NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Unaudited

Note 1. Accounting Policies

The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ATI Inc. and its subsidiaries. Unless the context requires otherwise, “ATI” and “the Company” refer to ATI Inc. and its subsidiaries.

The Company follows a 4-4-5 or 5-4-4 fiscal calendar, whereby each fiscal quarter consists of thirteen weeks grouped into two four-week months and one five-week month, and its fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. Unless otherwise stated, references to years and quarters in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate to fiscal years and quarters, rather than calendar years and quarters.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform with 2024 presentation. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period. The December 31, 2023 financial information has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance related to disclosures about supplier finance programs. Supplier finance programs allow a buyer to offer its suppliers the option for access to payment in advance of an invoice due date, which is paid by a third-party finance provider or intermediary on the basis of invoices that the buyer has confirmed as valid. This new guidance requires a buyer in a supplier finance program to disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude, using both qualitative and quantitative information about its supplier finance programs. This new guidance, with the exception of annual disclosures on rollforward information, was effective for the Company in fiscal year 2023, and the Company adopted this new accounting guidance effective January 2, 2023. The annual rollforward information disclosures are effective for the Company in fiscal year 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company did not early adopt this guidance. The adoption of these changes did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than disclosure requirements, which are included in Note 7.

Pending Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to segment reporting disclosures. This guidance requires additional disclosures on an annual and interim basis of segment information, including significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and the presentation and composition of other segment items, which is the difference between segment revenue less segment expenses and the measure of segment profit or loss. The guidance also requires that all current segment disclosures required on an annual basis be provided on an interim basis and requires disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and how the CODM uses the reported measure of segment profit or loss in assessing performance and allocating resources. This guidance does not change how an entity identifies its reportable segments. This new guidance includes annual disclosure requirements that will be effective for the Company for fiscal year 2024 and quarterly disclosure requirements that will be effective for fiscal year 2025. The guidance must be applied retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect to early adopt this guidance and does not expect these changes to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than disclosure requirements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to income tax disclosures. This guidance requires entities to disclose specific categories in its annual rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. This guidance also requires additional annual disclosures for income taxes paid and requires disaggregation of income before tax, between domestic and foreign, and income tax expense, between federal, state and foreign. This guidance also eliminates several current disclosure requirements related to: (1) the nature and estimate of the range of the reasonably possible change in the unrecognized tax benefits balance in the next 12 months, (2) making a statement that an estimate of the range cannot be made, and (3) disclosing the cumulative amount of each type of temporary difference when a deferred tax liability is not recognized because of the exceptions to comprehensive recognition of deferred taxes related to subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures. This new guidance will be effective for the Company for fiscal year 2025 and must

6

be applied on a prospective basis with retrospective application permitted. Early adoption of this guidance is also permitted. The Company does not expect to early adopt this guidance and does not expect these changes to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than disclosure requirements.

Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revolving Credit Facility

The Company has an Asset Based Lending (ABL) Credit Facility, which is collateralized by the accounts receivable and inventory of the Company’s operations. The ABL facility also provides the Company with the option of including certain machinery and equipment as additional collateral for purposes of determining availability under the facility. The ABL facility, which matures in September 2027, includes a $600 million revolving credit facility, a letter of credit sub-facility of up to $200 million, a $200 million term loan (Term Loan), and a swing loan facility of up to $60 million. The Term Loan has an interest rate of 2.0% above the adjusted Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) and can be prepaid in increments of $25 million if certain minimum liquidity conditions are satisfied. In addition, the Company has the right to request an increase of up to $300 million in the maximum amount available under the revolving credit facility for the duration of the ABL. The Company had a $50 million floating-for-fixed interest rate swap which converted a portion of the Term Loan to a 4.21% fixed interest rate. The swap matured in June 2024.

The applicable interest rate for revolving credit borrowings under the ABL facility includes interest rate spreads based on available borrowing capacity that range between 1.25% and 1.75% for SOFR-based borrowings and between 0.25% and 0.75% for base rate borrowings. The ABL facility contains a financial covenant whereby the Company must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00:1.00 after an event of default has occurred and is continuing or if the undrawn availability under the ABL revolving credit portion of the facility is less than the greater of (i) 10% of the then applicable maximum loan amount under the revolving credit portion of the ABL and the outstanding Term Loan balance, or (ii) $60.0 million. The Company was in compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio as of June 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company must demonstrate minimum liquidity specified by the facility during the 90-day period immediately preceding the stated maturity date of its 3.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 and the 6.95% Debentures due 2025 issued by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Allegheny Ludlum LLC. The ABL also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness or liens or to enter into investments, mergers and acquisitions, dispositions of assets and transactions with affiliates, some of which are more restrictive,

13

at any time during the term of the ABL when the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio is less than 1.00:1.00 and its undrawn availability under the revolving portion of the ABL is less than the greater of (a) $120 million or (b) 20% of the sum of the maximum loan amount under the revolving credit portion of the ABL and the outstanding Term Loan balance.

As of June 30, 2024, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving portion of the ABL facility, and $31.7 million was utilized to support the issuance of letters of credit. There were no revolving credit borrowings under the ABL facility during the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024. There were average revolving credit borrowings of $11 million bearing an average annual interest rate of 6.4% under the ABL facility for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023. The Company also has foreign credit facilities, primarily in China, that total $57 million based on June 30, 2024 foreign exchange rates, none of which was drawn as of June 30, 2024 and $5.0 million of which was drawn as of December 31, 2023.

2025 Convertible Notes

As of June 30, 2024, the Company has $291.4 million aggregate principal amount of 3.5% Convertible Notes due 2025 (2025 Convertible Notes) outstanding, which mature on June 15, 2025 and is included in short-term debt and current portion of long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the 2025 Convertible Notes was $1.04 billion and $864 million, respectively, based on the quoted market price, which is classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The 2025 Convertible Notes have a 3.5% cash coupon rate that is payable semi-annually in arrears on each June 15 and December 15. Including amortization of deferred issuance costs, the effective interest rate is 4.2% for the quarters and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023. Remaining deferred issuance costs were $2.0 million and $2.9 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Interest expense on the 2025 Convertible Notes was as follows:

	Quarter ended				Year-to-date period ended
(in millions)	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023		June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
Contractual coupon rate	$	2.6	$	2.6	$	5.1	$	5.1
Amortization of debt issuance costs	0.5		0.4		1.0		0.9
Total interest expense	$	3.1	$	3.0	$	6.1	$	6.0

Currently, and prior to the 41st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the 2025 Convertible Notes, at its option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, if the last reported sale price of ATI’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which ATI provides written notice of redemption.

The initial conversion rate for the 2025 Convertible Notes is 64.5745 shares of ATI common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $15.49 per share (18.8 million shares). Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 15, 2025, the 2025 Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders of 2025 Convertible Notes only upon the satisfaction of specified conditions and during certain periods. Thereafter, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, the 2025 Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of holders of 2025 Convertible Notes at any time regardless of these conditions. Conversions of the 2025 Convertible Notes may be settled in cash, shares of ATI’s common stock or a combination thereof, at ATI’s election.

ATI entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain of the initial purchasers of the 2025 Convertible Notes or their respective affiliates (collectively, the Counterparties). The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce potential dilution to ATI’s common stock upon any conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments ATI is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2025 Convertible Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on the cap price. The capped call transactions initially included a cap price of $19.76 per share, and is subject to adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.

