AGY HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

1. GENERAL

Overview — As used in this Form 10-Q and in these notes, the terms “AGY”, the “Company”, “we,” “us,” or “our” mean AGY Holding Corp. and subsidiary companies. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are those of AGY Holding Corp. and subsidiary companies. Refer to Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Form 10-K”) for a discussion of our significant accounting policies.

AGY Holding Corp. is a Delaware corporation with its headquarters in South Carolina. KAGY Holding Company, Inc. (“Holdings”) is the sole shareholder of the Company. AGY is a leading manufacturer of advanced glass fibers that are used as reinforcing materials in numerous diverse, high-value applications, including aircraft laminates, ballistic armor, pressure vessels, roofing membranes, insect screening, architectural fabrics, and specialty electronics. AGY is focused on serving end-markets that require glass fibers for applications with demanding performance criteria, such as the aerospace, defense, construction, electronics, automotive, and industrial end-markets.

Currently, the Company has two manufacturing facilities in the United States and one in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) and operates as two reportable segments (each a single operating segment) consisting of AGY U.S. manufacturing operations (“AGY US”) and AGY Asian manufacturing operations (“AGY Asia”).

Basis of Consolidation and Presentation — The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 was derived from audited 2011 consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of items of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair statement of financial condition and results of operations have been included. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

The Company’s business is conducted through AGY Holding Corp., its two wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, AGY Aiken LLC and AGY Huntingdon LLC and its wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, AGY Europe SARL (France) and AGY Cayman LLC (Cayman Islands). AGY Cayman LLC (Cayman Islands) is the holding company of the 70% controlling ownership in AGY Hong Kong Ltd. (formerly Main Union Industrial Ltd.) and its subsidiaries (which are collectively referred to herein as “AGY Asia”) since June 10, 2009. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2011 Form 10-K. The December 31, 2011 balances are derived from the audited financial statements in the 2011 Form 10-K.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those identified in the “Risk Factors” section of our 2011 Form 10-K. Changes in facts and circumstances may have a significant impact on the resulting financial statements.

Operations and Liquidity Management — As of September 30, 2012, AGY US had total liquidity of $26.4 million, consisting of $0.8 million in unrestricted cash and approximately $25.6 million of borrowing availability under the Senior Secured revolving credit facility, as amended (“Amended Credit Facility”). As further disclosed in Note 8, if our borrowing availability under the Amended Credit Facility falls below $6.25 million, we will be subject to a springing financial maintenance covenant that would likely result in a default under the Amended Credit Facility. The Company intends to manage its liquidity needs through enhancements to the gross margins from production process improvements, enhanced sales of higher margin products and other operations focused efforts.

The AGY Asia reporting segment has experienced declining operating profits, had significant debt service obligations originally due in 2012 that have been recently renegotiated and extended to April 2013, and may require funding for the rebuilding of the furnace, located in Shanghai, PRC. As a result, in April 2012, we retained William Blair & Company, L.L.C. and its pan alliance partner Business Development Asia (HK) Ltd ("Blair" and “BDA” and together the “Advisor”) to provide certain investment banking services to evaluate and assist with a possible combination of AGY Asia with another party, a recapitalization of a significant portion of AGY Asia’s indebtedness or a change of control of AGY Asia in a transaction involving the Bank of Shanghai, which is the primary lender for the Asian operation. In connection with these potential transactions, the Company recently entered into negotiation with bidders and expects to complete a sale transaction. We do not expect any possible transaction to impact the AGY US reporting segment as only approximately 1.3% of the reported revenue for AGY US was derived from products produced by AGY Asia over the last 12 months. Additionally, AGY US expects to maintain its commercial presence and sales channels for glass fibers produced in North America but sold to the Asian market, primarily for specialty electronics applications.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards — Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. We elected to present net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) in two separate but consecutive statements. This is a change in presentation only and the adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards — In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued updated guidance ASU 2012-02, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), on the periodic testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. The updated guidance gives companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived asset is impaired before performing quantitative impairment testing. The updated accounting guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company believes that the adoption of this guidance will have no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2. INVENTORIES, NET

Inventories, net of reserves for excess, obsolete, and write-downs to lower of cost or market adjustments of $2,260 and $2,684 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, consist of the following:

	September 30, 2012		December 31, 2011

3. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT AND ALLOY METALS

Property, plant and equipment and alloy metals consist of the following:

	September 30, 2012			December 31, 2011
Land and land use rights	$	8,402		$	12,456
Buildings and leasehold improvements		31,331			37,725

		208,663			230,485
Less – Accumulated depreciation		(70,749	)		(65,810	)
		137,914			164,675
Construction-in-progress		560			377
	$	138,474		$	165,052

Depreciation expense was $7,661 and $11,373 in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Depletion of alloy metals was $6,108 and $6,531 (net of recoveries and excluding expense to process such recoveries) in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

No alloy metals were sold during the first nine months of 2012 and 2011. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the Company made cashless exchanges of rhodium and platinum and recognized a gain of $272 and $312, respectively, classified as “other operating income”.

During 2011, the Company determined the carrying value of the AGY Asia long-lived assets exceeded the fair value and recognized an impairment of $37,898 at December 31, 2011. As of September 30, 2012, the Company revaluated the recoverability of the AGY Asia long-lived assets based on the progress of the sale process of this operating business unit, the final non-binding offers submitted by potential buyers and the estimated future cash flows expected through the completion of a transaction. The Company determined that the carrying value of the AGY Asia long-lived assets exceeded the fair value and recognized an additional impairment of $13,749 at September 30, 2012. As of September 30, 2012, AGY Asia has remaining long-lived assets with a net carrying value of $34,226.

4. RESTRICTED CASH

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had restricted cash of $2.3 million, including $1.5 million posted as cash collateral in connection with the June 15, 2012 amendment of the AGY US revolving credit facility. The cash collateral secures amounts remaining to be paid under the equipment lease that was financed by the previous revolving lender. The collateral requirement will be reduced by $0.1 million at the end of each quarter beginning December 31, 2012 and ending in October 2015 when all of the scheduled lease payments have been made.

The balance of $0.8 million was posted by AGY Asia as cash collateral to secure 100% of the letters of credit issued under its credit facility in support of trade supplier payments.

