On an adjusted basis(1), the second-quarter 2025 net income was $8.4 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $26.5 million. This compares with the sequential first-quarter 2025 net sales of $280.5 million and net income of $1.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis(1), the first-quarter 2025 net income was $3.2 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $17.7 million. In the same quarter last year, net sales were $294.7 million and net income was $4.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis(1), the second-quarter 2024 net income was $6.7 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA was $19.9 million. "We delivered solid second-quarter results with significant improvement in profitability and operating cash flow, supported by improving end markets, continued market share gains, and strong execution by our teams," said Mike Williams, chief executive officer. "Safety and operational excellence remain top priorities, and we're seeing the benefits of ongoing process improvements across our manufacturing facilities, including an increase in melt utilization, as expected. Demand for our domestic steel remains strong, reinforcing our position as a trusted supplier. Additionally, we remain on track with the installation of new assets that will expand our capabilities and directly support the Army's mission to increase munitions production." "Looking ahead to the second half of the year, we're well-positioned to support customer requirements while continuing to advance key manufacturing initiatives, entering into labor contract negotiations in the coming weeks, and preparing for our annual shutdown maintenance," said Mike Williams. "While these efforts are expected to have a short-term cost impact, they reflect our commitment to strengthening operations, investing in our people, and driving long-term value. We remain confident in our strategic direction and our ability to deliver sustained profitability and cash flow across all market environments," stated Williams. SECOND-QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL SUMMARY Net sales of $304.6 million increased 9 percent compared with $280.5 million in the first quarter 2025. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by higher shipments and an increase in raw material surcharge revenue per ton. Compared with the prior-year second quarter, net sales increased by 3 percent on higher shipments partially offset by lower price/mix. Ship tons of 167,700 increased 14,800 tons sequentially, or 10 percent, driven by higher shipments in the aerospace & defense, automotive, and energy end markets. Compared with the prior-year second quarter, ship tons increased 12 percent as a result of higher industrial, energy, and automotive shipments, partially offset by lower aerospace & defense shipments. Manufacturing benefited from increased fixed cost leverage on higher production volume. Melt utilization improved to 71 percent in the second quarter from 65 percent in the first quarter and 53 percent in the same quarter last year. CASH, LIQUIDITY AND REPURCHASE ACTIVITY As of June 30, 2025, the company's cash and cash equivalents balance was $190.8 million. In the second quarter, operating cash flow was $34.8 million, primarily driven by profitability and the receipt of an income tax refund. Capital expenditures totaled $17.8 million in the second quarter including $15.3 million for projects funded by the U.S. government. Total liquidity(2) was $437.0 million as of June 30, 2025. Required pension contributions totaled $5.9 million in the second quarter, most of which related to the bargaining unit pension plan. The company repurchased approximately 255,000 common shares in the open market at an aggregate cost of $3.3 million. As of June 30, 2025, the company had $93.9 million remaining under its authorized share repurchase program. Additionally, the company settled the remaining $5.5 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding convertible notes at a cost of $9.1 million. As of June 30, 2025, the company has no outstanding borrowings. During the second quarter, the company received $5.1 million from the U.S. Army as part of the previously announced $99.75 million capacity expansion funding agreement in support of the U.S. Army's mission of ramping up munitions production. To date, the company has received $71.5 million of government funding and expects additional funding to be provided under the previously announced agreements throughout 2025 and into early 2026 as mutually agreed upon milestones are achieved. OUTLOOK Given the elements outlined in the outlook below, the company expects third-quarter adjusted EBITDA to be modestly lower than the second quarter. While the company expects sequentially similar shipments and base prices as well as improved operational performance, profitability is expected to be negatively impacted by costs associated with labor agreement negotiations, higher electricity costs, and planned annual shutdown maintenance costs. Commercial: Third-quarter shipments are expected to be similar to the second quarter. Lead times for both bar and tube products currently extend to October. Base price per ton is anticipated to remain relatively steady. Operations: The company expects an increase in the average melt utilization rate in the third quarter from 71 percent in the second quarter. Annual shutdown maintenance is planned for the second half of 2025 at a cost of approximately $15 million, of which approximately $5 million is expected to occur in the third quarter. Other matters: Planned capital expenditures are approximately $125 million for the full year of 2025, consistent with previous guidance and inclusive of approximately $90 million of capital expenditures funded by the U.S. government. Required pension contributions are expected to decline to approximately $3.5 million in the second half of 2025 compared with previous estimate of approximately $10 million during that period. In July, the company received an additional $10.0 million in government funding related to the capacity expansion funding agreement. As previously announced, the company will begin negotiations with the United Steelworkers on August 18, 2025 regarding the current labor agreement that is set to expire on September 29, 2025. The company anticipates $3 million to $5 million of incremental cost in the second half of 2025 associated with labor agreement negotiations.