Note 9. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging

As part of its risk management strategy, the Company, from time-to-time, utilizes derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to changes in raw material prices, energy costs, foreign currencies, and interest rates. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company accounts for most of these contracts as hedges.

The Company sometimes uses futures and swap contracts to manage exposure to changes in prices for forecasted purchases of raw materials, such as nickel, and natural gas. Under these contracts, which are generally accounted for as cash flow hedges, the price of the item being hedged is fixed at the time that the contract is entered into, and the Company is obligated to make or receive a payment equal to the net change between this fixed price and the market price at the date the contract matures.

The majority of ATI’s products are sold utilizing raw material surcharges and index mechanisms. However, as of June 30, 2024, the Company had entered into financial hedging arrangements, primarily at the request of its customers related to firm orders, for an aggregate notional amount of approximately 4 million pounds of nickel with hedge dates through 2025. The aggregate notional amount hedged is approximately 5% of a single year’s estimated nickel raw material purchase requirements. These derivative instruments are used to hedge the variability of a selling price that is based on the London Metal Exchange (LME) index for nickel, as well as to hedge the variability of the purchase cost of nickel based on this LME index. Any gain or loss associated with these hedging arrangements is included in sales or cost of sales, depending on whether the underlying risk being hedged was the variable selling price or the variable raw material cost, respectively.

At June 30, 2024, the outstanding financial derivatives used to hedge the Company’s exposure to energy cost volatility included natural gas cost hedges. At June 30, 2024, the Company hedged approximately 65% of its forecasted domestic requirements for natural gas for the remainder of 2024 and approximately 35% for 2025.

While the majority of the Company’s direct export sales are transacted in U.S. dollars, foreign currency exchange contracts are used, from time-to-time, to limit transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates for those transactions denominated in a non-U.S. currency. The Company sometimes purchases foreign currency forward contracts that permit it to sell specified amounts of foreign currencies expected to be received from its export sales for pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. In addition, the Company may also hedge forecasted capital expenditures and designate cash balances held in foreign currencies as hedges of forecasted foreign currency transactions. At June 30, 2024, the Company had no material outstanding foreign currency forward contracts.

The Company may enter into derivative interest rate contracts to maintain a reasonable balance between fixed- and floating-rate debt. The Company had a $50 million floating-for-fixed interest rate swap which converted a portion of the ABL Term Loan to a 4.21% fixed rate, which matured during the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Company designated the interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge of the Company’s exposure to the variability of the payment of interest on a portion of its Term Loan borrowings.

There are no credit risk-related contingent features in the Company’s derivative contracts, and the contracts contain no provisions under which the Company has posted, or would be required to post, collateral. The counterparties to the Company’s derivative contracts are substantial and creditworthy commercial banks that are recognized market makers. The Company controls its credit exposure by diversifying across multiple counterparties and by monitoring credit ratings and credit default swap spreads of its counterparties. The Company also enters into master netting agreements with counterparties when possible.

The fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments are presented below, representing the gross amounts recognized which are not offset by counterparty or by type of item hedged. All fair values for these derivatives were measured using Level 2 information as defined by the accounting standard hierarchy, which includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

For derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (OCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects earnings. For derivative financial instruments that are designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in current period results. There were no outstanding fair value hedges as of June 30, 2024. The cash flow impact for all derivative financial instruments is reported in cash flows provided by operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company did not use net investment hedges for the periods presented. The effects of derivative instruments in the tables below are presented net of related income taxes, excluding any impacts of changes to income tax valuation allowances affecting results of operations or other comprehensive income, when applicable (see Note 15 for further explanation).

Assuming market prices remain constant with those at June 30, 2024, a pre-tax loss of $6.4 million is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months.

(a)The gains (losses) reclassified from accumulated OCI into income related to the derivatives, with the exception of the interest rate swap, are presented in sales and cost of sales in the same period or periods in which the hedged item affects earnings. The gains (losses) reclassified from accumulated OCI into income on the interest rate swap are presented in interest expense in the same period as the interest expense on the Term Loan is recognized in earnings.

The disclosures of gains or losses presented above for nickel and other raw material contracts and foreign currency contracts do not take into account the anticipated underlying transactions. Since these derivative contracts represent hedges, the net effect of any gain or loss on results of operations may be fully or partially offset.

The Company may also use derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges to protect the Company’s results from certain fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, as well as to offset a portion of the foreign currency gains and losses generated by the remeasurement of certain assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Changes in the fair value of these foreign exchange contract derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recorded in cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations, and we recognized $0.5 million of expense for settled foreign currency forward contracts that were not designated as hedges during the second quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, which offset foreign currency gains in the relevant currency. We have no significant outstanding hedges that are not designated as of June 30, 2024

Note 10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value of financial instruments at June 30, 2024 was as follows: 

			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
(In millions)	Total Carrying Amount		Total Estimated Fair Value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	425.6	$	425.6	$	425.6	$	—

Assets	0.3		0.3		—		0.3
Liabilities	7.5		7.5		—		7.5
Debt (a)	2,188.2		2,905.7		2,608.9		296.8

The estimated fair value of financial instruments at December 31, 2023 was as follows: 

			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
(In millions)	Total Carrying Amount		Total Estimated Fair Value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	743.9	$	743.9	$	743.9	$	—
Derivative financial instruments:
Assets	0.9		0.9		—		0.9
Liabilities	14.2		14.2		—		14.2
Debt (a)	2,199.2		2,746.7		2,438.9		307.8

(a)The total carrying amount for debt for both periods excludes debt issuance costs related to the recognized debt liability which is presented in the consolidated balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability.

In accordance with accounting standards, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards established three levels of a fair value hierarchy that prioritize the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The availability of observable market data is monitored to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents: Fair value was determined using Level 1 information.

Derivative financial instruments: Fair values for derivatives were measured using exchange-traded prices for the hedged items. The fair value was determined using Level 2 information, including consideration of counterparty risk and the Company’s credit risk.

Short-term and long-term debt: The fair values of the Company’s publicly traded debt were based on Level 1 information. The fair values of the other short-term and long-term debt were determined using Level 2 information.

Note 11. Business Segments

The Company operates under two business segments: High Performance Materials & Components (HPMC) and Advanced Alloys & Solutions (AA&S). The measure of segment EBITDA excludes income taxes, depreciation and amortization, corporate expenses, net interest expense, closed operations and other expenses, charges for goodwill and asset impairments, restructuring and other credits/charges, strike related costs, pension remeasurement gains/losses, debt extinguishment charges and gains or losses on asset sales and sales of businesses. Management believes segment EBITDA, as defined, provides an appropriate measure of controllable operating results at the business segment level.

Beginning in 2020, the U.S. government enacted various relief packages in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including refundable employee retention tax credits. The Company applied for these employee retention tax credits and deferred recognition of a portion of the tax credits pending the completion of any potential audit or examination, or the expiration of the related statute of limitations. During the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a benefit of $8.6 million in cost of sales on the consolidated statement of operations due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for a portion of these credits. The Company recognized $3.5 million of the benefit in the HPMC segment and $5.1 million in the AA&S segment. See Note 16 for further explanation.

