To Our Fellow
Shareholders
Prior to joining Diebold Nixdorf as chief executive
officer last year, I knew of the company given
my previous experience in the financial services
and technology industries. I was attracted by the
company’s many strengths: a great franchise, loyal
customers, durable top-line revenue, substantial
scale to offer benefits our competitors can’t, quality
solutions and talented people. One thing I knew
coming into the role — which was quickly reinforced
for me after meeting with customers, employees and
shareholders — was that meaningful change was
needed to build a solid foundation for the company
to achieve sustainable success.
In 2018, our company faced a number of challenges.
Our performance fell well short of our shareholders’
and our own expectations. One of my first actions was
to introduce a plan — DN Now — to set us up for long-
term success. While we navigated some very difficult
situations, we were able to achieve a number of important
accomplishments, especially in the latter part of the year.
I am encouraged by the foundation we are building for
a stronger, brighter future.
This letter will recap the important work we’ve done
through 2018, outline the plans we have in place to
strengthen the company, and explain the steps we’re
taking to improve operational performance, increase
competitiveness and put ourselves in a position to
Shape the Future of Diebold Nixdorf.
GERRARD SCHMID, President and Chief Executive Officer
LOOKING BACK AT 2018
Financially, we fell short of our key targets for the
year. We managed our issues directly, made multiple
changes and exited the year with momentum. Now, we
are prepared to turn a corner through continued focus
on improving operational excellence and cash flow.
During the first half of 2018, we had operational
challenges in our supply chain and services areas
that contributed to disappointing profit and cash
flows. In addition, excessive complexity in our global
business influenced an unfavorable cost profile. Coming
off our second-quarter earnings announcement,
share redemption requests from Diebold Nixdorf AG
2018 Annual Report | 1
shareholders, as part of the 2016 acquisition of Wincor
Nixdorf, increased dramatically. Settling these requests,
as mandated by German law, required cash payments
of more than $300 million. Subsequently, we secured
$650 million in financing to provide the funding needed
to pay this shareholder obligation, support key operational
and transformative initiatives, as well as initiate squeeze-
out proceedings of the remaining minority shareholders
in our German subsidiaries. This is a significant final step
in the integration of the company.
In the second half of 2018, we delivered the strongest
year-over-year revenue growth since the Diebold Nixdorf
combination, while also growing customer orders and
securing exceptionally high renewal rates on services
contracts. We executed several important foundational
changes to our operations, helping us to generate over
70 percent of the company’s full-year non-GAAP operating
profit during this period. Also, we innovated alongside our
clients and achieved meaningful new customer wins. During
the year, we saw our market share grow or remain stable
in our most important markets, counting many successes
with some of the most prominent customers in the banking
and retail industries globally.
In our efforts to further drive Connected Commerce to
the industries we serve and build our innovation profile,
we established strong partnerships with players such
as MasterCard to facilitate mobile transactions at the
automated teller machine (ATM) and managed services
for financial institutions and merchants alike. We’re
investing in next-generation platforms that allow us
to leverage the Internet of Things and data analytics
to provide connected services that lead the industry.
We’re also partnering with Google in retail engagements
to close the loop between digital marketing and the point
of sale. This is a way for us to add extra value for retailers
as they work to differentiate themselves from their online
challengers and enhance their connected experience
across physical and digital channels.
These accomplishments are evidence that the Diebold
Nixdorf brand — both in banking and retail — is strong
and resilient. That’s a real testament to what we can do
going forward with our company.
SHAPING THE FUTURE WITH DN NOW —
A ROADMAP FOR TRANSFORMATION
As we reflect on 2018 from an operational perspective,
much of our work was focused on addressing a cost
structure that is inconsistent with our needs. We
anticipate revenue streams will be relatively stable
in 2019 and will expand modestly thereafter, and we
have the opportunity to become much more efficient
in our cost structure, align with industry dynamics
and better position ourselves for the future.
DN Now, which we introduced in the second
quarter, provides the blueprint for the work we are
accomplishing. Since the plan launched, we have begun
to leverage our global scale, remove complexity from
the company and increase our focus on customers.
To be clear, this is not just a cost-cutting program.
This is a comprehensive, transformational effort
to optimize our revenue, improve working capital
discipline, enhance the consistency of service delivery
to customers and, of course, become more efficient.
DN Now is a multi-year program designed to deliver on
these changes, clearly sequenced over several quarters.
And we are pleased with our momentum thus far.
During the first several months of the program,
our teams came together to execute several key
initiatives. We reorganized and streamlined ourselves
to establish a more customer-centric operating model
featuring three segments — Eurasia Banking, Americas
Banking and Retail. This provides the overall structure
necessary for us to remove about $130 million of
costs from the organization.
2 | Diebold Nixdorf
We then launched a services modernization program
to upgrade systems and software, automate incident
reporting and response, and standardize processes. This
is designed to positively impact customer service and
ultimately move our margins to a competitive level without
compromising service quality. Early returns are promising,
as we saw sequential improvement in our service gross
margin in the third and fourth quarter.
We also made progress optimizing global manufacturing
and supply chain activities, including reducing the number
of ATM models by approximately 30 percent and closing
our assembly plant in India.
Based on the positive execution we’ve seen across these
initial activities, we’ve moved to the next phase of our
broad transformation program that forms the basis of our
focus for 2019. The detailed work we’ve completed has led
us to increase our three-year savings target defined in the
DN Now plan from $250 million to $400 million by 2021.
PLANS FOR 2019 AND BEYOND
Looking forward, the DN Now operating model provides
the structure for making more agile, impactful decisions
while helping shape our future at the same time. The
second wave of our plan builds upon and improves
what we do best — delivering quality products and
services to our customers — and is driven by four
specific areas of attention:
• Customer Focus continues to be a top priority, and
our Sales Center of Excellence will accelerate and
simplify how we sell to customers and evolve our
salesforce. This includes creating new, centralized
teams to focus on opportunities where we can best
deliver value to the customer with a laser focus on
increasing cash generation and revenue.
• Because customer needs are changing, we will also
continue to Evolve Our Products. We are investing
in solution-oriented products and services — through
the ATM-as-a-Service offering and optimizing our
product line. Our DN Vynamic™ software suite and DN
AllConnect Services™ provide the portfolio backbone
necessary to address our customers’ evolving needs
for software and services-driven solutions to achieve
consumer satisfaction and loyalty.
• Our plan also includes specific work streams to
accelerate Operational Excellence. Intense focus
on process excellence will help us drive common
processes and policies that are appropriate for
a global company. Initial efforts are focused in
finance and key order-to-cash processes such as
order management, sales and operations planning
and invoicing. We made positive strides in this space
in 2018 and will continue to do so as we progress.
• And lastly, we are taking steps to Optimize the
Balance Sheet, Improve Cash Flow and Address Our
Debt. We will seek to improve execution of receivables
and payables, while improving inventory management.
Exiting 2018, we established targets for each country
and assigned leaders to ensure accountability. In
the fourth quarter, we saw tremendous progress
in reducing our net working capital that we expect
to sustain moving forward. We also reviewed our
portfolio of businesses and have started actions to
2018 Annual Report | 3
divest certain non-core assets. These actions are having
a positive impact on our financial condition and will
facilitate long-term financial flexibility.
There are several metrics that we track to gauge
progress in our DN Now program, but the most
important metric focuses on sustainably improving
our cash flow.
Building an experienced, aligned and talented leadership
team to execute our key initiatives and develop a stronger,
more united culture is crucial to our efforts to shape a
more successful future. I believe we made several positive
strides in uniting our global leadership around a common
sense of purpose and we are very fortunate to have
deepened our talent base through the addition of several
key leaders during the year.
I am also extremely grateful for the experience, passion
and resilience that our global employees show each
and every day. Regardless of whether they serve our
customers in the U.S., Germany, France, Brazil, India or
one of the many other countries in which we operate,
they are the heartbeat of the organization.
BOARD ENGAGEMENT
Our Board of Directors is also committed to
transformational change. The Board is partnering
with management to address the company’s substantial
challenges and provide guidance and support to
navigate this exciting time. Along with driving the
company’s strategic priorities, the Board is continuing
its commitment to good governance. In 2018, we
continued our refreshment of the Board, adding two
new members, Ellen Costello and Bruce Besanko. Both
individuals bring a wealth of knowledge and experience
to our Board as distinguished executives with relevant
industry experience. As we progress through 2019, the
Board is committed to advancing our company’s
agenda by adding other accomplished Board members,
ensuring that the Board has the skills appropriate to
help achieve our strategic objectives.
OUR GOALS ARE CLEAR
Looking ahead, there are encouraging signs. Financial
institutions of all sizes are investing in software, digital
and mobile technologies, and we have the solutions to
meet their needs. Retailers are investing in technologies
that support their drive for automation and consumer
engagement — and we are well-positioned to support
them. We also anticipate an improving trajectory for our
ATM systems revenue, especially in our largest markets.
As a result, we entered the year with more confidence
in our business. Our goals are clear — to drive a
customer-centric mindset, become more operationally
effective, improve our cash flow and strengthen our
balance sheet. The values exemplified by DN Now will
continue to guide our transformation.
Over the past year, I have become even more convinced
of our value proposition. We are the global leader
in our markets, have a stable revenue base, talented
employees, and are a respected partner to our
customers around the world. This position is based
on years of hard work and history, and we have a lot
to be proud of. Clearly, we need to execute effectively
to earn the kind of value expected from our company.
However, with the transformative plans we have in
place and the collective knowledge and passion of our
employees, I believe we will succeed. I am confident
that we will create meaningful and sustainable change
that will position us well for the future.
Thank you very much for your investment and
continued commitment.

integrate and optimize systems and processes, transition workloads to lower cost locations and consolidate real estate holdings.
By executing on these and other operational improvement activities, the Company expects to increase customer intimacy and
satisfaction, while providing career enrichment opportunities for employees and enhancing value for shareholders.
CONNECTED COMMERCE SOLUTIONS
The Company’s operating structure is focused on its two customer segments — Banking and Retail. Leveraging a broad portfolio
of solutions, the Company offers customers the flexibility to purchase the combination of services, software and systems that drive
the most value to their business.
Banking
The Company provides integrated solutions for financial institutions of all sizes designed to help drive operational efficiencies,
differentiate the consumer experience, grow revenue and manage risk. Banking operations are managed within two geographic
regions. The Eurasia region includes the developed economies of Western Europe as well as the emerging economies of Eastern
Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The Americas region encompasses the United States (U.S.), Canada, Mexico and Latin
America.
For banking clients, services represents the largest operational component of the Company. Diebold Nixdorf AllConnectSM
Services was launched in 2018 to power the business operations of financial institutions of all sizes. This as-a-service offering
provides financial institutions with the capabilities and technology needed to make physical distribution channels as agile,
integrated, efficient and differentiated as their digital counterparts by leveraging a data-driven Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure.
The Company’s product-related services resolve incidents through remote service capabilities or an on-site visit. The portfolio
includes first and second line maintenance, preventive maintenance, “on-demand” and total implementation services.
3
Managed services and outsourcing consists of managing the end-to-end business processes, technology integration and day-to-
day operation of the self-service channel and the bank branch. Our integrated business solutions include self-service fleet
management, branch life-cycle management and ATM as-a-service capabilities.
From a product perspective, the banking portfolio consists of cash recyclers and dispensers, intelligent deposit terminals, teller
automation and kiosk technologies, as well as physical security solutions. The Company assists financial institutions to increase
the functionality, availability and security within their ATM fleet.
The Company’s software encompasses front-end applications for consumer connection points as well as back-end platforms which
manage channel transactions, operations and integration. These hardware-agnostic software applications facilitate millions of
transactions via ATMs, kiosks, and other self-service devices, as well as via online and mobile digital channels.
In 2017, the Company introduced DN Vynamic™ Software, the first end-to-end Connected Commerce software portfolio in the
banking marketplace designed to simplify and enhance the consumer experience. In addition, DN Vynamic suite's open application
program interface (API) architecture is built to simplify operations by eliminating the traditional focus on internal silos and enabling
tomorrow's inter-connected partnerships between financial institutions and payment providers. In addition, with a shared analytic
and transaction engine, the DN Vynamic platform can generate new insights to enhance operations across any channel - putting
consumer preferences, not the technology, at the heart of the experience.
An important enabler of the Company’s software offerings is the professional service employees who provide systems integration,
customization, project management and consulting. The Company's advisory services team collaborates with customers to refine
the end-user experience, improve business processes, refine existing staffing models and deploy technology to automate both
branches and stores.
Retail
The Company’s comprehensive portfolio of retail solutions, software and services improves the checkout process for retailers while
enhancing shopping experiences for consumers.
The DN Vynamic software suite for retailers provides a comprehensive, modular solution capable of enabling Connected Commerce
across multiple channels, improving end-to-end store processes and facilitating continuous consumer engagements in support of
a digital ecosystem. This includes click & collect, reserve & collect, in-store ordering and return-to-store processes across the
retailers' physical and digital sales channels. Operational data from a number of sources, such as enterprise resource planning
(ERP), point of sale (POS), store systems and customer relationship management systems (CRM), may be integrated across all
customer connection points to create seamless and differentiated consumer experiences.
Diebold Nixdorf AllConnect Services for retailers include maintenance and availability services to continuously improve retail self-
service fleet availability and performance. These include: total implementation services to support both current and new store
concepts; managed mobility services to centralize asset management and ensure effective, tailored mobile capability; monitoring
and advanced analytics providing operational insights to support new growth opportunities; and store life-cycle management to
proactively monitor store IT endpoints and enable improved management of internal and external suppliers and delivery
organizations.
Service personnel supervise store openings, renewals and transformation projects, with attention to local details and customers’
global IT infrastructure.
The retail systems portfolio includes modular, integrated and mobile POS and self-checkout (SCO) terminals that meet evolving
automation and omnichannel requirements of consumers. The Company also provides SCO terminals and ordering kiosks that
facilitate an efficient and user-friendly purchasing experience. The BEETLE /iSCAN EASY eXpress, hybrid products, can alternate
from attended operation to self-checkout with the press of a button as customer conditions warrant. The K-Two Kiosk automates
routine tasks and in-store transactions, offers order-taking abilities at quick service restaurants (QSRs) and fast casual restaurants,
displays product information, sells tickets and presents functionality that furthers store automation and digitalization.
Supplementing the POS system is a broad range of peripherals, including printers, scales and mobile scanners, as well as the cash
management portfolio, which offers a wide range of banknote and coin processing systems.
COMPETITION
The Company competes with global, regional and local competitors to provide technology solutions for financial institutions and
retailers. The Company differentiates its offerings by providing a wide range of innovative solutions that leverage innovations in
advanced security, biometric authentication, mobile connectivity, contactless transactions, cloud computing and IoT. Based upon
independent industry surveys from Retail Banking Research (RBR), the Company is a leading service provider and manufacturer
of self-service solutions across the globe.
Competitors in the self-service banking market include NCR, Nautilus Hyosung, GRG Banking Equipment, Glory Global Solutions,
Oki Data and Triton Systems, as well as a number of local manufacturing and service providers such as Fujitsu and Hitachi-Omron
4
in Asia Pacific (AP); Hantle/GenMega in North America (NA); KEBA in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and Perto in Latin
America (LA). In Brazil, the Company provides election systems, lottery terminals and product support to the Brazil government.
Competition in this market segment is based upon technology pre-qualification demonstrations.
In a number of markets, the Company sells to, but also competes with, independent ATM deployers such as Cardtronics, Payment
Alliance International and Euronet.
In the retail market, the Company is a leader in helping the majority of retailers headquartered in Europe transform their stores
to a consumer-centric approach by providing electronic POS (ePOS), automated checkout solutions, cash management, software
and services. The Company competes with some of the key players highlighted above plus other technology firms such as Toshiba
and Fujitsu, and specialized software players such as GK Software, Oracle, Aptos and PCMS. Many retailers also work with proprietary
software solutions.
For its services offerings, the Company perceives competition to be fragmented, especially in the product-related services segment.
While other manufacturers provide basic levels of product support, the competition also includes local and regional third-party
providers. With respect to higher value managed services, the Company competes with large IT service providers such as IBM,
Atos, Fiserv and DXC Technology.
In the self-service software market, the Company, in addition to the key hardware players highlighted above, competes with several
smaller, niche software companies like KAL, or with the internal software development teams of banks and retailers.
OPERATIONS
The Company’s operating results and the amount and timing of revenue are affected by numerous factors, including production
schedules, customer priorities, sales volume and mix. During the past several years, the Company has honed its offerings to
become a total solutions provider with a focus on Connected Commerce. As a result of the emphasis on services and software,
the nature of the Company's workforce is changing and requires new skill sets in areas such as:
• Advanced security and compliance measures,
• Advanced sensors,
• Modern field services operations,
• Cloud computing,
• Analytics, and
• As-a-service software expertise.
The principal raw materials used by the Company in its manufacturing operations are steel, plastics, electronic parts and
components and spare parts, which are purchased from various major suppliers. These materials and components are generally
available in ample quantities.
The Company carries working capital mainly related to trade receivables and inventories. Inventories generally are manufactured
or purchased as orders are received from customers. The Company’s normal and customary payment terms generally range from
30 to 90 days from date of invoice. The Company generally does not offer extended payment terms. The Company
also provides financing arrangements to customers that are largely classified and accounted for as sales-type leases.
PRODUCT BACKLOG
The Company's product backlog was $1,012.7 and $1,026.7 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The backlog
generally includes orders estimated or projected to be shipped or installed within 18 months. Although the Company believes
the orders included in the backlog are firm, some orders may be canceled by customers without penalty, and the Company may
elect to permit cancellation of orders without penalty where management believes it is in the Company's best interests to do so.
Historically, the Company has not experienced significant cancellations within its product backlog. Additionally, over 50 percent
of the Company's revenues are derived from its service business, for which backlog information is not measured. Therefore, the
Company does not believe that its product backlog, as of any particular date, is necessarily indicative of revenues for any future
period.
PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES
The Company owns patents, trademarks and licenses relating to certain products across the globe. While the Company regards
these as items of importance, it does not deem its business as a whole, or any industry segment, to be materially dependent upon
any one item or group of items. The Company intends to protect and defend its intellectual property, including pursuit of infringing
third parties for damages and other appropriate remedies.
5
ENVIRONMENTAL
Compliance with federal, state and local environmental protection laws during 2018 had no material effect upon the Company’s
business, financial condition or results of operations.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 2018, the Company employed approximately 23,000 associates globally. The Company conducts business in
more than 100 countries.

