Cautionary Statement
Certain statements included herein contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws about KEMET
Corporation's (the "Company") financial condition and results of operations that are based on management's current expectations,
estimates, and projections about the markets in which the Company operates, as well as management's beliefs and assumptions.
Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," variations of such words, and other similar expressions are
intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve
certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ
materially from what is expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management's judgment only as of the date hereof. The
Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of these forward-looking statements to reflect new information, future
events or otherwise.
Factors that may cause the actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-
looking statements include, but are not necessarily limited to the following: (i) adverse economic conditions could impact our ability
to realize operating plans if the demand for our products declines, and such conditions could adversely affect our liquidity and ability
to continue to operate; (ii) continued net losses could impact our ability to realize current operating plans and could materially
adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to continue to operate; (iii) adverse economic conditions could cause the write down of
long-lived assets or goodwill; (iv) an increase in the cost or a decrease in the availability of our principal or single-sourced
purchased materials; (v) changes in the competitive environment; (vi) uncertainty of the timing of customer product qualifications in
heavily regulated industries; (vii) economic, political, or regulatory changes in the countries in which we operate; (viii) difficulties,
delays or unexpected costs in completing the restructuring plans; (ix) equity method investment in NEC TOKIN exposes us to a
variety of risks; (x) possible acquisition of NEC TOKIN may not achieve all of the anticipated results; (xi) acquisitions and other
strategic transactions expose us to a variety of risks; (xii) our business could be negatively impacted by increased regulatory
scrutiny and litigation; (xiii) inability to attract, train and retain effective employees and management; (xiv) inability to develop
innovative products to maintain customer relationships and offset potential price erosion in older products; (xv) exposure to claims
alleging product defects; (xvi) the impact of laws and regulations that apply to our business, including those relating to
environmental matters; (xvii) the impact of international laws relating to trade, export controls and foreign corrupt practices;
(xviii) volatility of financial and credit markets affecting our access to capital; (xix) the need to reduce the total costs of our products
to remain competitive; (xx) potential limitation on the use of net operating losses to offset possible future taxable income;
(xxi) restrictions in our debt agreements that limit our flexibility in operating our business; (xxii) failure of our information technology
systems to function properly or our failure to control unauthorized access to our systems may cause business disruptions;
(xxiii) additional exercise of the warrant by K Equity which could potentially result in the existence of a significant stockholder who
could seek to influence our corporate decisions; and (xxiv) fluctuation in distributor sales could adversely affect our results of
operations.

NEC TOKIN UPDATE
• Since the beginning of the equity investment KEMET have had the intention of
acquiring the remaining interest for a 100% stake.
• Beginning in March 2014, NT was notified that it was being investigated by
numerous government authorities for alleged antitrust violations dating back
as early as 2002. The uncertain impact of the investigations and related civil
litigation on NT’s financial results has caused a delay in KEMET’s completion
of the NT acquisition.
• Recent NT settlements with regulators and class-action plaintiffs have provided
clarity and removed significant obstacles to the completion of the transaction.
Several jurisdictions have yet to provide their conclusions.
• KEMET and NEC remain in discussion concerning the terms of the acquisition.
It is anticipated that the final structure and mechanics of this transaction will be
announced with the completion of a definitive agreement. It may vary from the
existing agreement between the parties.
• Current expectation still remains a closing by the end of KEMET’s current fiscal
year.
NEC TOKIN Acquisition Update
• Predictable and consistent operating margins
• Profitable (excluding restructuring items)
• Reliable
• Emotional favorite of our customers
• Cash flow generation
• Anticipating announcement of NEC TOKIN acquisition early 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Included in this presentation are certain non-GAAP financial measures designed to complement the financial information presented
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America because management believes such
measures are useful to investors for the reasons described below.
Adjusted gross margin
Adjusted gross margin represents net sales less cost of sales excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative
reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted gross margin to facilitate our analysis and
understanding of our business operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this
presentation which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends
in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted gross margin is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental
way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted gross margin should not be considered as an
alternative to gross margin or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses
Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses represents selling, general and administrative expenses excluding
adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted
selling, general and administrative expenses to facilitate our analysis and understanding of our business operations by excluding
the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation which might otherwise make comparisons of
our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that
Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand
the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses should not be
considered as an alternative to selling, general and administrative expenses or any other performance measure derived in
accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted operating income (loss)
Adjusted operating income (loss) represents operating income (loss), excluding adjustments which are outlined in the quantitative
reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted operating income to facilitate our analysis and
understanding of our business operations by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this
presentation which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult and obscure trends
in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted operating income is useful to investors to provide a supplemental way
to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate
income from ongoing business operations. Adjusted operating income should not be considered as an alternative to operating loss
or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EPS
Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EPS represent net income (loss) and EPS, excluding adjustments which are more
specifically outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation. Management uses Adjusted net income
(loss) and Adjusted EPS to evaluate the Company's operating performance by excluding the items outlined in the quantitative
reconciliation provided earlier in this presentation which might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior
periods more difficult and obscure trends in ongoing operations. The Company believes that Adjusted net income (loss) and
Adjusted EPS are useful to investors because they provide a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating
performance of the Company and allows investors to monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from
ongoing business operations. Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EPS should not be considered as alternatives to net
income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss before income tax expense (benefit), interest expense, net, and depreciation and amortization
expense, excluding adjustments which are more specifically outlined in the quantitative reconciliation provided earlier in this
presentation. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance and ability to service debt. We also
present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe such measure is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other
interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate supplemental measure of debt service capacity, because cash expenditures on
interest are, by definition, available to pay interest, and tax expense is inversely correlated to interest expense because tax expense
goes down as deductible interest expense goes up; depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges. The other items excluded
from Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in order to better reflect our continuing operations.
In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this
presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be
unaffected by these types of adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and
should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in
accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
52
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Continued
Our Adjusted EBITDA measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a
substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
• it does not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
• it does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal
payment on our debt;
• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often
have to be replaced in the future, and our Adjusted EBITDA measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such
replacements;
• it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;
• it does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our
ongoing operations;
• it does not reflect limitations on or costs related to transferring earnings from our subsidiaries to us; and
• other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a
comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash
available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our
obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted
EBITDA only supplementally.