5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets subject to amortization and trademarks, which are not amortized, consist of the following:

	September 30, 2012			December 31, 2011			Estimated Useful Lives
Intangible assets subject to amortization:
Customer relationships – U.S.	$	4,800		$	4,800			11 years
Process technology		10,200			10,200			18 years
Deferred financing fees		7,666			6,077			4 to 8 years
Sub-total		22,666			21,077
Less – Accumulated amortization		(10,944	)		(9,505	)
		11,722			11,572
Trademarks – not amortized		5,613			5,613
Net intangible assets	$	17,335		$	17,185

In June 2012, the Company entered into the Amended Credit Facility for AGY US and incurred approximately $1.6 million in debt issuance costs. These costs are treated as additional deferred financing fees amortized by the straight-line method over the remaining life of the Amended Credit Facility, which approximates the effective interest method.

The Company’s process technology consists of several patents that relate to the design, application or manufacturing for key products, and its estimated useful life is based on the average legal life of the patents and the Company’s estimated economic life of the processes.

6. RESTRUCTURING INITIATIVES

AGY US

In the fourth quarter of 2011, we initiated actions in our AGY US segment to improve our cost structure and mitigate the adverse impact of the decline in precious metals markets on our borrowings availability. The approved plan included (a) the severance of 13 salaried positions, and (b) the engagement of a global professional services firm to lead rapid operational improvement opportunities and to provide interim senior management services following the change in our leadership organization. These initiatives continued through the third quarter of 2012. Additionally, the Company initiated a process to sell its CFM business, including the wound products and conductive roving business located in its Huntingdon Pennsylvania facilities, and we expect to incur additional professional advisory services fees throughout 2012. These restructuring initiatives resulted in a restructuring charge of $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2012 and $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The remaining reserve of $3.3 million at September 30, 2012 for the above initiatives is expected to be paid in 2012. The following table summarizes the status of unpaid liabilities from the Company’s restructuring initiatives:

	Employee Related Costs			Professional services			Others			Total
Balance as of December 31, 2011	$	567		$	695		$	—		$	1,262
Restructuring costs incurred		509			6,193			136			6,838

AGY Asia

In the first quarter of 2012, our AGY Asia segment engaged a global professional services firm to lead the refinancing of the AGY Asia financing agreements or a change in control of AGY Asia. This initiative resulted in a restructuring charge of $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2012 and $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The remaining reserve of $0.1 million at September 30, 2012 for the above initiatives is expected to be paid in 2012 and AGY Asia expects to incur additional professional advisory services throughout 2012.

Interest on our Senior Secured Notes due 2014 (the “Notes”) is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year. Our obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a second-priority basis, by each of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries, other than immaterial subsidiaries, that guarantee the indebtedness of the Company, including the Amended Credit Facility, or the indebtedness of any restricted subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the estimated fair value of the Notes was $77,400 and $82,560, respectively, compared to a recorded book value of $172,000 for both periods. The fair value of the Notes is estimated on the basis of quoted market prices; however, trading in these securities is limited and may not reflect fair value. The fair value is subject to fluctuations based on, among other things, the Company's performance, its credit rating and changes in interest rates for debt securities with similar terms.

- 10 -

The indenture governing the Notes contains a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (calculated based on “Consolidated Cash Flow” (as defined therein)), which is used to determine our ability to make restricted payments, incur additional indebtedness, issue preferred stock and enter into mergers or consolidations or sales of substantially all assets. The indenture does not allow us to pay dividends or distributions on our outstanding capital stock (including to our parent) and limits or restricts our ability to incur debt, repurchase securities, make certain prohibited investments, create liens, transfer or sell assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, issue or sell stock of a subsidiary or merge or consolidate. The indenture does not contain any financial maintenance covenants.

Under certain events of default, including defaults under the Amended Credit Facility, payment of the outstanding principal and interest could be accelerated.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On June 15, 2012, the Company entered into the Second Amended Credit Facility that provides for an expanded credit facility of up to $60,000 and matures on the earlier of June 15, 2016 or 90 days prior to the maturity date of the senior secured notes (“Amended Credit Facility”).

Availability under the facility is determined by a borrowing base equal to the sum of: (i) an advance rate against eligible accounts receivable of up to 85%, plus (ii) the lesser of (A) 65% of the book value of eligible inventory (valued at the lower of cost or market) and (B) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value for eligible inventory, plus (iii) up to $40,000 of eligible alloy inventory, plus (iv) subject to the extension, replacement or renewal of on terms and conditions satisfactory to Agent, the lesser of (x) 70% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible equipment plus 50% of the fair market value of eligible real estate, (y) an amount equal to $6 million on the Closing Date and reduced by $375,000 on the day after the last day of each full Fiscal Quarter thereafter and (z) 15% of the Borrowing Base, minus (v) 100% of mark-to-market risk on certain interest hedging arrangements, minus (vi) a reserve of $2.5 million, and minus (vii) other reserves as the lender may determine in its permitted discretion. This amended definition of the borrowing base calculation resulted in lower reserves and higher advance rates on certain of our assets when compared to the definition that was in effect prior to the amendment of the credit facility as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2012.

The interest rate for borrowings is LIBOR plus 4.0% or Base Rate plus 3.0% and may be adjusted downward to LIBOR plus 3.5% or Base Rate plus 2.5%, depending on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. In addition, there are customary commitment and letter of credit fees under the Amended Credit Facility.

All obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are guaranteed by Holdings. The Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are secured, subject to permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions, by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.

Proceeds from the Amended Credit Facility loan were used to repay all amounts and terminate all commitments outstanding under our previous $50,000 Amended Credit Facility and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing.

The Company incurred approximately $1,600 in issuance costs, which will be expensed over the life of the Amended Credit Facility.

The Amended Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and other payments in respect to capital stock, transactions with affiliates, and optional payments and modifications of subordinated and other debt instruments.

In addition, the agreement contains a “springing financial maintenance covenant.” Specifically, if any revolving credit facility commitments are outstanding and after the occurrence of (a) a default or an event of default, or (b) the availability under the facility falling below $6,250, the Company must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0 for each period of four fiscal quarters ended during, or on the last day of, the fiscal quarter immediately before the events listed in (a) and (b) above.

The agreement governing the Amended Credit Facility permits the lenders to accelerate payment of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest and/or to terminate their commitment to lend any additional amounts upon certain events of default, including but not limited to failure to pay principal or interest or other amounts when due, breach of certain covenants or representations including breach of the springing covenant, cross-defaults to certain other agreements and indebtedness in excess of specified amounts, a change of control, or default under our obligation regarding the AGY Asia option exercise.