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS
(dollars and euros in millions)
The following are certain risk factors that could affect the Company's business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.
These risk factors should be considered in connection with evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this annual
report on Form 10-K because they could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statement. The risk factors highlighted below are not the only ones the Company faces. If any of these events actually occur, the
Company's business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows could be negatively affected.
The Company cautions the reader to keep these risk factors in mind and refrain from attributing undue certainty to any forward-
looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K.
The Company may fail to realize all of the anticipated strategic and financial benefits sought from the 2016 acquisition of Diebold
Nixdorf AG (the Acquisition).
The Company may not realize all of the anticipated benefits of the Acquisition. The success of the Acquisition depends upon,
among other things, the Company’s ability to combine its business with Diebold Nixdorf AG’s business in a manner that facilitates
growth in the value-added services sector and realizes anticipated cost savings. The operations and personnel of the Acquisition
involves complex operational, technological and personnel-related challenges. This process can be time-consuming and expensive,
and it may disrupt the businesses of the Company. The Company believes that the Acquisition will provide an opportunity for
revenue growth in managed services, professional services, installation and maintenance services.
However, the Company must successfully combine the Acquisition in a manner that permits these anticipated benefits to be
realized. In addition, the Company must achieve the anticipated growth and cost savings without adversely affecting current
revenues and investments in future growth. Further, providing managed services, professional services, installation and maintenance
services can be highly complex and can involve the design, development, implementation and operation of new solutions and
the transitioning of clients from their existing systems and processes to a new environment. If the Company is not able to effectively
provide value-added services and successfully achieve the growth and cost savings objectives, the anticipated benefits of the
Acquisition may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected.
The Company may not be able to achieve, or may be delayed in achieving, the goals of its DN Now initiatives, and this may
adversely affect its operating results and cash flow.
The Company's DN Now initiatives consist of a customer-focused operating model designed to increase profitable sales, improve
gross margin, improve operating efficiencies and reduce operating costs. Although the Company has achieved a substantial amount
of annual cost savings associated with the cost-cutting initiatives of DN Now, it may be unable to sustain the cost savings that it
has achieved or may be unable to achieve additional cost savings. If the Company is unable to achieve, or has any unexpected
delays in achieving, the goals of DN Now, its results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected. Even if the Company
meets its goals as a result of its DN Now initiatives, it may not receive the expected financial benefits of these initiatives, within
the expected timeframe or at all.
The Company is exposed to additional litigation risk and uncertainty with respect to the remaining minority shareholders of
Diebold Nixdorf AG.
As a result of the Acquisition, the Company continues to be exposed to litigation risk and uncertainty associated with the remaining
minority shareholders of Diebold Nixdorf AG. The adequacy of both forms of compensation payments to minority shareholders
agreed under the terms of the Domination and Profit and Loss Transfer Agreement between Diebold Holding Germany Inc. & Co.
KGaA (Diebold KGaA), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and Diebold Nixdorf AG (the DPLTA) has been challenged by
certain minority shareholders of Diebold Nixdorf AG, who have initiated court-led appraisal proceedings under German law. The
Company cannot rule out that the competent court in such appraisal proceeding may adjudicate a higher exit compensation or
recurring payment obligation (in each case, including interest thereon) than agreed upon in the DPLTA, the financial impact and
timing of which is uncertain. Furthermore, on January 31, 2019, Diebold KGaA entered into a merger agreement with Diebold
Nixdorf AG pursuant to which Diebold Nixdorf AG shall be merged with and into Diebold KGaA. In this context, a squeeze-out
of the remaining minority shareholders of Diebold Nixdorf AG against adequate cash compensation will be carried out. The timing
of when the merger becomes effective as well as its ultimate financial impact remain uncertain.
The Company’s failure to meet its debt service obligations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,
financial condition and results of operations.
The Company’s high level of indebtedness could adversely affect the Company’s operations and liquidity. The Company’s level of
indebtedness could, among other things:
• make it more difficult for the Company to pay or refinance its debts as they become due during adverse economic and
industry conditions because the Company may not have sufficient cash flows to make its scheduled debt payments;
7
•
•
•
•
•
•
cause the Company to use a larger portion of its cash flow to fund interest and principal payments, reducing the availability
of cash to fund working capital, capital expenditures, R&D and other business activities;
limit the Company’s ability to take advantage of significant business opportunities, such as acquisition opportunities, and
to react to changes in market or industry conditions;
cause the Company to be more vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
cause the Company to be disadvantaged compared to competitors with less leverage;
result in a downgrade in the credit rating of the Company or indebtedness of the Company or its subsidiaries, which
could increase the cost of borrowings; and
limit the Company’s ability to borrow additional monies in the future to fund working capital, capital expenditures, R&D
and other business activities.
In addition, the agreements governing the Company's indebtedness contain restrictive covenants that limit its ability to engage
in activities that may be in its long-term best interest. The Company's failure to comply with those covenants could result in an
event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all its debt.
The Company may also incur additional long-term debt and working capital lines of credit to meet future financing needs, which
would increase its total indebtedness. Although the terms of its existing and future credit agreements and of the indenture governing
its high-yield senior notes (the Indenture) contain restrictions on the incurrence of additional debt, including secured debt, these
restrictions are subject to a number of important exceptions and debt incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be
substantial. If the Company and its restricted subsidiaries incur significant additional debt, the related risks that the Company faces
could intensify.
The Company may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of its indebtedness and may be forced to take other
actions to satisfy its obligations under its indebtedness, which may not be successful.
The Company's ability to make scheduled payments or refinance its debt obligations depends on its financial condition and
operating performance, which are subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business,
legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond its control. The Company may be unable to maintain a level of cash flows from
operating activities sufficient to permit the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on its indebtedness.
If the Company's cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund its debt service obligations, the Company could face
substantial liquidity problems and could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures or to dispose of
material assets or operations, seek additional debt or equity capital or restructure or refinance its indebtedness. The Company
may not be able to effect any such alternative measures, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms or at all and, even if
successful, those alternative actions may not allow the Company to meet its scheduled debt service obligations. In addition, the
terms of the Company's existing or future debt arrangements may restrict it from effecting any of these alternatives.
The Company's existing revolving credit facility, letter of credit in the revolver, Delayed Draw Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan
A Facility mature in December 2020. As of December 31, 2018, $125.0 was outstanding under the revolving credit facility in
addition to $27.5 letters of credit, $160.5 was outstanding under the Delayed Draw Term Loan A Facility and $126.3 million was
outstanding under the Term Loan A Facility. Although the Company intends to refinance the amounts outstanding under the
revolving credit facility and Term Loan A Facility prior to maturity, there can be no assurance it will be able to do so on commercially
reasonable terms or at all. The Company's inability to generate sufficient cash flows to satisfy its debt obligations, or to refinance
any of its indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all, would materially and adversely affect its financial position
and results of operations.
The terms of the credit agreement governing the Company's revolving credit facility and term loans (the Credit Agreement) and
the Indenture restrict its current and future operations, particularly its ability to respond to changes or to take certain actions.
The Credit Agreement and the Indenture contain a number of restrictive covenants that impose significant operating and financial
restrictions on the Company and may limit its ability to engage in acts that may be in its long-term best interest, including restrictions
on its ability to:
incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness;
pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock;
prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt;
issue certain preferred stock or similar equity securities;
•
•
•
•
• make loans and investments;
•
•
•
•
•
•
sell assets;
incur liens;
enter into transactions with affiliates;
alter the businesses the Company conducts;
enter into agreements restricting the Company's subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and
consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of the Company's assets.
8
In addition, the restrictive covenants in the Credit Agreement require the Company to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy
other financial condition tests. Although it entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement in August 2018 to, among other
things, revise certain of the Company's financial covenants, upon the occurrence of certain events, the financial covenants, including
the Company's net leverage ratio, will revert to pre-amendment levels. The Company's ability to meet the financial ratios and tests
can be affected by events beyond its control, and it may be unable to meet them.
A breach of the covenants or restrictions under the Indenture or under the Credit Agreement could result in an event of default
under the applicable indebtedness. Such a default may allow the creditors to accelerate the related debt and may result in the
acceleration of any other debt to which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies. In addition, an event of default
under the Credit Agreement would permit the lenders under the Company's revolving credit facility to terminate all commitments
to extend further credit under that facility. Furthermore, if the Company were unable to repay the amounts due and payable under
its revolving credit facility and term loans, those lenders could proceed against the collateral granted them to secure that
indebtedness. In the event the Company's lenders or noteholders accelerate the repayment of its borrowings, the Company and
its subsidiaries may not have sufficient assets to repay that indebtedness. As a result of these restrictions, the Company may be:
•
•
•
limited in how it conduct its business;
unable to raise additional debt or equity financing to operate during general economic or business downturns; and
unable to compete effectively or to take advantage of new business opportunities.
These restrictions may affect the Company's ability to grow in accordance with its strategy. In addition, the Company's financial
results, its substantial indebtedness and its credit ratings could adversely affect the availability and terms of its financing.
The Company may not be successful divesting its non-core and/or non-accretive businesses.
The Company has a plan to divest certain non-core and/or non-accretive businesses to, among other things, simplify its business
and reduce its debt. However, there can be no assurance that it will be successful in selling any assets. It may incur substantial
expenses associated with identifying and evaluating potential sales. The process of exploring any sales may be time consuming
and disruptive to its business operations, and if it is unable to effectively manage the process, its business, financial condition and
results of operations could be adversely affected. It also cannot assure that any potential sale, if consummated, will prove to be
beneficial to its shareholders. Any potential sale would be dependent upon a number of factors that may be beyond its control,
including, among other factors, market conditions, industry trends, the interest of third parties in the assets and the availability of
financing to potential buyers on reasonable terms.
In addition, while it evaluates asset sales, the Company is exposed to risks and uncertainties, including potential difficulties in
retaining and attracting key employees, distraction of its management from other important business activities, and potential
difficulties in establishing and maintaining relationships with customers, suppliers, lenders, sureties and other third parties, all of
which could harm its business.
Demand for and supply of the Company's services and products may be adversely affected by numerous factors, some of which
it cannot predict or control. This could adversely affect its operating results.
Numerous factors may affect the demand for and supply of the Company's services and products, including:
changes in the market acceptance of its services and products;
customer and competitor consolidation;
changes in customer preferences;
declines in general economic conditions;
disruptive technologies;
changes in environmental regulations that would limit its ability to service and sell products in specific markets;
•
•
•
•
•
•
• macro-economic factors affecting retail stores and banks, credit unions and other financial institutions may lead to cost-
cutting efforts by customers, including branch closures, which could cause it to lose current or potential customers or
achieve less revenue per customer; and
availability of purchased products.
•
If any of these factors occur, the demand for and supply of the Company's services and products could suffer, which could adversely
affect its results of operations.
9
The Company’s ability to deliver products that satisfy customer requirements is dependent on the performance of its
subcontractors and suppliers, as well as on the availability of raw materials and other components.
The Company relies on other companies, including subcontractors and suppliers, to provide and produce raw materials, integrated
components and sub-assemblies and production commodities included in, or used in the production of, its products. If one or
more of the Company's subcontractors or suppliers experiences delivery delays or other performance problems, it may be unable
to meet commitments to its customers or incur additional costs. In some instances, the Company depends upon a single source
of supply. Any service disruption from one of these suppliers, either due to circumstances beyond the supplier’s control, such as
geo-political developments, or as a result of performance problems or financial difficulties, could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's ability to meet commitments to its customers or increase its operating costs.
Increased energy, raw material and labor costs could reduce the Company's operating results.
Energy prices, particularly petroleum prices, are cost drivers for the Company's business. In recent years, the price of petroleum
has been highly volatile, particularly due to the unstable political conditions in the Middle East and increasing international demand
from emerging markets. Price increases in fuel and electricity costs, such as those increases that may occur from climate change
legislation or other environmental mandates, may continue to increase cost of operations. Any increase in the costs of energy
would also increase the Company's transportation costs.
The primary raw materials in the Company's services, software and systems solutions are steel, plastics, and electronic parts and
components. The majority of raw materials are purchased from various local, regional and global suppliers pursuant to supply
contracts. However, the price of these materials can fluctuate under these contracts in tandem with the pricing of raw materials.
The Company cannot assure that its labor costs going forward will remain competitive or will not increase. In the future, the
Company's labor agreements may be amended, or become amendable, and new agreements could have terms with higher labor
costs. In addition, labor costs may increase in connection with the Company's growth. The Company may also become subject to
collective bargaining agreements in the future in the event that non-unionized workers may unionize.
Although the Company attempts to pass on higher energy, raw material and labor costs to its customers, it is often not possible
given the competitive markets in which it operates.
In addition to the Acquisition, the Company may be unable to successfully and effectively manage acquisitions, divestitures and
other significant transactions, which could harm its operating results, business and prospects.
As part of its business strategy, the Company frequently engages in discussions with third parties regarding possible investments,
acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint ventures, divestitures and outsourcing arrangements, and enters into agreements relating to
such transactions in order to further its business objectives. In order to pursue this strategy successfully, it must identify suitable
candidates, successfully complete transactions, some of which may be large and complex, and manage post-closing issues such
as the integration of acquired companies or employees and the divestiture of combined businesses, operations and employees.
Integration, divestiture and other risks of these transactions can be more pronounced in larger and more complicated transactions,
or if multiple transactions are pursued simultaneously. If it fails to identify and successfully complete transactions that further its
strategic objectives, it may be required to expend resources to develop products and technology internally. This may put it at a
competitive disadvantage and it may be adversely affected by negative market perceptions, any of which may have a material
adverse effect on its revenue, gross margin and profitability.
Integration and divestiture issues are complex, time-consuming and expensive and, without proper planning and implementation,
could significantly disrupt the Company's business. The challenges involved in integrating and divesting include:
•
•
•
combining service and product offerings and entering into new markets in which the Company is not experienced;
convincing customers and distributors that any such transaction will not diminish client service standards or business
focus, preventing customers and distributors from deferring purchasing decisions or switching to other suppliers or service
providers (which could result in additional obligations to address customer uncertainty), and coordinating service, sales,
marketing and distribution efforts;
consolidating and rationalizing corporate IT infrastructure, which may include multiple systems from various acquisitions
and integrating software code;
• minimizing the diversion of management attention from ongoing business concerns;
•
persuading employees that business cultures are compatible, maintaining employee morale and retaining key employees,
integrating employees into the Company, correctly estimating employee benefit costs and implementing restructuring
programs;
coordinating and combining administrative, service, manufacturing, R&D and other operations, subsidiaries, facilities and
relationships with third parties in accordance with local laws and other obligations while maintaining adequate standards,
controls and procedures;
achieving savings from supply chain and administration integration; and
efficiently divesting combined business operations which may cause increased costs as divested businesses are de-
integrated from embedded systems and operations.
•
•
•
10
The Company evaluates and enters into these types of transactions on an ongoing basis. It may not fully realize all of the anticipated
benefits of any transaction and the time frame for achieving benefits of a transaction may depend partially upon the actions of
employees, suppliers or other third parties. In addition, the pricing and other terms of its contracts for these transactions require
it to make estimates and assumptions at the time it enters into these contracts, and, during the course of its due diligence, it may
not identify all of the factors necessary to estimate costs accurately. Any increased or unexpected costs, unanticipated delays or
failure to achieve contractual obligations could make these agreements less profitable or unprofitable.
The Company's business may be affected by general economic conditions, cyclicality and uncertainty and could be adversely
affected during economic downturns.
Demand for the Company's services and products is affected by general economic conditions and the business conditions of the
industries in which it sells its services and products. The business of most of the Company's customers, particularly its financial
institution and retail customers, is, to varying degrees, cyclical and has historically experienced periodic downturns. Under difficult
economic conditions, customers may seek to reduce discretionary spending by forgoing purchases of the Company's services and
products. This risk is magnified for capital goods purchases such as ATMs, retail systems and physical security products. In addition,
downturns in the Company's customers’ industries, even during periods of strong general economic conditions, could adversely
affect the demand for the Company's services and products, and its sales and operating results.
In particular, continuing economic difficulties in the global markets have led to an economic recession in certain markets in which
the Company operates. As a result of these difficulties and other factors, including new or increased regulatory burdens, financial
institutions and retail customers have failed and may continue to fail, resulting in a loss of current or potential customers, or deferred
or canceled orders, including orders previously placed. Any customer deferrals or cancellations could materially affect the
Company's sales and operating results.
The Company faces competition that could adversely affect its sales and financial condition.
All phases of the Company's business are highly competitive. Some of its services and products are in direct competition with
similar or alternative services or products provided by its competitors. The Company encounters competition in price, delivery,
service, performance, product innovation, product recognition and quality.
Because of the potential for consolidation in any market, the Company's competitors may become larger, which could make them
more efficient and permit them to be more price-competitive. Increased size could also permit them to operate in wider geographic
areas and enhance their abilities in other areas such as R&D and customer service. As a result, this could also reduce the Company's
profitability.
The Company expects that its competitors will continue to develop and introduce new and enhanced services and products. This
could cause a decline in market acceptance of the Company's services and products. In addition, the Company's competitors
could cause a reduction in the prices for some of its services and products as a result of intensified price competition. Also, the
Company may be unable to effectively anticipate and react to new entrants in the marketplace competing with its services and
products.
Competitive pressures can also result in the loss of major customers. An inability to compete successfully could have an adverse
effect on the Company's operating results, financial condition and cash flows in any given period.
Additional tax expense or additional tax exposures could affect the Company's future profitability.
The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and various non-U.S. jurisdictions, and its domestic and international tax
liabilities are dependent upon the distribution of income among these different jurisdictions. If the Company decides to repatriate
cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments residing in international tax jurisdictions, there could be further negative impact
on foreign and domestic taxes. The Company's tax expense includes estimates of additional tax that may be incurred for tax
exposures and reflects various estimates and assumptions, including assessments of future earnings of the Company that could
affect the valuation of its net deferred tax assets. The Company's future results could be adversely affected by changes in the
effective tax rate as a result of a change in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the overall
profitability of the Company, changes in tax legislation, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, the results
of audits and examinations of previously filed tax returns and continuing assessments of its income tax exposures.
Additionally, the Company's future results could be adversely affected by the results of indirect tax audits and examinations, and
continuing assessments of its indirect tax exposures. A loss contingency is reasonably possible if it has a more than remote but
less than probable chance of occurring. Although management believes the Company has valid defenses with respect to its indirect
tax positions, it is reasonably possible that a loss could occur in excess of the estimated accrual. The Company estimated the
aggregate risk at December 31, 2018 to be up to $106.1 for its material indirect tax matters. The aggregate risk related to indirect
taxes is adjusted as the applicable statutes of limitations expire. It is reasonably possible that the Company could be required to
pay taxes, penalties and interest related to this matter or other open years, which could be material to its financial condition and
results of operations.
11
In international markets, the Company competes with local service providers that may have competitive advantages.
In a number of international markets in each region where the Company operates, for instance in Brazil and China, it faces substantial
competition from local service providers that offer competing services and products. Some of these companies may have a dominant
market share in their territories and may be owned by local stakeholders. This could give them a competitive advantage. Local
providers of competing services and products may also have a substantial advantage in attracting customers in their countries due
to more established branding in that country, greater knowledge with respect to the tastes and preferences of customers residing
in that country and/or their focus on a single market. As a U.S. based multi-national corporation, the Company must ensure its
compliance with both U.S. and foreign regulatory requirements.
Because the Company's operations are conducted worldwide, they are affected by risks of doing business abroad.
The Company generates a significant percentage of revenue from operations conducted outside the U.S. Revenue from international
operations amounted to approximately 77.1 percent in 2018, 77.2 percent in 2017 and 67.0 percent in 2016 of total revenue
during these respective years.
Accordingly, international operations are subject to the risks of doing business abroad, including, among other things, the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
fluctuations in currency exchange rates, particularly in EMEA (primarily the euro (EUR) and Great Britain pound sterling
(GBP)), Mexico (peso), Thailand (baht) and Brazil (real);
transportation and supply chain delays and interruptions;
political and economic instability and disruptions, including the impact of trade agreements;
the failure of foreign governments to abide by international agreements and treaties;
restrictions on the transfer of funds;
the imposition of duties, tariffs and other taxes;
import and export controls;
changes in governmental policies and regulatory environments;
ensuring the Company's compliance with U.S. laws and regulations and applicable laws and regulations in other
jurisdictions, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the U.K. Bribery Act, and applicable laws and regulations
in other jurisdictions;
increasingly complex laws and regulations concerning privacy and data security, including the European Union’s (EU)
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR);
labor unrest and current and changing regulatory environments;
the uncertainty of product acceptance by different cultures;
the risks of divergent business expectations or cultural incompatibility inherent in establishing strategic alliances with
foreign partners;
difficulties in staffing and managing multi-national operations;
limitations on the ability to enforce legal rights and remedies;
reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries; and
potentially adverse tax consequences, including repatriation of profits.
Any of these events could have an adverse effect on the Company's international operations by reducing the demand for its
services and products or decreasing the prices at which it can sell its services and products, thereby adversely affecting its financial
condition or operating results. The Company may not be able to continue to operate in compliance with applicable customs,
currency exchange control regulations, transfer pricing regulations or any other laws or regulations to which it may be subject. In
addition, these laws or regulations may be modified in the future, and the Company may not be able to operate in compliance
with those modifications.
Significant developments from the recent and potential changes in U.S. trade policies could have a material adverse effect on
the Company and its financial condition and results of operations.
The U.S. government has indicated its intent to alter its approach to international trade policy and in some cases to renegotiate,
or potentially terminate, certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements and treaties with foreign countries. On various
dates in July, August and September 2018, the U.S. government implemented additional tariffs of 25 percent and 10 percent
(increasing to 25 percent on January 1, 2019) on certain goods imported from China. The Company manufactures a substantial
amount of its products in China and are presently subjected to these additional tariffs. These tariffs, and other governmental action
relating to international trade agreements or policies, the adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, or the occurrence of a
trade war may adversely impact demand for the Company's products, costs, customers, suppliers and/or the U.S. economy or
certain sectors thereof and, as a result, adversely impact its business. These additional tariffs may cause the Company to increase
prices to its customers, which may reduce demand, or, if it is unable to increase prices, result in lowering its margin on products
sold. It remains unclear what the U.S. or foreign governments will or will not do with respect to tariffs, international trade agreements
and policies on a short-term or long-term basis. The Company cannot predict future trade policy or the terms of any renegotiated
trade agreements and their impacts on its business.
12
As a result of these tariffs and other governmental action, the Company is presently shifting some of its supply base and sourcing
to mitigate the risk of higher tariffs. Any shift may not be fully successful in reducing its costs, or fully off-setting the impact of
tariffs.
The Company may be exposed to liabilities under the FCPA, which could harm its reputation and have a material adverse effect
on its business.
The Company is subject to compliance with various laws and regulations, including the FCPA and similar worldwide anti-bribery
laws, which generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from engaging in bribery or making other improper payments
to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or gaining an unfair business advantage. The FCPA also
requires proper record keeping and characterization of such payments in the Company's reports filed with the SEC.
The Company's employees and agents are required to comply with these laws. The Company operates in many parts of the world
that have experienced governmental and commercial corruption to some degree, and strict compliance with anti-bribery laws may
conflict with local customs and practices. Foreign companies, including some that may compete with the Company, may not be
subject to the FCPA and may follow local customs and practices. Accordingly, such companies may be more likely to engage in
activities prohibited by the FCPA, which could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's ability to compete for business
in such countries.
Despite the Company's commitment to legal compliance and corporate ethics, it cannot ensure that its policies and procedures
will always protect it from intentional, reckless or negligent acts committed by its employees or agents. Violations of these laws,
or allegations of such violations, could disrupt the Company's business and result in financial penalties, debarment from government
contracts and other consequences that may have a material adverse effect on its reputation, business, financial condition or results
of operations. Future changes in anti-bribery or economic sanctions laws and enforcement could also result in increased compliance
requirements and related expenses that may also have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of
operations.
The Company has a significant amount of long-term assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets, and any future
impairment charges could adversely impact its results of operations.
The Company reviews long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and identifiable amortizing intangible assets,
for impairment whenever changes in circumstances or events may indicate that the carrying amounts are not recoverable. If the
fair value is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference. Factors which may cause an impairment
of long-lived assets include significant changes in the manner of use of these assets, negative industry or market trends, a significant
under-performance relative to historical or projected future operating results, or a likely sale or disposal of the asset before the
end of its estimated useful life.
As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $827.1 of goodwill. The Company’s four reporting units are defined as Eurasia Banking,
Americas Banking, EMEA Retail and Rest of World Retail. Management concluded during a second and third quarter interim
goodwill impairment tests for 2018 that a portion of the Company’s goodwill was not recoverable and recorded a $217.5 non-
cash impairment loss for the year ended December 31, 2018. The techniques used in its qualitative and quantitative assessment
and goodwill impairment tests incorporate a number of estimates and assumptions that are subject to change. Although the
Company believes these estimates and assumptions are reasonable and reflect market conditions forecast at the assessment date,
any changes to these assumptions and estimates due to market conditions or otherwise may lead to an outcome where impairment
charges would be required in future periods.
System security risks, systems integration and cybersecurity issues could disrupt the Company's internal operations or services
provided to customers, and any such disruption could adversely affect revenue, increase costs, and harm its reputation and stock
price.
Experienced computer programmers and hackers may be able to penetrate the Company's network security and misappropriate
its own confidential information or those of its customers, corrupt data, create system disruptions or cause shutdowns. A network
security breach could be particularly harmful if it remains undetected for an extended period of time. Groups of hackers may also
act in a coordinated manner to launch distributed denial of service attacks, or other coordinated attacks, that may cause service
outages or other interruptions. The Company could incur significant expenses in addressing problems created by network security
breaches, such as the expenses of deploying additional personnel, enhancing or implementing new protection measures, training
employees or hiring consultants. Further, such corrective measures may later prove inadequate. Moreover, actual or perceived
security vulnerabilities in the Company's services and products could cause significant reputational harm, causing it to lose existing
or potential customers. Reputational damage could also result in diminished investor confidence. Actual or perceived vulnerabilities
may also lead to claims against the Company. Although its license agreements typically contain provisions that eliminate or limit
its exposure to such liability, there is no assurance these provisions will withstand legal challenges. The Company could also incur
significant expenses in connection with customers’ system failures.
In addition, sophisticated hardware and operating system software and applications that the Company produces or procures from
third parties may contain defects in design or manufacture, including “bugs” and other problems that could unexpectedly interfere
13
with the operation of the system. The costs to eliminate or alleviate security problems, viruses and bugs could be significant, and
the efforts to address these problems could result in interruptions, delays or cessation of service that could impede sales,
manufacturing, distribution or other critical functions.
Portions of the Company's IT infrastructure also may experience interruptions, delays or cessations of service or produce errors in
connection with systems integration or migration work that takes place from time to time. The Company may not be successful in
implementing new systems, and transitioning data and other aspects of the process could be expensive, time consuming, disruptive
and resource-intensive. Such disruptions could adversely impact the ability to fulfill orders, service customers and interrupt other
processes and, in addition, could adversely impact its ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting. Delayed
sales, lower margins, lost customers or diminished investor confidence resulting from these disruptions could adversely affect the
Company's financial results, stock price and reputation.
Privacy and information security laws are complex, and if the Company fails to comply with applicable laws, regulations and
standards, or fails to properly maintain the integrity of its data, protect its proprietary rights to its systems or defend against
cybersecurity attacks, the Company may be subject to government or private actions due to privacy and security breaches, any
of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations or materially harm
our reputation.
The Company is subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the U.S. and other countries that involve matters central to its
business, including user privacy, security, rights of publicity, data protection, content, intellectual property, distribution, electronic
contracts and other communications, competition, protection of minors, consumer protection, taxation, and online-payment
services. These laws can be particularly restrictive in countries outside the U.S. Both in the U.S. and abroad, these laws and
regulations constantly evolve and remain subject to significant change. In addition, the application and interpretation of these
laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which it operates. Because the
Company stores, processes and uses data, some of which contains personal information, it is subject to complex and evolving
federal, state, and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection, content, and other matters. Many of these laws
and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and could result in investigations, claims, changes to the
Company's business practices, increased cost of operations, and declines in user growth, retention, or engagement, any of which
could seriously harm its business.
Several proposals have recently been adopted or are currently pending before federal, state, and foreign legislative and regulatory
bodies that could significantly affect our business. The GDPR in the EU, which went into effect in May 2018, placed new data
protection obligations and restrictions on organizations and may require the Company to further change its policies and procedures.
If the Company is not compliant with GDPR requirements, it may be subject to significant fines and its business may be seriously
harmed. The California Consumer Privacy Act goes into effect in January 2020, with a lookback to January 2019, and places
additional requirements on the handling of personal data.
An inability to attract, retain and motivate key employees could harm current and future operations.
In order to be successful, the Company must attract, retain and motivate executives and other key employees, including those in
managerial, professional, administrative, technical, sales, marketing and IT support positions. It also must keep employees focused
on its strategies and goals. Hiring and retaining qualified executives, engineers and qualified sales representatives are critical to
its future, and competition for experienced employees in these areas can be intense. The failure to hire or loss of key employees
could have a significant impact on the Company's operations.
The Company may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows to fund its operations and make adequate capital investments.
The Company's cash flows from operations depend primarily on sales and service margins. To develop new service and product
technologies, support future growth, achieve operating efficiencies and maintain service and product quality, the Company must
make significant capital investments in manufacturing technology, facilities and capital equipment, R&D, and service and product
technology. In addition to cash provided from operations, the Company has from time to time utilized external sources of financing.
Depending upon general market conditions or other factors, the Company may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows to
fund its operations and make adequate capital investments, either in whole or in part. In addition, any tightening of the credit
markets may limit the Company's ability to obtain alternative sources of cash to fund its operations.
Although the Company has paid dividends on its common shares in the past, the declaration and payment of future dividends, as
well as the amount thereof, are subject to the declaration by the Company’s board of directors. The amount and size of any future
dividends will depend on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, capital levels, cash requirements, future prospects
and other factors.
14
New service and product developments may be unsuccessful.
The Company is constantly looking to develop new services and products that complement or leverage the underlying design or
process technology of its traditional service and product offerings. The Company makes significant investments in service and
product technologies and anticipates expending significant resources for new software-led services and product development
over the next several years. There can be no assurance that the Company's service and product development efforts will be
successful, that the roll out of any new services and products will be timely, that it will be able to successfully market these services
and products or that margins generated from sales of these services and products will recover costs of development efforts.
The Company's ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting may be insufficient to allow it to accurately
report its financial results or prevent fraud, and this could cause its financial statements to become materially misleading and
adversely affect the trading price of its common shares.
The Company requires effective internal control over financial reporting in order to provide reasonable assurance with respect to
its financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. Internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements
because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud.
Therefore, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements. If the Company cannot provide reasonable assurance with respect to its financial statements
and effectively prevent fraud, its financial statements could become materially misleading, which could adversely affect the trading
price of its common shares.
If the Company is not able to maintain the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting, including any failure to implement
required new or improved controls, or if the Company experiences difficulties in the implementation of or the implemented controls
required in connection with the Acquisition, its business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed. Any material
weakness could affect investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of its financial statements. As a result, the Company's
ability to obtain any additional financing, or additional financing on favorable terms, could be materially and adversely affected.
This, in turn, could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and the market value of its securities and require
it to incur additional costs to improve its internal control systems and procedures. In addition, perceptions of the Company among
customers, lenders, investors, securities analysts and others could also be adversely affected.
Management identified control deficiencies as of December 31, 2018 that constituted material weaknesses. Throughout 2018, the
Company enhanced, and will continue to enhance, its internal controls over financial reporting. The Company had ineffective
information technology general controls (ITGCs) used for financial reporting by certain entities throughout the organization,
ineffective implementation and operation of controls over inventory valuation and ineffective controls over non-routine transactions.
For more information regarding the material weaknesses refer to Item 9A of this annual report on Form 10-K. The Company is still
considering the full extent of the procedures to implement in order to remediate these material weaknesses. The Company can
give no assurances that any additional material weakness will not arise in the future due to its failure to implement and maintain
adequate internal control over financial reporting. In addition, although the Company has been successful historically in
strengthening its controls and procedures, those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities
or ensure the fair presentation of its financial statements included in its periodic reports filed with the SEC.
Low investment performance by the Company's pension plan assets may result in an increase to its net pension liability and
expense, which may require it to fund a portion of its pension obligations and divert funds from other potential uses.
The Company sponsors several defined benefit pension plans that cover certain eligible employees across the globe. The
Company's pension expense and required contributions to its pension plans are directly affected by the value of plan assets, the
projected rate of return on plan assets, the actual rate of return on plan assets and the actuarial assumptions it uses to measure
the defined benefit pension plan obligations.
A significant market downturn could occur in future periods resulting in a decline in the funded status of the Company's pension
plans and causing actual asset returns to be below the assumed rate of return used to determine pension expense. If return on
plan assets in future periods perform below expectations, future pension expense will increase.
The Company establishes the discount rate used to determine the present value of the projected and accumulated benefit
obligations at the end of each year based upon the available market rates for high-quality, fixed income investments. The Company
matches the projected cash flows of its pension plans against those generated by high-quality corporate bonds. The yield of the
resulting bond portfolio provides a basis for the selected discount rate. An increase in the discount rate would reduce the future
pension expense and, conversely, a decrease in the discount rate would increase the future pension expense.
Based on current guidelines, assumptions and estimates, including investment returns and interest rates, the Company plans to
make contributions to its pension plans as well as benefits payments directly from the Company of approximately $50 in 2019.
The Company anticipates reimbursement of approximately $13 for certain benefits paid from its trustee in 2019. Changes in the
current assumptions and estimates could result in contributions in years beyond 2019 that are greater than the projected 2019
contributions required. The Company cannot predict whether changing market or economic conditions, regulatory changes or
15
other factors will further increase its pension expenses or funding obligations, diverting funds it would otherwise apply to other
uses.
The Company's businesses are subject to inherent risks, some for which it maintains third-party insurance and some for which
it self-insures. The Company may incur losses and be subject to liability claims that could have a material adverse effect on its
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company maintains insurance policies that provide limited coverage for some, but not all, of the potential risks and liabilities
associated with its businesses. The policies are subject to deductibles and exclusions that result in the Company's retention of a
level of risk on a self-insurance basis. For some risks, the Company may not obtain insurance if it believes the cost of available
insurance is excessive relative to the risks presented. As a result of market conditions, premiums and deductibles for certain
insurance policies can increase substantially, and in some instances, certain insurance may become unavailable or available only
for reduced amounts of coverage. As a result, the Company may not be able to renew its existing insurance policies or procure
other desirable insurance on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Even where insurance coverage applies, insurers may contest
their obligations to make payments. The Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially
and adversely affected by losses and liabilities from uninsured or under-insured events, as well as by delays in the payment of
insurance proceeds, or the failure by insurers to make payments. The Company also may incur costs and liabilities resulting from
claims for damages to property or injury to persons arising from its operations.
The Company's assumptions used to determine its self-insurance liability could be wrong and materially impact its business.
The Company evaluates its self-insurance liability based on historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and
other actuarial assumptions. However, if future occurrences and claims differ from these assumptions and historical trends, the
Company's business, financial results and financial condition could be materially impacted by claims and other expenses.
An adverse determination that the Company's services, products or manufacturing processes infringe the intellectual property
rights of others, an adverse determination that a competitor has infringed its intellectual property rights, or its failure to enforce
its intellectual property rights could have a materially adverse effect on its business, operating results or financial condition.
As is common in any high technology industry, others have asserted from time to time, and may assert in the future, that the
Company's services, products or manufacturing processes infringe their intellectual property rights. A court determination that its
services, products or manufacturing processes infringe the intellectual property rights of others could result in significant liability
and/or require it to make material changes to its services, products and/or manufacturing processes. The Company is unable to
predict the outcome of assertions of infringement made against it.
The Company also seeks to enforce its intellectual property rights against infringement. In October 2015, the Company filed a
complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) and the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio alleging
that Nautilus Hyosung Inc., and its subsidiary Nautilus Hyosung America Inc., infringed upon the Company's patents. In February
2017, the ITC determined that Nautilus Hyosung products infringed two of the Company's patents and issued an exclusion order
and cease and desist order which bars the importation and sale of certain Nautilus Hyosung deposit automation enabled ATMs
and modules in the U.S. In February 2016, Nautilus Hyosung filed complaints against the Company in front of the ITC and U.S.
District Court for the Northern District of Texas alleging the Company infringed certain Nautilus Hyosung patents. Those ITC
proceedings have now concluded and the Company has successfully defeated all claims raised by Nautilus Hyosung in the ITC.
The Company will continue to vindicate its intellectual property against infringement by others.
The Company cannot predict the outcome of actions to enforce its intellectual property rights, and, although it seeks to enforce
its intellectual property rights, it cannot guarantee that it will be successful in doing so. Any of the foregoing could have a materially
adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results or financial condition.
Changes in laws or regulations or the manner of their interpretation or enforcement could adversely impact the Company's
financial performance and restrict its ability to operate its business or execute its strategies.
New laws or regulations, or changes in existing laws or regulations or the manner of their interpretation or enforcement, could
increase the Company's cost of doing business and restrict its ability to operate its business or execute its strategies. This includes,
among other things, the possible taxation under U.S. law of certain income from foreign operations, compliance costs and
enforcement under applicable securities laws, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-
Frank Act), the German Securities Trading Act (Wertpapierhandelsgesetz) and Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of April 16, 2014 as well as costs associated with complying with the Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act of 2010 and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
Economic conditions and regulatory changes leading up to and following the United Kingdom's (U.K.) likely exit from the EU
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and results of operations.
The U.K.’s anticipated exit from the EU (Brexit) and the resulting significant change to the U.K.’s relationship with the EU and with
countries outside the EU (and the laws, regulations and trade deals impacting business conducted between them) could disrupt
16
the overall economic growth or stability of the U.K. and the EU and negatively impact the Company’s European operations. The
U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of Brexit, with the U.K. due to exit the EU on March 29, 2019. In November 2018, the U.K.
and the EU agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement that set out the terms governing the U.K.’s departure, including, among
other things, a transition period to allow for a future trade deal to be agreed upon. Because the draft withdrawal agreement was
rejected by the U.K. Parliament on January 15, 2019, there is significant uncertainty about the terms and timing under which the
U.K. will leave the EU. It is possible that Brexit will result in the Company’s EU operations becoming subject to materially different,
and potentially conflicting, laws, regulations or tariffs, which could require costly new compliance initiatives or changes to legal
entity structures or operating practices. Furthermore, in the event the U.K. leaves the EU with no agreement, there may be additional
adverse impacts on immigration and trade between the U.K. and the EU or countries outside the EU.
The Company's actual operating results may differ significantly from its guidance.
From time to time, the Company releases guidance, including any guidance that it may include in the reports that it files with the
SEC regarding its future performance. This guidance, which consists of forward-looking statements, is prepared by its management
and is qualified by, and subject to, the assumptions and the other information included in this annual report on Form 10-K, as
well as the factors described under “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation —
Forward-Looking Statement Disclosure.” The Company's guidance is not prepared with a view toward compliance with published
guidelines of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and neither its independent registered public accounting
firm nor any other independent or outside party compiles or examines the guidance and, accordingly, no such person expresses
any opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.
Guidance is based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while presented with numerical specificity, are inherently
subject to business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company's control
and are based upon specific assumptions with respect to future business decisions, some of which will change. The principal
reason that the Company releases such data is to provide a basis for its management to discuss its business outlook with analysts
and investors. The Company does not accept any responsibility for any projections or reports published by any such persons.
Guidance is necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions of the guidance furnished
by the Company will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. Accordingly, the Company's guidance is only an
estimate of what management believes is realizable as of the date of release. Actual results will vary from the guidance. Investors
should also recognize that the reliability of any forecasted financial data diminishes the farther in the future that the data are
forecast. In light of the foregoing, investors are urged to put the guidance in context and not to place undue reliance on it.
Anti-takeover provisions could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire the Company.
Certain provisions of the Company's charter documents, including provisions limiting the ability of shareholders to raise matters
at a meeting of shareholders without giving advance notice, may make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of its board
of directors and may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in the Company's control or management. This could have
an adverse effect on the market price of the Company's common shares. Additionally, Ohio corporate law provides that certain
notice and informational filings and special shareholder meeting and voting procedures must be followed prior to consummation
of a proposed control share acquisition, as defined in the Ohio Revised Code. Assuming compliance with the prescribed notice
and information filings, a proposed control share acquisition may be made only if, at a special meeting of shareholders, the
acquisition is approved by both a majority of its voting power represented at the meeting and a majority of the voting power
remaining after excluding the combined voting power of the interested shares, as defined in the Ohio Revised Code. The application
of these provisions of the Ohio Revised Code also could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
(dollars in millions)
At December 31, 2018, the Company was a party to several lawsuits that were incurred in the normal course of business, none of
which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management in relation to the Company's financial position or
results of operations. In management's opinion, the Company's consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected
by the outcome of those legal proceedings, commitments, or asserted claims.
In addition to the routine legal proceedings noted above, the Company was a party to the legal proceedings described below at
December 31, 2018:
Indirect Tax Contingencies
The Company accrues non-income tax liabilities for indirect tax matters when management believes that a loss is probable and
the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are
sustained in excess of accruals, they are charged against income. In evaluating indirect tax matters, management takes into
consideration factors such as historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood
of prevailing. Management evaluates and updates accruals as matters progress over time. It is reasonably possible that some of
the matters for which accruals have not been established could be decided unfavorably to the Company and could require
recognizing future expenditures. Also, statutes of limitations could expire without the Company paying the taxes for matters for
which accruals have been established, which could result in the recognition of future gains upon reversal of these accruals at that
time.
At December 31, 2018, the Company was a party to several routine indirect tax claims from various taxing authorities globally that
were incurred in the normal course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management
in relation to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In management’s opinion, the consolidated financial
statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these indirect tax claims and/or proceedings or asserted claims.
In addition to these routine indirect tax matters, the Company was a party to the proceedings described below:
The Company has challenged multiple customs rulings in Thailand seeking to retroactively collect customs duties on previous
imports of ATMs. In August 2017, the Supreme Court of Thailand ruled in the Company's favor in one of the matters, finding that
Customs' attempt to collect duties for importation of ATMs is improper. The surviving matters remain at various stages of the
appeals process and the Company will use the Supreme Court's decision in support of its position in those matters. Management
18
remains confident that the Company has a valid legal position in these appeals. Accordingly, the Company does not have any
amount accrued for this contingency.
At December 31, 2017, the Company had an accrual related to the Brazil indirect tax of $4.9, which related to allegations of
improper importation of certain components into Brazil's free trade zone that would nullify certain indirect tax incentives. During
2018, the statute of limitations expired and the entire accrual was reversed.
A loss contingency is reasonably possible if it has a more than remote but less than probable chance of occurring. Although
management believes the Company has valid defenses with respect to its indirect tax positions, it is reasonably possible that a
loss could occur in excess of the estimated accrual. The Company estimated the aggregate risk at December 31, 2018 to be up
to $106.1 for its material indirect tax matters, of which $27.0 relates to the Thailand customs matter disclosed above. The aggregate
risk related to indirect taxes is adjusted as the applicable statutes of limitations expire.

