PRESS RELEASE



   Technicolor: FIRST HALF 2017 results



Paris (France), 26 July 2017 - Technicolor (Euronext Paris: TCH; OTCQX: TCLRY)
announces today its results for the first half of 2017.

Frederic Rose, Chief Executive Officer of Technicolor, stated:

"Following a slow start to the year, we saw a marked improvement in the latter
half of the period across all our operating businesses which we expect to carry
through for the rest of the year."

First Half 2017 key highlights

* First half 2017 revenues were at ?2,146 million and the Adjusted EBITDA at
?107 million. This was largely attributed to:

* The Connected Home Adjusted EBITDA decreased year-on-year as a result of
lower revenues versus a very strong first half 2016 performance, which
was exacerbated by the ?30 million negative impact of memory price
increases;
* The Technology segment revenues declined compared to a very strong first
half 2016 performance and due to the expiry of Digital TV agreements in
anticipation of the ramp up of the joint licensing program with Sony.
* Entertainment Services saw a stable Adjusted EBITDA as Production Services
revenue and profit growth was constrained by capacity ramp up and DVD
Services improvement in margin was offset by a mix which was heavily
weighted toward Standard Definition discs;
* Free cash flow excluding cash impacts of the CRT[1] case settlements
amounted to ?(67) million due to the lower Adjusted EBITDA. Group free cash
flow amounted to ?(148) million;
* Technicolor reinforced its cost optimization program while working on
ongoing mitigation actions related to the memory cost impact.




Full Year 2017 objectives confirmed

As a result of the memory price increases affecting Connected Home
profitability, Technicolor expects to deliver an Adjusted EBITDA in the range of
?420 million to ?480 million as announced on June 29, 2017.

The Group confirms its free cash flow objective (in excess of ?150 million
before cash impacts of the CRT cartel case settlements). These cash settlements
amounted to ?81 million and were paid in the first half of 2017.

These objectives are calculated based on constant exchange rates.

Segment review - H1 2017 result highlights



Connected Home revenues amounted to ?1,252 million, down 11.2% year-on-year at
constant rate mainly resulting from a continued weak macro-economic environment
in Latin America and the delayed ramp in the early part of the year of a number
of large contracts in Western Europe. After a slow start in the first quarter,
Connected Home experienced very strong growth in the second quarter,
particularly in North America which represented 63% of total revenues for the
first half.

North America:

* Revenue growth materially accelerated in the second quarter with record
deliveries across several cable customers, fueled in particular by large
volumes of the Worldbox to Charter. As a result, Technicolor substantially
outperformed the overall North American market;
* Twelve new product introductions, both in Video and Broadband are planned in
the second half across North American customers;
* Commercial activity remained strong with a win rate of 76% on different
tender offers.
Europe, Middle East and Africa:

* Revenues were affected by the end of some large deployments in the last part
of 2016 and shipment delays to a large customer.
Latin America:

* Technicolor maintained its leading market share position both in Broadband
and Video. Revenues were affected by continued difficult market conditions
in Mexico which remained the most challenging market. Technicolor saw
stabilization in Brazil and growth in other countries like Argentina and
Chile.
Asia Pacific:

* Revenues were down year-on-year due to lower deliveries in India and
Australia, partly compensated by growth in Japan and South Korea.

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to ?57 million, or 4.6% of revenue, down 310 basis
points compared to last year. The margin decline was driven by the gross margin
squeeze resulting from memory price increases. Excluding the memory cost impact,
Adjusted EBITDA margin would have reached 7.0%.

Gross margin reached 14.1%, down 230 basis points compared to the first half of
2016, mainly due to the negative impact of memory price increases that amounted
to ?30 million. The gross margin excluding the memory cost impact would have
reached 16.5%.

Entertainment Services revenues amounted to ?838 million in the first half of
2017, down 3.3% at constant currency compared to the first half of 2016.

* Production Services revenues amounted to ?383 million in the first half of
2017, up 4.9% at constant currency compared to the first half of 2016,
driven by a strong performance in Animation, Games and Post-Production.
   The level of activity in VFX for film and TV was sustained with the teams
working on more than 25 Film projects, including Warner Bros. Wonder Woman and
Paramount's Transformers: The Last Knight, and over 10 TV projects, including
season 5 of Vikings (History) and season 2 of The Shannara Chronicles
(MTV/Spike). Several large VFX film projects began in the first half, including
Disney's live-action adaptation of The Lion King. Capacity expansion program
continued through the first half coupled with the hiring of additional creative
talent.

   Revenue growth was strong in Animation driven by the delivery of DreamWorks
Animation's Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, the ramp-up of several
long form feature animation projects, such as Paramount's Sherlock Gnomes and a
very solid pipeline in content IP.

   Post-Production activity experienced growth particularly in the theatrical
sound business and saw growing success with Netflix Originals.

   VFX for Advertising was slightly lower compared to the first half of 2016,
which included more VFX-heavy campaigns, resulting in a weaker mix compared to
last year.

* DVD Services revenues reached ?454 million in the first half of 2017, down
c.9% at constant currency compared to the first half of 2016.  Overall disc
volumes recorded a year-on-year net increase in the second quarter
compensating the weak performance of the first quarter and resulted in a
reduction of less than 6% year-on-year. This demonstrated resiliency of the
business given the comparative strength of the first half of 2016, which
benefited from a number of major blockbuster releases including Star Wars:
The Force Awakens and a higher number of AAA Games.
   Volume trends in the first half of 2017 were driven in large part by robust
DVD back catalog activity in North America, highlighting continued, broad-based
consumer demand for packaged media content. Games volume declined, as there was
only one major Xbox One title release during the first half, and represented
only a very small percentage of total overall disc volume in the period.

