“We delivered a strong start to 2026, exceeding the upper end of our first quarter earnings guidance range,” said Kimberly A. Fields, President and CEO. “On a year-over-year basis, we achieved double-digit earnings growth, expanded segment margins, and improved first quarter operating cash flow by more than $220 million – our best quarterly performance in fifteen years. Our laser focus on operational discipline is delivering.

“While there are macro uncertainties, demand for our highly differentiated materials remains strong and customer production continues to ramp. Our disciplined execution, long-term contractual positions, and critical role across aerospace and defense markets position us well to navigate the environment. Based on our performance and outlook, we are raising our full-year adjusted earnings and free cash flow guidance.

“We’re delivering sustained operating efficiencies, with strong year-over-year margin and cash flow improvement,” said Fields. “That performance supports the Board’s additional $500 million share repurchase authorization. We continue to allocate capital in a disciplined way—investing for growth and returning cash to shareholders, including $75 million of repurchases in the first quarter.”

Operating Results by Segment

High Performance Materials & Components (HPMC)

($ millions) Q1 2026 Q4 2025 Q1 2025

Sales $614.3 $645.9 $584.1

Segment EBITDA(a)

$152.9 $155.0 $131.0

% of Sales 24.9 % 24.0 % 22.4 %

•HPMC’s first quarter 2026 sales decreased $31.6 million, or 5%, compared to fourth quarter 2025, primarily due to lower sales to the aerospace & defense and specialty energy markets, largely driven by planned maintenance outages and seasonality. Aerospace & defense sales represented 93% of total HPMC sales in the first quarter of 2026, up slightly from 91% in the fourth quarter of 2025.

•First quarter 2026 sales improved 5% compared to first quarter 2025, primarily driven by an 8% increase in the sale of commercial jet engine.

•HPMC first quarter 2026 segment EBITDA(a) was $152.9 million, or 24.9% of sales. The sequential increase in the segment margin rate was primarily due to favorable sales mix and pricing, partially offset by lower volume. The year-over-year increase in the segment margin rate was primarily due to higher volume and favorable sales mix and pricing.

Advanced Alloys & Solutions (AA&S)

($ millions) Q1 2026 Q4 2025 Q1 2025

Sales $537.2 $531.2 $560.3

Segment EBITDA(a)

$97.0 $98.5 $83.4

% of Sales 18.1 % 18.5 % 14.9 %

•AA&S first quarter 2026 sales increased $6 million, or 1%, compared to the fourth quarter 2025, primarily due to higher sales in the aerospace & defense sale markets, driven by increased demand for commercial jet engine products. Increased demand from the conventional energy markets also contributed to stronger sequential sales. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of electronics and specialty energy products. Aerospace & defense sales were 43% of total AA&S sales in the first quarter of 2026.

•First quarter 2026 sales decreased $23.1 million, or 4%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower sales to the conventional energy market. These decreases were partially offset by a 6% increase in aerospace & defense sales, driven by increased demand for commercial jet engine and defense products.

•AA&S first quarter 2026 segment EBITDA(a) was $97.0 million, or 18.1% of sales, which was down slightly on a sequential basis compared to fourth quarter 2025. The increase in the segment margin rate compared to first quarter 2025 was primarily due to favorable sales mix changes and favorable pricing of exotic alloys.

Corporate Items and Cash

•Restructuring and other charges:

◦First quarter 2026: $26.4 million includes pre-tax charges consisting of $4.8 million of transformation-related costs, $11.1 million of start-up and transaction-related costs, $8.1 million of restructuring-related severance and impairment costs due to the rationalization of certain facilities, and $2.4 million of losses on the sale of customer accounts receivable.

◦Fourth quarter 2025: $22.9 million includes pre-tax charges consisting of $12.3 million of transformation-related costs, $8.5 million of start-up and transaction-related costs, and $2.1 million of losses on the sale of customer accounts receivable.

◦First quarter 2025: $5.6 million includes pre-tax charges consisting of $4.0 million for start-up and transaction-related costs and $1.6 million of losses on the sale of customer accounts receivable.

•Corporate expenses in the first quarter 2026 were $17.0 million, compared to $19.4 million in the fourth quarter 2025, and $17.4 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease compared to fourth quarter 2025 was primarily due to lower incentive compensation costs.