(1) The Company calculates constant currency by translating the prior-year period results at the current year exchange rate.
Net sales decreased $30.7 or 0.7 percent including a net favorable currency impact of $55.4 primarily related to the euro, partially
offset by the Brazil real. Additionally, prior year net sales were adversely impacted $30.4 related to deferred revenue purchase
accounting adjustments (Deferred Revenue Adjustments). The following results include the impact of foreign currency and purchase
accounting adjustments:
Segments
•
Eurasia Banking net sales decreased $103.2, including a net favorable currency impact of $41.3, mainly related to the
euro. Prior year net sales were adversely impacted $18.3, including a net unfavorable currency impact of $1.4, related to
Deferred Revenue Adjustments. Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $164.2 due
to lower product volume related to fewer product deployments and projects, particularly in Thailand, Turkey, Indonesia,
the Middle East and Australia. In addition, services in India decreased as a result of a low-margin maintenance contract
roll off. Net sales declined from the Company’s strategic decision to reduce its product and services portfolio in India
and China as market conditions became less favorable. These decreases were partially offset by increased unit
replacements in Germany related to Windows 10 migrations.
• Americas Banking net sales decreased $9.9, including a net unfavorable currency impact of $20.6 related to the Brazil
real. Excluding currency, net sales increased $10.7 from higher software license volume in Brazil, professional services
volume in North America and higher product volume, particularly in Mexico, Canada and Ecuador. These increases were
partially offset by lower product volume in the U.S. as well as low-profit maintenance contract base roll offs of two
customers in North America and $4.1 of lower electronic security revenue in Chile due to the business divestiture in
September 2017.
•
Retail net sales increased $82.4, including a net favorable currency impact of $34.7 mainly related to the euro. Prior year
net sales were adversely impacted $12.1, including a net unfavorable currency impact of $1.0, related to Deferred Revenue
Adjustments. Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales increased $34.6 due to a large North

America kiosk project as well as higher POS activity in Central Eastern Europe, the U.K, France and Spain. These increases
were partially offset by lower product volume from the Eurasia non-core businesses and large prior year non-recurring
POS and kiosk activity in Germany for multiple customers as well as lower lottery equipment volume in Brazil.

Services gross margin decreased 1.8 percent including higher non routine charges of $10.9 primarily related to a spare parts
inventory provision of $24.5 and other charges of $1.6 while the prior year was adversely impacted by Deferred Revenue Adjustments
of $15.2. Restructuring was $9.5 lower compared to the prior year. Excluding non-routine and restructuring expenses, services
gross margin decreased 1.6 percent due in part to higher retail services cost in the Eurasia non-core businesses and higher one-
time banking services cost in Brazil in the second quarter of 2018. Additionally, an unfavorable customer mix on professional
services volume in Eurasia drove lower margin in the retail segment as well as an unfavorable service customer mix in the Eurasia
banking segment and higher services cost in China and Indonesia. These decreases were partially offset by a large, low-margin
maintenance contract roll off in India.
Product gross margin decreased 2.9 percent, including slightly lower non routine charges of $0.8, primarily from reduced Purchase
Accounting Adjustments of $36.4, related to amortization and prior-year Deferred Revenue Adjustments and a benefit from the
Brazil indirect tax accrual reversal of $9.0, in addition to lower integration of $0.6 and legal and consulting expense of $0.6, partially
offset by higher inventory provision charges of $45.8. Restructuring expense increased $8.9 compared to the prior year. Excluding
non-routine and restructuring expenses, product gross margin decreased 2.2 percent, primarily from an unfavorable banking
customer mix in the Americas as well as expedited freight cost from supply chain delays in the first half of 2018. Additionally, the
retail segment was impacted by an unfavorable customer mix in Brazil, related to license volume, and increased cost and unfavorable
customer mix in Eurasia. These decreases were partially offset by increased gross margin in the Eurasia banking segment primarily
from a favorable customer mix in various countries, particularly in Germany, Thailand and the Middle East.

Selling and administrative expense in 2018 decreased $48.1 including lower non-routine charges of $22.0 and higher restructuring
of $12.1. Excluding the impact of restructuring and non-routine charges and a net unfavorable currency impact of $9.6, due
primarily to the euro, selling and administrative expense was lower by $47.8, mostly from cost reduction initiatives across the
Company related to DN Now as well as an increased benefit from the mark-to-market adjustment of the legacy Wincor Nixdorf
stock option program of $3.4, partially offset by the retail segment from increased investment in the new North America retail
sales organization.
Non-routine cost in selling and administrative expenses were $153.4 and $175.4 in 2018 and 2017, respectively. The components
of the non-routine expenses in 2018 pertained to purchase accounting adjustments of $89.1 related to intangible asset amortization,
integration cost totaling $43.4, legal and consulting cost of $18.3 and executive severance of $2.7. Selling and administrative

expense included restructuring charges of $33.4 and $21.3 in 2018 and 2017, respectively, primarily due to the workforce alignment
actions under the DN Now plan.
Research, development and engineering expense in 2018 increased $1.9 due to higher restructuring cost of $4.1 and an unfavorable
currency impact of $4.4, primarily related to the euro, partially offset by lower non-routine expense of $0.3. Excluding restructuring
and the impact of currency, expense was down $6.3 mostly from DN Now initiatives and lower associate related expense.
As a result of certain impairment triggering events, the Company performed an impairment test of goodwill for its four reporting
units during the third quarter of 2018. Based on the results of the impairment testing, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill
impairment loss of $134.4 related to the Eurasia Banking, EMEA Retail and Rest of World Retail reporting units during 2018. During
the second quarter of 2018, the Company performed an impairment test of goodwill for all of its LoB reporting units due to the
change in its reportable operating segments which resulted in a $83.1 non-cash impairment loss. The year ended December 31,
2018 recorded impairment of $217.5, related to the impairment of goodwill in the second and third quarters, compared to $3.1
in the same prior year period related to information technology transformation and integration activities.
The gain on sale of assets in 2018 was primarily related to a gain on sale of buildings in North America of $4.8, the liquidation of
the Barbados operating entity of $3.3 and a gain related to a sale of a maintenance contract in Brazil and a certain China investment.
This gain on sale of assets was partially offset by the loss pertaining to a settlement of certain matters related to an Americas
divestiture in the second quarter of 2018.

increased $57.9 from lower gross profit in the retail and Americas banking segments, partially offset by higher gross profit in the
Eurasia banking segment as well as favorable selling and administrative expense attributable to DN Now initiatives.

Interest income in 2018 decreased, primarily as a result of overall lower average balances as well as lower U.S. market returns on
nonqualified plans and repatriation of cash in Brazil and EMEA. Interest expense was higher compared to the prior year due to
higher domestic interest rates and the additional $650.0 of Term Loan A-1 Facility debt with higher incremental interest rates and
related fee amortization. Miscellaneous, net in 2018 was unfavorably impacted by higher cost and lower benefits associated with
the company owned life insurance.

