3 GROUP PERFORMANCE REVIEW Good early progress has been made across the Group in the first half. The new three-divisional structure has been implemented successfully along with senior management changes in both Performance Materials and Wireless & Thermal Systems. The new structure is already delivering results and there are clear plans in place to continue driving improved operating and commercial performance across the Group. We successfully completed the rights issue in April, enabling the Group to reduce its borrowings under the existing revolving credit facilities. This significantly strengthened the Group s financial position as a result, leaving Laird better placed to take advantage of the significant growth opportunities that exist in our end markets. Revenue Reported revenue increased by 25% to 440.5m (2016: 352.5m), driven by growth in CVS and Performance Materials and positive currency effects. On an organic constant currency basis, revenue increased by 10%. Underlying operating profit /operating margin Underlying operating profit increased 40% to 29.6m (2016: 21.1m) with operating margin increasing to 6.7% (2016: 6.0%). The revenue and underlying operating profit of the divisions and the Group as a whole is shown in the table below: 6 months to 30 June PM CVS WTS Unallocated Total 2017 Revenue ( m) Underlying operating profit ( m) (2.2) Operating margin (%) 8.8% 4.8% 8.0% (0.5)% 6.7% 2016 Revenue ( m) Underlying operating profit ( m) (3.8) Operating margin (%) 8.4% 5.0% 7.2% (1.1)% 6.0% Underlying profit before tax /profit before tax Underlying profit before tax increased 47% to 24.1m (2016: 16.4m). Reported profit before tax was 19.4m (2016: 6.2m). Dividend The Board believes in balancing returns to shareholders with investment in the business to support future growth. As stated at the final results in February 2017, the Board s intention was to resume dividends in 2017 based on a dividend per share that is covered approximately three times by full year underlying earnings per share. Thereafter, consistent with an improvement in earnings and cash generation in 2018 and beyond, and subject to prevailing market conditions, the Board expects to reduce dividend cover towards two times over the medium term. In line with this revised dividend policy, an interim dividend of 1.13p is declared at the half year. 3
4 DIVISIONAL REVIEW Performance Materials 6 months to 30 June Change m m Revenue % Underlying operating profit % Operating margin 8.8% 8.4% Performance Materials revenue increased 21% to 204.7m (2016: 169.5m). Organic constant currency revenue increased by 7% versus the same period last year with Precision Metals, Magnetic and Ceramic products and Thermal materials all contributing to the increase. Underlying operating profit was up 27% at 18.0m (2016: 14.2m) and the operating margin increased to 8.8% (2016: 8.4%) driven principally by Precision Metals. The remaining businesses within the division also performed in line with expectations. The actions taken to stabilise and improve the division s commercial and operational performance are already delivering positive results. This provides confidence in the improving delivery of operational performance in the second half of the year and for the ramp-up in volumes for the smartphone cycle. Connected Vehicle Solutions 6 months to 30 June Change m m Revenue % Underlying operating profit % Operating margin 4.8% 5.0% Connected Vehicle Solutions revenue increased significantly by 39% to 155.6m (2016: 112.3m). Organic revenue at constant currency increased by 21% compared to the same period last year. This reflects the continued high demand for our products and solutions in the connected automotive market where content requirements continue to grow and our technology is well regarded. Antenna revenues grew in the first half and Smart Device Integration products (compensers, USB hubs and wireless charging units) showed strong growth in the period across our major customers. The division exited our loss-making business in Brazil in the first half of This resulted in a 3.0m exceptional charge which was made up of 2.8m of asset write downs and 0.2m of cash cost in the period. Underlying operating profit was up 32% at 7.4m (2016: 5.6m) with underlying operating margin falling slightly given the continued investment in the business, particularly in engineering capability. Year to date, the division has won contracts valued at over $400m which are expected to generate revenue from 2019 to