- 11 -

On July 25, 2012, the Company amended the Amended Credit Facility to, among other things, permit the amendment of the Master Lease Agreement, to require delivery of certain additional reports and to add a minimum Fully Adjusted EBITDA financial covenant, as defined in the Amended Master Lease Agreement, which is measured as of each calendar quarter end based on the last four quarters Fully Adjusted EBITDA (see Note 14).

The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of September 30, 2012.

As of September 30, 2012, our borrowing base, calculated in accordance with the terms of the Amended Credit Facility, was $58,300. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had issued letters of credit totaling approximately $2,700 and had cash borrowings of $30,000 under the facility. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2012 was 4.2%. Borrowing availability after giving effect to the borrowing base at September 30, 2012 was approximately $25,600.

As of December 31, 2011, our borrowing base, calculated in accordance with the terms of the prior Amended Credit Facility, was $40,700. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had issued letters of credit totaling approximately $2,900 and had cash borrowings of $25,000 under the facility. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2011 was 3.4%. Borrowing availability after giving effect to the borrowing base at December 31, 2011 was approximately $12,800.

AGY Asia Credit Facility- Non-recourse

The AGY Asia financing arrangement (“AGY Asia Credit Facility”) consists of a term loan with an original maturity of five years and a one-year working capital loan with original commitments of approximately $43,300 and $12,500, respectively, converted at the then-current exchange rate. Proceeds from the loans were used principally to repay the $37,600 outstanding at the time of the refinancing under AGY Asia’s prior credit agreements.

In April 2012, the remaining unused commitment of approximately $2,500 under the term loan and the working capital loan was terminated by the AGY Asia lender. As a result, there is no remaining availability under the AGY Asia Credit Facility.

Term loan

The term loan is secured by AGY Asia’s building, alloy metals and equipment and bears interest annually at the rate of either the five-year lending rate as published by the People’s Bank of China, plus a margin, or six-month LIBOR plus 3.0%. Term loan borrowings may be made in both local currency and US dollars, up to certain limits. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, AGY Asia had borrowings of approximately $27,400 and $27,600 under the term loan, respectively, consisting of a local currency loan of RMB 148,500, or approximately $23,400 converted at the period-end exchange rate, and a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $4,000. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2012 was 6.3%.

There are semi-annual mandatory payments of principal on the term loan borrowings. At September 30, 2012, the remaining mandatory payments of principal before the agreement reached in October to defer the 2012 scheduled amortization described below, were as follows:

2012	$	10,516
2013		12,539
2014		4,364
	$	27,419

On several occasions in 2012, AGY Asia and its lender amended the term loan amortization to defer the $10.5 million required principal payment originally due in two installments payable in April and October 2012. Following renegotiations, the principal payment will be due in three installments: two down payments of $0.25 million each in October 2012 and January 2013 and the balance of $10.0 million due in April 2013. In addition, the lender has the right to accelerate the loan repayment at any time if the lender deems that no substantial progress on AGY Asia refinancing, recapitalization or change of control is being made. There is no assurance that we will be able to permanently revise the term loan amortization schedule on terms acceptable to us or at all. If AGY Asia is unable to reach agreement with its lender to modify the term loan amortization schedule beyond April 2013, then AGY Asia may default under its loan agreement and the total debt of approximately $26.9 million outstanding after payment of the October 2012 and January 2013 mandatory down payments, may be accelerated. As a result of this uncertainty, all the outstanding borrowings under the term loan were classified as current liabilities as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

- 12 -

Working Capital Loan

The working capital loan facility is secured by existing and future equipment and assets acquired by AGY Asia and bears interest annually at the rate of either the three-year lending rate as published by the People’s Bank of China, or three-month LIBOR plus 3.0%. Working capital loan borrowings may be made in both local currency and US Dollars, up to certain limits.

In October 2012, AGY Asia received an extension of the working capital loan facility to April 2013. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain an extension of the commitment beyond April 2013 on terms acceptable to us or at all.

At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had borrowings of approximately $11,500 outstanding under the working capital loan consisting of (i) a local currency loan of RMB 66,500, or approximately $10,500 converted at the period-end exchange rate, and (ii) a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $1,000. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2012 was 6.5%.

During the second quarter of 2011, AGY Asia entered into a letter of credit (“LC”) discounting arrangement whereby certain trade receivables backed by LCs may be discounted with recourse and borrowed against at a nominal interest cost. At September 30, 2012, AGY Asia had discounted LCs with a face value of approximately $2,224 (which amount is recorded in trade receivables at September 30, 2012), receiving proceeds of approximately $967 and maintaining equity of approximately $1,257 in such receivables. At September 30, 2012, proceeds of $967 received from discounting were recorded as short-term debt payable.

In July 2012, the lender declined extending the letter of credit facility in support of trade supplier payments that was previously in place. AGY Asia is required to provide full guarantee deposits to secure any trade letters of credit and such cash collateral is recorded as restricted cash (Note 4).

The loan agreements contain customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, interest coverage, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and other payments in respect to capital stock, and transactions with affiliates. The loan agreements also include customary events of default, including a default upon a change of control. AGY Asia was in compliance with all such covenants at September 30, 2012.

All amounts borrowed under the AGY Asia Credit Facility are non-recourse to AGY Holding Corp. or any other domestic subsidiary of AGY Holding Corp.

Maturities of Long-Term Debt

As discussed above, we classified all AGY Asia borrowings outstanding under the term loan as current as of September 30, 2012 due to the uncertainty of AGY Asia's ability to make required principal payments and/or to consummate a refinancing, which would create an event of default and activate an acceleration clause. As a result, maturities of long-term debt at September 30, 2012 only relate to AGY US and consist of the following:

	North America		China – Non- recourse		Total
2013	$	—	$	—	$	—
2014	$	202,000	$	—	$	202,000
	$	202,000	$	—	$	202,000

9. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

As discussed in Note 11 of our 2011 Form 10-K, the Company has a management agreement with the principal shareholder of Holdings pursuant to which this party provides management and other advisory services to the Company. This agreement requires AGY to pay an annual management fee of $750 and to reimburse this party for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its services.

- 13 -

10. CAPITAL STOCK AND EQUITY

The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of a total of 1,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. All 100 outstanding shares of the Company have been owned by Holdings since the Acquisition on April 7, 2006. The holder of each share has the right to one vote for each share of common stock held and no shareholder has special voting rights other than those afforded all shareholders generally under Delaware law. Shareholders will share ratably, based on the number of shares held, in any and all dividends the Company may declare. As indicated in Note 8, the payment of dividends is restricted by the Amended Credit Facility and the Notes and no dividends were paid in either the three months ended September 30, 2012 or 2011.

11. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

Pension and Other Post-retirement Benefits

Pension Benefits — As described more fully in our 2011 Form 10-K, we have a reimbursement obligation to Owens Corning (“OC”) under OC’s defined benefit pension plan covering certain of our employees. Our obligation to OC is unfunded. We do not have a defined benefit pension plan.

Other Post-retirement Benefits — We have a post-retirement benefit plan that covers substantially all of our domestic employees. Upon the attainment of age sixty-two and the completion of ten years of continuous service, an employee may elect to retire. Employees eligible to retire may receive limited post-retirement health and life insurance benefits. We also have an unfunded reimbursement obligation to OC for certain of our retirees who retired under OC’s retiree medical plan.

Net periodic benefit costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, are as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended September 30,										For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	Pension Benefits				Post-Retirement Benefits						Pension Benefits				Post-Retirement Benefits
	2012		2011		2012			2011			2012		2011		2012			2011
Service cost	$	—	$	—	$	61		$	72		$	—	$	—	$	181		$	216
Interest cost		25		39		62			109			76		117		186			246
Settlement		31		72		—			—			124		72		—			—
Amortization of unrecognized gains		26		12		(39	)		(71	)		76		36		(116	)		(213	)
Total net periodic benefit cost	$	82	$	123	$	84		$	110		$	276	$	225	$	251		$	249

Expected net employer contributions for the OC defined benefit plan for the year ending December 31, 2012 are $568. Expected net employer contributions for the postretirement benefit plan for the year ending December 31, 2012 are $556.

Defined Contribution Plan

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan that allows qualifying employees to contribute up to 30% of their annual pretax or after-tax compensation subject to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) limitations. AGY may provide a voluntary matching employer contribution of 50% on up to 6% of each participant’s before-tax salary deferral. In addition, AGY may make an employer contribution to the plan based on the Company’s annual financial performance. Effective December 2011 and January 2012, the Company suspended matching contributions for hourly employees at its Aiken SC location and for all salaried employees, and for hourly employees at the Huntingdon PA location, respectively until September 1, 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company contributed $47 and $436, respectively.

- 14 -

12. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Our stock-based compensation includes stock options and restricted stock as described in our 2011 Form 10-K. Total stock-based compensation was $94 and $21 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 10,000 stock options were forfeited and 10,000 stock options were granted with a grant date fair value of $1.53. Assumptions used in the Company's Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the grant date fair value in 2012 were expected volatility of 39.0%, expected dividends of 0%, expected term of 3.7 years and a risk-free interest rate of 0.49%. No additional stock options or restricted stock were exercised, or expired.

The following table summarizes the Company’s activity in stock options:

	Number of options			Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Life (In Years)		Weighted-Average Remaining Exercise Price
Outstanding – January 1, 2012		1,020,000			4.3	$	8.40
Granted		10,000				$	5.13
Exercised		—
Expired or forfeited		(80,000	)
Outstanding – September 30, 2012		950,000			3.5	$	8.51
Exercisable – September 30, 2012		513,333			3.5	$	10.00

At September 30, 2012 the outstanding options had no intrinsic value.

13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company from time to time enters into fixed-price agreements for the natural gas commodity requirements of our AGY US segment to reduce the variability of the cash flows associated with forecasted purchases of natural gas. Although these contracts are considered derivative instruments, they typically meet the normal purchases exclusion contained in ASC 815, and are therefore exempted from the related accounting requirements. At September 30, 2012, the Company had existing contracts for physical delivery of natural gas at its Aiken, SC and Huntingdon, PA facilities that fix the commodity cost of natural gas for approximately 65% and 80%, respectively, of its estimated natural gas purchase requirements in the next three months.

At September 30, 2012, the Company also had existing contracts for physical delivery of electricity at its Huntingdon, PA facility that fix the commodity cost of all of its estimated electricity purchase requirements through December 2013.

The Company also uses, on occasion, foreign currency derivatives to manage the risk associated with fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, the Company had no foreign currency hedging agreements in effect.

- 15 -

14. ALLOY METAL LEASES

The Company leases under short-term operating leases (with lease terms of twelve months or less) a significant portion of the alloy metals needed to support its manufacturing operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, total lease costs of alloy metals were approximately $3,270 and $3,150, respectively, and were classified as a component of cost of goods sold. In July 2012, we entered into an amended and restated master lease agreement (the "Amended Master Lease Agreement") with DB, which extended the maturity date to May 31, 2013 from October 7, 2012. The Amended Master Lease Agreement allows AGY to enter into leases of alloy metals, up to 51,057 ounces of platinum and up to 3,308 ounces of rhodium, with terms of one to twelve months. Lease costs are determined by the quantity of metal leased, multiplied by a benchmark value of the applicable precious metal and a margin above the lease rate index based on DB's daily precious metal rates. The Amended Master Lease Agreement is secured by a security interest in rhodium up to a value that is the lesser of 35% of the leased platinum or $24,400. The Amended Master Lease Agreement is guaranteed by AGY’s domestic subsidiaries and contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment of lease payments, inaccuracy of representations and warranties in any material respect and a cross-default provision with any credit facility or leasing facility greater than $500, including the Amended Credit Facility and the Notes. In addition, the Amended Master Lease Agreement requires us to maintain minimum Fully Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Amended Master Lease Agreement, and which adjusts Adjusted EBITDA primarily for non-cash inventory related adjustments and variable compensation accrual) of not be less than $16.5 million for the 12-month period ending September 30, 2012, $17.25 million for the 12-month period ending September 30, 2012, $17.75 million for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2012 and $18.25 million for the 12-month period ending March 31, 2013. The Company was in compliance with the minimum Fully Adjusted EBITDA covenant as of September 30, 2012.

At September 30, 2012, we leased approximately 49,751 ounces of platinum and 3,285 ounces of rhodium under the Master Lease Agreement, with a notional value of approximately $70,300 and $3,900, respectively. All of the leases outstanding at September 30, 2012 had initial terms of five to ten months, maturing no later than May 31, 2013 (with future minimum rentals of approximately $3,350 until maturity in May 2013).

The Company is currently seeking to extend the lease facility beyond its new maturity date in May 2013, but there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain replacement financing with DB or another lessor on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to refinance the facility by May 31, 2013 in a manner acceptable to our senior secured revolving lenders, this will be an event of default under that agreement and the lenders may accelerate amounts due under that facility, which could then trigger a default under our senior second lien Notes.

