Management Commentary

Eddie Lehner, Ryerson's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I want to thank my Ryerson teammates for performing exceedingly well in the first quarter of 2021 as we built upon improving demand and self-help initiatives and delivered higher Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO than the full-year 2020 with exceptional asset management and expense leverage. I also want to thank our customers whose business we never take for granted and our suppliers for their support during what continues to be a time of market modulations without precedent or peer. Despite ongoing risks and challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, Ryerson is harvesting the benefits of its improved operating model while further strengthening its balance sheet with opportunities to accelerate debt reduction in firm sight. We share a collective gratitude of working safely and together as we navigate through year two of the pandemic. We continue to invest in digitalization, value-add capabilities and Ryerson's organizational culture to drive consistently great customer experiences at speed and scale across our intelligently interconnected metals service center network."

First Quarter Results

Ryerson achieved revenues of $1.15 billion in the first quarter of 2021, an increase of 13.6 percent compared to $1.01 billion for the first quarter of 2020, with average selling prices 18.4 percent higher and tons shipped 4.1 percent lower. On a per day basis, tons shipped declined by 2.5 percent year-over-year. Gross margin contracted to 17.2 percent due to higher cost of goods sold recognition, compared to 18.0 percent for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 19.4 percent for the first quarter of 2020. Included in first quarter of 2021 cost of materials sold was LIFO expense of $83.8 million, compared to LIFO expense of $10.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, and LIFO income of $20.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. Removing the impact of LIFO, gross margin expanded to 24.6 percent in the first quarter of 2021 compared to 19.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2020 and 17.4 percent in the first quarter of 2020. A reconciliation of gross margin, excluding LIFO to gross margin is included below in this release.

In the first quarter of 2021, warehousing, delivery, selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $16.1 million, or 10.3 percent compared to the same quarter last year, driven primarily by higher variable incentive compensation. However, Ryerson achieved expense leverage in the first quarter of 2021 as warehousing, delivery, selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of sales to 15.0 percent compared to 15.4 percent in the first quarter of 2020 and 17.4 percent in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Net income attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation for the first quarter of 2021 was $25.3 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, compared to net income of $16.4 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the year-ago period. Included in first quarter 2021 net income is a gain on the sale of assets of $20.3 million. Adjusted net income attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation, excluding the gain on sale of assets and the associated income taxes was $10.2 million for the first quarter of 2021, or $0.26 per diluted share compared to $15.8 million of adjusted net income, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. Additionally, due to the extreme commodity environment of the first quarter, the impact of LIFO cost of goods sold recognition was greater than anticipated. Adjusted net income attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation excluding the impact of actual LIFO expense exceeding our fourth quarter LIFO expense estimate and the associated income taxes was $34.6 million, or $0.90 per diluted share. Ryerson achieved Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO of $123.5 million in the first quarter of 2021, an increase of $89.1 million compared to the first quarter of 2020 and an increase of $89.9 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2020. A reconciliation of Adjusted net income (loss) to net income (loss) attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO to net income (loss) attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation is included below in this news release.

Liquidity & Debt Management

Ryerson's inventory days of supply decreased to 61 days as of the end of the first quarter of 2021, reflecting the improving demand conditions and simultaneous supply-side tensioning. This compares to 68 inventory days of supply for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 74 inventory days of supply for the same quarter last year. The Company continued to improve receivables and payables cycles in the first quarter, contributing to a cash conversion cycle of 53 days for the period, compared to 62 days for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 77 days for the year-ago period.

Ryerson's use of operating cash in the first quarter of $47.3 million was driven by working capital investments and pension contributions. This compares to a use of operating cash of $18.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and generation of $72.8 million in the year-ago period. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company sold its Renton, Washington facility, generating net proceeds of $26.3 million and recording a $20.3 million gain on the sale. Compared to the first quarter of 2020, the Company reduced total debt by $354.7 million, or 32.4%, lowering its leverage ratio to 3.3x versus 5.5x a year ago. Ryerson's global liquidity rose during the period from $373 million as of December 31, 2020 to $583 million as of March 31, 2021 as the Company's Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO and working capital assets rose in value consistent with higher underlying commodity drivers and recovering demand.

Jim Claussen, Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer said, "Ryerson's first quarter results highlight our teams' ability to expertly manage our working capital assets throughout this extraordinary environment. The fruits of our balance sheet transformation achievements were also exhibited in our results as our leverage multiple decreased toward our target of 1 to 3x and our net book value of equity increased to $175 million driven by our net income generation and significantly decreased cash interest expense."

Outlook Commentary

Although pandemic driven uncertainties persist, Ryerson is optimistic about the second quarter industry environment. At this point in the second quarter, demand fundamentals have continued to improve while supply-side constraints remain, resulting in price durability in all three of Ryerson's primary commodities. Given these factors, Ryerson anticipates second quarter 2021 revenues in the range of $1.32 billion to $1.34 billion driven by sequential average selling prices growth of 12 to 14 percent and shipment growth of 1 to 3 percent. LIFO expense in the second quarter is expected to be in the range of $74 to $78 million as average inventory costs continue to rise. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO is expected to be in the range of $131 to $135 million and earnings per diluted share are expected to be in the range of $0.49 to $0.60. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO to net income is included below in this news release.

Safe Harbor Provision

Certain statements made in this presentation 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, objectives, or projections relating to the future. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "objectives," "goals," "preliminary," "range," "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 our business are: the cyclicality of our business; the highly competitive, volatile, and fragmented metals industry 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; impacts and implications of adverse health events, including the COVID-19 pandemic; 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 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, 2020, 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, reorganization expenses, gain on sales of assets, gain on insurance settlement, gain or loss on retirement of debt, pension settlement charge, purchase consideration and other transaction costs, and foreign currency transaction gains and losses. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), 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), 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), 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), targets. We also use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), to benchmark our operating performance to that of our competitors. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), 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), 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), which is calculated as gross profit minus LIFO expense (income), divided by net sales. We have excluded LIFO expense (income) from 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), gross margin, excluding LIFO expense (income), and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), as a percentage of sales may differ from that of other companies.