Adjusted EBITDA reached ?72 million in the first half of 2017, globally stable
compared to the first half of 2016:

* Adjusted EBITDA of Production Services was stable year-on-year as
Technicolor expanded its capacity and hired additional talent to deliver
strong growth in the second half of 2017;

* In DVD Services, year-on-year percentage profitability improved as a result
of cost saving actions directly related to the integration of Cinram North
American assets in 2016.  These improvements were, however, globally offset
by product mix impacts.

Technology revenues amounted to ?56 million in the first half of 2017, down ?103
million compared to the first half of 2016 excluding MPEG LA revenues. This
significant decline was caused by the strength of the first half of 2016
resulting from the success of our licensing efforts (revenues excluding MPEG LA
were up 58% in that period). These agreements included one-off revenues
including the lump sum payment related to an HEVC licensing deal and several
upfront payments related to other licensing agreements.

In the context of its joint licensing program with Sony in Digital TV,
Technicolor did not renew a number of its agreements in that field to allow the
Group, as agent for the program to start discussions with manufacturers.

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to ?19 million, or a margin of 33.2%. The margin
decline was largely due to the fixed cost structure of the business. Licensing
operations and Research & Innovations spending remained stable year-on-year.

The timeline of its ongoing licensing discussions is expected to result in new
agreements being signed in the second half of 2017.

Group revenues from continuing operations totaled ?2,146 million in the first
half of 2017, down by 12.6% at constant currency compared to the first half of
2016, resulting mainly from lower revenues in the Connected Home segment and in
DVD Services.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations amounted to ?107 million in the first
half of 2017, down 60.9% at constant currency compared to the first half of
2016. The Adjusted EBITDA margin amounted to 5.0%, down by 6 points year-on-year
due mainly to the margin squeeze in the Connected Home segment due to the memory
cost impact and the much lower contribution of the high-margin Technology
business.

Depreciation and Amortization amounted to ?119 million out of which ?26 million
of amortization was related to purchase price allocation, mostly related to the
2015 acquisitions.

EBIT from continuing operations totaled ?(37) million in the first half of
2017. This was mostly due to the lower Adjusted EBITDA as restructuring costs
and other non-current items recorded a significant decrease compared to last
year. Restructuring provisions were mainly taken in the Connected Home segment
and in DVD Services. Non-current items were much lower notwithstanding some
additional integration fees in the Connected Home segment. Excluding the
purchase price allocation amortization, EBIT from continuing operations was a
loss of ?11 million in the first half of 2017.

The Group's financial result totaled ?(62) million in the first half of 2017
compared to ?(73) million in the first half of 2016, reflecting:

* Net interest costs amounted to ?(24) million in the first half of 2017
compared to ?(44) million in the first half of 2016, reflecting lower
interest expense both related to lower debt (317m? of net repayments done in
2016) and lower average interest rates due to the 2017 refinancing;
* Other financial charges amounted to ?(38) million in the first half of 2017
compared to ?(29) million in the first half of 2016. These charges included
the IFRS adjustment write off for ?27 million, that was generated by the
repayment of the old Term Loan maturing in 2020.
Income tax amounted to ?11 million, lower by ?19 million compared to last year,
mostly due to lower results.

Net income was a loss of ?106 million in the first half of 2017 compared to a
loss of 54 million in the first
half of 2017.

* Capital expenditures amounted to ?69 million, down by ?5 million year-on-
year;
* Cash outflow for restructuring totaled ?29 million in the first half of
2017, down by ?4 million year-on-year, mainly resulting from lower
restructuring costs in the Technology segment;
* The change in working capital & other assets and liabilities was negative
?29 million in the first half of 2017 mostly driven by the seasonality of
DVD services;
Group free cash flow amounted to ?(148) million in the first half of 2017,
including:

* Financial charges were ?37 million, down by ?10 million year-on-year due to
lower interest expense both related to lower debt (?317million of net
repayments done in 2016) and lower average interest rates due to
refinancing;
* Tax cash inflow was ?3 million, improved by ?43 million year-on-year, due to
lower results and the monetization of research tax credit for around ?10
million;
* Other cash charges reached ?20 million, mainly reflecting pensions for
?12 million and Connected Home integration cash outflow for ?2 million;
* Cash impact of the CRT settlements amounted to ?81 million.
Nominal gross debt totaled ?1,099 million at end June 2017, up ?16 million
versus end December 2016, after partial refinancing of the Group's debt in March
2017.

The Group's cash position amounted to ?183 million at end June 2017, down by
?188 million compared to end December 2016, mainly reflecting the negative free
cash flow and the dividend payment for ?25 million.

Net debt at nominal value amounted to ?916 million at end June 2017, compared to
?712 million at end December 2016 mainly due to the lower cash position.

Reconciliation of adjusted indicators (unaudited)





Technicolor is presenting, in addition to published results and with the aim to
provide a more comparable view of the evolution of its operating performance in
the first half of 2017 compared to the first half of 2016 a set of adjusted
indicators, which exclude the following items as per the statement of operations
of the Group's consolidated financial statements:

* Restructuring costs, net;
* Net impairment charges;
* Other income and expenses (other non-current items).
These adjustments, the reconciliation of which is detailed in the following
table, amounted to an impact on Group EBIT from continuing operations of
?(32) million in the first half of 2017 compared to ?(59) million in the first
half of 2016.