15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company utilized the valuation hierarchy provided in ASC 820-10 to determine the fair value of assets measured on a non-recurring basis in periods subsequent to the initial adoption of ASC 820-10:

• Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible.

At September 30, 2012, long-lived assets of AGY Asia were tested for impairment. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $13.7 million based on the estimated fair value derived principally from the final non-binding offers submitted by the potential buyers after their due diligence analysis and the estimated future cash flows expected through the completion of a transaction. Since there were primarily unobservable inputs, management concluded that this was a Level 3 fair value measurement. There were no other assets or liabilities required to be measured at fair value in periods subsequent to their initial recognition.

At December 31, 2011, long-lived assets of AGY Asia were tested for impairment. At that time, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $37.9 million based on the orderly liquidation value in exchange basis of the long-lived assets given the uncertainty for AGY Asia to operate as a going concern beyond 2012. The valuation methodologies used to determine fair value, with the assistance of a third party valuation specialist, were a market approach for those assets where a secondary market exists and a replacement cost approach for the remainder. Since there were primarily unobservable inputs, management concluded that this was a Level 3 fair value measurement.

- 16 -

The fair value of the Notes for AGY US was approximately $77,400 and $82,560 at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The debt fair value estimates are classified under Level 2 because such estimates are based on readily available market prices of our debt at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, or similar debt with the same maturities, rating and interest rates.

16. NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

On June 10, 2009 the Company purchased a 70% controlling interest in AGY Asia. The 30% noncontrolling interest (“NCI”) was recorded at the acquisition date at a fair value of $12,431, which was derived from an option agreement, pursuant to which the Company has the right to purchase the remaining 30% NCI at a stipulated multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization if certain financial performances are achieved. Grace Technology Investment Co., Ltd and Grace THW Holding Limited (together, “Grace”) have the right to put their remaining 30% ownership to the Company after the one-year anniversary of the execution of the AGY Asia Purchase Agreement at a stipulated multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The put option became exercisable upon the first anniversary of the completion date of the AGY Asia acquisition, June 10, 2010, and will expire on December 31, 2013.

The Company assessed the option agreement under the guidance of ASC 815 and ASC 480-10 and determined it was not a freestanding financial instrument but a redeemable equity interest, which is not solely within the control of the Company. Therefore, at the acquisition date, the fair value of the redeemable portion of the NCI was reclassified as temporary, or mezzanine, equity presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet between total liabilities and shareholder’s equity.

At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company recorded the attribution of the NCI net loss and other comprehensive income according to ASC 810-10-65 and performed a subsequent measurement of the probable redemption amount per ASC 480-10-S99. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 the equity instrument is redeemable but its carrying value was nil as of both dates. Therefore, only the redemption amount assessed as of the end of the period is classified in mezzanine equity and any NCI above this amount is presented in permanent equity.

Changes in noncontrolling interest are set forth below:

	Mezzanine Equity			Permanent Equity			Total NCI
Balance as of January 1, 2011	$	3,401		$	9,762		$	13,163
Net loss attributable to NCI – AGY Asia		(12,240	)		—			(12,240	)
Other comprehensive income attributable to NCI – AGY Asia		516			—			516
Adjustment to NCI Redemption amount assessment		8,323			(8,323	)		—
Balance as of December 31, 2011		—			1,439			1,439
Net loss attributable to NCI – AGY Asia		(4,357	)		—			(4,356	)
Other comprehensive loss attributable to NCI – AGY Asia		(76	)		—			(76	)
Adjustment to NCI Redemption amount assessment		4,433			(4,433	)		—
Balance as of September 30, 2012	$	—		$	(2,994	)	$	(2,994	)

17. INCOME TAXES

During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company's effective tax rate was (0.03%) and (0.11%) respectively. This rate varied from the statutory rate of 34% due primarily to increases in the valuation allowance for domestic and foreign deferred tax assets which are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, losses on domestic and foreign subsidiaries with no tax benefit, state taxes and foreign rate differential. Generally, the Company can recognize deferred tax assets for the losses incurred until such time that the aggregate deferred tax assets exceed aggregate deferred tax liabilities that do not relate to assets with an indefinite useful life. The deferred tax liabilities relied upon in the Company's assessment of the realizability of its deferred tax assets will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets.

- 17 -

During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company's effective tax rate was 0.05% and (0.17%) respectively. This rate varied from the statutory rate of 34% due primarily to increases in the valuation allowance for domestic and foreign deferred tax assets which are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, losses on domestic and foreign subsidiaries with no tax benefit, state taxes and foreign rate differential.

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

There may be insignificant levels of asbestos in certain manufacturing facilities, however, the Company does not expect to incur costs (which are undeterminable) in the foreseeable future to remediate any such asbestos. Accordingly, management did not record a conditional asset retirement obligation related to such asbestos remediation because, in accordance with the guidance of ASC 410, the Company does not have sufficient information to estimate the fair value of the asset retirement obligation.

In addition to the alloy metal leases discussed in Note 14, we also lease other equipment and property under operating leases. Total rent expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, was approximately $1,050 and $1,235, respectively.

We are not a party to any significant litigation or claims, other than routine matters incidental to the operation of the Company. We do not expect that the outcome of any pending claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

19. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Since the acquisition of AGY Asia on June 10, 2009, the Company has two reportable segments, each a separate operating segment. The AGY US segment includes the US manufacturing operations and its sales of advanced glass fibers that are used worldwide as reinforcing materials in numerous high-value applications and end-markets through AGY Holding Corp., its wholly-owned domestic and French subsidiaries. The AGY Asia segment includes the manufacturing operations of the Company’s 70% controlling interest in AGY Hong Kong Ltd. and its sales of advanced glass fibers that are used primarily in the Asian electronics markets. The Company’s operating segments are managed separately based on differences in their manufacturing and technology capabilities, products and services and their end-markets as well as their distinct financing agreements. The financial results for our operating segments are prepared using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which we internally segregate financial information for the purpose of making internal operating decisions. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on operating profit. Corporate and certain other expenses are not allocated to the operating segments, except to the extent that the expense can be directly attributable to the operating segment.

ITEM 2. – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements with respect to our operations, industry, financial condition and liquidity. These statements reflect our management’s assessment of a number of risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors identified in this Quarterly Report and in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2011 Form 10-K”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. An additional statement made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and summarizing certain of the principal risks and uncertainties inherent in our business is included herein under the caption “Disclosure Regarding Forward- Looking Statements.” You are encouraged to read this statement carefully.

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes, and with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2011 Form 10-K.

Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “AGY”, the “Company”, “we” and “our” in this report refer to AGY Holding Corp. and its subsidiaries.