The total diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 43.3 million shares. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. Based on the timing of the convertible note settlement during the three months ended June 30, 2025, there were no adjustments to net income for the add back of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs). (2) Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share are defined as net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share, respectively, excluding, as applicable, adjustments listed in the foregoing table. (3) Business transformation costs consist of professional service fees associated with the evaluation of certain strategic opportunities, with a focus on targeted growth to diversify the company's end market and product portfolio through acquisitions. (4) The company is undergoing a multi-year IT transformation initiative intended to streamline and modernize legacy IT systems while also reducing operating costs, increasing information security and positioning us to take advantage of market opportunities. IT transformation costs were primarily related to professional service fees not eligible for capitalization and are primarily related to project planning and third-party implementation services. (5) Third party professional fees related to process optimization efforts and improving manufacturing efficiency within targeted facilities. (6) Rebranding costs consist primarily of professional service fees associated with the company's name change to Metallus Inc., announced during the first quarter of 2024. (7) Amortization of cloud computing software costs consists of expense recognized in Selling, General, and Administrative expense resulting from amortization of capitalized implementation costs for cloud computing IT systems. This expense is not included in depreciation and amortization. (8) Following the completion of the salaried pension plan annuitization in May 2024, there were surplus assets which were used to make a one-time 401(k) contribution to eligible employees. As a result, the Company recognized a loss of $3.6 million when the remaining assets were distributed. (9) Tax effect on above adjustments includes the tax impact related to the adjustments shown above. (10) For the three months ended June 30, 2024 convertible notes (1.7 million shares) and common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (1.1 million shares) were included in the computation of as reported and as adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. The total diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was 46.6 million shares. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. As such, net income was adjusted to add back $0.2 million of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs). (11) For the three months ended March 31, 2025, common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (0.9 million shares) were included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. Common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes were excluded in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as these shares would be anti-dilutive.

The total diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 43.5 million shares. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. Based on the timing of the convertible note settlement during the six months ended June 30, 2025, there were no adjustments to net income for the add back of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs). (2) Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share are defined as net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share, respectively, excluding, as applicable, adjustments listed in the foregoing table. (3) Business transformation costs consist of professional service fees associated with the evaluation of certain strategic opportunities, with a focus on targeted growth to diversify the company's end market and product portfolio through acquisitions. (4) The company is undergoing a multi-year IT transformation initiative intended to streamline and modernize legacy IT systems while also reducing operating costs, increasing information security and positioning us to take advantage of market opportunities. IT transformation costs were primarily related to professional service fees not eligible for capitalization and are primarily related to project planning and third-party implementation services. (5) Third party professional fees related to process optimization efforts and improving manufacturing efficiency within targeted facilities. (6) Rebranding costs consist primarily of professional service fees associated with the company's name change to Metallus Inc., announced during the first quarter of 2024. (7) Amortization of cloud computing software costs consists of expense recognized in Selling, General, and Administrative expense resulting from amortization of capitalized implementation costs for cloud computing IT systems. This expense is not included in depreciation and amortization. (8) Following the completion of the salaried pension plan annuitization in May 2024, there were surplus assets which were used to make a one-time 401(k) contribution to eligible employees. As a result, the Company recognized a loss of $3.6 million when the remaining assets were distributed. (9) Tax effect on above adjustments includes the tax impact related to the adjustments shown above. (10) For the six months ended June 30, 2024, common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding convertible notes (1.7 million shares) and common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards (1.2 million shares) were included in the computation of as reported and as adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, as they were considered dilutive. The total diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 46.6 million shares. For the convertible notes, the company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. As such, net income was adjusted to add back $0.4 million of convertible notes interest expense (including amortization of convertible notes issuance costs). Reconciliation of Earnings (Loss) Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)(3) and Adjusted EBITDA(8) to GAAP Net Income (Loss): This reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the company's performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important financial measures used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. Management believes that reporting EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as these measures are representative of the company's performance. Management also believes that it is appropriate to compare GAAP net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

Reconciliation of Base Sales by end-market to GAAP Net Sales by end-market: The tables below present net sales by end-market, adjusted to exclude surcharges, which represents a financial measure that has not been determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe presenting net sales by end-market, both on a gross basis and on a per ton basis, adjusted to exclude raw material and energy surcharges, provides additional insight into key drivers of net sales such as base price and product mix. Due to the fact that the surcharge mechanism can introduce volatility to our net sales, net sales adjusted to exclude surcharges provides management and investors clarity of our core pricing and results. Presenting net sales by end-market, adjusted to exclude surcharges including on a per ton basis, allows management and investors to better analyze key market indicators and trends and allows for enhanced comparison between our end-markets. When surcharges are included in a customer agreement and are applicable (i.e., reach the threshold amount), based on the terms outlined in the respective agreement, surcharges are then included as separate line items on a customer's invoice. These additional surcharge line items adjust base prices to match cost fluctuations due to market conditions. Each month, the company will post on the surcharges page of its external website, as well as our customer portal, the scrap, alloy, and energy surcharges that will be applied (as a separate line item) to invoices dated in the following month (based upon shipment volumes in the following month). All surcharges invoiced are included in GAAP net sales.
