Note 1: Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business
Ingevity Corporation ("Ingevity," "the Company," "we," "us," or "our") is a leading global manufacturer of specialty chemicals and high performance activated carbon materials. We provide innovative solutions to meet our customers’ unique and demanding requirements through proprietary formulated products. We report in two business segments, Performance Materials and Performance Chemicals. Performance Materials manufactures products in the form of powder, granular, extruded pellets, extruded honeycombs, and activated carbon sheets. Performance Chemicals manufactures products derived from crude tall oil ("CTO") and lignin extracted from the kraft paper making process as well as caprolactone monomers and derivatives derived from cyclohexanone and hydrogen peroxide.
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") interim reporting requirements. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for full financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, collectively referred to as the “Annual Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "2020 Annual Report").
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the condensed consolidated results for the interim periods presented. The consolidated results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions with respect to the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.
Note 2: New Accounting Guidance
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC" or "Codification") is the sole source of authoritative GAAP other than SEC issued rules and regulations that apply only to SEC registrants. The FASB issues an Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") to communicate changes to the Codification. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes." This ASU amends ASC 740 to add, remove, and clarify disclosure requirements related to income taxes. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. We adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." The ASU is intended to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance became effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and we may elect to apply the amendments

prospectively until December 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2021, we have not yet elected any optional expedients provided in the standard. We will apply the accounting relief, if necessary, as relevant contract and hedge accounting relationship modifications are made during the reference rate reform transition period. We do not expect this new standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
Restricted Investment
At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying value of our restricted investment, which is accounted for as held-to-maturity ("HTM") and therefore recorded at amortized costs, was $ 74.4 million and $ 73.6 million, net of an allowance for credit losses of $ 0.6 million and $ 0.9 million, and included cash of $ 2.9 million and $ 2.4 million, respectively. The fair value at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $ 79.8 million and $ 81.5 million, respectively, based on Level 1 inputs.
The following table shows the total amortized cost of our HTM debt securities by credit rating, excluding the allowance for credit losses and cash. The primary factor in our expected credit loss calculation is the composite bond rating. As the rating decreases, the risk present in holding the bond is inherently increased, leading to an increase in expected credit losses.

Debt Obligations
At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying value of finance lease obligations was $ 103.0 million and $ 103.1 million, respectively, and the fair value was $ 121.4 million and $ 127.0 million, respectively. The fair value of all other finance lease obligations approximates their carrying values.
The carrying amount, excluding debt issuance fees, of our variable interest rate long-term debt was $ 342.2 million and $ 353.4 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the outstanding debt based on the variable interest rate of the debt.
At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying value of our fixed rate debt was $ 850.0 million and the fair value was $ 839.0 million and $ 864.1 million, respectively, based on Level 2 inputs.
Contingent Consideration
In connection with the acquisition of certain assets in May 2020, we are contingently obligated to make an additional payment for such assets of up to an aggregate amount of $ 7.0 million. The contingent consideration is payable if certain sales volume targets are achieved prior to December 31, 2024, herein referred to as "Revenue Earn-out."
The fair value of the five-year Revenue Earn-out consideration was $ 0.8 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Any subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability will be recorded in current period earnings as a selling, general, and administrative expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The estimated pre-tax amortization expense may fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Note 8: Financial Instruments and Risk Management
Net Investment Hedges
We have fixed-to-fixed cross-currency interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $ 166.2 million and a maturity date of July 2023. We designated the swaps to hedge a portion of our net investment in a euro functional currency denominated subsidiary against foreign currency fluctuations. These contracts involve the exchange of fixed U.S. dollars with fixed euro interest payments periodically over the life of the contract and an exchange of the notional amount at maturity. This effectively converts a portion of our U.S. dollar denominated fixed-rate debt from a weighted average rate of 3.79 percent to a euro denominated weighted average fixed rate of 1.71 percent. The difference between the fixed interest rate on the U.S. dollar denominated debt compared to euro denominated debt is recorded as interest income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the fixed-to-fixed cross currency interest rate swap was a net asset (liability) of $( 2.2 ) million and $( 8.6 ) million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 , respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we recognized net interest income associated with this financial instrument of $ 0.1 million and $ 0.8 million, respectively.
Cash Flow Hedges
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk Management
We manufacture and sell our products in several countries throughout the world and, thus, we are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To manage the volatility relating to these exposures, we net the exposures on a consolidated basis to take advantage of natural offsets. To manage the remaining exposure, from time to time, we utilize forward currency exchange contracts and zero cost collar option contracts to minimize the volatility to earnings and cash flows resulting from the effect of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates on export sales denominated in foreign currencies (principally the euro). These contracts are generally designated as cash flow hedges. Designated cash flow hedges entered to minimize foreign currency exchange risk of forecasted revenue transactions are recorded to Net sales on the consolidated statement of operations when the forecasted transaction occurs. As of March 31, 2021, there were $ 6.5 million open foreign currency derivative contracts. The fair value of the designated foreign currency hedge contracts was an asset (liability) of $ 0.2 million and $( 0.1 ) at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Commodity Price Risk Management
Certain energy sources used in our manufacturing operations are subject to price volatility caused by weather, supply and demand conditions, economic variables, and other unpredictable factors. This volatility is primarily related to the market pricing of natural gas. To mitigate expected fluctuations in market prices and the volatility to earnings and cash flow resulting from changes to pricing of natural gas purchases, from time to time, we will enter into swap contracts and zero cost collar option contracts and designate these contracts as cash flow hedges. As of March 31, 2021, we had 0.7 million and 1.0 million mmBTUS (millions of British Thermal Units) in aggregate notional volume of outstanding natural gas commodity swap contracts and zero cost collar option contracts, respectively, designated as cash flow hedges. As of March 31, 2021, open

