription product mix, as well as the Viewpoint acquisition.

Geospatial

Geospatial revenue decreased$13.3 million or 8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. Segment operating income decreased by $7.9 million or 21% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal 2018.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, excluding unfavorable foreign currency impacts of approximately 2%, revenue was down due to weakness in our OEM hardware sales in Asia Pacific. The OEM hardware weakness was partially offset by core geospatial product sales which were up in Europe, partially offset by North America sales which were down. Segment operating income decreased for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to the revenue decline.

Resources and Utilities

Resources and Utilities revenue increased$0.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. Segment operating income decreased by $0.7 million or 1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, excluding unfavorable foreign currency impacts of approximately 3%, revenue was up due to organic precision agriculture hardware sales. The reseller channel in Europe as well as the OEM channel were up. The reseller channel in North America was down due to continuing market uncertainties, including China soybean tariffs on U.S goods. Segment operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was slightly down, due to increased operating expense.

25

Transportation

Transportation revenue increased by $5.3 million or 3% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018. Segment operating income increased$0.8 million or 3% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2019, excluding unfavorable foreign currency impacts of approximately 1%, revenue was up due to continued subscription growth from new and existing transportation and logistics customers due to the ELD regulatory mandate as well as subscription growth of our mapping products. Year over year growth was partially offset by higher hardware demand in the prior year due to ELD regulatory deadlines. Segment operating income and operating income percentage increased for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to revenue growth and gross margin expansion due to higher subscription product mix, partially offset by increased research and development investments.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES

We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, we do not have any interest in, or relationship with, any special purpose entities.

In the normal course of business to facilitate sales of our products, we indemnify other parties, including customers, lessors and parties to other transactions with us, with respect to certain matters. We have agreed to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. From time to time, in connection with divesting some of our businesses or assets, we may also indemnify purchasers for certain matters in the normal course of business, such as breaches of representations, covenants or excluded liabilities. In addition, we entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors, and our bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to our agents.

It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by us under these agreements were not material and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and fiscal year end 2018.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments

As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019, cash and cash equivalents totaled $216.7 million compared to $172.5 million as of fiscal year end 2018.

26

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, together with our borrowings under the commitments for our credit facilities and senior notes, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs, debt service, and planned capital expenditures in the next twelve months.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $147.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to $82.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The increase of $64.7 million was primarily driven by increased net income, after adjusting for non-cash items, and a decrease working capital requirements, particularly inventory purchases and timing of accounts receivable payments.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $9.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to $353.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The decrease of cash used in investing activities of $343.9 million was primarily due to the purchase of e-Builder for $485.5 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of short-term investments in the prior year.

Financing Activities

Cash used by financing activities was $94.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $180.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The decrease in cash provided (used) by financing activities of $274.6 million was primarily driven by the repayment of debt, net of borrowings, as compared to the increase in debt proceeds, net of repayments, in the prior year used to fund the e-Builder acquisition.

Accounts Receivable and Inventory Metrics

	First Quarter of	Fiscal Year End
As of	2019	2018
Accounts receivable days sales outstanding	60	59
Inventory turns per year	5.1	4.9

Accounts receivable days sales outstanding was 60 days as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to 59 days as of the end of fiscal 2018. Our accounts receivable days sales outstanding are calculated based on ending accounts receivable, net, divided by revenue for the corresponding fiscal quarter, times a quarterly average of 91 days. Our inventory turns were 5.1 as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to 4.9 as of the end of fiscal 2018. Our inventory turnover is calculated based on total cost of sales for the most recent twelve months divided by average ending inventory, net, for this same twelve month period.

Debt

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we repaid $72.8 million of debt, net of borrowings. Each of our debt agreements requires us to maintain compliance with certain debt covenants, all of which we were in compliance with at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding our debt.

Non-GAAP Revenue and Operating Income Results

Non-GAAP revenue increased by $59.4 million or 8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal 2018. Excluding unfavorable foreign current impacts of approximately 2%, revenue increased approximately 10% primarily due to the Viewpoint acquisition and to a lesser extent, organic growth in Buildings and Infrastructure, Transportation, and Resources and Utilities. The increases were partially offset by Geospatial revenue declines.

Non-GAAP operating income increased by $11.0 million or 8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal 2018, primarily due to organic growth and operating expense control in Buildings and Infrastructure, including civil and building construction product families, and to a lesser extent, the Viewpoint acquisition, partially offset by Geospatial revenue declines. Non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of total revenue was 19.0% for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and was flat, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2018.

Non-GAAP Explanations

Non-GAAP revenue

We believe this measure helps investors understand the performance of our business as non-GAAP revenue excludes the effects of certain acquired deferred revenue that was written down to fair value in purchase accounting. Management believes that excluding fair value purchase accounting adjustments more closely correlates with the ordinary and ongoing course of the acquired company’s operations and facilitates analysis of revenue growth and business trends.

