Management Commentary

Eddie Lehner, Ryerson's President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, said, "I want to thank all of my Ryerson teammates for their dedicated efforts in the service of operating safely and productively during the quarter, and I want to thank our customers for the opportunity to create and deliver great customer experiences which we never take for granted. As we embark on the third year of our growth and modernization investment cycle, we are pleased to mark two important milestones: the start of operations at our University Park, IL service center and the completion of the final stage of our ERP system unification program across 31 service centers from 2022 through the first quarter of 2024. These investments are notable keystones in creating Ryerson's next generation operating model that enables the building of additional operating and earnings leverage as we move from counter-cyclical business conditions that we have experienced since the second half of 2022 to the next industry upturn whose exact timing, while unknown, will eventually arrive.

During the first quarter of 2024, we met our guidance range for revenue and shipments but missed on earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO. The variance from guidance was partially due to lower than expected gross margins as commodity price moving averages for our carbon and stainless product franchises declined through the quarter before inflecting positively toward the end of the quarter. Additionally, our results differing from guidance expectations was also partially attributable to transitory operating expenses as a by-product of a record investment cycle in fixed assets, digitalization and acquisitions, which is migrating to more normative and targeted levels. As we move through the third year of our operating model investment program, it is time to begin the integration and optimization phase of our operating model renovation. As such, we are targeting $40 million in annual cost take-outs that reflect investment inertia and require well–placed paring and pruning. These cost saving measures are expected to result in $25 million in savings during the balance of 2024. As we move through the second quarter of the year, I am encouraged by stabilization in the carbon sheet market, improvements in bright metal commodity price indices, and incrementally better quoting and order activity across our network of industrial metal service centers."

First Quarter Results

Ryerson generated net sales of $1.24 billion in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 11.4%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, and in line with guidance expectations. This was driven by seasonally higher volumes which increased 10.4% and average selling prices increasing 0.8%.

Gross margin contracted sequentially by 460 basis points to 17.6% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 22.2% in the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily driven by $59 million in LIFO income recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to LIFO expense of $1 million recorded in the first quarter of 2024, as well as lower average selling prices for our stainless steel products and higher costs of goods sold reflecting sales of higher-cost materials. In the first quarter of 2024, LIFO expense of $1 million was approximately in-line with our guidance expectations of a LIFO impact of zero. Excluding the impact of LIFO, gross margin expanded 70 basis points to 17.6% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 16.9% in the fourth quarter.

Warehousing, delivery, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 6.4% to $216.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $203.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher investment-related expenses and higher operating expenses from recent acquisitions. These increased costs were partially offset by lower depreciation expenses.

Net loss attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation for the first quarter of 2024 was $7.6 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to net income of $25.8 million, or $0.74 per diluted share in the previous quarter. Ryerson generated Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO, of $40.2 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO of $25.9 million.

Liquidity & Debt Management

Ryerson used $47.8 million of operating cash in the first quarter of 2024 largely due to a build in working capital of $32.3 million as well as a net loss attributable to Ryerson Holding of $7.6 million. The working capital build was attributable to the Company's increase in inventory and receivables. Ryerson's inventory build was driven by improving service levels to customers amidst investment related knock-on effects and post-pandemic inventory placement optimizations, while receivables increased due to higher sales compared to the prior quarter. The Company ended the first quarter of 2024 with $497 million of debt and $455 million of net debt, sequential increases of $61 million and $73 million, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. Ryerson's net leverage ratio as of the first quarter of 2024 was 2.5x, above the high-end of the Company's target leverage range. Ryerson's global liquidity, composed of cash and cash equivalents and availability on its revolving credit facilities, increased to $684 million as of March 31, 2024, compared to $656 million as of December 31, 2023.

Shareholder Return Activity

Dividends. On April 30, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.1875 per share of common stock, payable on June 20, 2024, to stockholders of record as of June 6, 2024, unchanged from the prior quarter. During the first quarter of 2024, Ryerson paid a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.1875 per share, amounting to a cash return of approximately $6.4 million.

Share Repurchase. Ryerson repurchased 30,120 shares for $1.0 million in the open market during the first quarter of 2024. Ryerson made these repurchases in accordance with its share repurchase authorization, which allows the Company to acquire up to an aggregate amount of $100.0 million of the Company's common stock through April of 2025. As of March 31, 2024, $38.4 million of the $100.0 million remained under the existing authorization.

Outlook Commentary

For the second quarter of 2024, Ryerson expects customer shipments to increase 1% to 3%, quarter-over-quarter. The Company anticipates second quarter net sales to be in the range of $1.25 billion to $1.29 billion, with average selling prices increasing 0% to 1%. LIFO expense in the second quarter of 2024 is expected to be $1 million. We expect adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO in the range of $47 million to $53 million and earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.15 to $0.25.

Note: EBITDA represents net income (loss) 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, pension settlement losses, benefit plan curtailment gains, 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.