commodity contracts hedge forecasted transactions until February 2022. The fair value of the outstanding designated natural gas commodity hedge contracts as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was a net asset (liability) of zero and $( 0.1 ) million, respectively.
Interest Rate Risk Management
Our policy is to manage interest expense using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. To manage interest rate risk effectively, from time to time, we may enter into interest rate derivative instruments, which can consist of forward starting swaps. In all cases, the notional amount of the interest rate swap agreements is equal to or less than the designated debt being hedged. These instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. Designated interest rate cash flow hedge gains or losses are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") and are recognized in "Interest expense, net" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the remaining maturity of the underlying debt.
As of March 31, 2021, we have floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $ 166.2 million to manage the variability of cash flows in the interest rate payments associated with our existing LIBOR-based interest payments, effectively converting $ 166.2 million of our floating rate debt to a fixed rate. In accordance with the terms of this instrument, we receive floating rate interest payments based upon three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR and in return are obligated to pay interest at a fixed rate of 3.79 percent until July 2023. The fair value of the interest rate swap was an asset (liability) of $( 7.5 ) million and $( 8.9 ) million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Debt Covenants
Our indentures contain certain customary covenants (including covenants limiting Ingevity's and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to grant or permit liens on certain property securing debt, declare or pay dividends, make distributions on or repurchase or redeem capital stock, make investments in unrestricted subsidiaries, engage in sale and lease-back transactions, and engage in a consolidation or merger, or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of our and our restricted subsidiaries, taken as a whole) and events of default (subject in certain cases to customary exceptions, as well as grace and cure periods). The occurrence of an event of default under the 2018 Notes or 2020 Notes could result in the acceleration of the notes of such series and could cause a cross-default resulting in the acceleration of other indebtedness of Ingevity and its subsidiaries, including the other series. We were in compliance with all covenants under the indentures as of March 31, 2021.
The credit agreement governing our revolving credit facility and 2017 term loan contain customary default provisions, including defaults for non-payment, breach of representations and warranties, insolvency, non-compliance with covenants and cross-defaults to other material indebtedness. The occurrence of an uncured event of default under the credit agreement could result in all loans and other obligations becoming immediately due and payable and our revolving credit facility and term loan facilities being terminated. The credit agreement also contains certain customer covenants, including financial covenants. The revolving credit facility financial covenants require Ingevity to maintain on a consolidated basis a maximum total net leverage ratio of 4.0 to 1.0 (which may be increased to 4.5 to 1.0 under certain circumstances) and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0 to 1.0. Additionally, the 2017 term loan financial covenants require Ingevity to maintain on a consolidated basis a maximum total gross leverage ratio of 4.0 to 1.0 (which may be increased to 4.5 to 1.0 under certain circumstances) and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0 to 1.0. Our actual gross and net leverage for the four consecutive quarters ended March 31, 2021 were 2.9 and 2.4 , respectively, and our actual interest coverage for the four consecutive quarters ended March 31, 2021 was 12.2 . We were in compliance with all covenants at March 31, 2021.