5 Wireless and Thermal Systems 6 months to 30 June Change m m Revenue % Underlying operating profit % Operating margin 8.0% 7.2% Wireless and Thermal Systems revenue increased 13% to 80.2m (2016: 70.7m). Organic revenue at constant currency was flat year-on-year. Within this, Connectivity achieved modest growth, but this was offset by a continuing weak market for the Controls business which had a strong H1 comparator last year. Underlying operating profit was up 25% at 6.4m (2016: 5.1m) and the operating margin increased to 8.0% (2016: 7.2%), reflecting benefits from the divisional restructuring and operating model redesign. The division continues to refocus its efforts on high growth opportunities where we have strong technology positions. FINANCE REVIEW Profit before tax Statutory profit before tax was 19.4m (2016: 6.2m) for the first half of the year. The following sections break down the movement into its component parts. Underlying operating profit The table below provides further analysis of the underlying operating profit. The gross profit percentage of 33.0% is lower year on year, reflecting a full period of ownership of Novero this year along with the recategorisation of certain overheads from SG&A to cost of sales. SG&A increased year on year primarily due to translation of costs into sterling offset by the movement of certain overheads into cost of sales. The increase in R&D in the first half to 37.7m (8.6% of revenue), up from 31.8m in 2016 (9.0% of revenue) is also primarily driven by the translation of those costs into sterling and partly due to continued investment in future growth opportunities. Net capitalised development was lower than last year. Underlying operating margin increased to 6.7% (2016: 6.0%). 6 months to 30 June 2017 m Revenue Cost of sales (295.1) (227.0) Gross profit Gross margin % 33.0% 35.6% 2016 m SG&A (82.8) (78.5) Gross R&D (37.7) (31.8) Net capitalised development Underlying operating profit Underlying operating margin 6.7% 6.0% 5
6 Underlying profit before tax Underlying profit before tax increased 47% to 24.1m (2016: 16.4m). This measure excludes exceptional items, amortisation of acquired intangible assets and fair value movements on financial instruments. Exceptional items There was a net exceptional charge of 0.4m (2016: 3.4m charge) in the period as shown in the table below: 6 months to 30 June 2017 m Restructuring costs (2.6) - Acquisition related credit m Change in valuation of options in respect of Model Solution 0.9 (3.4) Covenant waiver fees (0.1) - Total exceptional items (0.4) (3.4) Restructuring costs related to the closure of the CVS site in Brazil and charges associated with the reorganisation of the business into three divisions, partially offset by a credit relating to the re-design of our operating model. The acquisition related credit relates to a settlement with the previous owner of Novero. Amortisation of acquired intangible assets Total amortisation of acquired intangible assets was 7.0m, up from 6.6m in the first half of Finance costs Finance costs, before fair value movements, were 5.5m (2016: 4.7m). Interest cover was 7.4 times (2016: 8.6 times). Fair value movements on financial instruments resulted in a gain of 2.7m (2016: loss of 0.2m). Taxation The underlying tax charge on underlying profit before tax is equivalent to an average tax rate of 27.4% (2016: 19.9%), which is our best estimate of the outcome for the 2017 full year. The increase versus last year is due to a different mix of profits, with less profit in lower tax jurisdictions. Profit after tax The profit after tax for the period was 14.0m (2016: 2.3m) reflecting the movements above. Underlying earnings per share Continuing underlying basic earnings per share increased 17% to 4.1p (2016: 3.5p). Underlying earnings are based on underlying profit less underlying tax and exclude deferred tax on acquired intangible assets, goodwill and US capitalised development costs. The average number of shares in issue in the first half of 2017 was 417.1m, compared with 350.6m in the first half of 2016 (restated for the bonus element of the rights issue). Basic earnings per share Basic earnings per share increased to 3.3p, up from 0.6p last year. 6