Non-GAAP gross margin

We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP gross margin as a way of understanding how product mix, pricing decisions and manufacturing costs influence our business. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the effects of certain acquired deferred revenue that was written down to fair value in purchase accounting, restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, and acquisition/divestiture items associated with the acceleration of acquisition stock options from GAAP gross margin. We believe that these adjustments offer investors additional information that may be useful to view trends in our gross margin performance.

29

Non-GAAP operating expenses

We believe this measure is important to investors evaluating our non-GAAP spending in relation to revenue. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and acquisition/divestiture items associated with external and incremental costs resulting directly from merger and acquisition activities such as: legal, due diligence, integration, and other costs including the acceleration of acquisition stock options, adjustment to the fair value of earn-out liabilities, and the effects of certain acquired capitalized commissions that were eliminated in purchase accounting from GAAP operating expenses. We believe that these adjustments offer investors supplemental information to facilitate comparison of our operating expenses to our prior results.

Non-GAAP operating income

We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP operating income trends, which are driven by revenue, gross margin, and spending. Non-GAAP operating income excludes the effects of purchase accounting adjustments to certain acquired deferred revenue and acquired capitalized commissions, restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, and acquisition/divestiture items from GAAP operating income. We believe that these adjustments offer an alternative means for our investors to evaluate current operating performance compared to results of other periods.

Non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net

We believe this measure helps investors evaluate our non-operating income trends. Non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net, excludes acquisition/divestiture gains/losses associated with unusual acquisition related items such as intangible asset impairment charges, gains or losses related to the acquisition or sale of certain businesses and investments, and debt issuance costs. We believe that these exclusions provide investors with a supplemental view of our ongoing financial results.

Non-GAAP income tax provision

We believe that providing investors with the non-GAAP income tax provision is beneficial because it provides for consistent treatment of the excluded items in our non-GAAP presentation.

Non-GAAP net income

This measure provides a supplemental view of net income trends, which are driven by non-GAAP income before taxes and our non-GAAP tax rate. Non-GAAP net income excludes the effects of purchase accounting adjustments to certain acquired deferred revenue and acquired capitalized commissions, restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, acquisition/divestiture items, debt issuance costs, and non-GAAP tax adjustments from GAAP net income. We believe our investors benefit from understanding these adjustments and from an alternative view of our net income performance compared to our past net income performance.

Non-GAAP diluted net income per share

We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP operating performance as reflected in a per share calculation as a way of measuring non-GAAP operating performance by ownership in the company. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share excludes the effects of purchase accounting adjustments to certain acquired deferred revenue and acquired capitalized commissions, restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, acquisition/divestiture items, debt issuance costs, and non-GAAP tax adjustments from GAAP diluted net income per share. We believe that these adjustments offer investors a useful view of our diluted net income per share compared to our past diluted net income per share.

Adjusted EBITDA

We believe that adjusted EBITDA assists investors in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA refers to non-GAAP operating income plus depreciation and income from equity method investments.  We also believe the measure provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

These non-GAAP measures can be used to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance, as well as our performance relative to competitors. We believe some of our investors track our ""core operating performance"" as a means of evaluating our performance in the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of our operations. Core operating performance excludes items that are non-cash, not expected to recur, or not reflective of ongoing financial results. Management also believes that looking at our core operating performance provides a supplemental way to provide consistency in period to period comparisons. Accordingly,

30

management excludes from non-GAAP those items relating to the effects of purchase accounting adjustments to certain acquired deferred revenue and acquired capitalized commissions, restructuring charges, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, acquisition/divestiture items, debt issuance costs, and non-GAAP tax adjustments.

(A). Acquired deferred revenue adjustment. Purchase accounting generally requires us to write-down acquired deferred revenue to fair value. Our GAAP revenue includes the fair value impact from purchase accounting for post contract support and subscriptions contracts assumed in connection with our acquisitions. The non-GAAP adjustment to our revenue is intended to reflect the full amount of such revenue.  We believe this adjustment is useful to investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business and facilitates analysis of revenue growth and business trends.

(B). Restructuring charges. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of sales and operating expenses, restructuring charges recorded are primarily for employee compensation resulting from reductions in employee headcount in connection with our company restructurings. We exclude restructuring charges from our non-GAAP measures because we believe they do not reflect expected future operating expenses, they are not indicative of our core operating performance, and they are not meaningful in comparisons to our past operating performance. We have incurred restructuring expense in each of the periods presented. However the amount incurred can vary significantly based on whether a restructuring has occurred in the period and the timing of headcount reductions.

