Management Commentary

“We delivered strong operational and financial performance in 2023 in a challenging environment. Strategic organic volume growth coupled with a full year gross profit margin of 30.7% and effective expense management resulted in annual earnings per diluted share of $22.64, the second highest in our history,” said Karla Lewis, President and Chief Executive Officer of Reliance. “Despite our average selling price per ton sold declining across nearly all of our major commodity products in 2023, we maintained our gross profit margin near the top of our estimated sustainable range due to our strong pricing discipline and significant capital reinvestment to increase our capacity and value added processing capabilities. I’d like to thank our dedicated team throughout our family of companies for safely executing our resilient business model and providing increasing levels of value to our customers which increased our market share and outperformed the broader service center industry.”

Mrs. Lewis continued, “Strong profitability generated significant cash flow from operations of $1.67 billion in 2023, also the second highest in our history, which we allocated to growth opportunities through $492.8 million in capital expenditures and acquisitions as well as returning $717.6 million to our stockholders through dividends and share repurchases. Through our ongoing acquisition strategy, we welcomed Cooksey Iron & Metal Company to our family of companies, and we look forward to welcoming American Alloy in the near future.”

Mrs. Lewis concluded, “I’m excited to introduce our new company identity as Reliance, Inc. Over the years, retaining ‘Steel & Aluminum’ in our corporate name has limited the perception of our company because Reliance is so much more than metal. We are a family of companies committed to providing diversified metals solutions and increasing levels of value to our customers, opportunities to our employees and returns to our stockholders. Reliance has historically made investments in our business far in excess of our peers while consistently generating industry-leading results. We have become stronger and more diversified, collaborative and focused as we further differentiate Reliance as a best in class company. We believe these developments, as well as our longstanding reputation for credibility with all of our stakeholders, have made ‘Reliance’ a name that stands alone.”

End Market Commentary

Reliance provides a diverse range of metal products and value-added processing services to a wide range of end markets, generally in small quantities on an as-needed basis. The Company’s tons sold in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 4.9% year-over-year primarily led by strength in the non-residential construction, aerospace and general manufacturing end markets along with increased volumes attributable to organic growth investments. For the full year of 2023, the Company’s tons sold increased 3.7%, surpassing the industry-wide increase of 1.5% reported by the MSCI for the comparable period.

Demand in non-residential construction (including infrastructure), Reliance’s largest end market, demonstrated strong year-over-year improvement in both the fourth quarter and full year of 2023. The Company remains cautiously optimistic non-residential construction activity in the sectors in which it participates will remain at healthy levels in the first quarter of 2024.

Demand in commercial aerospace was very strong in both the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 compared to the comparable periods in 2022. Reliance is optimistic commercial aerospace demand will remain solid in the first quarter of 2024. Additionally, defense appropriations provide a solid foundation for growth in the military, defense and space related portions of Reliance’s aerospace business, which is expected to continue in the first quarter of 2024.

Demand for the toll processing services Reliance provides to the automotive market improved in both the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 compared to the comparable periods in 2022, with meaningful growth in its processing volume. Reliance remains optimistic that demand for the niche toll processing services it provides the automotive market will continue to improve over the long-term and in the first quarter of 2024.

Demand across the broader manufacturing sectors Reliance serves improved modestly in both the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 compared to the comparable periods in 2022, primarily as a result of the Company’s investments in organic growth opportunities. Reliance anticipates that demand for its products across the broader manufacturing sector will remain at healthy levels in the first quarter of 2024.

While demand in the semiconductor market declined in both the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 compared to the comparable periods in 2022 due to excess inventory in the supply chain, it stabilized sequentially in the fourth quarter. Reliance’s long-term outlook for the semiconductor market remains positive, reinforced by the CHIPS Act and investments in additional capacity to service the significant semiconductor fabrication expansion efforts underway in the United States.

Balance Sheet & Cash Flow

At December 31, 2023, Reliance’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.08 billion with total debt outstanding of $1.15 billion and no outstanding borrowings under the Company’s $1.5 billion revolving credit facility. Reliance generated cash flow from operations of $525.6 million and $1.67 billion, respectively, in the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

Stockholder Return Activity

On February 13, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.10 per share of common stock, an increase of 10.0%, payable on March 22, 2024 to stockholders of record as of March 8, 2024. Reliance has paid regular quarterly cash dividends for 64 consecutive years without reduction or suspension and has increased the dividend 31 times since its 1994 IPO to a current annual rate of $4.40 per common share.

In the fourth quarter of 2023, Reliance repurchased 942,407 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $255.05 per share, for a total of $240.3 million, under its share repurchase program that was replenished to $1.5 billion effective October 30, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2023, Reliance repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares of its common stock at an average cost of $255.30, for a total of $479.5 million. In the last three years, Reliance has repurchased approximately 7.5 million shares of its common stock at an average cost of $190.85 per share, for a total of $1.43 billion.