7 Cash flow In the first half of 2017, Laird produced an operating cash flow of 20.8m (2016: 25.4m), representing cash conversion of 70% (2016: 120%). Cash conversion is defined as operating cash flow as a proportion of underlying operating profit. Reported cash generated from operations was 31.8m (2016: 44.8m). H m H m Underlying EBITDA (Increase)/decrease in working capital (1.5) 13.1 Capitalised development costs (10.6) (10.0) Capital expenditure less disposals (16.9) (16.0) Operating cash flow Exceptional costs (16.5) (6.6) Net finance costs (6.0) (4.5) Taxation (7.4) (7.9) Free cash flow pre dividend (9.1) 6.4 Dividends - - Free cash flow post dividend (9.1) 6.4 Acquisitions - (40.2) Net proceeds from issue of equity Other (1.0) (3.1) Decrease/(increase) in net borrowings before exchange movement (36.7) Exchange translation movement 3.8 (26.4) Decrease/(increase) in net borrowings since 31 December 2016/ (63.1) Underlying EBITDA improved to 49.8m in the period, up from 38.3m. However, this was more than offset by a small working capital outflow in the period against the benefit of an inflow in the first half last year. The small outflow was driven by an increase in inventory as the divisions build stock ahead of the higher revenue in the second half of the year. In addition, there were small increases in investment in both capital expenditure and capitalised development in the period, in order to drive future growth. As a result, operating cash flow reduced by 18% to 20.8m. Cash outflows from exceptional costs at 16.5m relate to the costs of exiting sites as part of the redesign of the operating model, costs associated with the reorganisation into three divisions and the closure of the business in Brazil. In addition, the fees associated with the covenant waiver were paid in the first half. The vast majority of these exceptional cash flows had been provided for in prior years. Net borrowings and debt facilities Overall, net borrowings decreased during the half year by 169m to 175m, largely due to the proceeds from the successful completion of the rights issue. This, combined with the improvement in operating profit, led to a reduction in the net debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.5 times compared to 3.2 times at the year-end 31 December A cornerstone of our financial planning is to ensure that we maintain committed loan finance which provides sufficient headroom above expected borrowing requirements and has a significant proportion with terms that exceed one year. Our committed bilateral revolving credit facilities total 195m, and will 7
8 not expire until In addition, we have total US Private Placement notes and Schuldschein loans of US Dollar $140m and Euro 77m outstanding. Covenants A key consideration for financial planning is to maintain sufficient headroom between borrowings and the ceiling set by the associated covenants. Our bank facilities, Schuldschein and US Private Placement loan notes contain two principal financial covenants: net debt / EBITDA (earnings before exceptional items, interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) and interest cover. We are operating comfortably within our covenants. For the period ended 30 June 2017, net debt was 1.5 times EBITDA, against the maximum permitted of 3.5 times. Interest cover was 7.4 times, against the minimum requirement of 3.0 times. The expected headroom is routinely estimated against the covenants and the sensitivity to a number of scenarios is tested to ensure ongoing compliance. We do not anticipate approaching our covenant limits in the foreseeable future. Currencies in 2017 The average and period-end exchange rates are set out in note 4. As a global business the Group is exposed to a number of foreign currencies. Whilst a significant proportion of our revenue is denominated in US Dollars, our costs are often in the local currency of the countries in which we operate. This leads to a mismatch and therefore an exposure to currency movements on a transactional basis. The table below shows the breakdown of our principal currency exposures for the 6 months ended 30 June Currency Sales Costs RMB 10% 30% EUR 20% 22% GBP 0% 3% KRW 2% 2% USD 66% 37% Other 2% 6% Total 100% 100% There is also the translation impact in converting profits into the Group s reporting currency (sterling); each 1 cent appreciation of the US Dollar against sterling approximates to an annual increase in operating profit of 0.4m. Principal Risks We operate globally in varied markets. The principal risks and uncertainties that are or may be faced are disclosed in the 2016 Annual Report, and we expect them to continue to be relevant for the remaining six months of the year. The risks set out in the 2016 Annual Report include the competitive markets in which we operate, macroeconomic and political factors, exposure to increases in labour costs in China, world commodity 8
9 prices, and currency fluctuations, the requirement to meet increasingly stringent environmental laws and regulations, and risks related to brand management, our products, the supply chain and operational continuity. Total Equity Total equity at 30 June 2017 was 533.9m (30 June 2016: 450.9m). The reconciliation of total equity is set out in the Group statement of changes in equity.