Closed operations and other income (expense) for the quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 includes a $2.3 million gain on the sale of assets for the Company’s idled Houston, PA facility included within gain on asset sales and sales of businesses, net, on the consolidated statement of operations, for which $3.5 million of proceeds were received and reported as an investing activity on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Restructuring and other charges of $5.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 include $5.5 million of inventory write-downs related to the Company’s ongoing European restructuring and $1.8 million of start-up costs, both of which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations. These charges were partially offset by credits of $1.9 million primarily for lowered severance-related reserves based on changes in planned operating rates and revised workforce reduction estimates (see Note 7). Restructuring and other charges of $8.5 million for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 include $5.5 million of inventory write-downs related to the Company’s ongoing European restructuring and $4.7 million of start-up costs, both of which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations. These charges were partially offset by credits of $1.7 million primarily for lowered severance-related reserves based on changes in planned operating rates and revised workforce reduction estimates (see Note 7).

Restructuring and other charges of $9.2 million for the quarter ended July 2, 2023 include $2.7 million of severance-related restructuring charges as well as $4.5 million of start-up costs and $2.0 million primarily for asset write-offs for the closure of the Robinson, PA operations, both of which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations. Restructuring and other charges of $10.4 million for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 also include $1.2 million of additional start-up costs related to the Company’s titanium operations in Albany, OR, which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations.

Loss on asset sales and sales of businesses, net, for the quarter and year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 is related to a $0.6 million loss on the sale of the Company’s Northbrook, IL operations.

Note 12. Retirement Benefits

The Company has defined contribution retirement plans or defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all employees. Company contributions to defined contribution retirement plans are generally based on a percentage of eligible pay or based on hours worked. Benefits under the defined benefit pension plans are generally based on years of service and/or final average pay. The Company funds the U.S. pension plans in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company also sponsors several postretirement plans covering certain collectively-bargained salaried and hourly employees. The plans provide health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees. In most retiree health care plans, Company contributions towards premiums are capped based on the cost as of a certain date, thereby creating a defined contribution. All defined benefit pension and retiree health care plans are closed to new entrants.

For the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, the components of pension and other postretirement benefit expense for the Company’s defined benefit plans included the following (in millions): 

	Pension Benefits				Other Postretirement Benefits

Note 13. Income Taxes

For the quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate was 22.8% and 21.5%, respectively, resulting in an income tax provision of $25.3 million and $42.2 million, respectively. For the quarter and year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was 3.8% and 4.3%, respectively, resulting in an income tax provision of $3.7 million and $8.0 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 includes discrete tax benefits of $1.6 million, which includes the recognition of a stranded deferred tax valuation allowance in accumulated other comprehensive loss that was associated with the Company’s interest rate swap due to its maturity (see Note 15). Discrete tax benefits for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 were $4.7 million, which also includes $3.2 million for share-based compensation. The Company’s effective tax rates for the quarter and year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 were impacted by the net valuation allowance position in the U.S. and the Company’s foreign earnings.

Note 14. Per Share Information

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per common share: 

(In millions, except per share amounts)	Quarter ended				Year-to-date period ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023		June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023
Numerator:
Numerator for basic income per common share –
Net income attributable to ATI	$	81.9	$	90.4	$	148.0	$	174.9
Effect of dilutive securities:
3.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025	2.2		2.6		4.3		5.2
Numerator for diluted net income per common share –
Net income attributable to ATI after assumed conversions	$	84.1	$	93.0	$	152.3	$	180.1
Denominator:
Denominator for basic net income per common share – weighted average shares	124.4		128.5		125.3		128.5
Effect of dilutive securities:
Share-based compensation	3.1		2.8		2.8		2.8
3.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025	18.8		18.8		18.8		18.8
Denominator for diluted net income per common share – adjusted weighted average shares and assumed conversions	146.3		150.1		146.9		150.1
Basic net income attributable to ATI per common share	$	0.66	$	0.70	$	1.18	$	1.36
Diluted net income attributable to ATI per common share	$	0.58	$	0.62	$	1.04	$	1.20

Common stock that would be issuable upon the assumed conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes and other option equivalents and contingently issuable shares are excluded from the computation of contingently issuable shares, and therefore, from the denominator for diluted earnings per share, if the effect of inclusion is anti-dilutive. There were no anti-dilutive shares for the quarters and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023.

Periodically, the Company’s Board of Directors authorizes the repurchase of ATI common stock (the “Share Repurchase Program”), the most recent of which was $150 million in November 2023. Repurchases under these programs are made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases are structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of SEC Rule 10b-18. In the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, ATI used $150.0 million to repurchase 3.4 million shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program. At June 30, 2024, the Company has utilized the full amount currently authorized under the Share Repurchase Program. In the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023, ATI used $10.1 million to repurchase 0.2 million shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program.

The Company’s share repurchases are subject to a 1% excise tax as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Excise taxes incurred on share repurchases represent direct costs of the repurchase and are recorded as part of the cost basis of the shares within treasury stock. The cost of share repurchases for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 of $151.2 million differs from the repurchases of common stock amounts in the consolidated statements of cash flows due to these excise taxes.

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various domestic and international environmental laws and regulations that govern the discharge of pollutants and disposal of wastes, and which may require that it investigate and remediate the effects of the release or disposal of materials at sites associated with past and present operations. The Company could incur substantial cleanup costs, fines, and civil or criminal sanctions, third party property damage or personal injury claims as a result of violations or liabilities under these laws or noncompliance with environmental permits required at its facilities. The Company is currently involved in the investigation and remediation of a number of its current and former sites, as well as third party sites.

Environmental liabilities are recorded when the Company’s liability is probable and the costs are reasonably estimable. In many cases, however, the Company is not able to determine whether it is liable or, if liability is probable, to reasonably estimate the loss or range of loss. Estimates of the Company’s liability remain subject to additional uncertainties, including the nature and extent of site contamination, available remediation alternatives, the extent of corrective actions that may be required, and the number, participation, and financial condition of other potentially responsible parties (PRPs). The Company adjusts its accruals to reflect new information as appropriate. Future adjustments could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations in a given period, but the Company cannot reliably predict the amounts of such future adjustments.

24

At June 30, 2024, the Company’s reserves for environmental remediation obligations totaled approximately $14 million, of which $6 million was included in other current liabilities. The reserve includes estimated probable future costs of $3 million for federal Superfund and comparable state-managed sites; $7 million for formerly owned or operated sites for which the Company has remediation or indemnification obligations; $3 million for owned or controlled sites at which Company operations have been or plan to be discontinued; and $1 million for sites utilized by the Company in its ongoing operations. The timing of expenditures depends on a number of factors that vary by site. The Company expects that it will expend present accruals over many years and that remediation of all sites with which it has been identified will be completed within thirty years. The Company continues to evaluate whether it may be able to recover a portion of past and future costs for environmental liabilities from third parties and to pursue such recoveries where appropriate.

Based on currently available information, it is reasonably possible that costs for recorded matters may exceed the Company’s recorded reserves by as much as $16 million. Future investigation or remediation activities may result in the discovery of additional hazardous materials or potentially higher levels of contamination than discovered during prior investigation, and may impact costs associated with the success or lack thereof in remedial solutions. Therefore, future developments, administrative actions or liabilities relating to environmental matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations and cash flows.

A number of other lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its currently and formerly owned businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, environmental, health and safety matters and occupational disease (including as each relates to alleged asbestos exposure), as well as patent infringement, commercial, government contracting, construction, employment, employee and retiree benefits, taxes, environmental, and stockholder and corporate governance matters. While the outcome of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and some of these lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be determined adversely to the Company, management does not believe that the disposition of any such pending matters is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations for that period.

