Thoughts on Modeling FY 2018 Full-year constant currency Net sales growth within our annual medium term target of 200 to 300 bps above US IT, coming in at the mid-to-low end of the range 1H/2H sales ~ in line with historical average split of 48-49 / 51-52% Currency tailwinds expected at an annual average rate of ~ 15 bps Adjusted EBITDA within full-year annual target of high 7 s to 8% Depreciation and Amortization expected to be ~$8MM higher than 2017 Acquisition related intangibles expected to be roughly $185MM Annual book interest expected to be in the range of $156MM - $158MM Equity-based compensation expected to be ~ $7MM lower than 2017 Non-GAAP effective tax rate expected to be between 26% to 27% Non-GAAP EPS expected to grow ~ 250-300 bps faster than Non-GAAP net income 21

Modeling Q1 and FY 2018 Cash Flows Q1 '18: Sales ~ in-line with typical seasonality below our fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA growth less than full year growth Non-GAAP EPS growth within full year growth range Cash flow: Annual Free Cash Flow at the low end of new 'rule of thumb' run rate post-tax cuts of 3 ¾% to 4 ¼% of net sales Capital expenditures slightly above ~0.5% of Net sales on an annual basis Achieve Cash Conversion Cycle within target range of high teens to low 20s 22