10 INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO LAIRD PLC We have been engaged by the Company to review the condensed set of financial statements in the interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2017 which comprises the Group income statement, Group statement of comprehensive income, Group statement of changes in equity, Group statement of financial position, Group cash flow statement and the related notes 1 to 11 and appendix. We have read the other information contained in the interim report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements. This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with guidance contained in International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board. Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company those matters we are required to state to it in an independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed. Directors' responsibilities The interim report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the interim report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority. As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this interim report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the interim report based on our review. Scope of review We conducted our review in accordance with ISRE (UK and Ireland) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. 10
11 Conclusion Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2017 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is based on the profit for the period divided by the daily average of the number of shares in issue during the period. Diluted earnings per share is based on the same profit but with the number of shares increased to reflect the daily average effect of relevant share options granted but not yet exercised where performance conditions have been met and shares are contingently issuable.

22 Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements 6 Underlying results and taxation Explanatory note: Underlying profit and earnings per share are shown as the Board considers them to be relevant guides to the performance of the Group. See appendix for further details. Underlying tax is stated before exceptional items, deferred tax on the amortisation of acquired intangible assets, goodwill and US capitalised development costs, the gain or loss on disposal of businesses and the impact arising from the fair valuation of financial instruments. The deferred tax impact of short-term losses and current tax on the amortisation of acquired intangible assets and impairment of goodwill are included in the calculation of underlying tax. The tax charge for the period was based on the estimated tax rate for the full year. The underlying tax charge for the period is equivalent to 27.4% (June 2016: 19.9%, December 2016: 24.9%) of underlying profit before tax. 6 months 6 months 12 months to to to 30 June 30 June 31 Dec m m m Profit Profit before amortisation of acquired intangible assets and exceptional items Finance income Finance costs (5.7) (4.9) (11.1) Other finance revenue pension Underlying profit before tax Tax The underlying tax charge is calculated as follows: Underlying tax Underlying tax rate 27.4% 19.9% 24.9% Tax credit on exceptional items (0.5) - (3.6) Deferred tax on goodwill, acquired intangible assets and US capitalised development costs (1.1) 1.8 (19.4) Exceptional US tax loss movement /(recognition) 0.4 (1.2) (1.2) Total tax charge (11.5) Pence Pence Pence (restated) (restated) Earnings per share* Underlying earnings per share - basic Underlying earnings per share - diluted * attributable to equity shareholders of the parent company Prior period underlying earnings per share has been restated for the 2017 rights issue. 22

24 Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements 8 Financial instruments Explanatory note: We hold a variety of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments. The Group's derivative financial instruments are forward foreign exchange contracts to manage foreign exchange exposures and both put and call options relating to the non-controlling interest (NCI) in Model Solution (acquired April 2014). The put option is a liability that may become payable in relation to the NCI in Model Solution. The call option is a financial asset that the Group has over the NCI in Model Solution. Non-derivative financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, and non-current and current trade and other receivables, borrowings and trade and other payables. The tables below set out a comparison between book values and fair values of financial instruments as at 30 June 2017 and 31 December 2016: Financial assets The financial assets of the Group comprised: As at 30 June 2017 As at 31 December 2016 Book values Book values m m Current Trade and other receivables Derivative financial instruments Cash and cash equivalents Non-current Derivative financial instruments call option Other non-current receivables Financial liabilities The financial liabilities of the Group comprised: As at 30 June 2017 As at 31 December 2016 Book values Book values m m Current Borrowings and overdrafts Derivative financial instruments Trade and other payables Non-current Borrowings Other non-current liabilities Derivative financial instruments put option US Private Placement loans with a book value of 94.4m (December 2016: 97.8m) have an estimated fair value of 95.7m (December 2016: 98.5m) which has been calculated by discounting cash flows at prevailing coupon rates as at 30 June The change in balance since December 2016 consists of the gain on retranslation to 30 June 2017 exchange rates, which has been recognised in the Group statement of comprehensive income. There are no material differences between fair value and book value on any of the other financial instruments. 24