Beginning in 2020, the U.S. government enacted various relief packages in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, one of which was the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). The CARES Act included, among other items, provisions relating to refundable employee retention payroll tax credits. The Company applied for these employee retention tax credits and recognized a portion of the benefit from these credits as they were received in the statement of operations in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Due to the complex nature of the employee retention credit computations, the Company deferred recognition of a portion of the tax credits pending the completion of any potential audit or examination, or the expiration of the related statute of limitations. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a benefit of $8.6 million in cost of sales on the consolidated statement of operations due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for a portion of these credits. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has approximately $20 million of remaining deferred retention tax credits, of which the statue of limitations expire for $8 million in 2024 with the remaining expirations occurring in 2025 and 2027. There is pending legislation that could extend the statute of limitations, which would impact the timing of the expected recognition of the remaining credits if and when such legislation is passed.

Note 17. Subsequent Event

On August 2, 2024, the Company received notice that it and certain of its affiliates are parties to a lawsuit captioned William L. Schoen, Mary J. Nesbit, Robin L. Rosewicz, George E. Poole and James E. Swartz, Jr., individually and as representatives of a class of participants and beneficiaries of the Allegheny Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan v. ATI Inc., The Allegheny Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan Administrative Committee, State Street Global Advisors Trust Co., and John Does 1-5 (Case No. 2:24-cv-01109) and filed in federal district court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. The lawsuit asserts various claims associated with the Company’s October 2023 purchase of group annuity contracts to transfer a portion of its U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan obligations to Athene Annuity and Life Company and Athene Annuity & Life Assurance of New York. The Company disputes and intends to vigorously defend against these claims, but given the preliminary nature of these matters, cannot predict their outcome or estimate any range of reasonably possible loss at this time.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

ATI is a global manufacturer of technically advanced specialty materials and complex components. Our largest markets are aerospace & defense, representing 61% of sales for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, led by products for jet engines and airframes. Additionally, we have a strong presence in the energy markets, including specialty energy and conventional energy, as well as the medical and electronics markets. In aggregate, these markets represented 85% of our year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 sales. ATI is a market leader in manufacturing differentiated products that require our materials science capabilities and unique process technologies, including our new product development competence. Our capabilities range from cast/wrought and powder alloy development to final production of highly engineered finished components, including those used in latest generation jet engines and 3D-printed aerospace products.

ATI follows a 4-4-5 or 5-4-4 fiscal calendar, whereby each fiscal quarter consists of thirteen weeks grouped into two four-week months and one five-week month, and its fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. Unless otherwise stated, references to years and quarters in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate to fiscal years and quarters, rather than calendar years and quarters.

Second quarter 2024 sales increased 4.7% to $1.10 billion, compared to $1.05 billion of sales for the second quarter 2023, as increases in sales to the aerospace & defense, medical, automotive, and specialty energy markets were offset by continued softness in certain industrial markets, particularly conventional energy. Total aerospace & defense sales were 62% of total sales for the second quarter 2024 compared to 58% for the second quarter 2023. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2024 was $227.4 million, or 20.8% of sales, an increase compared to $209.1 million, or 20.0% of sales for the second quarter 2023. Second quarter 2024 gross profit includes a benefit of $8.6 million related to the recognition of previously deferred employee retention tax credits. The Company previously deferred recognition of a portion of these tax credits pending the completion of any potential audit or examination, or the expiration of the related statute of limitations. The benefit of $8.6 million recognized in the second quarter 2024 was due to the expiration of the statute of limitations for a portion of those credits. The Company recognized $3.5 million of the benefit in the HPMC segment and $5.1 million in the AA&S segment. Second quarter 2024 and 2023 gross profit also includes $1.8 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of start-up related costs, and $5.5 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of charges primarily related to inventory write-downs and asset write-offs, all of which are excluded from segment EBITDA. The charges in 2024 were associated with the ongoing restructuring of the Company’s European operations and the 2023 charges related to the closure of our Robinson, PA operations.

Restructuring charges were a credit for the second quarter of 2024 of $1.9 million, primarily related to lowered severance-related reserves based on changes in planned operating rates and revised workforce reduction estimates, compared to charges of $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2023 for severance-related restructuring charges for involuntary reductions across ATI’s domestic operations. Second quarter 2024 results include a $2.3 million gain on the sale of assets for our idled Houston, PA facility and second quarter 2023 results include a $0.6 million loss on the sale of our Northbrook, IL operations, both of which are reported in gain/loss on asset sales and sales of businesses, net. In addition, interest expense increased to $28.4 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $21.3 million in the second quarter of 2023 as a result of the issuance in August 2023 of $425 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% Senior Notes due 2030 (2030 Notes).

Our pre-tax income was $110.9 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $97.2 million in the prior year period. Our effective tax rate was 22.8%, resulting in an income tax provision of $25.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Our effective tax rate was 3.8%, resulting in an income tax provision of $3.7 million for the quarter ended July 2, 2023. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 includes discrete tax benefits of $1.6 million, which includes the recognition of a stranded deferred tax valuation allowance in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to the maturity of our interest rate swap. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 was impacted by the net valuation allowance position in the U.S. and our foreign earnings. Net income attributable to ATI was $81.9 million, or $0.58 per share, in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $90.4 million, or $0.62 per share, for the second quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA was $182.6 million, or 16.7% of sales, for the second quarter 2024, and $164.2 million, or 15.7% of sales, for the prior year second quarter. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are measures utilized by ATI to analyze the performance and results of our business. Further, we believe these measures are useful to investors and industry analysts because these measures are commonly used to analyze companies on the basis of operating performance, leverage and liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures and are not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or as alternatives to, a measure of operating performance as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). We define EBITDA as income from continuing operations before interest and

26

income taxes, plus depreciation and amortization, goodwill impairment charges and debt extinguishment charges. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding significant non-recurring charges or credits, restructuring and other charges/credits, strike related costs, long-lived asset impairments, pension remeasurement gains and losses, and other postretirement/pension curtailment and settlement gains and losses. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and capital expenditures. See the Liquidity and Financial Condition section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis for a reconciliation of amounts reported under U.S. GAAP to these non-GAAP measures.

Compared to the second quarter 2023, sales increased 7% in the HPMC business segment and increased 3% in the AA&S business segment in the second quarter 2024. In aggregate, ATI’s aerospace & defense markets sales increased 13% to $684 million, or 62% of sales, in the second quarter 2024, compared to $607 million, or 58% of sales the second quarter 2023, reflecting increases in sales of commercial aerospace airframe and jet engine products as well as defense products. In the HPMC segment, second quarter 2024 sales of aerospace & defense products increased 9% and sales to the medical market increased 36% compared to the prior year period. The increase in the AA&S segment reflects a 21% increase in sales of aerospace & defense products, a 43% increase in automotive sales, and a 63% increase in medical market sales, partially offset by declines in conventional energy sales.

Results for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 were sales of $2.14 billion and income before tax of $196.2 million, compared to sales of $2.08 billion and income before tax of $188.1 million for the comparable 2023 period. Our results for the first half of 2024 reflect increased sales to the aerospace & defense, medical and electronics markets partially offset by softness in the energy market. Our gross profit was $424.8 million, or 19.9% of sales, for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, a $22.5 million or 5.6% increase compared to 2023, despite outages and weather impacts in the first quarter of 2024. Year-to-date 2024 gross profit includes a benefit of $8.6 million related to the recognition of previously deferred employee retention tax credits due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. The Company recognized $3.5 million of the benefit in the HPMC segment and $5.1 million in the AA&S segment. Year-to-date 2024 and 2023 gross profit also includes $4.7 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of start-up related costs, and $5.5 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of charges primarily related to inventory write-downs and asset write-offs, all of which are excluded from segment EBITDA. The charges in 2024 were associated with the ongoing restructuring of the Company’s European operations and the charges for 2023 related to the closure of our Robinson, PA operations.

