PITTSBURGH, May 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (NYSE: ATI) reported first quarter 2022 results, with sales of $834.1 million and net income attributable to ATI of $30.9 million, or $0.23 per share. First quarter 2022 results include a $25.1 million partial non-cash loss on the pending sale of the Sheffield, UK operations, which is projected to close in the second quarter of 2022. Results also include $28.7 million (pre-tax) of benefits related to U.S. government-sponsored COVID-19 relief including the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection Program and employee retention credits. The company benefited from these subsidies largely for preserving jobs throughout the global pandemic-related economic downturn, to enhance ATI's ability to remain ramp-ready for its customers.

Adjusted earnings per share* was $0.40, and ATI Adjusted EBITDA* was $125.0 million, or 15% of sales. Adjusted results exclude the partial loss on the pending Sheffield sale, a $6.8 million gain on the sale of the Pico Rivera, CA operations, which was completed in the first quarter 2022 as part of the exit from standard stainless products, an $8.6 million charge for litigation reserves, and a $1.1 million benefit for changes to previously recorded restructuring costs.
* Detailed reconciliations of the reported information under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) to adjusted non-GAAP figures are included in accompanying financial tables.
"Our robust first quarter results were driven by the ongoing expansion in our commercial aerospace market as well as growth in other key end markets. Our year-over-year and sequential earnings improvements include benefits derived from our commitment to remain ramp-ready for our customers and maintain appropriate employment levels throughout the pandemic," said Robert S. Wetherbee, Board Chair, President and CEO. "Our team worked diligently to control costs and reduce the impacts from supply chain challenges and covid-related disruptions at many of our facilities in the first quarter. We're ensuring adequate supply of raw materials, increasing prices where needed to offset inflation. We've also been successful hiring new employees to help us profitably meet future demand growth opportunities."

- HPMC's first quarter 2022 sales increased 9% compared to the fourth quarter 2021 as commercial aerospace sales increased 20%, led by demand for aero engine products, which represented more than 50% of total HPMC sales in the quarter. Sales to energy markets also increased 13% sequentially led by higher export sales to Asia. Sales improved 42% compared to the first quarter 2021, reflecting higher sales across nearly all end markets, led by commercial jet engines.
- HPMC segment EBITDA was $68.1 million, or 19.9% of sales. Results in the first quarter 2022 include $21.9 million of benefits from the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection program and employee retention credits, partially offset by labor and other costs related to ramp readiness. In the first quarter 2022, rapidly rising raw material costs outpaced quarterly index pricing mechanisms for mill product sales, resulting in margin compression compared to prior periods.

- AA&S first quarter 2022 sales increased 9% compared to both fourth quarter 2021 and the prior year. Compared to the fourth quarter 2021, sales to the aerospace and defense markets increased 29%, while increasing 47% year-over-year, due to significant growth in commercial airframe demand resulting from recent OEM and other share gains. Sales to the energy markets were 3% lower on a sequential basis, with lower project-based oil & gas demand partially offset by higher sales for chemical and hydrocarbon industry applications. Increased sales prices, resulting from higher base prices and elevated raw material pass-through mechanisms, also drove revenue increases compared to both prior periods and help to offset inflationary impacts.
- AA&S segment EBITDA was $75.3 million, or 15.3% of sales. Compared to the prior year periods, results reflect a stronger mix of nickel-alloy mill products as our footprint transformation following the exit of standard stainless sheet products nears completion. Sales of exotic materials from our Specialty Alloys & Components business also drove AA&S segment margin growth. First quarter 2022 segment EBITDA includes $6.8 million of employee retention credits, partially offset by labor and other costs related to ramp readiness.
Corporate Items and Cash
- First quarter 2022 results include a $25.1 million partial non-cash loss on the pending sale of the Sheffield, UK operations, primarily related to its long-lived assets, as required under U.S. GAAP. As previously announced on March 3, 2022, ATI's Board of Directors approved the sale of this business, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, which remain in process. ATI expects to recognize an additional non-cash loss of approximately $110 million when the sale process is completed, primarily relating to a UK defined benefit pension plan and cumulative foreign currency translation losses. The remaining assets and liabilities of this business are classified as held-for-sale as of March 31, 2022.
- The sale of the Pico Rivera, CA operations was completed in the first quarter 2022 as part of the strategy to exit standard stainless products, resulting in a $6.8 million gain.
- Restructuring and other charges were $7.5 million. This included an $8.6 million increase to reserves of the ATI Titanium LLC subsidiary for ongoing litigation related to its indefinitely idled Rowley, UT titanium sponge production facility. First quarter 2022 items also included a credit of $1.1 million to prior restructuring reserves for lower severance-related costs.
- Corporate expenses in the first quarter 2022 were $17.0 million, compared to $14.9 million in the fourth quarter 2021, and $12.2 million for the prior year quarter. Compared to prior periods, expense increases primarily related to business transformation initiatives and incentive compensation programs.
- First quarter 2022 results include a $4.9 million income tax provision, primarily related to our Asian precision rolled strip business. ATI maintains a valuation allowance on its U.S. deferred tax assets and does not expect to pay any significant U.S. federal or state income taxes for the next several years due to net operating loss carryforwards.
- For the first quarter of 2022, cash used in operating activities was $217.2 million, primarily related to higher accounts receivable and inventory balances due to increased operating levels and input costs. Additionally, raw material inventory levels were increased to ensure an adequate supply of inputs given the recent commodity market volatility brought on by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Managed working capital increased to 41.3% of sales. Capital expenditures were $26 million in the first quarter.
- Cash on hand at March 31, 2022 was $316.7 million, and available additional liquidity under the asset-based lending credit facility was approximately $370 million. ATI used $89.9 million to repurchase 3.5 million shares of its common stock, for an average price of $25.57 per share, in the first quarter 2022. Among other impacts, the Company's repurchases are expected to help mitigate dilution from the expected conversion to ATI stock of the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022, which mature on July 1, 2022 at a conversion price of $14.45 per share.
Outlook
"Looking ahead to the second quarter, we expect continued growth in our most significant end markets. In this environment, our lean cost structures will give us the advantage to improve earnings and margins versus the prior year. We'll continue to improve inventory efficiency, balanced with ensuring an adequate supply of input materials to achieve growth," said Wetherbee. "Recognizing the current geopolitical volatility in Europe and Asia creates both challenges and long-term opportunities for ATI, we're working closely with our customers and suppliers to ensure we are in the best position to effectively accelerate our business velocity and reward our stakeholders over time."

Allegheny Technologies Incorporated and Subsidiaries Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited, dollars in millions, except per share amounts) |
||
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures, used in managing the business, may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior periods. For example, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors because these measures are commonly used to analyze companies on the basis of operating performance, leverage and liquidity. Furthermore, analogous measures are used by industry analysts to evaluate operating performance. 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. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides the calculation of the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in the Company's press release dated May 4, 2022: |

Managed Working Capital |
|||
As part of managing the performance of our business, we focus on controlling 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. We assess Managed Working Capital performance as a percentage of the prior three months annualized sales to evaluate the asset intensity of our business. The March 31, 2022 amounts included managed working capital balances held for sale for our Sheffield, UK operations. |