14.7 %
The loss before taxes and net loss increased primarily due to the reasons described above. Net loss was also impacted by the
change in the income tax expense.
The effective tax rate for 2018 was 7.2 percent and is primarily due to a goodwill impairment charge, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act (the Tax Act), valuation allowances on certain foreign and state jurisdictions, foreign tax credits and the higher interest expense
burden resulting from the debt restructuring. More specifically, the expense on the loss reflects the reduction of the U.S. federal
corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, refinement of the transition tax under U.S. SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin
(SAB) 118, a goodwill impairment charge, which for tax purposes is primarily nondeductible and the business interest deduction
limitation. As a result of the Company’s debt restructuring activity during the year, a full valuation allowance was required on the
current year nondeductible business interest expense. In addition, the overall effective tax rate is impacted by the jurisdictional
income (loss) and varying respective statutory rates.
The effective tax rate for 2017 was 14.7 percent on the overall loss from continuing operations. The U.S. enacted the Tax Act,
which was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act changed many aspects of U.S. corporate income taxation and
included a reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, implementation of a territorial tax system
and imposition of a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The resulting impact to the Company was an
estimated $45.1 reduction to deferred income taxes for the income tax rate change and an estimated one-time non-cash charge
of $36.6 related to deferred foreign earnings.
Due to the complexities involved in accounting for the recently enacted Tax Act, the SAB 118 requires that the Company include
in its financial statements the reasonable estimate of the impact of the Tax Act on earnings to the extent such reasonable estimate
has been determined. The Company recorded a reasonable estimate of such effects, the net one-time charge related to the Tax
Act may differ, possibly materially, due to, among other things, further refinement of its calculations, changes in interpretations
and assumptions, additional guidance that may be issued by the U.S. Government, and actions and related accounting policy
decisions the Company may take as a result of the Tax Act. The Company completed its analysis over a one-year measurement
period ending December 31, 2018 and any adjustments during this measurement period were included in net loss from continuing
operations as an adjustment to income tax expense in the reporting period when such adjustments are determined.

Eurasia Banking net sales decreased $103.2, including a net favorable currency impact of $41.3 mainly related to the euro. Prior
year net sales were adversely impacted $18.3, including a net unfavorable currency impact of $1.4, related to Deferred Revenue
Adjustments. Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $164.2 due to lower product volume
related to fewer product deployments and projects, particularly in Thailand, Turkey, Indonesia, the Middle East and Australia. In
addition, services in India decreased as a result of a low-margin maintenance contract roll off. In addition, net sales declined from
the Company’s strategic decision to reduce its product and services portfolio in India and China as market conditions became less
favorable. These decreases were partially offset by increased unit replacements in Germany related to Windows 10 migrations.
Segment operating profit increased $20.3, compared to the prior year, including a net favorable currency impact of $3.6. Excluding
the impact of currency, operating profit increased $16.7 mostly from lower operating expenses tied to the DN Now plan and
increased product gross profit related to higher margin pull through on a favorable customer mix, particularly in Germany, Thailand

and the Middle East. These increases were partially offset by lower services revenue and associated profit in various Asia Pacific
countries as well as higher services cost in China and Indonesia in addition to lower margin pull through on software revenue
attributable to an unfavorable customer mix and higher cost in various countries.
Segment operating profit margin increased in 2018, primarily as a result of lower operating expense related to the DN Now plan,

and higher product volume, particularly in Mexico, Canada and Ecuador. These increases were partially offset by lower product
volume in the U.S. as well as low-profit maintenance contract base roll offs of two customers in North America and $4.1 lower
electronic security revenue in Chile due to the business divestiture in September 2017.
Segment operating profit decreased $40.5, compared to the prior year including a net favorable currency impact of $0.4. Excluding
the impact of currency, operating profit decreased $40.9, adversely impacted by one-time services cost in Brazil from the second
quarter of 2018. Additionally, product gross profit decreased mostly from higher freight cost, primarily related to supply chain
delays in the first half of 2018 in North America and Mexico as well as an unfavorable customer mix in Mexico. Partially offsetting
these decreases, selling and administrative expense was lower from cost reduction initiatives related to the DN Now plan and the
Company’s annual incentive program as well as higher software gross profit from increased professional services activity in North
America.
Segment operating profit margin decreased in 2018, primarily as a result of higher freight and one time services cost in the first
three quarters of 2018, partially offset by lower selling and administrative expense.

Excluding currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales increased $34.6 due to a large North America kiosk project as
well as higher POS activity in Central Eastern Europe, the U.K, France and Spain. These increases were partially offset by lower
product volume from the Eurasia non-core businesses and large prior year non-recurring POS and kiosk activity in Germany for
multiple customers as well as lower lottery equipment volume in Brazil.
Segment operating profit decreased $37.6 compared to the prior-year including a $2.6 net favorable currency impact. Excluding
currency, Retail operating profit decreased $40.2 primarily due to the under performance from the Eurasia non-core businesses
in addition to low-margin service and product revenue unfavorably impacting gross profit in various countries in Eurasia. The
current year was also unfavorably impacted by higher selling and administrative expense from developing the North America retail
sales organization.
Segment operating profit margin decreased in 2018, primarily as a result of the under performance of the non-core businesses
and an unfavorable customer mix driving lower gross margin on higher revenue in addition to increased operating expense.

(1) The Company calculates constant currency by translating the prior-year period results at the current year exchange rate.
Net sales increased $1,293.0 or 39.0 percent, including incremental net sales from the Acquisition of $1,517.7 and a net favorable
currency impact of $88.3 primarily related to the euro and the Brazil real. 2017 net sales were adversely impacted $30.4 related
to Deferred Revenue Adjustments, which was an increase of $14.2 compared to the prior year. The amounts attributable to the
Acquisition are impacted by the alignment and integration of customer portfolios, solution offerings and operations between the
legacy companies, which may result in unfavorable comparisons to prior year. The following results include the impact of foreign
currency and purchase accounting adjustments:
Segments
•
Eurasia Banking net sales increased $670.8, which included incremental net sales from the Acquisition of $756.7, a net
favorable currency impact of $40.9 mainly related to the euro and higher Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $8.5. Excluding
the impact of the Acquisition, currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $118.3 due mostly to
lower banking product project activity in EMEA as well as unfavorable structural changes in the Asia Pacific market,
partially offset by higher managed services net sales in Asia Pacific.
• Americas Banking net sales decreased $41.7, which included incremental net sales from the Acquisition of $79.7 and a
net favorable currency impact of $15.7 mostly related to the Brazil real. Excluding the impact of the Acquisition, currency
and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $137.1 mostly attributable to decreased product volumes,
primarily in Mexico, North America and Brazil, as well as the run-off of multi-vendor service contracts in North America.
•
Retail net sales increased $663.9, which included incremental net sales from the Acquisition of $681.3, a net favorable
currency impact of $31.7 mainly related to the Brazil real and higher Deferred Revenue Adjustments of $5.7. Excluding
the impact of the Acquisition, currency and Deferred Revenue Adjustments, net sales decreased $43.4, mostly from lower
voting machine volume in Brazil, partially offset by increased services and software revenue in EMEA and higher product
volume and the associated services in Asia Pacific.

Services gross margin decreased 3.4 percent due in part to the impact of the Acquisition, which utilizes a third-party labor model
to support its services revenue stream, resulting in a dilutive effect on margins. Services gross margin was adversely impacted by
higher non-routine cost of $10.8 primarily related to purchase accounting adjustments associated with the Acquisition and higher
restructuring charges of $8.9. Additionally, gross margin was also impacted by lower contract maintenance revenue in Americas
combined with increased labor costs and investments. The labor investments are a result of higher turnover rates of technicians
and the associated training to support additional product lines.
Product gross margin increased 4.7 percent mostly as a result of lower non-routine cost of $27.8 related to higher purchase
accounting adjustments to record inventory acquired in the Acquisition at fair value in the prior year. Additionally, the incremental
gross profit associated with the Acquisition includes higher margin business across both banking and retail solutions. This increase
was partially offset by higher restructuring of $5.2.

The selling and administrative expense in 2017 increased $172.5 inclusive of incremental expenses from the Acquisition of $272.4
and a net unfavorable currency impact of $17.9. Excluding the impact of currency and the Acquisition, selling and administrative
expense decreased $117.8 from the overall cost reductions tied to DN2020 as well as lower non-routine and restructuring costs
and lower incentive compensation expense related to the Company's annual incentive plans.
Selling and administrative non-routine expenses were $175.4 and $150.8 in 2017 and 2016, respectively. The primary components
of the non-routine expenses in 2017 pertained to acquisition and divestiture costs, including related integration activities, totaling
$85.0, purchase accounting adjustments of $85.0 related to intangible asset amortization and executive severance of $5.4. The
year-over-year increase was primarily related to incremental purchase accounting and integration expenses offset by a decrease
in legal, acquisition and divestiture costs. Selling and administrative expense included restructuring charges of $21.3 and $28.8
in 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Research, development and engineering expense increased $45.3 due to incremental expense associated with the Acquisition of
$62.7. Excluding the incremental impact of the Acquisition, expense was favorably impacted by the benefits of streamlining the
cost structure as part of the Company's integration activities. Research, development and engineering expense included
restructuring reversals of $1.1 in 2017 compared to $5.1 of restructuring costs in 2016.
In 2017, the Company recorded impairments totaling $3.1 related to IT transformation and integration activities.

In 2017, the loss on sale of assets was primarily related to the divestiture of the Company's electronic security (ES) business in
Chile and from building closures in EMEA due to integration efforts. These losses were partially offset by a gain on sale of assets
primarily related to the Company's divestiture of its business in the U.K. and its ES business in Mexico.
Operating expense as a percent of net sales in 2017 was 23.7 percent compared with 26.6 percent in 2016 due to increased
revenue and overall cost reductions tied to DN2020 which more than offset the incremental operating costs from the Acquisition.

The decrease in interest income in 2017 compared with 2016 was a result of lower interest income of the Company's marketable
securities, which were primarily held for cash management in Brazil. Interest expense was higher in 2017 associated with the
financing required for the Acquisition, offset by improved interest rates from the Company's repricing certain of its debt in May
2017. Foreign exchange loss, net in 2017 was unfavorable as a result of the incremental impact of the Acquisition. Miscellaneous,
net in 2016 included a mark-to-market net gain of $9.2 associated with the Company's foreign currency option contracts entered
and foreign currency forward contract and $6.3 in financing fees related to the Company’s bridge financing required for the
Acquisition.

The effective tax rate for 2017 was 14.7 percent on the overall loss from continuing operations. The Tax Act changed many aspects
of U.S. corporate income taxation and included a reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent,
implementation of a territorial tax system and imposition of a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The
resulting impact to the Company is an estimated $45.1 reduction to deferred income taxes for the income tax rate change and
an estimated one-time, non-cash charge of $36.6 related to deferred foreign earnings.

The effective tax rate benefit for 2016 of 27.7 percent on the overall loss from continued operations. The benefit on the overall
loss was negatively impacted by the Acquisition including a valuation allowance for certain post-acquisition losses and non-
deductible acquisition related expenses. The overall effective tax rate was decreased further by the jurisdictional income (loss)
and varying respective statutory rates within the acquired entities.
Equity in (loss) earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries, net consisted primarily of income from the Aisino and Inspur strategic
alliances in China.

Segment operating profit increased $38.6 including an incremental impact from the Acquisition of $98.7 in 2017. Excluding the
incremental portion from the Acquisition, operating profit decreased $60.1 in 2017 mostly from lower product gross profit driven
by declined project activity as well as unfavorable structural changes in the Asia Pacific market and higher operating expense. The
unfavorable product gross profit and operating expense was partially offset by higher software and services gross profit.
Segment operating profit margin decreased due in part to the impact of the Acquisition, which utilizes a higher third-party labor

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Capital resources are obtained from income retained in the business, borrowings under the Company’s senior notes, committed
and uncommitted credit facilities and operating and capital leasing arrangements. Management expects that the Company’s capital
resources will be sufficient to finance planned working capital needs, R&D activities, investments in facilities or equipment, pension
contributions, the payment of guaranteed dividends and any repurchases of the Company’s common shares for at least the next
12 months. The Company had $105.3 and $8.0 of restricted cash at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, primarily related
to the acquisition of the remaining shares in Diebold Nixdorf AG. At December 31, 2018, $386.6 or 94.8 percent of the Company’s
cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments reside in international tax jurisdictions. Repatriation of certain international
held funds could be negatively impacted by potential payments for certain foreign taxes. The Company has earnings in certain
jurisdictions available for repatriation of $1,364.3 with no additional tax expense primarily as a result of the Tax Act. The Company
has made acquisitions in the past and may make acquisitions in the future. Part of the Company's strategy is to optimize the
business portfolio through divestitures and complementary acquisitions. The Company intends to finance any future acquisitions
with cash and short-term investments, cash provided from operations, borrowings under available credit facilities, proceeds from
debt or equity offerings and/or the issuance of common shares.
The Company's total cash and cash availability as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 was as follows:

DIEBOLD NIXDORF, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

(in millions, except per share amounts)
During 2018, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased $77.5 primarily due to operating activities as well as payments
of $47.2, $62.1, $129.6 and $64.9 for integration initiatives, restructuring programs, interest on debt and income taxes, respectively.
These uses were offset by the cash provided by financing and investing activities related to the proceeds received from the Term
A-1 Loan Facility and proceeds from the monetization of the company owned life insurance plans.
Operating Activities. Cash flows from operating activities can fluctuate significantly from period to period as working capital needs
and the timing of payments for income taxes, restructuring activities, pension funding and other items impact reported cash flows.
Net cash used by operating activities was $104.1 for the year ended December 31, 2018, a decrease of $141.2 from $37.1 cash
provided for the year ended December 31, 2017. The overall decrease was primarily due to deferred revenue and finance receivables
combined with an increased operating loss primarily from integration initiatives and restructuring programs. These decreases were
partially offset by lower working capital balances. Additional detail is included below:
• Cash flows from continuing operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the year ended
December 31, 2017 were impacted by a $352.1 increase in loss from continuing operations, net of tax. Refer to Results
of Operations discussed above for further discussion of the Company's loss from continuing operations, net of tax.
•
The net aggregate of trade accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable provided $11.4 and $39.4 in operating
cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease is primarily a result of increased
cash utilization by accounts payable as a result of critical supplier payments that were made in the current year caused
by reduced terms and vendor collection efforts in the second half of the year. Inventory cash use increased compared to
the prior year due to increased build up of inventory to satisfy various customer demand. Partially offsetting the changes
in inventory and accounts payable, the increase in cash provided by trade receivables was primarily related to higher cash
collected in connection with the Company's DN Now working capital management initiative.
• Deferred revenue used $42.4 of operating cash during the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to a $26.0 provide
in the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease in cash flow associated with deferred revenue is related to lower
customer prepayments primarily in the Americas compared to the prior year as certain customers switched from a yearly
prepayment to quarterly or monthly installments.
•
•
The aggregate of income taxes and deferred income taxes used $61.3 of operating cash during the year ended December
31, 2018, compared to $22.1 used in 2017. Refer to note 4 for additional discussion on income taxes.
In the aggregate, the other combined certain assets and liabilities used $23.5 and $89.2 in 2018 and 2017, respectively.
The decreased use of $65.7 in 2018 primarily due to lower payments related to restructuring and integration and the
timing of payments related to VAT and deferred costs. These decreases were partially offset by non-cash changes in
accruals for cash compensation plans and insurance.
The most significant changes in adjustments to net income include the goodwill impairment and non-routine inventory charge.
The goodwill impairment of $217.5 in 2018 compared to $3.1 asset impairment in 2017. The inventory charge of $74.5 in 2018
relates to the Company's focus on streamlining its product portfolio and harvesting inventory resulting in the increased non-cash
inventory charge. Other significant items include depreciation and amortization expense and additional share-based compensation
expense.
Investing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities was $34.4 for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to net
cash used in investing activities of $120.8 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The $155.2 change was primarily due to the
monetization of the Company's investment in the company owned life insurance plans, utilization of short-term investments in
Brazil for cash needs across the organization and a decrease in cash spent on capital expenditures. The maturities and purchases
of investments primarily related to short-term investment activity in Brazil and for 2017 also include the Company's investment in
Kony. The proceeds from the sale of assets primarily include cash from the sale of a building in North America for 2018 and
divestitures of the legacy Diebold business in the U.K. and the ES businesses located in Mexico and Chile in 2017.
The Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $80 in 2019 to be utilized for improvements to the Company's
product line. Currently, the Company finances these investments primarily with funds provided by income retained in the business,
borrowings under the Company's committed and uncommitted credit facilities, and operating and capital leasing arrangements.
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $10.9 for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to net
cash used by financing activities of $63.7 for the year ended 2017, a change of $74.6. The increase was primarily due to an additional
$650.0 in proceeds received from the Term Loan A-1 Facility and an increase in net borrowings of the Revolving Facility. The
increase in borrowings were partially offset by $337.7 in debt repayments and higher cash distributions primarily related to the
redemption of shares and cash compensation to Diebold Nixdorf AG minority shareholders of $377.2 compared to $17.6 in 2017.
Refer to note 11 for details of the Company's cash flows related to debt borrowings and repayments.

(in millions, except per share amounts)
Benefit Plans. The Company plans to make contributions to its retirement plans as well as benefits payments directly from the
Company of approximately $50 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company anticipates reimbursement of
approximately $13 for certain benefits paid from its trustee in 2019. Beyond 2019, minimum statutory funding requirements for
the Company's U.S. pension plans may become more significant. The actual amounts required to be contributed are dependent
upon, among other things, interest rates, underlying asset returns and the impact of legislative or regulatory actions related to
pension funding obligations. The Company has adopted a pension investment policy designed to achieve an adequate funded
status based on expected benefit payouts and to establish an asset allocation that will meet or exceed the return assumption while
maintaining a prudent level of risk. The plan's target asset allocation adjusts based on the plan's funded status. As the funded
status improves or declines, the debt security target allocation will increase and decrease, respectively. Management monitors
assumptions used for our actuarial projections as well as any funding requirements for the plans.
Payments due under the Company's other post-retirement benefit plans are not required to be funded in advance. Payments are
made as medical costs are incurred by covered retirees and are principally dependent upon the future cost of retiree medical
benefits under these plans. The Company expects the other post-retirement benefit plan payments to be approximately $1 in
2019. Refer to note 15 for further discussion of the Company's pension and other post-retirement benefit plans.
Dividends. The Company paid dividends of $7.7, $30.6 and $64.6 in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016,
respectively. Annualized dividends per share were $0.10, $0.40 and $0.96 for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and
2016, respectively. In May 2018, the Company announced its decision to reallocate future dividend funds towards debt reduction
and other capital resource needs.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. The Company enters into various arrangements not recognized in the consolidated balance
sheets that have or could have an effect on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital
resources. The principal off-balance sheet arrangements that the Company enters into are guarantees, operating leases (refer to
note 9) and sales of finance receivables. The Company provides its global operations guarantees and standby letters of credit
through various financial institutions to suppliers, customers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers. If the Company is not
able to comply with its contractual obligations, the suppliers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers may draw on the pertinent
bank (refer to note 17 ). The Company has sold finance receivables to financial institutions while continuing to service the receivables.
The Company records these sales by removing finance receivables from the consolidated balance sheets and recording gains and
losses in the consolidated statement of operations (refer to note 7).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS as of December 31, 2018
DIEBOLD NIXDORF, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
(unaudited)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s
consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These
estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets
and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include revenue recognition, the valuation of trade
and financing receivables, inventories, goodwill, intangible assets, other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, guarantee
obligations, and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, pension and post-retirement benefits and customer incentives,
among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates
its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors. Management monitors the
economic conditions and other factors and will adjust such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As
future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, which is contained
in Item 8 of this annual report on Form 10-K. Management believes that, of its significant accounting policies, its policies concerning
revenue recognition, allowances for credit losses, inventory reserves, goodwill, long-lived assets, taxes on income, contingencies
and pensions and post-retirement benefits are the most critical because they are affected significantly by judgments, assumptions
and estimates. Additional information regarding these policies is included below.
Revenue Recognition. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts
collected on behalf of third parties. The amount of consideration can vary depending on discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price
concessions, incentives, performance bonuses, penalties, or other similar items contained in the contract with the customer of
which generally these variable consideration components represents minimal amount of net sales. The Company recognizes
revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer.
The Company's payment terms vary depending on the individual contracts and are generally fixed fee. The Company recognizes
advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized as deferred revenue. In certain contracts where services are provided
prior to billing, the Company recognizes a contract asset within trade receivables and other current assets.
Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction
and that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.
The Company recognizes shipping and handling fees billed when products are shipped or delivered to a customer and includes
such amounts in net sales. Although infrequent, shipping and handling associated with outbound freight after control over a
product has transferred to a customer is not a separate performance obligation, rather is accounted for as a fulfillment cost. Third-
party freight payments are recorded in cost of sales.
The Company includes a warranty in connection with certain contracts with customers, which are not considered to be separate
performance obligations. The Company provides its customers a manufacturer’s warranty and records, at the time of the sale, a
corresponding estimated liability for potential warranty costs. For additional information on product warranty refer to note 9. The
Company also has extended warranty and service contracts available for its customers, which are recognized as separate
performance obligations. Revenue is recognized on these contracts ratably as the Company has a stand-ready obligation to provide
services when or as needed by the customer. This input method is the most accurate assessment of progress toward completion
the Company can apply.
Product revenue is recognized at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the product, which could be upon delivery
or upon completion of installation services, depending on contract terms. The Company’s software licenses are functional in nature
(the IP has significant stand-alone functionality); as such, the revenue recognition of distinct software license sales is at the point
in time that the customer obtains control of the rights granted by the license.
Professional services integrate the commercial solution with the customer's existing infrastructure and helps define the optimal
user experience, improve business processes, refine existing staffing models and deploy technology to meet branch and store
automation objectives. Revenue from professional services are recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives
and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the services are performed or when the Company’s performance
creates an asset with no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to
date. Generally revenue will be recognized using an input measure, typically costs incurred. The typical contract length for service
is generally one year and is billed and paid in advance except for installations, among others.