Restructuring charges were a credit for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 of $1.7 million, primarily related to lowered severance-related reserves based on changes in planned operating rates and revised workforce reduction estimates, compared to charges of $2.7 million for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 related to severance for the involuntary reductions across ATI’s domestic operations. Year-to-date 2024 results include a $2.3 million gain on the sale of assets for our idled Houston, PA facility and year-to-date 2023 results include a $0.6 million loss on the sale of our Northbrook, IL operations, both of which are reported in gain/loss on asset sales and sales of businesses, net. In addition, interest expense increased to $55.0 million in the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 compared to $41.2 million in the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 as a result of the issuance in August 2023 of the 2030 Notes.

Our pre-tax income was $196.2 million in the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, compared to $188.1 million in the prior year period. Our effective tax rate was 21.5%, resulting in an income tax provision of $42.2 million for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024. Our effective tax rate was 4.3%, resulting in an income tax provision of $8.0 million for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023. The effective tax rate for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 includes discrete tax benefits of $4.7 million inclusive of $3.2 million for share-based compensation as well as the impact from the recognition of a stranded deferred tax valuation allowance in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to the maturity of our interest rate swap. The effective tax rate for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 was impacted by the net valuation allowance position in the U.S. and our foreign earnings. Net income attributable to ATI was $148.0 million, or $1.04 per share, in the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, compared to a net income attributable to ATI of $174.9 million, or $1.20 per share, for the prior year period.

Compared to the first half of 2023, sales increased 9% in the HPMC business segment and decreased 4% in the AA&S business segment. In aggregate, ATI’s aerospace & defense markets sales increased 10% in the first half of 2024 compared to 2023, reflecting increases in sales of commercial aerospace airframe and jet engine products as well as defense products. Sales to the aerospace & defense markets in the HPMC segment were 11% higher than the first half of 2023, reflecting increases in commercial aerospace airframe and jet engine products as well as defense products. The decline in the AA&S segment reflects continued softness in certain general industrial end markets, particularly conventional energy, which were partially offset by an 8% increase in aerospace & defense sales and a 47% increase in medical market sales.

As part of managing the performance of our business, we focus on Managed Working Capital, which we define as gross accounts receivable, short-term contract assets and gross inventories, less accounts payable and short-term contract liabilities. We exclude the effects of inventory valuation reserves and reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable when computing this non-GAAP performance measure, which is not intended to replace Working Capital or to be used as a measure of liquidity.

29

We employ several strategies to actively manage our Managed Working Capital, seeking to effectively balance the need to maintain appropriate levels of Managed Working Capital to support our growth and operations, while deploying our cash efficiently. Our strategies to actively manage our Managed Working Capital include, but are not limited to, taking advantage of favorable customer and supplier payment terms, participating in customer and supplier financing programs, managing the timing of purchases of raw materials, and leveling manufacturing process throughput and shipping to limit periodic increases in Managed Working Capital. We assess Managed Working Capital performance as a percentage of the prior three months annualized sales to evaluate the asset intensity of our business.

At June 30, 2024, Managed Working Capital increased as a percentage of annualized sales to 35.5% compared to 31.1% at December 31, 2023. The increase in Managed Working Capital as a percentage of annualized sales was due in part to seasonal and strategic inventory builds and timing of shipments in the second quarter of 2024. Days sales outstanding, which measures actual collection timing for accounts receivable, worsened by 13% as of June 30, 2024 compared to year end 2023. Gross inventory turns, which measures how many times we turn over our inventory relative to cost of sales in a year, worsened by 11% as of June 30, 2024 compared to year end 2023. We continue efforts to focus on operational improvements to positively impact the inventory intensity of our business and alleviate the required investment of Managed Working Capital in our growing business, however, the first half of the fiscal year historically sees an increase in Managed Working Capital to support operations in the second half of the fiscal year.

The computations of Managed Working Capital at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, reconciled to the financial statement line items as computed under U.S. GAAP, were as follows. The June 30, 2024 amounts include management working capital balances that are classified as held for sale.

Segment EBITDA in the second quarter 2024 was $113.8 million, or 20.2% of total sales, compared to $109.7 million, or 20.8% of total sales, for the second quarter 2023. Results in the second quarter of 2024 included $3.5 million of benefits related to the recognition of previously deferred employee retention tax credits for government enacted relief packages in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that had statute of limitations that expired, which were mostly offset by higher incentive compensation costs. The margin decline quarter over quarter was primarily due to an unfavorable sales mix.

Sales for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 were $1.09 billion, an increase of 9% compared to the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023, primarily due to continued strong demand in aerospace & defense markets as well as increased medical market sales, which were up 65% compared to the 2023 comparable period. Sales to the commercial aerospace market increased 9%, as airframe sales increased 30% and commercial jet engine sales increased 5%, and sales to the defense market increased 22%. Sales to the energy markets decreased 24%, mainly due to lower specialty energy sales.

Titanium and titanium-based alloys	24	%	19	%
Precision rolled strip products	1	%	1	%
Total	100	%	100	%

Segment EBITDA in the first half of 2024 increased to $211.4 million, or 19.4% of total sales, compared to $191.3 million, or 19.2% of total sales, for the first half of 2023. HPMC segment results continue to be driven by content on next-generation commercial aerospace platforms. Results in the first half of 2024 included $3.5 million of benefits related to the recognition of previously deferred employee retention tax credits for government enacted relief packages in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that had statute of limitations that expired, which were mostly offset by higher incentive compensation costs.

Despite fourth quarter 2023 melt-related challenges that impacted first half 2024 sales, HPMC results for the first half of 2024 reflected year-over-year improved operating leverage as we continue to experience increasing demand from the aerospace & defense markets. To meet increased demand and capitalize on market opportunities, we continue to invest, including hiring new employees within the segment in 2024 as well as the continuation of our titanium melt expansion in Richland, Washington. Furthermore, our commitment to continuous improvement is resulting in adjustments to our work-flow processes to de-bottleneck our critical operations. We believe that these investments, strong backlog and our LTAs with aerospace market OEMs for our specialty materials, including powders, parts and components, position the HPMC segment for profitable growth for the next several years. Although the aerospace market OEMs have experienced some near-term challenges and delays in their estimated production ramps, we believe the backlog of commercial aircraft, increasing requirements for maintenance, repair, and operations, and the current OEM production forecasts support our growth expectations in this end market.

Advanced Alloys & Solutions Segment

Second quarter 2024 sales were $533.3 million, an increase of 3% compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily due a 21% increase in aerospace & defense products, 41% increase in specialty energy, and 63% increase in medical market sales, partially offset by continued softness in certain general industrial end markets, particularly conventional energy. Further, sales to the automotive market increased 43% compared to the prior year quarter.

Segment EBITDA was $87.5 million, or 16.4% of sales, for the second quarter 2024, compared to segment EBITDA of $74.1 million, or 14.3% of sales, for the second quarter 2023. The margin increase compared to the prior year was primarily due to a favorable sales mix as growth in titanium mill products and exotic alloys offset weaker demand for nickel-based alloys. Results in the second quarter of 2024 included $5.1 million of benefits related to the recognition of previously deferred employee retention tax credits for government enacted relief packages in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that had statute of limitations that expired, the majority of which were offset by higher incentive compensation costs.