(C). Amortization of purchased intangible assets. Included in our GAAP presentation of gross margin and operating expenses is amortization of purchased intangible assets. U.S. GAAP accounting requires that intangible assets are recorded at fair value and amortized over their useful lives. Consequently, the timing and size of our acquisitions will cause our operating results to vary from period to period, making a comparison to past performance difficult for investors. This accounting treatment may cause differences when comparing our results to companies that grow internally because the fair value assigned to the intangible assets acquired through acquisition may significantly exceed the equivalent expenses that a company may incur for similar efforts when performed internally. Furthermore, the useful life that we use to amortize our intangible assets over may be substantially different from the time period that an internal growth company incurs and recognizes such expenses. We believe that by excluding the amortization of purchased intangible assets, which primarily represents technology and/or customer relationships already developed, this provides an alternative way for investors to compare our operations pre-acquisition to those post-acquisition and to those of our competitors that have pursued internal growth strategies. However, we note that companies that grow internally will incur costs to develop intangible assets that will be expensed in the period incurred, which may make a direct comparison more difficult.

(D). Stock-based compensation. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of sales and operating expenses, stock-based compensation consists of expenses for employee stock options and awards and purchase rights under our employee stock purchase plan. We exclude stock-based compensation expense from our non-GAAP measures because some investors may view it as not reflective of our core operating performance as it is a non-cash expense. For the first quarter of fiscal years 2019 and 2018, stock-based compensation was allocated as follows:

	First Quarter
(Dollars in millions)	2019		2018
Cost of sales	$	1.3	$	1.1
Research and development	3.5		3.1
Sales and Marketing	2.7		2.3
General and administrative	8.8		10.9
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	16.3	$	17.4

(E). Amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up. The purchase accounting entries associated with our business acquisitions require us to record inventory at its fair value, which is sometimes greater than the previous book value of the inventory. Included in our GAAP presentation, the increase in inventory value is amortized to cost of sales over the period that the related product is sold. We exclude inventory step-up amortization from our non-GAAP measures because it is a non-cash expense that we do not believe is indicative of our ongoing operating results. We further believe that excluding this item from our non-GAAP results is useful to investors in that it allows for period-over-period comparability.

(F). Amortization of acquired capitalized commissions. Purchase accounting generally requires us to eliminate capitalized sales commissions balances as of the acquisition date. Our GAAP sales and marketing expenses generally do not reflect the amortization of these capitalized sales commissions balances. The non-GAAP adjustment to increase our sales and marketing

31

expenses is intended to reflect the full amount of amortization related to such balances as though the acquired companies operated independently in the periods presented.  We believe this adjustment to sales and marketing expenses is useful to investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business. 

(G). Non-GAAP items tax effected. This amount adjusts the provision for income taxes to reflect the effect of the non-GAAP items ( A ) - ( F ) on non-GAAP net income. We believe this information is useful to investors because it provides for consistent treatment of the excluded items in this non-GAAP presentation.

(H). Difference in GAAP and Non-GAAP tax rate. This amount represents the difference between the GAAP and Non-GAAP tax rates applied to the Non-GAAP operating income plus the Non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net. We believe that investors benefit from excluding this amount from our non-GAAP income tax provision because it facilitates a comparison of the non-GAAP tax provision in the current and prior periods.

(I). GAAP and non-GAAP tax rate percentages. These percentages are defined as GAAP income tax provision as a percentage of GAAP income before taxes and non-GAAP income tax provision as a percentage of non-GAAP income before taxes. We believe that investors benefit from a presentation of non-GAAP tax rate percentage as a way of facilitating a comparison to non-GAAP tax rates in prior periods.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We use certain derivative financial instruments to manage these risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. All financial instruments are used in accordance with policies approved by our Board of Directors.

Market Interest Rate Risk

There have been no significant changes to our market interest rate risk assessment. For additional discussion, refer to Item 7A on our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We operate in international markets, which expose us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. Dollar and various foreign currencies, the most significant of which is the Euro.

Historically, the majority of our revenue contracts are denominated in U.S. Dollars, with the most significant exception being Europe, where we invoice primarily in Euro. Additionally, a portion of our expenses, primarily the cost to manufacture, cost of personnel to deliver technical support on our products and professional services, sales and sales support, and research and development, are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily the Euro.

Revenue resulting from selling in local currencies and costs incurred in local currencies are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which can affect our operating income. As exchange rates vary, operating income may differ from expectations. In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, revenue and operating income were negatively impacted by foreign currency exchange rates by $16.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. $3.9 million and operating income was favorably impacted by $2.2 million.

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the short-term impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on cash, debt, certain trade and inter-company receivables, and payables, primarily denominated in Euro, British pound, New Zealand, Australian dollars, Brazilian Real, and Canadian dollars. These contracts reduce the exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rate movements as the gains and losses associated with foreign currency balances are generally offset with the gains and losses on the forward contracts. These instruments are marked to market through earnings every period and generally range from one to two months in maturity. We do not enter into foreign currency forward contracts for trading purposes. We occasionally enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the purchase price of some of our larger business acquisitions. Foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and fiscal year end 2018 are summarized as follows (in millions):

	First Quarter of Fiscal 2019						Fiscal Year End 2018
	Nominal Amount			Fair Value			Nominal Amount			Fair Value
Forward contracts:
Purchased	$	(72.3	)	$	0.4		$	(65.8	)	$	—
Sold	$	139.2		$	(0.5	)	$	144.2		$	0.4
