    MELROSE INDUSTRIES PLC AUDITED RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 On 20 February 2018 Melrose Industries PLC announced its audited results, which are reported under IFRS, for the year ended 31 December 2017, details of which are set out in this document. Underlying1 Statutory £m results results Revenue 2,092.2 2,092.2 Operating profit/(loss) 278.4 (6.9) Profit/(loss) before tax 257.7 (27.6) Diluted earnings per share 9.8p (1.2)p Highlights • Nortek underlying1 results are better on all measures; revenue growth is 2%2 with increased momentum in the second half of the year when sales were up 4%2, the operating margin is 15.2%, operating profit is up 52%2 on last year and up 67%2 on the last full year prior to acquisition • The underlying1 results are a key measure of performance and are shown alongside the statutory results. As 2017 was the first full year of Nortek ownership by Melrose, significant restructuring costs were incurred and, following the structural decline of the core gas turbine market for Brush, its balance sheet value has been reduced to £300 million. These two items are included in the adjustments made between statutory and underlying1 results • Consultations with employees have commenced to implement a restructuring plan which, when complete, will position Brush well for the future • Cash generation is strong, with a record performance from Nortek. Net debt was £572 million representing leverage of 1.9x3 underlying1 EBITDA4, significantly lower than at the time of the Nortek acquisition only sixteen months previously