GENERAL

We are a leading manufacturer of advanced glass fibers that are used as reinforcing materials in numerous diverse high-value applications, including aircraft laminates, ballistic armor, pressure vessels, roofing membranes, insect screening, architectural fabrics and specialty electronics. We are focused on serving end-markets that require glass fibers for applications with demanding performance criteria, such as the aerospace, defense, construction, electronics, automotive and industrial end-markets.

Since the acquisition of AGY Asia in 2009, the Company has two reportable segments, each a separate operating segment. The AGY US segment includes the U.S. manufacturing operations and its sale of advanced glass fibers that are used worldwide as reinforcing materials in numerous high-value applications and end-markets through AGY Holding Corp. and its wholly-owned domestic and French subsidiaries. The AGY Asia segment includes the manufacturing operations of the Company’s 70% controlling interest in AGY Hong Kong Ltd. and its sale of advanced glass fibers that are used primarily in the Asian electronics markets. The Company’s operating segments are managed separately based on differences in their manufacturing and technology capabilities, products and services and their end-markets as well as their distinct financing agreements. AGY Holding Corp. is a Delaware corporation and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of KAGY Holding Company, Inc. (“Holdings”). Holdings acquired all of our outstanding stock in April 2006 (the “Acquisition”). Our principal executive office is located at 2556 Wagener Road, Aiken, South Carolina 29801 and our telephone number is (888) 434-0945. Our website address is http://www.agy.com.

We believe the AGY US segment is making progress to improve operating efficiency, to expand its product offerings, its markets, and its customer base and to effectively manage its liquidity needs through enhancements to the gross margins and improved management of its working capital requirements.

The AGY Asia reporting segment has experienced declining operating profits, had significant debt service obligations originally due in 2012 that have been recently renegotiated and extended to April 2013, and may require funding for the rebuilding of the furnace, located in the People’s Republic of China. As a result, in April 2012, we retained an Advisor to provide certain investment banking services to evaluate and assist with a possible combination of AGY Asia with another party, a recapitalization of a significant portion of AGY Asia’s indebtedness or a change of control of AGY Asia in a transaction involving the primary lender for the Asian operation. We do not expect any possible transaction resulting from this agreement to impact the AGY US reporting segment as only approximately 1.3% of the reported revenue for AGY US was derived from products produced by AGY Asia over the last 12 months. Additionally, AGY US expects to maintain its commercial presence and sales channels for glass fibers produced in North America but sold to the Asian market, primarily for specialty electronics applications. While we have reported the need to complete a rebuild of the furnace in Asia, we are evaluating alternatives to extend the life of the furnace.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In preparing our financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses included in the financial statements. Estimates are based on historical

experience and other information then currently available, the results of which form the basis of such estimates. While we believe our estimation processes are reasonable, actual results could differ from our estimates. The critical accounting policies that affect the Company’s more complex judgments and estimates are described in our 2011 Form 10-K.

Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. We elected to present net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) in two separate, but consecutive, statements. This is a change in presentation only and the adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(a) We purchase or lease alloy metals that are used in our manufacturing process. During the manufacturing process a small portion of the alloy metal is physically consumed. When the metal is actually consumed we recognize a non-cash charge. This expense is recorded net of the amount of metal that can be recovered after some specific treatment and net of the charges associated with such recovery treatment.

(b) Reflects the non-cash compensation expenses related to awards under Holdings’ 2006 Stock Option Plan and Holdings’ restricted stock granted to certain members of management.

(c) Reflects the elimination of the charge associated with the impairment of AGY Asia long-lived assets, which was recognized in the third quarter of 2012.

(d) Reflects the elimination of the management fee payable to our sponsor, Kohlberg & Company, LLC, pursuant to a management agreement entered into in connection with the Acquisition.

(e) Reflects the elimination of the restructuring charges associated primarily with the engagement of a global professional services firm in 2012 (i) to lead rapid operational improvement opportunities and provide interim senior management services for the AGY US segment and (ii) to lead refinancing, recapitalization discussions with the lenders or change in control for AGY Asia.

(f) Reflects primarily the elimination of the gain recorded versus historical book value on the sale or exchange of some non-operating assets.

EBITDA is generally defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a measure used by management to measure operating performance. EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative (a) to net income as a measure of operating performance or (b) to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow available for management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments, capital expenditures and debt service requirements. Management believes EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends because EBITDA excludes the results of decisions that are outside the control of operating management and can differ significantly from company to company depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. In addition, management believes that EBITDA provides more comparability between our historical results and our recent results that reflect purchase accounting and changes in our capital structure. Management compensates for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations of EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments permitted in calculating covenant compliance and calculated in the same manner as “Consolidated Cash Flow” under the indenture governing our Notes, which is used by management in calculating our fixed charge coverage ratio under the indenture governing our Notes. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2011

Net sales. Net sales decreased $7.1 million, or 15.2%, to $39.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $46.6 million during the comparable quarter of 2011. The $6.9 million, or 17.5% net decrease in sales attributable to AGY US in the third quarter of 2012, compared to the same period of 2011, was primarily due to $10.4 million of lower sales volumes partly offset by $3.5 million of favorable product mix. Aerospace revenues were $10.3 million, or up 8% when compared to the third quarter of 2011, reflecting continued robust demand for both aircraft retrofit and new build activity with an on-going bias toward lighter-weight interior materials. Defense revenues decreased $1.1 million, or 47%, compared to the same period of 2011 as a result of fewer international structural armor programs in 2012. The electronics market revenues decreased $2.3 million to $5.5 million, or 30% compared to the third quarter of 2011, reflecting lower demand and competitive pricing pressure. The industrial market revenues of the U.S. operating segment decreased to $15.4 million, or 21% compared to the third quarter of 2011. The $4.1 million decrease was largely caused by weak market conditions and customer management of inventory levels, which led to the underperformance of several industrial applications, including fire retardant mattresses and Continuous Filament Mat (“CFM”) applications. AGY Asia’s contribution to consolidated net sales was $6.9 million, or $0.15 million lower than the third quarter of 2011 level due to a softer Asian electronic market in 2012.