Services may be sold separately or in bundled packages. For bundled packages, the Company accounts for individual services
separately if they are distinct. A distinct service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package if a customer
can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The consideration (including any
discounts) is allocated between separate services or distinct obligations in a bundle based on their stand-alone selling prices. The
stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells the products or services. For
items that are not sold separately, the Company estimates stand-alone selling prices using the cost plus expected margin approach.
Revenue on service contracts is recognized ratably over time, generally using an input measure, as the customer simultaneously
receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the services are performed. In some circumstances, when
global service supply chain services are not included in a term contract and rather billed as they occur, revenue on these billed
work services are recognized at a point in time as transfer of control occurs.
The following is a description of principal solutions offered within the Company's two main industry segments that generate the
Company's revenue.
Banking
Products. Products for banking customers consist of cash recyclers and dispensers, intelligent deposit terminals, teller automation
tools and kiosk technologies, as well as physical security solutions. The Company provides its banking customers front-end
applications for consumer connection points and back-end platforms that manage channel transactions, operations and integration
and facilitate omnichannel transactions, endpoint monitoring, remote asset management, customer marketing, merchandise
management and analytics. These offerings include highly configurable, API enabled software that automates legacy banking
transactions across channels.
Services. The Company provides its banking customers product-related services which include proactive monitoring and rapid
resolution of incidents through remote service capabilities or an on-site visit. First and second line maintenance, preventive
maintenance and on-demand services keep the distributed assets of the Company's customers up and running through a
standardized incident management process. Managed services and outsourcing consists of the end-to-end business processes,
solution management, upgrades and transaction processing. The Company also provides a full array of cash management services,
which optimizes the availability and cost of physical currency across the enterprise through efficient forecasting, inventory and
replenishment processes.
Retail
Products. The retail product portfolio includes modular, integrated and mobile POS and SCO terminals that meet evolving
automation and omnichannel requirements of consumers. Supplementing the POS system is a broad range of peripherals, including
printers, scales and mobile scanners, as well as the cash management portfolio which offers a wide range of banknote and coin
processing systems. Also in the portfolio, the Company provides SCO terminals and ordering kiosks which facilitate an efficient
and user-friendly purchasing experience. The Company’s hybrid product line can alternate from an attended operator to self-
checkout with the press of a button as traffic conditions warrant throughout the business day.
The Company's platform software is installed within retail data centers to facilitate omnichannel transactions, endpoint monitoring,
remote asset management, customer marketing, merchandise management and analytics.
Services. The Company provides its retail customers product-related services which include on-demand services and professional
services. Diebold Nixdorf AllConnect Services for retailers include maintenance and availability services to continuously improve
retail self-service fleet availability and performance. These include: total implementation services to support both current and new
store concepts; managed mobility services to centralize asset management and ensure effective, tailored mobile capability;
monitoring and advanced analytics providing operational insights to support new growth opportunities; and store life-cycle
management to proactively monitors store IT endpoints and enable improved management of internal and external suppliers and
delivery organizations.
Inventory Reserves. At each reporting period, the Company identifies and writes down its excess and obsolete inventories to net
realizable value based on usage forecasts, order volume and inventory aging. With the development of new products, the Company
also rationalizes its product offerings and will write-down discontinued product to the lower of cost or net realizable value. The
Company’s significant accounting policies and inventories are described in notes 1 and 5.
Acquisitions and Divestitures. Acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. This method requires the
Company to record assets and liabilities of the business acquired at their estimated fair market values as of the acquisition date.
Any excess cost of the acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The Company generally
uses valuation specialists to perform appraisals and assist in the determination of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS as of December 31, 2018
DIEBOLD NIXDORF, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
(unaudited)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
assumed. These valuations require management to make estimates and assumptions that are critical in determining the fair values
of the assets and liabilities.
For all divestitures, the Company considers assets to be held for sale when management approves and commits to a formal plan
to actively market the assets for sale at a price reasonable in relation to their estimated fair value, the assets are available for
immediate sale in their present condition, an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the sale
have been initiated, the sale of the assets is probable and expected to be completed within one year (or, if it is expected that
others will impose conditions on the sale of the assets that will extend the period required to complete the sale, that a firm purchase
commitment is probable within one year) and it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan. Upon designation as
held for sale, the Company records the assets at the lower of their carrying value or their estimated fair value, reduced for the cost
to dispose of the assets, and ceases to record depreciation expense on the assets. Assets and liabilities are reclassified as held for
sale in the period the held for sale criteria are met.
The Company reports financial results for discontinued operations separately from continuing operations to distinguish the financial
impact of a divestiture from ongoing operations. Discontinued operations reporting occurs only when the disposal of a component
or a group of components of the Company represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations
and financial results. For those divestitures that qualify as discontinued operations, all comparative periods presented are reclassified
in the consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, the results of operations of a discontinued operation are reclassified to income
from discontinued operations, net of tax, for all periods presented.
As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $81.5 and $33.2 of current assets and liabilities held for sale, respectively, primarily
related to non-core businesses in Europe and the Americas. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had $2.1 of current assets
held for sale primarily related to a building in North America. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company classified its NA ES
business as held for sale which also met the discontinued operations criteria. The divestiture of its NA ES business closed on
February 1, 2016. Accordingly, operating results and operating and investing cash flows for are presented as discontinued operations
separate from the Company’s continuing operations for all periods presented.
Goodwill. Goodwill is the cost in excess of the net assets of acquired businesses (refer to note 8). The Company tests all existing
goodwill at least annually as of October 31 for impairment on a reporting unit basis. The Company tests for interim impairment
between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the carrying value of a
reporting unit below its reported amount. Beginning with the second quarter of 2018, the Company’s reportable operating segments
are based on the conclusion of the assessment on the following solutions: Eurasia Banking, Americas Banking and Retail with
comparative periods reclassified for consistency. Each year, the Company may elect to perform a qualitative assessment to
determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. In evaluating whether
it is more likely than not the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company considers the following
events and circumstances, among others, if applicable: (a) macroeconomic conditions such as general economic conditions,
limitations on accessing capital or other developments in equity and credit markets; (b) industry and market considerations such
as competition, multiples or metrics and changes in the market for the Company's products and services or regulatory and political
environments; (c) cost factors such as raw materials, labor or other costs; (d) overall financial performance such as cash flows, actual
and planned revenue and earnings compared with actual and projected results of relevant prior periods; (e) other relevant events
such as changes in key personnel, strategy or customers; (f) changes in the composition of a reporting unit's assets or expected
sales of all or a portion of a reporting unit; and (g) any sustained decrease in share price.
If the Company's qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than
its carrying value, or if management elects to perform a quantitative assessment of goodwill, an impairment test is used to identify
potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of any impairment loss to be recognized. The Company compares the
fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying value and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying
amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The fair value of the reporting units is determined based upon a combination of
the income valuation and market approach in valuation methodology. The income approach uses discounted estimated future
cash flows, whereas the market approach or guideline public company method utilizes market data of similar publicly traded
companies. The fair value of the reporting unit is defined as the price that would be received to sell the net assets or transfer the
net liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the assessment date.
The techniques used in the Company's qualitative assessment incorporate a number of assumptions that the Company believes
to be reasonable and to reflect market conditions forecast at the assessment date. Assumptions in estimating future cash flows
are subject to a high degree of judgment. The Company makes all efforts to forecast future cash flows as accurately as possible
with the information available at the time the forecast is made. To this end, the Company evaluates the appropriateness of its
assumptions as well as its overall forecasts by comparing projected results of upcoming years with actual results of preceding years
and validating that differences therein are reasonable. Key assumptions, all of which are Level 3 inputs, relate to price trends,
material costs, discount rate, customer demand and the long-term growth and foreign exchange rates. A number of benchmarks
from independent industry and other economic publications were also used. Changes in assumptions and estimates after the

(in millions, except per share amounts)
assessment date may lead to an outcome where impairment charges would be required in future periods. Specifically, actual results
may vary from the Company’s forecasts and such variations may be material and unfavorable, thereby triggering the need for future
impairment tests where the conclusions may differ in reflection of prevailing market conditions.
Long-Lived Assets. Impairment of long-lived assets is recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying
amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized at that time to reduce the asset to the lower of its fair value or its net book
value. The Company tests all existing indefinite-lived intangibles at least annually for impairment as of October 31.
Taxes on Income. Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for
deductible temporary differences, operating loss carry-forwards and tax credits. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences and undistributed earnings in certain jurisdictions. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance
when, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Determination of a valuation allowance involves estimates regarding the timing and amount of the reversal of taxable
temporary differences, expected future taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company operates in numerous taxing jurisdictions and is subject to examination by various federal, state and foreign
jurisdictions for various tax periods. Additionally, the Company has retained tax liabilities and the rights to tax refunds in connection
with various acquisitions and divestitures of businesses. The Company’s income tax positions are based on research and
interpretations of the income tax laws and rulings in each of the jurisdictions in which the Company does business. Due to the
subjectivity of interpretations of laws and rulings in each jurisdiction, the differences and interplay in tax laws between those
jurisdictions, as well as the inherent uncertainty in estimating the final resolution of complex tax audit matters, the Company’s
estimates of income tax liabilities may differ from actual payments or assessments.
The Company assesses its position with regard to tax exposures and records liabilities for these uncertain tax positions and any
related interest and penalties, when the tax benefit is not more likely than not realizable. The Company has recorded an accrual
that reflects the recognition and measurement process for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position
taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additional future income tax expense or benefit may be recognized once the
positions are effectively settled.
At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company estimates the effective tax rate expected to apply to the full fiscal year.
The estimated effective tax rate contemplates the expected jurisdiction where income is earned, as well as tax planning alternatives.
Current and projected growth in income in higher tax jurisdictions may result in an increasing effective tax rate over time. If the
actual results differ from estimates, the Company may adjust the effective tax rate in the interim period if such determination is
made.
Contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties and other sources
are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred
in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. There is no liability recorded for matters in which the liability is
not probable and reasonably estimable. Attorneys in the Company's legal department monitor and manage all claims filed against
the Company and review all pending investigations. Generally, the estimate of probable loss related to these matters is developed
in consultation with internal and outside legal counsel representing the Company. These estimates are based upon an analysis of
potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. The Company attempts to resolve these matters
through settlements, mediation and arbitration proceedings when possible. If the actual settlement costs, final judgments, or fines,
after appeals, differ from the estimates, the future results may be materially impacted. Adjustments to the initial estimates are
recorded when a change in the estimate is identified.
Pensions and Other Post-retirement Benefits. Annual net periodic expense and benefit liabilities under the Company’s defined
benefit plans are determined on an actuarial basis. Assumptions used in the actuarial calculations have a significant impact on plan
obligations and expense. Members of the management investment committee periodically review the actual experience compared
with the more significant assumptions used and make adjustments to the assumptions, if warranted. The discount rate is determined
by analyzing the average return of high-quality (i.e., AA-rated), fixed-income investments and the year-over-year comparison of
certain widely used benchmark indices as of the measurement date. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is
determined using the plans’ current asset allocation and their expected rates of return based on a geometric averaging over
20 years. The rate of compensation increase assumptions reflects the Company’s long-term actual experience and future and near-
term outlook. Pension benefits are funded through deposits with trustees. Other post-retirement benefits are not funded and the
Company’s policy is to pay these benefits as they become due.

During 2017, the Society of Actuaries released a new mortality improvement projection scale (MP-2017) resulting from recent
studies measuring mortality rates for various groups of individuals. As of December 31, 2017, the Company adopted for the pension
plan in the U.S. the use of the RP-2014 base mortality table modified to remove the post-2006 projections using the MP-2014
mortality improvement scale and replacing it with projections using the fully generational MP-2017 projection scale. For the plans
outside the U.S., the mortality tables used are those either required or customary for local accounting and/or funding purposes.

ITEM 7A: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
(dollars in millions, except per share amounts)
The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent in its international operations denominated in currencies
other than the U.S. dollar. A hypothetical 10 percent movement in the applicable foreign exchange rates would have resulted in
an increase or decrease in 2018 year-to-date operating profit of $11.1 and $9.1, respectively, and $21.8 and $17.8 for year-to-
date 2017. The sensitivity model assumes an instantaneous, parallel shift in the foreign currency exchange rates. Exchange rates
rarely move in the same direction. The assumption that exchange rates change in an instantaneous or parallel fashion may overstate
the impact of changing exchange rates on amounts denominated in a foreign currency.
The Company’s risk-management strategy uses derivative financial instruments such as forwards to hedge certain foreign currency
exposures. The intent is to offset gains and losses that occur on the underlying exposures with gains and losses on the derivative
contracts hedging these exposures. The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading purposes. The Company’s primary
exposures to foreign exchange risk are movements in the euro, GBP, Canada dollar, Brazil real, Thailand baht, Mexico peso and
China yuan renminbi.
The Company manages interest rate risk with the use of variable rate borrowings under its committed and uncommitted credit
facilities and interest rate swaps. Variable rate borrowings under the credit facilities totaled $1,914.4 and $1,504.0 of which $400.0
were effectively converted to fixed rate using interest rate swaps at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. A one percentage
point increase or decrease in interest rates would have resulted in an increase or decrease in interest expense of $14.6 and $10.5
for 2018 and 2017, respectively, including the impact of the swap agreements. The Company’s primary exposure to interest rate
risk is movements in the LIBOR, which is consistent with prior periods.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for
revenue recognition in 2018 due to the adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the
PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws
and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material
misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond
to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated:
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated and subsidiaries’ (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weaknesses,
described below, on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has not maintained effective
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated
Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated
statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated
March 1, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there
is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis. Material weaknesses related to ineffective controls over information technology
general controls related to user access, inventory valuation, and non-routine transactions have been identified and included in
management’s assessment. These material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit
tests applied in our audit of the 2018 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report on those
consolidated financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report
on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

FORM 10-K as of December 31, 2018
(in millions, except per share amounts)
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated and its
wholly- and majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Company). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated, including common control transfers among subsidiaries of the Company.
Use of Estimates in Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These
estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets
and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include revenue recognition, the valuation of
trade and financing receivables, inventories, goodwill, intangible assets, other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, guarantee
obligations and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, pension and other post-retirement benefits and customer
incentives, among others. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment.
Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors.
Management monitors the economic condition and other factors and will adjust such estimates and assumptions when facts and
circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly
from these estimates.
Error Correction. During 2018, the Company identified immaterial errors in prior periods presented for certain inventory balances,
goodwill and various other items. Management determined these errors were not material to any prior period and the accompanying
consolidated financial statements for 2017 and 2016 have been adjusted. These corrections were recorded within the Company's
Eurasia Banking, Americas Banking and Retail reportable operating segments. As a result of applying the corrections retrospectively,
previously reported balances within certain financial statement line items were increased (decreased) as follows:
Results of operations
Cost of sales - Services
Cost of sales - Products

The errors described above primarily related to repairable service parts inventory as well as various other items. Refer to note 5
for further details on the major classes of inventories. The Company also re-allocated goodwill to its reporting units used in the
computation of the impairment analysis which resulted in a changes to the non-cash impairment loss recorded in the second and
third quarters of 2018. Refer to note 8 for further details related to impairment of assets. Retained earnings at January 1, 2016
was reduced by $7.5 as a result of the retrospective corrections. There was no impact of the correction on previously reported
cash flows from operations for the prior periods.
Reclassification. In connection with recent changes in the Company's leadership, beginning with the second quarter of 2018, the
Company's reportable operating segments are based on the following solutions: Eurasia Banking, Americas Banking and Retail.
As a result, the Company reclassified comparative periods for consistency.
The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior-year information to conform to the current presentation. The
Company reclassified $8.0 from other current assets to restricted cash as of December 31, 2017 in the consolidated balance sheets

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
and was included in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of December 31, 2017 in the consolidated statements of cash
flows.
International Operations. The financial statements of the Company’s international operations are measured using local currencies
as their functional currencies, with the exception of certain financial results from Venezuela, Mexico, Argentina, Singapore and
Switzerland, which have a functional currency other than local currency. These operations used either United States dollar (USD)
or euro as their functional currency depending on the concentration of USD or euro transactions and distinct financial information.
The Company translates the assets and liabilities of its non-U.S. subsidiaries at the exchange rates in effect at year end and the
results of operations at the average rate throughout the year. The translation adjustments are recorded directly as a separate
component of shareholders’ equity, while transaction gains (losses) are included in net income.
Acquisitions and Divestitures. Acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. This method requires the
Company to record assets and liabilities of the business acquired at their estimated fair market values as of the acquisition date.
Any excess cost of the acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The Company generally
uses valuation specialists to perform appraisals and assist in the determination of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities
assumed. These valuations require management to make estimates and assumptions that are critical in determining the fair values
of the assets and liabilities.
For all divestitures, the Company considers assets to be held for sale when management approves and commits to a formal plan
to actively market the assets for sale at a price reasonable in relation to their estimated fair value, the assets are available for
immediate sale in their present condition, an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the sale
have been initiated, the sale of the assets is probable and expected to be completed within one year (or, if it is expected that
others will impose conditions on the sale of the assets that will extend the period required to complete the sale, that a firm purchase
commitment is probable within one year) and it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan. Upon designation as
held for sale, the Company records the assets at the lower of their carrying value or their estimated fair value, reduced for the cost
to dispose of the assets, and ceases to record depreciation expense on the assets. Assets and liabilities are reclassified as held
for sale in the period the held for sale criteria are met.
The Company reports financial results for discontinued operations separately from continuing operations to distinguish the financial
impact of a divestiture from ongoing operations. Discontinued operations reporting occurs only when the disposal of a component
or a group of components of the Company represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations
and financial results. For those divestitures that qualify as discontinued operations, all comparative periods presented are reclassified
in the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, the results of operations of a discontinued operation are reclassified to income
from discontinued operations, net of tax, for all periods presented.
As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $81.5 and $33.2 of current assets and liabilities held for sale, respectively, primarily
related to non-core businesses in Europe and the Americas. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had $2.1 of current assets
held for sale primarily related to a building in North America. The Company closed it divestiture of the NA ES business on February
1, 2016 and included its operating results and operating and investing cash flows in discontinued operations for 2016.
Revenue Recognition. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts
collected on behalf of third parties. The amount of consideration can vary depending on discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price
concessions, incentives, performance bonuses, penalties, or other similar items contained in the contract with the customer of
which generally these variable consideration components represents minimal amount of net sales. The Company recognizes
revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer.
The Company's payment terms vary depending on the individual contracts and are generally fixed fee. The Company recognizes
advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized as deferred revenue. In certain contracts where services are
provided prior to billing, the Company recognizes a contract asset within trade receivables and other current assets.
Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction
and that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.
The Company recognizes shipping and handling fees billed when products are shipped or delivered to a customer and includes
such amounts in net sales. Although infrequent, shipping and handling associated with outbound freight after control over a
product has transferred to a customer is not a separate performance obligation, rather it is accounted for as a fulfillment cost.
Third-party freight payments are recorded in cost of sales.
The Company includes a warranty in connection with certain contracts with customers, which are not considered to be separate
performance obligations. The Company provides its customers a manufacturer’s warranty and records, at the time of the sale, a
corresponding estimated liability for potential warranty costs. For additional information on product warranty refer to note 9. The
53

FORM 10-K as of December 31, 2018
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
Company also has extended warranty and service contracts available for its customers, which are recognized as separate
performance obligations. Revenue is recognized on these contracts ratably as the Company has a stand-ready obligation to provide
services when or as needed by the customer. This input method is the most accurate assessment of progress toward completion
the Company can apply.
Nature of goods and services
Product revenue is recognized at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the product, which could be upon delivery
or upon completion of installation services, depending on contract terms. The Company’s software licenses are functional in nature
(the IP has significant stand-alone functionality); as such, the revenue recognition of distinct software license sales is at the point
in time that the customer obtains control of the rights granted by the license.
Professional services integrate the commercial solution with the customer's existing infrastructure and helps define the optimal
user experience, improve business processes, refine existing staffing models and deploy technology to meet branch and store
automation objectives. Revenue from professional services are recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives
and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the services are performed or when the Company’s performance
creates an asset with no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to
date. Generally revenue will be recognized using an input measure, typically costs incurred. The typical contract length for service
is generally one year and is billed and paid in advance except for installations, among others.
Services may be sold separately or in bundled packages. For bundled packages, the Company accounts for individual services
separately if they are distinct. A distinct service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package if a customer
can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The consideration (including any
discounts) is allocated between separate services or distinct obligations in a bundle based on their stand-alone selling prices. The
stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells the products or services.
For items that are not sold separately, the Company estimates stand-alone selling prices using the cost plus expected margin
approach. Revenue on service contracts is recognized ratably over time, generally using an input measure, as the customer
simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the services are performed. In some
circumstances, when global service supply chain services are not included in a term contract and rather billed as they occur, revenue
on these billed work services are recognized at a point in time as transfer of control occurs.
The following is a description of principal solutions offered within the Company's two main industry segments that generate the
Company's revenue.
Banking
Products. Products for banking customers consist of cash recyclers and dispensers, intelligent deposit terminals, teller
automation tools and kiosk technologies, as well as physical security solutions. The Company provides its banking
customers front-end applications for consumer connection points and back-end platforms that manage channel
transactions, operations and integration and facilitate omnichannel transactions, endpoint monitoring, remote asset
management, customer marketing, merchandise management and analytics. These offerings include highly configurable,
API enabled software that automates legacy banking transactions across channels.
Services. The Company provides its banking customers product-related services which include proactive monitoring and
rapid resolution of incidents through remote service capabilities or an on-site visit. First and second line maintenance,
preventive maintenance and on-demand services keep the distributed assets of the Company's customers up and running
through a standardized incident management process. Managed services and outsourcing consists of the end-to-end
business processes, solution management, upgrades and transaction processing. The Company also provides a full array
of cash management services, which optimizes the availability and cost of physical currency across the enterprise through
efficient forecasting, inventory and replenishment processes.
Retail
Products. The retail product portfolio includes modular, integrated and mobile POS and SCO terminals that meet evolving
automation and omnichannel requirements of consumers. Supplementing the POS system is a broad range of peripherals,
including printers, scales and mobile scanners, as well as the cash management portfolio which offers a wide range of
banknote and coin processing systems. Also in the portfolio, the Company provides SCO terminals and ordering kiosks
which facilitate an efficient and user-friendly purchasing experience. The Company’s hybrid product line can alternate
from an attended operator to self-checkout with the press of a button as traffic conditions warrant throughout the business
day.

