New York, November 6, 2012 – Globe Specialty Metals, Inc. (NASDAQ: GSM) (the “Company”) today announces results for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 ended September 30, 2012.
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 of $200.7 million were up 5% from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and 15% from the prior year. Shipments of 70,030 MT were up 5% from the fourth quarter and up 29% from the prior year. The increase is largely due to the combination of the acquisition of Quebec Silicon and expansion of the existing business.
Net loss attributable to GSM for the first quarter was $5.7 million, compared to a net income of $8.8 million in fourth quarter and net income of $20.7 million in the prior year. Diluted loss per share for the first quarter was $0.08, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.12 in the fourth quarter and diluted earnings per share of $0.27 in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share on a comparable basis were $0.16 in the first quarter, compared to $0.17 in the fourth quarter and $0.28 in the prior year.
EBITDA for the first quarter was $6.8 million, compared to $28.7 million in the fourth quarter and $41.3 million in the prior year. EBITDA on a comparable basis was $31.1 million in the first quarter, $32.5 million in the fourth quarter and $42.5 million in the prior year.
Cash and cash equivalents totalled $182.1 million at September 30, 2012, an increase of $4.1 million from the fourth quarter, and total debt was $143.7 million, compared to $140.7 million in the fourth quarter, including the $30.1 million used to finance the Canadian acquisition and $16.7 million of financing for our two manufacturing joint ventures. Cash flow provided by operating activities was $15.9 million in the quarter and capital expenditures totalled $8.0 million in the quarter.

Forward-Looking Statements
This release may contain ''forward-looking statements'' within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as ''anticipates,'' ''intends,'' ''plans,'' ''seeks,'' ''believes,'' ''estimates,'' ''expects'' and similar references to future periods, or by the inclusion of forecasts or projections. Forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations and assumptions of Globe Specialty Metals, Inc. (the "Company") regarding its business, financial condition, the economy and other future conditions.
Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. The Company's actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. The Company cautions you therefore that you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as statements of historical fact or as guarantees or assurances of future performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include regional, national or global political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory conditions including, among others, changes in metals prices; increases in the cost of raw materials or energy; competition in the metals and foundry industries; environmental and regulatory risks; ability to identify liabilities associated with acquired properties prior to their acquisition; ability to manage price and operational risks including industrial accidents and natural disasters; ability to manage foreign operations; changes in technology; ability to acquire or renew permits and approvals; and, other factors identified in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the SEC.
Any forward-looking statement made by the Company or management in this release speaks only as of the date on which it or they make it. Factors or events that could cause the Company's actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, unless otherwise required to do so under the law or the rules of the NASDAQ Global Market.
EBITDA
EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure.
We have included EBITDA to provide a supplemental measure of our performance which we believe is important because it eliminates items that have less bearing on our current and future operating performance and so highlights trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income is provided in the attached financial statements.