Sales for the first half of 2024 were $1.05 billion, a decrease of 4% compared to the first half of 2023, as continued softness in certain general industrial end markets, especially conventional energy, was partially offset by an 8% increase in aerospace & defense products, 31% increase in electronics sales, and 47% increase in medical market sales. Further, sales to the automotive market increased 18% compared to prior year.

Segment EBITDA was $159.3 million, or 15.2% of sales, for the first half of 2024, compared to segment EBITDA of $157.8 million, or 14.5% of sales, for the first half of 2023. The margin increase compared to the prior year was primarily due to a favorable sales mix as growth in titanium mill products and exotic alloys offset weaker demand for nickel-based alloys. Results in the first half of 2024 included $5.1 million of benefits related to the recognition of previously deferred employee retention tax credits for government enacted relief packages in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that had statute of limitations that expired, the majority of which were offset by higher incentive compensation costs.

We continue to expect margin expansion within this segment through 2024 with improved sales mix and improving operating performance. Additionally, early signs of improving industrial demand would benefit overall operating leverage. We have increased capacity at our titanium melt shop in Albany, Oregon in the first half of fiscal year 2024, and expect to reach full production capacity at that facility in the second half of fiscal year 2024. While availability of raw materials for our melting processes remains adequate, changes in raw material prices may cause variability in profit margins based on the timing of index pricing mechanisms.

Corporate Items

Corporate expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $19.4 million, compared to $17.7 million for the second quarter 2023. For the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, corporate expenses were $36.5 million, compared to $34.6 million for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023. The current year increases reflect higher incentive compensation costs compared to the prior year periods.

Closed operations and other income for the second quarter 2024 was $0.7 million, compared to expense of $1.9 million for the second quarter 2023. For the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, closed operations and other expense was $0.6 million, compared to $3.2 million for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023. Closed operations and other income (expense) for the quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 includes a $2.3 million gain on the sale of assets for our idled Houston, PA facility included within gain on asset sales and sales of businesses, net, on the consolidated statement of operations, for which $3.5 million of proceeds were received and reported as an investing activity on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

The following table shows depreciation & amortization for the relevant periods by each business segment. Depreciation expense in the second quarter and year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 includes $0.8 million of accelerated depreciation on fixed assets for the closure of our Robinson, PA operations.

Interest expense, net of interest income, in the second quarter 2024 increased to $28.4 million, compared to $21.3 million for the second quarter 2023. Interest expense, net of interest income, for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 was $55.0 million, compared to $41.2 million for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023. These increases reflect the issuance of the 2030 Notes during the third quarter 2023. Capitalized interest reduced interest expense by $1.9 million in the second quarter 2024 and $3.3 million in the second quarter 2023. For the year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, capitalized interest was $5.9 million and $6.7 million, respectively.

Restructuring and other charges of $5.4 million for the second quarter of 2024 include $5.5 million of inventory write-downs related to our ongoing European restructuring and $1.8 million of start-up costs, both of which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations. These charges were partially offset by credits of $1.9 million primarily for lowered severance-related reserves based on changes in planned operating rates and revised workforce reduction estimates. Restructuring and other charges of $8.5 million for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 include $5.5 million of inventory write-downs related to our ongoing European restructuring and $4.7 million of start-up costs, both of which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations. These charges were partially offset by credits of $1.7 million primarily for lowered severance-related reserves based on changes in planned operating rates and revised workforce reduction estimates.

Restructuring and other charges of $9.2 million for the second quarter of 2023 include $2.7 million of severance-related restructuring charges as well as $4.5 million of start-up costs and $2.0 million primarily for asset write-offs for the closure of our Robinson, PA operations, both of which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations. Restructuring and other charges of $10.4 million for the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 also include $1.2 million of additional start-up costs related to the Company’s titanium operations in Albany, OR, which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations. These restructuring and other charges were excluded from segment EBITDA. Cash payments associated with prior restructuring programs were $4.1 million in the first half of 2024. Of the $9.4 million of remaining reserves associated with these restructuring actions as of June 30, 2024, all are expected to be paid within the next year.

Loss on asset sales and sales of businesses, net, for the second quarter and year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 is related to a $0.6 million loss on the sale of the Company’s Northbrook, IL operations.

Income Taxes

For the quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate was 22.8% and 21.5%, respectively, resulting in an income tax provision of $25.3 million and $42.2 million, respectively. For the quarter and year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023, our effective tax rate was 3.8% and 4.3%, respectively, resulting in an income tax provision of $3.7 million and $8.0 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 includes discrete tax benefits of $1.6 million, which includes the recognition of a stranded deferred tax valuation allowance in accumulated other comprehensive loss that was associated with our interest rate swap due to its maturity. Discrete tax benefits for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 were $4.7 million, which also includes $3.2 million for share-based compensation. The effective tax rates for the quarter and year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023 were impacted by the net valuation allowance position in the U.S. and our foreign earnings.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

We have an Asset Based Lending (ABL) Credit Facility, which is collateralized by the accounts receivable and inventory of our operations. The ABL facility also provides us with the option of including certain machinery and equipment as additional collateral for purposes of determining availability under the facility. The ABL facility, which matures in September 2027, includes a $600 million revolving credit facility, a letter of credit sub-facility of up to $200 million, a $200 million term loan (Term Loan), and a swing loan facility of up to $60 million. The Term Loan has an interest rate of 2.0% above adjusted Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) and can be prepaid in increments of $25 million if certain minimum liquidity conditions are satisfied. In addition, we have the right to request an increase of up to $300 million in the maximum amount available under the revolving credit facility for the duration of the ABL.

The applicable interest rate for revolving credit borrowings under the ABL facility includes interest rate spreads based on available borrowing capacity that range between 1.25% and 1.75% for SOFR-based borrowings and between 0.25% and 0.75% for base rate borrowings. The ABL facility contains a financial covenant whereby we must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00:1.00 after an event of default has occurred and is continuing or if the undrawn availability under the ABL revolving credit portion of the facility is less than the greater of (i) 10% of the then applicable maximum loan amount under the revolving credit portion of the ABL and the outstanding Term Loan balance, or (ii) $60.0 million. We were in compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio as of June 30, 2024. Additionally, we must demonstrate minimum liquidity specified by the facility during the 90-day period immediately preceding the stated maturity date of our 3.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 and the 6.95% Debentures due 2025 issued by our wholly owned subsidiary, Allegheny Ludlum LLC. The ABL also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness or liens or to enter into investments, mergers and acquisitions, dispositions of assets and transactions with affiliates, some of which are more restrictive, at any time during the term of the ABL when our fixed charge coverage ratio is less than 1.00:1.00 and our undrawn availability under the revolving portion of the ABL is less than the greater of (a) $120 million or (b) 20% of the sum of the maximum loan amount under the revolving credit portion of the ABL and the outstanding Term Loan balance.

As of June 30, 2024, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving portion of the ABL facility, and $31.7 million was utilized to support the issuance of letters of credit. At June 30, 2024, we had $426 million of cash and cash equivalents, and available additional liquidity under the ABL facility of approximately $556 million. We have no significant debt maturities until the second quarter 2025.