Gross profit. Consolidated gross profit was $5.5 million, or 13.8% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $2.3 million, or 4.9% during the comparable quarter of 2011. Gross profit for AGY US increased $2.5 million during the third quarter of 2012. This increase reflects $0.9 million lower manufacturing cash costs in 2012 from the execution of operational improvement projects and cost control initiatives in a stable manufacturing environment. Additionally, the AGY US segment results were positively impacted in 2012 by decreases of $3.2 million in non-cash costs due primarily to (i) $1.2 million of lower metal operating losses resulting primarily from higher 2012 metal recoveries, (ii) $1.8 million decrease in cost of goods sold related to direct costs absorption due primarily to efficiencies in manufacturing processes in the second and third quarters of 2012 as compared to the same periods in 2011, and (iii) $0.2 million lower depreciation expense. These gains were offset by $1.6 million of lower margin attributable to sales resulting from lower volumes only partly offset by a more favorable product mix. AGY Asia segment gross profit increased $0.7 million as inflation in labor and energy costs was more than offset by $1.1 million of lower depreciation expense and alloy metal depletion. The decrease in depreciation and alloy metal resulted from the impairment of AGY Asia long-lived assets, which was recorded as of December 31, 2011.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 10%, to $3.9 million during the third quarter of 2012 compared to $4.3 million during the third quarter of 2011. This reflects a $0.4 million decrease of SG&A for AGY US as the benefit of

- 32 -

reduced headcount and lower recruiting and relocation expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2012 when compared to the same period of 2011. AGY Asia SG&A remained flat at $0.7 million for the third quarter of 2012 and 2011. SG&A expenses increased from 9.2% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to 9.8% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Restructuring charges. In the three months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded $2.3 million in restructuring charges, of which (i) $1.9 million resulted from the actions we initiated in our AGY US segment during the last nine months to improve our cost structure and liquidity position, and (ii) $0.4 million were primarily in conjunction with the engagement of advisors in 2012 to assist with a possible combination of AGY Asia with another party. For both business segments, the restructuring charges related primarily to professional fees.

Long-lived assets impairment charges. Various factors in the AGY Asia reporting segment including (a) continued lower than expected profitability and cash flows, (b) pending debt service requirements and (c) expected future cash flows derived from the non-binding offers received in connection with the contemplated change of control transaction, triggered management to evaluate the potential impairment of the long-lived assets of this reporting segment at September 30, 2012. As a result, the Company concluded that the long-lived assets were impaired and recorded an impairment charge of $13.7 million, classified in “loss from operations” in 2012. See further disclosures in Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements in Item 1.

Other operating income. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, other operating income of $0.3 million consisted of gains recorded versus historical book value on the cashless exchange of some alloy metals.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased $0.1 million from $6.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to higher borrowing costs for AGY US in the third quarter of 2012 compared to 2011.

Income tax expense. Income tax expense was not significant for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 due to the limitation on recording tax benefits from net operating losses. The effective tax rate was (0.03%) and 0.05% for the third quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively. For both periods, this rate varied from the statutory rate of 34% due primarily to change of valuation allowances for domestic and foreign deferred tax assets, which are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, losses on domestic and foreign subsidiaries with no tax benefit, state taxes and foreign rate differential. Generally, the Company can recognize deferred tax assets for the losses incurred until such time that the aggregate deferred tax assets exceed aggregate deferred tax liabilities that do not relate to assets with an indefinite useful life. The deferred tax liabilities relied upon in the Company's assessment of the realizability of its deferred tax assets will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets.

Net loss. As a result of the aforementioned factors including lower margin attributable to sales resulting from lower volume sold, $2.3 million of restructuring costs which offset improved AGY US operating performances, and a $13.7 million impairment charge on AGY Asia long-lived assets before noncontrolling interest, we reported a net loss attributable to AGY Holding Corp. of $16.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a net loss of $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The net result attributable to the 30% noncontrolling interest in AGY Asia not owned by AGY Holding Corp. was a $4.3 million loss for the third quarter of 2012, principally as a result of the long-lived assets impairment charge compared to a $0.3 million loss for the third quarter of 2011.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

Net sales. Net sales decreased $8.4 million, or 5.9%, to $133.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $141.5 million during the comparable three quarters of 2011. The $7.7 million, or 6.4% net decrease in sales attributable to AGY US for the nine months ended September of 2012, compared to the same period of 2011, was primarily due to $13.9 million of lower sales volumes partly offset by $6.2 million of favorable product mix. Aerospace revenues were $32.6 million, or up 11% when compared to the first nine months of 2011, reflecting continued robust demand for both aircraft retrofit and new build activity with an on-going bias toward lighter-weight interior materials. Defense revenues were $7.0 million, or down 10%, compared to the same period of 2011 as a result of fewer international structural armor programs in 2012. The electronics market revenues decreased $6.8 million to $18.8 million, or 27% compared to the first nine months of 2011, reflecting lower demand, competitive pressures and the second quarter of 2011 benefit from filling at a price premium product shortages in the Asia market place after the 2011 natural disaster in Japan. The industrial market revenues of the U.S. operating segment decreased to $53.7 million, or 6% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease reflects $1.5 million, $1.2 million and $0.8 million lower

- 33 -

construction, automotive and other miscellaneous industrial revenues, respectively, driven by product rationalization, mix enrichment actions and customer management of inventory levels, which started during the third quarter of 2012 due to a weak economic environment. AGY Asia’s contribution to consolidated net sales was $21.0 million, or a $0.8 million decrease in revenues compared to the first nine months of 2011 (after accounting for the elimination of $0.5 and $0.9 million of intercompany sales in 2012 and 2011, respectively) due primarily to pricing pressure in the Asian electronics market.

Gross profit. Consolidated gross profit was $18.6 million, or 13.9% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a $9.1 million, or 6.4% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Gross profit for AGY US increased $7.4 million during the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same period of 2011, reflecting a net $0.1 million of increased margin from sales as a more favorable product mix offset the negative impact from lower volumes. Additionally, the AGY US segment results were positively impacted in 2012 by $5.6 million of lower manufacturing cash costs from the execution of operational improvement projects and cost control initiatives in a stable manufacturing environment. The AGY US profitability also benefited from decreases of $1.7 million in non-cash costs due primarily to (i) $0.3 million of lower metal operating losses, (ii) $0.8 million decrease of cost of goods sold with higher margins due primarily to standard costs revaluations occurring during the first quarter of 2012, and (iii) $0.6 million lower depreciation expense. AGY Asia segment gross profit increased $2.1 million as inflation in labor and energy costs was more than offset by $3.2 million of lower depreciation expense and alloy metal depletion. The decrease in depreciation and alloy metal resulted from the impairment of AGY Asia long-lived assets, which was recorded as of December 31, 2011.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A expenses were flat at $12.0 million during the first nine months of 2012 and 2011. This primarily reflects a $0.2 million decrease of SG&A for AGY US resulting from the benefit of reduced headcount and overhead spending partly offset by a $0.6 million variable compensation accrual recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 when compared to the same period of 2011. The $0.2 million increase in AGY Asia SG&A related primarily to higher labor costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 8.5% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to 9.0% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Restructuring charges. In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded $8.0 million in restructuring charges, of which (i) $6.8 million resulted from the actions we initiated in our AGY US segment during the last nine months to improve our cost structure and liquidity position, and (ii) $1.2 million were primarily in conjunction with the engagement of advisors in 2012 to assist with the refinancing or a possible combination of AGY Asia with another party. For both business segments, the restructuring charges related primarily to professional fees.