(in millions, except per share amounts)
The Company's platform software is installed within retail data centers to facilitate omnichannel transactions, endpoint
monitoring, remote asset management, customer marketing, merchandise management and analytics.
Services. The Company provides its retail customers product-related services which include on-demand services and
professional services. Diebold Nixdorf AllConnect Services for retailers include maintenance and availability services to
continuously improve retail self-service fleet availability and performance. These include: total implementation services
to support both current and new store concepts; managed mobility services to centralize asset management and ensure
effective, tailored mobile capability; monitoring and advanced analytics providing operational insights to support new
growth opportunities; and store life-cycle management to proactively monitors store IT endpoints and enable improved
management of internal and external suppliers and delivery organizations.
Refer to note 20 for additional information regarding the Company's reportable operating segments, disaggregation of
net sales by segments and product solutions, net sales by geographical region and disaggregation by timing of revenue
recognition.
Contract balances
The following table provides 2018 information about receivables and deferred revenue, which represent contract liabilities from
contracts with customers:
Contract balance information
Balance at January 1
Balance at December 31
Trade Receivables
Contract liabilities
$
$
827.9 $
737.2 $
436.5
378.2
Contract assets are minimal for the periods presented. The amount of revenue recognized in 2018 from performance obligations
satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods, mainly due to the changes in the estimate of variable consideration and contract
modifications was de minimis. There have been $22.8 and $54.9 during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively,
of impairment losses recognized as bad debt related to receivables or contract assets arising from the Company's contracts with
customers.
As of January 1, 2018, the Company had $436.5 of unrecognized deferred revenue constituting the remaining performance
obligations that are either unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied). In 2018, the Company recognized revenue of $332.5 related to the
Company's deferred revenue balance at January 1, 2018.
Contract assets are the rights to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred to a customer
when that right is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Contract assets of the Company primarily relate to
the Company's rights to consideration for goods shipped and services provided but not contractually billable at the reporting
date.
The contract assets are reclassified into the receivables balance when the rights to receive payment become unconditional. Contract
liabilities are recorded for any services billed to customers and not yet recognizable if the contract period has commenced or for
the amount collected from customers in advance of the contract period commencing. In addition, contract liabilities are recorded
as advanced payments for products and other deliverables that are billed to and collected from customers prior to revenue being
recognizable.
Transaction price and variable consideration
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring
goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. This consideration can include fixed and
variable amounts and is determined at contract inception and updated each reporting period for any changes in circumstances.
The transaction price also considers variable consideration, time value of money and the measurement of any non-cash
consideration, all of which are estimated at contract inception and updated at each reporting date for any changes in circumstances.
Once the variable consideration is identified, the Company estimates the amount of the variable consideration to include in the
transaction price by using one of two methods, expected value (probability weighted methodology) or most likely amount (when
there are only two possible outcomes). The Company chooses the method expected to better predict the amount of consideration
to which it will be entitled and applies the method consistently to similar contracts. Generally, the Company applies the expected
value method when assessing variable consideration including returns and refunds.
The Company also applies the ‘as invoiced’ practical expedient in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) paragraph 606-10-55-18
related to performance obligations satisfied over time, which permits the Company to recognize revenue in the amount to which
it has a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance
55

FORM 10-K as of December 31, 2018
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
completed to date. Service revenues that are recognized ratably are primarily contracts that include first and second line
maintenance. Service revenues that are recognized using input measures include primarily preventative maintenance. The ‘as
invoiced’ practical expedient relates to the on-demand service revenue which is generally not under contract.
Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations
As of December 31, 2018, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was
approximately $2,900. The Company generally expects to recognize revenue on the remaining performance obligations over the
next twelve months. The Company enters into service agreements with cancellable terms after a certain period without penalty.
Unsatisfied obligations reflect only the obligation during the initial term. The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC
paragraph 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected
durations of one year or less.
Cost to obtain and cost to fulfill a contract
The Company has minimal cost to obtain or fulfill contracts for customers for the periods presented. The Company pays commissions
to the sales force based on multiple factors including but not limited to order entry, revenue recognition and portfolio growth.
These incremental commission fees paid to the sales force meet the criteria to be considered a cost to obtain a contract, as they
are directly attributable to a contract, incremental and management expects the fees are recoverable. The Company applies the
practical expedient and recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization
period of the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. The costs that are not capitalized are
included in cost of sales. The costs related to contracts with greater than a one-year term are immaterial and continue to be
recognized in cost of sales.
Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are
accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of sales. The Company has minimal cost for shipping and handling
costs for the periods presented.
Changes in accounting policies
Except for the changes below, the Company has consistently applied the accounting policies to all periods presented in these
consolidated financial statements.
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Updated (ASU) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),
with a date of initial application of January 1, 2018. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policy for revenue
recognition as detailed below.
The Company applied Topic 606 using the cumulative effect method — i.e., by recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying
Topic 606 as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity at January 1, 2018. Therefore, the comparative information has not
been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASU Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. The Company applied the practical
expedient related to assessment of contract modifications, whereby the Company is essentially allowed to use hindsight when
assessing the effect of a modification and accounting for the modified contract as if it existed from the beginning of the original
contract.
The details of the significant changes and quantitative impact of the changes are set out below.
Professional service contracts
Previously, the Company recognized revenue for professional services contracts either on a milestone method or completed
contract basis. Under Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to a customer. As professional services
can be highly customized for each customer, there is no alternative use for the services. When there is an enforceable right to
payment for service completed combined with no alternative use of the services, the services meet criteria for over time revenue
recognition. Revenue is recognized as the services are provided and as the customer benefits from the service. Revenue is recognized
progressively based on the costs incurred method. When the professional services are not highly customized as in basic software
installation services, customers do not take control of the services until they are completed. Therefore, the Company continues
to recognize revenue for such contracts when the services are completed and customers formally accept them.
In certain circumstances, a contract with a customer that contains a software arrangement may include provisions for customer
acceptance. In these cases, when or as the performance obligation is satisfied, the Company recognizes revenue and records a
contract asset until customer acceptance is received. Once customer acceptance is received, the contract asset is reclassified to
56
DIEBOLD NIXDORF, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-K as of December 31, 2018
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2018, contract assets related to these arrangements were minimal. In situations where
the performance obligation has not been met and the Company has not received customer acceptance, no revenue is recognized.
Customer acceptance provisions by their nature require the customer to approve that the Company has satisfied its performance
obligation and are generally standard throughout the Company's contracts with customers.
If an instance arises where the Company would recognize revenue prior to customer acceptance, which occurs primarily when the
Company provides bundled software and professional services, it is the Company's policy, pursuant to Topic 606, when or as the
performance obligation is satisfied, to recognize revenue and record a contract asset or reduce deferred revenue, as applicable,
until customer acceptance is received. Once customer acceptance is received, the contract asset is reclassified to trade receivables,
net. In these circumstances, the Company would consider ASC 606-10-55-86 and -87 and conclude that although a standard
method to transferring the software and services is not met, the standard terms of the customer acceptance provisions and favorable
history of customer acceptances support revenue recognition prior to customer acceptance. The Company also would only
recognize revenue prior to customer acceptance only if there were no remaining inputs related to performance obligation. These
instances were immaterial. For certain contracts that contain customer acceptance clauses, such as customized software
arrangements, the revenue is recognized pursuant to ASC 606-25 25-27(c) since the Company’s performance does not create an
asset with an alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
Impacts on financial statements
The following table summarize the impacts of adopting Topic 606 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and
for the period ended December 31, 2018 as if the Company continued to follow its accounting policies under the previous revenue
recognition guidance.

The impact to net sales and cost of sales would have been decreases of $18.2 and $14.2, respectively, for the year ended
December 31, 2018. The impact after tax was $(0.9) for the year ended December 31, 2018 and was primarily a result of timing
of deferred revenue related to products and software for certain amounts being recognized that would have previously been
deferred, and certain amounts being deferred that would have previously been recognized.
Cost of Sales. Cost of services sales primarily consists of fuel, parts and labor and benefits costs related to installation of products
and service maintenance contracts, including call center costs as well as costs for service parts repair centers. Cost of products
sales is primarily comprised of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacturing and distribution of products, as well
as related labor, depreciation expense and direct overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials
and supplies into finished products. Cost of products sales also includes the cost to distribute products to customers, inbound
freight costs, internal transfer costs, warehousing costs and other shipping and handling activity.
Property, plant and equipment and long-lived assets. Property, plant and equipment and long-lived assets are recorded at historical
cost, including interest where applicable.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment and long-lived assets is recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the
carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized at that time to reduce the asset to the lower of its fair value or its
net book value.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed using the straight-line method based
on the estimated useful life for each asset class. Amortization of leasehold improvements is based upon the shorter of original
terms of the lease or life of the improvement. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Generally, amortization of the
Company’s other long-term assets, such as intangible assets and capitalized computer software, is computed using the straight-
57
DIEBOLD NIXDORF, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-K as of December 31, 2018
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
line method over the life of the asset. Certain acquired technology assets utilize a double-declining method.
Fully depreciated assets are retained until disposal. Upon disposal, assets and related accumulated depreciation or amortization
are removed from the accounts and the net amount, less proceeds from disposal, is charged or credited to operations.
Advertising Costs. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and were $10.1, $11.0 and $14.0 in 2018, 2017 and 2016,
respectively.
Research, Development and Engineering. Research, development and engineering costs are expensed as incurred and were
$157.4, $155.5 and $110.2 in 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Shipping and Handling Costs. The Company recognizes shipping and handling fees billed when products are shipped or delivered
to a customer and includes such amounts in net sales. Third-party freight payments are recorded in cost of sales.
Taxes on Income. Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for
deductible temporary differences, operating loss carry-forwards and tax credits. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences and undistributed earnings in certain tax jurisdictions. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance when, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not
be realized. Determination of a valuation allowance involves estimates regarding the timing and amount of the reversal of taxable
temporary differences, expected future taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company regularly assesses its position with regard to tax exposures and records liabilities for these uncertain tax positions
and related interest and penalties, if any, when the tax benefit is not more likely than not realizable. The Company has recorded
an accrual that reflects the recognition and measurement process for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a
tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additional future income tax expense or benefit may be recognized
once the positions are effectively settled.
Sales Tax. The Company collects sales taxes from customers and accounts for sales taxes on a net basis.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash. The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three
months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company had $105.3 and $8.0 of restricted cash at December
31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Restricted cash primarily relates to the acquisition of the remaining shares in Diebold Nixdorf
AG.
Financial Instruments. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, trade receivables and accounts
payable approximated their fair value because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s risk-management
strategy utilizes derivative financial instruments such as forwards to hedge certain foreign currency exposures and interest rate
swaps to manage interest rate risk. The intent is to offset gains and losses that occur on the underlying exposures, with gains and
losses on the derivative contracts hedging these exposures. The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading purposes.
The Company recognizes all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivatives that are not
designated as hedges are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated and qualifies as a hedge, depending on the nature
of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are either offset against the change in the hedged assets or liabilities
through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.
Fair Value. The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities using one or more of the following three valuation techniques:
Valuation technique
Description
Market approach
Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or
comparable assets or liabilities.
Cost approach
Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).
Income approach
Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations.
58
DIEBOLD NIXDORF, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-K as of December 31, 2018
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
The hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value is divided into three levels:
Fair value level
Description
Level 1
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Fair value of investments categorized as level 1 are determined based on period end closing prices in
active markets. Mutual funds are valued at their net asset value (NAV) on the last day of the period.
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices
for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs, other than quoted
prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Fair value of investments categorized as level 2 are determined based on the latest available ask price
or latest trade price if listed. The fair value of unlisted securities is established by fund managers using
the latest reported information for comparable securities and financial analysis. If the manager
believes the fund is not capable of immediately realizing the fair value otherwise determined, the
manager has the discretion to determine an appropriate value. Common collective trusts are valued
at NAV on the last day of the period.
Level 3
Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data.
Fair value of investments categorized as level 3 represent the plan’s interest in private equity, hedge
and property funds. The fair value for these assets is determined based on the NAV as reported by
the underlying investment managers.
A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to
the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company uses the end of the period when determining the timing of transfers
between levels.
Short-Term Investments The Company has investments in certificates of deposit that are recorded at cost, which approximates
fair value.
Assets Held in Rabbi Trusts / Deferred Compensation The fair value of the assets held in rabbi trusts (refer to note 7 and note15) is
derived from investments in a mix of money market, fixed income and equity funds managed by Bank of America/Merrill Lynch.
The related deferred compensation liability is recorded at fair value.
Foreign Exchange Contracts The valuation of foreign exchange forward and option contracts is determined using valuation
techniques, including option models tailored for currency derivatives. These contracts are valued using the market approach
based on observable market inputs. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity,
and uses observable market-based inputs, including spot rates, foreign currency forward rates, the interest rate curve of the
domestic currency, and foreign currency volatility for the given currency pair.
Forward Contracts A substantial portion of the Company’s operations and revenues are international. As a result, changes in
foreign exchange rates can create substantial foreign exchange gains and losses from the revaluation of non-functional currency
monetary assets and liabilities.
Option Contracts A put option gives the purchaser of the option the right to sell, and the writer of the option the obligation to
buy, the underlying security at any time during the option period. A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right to
buy, and the writer of the option the obligation to sell, the underlying security at any time during the option period. The gain
or loss on these non-designated derivative instruments is reflected in other income (expense) miscellaneous, net in the Company's
consolidated statements of operations.
Interest Rate Swaps The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to
manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps
as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of
variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements
without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Carrying Value The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables
and accounts payable, approximates the carrying value due to the relative short maturity of these instruments.
Refer to note 18 for further details of assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement.
Trade Receivables. The Company evaluates the collectability of trade receivables based on a percentage of sales related to
historical loss experience and current trends. The Company will also record periodic adjustments for known events such as specific

customer circumstances and changes in the aging of accounts receivable balances. After all efforts at collection have been
unsuccessful, the account is deemed uncollectible and is written off.
Financing Receivables. The Company evaluates the collectability of notes and finance lease receivables (collectively, financing
receivables) on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates specific customer circumstances, aging of invoices, credit risk changes
and payment patterns and historical loss experience. When the collectability is determined to be at risk based on the above criteria,
the Company records the allowance for credit losses, which represents the Company’s current exposure less estimated
reimbursement from insurance claims. After all efforts at collection have been unsuccessful, the account is deemed uncollectible
and is written off.
Inventories. The Company primarily values inventories using average or standard costing utilizing lower of cost or net realizable
value. The Company identifies and writes down its excess and obsolete inventories to net realizable value based on usage forecasts,
order volume and inventory aging. With the development of new products, the Company also rationalizes its product offerings
and will write-down discontinued product to the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Deferred Revenue. Deferred revenue is recorded for any services billed to customers and not yet recognizable if the contract
period has commenced or for the amount collected from customers in advance of the contract period commencing. In addition,
deferred revenue is recorded for products and other deliverables that are billed to and collected from customers prior to revenue
being recognizable.
Goodwill. Goodwill is the cost in excess of the net assets of acquired businesses (refer to note 8). The Company tests all existing
goodwill at least annually for impairment on a reporting unit basis. The annual goodwill impairment test was performed as of
October 31 for all periods presented.
The Company tests for interim impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely
than not reduce the carrying value of a reporting unit below its reported amount. Beginning with the second quarter of 2018, the
Company’s reportable operating segments are based on the conclusion of the assessment on the following solutions: Eurasia
Banking, Americas Banking and Retail, with comparative periods, reclassified for consistency. Each year, the Company may elect
to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less
than its carrying value. In evaluating whether it is more likely than not the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying
amount, the Company considers the following events and circumstances, among others, if applicable: (a) macroeconomic conditions
such as general economic conditions, limitations on accessing capital or other developments in equity and credit markets; (b)
industry and market considerations such as competition, multiples or metrics and changes in the market for the Company's products
and services or regulatory and political environments; (c) cost factors such as raw materials, labor or other costs; (d) overall financial
performance such as cash flows, actual and planned revenue and earnings compared with actual and projected results of relevant
prior periods; (e) other relevant events such as changes in key personnel, strategy or customers; (f) changes in the composition of
a reporting unit's assets or expected sales of all or a portion of a reporting unit; and (g) any sustained decrease in share price.
If the Company's qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than
its carrying value, or if management elects to perform a quantitative assessment of goodwill, an impairment test is used to identify
potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of any impairment loss to be recognized. The Company compares the
fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying value and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying
amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The fair value of the reporting units is determined based upon a combination of
the income valuation and market approach in valuation methodology. The income approach uses discounted estimated future
cash flows, whereas the market approach or guideline public company method utilizes market data of similar publicly traded
companies. The fair value of the reporting unit is defined as the price that would be received to sell the net assets or transfer the
net liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the assessment date.
The techniques used in the Company's qualitative assessment incorporate a number of assumptions that the Company believes
to be reasonable and to reflect market conditions forecast at the assessment date. Assumptions in estimating future cash flows
are subject to a high degree of judgment. The Company makes all efforts to forecast future cash flows as accurately as possible
with the information available at the time the forecast is made. To this end, the Company evaluates the appropriateness of its
assumptions as well as its overall forecasts by comparing projected results of upcoming years with actual results of preceding years
and validating that differences therein are reasonable. Key assumptions, all of which are Level 3 inputs, relate to price trends,
material costs, discount rate, customer demand and the long-term growth and foreign exchange rates. A number of benchmarks
from independent industry and other economic publications were also used. Changes in assumptions and estimates after the
assessment date may lead to an outcome where impairment charges would be required in future periods. Specifically, actual
results may vary from the Company’s forecasts and such variations may be material and unfavorable, thereby triggering the need
for future impairment tests where the conclusions may differ in reflection of prevailing market conditions.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
Contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties and other sources
are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. As additional
information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary.
Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
Pensions and Other Post-retirement Benefits. Annual net periodic expense and benefit liabilities under the Company’s defined
benefit plans are determined on an actuarial basis. Assumptions used in the actuarial calculations have a significant impact on
plan obligations and expense. Members of the management investment committee periodically review the actual experience
compared with the more significant assumptions used and make adjustments to the assumptions, if warranted. The healthcare
trend rates are reviewed based upon the results of actual claims experience. The discount rate is determined by analyzing the
average return of high-quality (i.e., AA-rated) fixed-income investments and the year-over-year comparison of certain widely used
benchmark indices as of the measurement date. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is determined using the
plans’ current asset allocation and their expected rates of return based on a geometric averaging over 20 years. The rate of
compensation increase assumptions reflects the Company’s long-term actual experience and future and near-term outlook. Pension
benefits are funded through deposits with trustees or directly by the plan administrator. Other post-retirement benefits are not
funded and the Company’s policy is to pay these benefits as they become due.
The Company recognizes the funded status of each of its plans in the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of unrecognized
net gain or loss resulting from experience different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions (excluding asset gains
and losses not yet reflected in market-related value) is included as a component of net periodic benefit cost for a year if, as of the
beginning of the year, that unrecognized net gain or loss exceeds five percent of the greater of the projected benefit obligation
or the market-related value of plan assets. If amortization is required, the amortization is that excess divided by the average
remaining service period of participating employees expected to receive benefits under the plan.
The Company records a curtailment when an event occurs that significantly reduces the expected years of future service or eliminates
the accrual of defined benefits for the future services of a significant number of employees. A curtailment gain is recorded when
the employees who are entitled to the benefits terminate their employment; a curtailment loss is recorded when it becomes
probable a loss will occur. Upon a settlement, the Company recognizes the proportionate amount of the unamortized gains and
losses if the cost of all settlements during the year exceeds the interest component of net periodic cost for the affected plan.
Expense from curtailments and settlements is recorded in selling and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of
operations.
Noncontrolling Interests and Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests. Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of profit or
loss, net assets and comprehensive income that is not allocable to the Company. During 2018, 2017 and 2016, net income
attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily represented guaranteed dividends that the Company was obligated to pay to
the noncontrolling shareholders of Diebold Nixdorf AG.
Noncontrolling interests with redemption features, such as put rights, that are not solely within the Company’s control are considered
redeemable noncontrolling interests. Redeemable noncontrolling interests are presented outside of equity on the Company's
consolidated balance sheets. The balance of redeemable noncontrolling interests is reported at the greater of its carrying value
or its maximum redemption value at each reporting date. Refer to note 12 for more information.
Acquired redeemable noncontrolling interests are recorded at fair value by applying the income approach using unobservable
inputs for projected cash flows, including but not limited, to net sales and operating profit, and a discount rate, which are considered
Level 3 inputs.
Related Party Transactions. The Company has certain strategic alliances that are not consolidated. The Company tests these
strategic alliances annually, individually and in aggregate, to determine materiality. The Company owns 40.0 percent of Inspur
(Suzhou) Financial Information Technology Co., Ltd (Inspur JV) and 43.6 percent of Aisino-Wincor Retail & Banking Systems
(Shanghai) Co., Ltd (Aisino JV) as of December 31, 2018. The Company engages in transactions in the ordinary course of business.
The Company's strategic alliances are not significant subsidiaries and are accounted for under the equity method of investments.
As of December 31, 2018, the Company had accounts receivable and accounts payable balances with these affiliates of $9.9 and
$10.6, respectively, which is included in trade receivables, less allowances for doubtful accounts and accounts payable, respectively,
on the consolidated balance sheets. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a charge of $19.2 for its investment
in its Aisino strategic alliance as a result of the weakening banking market in China. The charge was included in equity in (loss)
earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries, net in its consolidated statements of operations.
In May 2017, the Company announced a strategic partnership with Kony, which is located in Texas, a leading enterprise mobility
and application company, to offer white label mobile application solutions for financial institutions and retailers. The Company
acquired a minority equity stake in Kony, which was accounted for using the cost method of accounting. As of December 31, 2018

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
The effects of the adoption of the ASUs listed below did not significantly impact the Company's financial statements:
Standards Adopted
Description
ASU 2014-09, Revenue
from Contracts with
Customers
The standard replaced the most previously existing revenue recognition guidance
in U.S. GAAP and required additional financial statement disclosures. The standard
requires revenue to be recognized when the Company expects to be entitled in
exchange for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The
standard was adopted using a modified retrospective approach to open contracts
as of the effective date, January 1, 2018. The standard is intended to reduce
potential for diversity in practice at initial application and reducing the cost and
complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and prospectively. As a result of
the adoption, the cumulative increase to the Company's retained earnings at
January 1, 2018 was $4.6.
ASU 2017-07, Improving
the Presentation of Net
Periodic Pension Cost and
Net Periodic
Postretirement Benefit
Cost
The standard was issued to address the net presentation of the components of net
benefit cost. The standard requires that service cost be presented in the same line
item as other current employee compensation costs and that the remaining
components of net benefit cost be presented in a separate line item outside of any
subtotal for income from operations. The adoption of this update did not have a
material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Amendments to SEC
Paragraphs pursuant to
SEC Staff Accounting
Bulleting No. 118
The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial
reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. For
existing hedges as of the date of the adoption, the Company eliminated a minimal
amount of ineffectiveness by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to
accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) with a corresponding adjustment
to retained earnings. As a result of the standard, $2.4 and $(0.6) were included in
net sales and cost of sales, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The standard allows for reclassification of stranded tax effects on items resulting
from the Tax Act from AOCI to retained earnings. Tax effects unrelated to the Tax
Act are released from AOCI using either the specific identification approach or the
portfolio approach based on the nature of the underlying item. As a result of the
adoption, during the first quarter of 2018, the Company recorded an adjustment to
retained earnings resulting in an increase of $29.0, with a corresponding decrease
to AOCI due to the reduction in the corporate tax rate.
The standard simplifies the measurement of goodwill by eliminating step 2 from the
goodwill impairment test. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the
amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The
adoption of this update did not have an impact on the financial statements of the
Company and only simplifies the procedure for the goodwill impairment test.
This guidance amends SEC paragraphs in Topic 740, Income Taxes, to reflect SAB
118, which provides guidance for companies that are not able to complete their
accounting for the income tax effects of the Tax Act in the period of enactment.
The standard allowed registrants to record provisional amounts in earnings for the
year ended December 31, 2017 due to complexities involved in accounting for the
enactment of the Tax Act. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has finalized the
accounting under SAB 118 as required for the items previously considered
provisional. Refer to Note 4 for further information.