Business transformation initiative costs
In the first quarter of 2020, we embarked upon a business transformation initiative that includes the implementation of an upgraded enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system. This new ERP system will equip our employees with standardized processes and secure integrated technology that enable us to better understand and meet our customers' needs and compete in the marketplace. We expect this business transformation initiative and related ERP implementation to be a complex, multi-year project. It requires the integration of the new ERP system with multiple new and existing information systems and business processes, in order to maintain the accuracy of our books and records and to provide our management team with real-time information important to the operation of our business. Such an implementation initiative is a major financial undertaking and will require substantial time and attention of management and key employees. Costs incurred, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, of $ 3.8 million and $ 0.3 million, respectively, represent costs directly associated with the business transformation initiative that, in accordance with GAAP, cannot be capitalized. Over the course of this initiative, we anticipate incurring approximately $ 60 - 70 million of total costs, which includes $ 30 - 35 million of non-capitalizable costs, $ 18 - 20 million of which we expect to be incurred in 2021.

Note 13: Income Taxes
The effective tax rates, including discrete items, were as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31,
2021 2020
Effective tax rate 21.2 % 17.9 %
We determine our interim tax provision using an Estimated Annual Effective Tax Rate methodology (“EAETR”). The EAETR is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income, exclusive of discrete items. The tax effects of discrete items are then included to arrive at the total reported interim tax provision.
The determination of the EAETR is based upon a number of estimates, including the estimated annual pre-tax ordinary income in each tax jurisdiction in which we operate. As our projections of ordinary income change throughout the year, the EAETR will change period-to-period. The tax effects of discrete items are recognized in the tax provision in the period they occur. Depending on various factors, such as the item’s significance in relation to total income and the rate of tax applicable in the jurisdiction to which it relates, discrete items in any quarter may materially impact the reported effective tax rate. As a global enterprise, our tax expense may be impacted by changes in tax rates or laws, the finalization of tax audits and reviews, as well as other factors. As such, there may be significant volatility in interim tax provisions.
The below table provides a reconciliation between our reported effective tax rates and the EAETR.

(2) Costs incurred to integrate the Perstorp Capa business into our Performance Chemicals segment.
(3) Increase in EAETR for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to March 31, 2020, is due to an overall increase and a change in the mix of forecasted earnings in various tax jurisdictions with varying rates. This increase in earnings was partially offset by an increased benefit associated with foreign-derived intangible income deduction. Increase limitation associated with the officer’s compensation as well as a reduced benefit associated with the generation of state tax credits further contributed to the higher rate.
At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had deferred tax assets of $ 8.0 million and $ 8.4 million, respectively, resulting from certain historical net operating losses from our Brazilian operations and U.S. state tax credits for which a valuation allowance has been established. The ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which these net operating losses and tax credits are available to be used. In evaluating the realizability of these deferred tax assets, we consider projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making our assessment. As of March 31, 2021, we cannot objectively assert that these deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized and therefore we have maintained a valuation allowance. We intend to continue maintaining a valuation allowance on these deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances. A release of all or a portion of the valuation allowance could be possible, if we determine that sufficient positive

INGEVITY CORPORATION
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2021
(Unaudited)
evidence becomes available to allow us to reach a conclusion that the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. A release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a reduction to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change based on the level of profitability that we are able to actually achieve.
