Exhibit 99.1
“Carpenter Technology delivered another strong quarter, generating $196.4 million of operating income in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027,” said Tony R. Thene, Chairman, President and CEO of Carpenter Technology. “This was the most profitable first quarter in the Company’s history, up 28 percent over the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, establishing a strong foundation for the rest of the fiscal year. The results, driven by productivity improvements, mix management and the benefits of pricing actions, were impressive for a quarter with increased preventive maintenance activities. Specifically, the SAO segment delivered $216.3 million of operating income and adjusted operating margin of 37.7 percent in the quarter, both significant increases over the previous year first quarter.”
“Notably, in the current quarter we saw a step up in demand, especially in the commercial aerospace supply chain. Customers in the aerospace structural and distribution sub-markets have increasing confidence in the industry’s ability to ramp and our engine customers are increasing activity to support new builds and elevated MRO activity. As a result, we saw increased sequential bookings across the commercial aerospace sub-markets, with the aerospace structural and distribution sub-markets leading the way. Further, in the strong demand environment, pricing continues to strengthen across our business.”
“We maintain our recently communicated fiscal year 2027 operating income outlook of $850 million to $880 million and our fiscal year 2029 operating income target of $1.2 billion to $1.3 billion which reflects the accelerating demand environment, continued benefits of pricing actions and the expected contribution from our brownfield capacity expansion project.”
“In addition, we are currently working on specific actions and projects to exceed our operating income targets for fiscal year 2027 and fiscal year 2029. With macro trends so strong and accelerating, we see additional upside to demand, pricing opportunity and productivity improvement that could drive our operating income even higher.”
“Altogether, we believe we have a compelling value creation story. We are delivering record results today with strong operating margins and levers to expand margins further, we see accelerating demand across our key end-use markets, and we continue to benefit from pricing actions. As a result, we have a clear path to significant earnings growth over the next several years, and we are positioned to create substantial long-term value for our shareholders.”

Financial Highlights
Q1 Q4 Q1
($ in millions, except per share amounts) FY2027 FY2026 FY2026
Net sales $ 798.2 $ 851.0 $ 733.7
Net sales excluding surcharge (a) $ 634.8 $ 679.7 $ 603.1
Operating income $ 196.4 $ 206.9 $ 153.3
Net income $ 162.5 $ 162.4 $ 122.5
Earnings per diluted share $ 3.25 $ 3.23 $ 2.43
Net cash provided from operating activities $ 52.8 $ 240.1 $ 39.2
Free cash flow (a) $ (24.8) $ 155.0 $ (3.4)
(a) Non-GAAP financial measures explained in the attached tables
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 were $798.2 million, compared with $733.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, an increase of $64.5 million (or 9 percent). Net sales excluding surcharge were $634.8 million for the current quarter, an increase of $31.7 million (or 5 percent) from the same period a year ago.
Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 was $196.4 million compared to operating income of $153.3 million in the prior year period. Earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 was $3.25 compared to earnings of $2.43 per diluted share in the prior year first quarter.
Cash provided from operating activities in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 was $52.8 million, compared to $39.2 million in the same quarter last year. Free cash flow in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 was negative $24.8 million, compared to negative $3.4 million in the same quarter last year. The increase in operating cash flow in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 reflects higher earnings partially offset by changes in working capital, primarily inventory, compared to the same quarter last year. The unfavorable change in free cash flow reflects increased capital expenditures compared to the prior year period, namely from the brownfield expansion. Capital expenditures were $77.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 compared to $42.6 million in the same quarter last year.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2026, the Company purchased 241,924 shares of its common stock on the open market for an aggregate of $133.9 million. As of September 30, 2026, $985.0 million remains available for future purchases under the $1.0 billion share repurchase program authorized in August 2026.
Exhibit 99.1
Total liquidity, including cash and available revolver balance, was $658.6 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2027. This consisted of $159.5 million of cash and $499.1 million of available borrowings under the Company’s Credit Facility.

Exhibit 99.1
The Company has two reportable segments, Specialty Alloys Operations (“SAO”) and Performance Engineered Products (“PEP”).
The SAO segment is comprised of Carpenter's major premium alloy and stainless steel manufacturing operations. This includes operations performed at mills primarily in Reading and Latrobe, Pennsylvania and surrounding areas as well as South Carolina and Alabama.
The PEP segment is comprised of the Company’s differentiated operations. This segment includes the Dynamet titanium business, the Carpenter Additive business and the Latrobe and Mexico distribution businesses. The businesses in the PEP segment are managed with an entrepreneurial structure to promote flexibility and agility to quickly respond to market dynamics. It is our belief this model will ultimately drive overall revenue and profit growth.
Corporate costs are comprised of executive and director compensation, and other corporate facilities and administrative expenses not allocated to the segments. Also included are items that management considers not representative of ongoing operations and other specifically-identified income or expense items.
The service cost component of net pension expense, which represents the estimated cost of future pension liabilities earned associated with active employees, is included in the operating results of the business segments. The residual net pension expense is included in other income, net, and is comprised of the expected return on plan assets, interest costs on the projected benefit obligations of the plans, amortization of actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs.

Management believes that removing the impact of raw material surcharge from operating margin provides a more consistent basis for comparing results of operations from period to period, thereby permitting management to evaluate performance and investors to make decisions based on the ongoing operations of the Company. Management uses its results excluding this amount to evaluate its operating performance and to discuss its business with investment institutions, the Company’s board of directors and others.

Management believes that the presentation of free cash flow provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition because it is a measure of cash generated which management evaluates for alternative uses. It is management's current intention to use excess cash to fund investments in capital equipment, acquisition opportunities and consistent dividend payments. Additionally, we will discretionarily use excess cash for a share repurchase program up to $1.0 billion of our outstanding common stock. Free cash flow is not a U.S. GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, cash flows calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
