"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 61%, up 10 percentage points over last year, and rapidly progressing toward our goal of 65%," he said.

"Results in our HPMC segment were driven by growth in aerospace and defense," said Wetherbee. "Third quarter segment sales and EBITDA margins were up significantly versus the prior year.  Sequential growth was modest due to normal business seasonality. Commercial airframe product sales in the segment more than doubled compared to the prior year, as the aerospace ramp continues."

Operating Results by Segment

High Performance Materials & Components (HPMC)
($ millions)	Q3 2023		Q2 2023		Q3 2022
Sales	$539.5		$527.1		$457.6
Segment EBITDA	$115.7		$108.1		$85.8
% of Sales	21.5 %		20.5 %		18.8 %

 

• HPMC's third quarter 2023 sales increased $12 million, or 2%, compared to the second quarter 2023, primarily driven by growth in the commercial airframe market.  Overall aerospace and defense sales were 85% of total HPMC sales in the third quarter 2023.  Third quarter 2023 sales improved 18% compared to the third quarter 2022, with total aerospace and defense related sales increasing 22% compared to the prior year period.   
• HPMC segment EBITDA was $115.7 million, or 21.5% of sales. Increased volumes on higher-margin next-generation commercial aerospace platforms continue to drive strong incremental margins.

Advanced Alloys & Solutions (AA&S)
($ millions)	Q3 2023		Q2 2023		Q3 2022
Sales	$486.1		$518.9		$574.4
Segment EBITDA	$50.4		$63.2		$75.8
% of Sales	10.4 %		12.2 %		13.2 %

 

• AA&S third quarter 2023 sales decreased by $33 million and $88 million compared to the second quarter 2023 and third quarter 2022, respectively.  Lower sales are primarily due to recessionary softness in general industrial end markets, as well as planned outages.  Partially offsetting, sales of commercial aerospace products increased by 7% compared to the prior year period.  
• AA&S segment EBITDA was $50.4 million, or 10.4% of sales.  Increases in titanium mill products deliveries were offset by reduced deliveries of nickel-based alloys and precision rolled strip products in the third quarter 2023.  Third quarter 2023 results reflect the previously communicated seasonal outages.  Year-over-year EBITDA was negatively impacted by increased pension expense in 2023.

Corporate Items and Cash

• Restructuring and other charges:
  • Third quarter 2023: $4.2 million includes pre-tax charges of $2.8 million for start-up costs and $1.9 million of costs associated with an unplanned outage at our Lockport, NY melt facility, partially offset by $0.5 million of restructuring credits.
  • Second quarter 2023: $9.2 million includes 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.
  • Third quarter 2022: $17.3 million includes a pre-tax charge of $19.9 million in connection with the settlement of litigation related to the 2016 indefinite idling of the Rowley, UT titanium sponge production facility, partially offset by restructuring credits of $2.6 million related to the reversals of previously recognized reserves, due to lower than expected severance-related costs.
• Corporate expenses in the third quarter 2023 were $12.9 million, compared to $18.1 million in the second quarter 2023, and $14.2 million in the prior year quarter. Third quarter 2023 corporate expenses, compared to the second quarter 2023, decreased in part due to lower incentive compensation.
• Closed operations and other expense was $5.1 million in the third quarter 2023, compared to $3.4 million in the second quarter 2023, and $6.3 million in the prior year quarter. Higher costs in the third quarter 2023, compared to the second quarter 2023, were associated with reduced foreign currency gains.
• Third quarter 2023 results include a $4.9 million income tax provision, compared to $3.7 million in the second quarter 2023, and $3.0 million in the prior year quarter. Tax expense in all periods is mainly attributable to the Company's foreign operations. 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 until 2025 due to net operating loss carryforwards.
• For the third quarter of 2023, cash used in operating activities was $114.2 million, and cash used in operating activities was $331.3 million on a year-to-date basis. The cash used in operating activities includes voluntary pension contributions of $222 million in the third quarter and $272 million on a year-to-date basis. Reduced accounts receivable and inventory levels were partially offset by lower accounts payable in the third quarter. Third quarter 2023 managed working capital as a percent of sales was 39.9%. Capital expenditures for the first nine months of 2023 were $147.3 million.
• Cash on hand at September 30, 2023 was $433 million, and available additional liquidity under the asset-based lending (ABL) credit facility was approximately $550 million. As of September 30, 2023, we had no outstanding borrowings on the ABL credit facility. ATI has no significant debt maturities until 2025.
• In August 2023, the company issued $425 million of 7.25% senior unsecured notes due in 2030, and used a portion of the proceeds, $222 million, to fund the qualified defined benefit pension plan as part of our long-term pension derisking strategy.
• In the third quarter 2023, the company repurchased $45 million of common stock at an average price of $43.93, retiring approximately 1.0 million shares. As of September 30, 2023, total share repurchase authorization available was $30 million.
• In October 2023, the company purchased group annuity contracts to transfer approximately 85% of the defined benefit pension obligations and related assets to an insurance company for approximately 8,200 plan participants. This transaction had no impact on the amount, timing or form of the retirement benefit payments to the affected retirees and beneficiaries.

Outlook

"We continue to drive increased margins to generate cash and deploy it effectively. As new long-term agreements accelerate, we are working proactively with our customers to meet their production needs," said Wetherbee. "We expect sequential and year-over-year ATI earnings growth in the fourth quarter, led by our HPMC segment."

HPMC EBITDA margins in the fourth quarter are expected to continue to improve year-over-year, in line with our prior guidance. Backlogs remain strong across aerospace and defense.  We continue to optimize operations and resolve bottlenecks that come with growing demand.  Continued process optimization will favorably impact future growth and performance.

In the AA&S segment, the Company assumes stable performance in the fourth quarter 2023, due to sustained growth in the aerospace and defense related markets.  These benefits will help offset certain recessionary forces impacting this segment.

The Company expects to generate significant cash from operations in the fourth quarter primarily due to improvements in managed working capital as we make progress on our ongoing strategic growth projects.

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.