•Closed operations and other income/expense was expense of $1.2 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to expense of $2.2 million in the fourth quarter 2025, and expense of $2.4 million in the prior year quarter. The reduction in expense on a sequential and year-over-year basis was primarily due to foreign exchange losses and changes in environmental reserves.

•First quarter 2026 results included a $16.1 million income tax provision, or an effective rate of 11.8%, compared to fourth quarter 2025 effective tax rate of 18.2% and first quarter 2025 effective tax rate of 17.3%. The lower effective tax rate on a sequential and year-over-year basis was primarily due to the timing and amount of discrete tax benefits.

•Cash provided by operating activities was $128.2 million for the first quarter 2026 period. Capital expenditures for the first quarter 2026 were $55.2 million.

•Managed working capital as a percent of annualized sales was 34.8% at the end of first quarter 2026, an increase of 230 basis points compared to the end of fourth quarter 2025.

The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assist in assessing operating performance on a consistent basis across multiple reporting periods by removing the impact of special items, which can vary from period to period, that management does not believe are directly reflective of the Company’s core operations. The Company defines special items as significant non-recurring or non-operational charges or credits, restructuring and other charges/credits, gains or losses from the sale of accounts receivable, strike related costs, goodwill and long-lived asset impairments, debt extinguishment charges, pension remeasurement gains and losses, other postretirement/pension curtailment and settlement gains and losses, and gains or losses on sales of businesses.

Adjusted net income attributable to ATI and related Adjusted EPS are calculated by adjusting net income attributable to ATI for the tax-effected impact of special items. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income, excluding net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and special items. Our measure of segment EBITDA, which we use to analyze the performance and results of our business segments, excludes net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, special charges, corporate expenses, closed operations and other income (expense). Our methods of calculating Adjusted free cash flow and Managed working capital are discussed in greater detail below under the headings “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” and “Managed Working Capital,” respectively.

Management believes presenting these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because it (1) provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding financial and operating performance by excluding certain items management believes do not directly impact the Company’s core operations, (2) permits investors to view performance using the same metrics that management uses to forecast, evaluate performance, and make operating and strategic decisions, and (3) provides additional information useful to investors on a period-to-period consistent basis that are commonly used to analyze companies’ operating performance. Management believes that consideration of these non-GAAP financial measures, together with our GAAP financial measures and the corresponding reconciliations, provides investors with additional understanding of the Company’s performance and trends that would be absent such disclosures.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not superior to or as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following tables provide the calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this press release:

(c) Fourth quarter 2025 includes a $0.3 million loss and first quarter 2025 includes a $3.7 million loss related to the sale of a non-core business previously reported in the HPMC segment.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Management utilizes a non-GAAP measure, Adjusted free cash flow, to assess the cash flow generation of the Company’s operations. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as the total cash provided by (used in) operating activities and investing activities as presented on the consolidated statements of cash flows, adjusted to exclude cash contributions to the Company’s U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan.

Management utilizes this measure to assess the cash flow generation performance of its business as it excludes cash contributions to the Company’s U.S. qualified benefit pension plan that are periodic rather than recurring. The impact of cash generated from the sale of assets and non-core businesses is included in the measure as the proceeds of such transactions are contemplated by Management in setting capital budgets to fund capital expenditures. Management believes this measure provides investors with additional meaningful insights as to the Company’s ability to generate cash in excess of operational and investing needs. Adjusted free cash flow is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest, tax, or other contractually required payments. Further, adjusted free cash flow should be viewed in addition to, and not superior to or as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

$ 128.2 $ (92.5)

Cash provided by (used in) operating activities excluding pension contributions 128.2 (92.5)

Cash used in investing activities (53.6) (50.6)

Adjusted Free Cash Flow $ 74.6 $ (143.1)

Managed Working Capital

As part of managing the performance of our business, we focus on Managed working capital, a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as gross accounts receivable, short-term contract assets and gross inventories, excluding the effects of reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable and inventory valuation reserves, less accounts payable and short-term contract liabilities. We assess Managed working capital performance as a percentage of the prior three months' annualized sales. Managed working capital is not intended to replace working capital or other GAAP financial measures or to be used as a measure of liquidity.

Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure focuses on the assets and liabilities most closely attributable to our core operations, allowing Management to quantify and evaluate the asset intensity of our business. Further, Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with additional insights into the Company’s effectiveness in balancing the need to maintain appropriate asset levels to support sales growth and operations while deploying our cash effectively.