25 Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements 8 Financial instruments (continued) Derivative financial instruments The Group holds forward foreign exchange contracts to manage foreign exchange exposures. The forward contracts have a principal value of 41.1m (June 2016: 53.9m, December 2016: 92.8m) and are mainly denominated in US dollars and Chinese Renminbi. They are revalued at the balance sheet date using closing exchange rates. These contracts have not been designated as cash flow hedges and the increase in fair value during 2017 of 2.7m (June 2016: 0.2m decrease, December 2016: 1.9m decrease) has been taken to the income statement. These are Level 2 derivative financial instruments and there has been no movement between levels during the period. Fair values are calculated using mark-to-market methodology. Financial liability - put option The financial liability that may become payable under a put option in respect of the non-controlling interest in Model Solution is recognised at a fair value of 31.3m (June 2016: 37.4m, December 2016: 31.0m) within non-current liabilities. The increase in fair value during 2017 of 0.3m (June 2016: 3.4m increase, December 2016: 3.0m decrease) has been taken to the income statement. The exercise price for the put option will be calculated by dividing the EBITDA of Model Solution for the year to 31 March 2019 by EBITDA for the year ended 31 December 2015 and applying this factor against a base price of KRW 42.2bn ( 28.7m). The key assumptions in estimating the fair value are an EBITDA projection for Model Solution for the year to 31 December 2019 and a discount rate of 3.22% applied at 30 June 2017 (June 2016: 2.67%, December 2016: 2.6%). The financial liability is sensitive to changes in these assumptions. For example a 10% increase in EBITDA for the year to 31 December 2019 would result in an increase in the financial liability of 3.1m, while a 10% decrease would result in a decrease in the financial liability of 3.2m. An increase in the discount rate by 1% would result in a decrease in the financial liability of 0.9m, while a decrease in the discount rate by 1% would result in an increase in the financial liability of 0.9m. In accordance with the fair value hierarchy under IFRS 13, the put option is classified as a Level 3 derivative financial instrument. The fair value of the put option is determined by reference to the terms in the underlying agreement. It is calculated at each period end by estimating a range of potential exercise prices for the option and applying our estimate of the weighted average probabilities to each. Financial asset - call option There is a financial asset recognised of 2.7m (June 2016: 0.7m, December 2016: 1.5m) within noncurrent assets in respect of the call option that the Group has over the non-controlling interest in Model Solution. The increase in the fair value of 1.2m (June 2016, nil, December 2016: 0.8m increase) has been taken to the income statement. The call option can be exercised by the Group on 31 May 2018, 2019 or The exercise price for the call option will be calculated by dividing the EBITDA of Model Solution for the year to 31 December prior to the date of exercise of the call option by EBITDA for the year ended 31 December 2015 and applying this factor against a base price of KRW 42.2bn ( 28.7m). The key assumptions in estimating the fair value are a range of EBITDA projections for Model Solution for the years to the end of the financial month prior to the date of exercise of the call option and a discount rate being a Korean risk free rate over the period to exercise, determined at 30 June
26 Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements 8 Financial instruments (continued) Financial asset - call option (continued) The financial asset is sensitive to changes in this assumption. For example a 10% increase in the base EBITDA scenario would result in a decrease in the financial asset of 0.5m, while a 10% decrease would result in an increase in the financial asset of 0.5m. In accordance with the fair value hierarchy under IFRS 13, the call option is classified as a Level 3 derivative financial instrument. The fair value of the call option is determined by reference to the terms in the underlying agreement. It is calculated at each period end using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the share price and expected exercise price, and our estimate of the likelihood of exercising the option at each date. 26
