"ATI's growth as an aerospace and defense leader continues," said Robert S. Wetherbee, Board Chair and CEO. "As demand accelerates, the percentage of our revenue attributed to aerospace and defense reached 58%, up from 46% in the second quarter of 2022. We are making rapid progress toward our aerospace and defense sales goal of 65%," he said.

"Strong execution and operational performance drove further margin expansion in the second quarter, with our High Performance Materials and Components segment delivering 20.5% EBITDA margins, up from 17.0% in the prior quarter," said Wetherbee. "Overall, consolidated margins were up 150 basis points. This reflects improving operating leverage from higher production volumes and incredible work by the entire ATI team."

Operating Results by Segment

High Performance Materials & Components (HPMC)
($ millions)	Q2 2023	Q1 2023	Q2 2022
Sales	$527.1	$471.1	$396.1

Segment EBITDA	$108.1	$80.1	$60.3
% of Sales	20.5 %	17.0 %	15.2 %

HPMC's second quarter 2023 sales increased $56 million, or 12%, compared to the first quarter 2023, primarily driven by growth in the commercial jet engine market. Overall aerospace and defense sales were 83% of total HPMC sales in the second quarter 2023. Second quarter 2023 sales improved 33% compared to the second quarter 2022, with total aerospace and defense related sales increasing 38% compared to the prior year period.
HPMC segment EBITDA was $108.1 million, or 20.5% of sales. The incremental margins continue to be driven by increased volumes on higher margin next-generation commercial aerospace platforms.
Results in the second quarter 2022 included $5.6 million of benefits from the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection program.

Advanced Alloys & Solutions (AA&S)
($ millions)	Q2 2023	Q1 2023	Q2 2022
Sales	$518.9	$567.0	$563.4

Segment EBITDA	$63.2	$72.7	$104.6
% of Sales	12.2 %	12.8 %	18.6 %

AA&S second quarter 2023 sales decreased by $48 million, or 9% compared to the first quarter, 2023, primarily due to recessionary softness in general industrial end markets and lingering COVID impacts associated with our Asian precision rolled strip business. Sales of commercial aerospace products increased by nearly 50% compared to the prior year period.
AA&S segment EBITDA was $63.2 million, or 12.2% of sales. Reduced deliveries of nickel based alloys and precision rolled strip products in the second quarter 2023 were partially offset by increases in titanium plate deliveries. Second quarter 2022 results included a $9.9 million benefit from the settlement of Section 232 claims as well as lower retirement benefit costs when compared to the second quarter 2023.

Corporate Items and Cash

Restructuring and other credits (charges) in the second quarter 2023 include pre-tax charges of $4.5 million for start-up costs, $2.7 million of severance-related restructuring charges, and $2.8 million primarily for asset write-offs related to the closure of our Robinson, PA operation, of which $0.8 million was accelerated depreciation on fixed assets. First quarter 2023 results include a $1.2 million pre-tax charge for costs to restart our titanium operations in Albany, OR. Second quarter 2022 results include a $1.3 million pre-tax credit for restructuring charges primarily related to lowered severance-related reserves based on changes in planned operating rates and revised workforce reduction estimates.
Corporate expenses in the second quarter 2023 were $18.1 million, compared to $17.3 million in the first quarter 2023, and $16.7 million in the prior year quarter.
Closed operations and other expense was $3.4 million in the second quarter 2023, compared to $2.8 million in the first quarter 2023, and $5.1 million in the prior year quarter. Higher costs in the second quarter 2023, compared to the first quarter 2023, were associated with higher facility costs at closed locations.
Second quarter 2023 results include a $3.7 million income tax provision, compared to $4.3 million in the first quarter 2023, and $3.4 million in the prior year quarter. This expense is 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 in 2023 due to net operating loss carryforwards.
For the second quarter of 2023, cash provided by operating activities was $68.1 million, and cash used in operating activities was $217.1 million on a year-to-date basis. Inventory levels increased in the second quarter as a result of a strategic nickel purchase to ensure continuity of supply, which was funded by a $50 million draw on our asset based lending credit facility. As a result of the strategic purchase, second quarter 2023 managed working capital as a percent of sales was 39.0%. Capital expenditures for the first half of 2023 were $103.3 million.
Cash on hand at June 30, 2023 was $267 million, and available additional liquidity under the asset-based lending (ABL) credit facility was approximately $500 million. ATI has no significant debt maturities until 2025.
On April 28, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of $75 million of ATI stock.

Outlook

"Our laser focus on executing our commitments gives us the opportunity to expand for the future. We're investing in both the additional capacity our customers need, and growing our capabilities to solve their most difficult challenges," said Wetherbee. "With our restarted Albany, Oregon titanium melt shop fully operational in the third quarter, and a brownfield expansion well underway in Richland, Washington, we're well-positioned to capitalize on market opportunities," said Wetherbee. "We are confident in our ability to deliver for 2023 and beyond, executing on our long-term strategy."

ATI Inc.
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 this press release:

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.