Periodically, our Board of Directors authorizes the repurchase of ATI common stock (the “Share Repurchase Program”), the most recent of which was $150 million in November 2023. Repurchases under these programs are made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases are structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of SEC Rule 10b-18. In the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, ATI used $150.0 million to repurchase 3.4 million shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program. At June 30, 2024, we have utilized the full amount currently authorized under the Share Repurchase Program. In the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023, ATI used $10.1 million to repurchase 0.2 million shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program.

We believe that internally generated funds, current cash on hand and available borrowings under the ABL facility will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs. Based on current actuarial assumptions, we are not required to make any contributions to our pension plan during year 2024. Also, we do not expect to pay any significant U.S. federal or state income taxes in year 2024 due to net operating loss and tax attribute carryovers. If we needed to obtain additional financing using the credit markets, the cost and the terms and conditions of such borrowings may be influenced by our credit rating. In addition, we regularly review our capital structure, various financing alternatives and conditions in the debt and equity markets in order to opportunistically enhance our capital structure. In connection therewith, we may seek to refinance or retire existing

36

indebtedness, incur new or additional indebtedness or issue equity or equity-linked securities, in each case, depending on market and other conditions. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of SEC Regulation S-K.

In managing our overall capital structure, we focus on the ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA, which we use as a measure of our ability to repay our incurred debt. We define net debt as the total principal balance of our outstanding indebtedness excluding deferred financing costs, net of cash, at the balance sheet date. See the explanations above for our definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures and are not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or as alternatives to, a measure of operating performance as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA (Adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratio) measures net debt at the balance sheet date to Adjusted EBITDA as calculated on the trailing twelve-month period from this balance sheet date.

Our Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Leverage ratio improved in the second quarter of 2024 compared to year end 2023, resulting from higher earnings, while our Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Leverage ratio worsened in the second quarter of 2024 compared to year end 2023, largely a due to a decreased cash balance. The reconciliations of our Adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratios to the balance sheet and income statement amounts as reported under U.S. GAAP are as follows:

	Quarter ended				Trailing 12-month period ended		Year ended
	June 30, 2024		July 2, 2023		June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023

Cash Flow

Cash provided by operations was $2.3 million in the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, compared to cash used in operations of $217.1 million in the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023. Both periods reflect higher accounts receivable and higher inventory balances due to increased operating levels, but these conditions impacted 2024 to a much lesser extent than 2023. Working capital balances, and consequently cash from operations, can fluctuate throughout any operating period based upon the timing of receipts from customers and payments to vendors. However, we actively manage our working capital to allow for the required flexibility to meet our strategic objectives. Other significant first half 2024 operating cash flow items included payment of 2023 annual incentive compensation. Other significant first half 2023 operating cash flow items included $50 million in contributions to the U.S. defined benefit pension plans and the payment of 2022 annual incentive compensation.

Cash used in investing activities was $117.1 million in the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, reflecting $126.0 million in capital expenditures primarily related to various growth projects to support the aerospace & defense and aero-like markets. Proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment in the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024 of $5.9 million largely relate to $3.5 million of proceeds received for the sale of assets for our idled Houston, PA facility. For the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023, cash used in investing activities was $100.8 million, reflecting $103.3 million in capital expenditures. We expect to fund our capital expenditures with cash on hand and cash flow generated from our operations and, if needed, by using a portion of the ABL facility.

Cash used in financing activities was $193.9 million in the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, which included $150.0 million to repurchase 3.4 million shares of ATI stock under our Share Repurchase Program authorized by our Board of Directors. For the year-to-date period ended July 2, 2023, cash provided by financing activities was $1.0 million, and included $50 million of borrowings under the Company’s ABL Credit Facility and $10.1 million of payments for the repurchase of 0.2 million shares of ATI stock.

At June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents on hand totaled $425.6 million, a decrease of $318.3 million from year end 2023. Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries, excluding the $9.6 million of cash held for sale, was $154.8 million at June 30, 2024, of which $93.9 million was held by the STAL joint venture.

Critical Accounting Policies

Asset Impairment

We monitor the recoverability of the carrying value of our long-lived assets. An impairment charge is recognized when the expected net undiscounted future cash flows from an asset’s use (including any proceeds from disposition) are less than the asset’s carrying value, and the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. Changes in the expected use of a long-lived asset group, and the financial performance of the long-lived asset group and its operating segment, are evaluated as indicators of possible impairment. Future cash flow value may include appraisals for property, plant and equipment, land and improvements, future cash flow estimates from operating the long-lived assets, and other operating considerations. In the fourth quarter of each year in conjunction with the annual business planning cycle, or more frequently if new material information is available, we evaluate the recoverability of idled facilities.

Goodwill is reviewed annually in the fourth quarter of each year for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Other events and changes in circumstances may also require goodwill to be tested for impairment between annual measurement dates. At June 30, 2024, we had $227.2 million of goodwill on our consolidated balance sheet. All goodwill relates to reporting units in the HPMC segment.

Management concluded that none of ATI’s reporting units or long-lived assets experienced any triggering event that would have required an interim impairment analysis at June 30, 2024.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes includes deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences in income for financial and tax purposes using the liability method. Such temporary differences result primarily from differences in the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Future realization of deferred income tax assets requires sufficient taxable income within the carryback and/or carryforward period available under tax law. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

The evaluation includes the consideration of all available evidence, both positive and negative, regarding historical operating results including recent years with reported losses, the estimated timing of future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, estimated future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards, and potential tax planning strategies which may be employed to prevent an operating loss or tax credit carryforward from expiring unused. In situations where a three-year cumulative loss condition exists, accounting standards limit the ability to consider projections of future results as positive evidence to assess the realizability of deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances are established when it is estimated that it is more likely than not that the tax benefit of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Retirement Benefits

In accordance with accounting standards, we determine the discount rate used to value pension plan liabilities as of the last day of each year. The discount rate reflects the current rate at which the pension liabilities could be effectively settled. In estimating this rate, we receive input from our actuaries regarding the rate of return on high quality, fixed income investments with maturities matched to the expected future retirement benefit payments. The effect on pension liabilities for changes to the discount rate, the difference between expected and actual plan asset returns, and the net effect of other changes in actuarial assumptions and experience are immediately recognized in earnings through net periodic pension benefit cost within nonoperating retirement benefit expense on the consolidated statements of operations when pension plans are remeasured annually in the fourth quarter or on an interim basis as triggering events require remeasurement. This immediate recognition is in accordance with the accounting standards.

38

For ERISA (Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) funding purposes, discount rates used to measure pension liabilities for U.S. qualified defined benefit plans are calculated on a different basis using an IRS-determined segmented yield curve, which currently results in a higher discount rate than the discount rate methodology required by accounting standards. Funding requirements are also affected by IRS-determined mortality assumptions, which may differ from those used under accounting standards.

Other Critical Accounting Policies

A summary of other significant accounting policies is discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding uncertainties that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Significant areas of uncertainty that require judgments, estimates and assumptions include the accounting for derivatives, retirement plans, income taxes, environmental and other contingencies, as well as asset impairment, inventory valuation and collectability of accounts receivable. We use historical and other information that we consider to be relevant to make these judgments and estimates. However, actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions that are used to prepare our financial statements.

Pending Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on new and pending accounting pronouncements.