(in millions, except per share amounts)
Description
The standard requires that a lessee
recognize on its balance sheet right-of-
use assets and corresponding liabilities
resulting from leasing transactions, as
well as additional financial statement
disclosures. Currently, U.S. GAAP only
requires balance sheet recognition for
leases classified as capital leases. The
provisions of this update apply to
substantially all leased assets. ASUs
2018-01 and 2018-20 are updates to
this standard, which prescribe a
practical expedient for implementation
and narrow-scope improvements for
lessors.
The new standard gives entities the
option to reclassify to retained earnings
tax effects related to items in
accumulated other comprehensive
income as a result of the tax reform.
The new standard is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15,
2018, and interim periods within those
fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted
in any interim period after issuance. The
Company is currently evaluating the
impact of adopting this guidance.
The standard is is designed to improve
the effectiveness of disclosures by
removing, modifying and adding
disclosures related to fair value
measurements.
Effective/
Adoption
Date
January 1,
2019
Anticipated Impact
The Company evaluated the impact that the
standard will have on its financial information
and related disclosures. The standard requires
a modified retrospective transition method
with the option to elect a package of practical
expedients, which the Company anticipates
utilizing. The Company anticipates a significant
balance sheet gross-up for the right-of-use
assets and corresponding liabilities, with no
anticipated impact to debt covenants. For
additional information on the Company’s
operating lease commitments, see Note 16.
The Company does not expect the two
updates have a significant impact on its
financial statements.

As noted above, the Company early adopted
in 2018.
January 1,
2020
The Company is currently assessing the impact
this ASU will have on its consolidated financial
statements. The ASU allows for early adoption
in any interim period after issuance of the
update.
The amendments in this update provide
guidance on whether certain
transactions between collaborative
arrangement participants should be
accounted for under Topic 606.
January 1,
2020
The Company is currently assessing the impact
this ASU will have on its consolidated financial
statements. The ASU allows for early adoption
in any year end after issuance of the update.
The amendments in this update replace
the incurred loss impairment
methodology with the current expected
credit loss methodology. This will
change the measurement of credit
losses on financial instruments and the
timing of when such losses are
recorded.
January 1,
2020
The Company is currently assessing the impact
this ASU will have on its consolidated financial
statements. The ASU allows for early adoption
as of the fiscal years beginning after
December 31, 2018.
The standard is designed to improve
the effectiveness of disclosures by
removing and adding disclosures
related to defined benefit plans.

this ASU will have on its consolidated financial
statements. The ASU allows for early adoption
in any year end after issuance of the update.

NOTE 2: EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss)
per share includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. Under the two-class method of computing earnings
(loss) per share, non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends are considered
participating securities. The Company’s participating securities include restricted stock units (RSUs), director deferred shares and
shares that were vested but deferred by employees. The Company calculated basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share under
both the treasury stock method and the two-class method. For the years presented there were no differences in the earnings (loss)
per share amounts calculated using the two methods. Accordingly, the treasury stock method is disclosed below.
The following table represents amounts used in computing earnings (loss) per share and the effect on the weighted-average

Dividends. On the basis of amounts declared and paid quarterly, the annualized dividends per share were $0.10, $0.40 and $0.96
for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. In May 2018, the Company announced its decision to
reallocate future dividend funds towards debt reduction and other capital resource needs.
Share-Based Compensation Cost. The Company recognizes costs resulting from all share-based payment transactions based on
the fair market value of the award as of the grant date. Awards are valued at fair value and compensation cost is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the requisite periods of each award. The Company estimated forfeiture rates are based on historical
experience. To cover the exercise and/or vesting of its share-based payments, the Company generally issues new shares from its
authorized, unissued share pool. The number of common shares that may be issued pursuant to the 2017 Equity and Performance
Incentive Plan (the 2017 Plan) was 6.1, of which 3.6 shares were available for issuance at December 31, 2018.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION AWARDS
Stock options, RSUs and performance shares have been issued to officers and other management employees under the Company’s
Amended and Restated 1991 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan (as amended and restated as of February 12, 2014) (the 1991
Plan) and the 2017 Plan. Certain awards have accelerated vesting clauses that result in a non-substantive vesting requirement,
which results in either immediate or accelerated expense.
Stock Options
Stock options generally vest after a one- to three-year period and have a maturity of ten years from the issuance date. Option
exercise prices equal the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the date of grant. The estimated fair value of the
options granted was calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise timing within the valuation model. Employees with similar historical
exercise behavior with regard to timing and forfeiture rates are considered separately for valuation and attribution purposes.
Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the price of the Company’s common shares over the expected life of the equity
instrument. The risk-free rate of interest is based on a zero-coupon U.S. government instrument over the expected life of the equity
instrument. The expected dividend yield is based on actual dividends paid per share and the price of the Company’s common
shares. The options granted in 2018 were granted prior to the dividend cancellation and include the expected dividend at the
time of the grant date.

The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Company’s closing share price on the
last trading day of the year in 2018 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of “in-the-money” options) that would have been received
by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2018. The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will
change based on the fair market value of the Company’s common shares.
The expected to vest options are the result of applying the pre-vesting forfeiture rate assumption to total outstanding non-vested options.
The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised was minimal for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and 2016. The

The Tax Act was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent
to 21 percent, required companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings for certain foreign subsidiaries and created new
68

FORM 10-K as of December 31, 2018
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(in millions, except per share amounts)
taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. Due to the complexities involved in accounting for the enacted Tax Act, the Company
applied the guidance in SAB 118 and a reasonable estimate of the impacts was included for the year ended December 31, 2017.
At December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a non-cash charge to tax expense of $81.7 of which $45.1 represented the reduction
to deferred income taxes for the income tax rate change and $36.6 related to the one-time transition tax on deferred foreign
earnings. As of December 31, 2018, the Company completed the accounting as required under SAB 118 for items previously
considered provisional. While the Company was able to make an estimate of the transition tax for 2017, it continued to gather
additional information to more precisely compute the amount reported on its 2017 U.S. Federal tax return which was filed in the
fourth quarter of 2018. Additionally, the Company was affected by other analyses related to the Tax Act. Transition tax was $41.1
greater than the Company’s initial estimate and was included in tax expense for 2018. Likewise, while the Company was able to
make an estimate of the impact of the reduction to the corporate tax rate, in 2018 the Company recorded additional tax benefits
of $2.5 as a result of adjustments made to federal temporary differences including a pension contribution made in 2018 that was
deductible for 2017 at the higher 35 percent federal tax rate. In 2018, the Company also recorded a tax benefit of $8.5 related to
the one-time transition tax for a fiscal year foreign subsidiary. The Company will continue to analyze the full effects of the Tax Act
on its financial statements as additional guidance is issued and interpretations evolve.
The effective tax rate for 2018 was 7.2 percent and is primarily due to a goodwill impairment charge, impacts of the Tax Act,
valuation allowances on certain foreign and state jurisdictions, foreign tax credits and the higher interest expense burden resulting
from the debt restructuring. More specifically, the expense on the loss reflects the reduction of the U.S. federal corporate income
tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, refinement of the transition tax under SAB 118, a goodwill impairment charge, which for
tax purposes is primarily nondeductible and the business interest deduction limitation. As a result of the Company’s debt
restructuring activity during the year, a full valuation allowance was required on the current year nondeductible business interest
expense. The overall effective tax rate is also impacted by the jurisdictional income (loss) and varying respective statutory rates
which is reflected in the foreign tax rate differential caption of the rate reconciliation.
The effective tax rate for 2017 was 14.7 percent on the overall loss from continued operations and is primarily driven by the
provisional impacts of the Tax Act. In addition to the impact of the Tax Act, the overall effective tax rate is impacted by the
jurisdictional income (loss) and varying respective statutory rates which is reflected in the foreign tax rate differential caption of
the rate reconciliation.
The Company recognizes the benefit of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax returns in the consolidated financial
statements when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by authorities. Recognized tax
positions are measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon settlement.
Details of the unrecognized tax benefits are as follows:
Balance at January 1
Increases (decreases) related to prior year tax positions, net
Increases related to current year tax positions
Settlements
Reductions due to lapse of applicable statute of limitations

The entire amount of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate.
The Company classifies interest expense and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes in the consolidated financial
statements as income tax expense. Consistent with the treatment of interest expense, the Company accrues interest income on
overpayments of income taxes where applicable and classifies interest income as a reduction of income tax expense in the
consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax
benefits totaled $6.3 and $5.5, respectively.
It is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change during the next 12 months. The Company
does not expect those changes to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements. The expected timing of
payments cannot be determined with any degree of certainty.
During 2018, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued the final Revenue Agent’s Report (RAR) for the tax year 2013 for the Company’s
U.S. federal income tax return. The Company agreed to a draft RAR in 2017, effectively settling the findings and accruing all
amounts. At December 31, 2018, the Company is under audit by the IRS for the tax year ended December 31, 2016. The Company
believes it has adequately provided for any related uncertain tax positions. There are no other outstanding audits by the IRS and

all U.S. federal tax years prior to 2014 are closed by statute. The company is subject to tax examination in various U.S. state
jurisdictions for tax years 2012 to the present, as well as various foreign jurisdictions for tax years 2011 to the present.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had domestic and international NOLs of $964.8, resulting in an NOL deferred tax asset
of $160.0. Of these NOL carryforwards, $647.2 expire at various times between 2019 and 2039 and $317.6 does not expire. At
December 31, 2018, the Company had a domestic foreign tax credit carryforward resulting in a deferred tax asset of $68.4 that
will expire between 2020 and 2029 and a general business credit carryforward resulting in a deferred tax asset of $5.7 that will
expire between 2035 and 2039.
The Company recorded a valuation allowance to reflect the estimated amount of certain foreign and state deferred tax assets that,
more likely than not, will not be realized. The net change in total valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2018 and
2017 was an increase of $69.8 and $17.8, respectively. The 2018 valuation allowance increase is driven primarily by current year
domestic interest expense in which a full valuation allowance has been placed, domestic foreign tax credits scheduled to expire
as well as certain foreign jurisdictions which are now in a three year cumulative loss position.

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, provisions were made for foreign withholding taxes and estimated foreign
income taxes which may be incurred upon the remittance of certain undistributed earnings in foreign subsidiaries and foreign
unconsolidated affiliates. Provisions have not been made for income taxes on $865.4 of undistributed earnings at December 31,
2018 in foreign subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures that were deemed permanently reinvested. Determination of the amount
of unrecognized deferred income tax liabilities on these earnings is not practicable because such liability, if any, depends on certain
circumstances existing if and when remittance occurs. A deferred tax liability will be recognized if and when the Company no
longer plans to permanently reinvest these undistributed earnings.

The Company has deferred compensation plans that enable certain employees to defer receipt of a portion of their cash, 401(k)
or share-based compensation and non-employee directors to defer receipt of director fees at the participants’ discretion. For
deferred cash-based compensation, the Company established rabbi trusts (refer to note 15), which are recorded at fair value of
the underlying securities within securities and other investments. The related deferred compensation liability is recorded at fair
value within other long-term liabilities. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities in the rabbi trusts are
recognized in interest income.

Securities and other investments also included a cash surrender value of insurance contracts of $11.1 and $79.8 as of December 31,

owned life insurance plans and utilization of short-term investments in Brazil for cash needs across the organization. In addition,
it included an interest rate swap asset carrying value of $4.8 and $7.6 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which also
represented fair value (refer to note 18).

The Company's combined allowance for finance receivables and notes receivables was $0.3 and $4.4 for the years ended
December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, all resulted from individual impairment evaluation. As of December 31, 2018, finance
leases and notes receivables individually evaluated for impairment were $35.9 and $4.9, respectively, were assessed with no
provision recorded. As of December 31, 2017, finance leases and notes receivables individually evaluated for impairment were
$26.3 and $16.0, respectively, were assessed with no provision recorded. The increase in finance lease receivables was related
primarily to China while the decrease in notes receivable was related primarily to EMEA.
The Company records interest income and any fees or costs related to financing receivables using the effective interest method
over the term of the lease or loan. The Company reviews the aging of its financing receivables to determine past due and delinquent
accounts. Credit quality is reviewed at inception and is re-evaluated as needed based on customer-specific circumstances.
Receivable balances 60 days to 89 days past due are reviewed and may be placed on nonaccrual status based on customer-specific
circumstances. Receivable balances are placed on nonaccrual status upon reaching greater than 89 days past due. Upon receipt
of payment on nonaccrual financing receivables, interest income is recognized and accrual of interest is resumed once the account
has been made current or the specific circumstances have been resolved.
As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the recorded investment in past-due financing receivables was minimal and no recorded
investment in finance receivables was past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest.

Goodwill. In the fourth quarter of 2018 in connection with the annual goodwill impairment test, the Company elected to assess
goodwill for impairment based on a qualitative assessment, which resulted in a conclusion that no events or changes in circumstance
resulted in a situation that would more likely than not reduce the carrying value of a reporting unit below its reported amount.
Accordingly, no impairment resulted from the annual goodwill impairment test in any of the Company's reporting units.
During the second quarter of 2018, the Company performed an impairment test of goodwill for all of its LoB reporting units due
to the change in its reportable operating segments. Based on the results of the LoB testing, the fair values of each of the Company's
reporting units exceed their carrying values except for the Services-AP and Software-EMEA reporting units which resulted in a non-
cash impairment loss of $90.0 during the second quarter 2018. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company corrected an
immaterial error related to the allocation of goodwill as discussed in Note 1, which decreased the second quarter non-cash
impairment loss to $83.1.
The Company identified four reporting units, which are Eurasia Banking, Americas Banking, EMEA Retail and Rest of World Retail.
Management determined that the Americas Banking and EMEA Retail reporting unit had a cushion of approximately 20 percent
and 10 percent, respectively, when compared to their carrying amounts. The Eurasia Banking had minimal excess fair value or
cushion when compared to their carrying amounts, but primarily due to the reporting unit's improved performance, it did not
indicate any impairment during the qualitative annual goodwill impairment test. Rest of World Retail had no carrying value as of
December 31, 2018. Changes in certain assumptions or the Company's failure to execute on the current plan could have a significant
impact to the estimated fair value of the reporting units.
During the second and third quarters 2018, the Company estimated the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of the
income valuation and market approach methodologies. The determination of the fair value of a reporting unit requires significant
estimates and assumptions, including significant unobservable inputs. The key inputs included, but were not limited to, discount
rates, terminal growth rates, market multiple data from selected guideline public companies, management’s internal forecasts
which include numerous assumptions such as projected net sales, gross profit, sales mix, operating and capital expenditures and
earnings before interest and taxes margins, among others.
As a result of certain impairment triggering events, the Company performed an interim impairment test of goodwill for its four
reporting units during the third quarter of 2018. Based on the results of the impairment testing, the Company recorded a non-
cash goodwill impairment loss of $109.3 related to the Eurasia Banking, EMEA Retail and Rest of World Retail reporting units
during the third quarter of 2018. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company corrected an immaterial error related to the
allocation of goodwill as discussed in Note 1, which increased the third quarter non-cash impairment loss for Eurasia Banking,
reduced the non-cash impairment loss for Rest of World Retail and eliminated the non-cash impairment loss for the EMEA Retail

reporting unit. This resulted in an additional $25.1 non-cash impairment loss for the third quarter of 2018 for a non-cash impairment
loss of $134.4 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 which related to the Eurasia Banking and Rest of World Retail. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2018 the Company recorded a $217.5 non-cash goodwill impairment loss.
The Company reclassified $47.0 of goodwill based on relative fair value to assets held for sale in December 2018 related to certain
non-core businesses in Europe and the Americas.
During 2017, the $5.6 acquired goodwill from Moxx and Visio primarily related to anticipated synergies achieved through increased
scale and higher utilization of the service organization.

The Company provides its customers a standard manufacturer’s warranty and records, at the time of the sale, a corresponding
estimated liability for potential warranty costs. Estimated future obligations due to warranty claims are based upon historical factors
such as labor rates, average repair time, travel time, number of service calls per machine and cost of replacement parts. The
decrease was primarily due to warranties expiring in Brazil and Germany.

The Company had a revolving and term loan credit agreement (the Credit Agreement), with a revolving facility of up to $500.0 (the
Revolving Facility) as of December 31, 2018. On December 23, 2020, the Term Loan A Facility will mature and the Revolving Facility
will automatically terminate. The weighted-average interest rate on outstanding revolving credit facility borrowings as of
December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was 5.97 percent and 3.63 percent, respectively, which is variable based on the
London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The amount available under the revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2018 was
$347.5, after excluding $27.5 in letters of credit.
On May 9, 2017, the Company entered into an incremental amendment to its Credit Agreement (the Incremental Agreement)
which reduced the initial term loan B facility (the Term Loan B Facility) of a $1,000.0 USD-denominated tranche to $475.0. The
reduction was funded using the $250.0 proceeds drawn from the Delayed Draw Term Loan A Facility, a replacement of $70.0 with
Term Loan B Facility - Euro and previous principal payments.
The Incremental Amendment also renewed the repricing premium of 1.00 percent in relation to the Term Loan B Facility to the
date that is six months after the Incremental Effective Date, removed the requirements to prepay the repriced Dollar Term Loan
and the repriced Euro Term Loan upon any asset sale or casualty event if the Company is below a total net leverage ratio of 2.5:1.0
on a pro forma basis for such asset sale or casualty event and provides additional restricted payments and investment carveouts
in regards to assets acquired with the Acquisition. All other material provisions under the Credit Agreement were unchanged.
On August 30, 2018, the Company entered into a sixth amendment and incremental amendment (the Sixth Amendment) to its
Credit Agreement, which amended the financial covenants and established a new senior secured incremental term A-1 facility in
an aggregate principal amount of $650.0 (Term Loan A-1 Facility) and made certain other changes to the Credit Agreement.
A portion of the proceeds of the Term Loan A-1 Facility are restricted to fund the purchase of the remaining shares of Diebold
Nixdorf AG not owned by the Company. The proceeds were used to make optional prepayments of existing term A loans in the
amount of $130.0 and to permanently reduce revolving credit commitments in an amount of $20.0 and to make a purchase pursuant
to an offer open to all term B lenders on a pro rata basis for $100.0 in face principal amount of term B loans. Any remaining
proceeds were used for general corporate and working capital purposes.
The interest rate with respect to the Term Loan A-1 Facility is based on, at the Company's option, either the alternative base rate
(ABR) plus 8.25 percent or a eurocurrency rate plus 9.25 percent. The Term Loan A-1 Facility will mature in August 2022, the fourth
Anniversary of the Sixth Amendment. The Term Loan A-1 Facility is subject to a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio, a
minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio and certain covenant reset triggers (Covenant Reset Triggers) as described in the
Sixth Amendment. Upon the occurrence of any Covenant Reset Trigger, the financial covenant levels will automatically revert to
the previous financial covenant levels in effect prior to the Sixth Amendment.

The Company entered into the DPLTA, which became effective on February 14, 2017, at which time, the carrying value of the
noncontrolling interest related to the Diebold Nixdorf AG of $386.7 was reclassified to redeemable noncontrolling interest. For
the period of time that the DPLTA is effective, this interest in Diebold Nixdorf AG will remain in redeemable noncontrolling interest
and presented outside of equity in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the
balance related to the redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the Diebold Nixdorf AG ordinary shares the Company did
not acquire was $99.1 and $454.6, respectively. The change is primarily related to the redemption of 5.3 Diebold Nixdorf AG
ordinary shares in the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company increased its ownership stake in Diebold Nixdorf AG to 28.2
ordinary shares, or approximately 94.7 percent, as of December 31, 2018. In January 2019, the Company increased its ownership
stake in Diebold Nixdorf AG to over 95 percent, which resulted in initiating squeeze-out procedures to acquire the remaining
outstanding shares.
The DPLTA offers the Diebold Nixdorf AG minority shareholders, at their election, (i) the ability to put their Diebold Nixdorf AG
ordinary shares to Diebold KGaA in exchange for cash compensation of €55.02 per Diebold Nixdorf AG ordinary share or (ii) to
remain Diebold Nixdorf AG minority shareholders and receive a recurring compensation in cash of €2.82 per Diebold Nixdorf AG
ordinary share for each full fiscal year of Diebold Nixdorf AG. The redemption value adjustment includes the updated cash
compensation pursuant to the DPLTA. A portion of the proceeds of the Term Loan A-1 Facility are restricted to fund the purchase
of the remaining shares of Diebold Nixdorf AG not owned by the Company and are included in restricted cash in the consolidated
balance sheets.
The remaining balance relates to certain noncontrolling interests in Europe, which have put right redemption features not in control
of the Company that are included in redeemable noncontrolling interests. The results of operations for these redeemable
noncontrolling interests were not significant.
The ultimate amount and timing of any future cash payments related to the put rights are uncertain.

NOTE 14: ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
In the first quarter of 2018, the Company acquired the remaining portion of its noncontrolling interest in its China operations for
$5.8 in the aggregate.
During 2017, the Company acquired all the capital stock of Moxx and certain assets and liabilities of Visio for $5.6 in the aggregate,
net of cash acquired, which are included in the Retail and Eurasia Banking segments, respectively. During the third quarter of 2017,
the Company acquired Moxx, which is a Netherlands based managed services company that provides managed mobility solutions
for enterprises that use a large number of mobile assets in their business operations. In the second quarter of 2017, the Company
acquired Visio, which is a design company based in Germany.
During 2017, the Company divested its legacy Diebold business in the U.K. to Cennox Group for $5.0, fulfilling the requirements
previously set forth by the U.K. Competition and Markets Authority. The divestiture closed on June 30, 2017. The legacy,
independent Wincor Nixdorf U.K. and Ireland business will be completely integrated into the global Diebold Nixdorf operations
and brand. As part of the Company's routine efforts to evaluate its business operations, during 2017, the Company agreed to sell
its ES businesses located in Mexico and Chile to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Securitas AB and Avant, respectively. The Company

recorded a pre-tax gain of $2.2 related to these transactions. The combined net sales of the divestitures represented less than one
percent of total net sales of the Company for 2018, 2017 and 2016.
In February 2016, the Company finalized its divestiture of its wholly-owned ES subsidiary located in the U.S. and Canada for an
aggregate purchase price of $350.0 in cash, 10.0 percent of which was contingent based on the successful transition of certain
customer relationships. The Company received payment and recorded a pre-tax gain of $239.5 on the ES divestiture, which was
recognized during 2016. Cash flows provided or used by the NA ES business are presented as cash flows from discontinued
operations for all of the periods presented. The results of operations, financial position and cash flows from the NA ES business
were not included in the Company's financial statements from the closing date.