Acquisitions

As previously announced, on February 1, 2024, Reliance completed the acquisition of Cooksey Iron & Metal Company (“Cooksey”), a metals service center that processes and distributes finished steel products, including tubing, beams, plates and bars. The addition of Cooksey strengthens and expands Reliance’s position in the fast-growing Southeastern United States market. Cooksey will operate as a subsidiary of Metals USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Reliance. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, annual net sales for Cooksey were approximately $90 million.

As announced yesterday, February 14, 2024, Reliance has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire American Alloy Steel, Inc. (“American Alloy”), a leading distributor of specialty carbon and alloy steel plate and round bar, including pressure vessel quality (PVQ) material. American Alloy adds specialty carbon steel plate to Reliance’s product portfolio as well as new fabrication capabilities. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, annual net sales for American Alloy were approximately $310 million. The transaction is expected to close within the next 60 days, subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions.

Corporate Name Change to Reliance, Inc.

Effective today, Reliance has changed its corporate name from Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co. to Reliance, Inc. to reflect the Company’s evolution to “more than metal” as a leading global diversified metals solutions provider. Retaining the Reliance brand identity honors the Company’s strong reputation built over 85 years from its humble roots to becoming the largest metals service center company in North America with a global footprint of more than 315 locations in 40 U.S. states and 12 countries. Modernization of the Reliance brand symbolizes how the Company has become much more than just a distributor of steel and aluminum. Reliance, Inc. is the culmination of a decades-long journey resulting from focused execution of an enduring strategic vision to be a best-in-class industrials company working collaboratively throughout its family of companies to deliver exceptional service to customers, pursue diversified growth opportunities, generate industry-leading returns for stockholders, positively contribute to the communities in which we live and work and provide a safe environment where employees are proud to work.

The Company’s stock ticker symbol on the New York Stock Exchange will remain “RS” and the CUSIP number for its common stock will also remain unchanged. Trading under the name Reliance, Inc. will begin on Monday, February, 26, 2024. No action is required by stockholders in connection with the name change.

Reliance’s website has also been updated – the Company welcomes you to visit reliance.com.

Business Outlook

Reliance expects healthy demand trends to continue into the first quarter of 2024 despite continuing macroeconomic uncertainty and geopolitical matters. Accordingly, the Company estimates its tons sold will be up 9% to 11% compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, consistent with seasonal trends. Reliance expects its average selling price per ton sold for the first quarter of 2024 to be up 1.0% to 3.0% compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 driven by stabilizing pricing trends for many of its products. Based on these expectations, the Company anticipates non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in the range of $5.30 to $5.50 for the first quarter of 2024.

Reliance, Inc.’s presentation of non-GAAP pretax income, net income and EPS over certain time periods is an attempt to provide meaningful comparisons to the Company's historical performance for its existing and future stockholders. Adjustments include restructuring charges, gains on sales of non-core property, plant, and equipment, non-recurring expenses of its fourth quarter 2021 acquisitions and non-recurring settlement charges and credits, which make comparisons of the Company’s operating results between periods difficult using GAAP measures. Reliance, Inc.’s presentation of gross profit margin - FIFO, which is calculated as gross profit plus LIFO expense (or minus LIFO income) divided by net sales, is presented in order to provide a means of comparison amongst its competitors who may not use the same inventory valuation method. Please see footnote 1 below for additional information on the Company’s gross profit and gross profit margin. Reliance, Inc. presents net debt- and total debt-to-EBITDA as a measurement of leverage utilized by management to monitor its debt levels in relation to its operating cash flow for which it utilizes EBITDA as a proxy.

Footnotes

¹ Gross profit, calculated as net sales less cost of sales, and gross profit margin, calculated as gross profit divided by net sales, are non-GAAP financial measures as they exclude depreciation and amortization expense associated with the corresponding sales. About half of Reliance's orders are basic distribution with no processing services performed. For the remainder of its sales orders, Reliance performs “first-stage” processing, which is generally not labor intensive as it is simply cutting the metal to size. Because of this, the amount of related labor and overhead, including depreciation and amortization, is not significant and is excluded from cost of sales. Therefore, Reliance’s cost of sales is substantially comprised of the cost of the material it sells. Reliance uses gross profit and gross profit margin, as shown, as measures of operating performance. Gross profit and gross profit margin are important operating and financial measures, as their fluctuations can have a significant impact on Reliance's earnings. Gross profit and gross profit margin, as presented, are not necessarily comparable with similarly titled measures for other companies.

² See accompanying Non-GAAP Reconciliation. Certain percentages may not calculate due to rounding.

³ Free cash flow is calculated as cash provided by operations reduced by capital expenditures.

⁴ Net debt-to-total capital is calculated as carrying amount of debt (net of cash) divided by total Reliance stockholders’ equity plus carrying amount of debt (net of cash).

⁵ Net debt- and total debt-to-EBITDA are calculated as carrying amount of debt (net of cash) or total debt divided by earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and impairment of long-lived assets (“EBITDA”) for the most recent twelve months.