Forward-Looking and Other Statements

From time to time, we have made and may continue to make “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain statements in this report relate to future events and expectations and, as such, constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include those containing such words as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “would,” “should,” “will,” “will likely result,” “forecast,” “outlook,” “projects,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which we are unable to predict or control, that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include: (a) material adverse changes in economic or industry conditions generally, including global supply and demand conditions and prices for our specialty materials and changes in international trade duties and other aspects of international trade policy; (b) material adverse changes in the markets we serve; (c) our inability to achieve the level of cost savings, productivity improvements, synergies, growth or other benefits anticipated by management, from strategic investments and the integration of acquired businesses; (d) volatility in the price and availability of the raw materials that are critical to the manufacture of our products; (e) declines in the value of our defined benefit pension plan assets or unfavorable changes in laws or regulations that govern pension plan funding; (f) labor disputes or work stoppages; (g) equipment outages; (h) the risks of business and economic disruption associated with extraordinary events beyond our control, such as war, terrorism, international conflicts, public health issues, such as epidemics or pandemics, natural disasters and climate-related events that may arise in the future; and (i) other risk factors summarized in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We assume no duty to update our forward-looking statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As part of our risk management strategy, we utilize derivative financial instruments, from time to time, to hedge our exposure to changes in energy and raw material prices, foreign currencies, and interest rates. We monitor the third-party financial institutions which are our counterparties to these financial instruments on a daily basis and diversify our transactions among counterparties to minimize exposure to any one of these entities. Fair values for derivatives were measured using exchange-traded prices for the hedged items including consideration of counterparty risk and the Company’s credit risk. Our exposure to volatility in interest rates is presently not material, as nearly all of our debt is at fixed interest rates.

Volatility of Interest Rates. We may enter into derivative interest rate contracts to maintain a reasonable balance between fixed- and floating-rate debt. The Company had a $50 million floating-for-fixed interest rate swap which converted a portion of the Term Loan to a 4.21% fixed rate, which matured during the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The Company designated the

39

interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge of the Company’s exposure to the variability of the payment of interest on a portion of its Term Loan borrowings. Any gain or loss associated with this hedging arrangement were included in interest expense.

Volatility of Energy Prices. Energy resource markets are subject to conditions that create uncertainty in the prices and availability of energy resources. The prices for and availability of electricity, natural gas, oil and other energy resources are subject to volatile market conditions. These market conditions often are affected by political and economic factors beyond our control. Increases in energy costs, or changes in costs relative to energy costs paid by competitors, have and may continue to adversely affect our profitability. To the extent that these uncertainties cause suppliers and customers to be more cost sensitive, increased energy prices may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. We use approximately 6 to 8 million MMBtu’s of natural gas annually, depending upon business conditions, in the manufacture of our products. These purchases of natural gas expose us to the risk of higher gas prices. For example, a hypothetical $1.00 per MMBtu increase in the price of natural gas would result in increased annual energy costs of approximately $6 to $8 million. We use several approaches to minimize any material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition from volatile energy prices. These approaches include incorporating an energy surcharge on many of our products and using financial derivatives to reduce exposure to energy price volatility.

At June 30, 2024, the outstanding financial derivatives used to hedge our exposure to energy cost volatility included natural gas hedges. Approximately 65% of our forecasted domestic requirements for natural gas for the remainder of 2024 and approximately 35% for 2025. At June 30, 2024, the net mark-to-market valuation of these outstanding natural gas hedges was an unrealized pre-tax loss of $3.3 million, comprised of $3.0 million in other current liabilities and $0.3 million in other long-term liabilities on the balance sheet. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, natural gas hedging activity increased cost of sales by $2.3 million.

Volatility of Raw Material Prices. We use raw material surcharge and index mechanisms to offset the impact of increased raw material costs; however, competitive factors in the marketplace can limit our ability to institute such mechanisms, and there can be a delay between the increase in the price of raw materials and the realization of the benefit of such mechanisms. For example, in 2023, we used approximately 70 million pounds of nickel; therefore, a hypothetical change of $1.00 per pound in nickel prices would result in increased costs of approximately $70 million. While we enter into raw materials futures contracts from time-to-time to hedge exposure to price fluctuations, such as for nickel, we cannot be certain that our hedge position adequately reduces exposure. We believe that we have adequate controls to monitor these contracts, but we may not be able to accurately assess exposure to price volatility in the markets for critical raw materials.

The majority of our products are sold utilizing raw material surcharges and index mechanisms. However, as of June 30, 2024, we had entered into financial hedging arrangements, primarily at the request of our customers related to firm orders, for an aggregate notional amount of approximately 4 million pounds of nickel with hedge dates through 2025. The aggregate notional amount hedged is approximately 5% of a single year’s estimated nickel raw material purchase requirements. These derivative instruments are used to hedge the variability of a selling price that is based on the London Metal Exchange (LME) index for nickel, as well as to hedge the variability of the purchase cost of nickel based on this LME index. Any gain or loss associated with these hedging arrangements is included in sales or cost of sales, depending on whether the underlying risk being hedged was the variable selling price or the variable raw material cost, respectively. At June 30, 2024, the net mark-to-market valuation of our outstanding raw material hedges was an unrealized pre-tax loss of $4.2 million, comprised of $3.7 million in other current liabilities and $0.5 million in other long-term liabilities on the balance sheet.

Foreign Currency Risk. Foreign currency exchange contracts are used, from time-to-time, to limit transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates. We sometimes purchase foreign currency forward contracts that permit us to sell specified amounts of foreign currencies expected to be received from our export sales for pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. In addition, we may also hedge forecasted capital expenditures and designate cash balances held in foreign currencies as hedges of forecasted foreign currency transactions. At June 30, 2024, we had no material outstanding foreign currency forward contracts.

We may also use derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges to protect our results from certain fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, as well as to offset a portion of the foreign currency gains and losses generated by the remeasurement of certain assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Changes in the fair value of these foreign exchange contract derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recorded in cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations, and we recognized $0.5 million of expense for settled foreign currency forward contracts that were not designated as hedges during the second quarter and year-to-date period ended June 30, 2024, which offset foreign currency gains in the relevant currency. We have no significant outstanding hedges that are not designated as of June 30, 2024.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

A number of lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its currently or formerly owned businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, environmental, health and safety matters and occupational disease (including as each relates to alleged asbestos exposure), as well as patent infringement, commercial, government contracting, construction, employment, employee and retiree benefits, taxes, environmental, and stockholder and corporate governance matters. Certain of such lawsuits, claims and proceedings are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and addressed in Note 16 to the unaudited interim financial statements included herein. While the outcome of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and some of these lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be determined adversely to the Company, management does not believe that the disposition of any such pending matters is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations for that period.

On August 2, 2024, the Company received notice that it and certain of its affiliates are parties to a lawsuit captioned William L. Schoen, Mary J. Nesbit, Robin L. Rosewicz, George E. Poole and James E. Swartz, Jr., individually and as representatives of a class of participants and beneficiaries of the Allegheny Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan v. ATI Inc., The Allegheny Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan Administrative Committee, State Street Global Advisors Trust Co., and John Does 1-5 (Case No. 2:24-cv-01109) and filed in federal district court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. The lawsuit asserts various claims associated with the Company’s October 2023 purchase of group annuity contracts to transfer a portion of its U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan obligations to Athene Annuity and Life Company and Athene Annuity & Life Assurance of New York. The Company disputes and intends to vigorously defend against these claims, but given the preliminary nature of these matters, cannot predict their outcome or estimate any range of reasonably possible loss at this time.