Qualified Retirement Benefits. The Company has qualified retirement plans covering certain U.S. employees that have been closed
to new participants since 2003 and frozen since December 2013. Plans that cover salaried employees provide retirement benefits
based on the employee’s compensation during the ten years before the date of the plan freeze or the date of their actual separation
from service, if earlier. The Company’s funding policy for salaried plans is to contribute annually based on actuarial projections and
applicable regulations. Plans covering hourly employees generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service.
The Company’s funding policy for hourly plans is to make at least the minimum annual contributions required by applicable
regulations.
The Company's non-U.S. benefit plans cover eligible employees located predominately in Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, the
U.K. and France. Benefits for these plans are based primarily on each employee's final salary, with annual adjustments for inflation.
The obligations in Germany consist of employer funded pension plans and deferred compensation plans. The employer funded
pension plans are based upon direct performance-related commitments in terms of defined contribution plans. Each beneficiary
receives, depending on individual pay-scale grouping, contractual classification, or income level, different yearly contributions.
The contribution is multiplied by an age factor appropriate to the respective pension plan and credited to the individual retirement
account of the employee. The retirement accounts may be used up at retirement by either a one-time lump-sum payout or payments
of up to ten years. In Switzerland, the post-employment benefit plan is required due to statutory provisions. The employees receive
their pension payments as a function of contributions paid, a fixed interest rate and annuity factors. Insured events for these plans
are primarily disability, death and reaching of retirement age.
In the Netherlands, the Company recognized a curtailment gain of $4.6 in 2016 related to its Netherlands' SecurCash B.V. plan
due to a restructuring and cessation of accruals in the plan as of December 31, 2016. A transfer to an industry-wide pension fund

(in millions, except per share amounts)
occurred in early 2017, which transferred $186.8 of obligations and assets and is included in the settlements caption in the following
tables. Final settlement accounting for this plan took place and resulted in $0.4 of income for the year ended December 31, 2017.
The Company has other defined benefit plans outside the U.S., which have not been mentioned here due to their insignificance.
Supplemental Executive Retirement Benefits. The Company has non-qualified pension plans in the U.S. to provide supplemental
retirement benefits to certain officers, which were also frozen since December 2013. Benefits are payable at retirement based upon
a percentage of the participant’s compensation, as defined.
Other Benefits. In addition to providing retirement benefits, the Company provides post-retirement healthcare and life insurance
benefits (referred to as other benefits) for certain retired employees. Retired eligible employees in the U.S. may be entitled to
these benefits based upon years of service with the Company, age at retirement and collective bargaining agreements. There are
no plan assets and the Company funds the benefits as the claims are paid. The post-retirement benefit obligation was determined
by application of the terms of medical and life insurance plans together with relevant actuarial assumptions and healthcare cost
trend rates.

The discount rate is determined by analyzing the average return of high-quality (i.e., AA-rated) fixed-income investments and the
year-over-year comparison of certain widely used benchmark indices as of the measurement date. The expected long-term rate
of return on plan assets is primarily determined using the plan’s current asset allocation and its expected rates of return. The
Company also considers information provided by its investment consultant, a survey of other companies using a December 31
measurement date and the Company’s historical asset performance in determining the expected long-term rate of return. The
rate of compensation increase assumptions reflects the Company’s long-term actual experience and future and near-term outlook.
During 2017, the Society of Actuaries released new mortality improvement projection scale (MP-2017) resulting from recent studies
measuring mortality rates for various groups of individuals. As of December 31, 2017, the Company adopted for the pension plan
in the U.S. the use of the RP-2014 base mortality table modified to remove the post-2006 projections using the MP-2014 mortality
improvement scale and replacing it with projections using the fully generational MP-2017 projection scale. For the plans outside
the U.S., the mortality tables used are those either required or customary for local accounting and/or funding purposes.
The following table represents assumed healthcare cost trend rates at December 31:

The healthcare trend rates for the postemployment benefits plans in the U.S. are reviewed based upon the results of actual claims
experience. The Company used initial healthcare cost trends of 6.5 percent and 6.8 percent in 2018 and 2017, respectively, with
an ultimate trend rate of 5.0 percent reached in 2025. Assumed healthcare cost trend rates have a modest effect on the amounts
reported for the healthcare plans.
A one-percentage-point change in assumed healthcare cost trend rates results in a minimal impact to total service and interest
cost and post-retirement benefit obligation.
The Company has a pension investment policy in the U.S. designed to achieve an adequate funded status based on expected
benefit payouts and to establish an asset allocation that will meet or exceed the return assumption while maintaining a prudent
level of risk. The plans' target asset allocation adjusts based on the plan's funded status. As the funded status improves or declines,
the debt security target allocation will increase and decrease, respectively. The Company utilizes the services of an outside consultant
in performing asset / liability modeling, setting appropriate asset allocation targets along with selecting and monitoring professional
investment managers.
The U.S. plan assets are invested in equity and fixed income securities, alternative assets and cash. Within the equities asset class,
the investment policy provides for investments in a broad range of publicly-traded securities including both domestic and
international stocks diversified by value, growth and cap size. Within the fixed income asset class, the investment policy provides
for investments in a broad range of publicly-traded debt securities with a substantial portion allocated to a long duration strategy
in order to partially offset interest rate risk relative to the plans’ liabilities. The alternative asset class includes investments in
diversified strategies with a stable and proven track record and low correlation to the U.S. stock market. Several plans outside of
the U.S. are also invested in various assets, under various investment policies in compliance with local funding regulations.
In connection with the Acquisition, the Company also acquired plan assets that had been created in June 2006 as part of a
Contractual Trust Arrangement (CTA), under which company assets have been irrevocably transferred to a registered association
(Alme Pension Foundation) for the exclusive purpose of securing and funding pension and other postemployment benefits
obligations to employees in Belgium, Germany, France and Switzerland. The association is investing in current and non-current
assets, using a funding strategy that is reviewed on a regular basis by analyzing asset development as well as the current situation
of the financial market.

rabbi trusts in the U.S., which are recorded at fair value of the underlying securities within securities and other investments. The
related deferred compensation liabilities are recorded at fair value within other long-term liabilities. Realized and unrealized gains
and losses on marketable securities in the rabbi trusts are recognized in interest income with corresponding changes in the
Company’s deferred compensation obligation recorded as compensation cost within selling and administrative expense.

NOTE 17: DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company
principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business
activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate and foreign exchange rate risk, through the use of derivative
financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from
business or financing activities. The Company’s derivative foreign currency instruments are used to manage differences in the
amount of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and cash payments principally related to the Company’s non-functional
currency assets and liabilities. The Company's interest rate derivatives are used to manage the differences in amount due to variable
interest rate borrowings.
The Company uses derivatives to mitigate the economic consequences associated with fluctuations in currencies and interest rates.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE
Net Investment Hedges.The Company has international subsidiaries with net balance sheet positions that generate cumulative
translation adjustments within AOCI. The Company uses derivatives to manage potential changes in value of its net investments.
The Company uses the forward-to-forward method for its quarterly measurement of ineffectiveness assessments of hedge
effectiveness. No ineffectiveness results if the notional amount of the derivative matches the portion of the net investment
designated as being hedged because the Company uses derivative instruments with underlying exchange rates consistent with
its functional currency and the functional currency of the hedged net investment. Changes in value that are deemed effective are
accumulated in AOCI where they will remain until they are reclassified to income together with the gain or loss on the entire
investment upon substantial liquidation of the subsidiary. The fair value of the Company’s net investment hedge contracts were
$0.0 and $2.0 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The gain (loss) recognized in AOCI on net investment hedge
derivative instruments was $9.1 and $(2.2) for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
On August 15, 2016, the Company designated its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility as a net investment hedge of its
investments in certain subsidiaries that use the euro as their functional currency in order to reduce volatility in stockholders' equity
caused by the changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the euro with respect to the USD. Effectiveness is assessed at least
quarterly by confirming that the respective designated net investments' net equity balances at the beginning of any period
collectively continues to equal or exceed the balance outstanding on the Company's euro-denominated term loan. Changes in
value that are deemed effective are accumulated in AOCI. When the respective net investments are sold or substantially liquidated,
the balance of the cumulative translation adjustment in AOCI will be reclassified into earnings. The net gain (loss) recognized in
AOCI on net investment hedge foreign currency borrowings was $4.9 and $(41.3) for the years ended December 31, 2018 and
2017, respectively. On March 30, 2017, the Company de-designated €130.6 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility and on
May 9, 2017, the Company designated an additional €66.8 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility as a result of its repricing
described under note 11. On September 21, 2017, the Company de-designated €101.1 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B
Facility. On June 21, 2018, the Company re-designated €30.2 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility. On July 23, 2018,
the Company de-designated €180.2 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility. On October 1, 2018 the Company de-designated
€29.2 of its euro-denominated Term Loan B Facility.
Non-Designated Hedges. A substantial portion of the Company’s operations and revenues are international. As a result, changes
in foreign exchange rates can create substantial foreign exchange gains and losses from the revaluation of non-functional currency
monetary assets and liabilities. The Company’s policy allows the use of foreign exchange forward contracts with maturities of up
to 24 months to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on those foreign currency asset and liability balances. The Company
elected not to apply hedge accounting to its foreign exchange forward contracts. Thus, spot-based gains/losses offset revaluation
gains/losses within foreign exchange loss, net and forward-based gains/losses represent interest expense or income. The fair value
of the Company’s non-designated foreign exchange forward contracts was $0.5 and $(4.9) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017,
respectively.
Cash Flow Hedges. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against its functional currency. At the
Company, both sales and purchases are transacted in foreign currencies. Wincor Nixdorf International GmbH (WNI) is the Diebold
Nixdorf AG currency management center. Currency risks in the aggregate are identified, quantified, and controlled at the WNI
treasury center, and furthermore, it provides foreign currencies if necessary. The Diebold Nixdorf AG subsidiaries are primarily
exposed to the GBP as the EUR is its functional currency. This risk is considerably reduced by natural hedging (i.e. management
of sales and purchases by choice location and suppliers). For the remainder of the risk that is not naturally hedged, foreign currency
forwards are used to manage the exposure between EUR-GBP.
Derivative transactions are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. For transactions designated as cash flow hedges, the
effective portion of changes in the fair value are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period
that the hedged forecasted transactions impact earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is
recognized directly in earnings. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had the following outstanding foreign currency derivatives
that were used to hedge its foreign exchange risks:

INTEREST RATE
Cash Flow Hedges. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to
manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as
part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable
amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without
exchange of the underlying notional amount.
During November 2016, the Company entered into multiple pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps with an aggregate
notional amount of $400.0. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash
flow hedges is recorded in AOCI and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction
affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The fair
value of the Company’s interest rate contracts was $10.1 and $9.8 as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the
Company’s variable-rate debt. The Company estimates that a minimal amount will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense
over the next year.
The Company has an interest rate swap for a notional amount of €50.0, which was entered into in May 2010 with a ten-year term
from October 1, 2010 until September 30, 2020. This interest rate swap mitigated the interest rate risk associated with the European
Investment Bank debt, which was paid in full during 2017. For this interest swap, the three-month EURIBOR is received and a fixed
interest rate of 2.97 percent is paid. The fair value, which is measured at market prices, as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, was
$(3.6) and $(5.5), respectively. The interest rate swap is not designated and changes in the fair value of non-designated interest
rate swap agreements are recognized in Miscellaneous, net in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized
$1.9 and $1.4 in interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Additionally, the Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any additional
derivatives that are not designated as hedges.

the second and third quarters of 2018, in connection with certain triggering events, the Company performed an impairment test
of goodwill for all of its reporting units. See note 8 for further details. Besides goodwill from certain reporting units noted above,
there were no significant assets or liabilities that were remeasured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the period presented.
NOTE 19: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contractual Obligations
At December 31, 2018, the Company had purchase commitments due within one year totaling $5.3 for materials and services
through contract manufacturing agreements at negotiated prices. The amounts purchased under these obligations totaled $8.9
in 2018. The Company guarantees a fixed cost of certain products used in production to its strategic partners. Variations in the
products costs are absorbed by the Company.
Indirect Tax Contingencies
The Company accrues non-income-tax liabilities for indirect tax matters when management believes that a loss is probable and
the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are
sustained in excess of accruals, they are charged against income. In evaluating indirect tax matters, management takes into
consideration factors such as historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood
of prevailing. Management evaluates and updates accruals as matters progress over time. It is reasonably possible that some of
the matters for which accruals have not been established could be decided unfavorably to the Company and could require
recognizing future expenditures. Also, statutes of limitations could expire without the Company paying the taxes for matters for
which accruals have been established, which could result in the recognition of future gains upon reversal of these accruals at that
time.
At December 31, 2018, the Company was a party to several routine indirect tax claims from various taxing authorities globally that
were incurred in the normal course of business, which neither individually nor in the aggregate are considered material by
management in relation to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In management’s opinion, the consolidated
financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these indirect tax claims and/or proceedings or asserted
claims.
In addition to these routine indirect tax matters, the Company was a party to the proceedings described below:
The Company has challenged multiple customs rulings in Thailand seeking to retroactively collect customs duties on previous
imports of ATMs. In August 2017, the Supreme Court of Thailand ruled in the Company's favor in one of the matters, finding that
Customs' attempt to collect duties for importation of ATMs was improper. The surviving matters remain at various stages of the
appeals process and the Company will use the Supreme Court's decision in support of its position in those matters. Management
remains confident that the Company has a valid legal position in these appeals. Accordingly, the Company does not have any
amount accrued for this contingency.
At December 31, 2017, the Company had an accrual related to the Brazil indirect tax of $4.9, which related to allegations of
improper importation of certain components into Brazil's free trade zone that would nullify certain indirect tax incentives. During
2018, the statute of limitations expired and the entire accrual was reversed.
A loss contingency is reasonably possible if it has a more than remote but less than probable chance of occurring. Although
management believes the Company has valid defenses with respect to its indirect tax positions, it is reasonably possible that a
loss could occur in excess of the estimated accrual. The Company estimated the aggregate risk at December 31, 2018 to be up
to $106.1 for its material indirect tax matters, of which $27.0 related to the Thailand customs matter disclosed above. The aggregate
risk related to indirect taxes is adjusted as the applicable statutes of limitations expire.

Legal Contingencies
At December 31, 2018, the Company was a party to several lawsuits that were incurred in the normal course of business, which
neither individually nor in the aggregate were considered material by management in relation to the Company’s financial position
or results of operations. In management’s opinion, the Company's consolidated financial statements would not be materially
affected by the outcome of these legal proceedings, commitments or asserted claims.
In addition to these normal course of business litigation matters, the Company was a party to the proceedings described
below:
Diebold KGaA is a party to appraisal proceedings (Spruchverfahren) relating to the DPLTA entered into by Diebold KGaA and
Diebold Nixdorf AG on September 26, 2016, pending at the District Court (Landgericht) of Dortmund (Germany). The appraisal
proceedings were filed by minority shareholders of Diebold Nixdorf AG challenging the adequacy of both the cash exit
compensation of €55.02 per Diebold Nixdorf AG share and the annual recurring compensation of €2.82 per Diebold Nixdorf AG
share offered in connection with the DPLTA. A ruling by the court would apply to all Diebold Nixdorf AG shares outstanding at
the time the DPLTA became effective. While the Company believes that the compensation offered in connection with the DPLTA
was fair and the claims lack merit, this matter is still at a preliminary stage and the outcome is uncertain. As a result, the Company
is unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, arising from this litigation.
NOTE 20: SEGMENT AND NET SALES INFORMATION
The Company's accounting policies derive segment results that are the same as those the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM)
regularly reviews and uses to make decisions, allocate resources and assess performance. The Company continually considers its
operating structure and the information subject to regular review by its Chief Executive Officer, who is the CODM, to identify
reportable operating segments. The Company’s operating structure is based on a number of factors that management uses to
evaluate, view and run its business operations, which currently includes, but is not limited to, product, service and solution.
The Company's previous reportable operating segments included the lines of business (LoB): Services, Systems, and Software.
The Company began to reorganize its management team reporting to the CODM and assess its new operating model during the
first half of 2018. The results of re-evaluating the LoB operating model highlighted the need to transform the Company’s operating
model to Banking and Retail. The renewed focus on the customer experience has led the Company to reorganize its operating
model. The LoBs will continue to develop solutions, but will operate as cost centers focused on designing and delivering innovative
and customer-driven products. The realignment to Banking and Retail enables quicker decision making, reduces complexity, makes
better use of talent and promotes the best possible experience for the Company’s customers. Beginning with the second quarter
of 2018, the Company's reportable operating segments are based on the following solutions: Eurasia Banking, Americas Banking
and Retail. As a result, the Company reclassified comparative periods for consistency.
Segment revenue represents revenues from sales to external customers. Segment operating profit is defined as revenues less
expenses identifiable to those segments. The Company does not allocate to its segments certain operating expenses, managed
at the corporate level, that are not routinely used in the management of the segments, or information that is impractical to allocate.
These unallocated costs include certain corporate costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets and deferred revenue,
restructuring charges, impairment charges, legal, indemnification, and professional fees related to acquisition and divestiture
expenses, along with other income (expenses). Segment operating profit reconciles to consolidated loss before income taxes by
deducting corporate costs and other income or expense items that are not attributed to the segments. Corporate charges not
allocated to segments include headquarter-based costs associated with procurement, human resources, compensation and
benefits, finance and accounting, global development/engineering, global strategy/mergers and acquisitions, global IT, tax,
treasury and legal. Assets are not allocated to segments, and thus are not included in the assessment of segment performance,
and consequently, the Company does not disclose total assets and depreciation and amortization expense by reportable operating
segment.

(1) Corporate charges not allocated to segments include headquarter-based costs associated with procurement, human resources, compensation
and benefits, finance and accounting, global development/engineering, global strategy/mergers and acquisitions, global IT, tax, treasury and
legal.
Net non-routine expense consists of items that the Company has determined are non-routine in nature and not allocated to the
reportable operating segments. Net non-routine expense of $242.7 for the year ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to
the inventory provision of $74.5 in cost of sales, acquisition integration expenses of $47.2 primarily within selling and administrative
expense and purchase accounting pre-tax charges for amortization of acquired intangibles of $113.4. Net non-routine expense
of $261.2 for the year ended December 31, 2017 was primarily due to acquisition integration expenses of $72.1 primarily within
selling and administrative expense and purchase accounting pre-tax charges for amortization of acquired intangibles of $160.9.
Net non-routine expense of $255.3 for the year ended December 31, 2016 was primarily due to the impact of purchase accounting
adjustments of $128.6 primarily in cost of sales and legal, acquisition and divestiture related costs of $104.3 primarily within selling
and administrative expense.

During 2018, the Company recorded goodwill impairment charges (as adjusted) of $83.1 and $134.4 in the second and third
quarters, respectively, which contributed to the increased net loss compared to the same periods in 2017. In addition to the
goodwill impairments, interest expense increased related to higher average outstanding balances throughout the year.
During 2018, the Company identified immaterial errors in prior periods for certain inventory balances, goodwill and various other
items. Management determined that the correction of these errors were not material to each prior period. Refer to note 1 for
further details on these adjustments. As a result of applying the correction retrospectively, previously reported balances within
certain financial statement line items were increased (decreased) as follows:

NOTE 22: SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR INFORMATION
The Company issued the 2024 Senior Notes in an offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933
in connection with the Acquisition. The 2024 Senior Notes are and will be guaranteed by certain of the Company's existing and
future subsidiaries. The following presents the condensed consolidating financial information separately for:
(i) Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated (the Parent Company), the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;
(ii) Guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, as specified in the Indenture, as supplemented;
(iii) Non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis;
(iv) Consolidating entries and eliminations representing adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between the
Parent Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in our
subsidiaries, and (c) record consolidating entries; and
(v) Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated and subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
Each guarantor subsidiary is 100 percent owned by the Parent Company at the date of each balance sheet presented. The 2024
Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each guarantor subsidiary. The guarantees
of the guarantor subsidiaries are subject to release in limited circumstances only upon the occurrence of certain customary
conditions. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the
consolidated financial statements, except for the use by the Parent Company and the guarantor subsidiaries of the equity method
of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation. Changes in intercompany
receivables and payables related to operations, such as intercompany sales or service charges, are included in cash flows from
operating activities. Intercompany transactions reported as investing or financing activities include the sale of capital stock of
various subsidiaries, loans and other capital transactions between members of the consolidated group.
Certain non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company are limited in their ability to remit funds to it by means of dividends,
advances or loans due to required foreign government and/or currency exchange board approvals or limitations in credit agreements
or other debt instruments of those subsidiaries.
The Company has reclassified certain assets and liabilities from its non-guarantor subsidiaries to the Parent Company as a result
of a common control transaction in connection with the Company's integration efforts of the Acquisition to optimize its operations.
The Company also reclassified certain assets and liabilities for inclusion of an additional wholly-owned domestic subsidiary from
its non-guarantor subsidiaries to the combined guarantor subsidiaries as a result of changes included in the Sixth Amendment.

ITEM 9: CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Not applicable.
ITEM 9A: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(in millions)
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
in the Company’s reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as
appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and
procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide
only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
The Company carries out a variety of on-going procedures, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s
management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures.
Based on that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective as of December 31, 2019 due to material weaknesses in the Company's controls over financial reporting, described
below.
Nevertheless, based on the performance of additional procedures by management designed to ensure reliability of financial
reporting the Company's management has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weaknesses described below, the
consolidated financial statements fairly present in all material respects, the Company's financial position, results of operations and
cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented, inconformity with U.S. GAAP.
(a) MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in
Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that,
in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance
with U.S. GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Under the supervision of the CEO and CFO and Board of Directors, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness
of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013
framework)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. Based on this assessment,
management identified the following control deficiencies:
The Company’s risk assessment process was not effective in considering changes to the business operations, personnel and other
factors affecting certain financial reporting processes and design of related controls on a timely basis. Accordingly,
•
•
The Company had ineffective ITGCs related to IT systems used for financial reporting by certain entities throughout the
organization. The Company did not establish effective IT and financial user access controls commensurate with certain
job responsibilities. Consequently, automated and manual process level controls over financial reporting which were
dependent upon these ITGCs were also ineffective.
The Company had ineffective implementation and operation of controls over inventory valuation related to spare parts
and finished goods from canceled orders as the Company did not effectively communicate information to certain locations
to allow for the effective operations or implementation of these controls.
108
•
The Company had ineffective controls over non-routine transactions as certain controls were not designed at the
appropriate level of precision to ensure calculations supporting non-routine transaction were calculated correctly.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is
a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected
on a timely basis.
These control deficiencies resulted in misstatements to goodwill impairment, inventory and redeemable non-controlling interests
all of which were corrected prior to issuance of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2018 included in this annual report on Form 10-K. As these deficiencies created a reasonable possibility that a
material misstatement would not be prevented or detected in a timely basis, management concluded that the control deficiencies
represent material weaknesses and accordingly our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31,
2018.
KPMG LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an auditor’s report on management’s
assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018. This report,
which expressed an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, is included in
Item 8 of this annual report on Form 10-K.
(b) CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Other than the material weaknesses described above that occurred in earlier periods of fiscal 2018, there have been no other
changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this annual report that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
(c) REMEDIATION
The Company is still considering the full extent of the procedures to implement in order to remediate the three material weaknesses

Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the related consolidated statements of operations,
comprehensive income (loss), equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2018,

reporting as of December 31, 2018, which reports appear in the December 31, 2018 annual report on Form 10 K of Diebold
Nixdorf, Incorporated.
Our report on the consolidated financial statements refers to a change to the accounting for revenue recognition due to the
adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Our report dated March 1, 2019, on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018,
expresses our opinion that Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2018 because of the effect of material weaknesses on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria
and contains an explanatory paragraph that states material weaknesses were identified related to ineffective controls over
information technology general controls related to user access, inventory valuation, and non-routine transactions.
