CHICAGO – March 13, 2017 – Ryerson Holding Corporation (NYSE: RYI), a leading distributor and value-added processor of industrial metals, today reported results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2016.

Eddie Lehner, Ryerson’s President and Chief Executive Officer said, “I want to send a resounding thank you to our customers for giving us the opportunity to earn their business and support their growth. I also want to thank the Ryerson Team for a job well done in navigating through persistent demand contraction and selling price deflation through the first half of 2016. Our improved financial performance is the result of our passion for the customer experience, as we continue our company transformation as an intelligent network of service centers whose common core is built around speed, scale, value-add, culture, and analytics. During 2016 Ryerson increased market share, expanded gross margins, reduced costs, reduced interest expense, grew net income and EBITDA, improved working capital efficiency, reduced debt, and strengthened our capital structure, a list worthy of repeating on an annual basis.”

Balance Sheet Deleveraging and Working Capital Management

In 2016, Ryerson issued $650 million of Senior Secured Notes due 2022, issued common stock with net proceeds of $71.5 million used to further pay down debt, and amended its credit facility, thereby extending the maturity date to November 2021. “We’ve significantly improved our capital structure by reducing our debt by $279 million, or 22.4 percent, since 2014,” said Erich Schnaufer, Ryerson’s Chief Financial Officer.

In 2016, Ryerson’s inventory balance stood at 76 days of supply compared to 80 days in the year-ago period. “Our continued industry-leading working capital management provides financial flexibility and allows us to effectively adapt in volatile metal pricing environments,” continued Schnaufer.

2017 Acquisitions

In January 2017, Ryerson announced the acquisition of The Laserflex Corporation, a metal fabricator specializing in laser fabrication and welding services, with annual revenue of approximately $25 million. In addition, Ryerson announced a second acquisition in February 2017 of Guy Metals, Inc., a metal service center processing stainless and nickel alloy products, with annual revenue of approximately $35 million. “The acquisition of these competitively differentiated companies that offer industry-leading fabrication, polishing, and processing capabilities perfectly aligns with our transformational strategy. These organizations are well matched to our common core of speed, scale, value-add, culture, and analytics. We are excited to add their products and capabilities across our North American service center network,” said Lehner.

2017 Commentary

Ryerson intends to issue first quarter 2017 guidance in early April after LIFO and LCM reserve outcomes can be more accurately estimated given significant increases in industrial metals prices over the past four months. Qualitatively, demand has improved in oil & gas most notably while other end markets in aggregate are showing modest if unspectacular improvement. The better story thus far is supply side stabilization as policy lines have drawn a playing field in which prices are better supported as we move through the quarter.

Certain statements made in this release and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of the Company constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding our future performance, as well as management’s expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates, or projections relating to the future. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “estimates,” “will,” “should,” “plans,” or “anticipates” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. The Company cautions that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Among the factors that significantly impact the metals distribution industry and our business are: the cyclicality of our business; the highly competitive, volatile, and fragmented market in which we operate; fluctuating metal prices; our substantial indebtedness and the covenants in instruments governing such indebtedness; the integration of acquired operations; regulatory and other operational risks associated with our operations located inside and outside of the United States; work stoppages; obligations under certain employee retirement benefit plans; the ownership of a majority of our equity securities by a single investor group; currency fluctuations; and consolidation in the metals producer industry. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be considered in light of various factors, including those set forth above and those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note: EBITDA represents net income before interest and other expense on debt, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA gives further effect to, among other things, impairment charges on assets, reorganization expenses and foreign currency transaction gains and losses. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, provides useful information to investors regarding our operational performance because they enhance an investor’s overall understanding of our core financial performance and provide a basis of comparison of results between current, past and future periods. We also disclose the metric Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, to provide a means of comparison amongst our competitors who may not use the same basis of accounting for inventories. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, are three of the primary metrics management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods, including trending and analyzing the core operating performance of our business without the effect of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, expenses, revenues and gains (losses) that are unrelated to the day to day performance of our business. We also establish compensation programs for our executive management and regional employees that are based upon the achievement of pre-established EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, targets. We also use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, to benchmark our operating performance to that of our competitors. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net do not represent, and should not be used as a substitute for, net income or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and neither EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, is necessarily an indication of whether cash flow will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements. This release also presents gross margin, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, which is calculated as gross profit plus LIFO expense (or minus LIFO income), net, divided by net sales. We have excluded LIFO expense (income), net from the gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales metrics in order to provide a means of comparison amongst our competitors who may not use the same basis of accounting for inventories as we do. Our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, gross margin, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), net, as a percentage of sales may differ from that of other companies.