Long-lived assets impairment charges. Various factors in the AGY Asia reporting segment including (a) continued lower than expected profitability and cash flows, (b) pending debt service requirements and (c) expected future cash flows derived from the non-binding offers received in connection with the contemplated change of control transaction, triggered management to evaluate the potential impairment of the long-lived assets of this reporting segment at September 30, 2012. As a result, the Company concluded that the long-lived assets were impaired and recorded an impairment charge of $13.7 million, classified in “loss from operations” in 2012. See further disclosures in Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements in Item 1.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased $0.3 million from $17.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $17.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to higher borrowing costs for AGY US in the first nine months of 2012 compared to 2011.

Income tax expense. Income tax expense was not significant for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 due to the limitation on recording tax benefits from net operating losses. The effective tax rate was (0.11%) and (0.17%) for the first nine months of 2012 and 2011, respectively. For both periods, this rate varied from the statutory rate of 34% due primarily to change of valuation allowance for domestic and foreign deferred tax assets, which are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, losses on domestic and foreign subsidiaries with no tax benefit, state taxes and foreign rate differential. Generally, the Company can recognize deferred tax assets for the losses incurred until such time that the aggregate deferred tax assets exceed aggregate deferred tax liabilities that do not relate to assets with an indefinite useful life. The deferred tax liabilities relied upon in the Company's assessment of the realizability of its deferred tax assets will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets.

Net loss. As a result of the aforementioned factors including $8.0 million of restructuring costs which offset improved AGY US operating performances, and a $13.7 million impairment charge on AGY Asia long-lived assets before noncontrolling interest, we reported a net loss attributable to AGY Holding Corp. of $29.3 million

- 34 -

for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a net loss of $20.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The net result attributable to the 30% noncontrolling interest in AGY Asia not owned by AGY Holding Corp. was a $4.4 million loss and a $0.5 million loss for the first nine months of 2012 and 2011, respectively.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND OTHER RELATED MATTERS

AGY Holding Corp. and its Domestic Subsidiaries’ Liquidity

In the first nine months of 2012 our principal sources of domestic liquidity were cash on hand, cash from operations and borrowings from our revolving credit facility. Our domestic need for liquidity arises primarily from interest payments on the outstanding $172.0 million principal amount of our Notes, interest and principal payments on our Amended Credit Facility, the funding of capital expenditures, alloy metals, strategic initiatives, restructuring expenses, normal recurring operating expenses and working capital requirements. At September 30, 2012, AGY US had total liquidity of $26.4 million, consisting of $0.8 million in unrestricted cash and approximately $25.6 million of borrowing availability under the Amended Credit Facility. If our borrowing availability under the Amended Credit Facility falls below $6.25 million, we will be subject to a springing financial maintenance covenant under which we would likely be in default. In the next 12 months, interest payments of approximately $19.0 million will be due under AGY’s Senior Second Lien Notes. In the event we are not able to meet those payments, we will seek one or more options to strengthen our liquidity, including a sale of assets or other financing arrangements. Please refer to 2011 Form 10-K “Risk Factors – Risks Related to our Indebtedness” for additional discussion regarding our liquidity.

There are no mandatory payments of principal on the Amended Credit Facility or on the Notes scheduled prior to their earliest maturity in August 2014 and November 2014, respectively.

AGY Asia’s Liquidity

AGY Asia’s cash requirements stem primarily from interest and principal payments, capital expenditures, alloy metals, strategic initiatives, normal recurring operating expenses and working capital requirements and have been funded by cash on hand, cash from operations and borrowings under the AGY Asia Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2012, AGY Asia had total liquidity of $3.8 million, consisting of unrestricted cash. In April 2012, the remaining unused commitment of approximately $2.5 million under the term loan and the working capital loan was terminated by the AGY Asia lender. As a result, there are no amounts available to be borrowed under the AGY Asia Credit Facility. In 2012, AGY Asia may require funding for rebuilding of its furnace. In addition, semi-annual mandatory principal repayments totaling $10.5 million were originally due under the AGY Asia Credit Facility. On several occasions in 2012, AGY Asia and its lender amended the term loan amortization to defer the April and October 2012 required principal payments totaling $10.5 million. Following renegotiations, the principal payment will be due in three installments: two down payments of $0.25 million each in October 2012 and January 2013 and the balance of $10.0 million due in April 2013. However, the lender retains the right to accelerate the loan repayment at any time if the lender deems that no substantial progress on AGY Asia refinancing, recapitalization or change of control is being made. We may be unable to make the principal payments without one or more of the following occurrences: a refinancing of our AGY Asia Credit Facility, an amendment to our AGY Asia Credit Facility, a sale of assets or other financing arrangements.

In October 2012, AGY Asia’s lender extended the maturity of the working capital loan facility to April 2013. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain an extension of the commitment beyond April 2013 on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Please refer to 2011 Form 10-K “Risk Factors – Risks Related to our Indebtedness” for additional discussion regarding the liquidity of AGY Asia.

Working capital

The Company has historically defined working capital as total current assets, excluding unrestricted cash, less total current liabilities, including short-term borrowings and the current portion of long-term debt. We reported negative working capital of $20.5 million and $13.3 million on September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The $7.2 million decrease related to (a) a $8.6 million increase in AGY US accrued liabilities due primarily to the interest accrual for our Notes and the increase of accrued restructuring expenses, (b) a $0.8 million decrease in current deferred tax, and (c) a $0.5 million decrease in the working capital of AGY Asia, offset by (d) a $0.6 million decrease in AGY US trade payables, and (e) increases of $0.6 million, $0.8 million and $0.7 million increase in AGY US inventories, trade receivables and other current assets, respectively.

Other balance sheet items

Net Property, Plant and Equipment and Alloy Metals. Net property, plant and equipment and alloy metals decreased $26.6 million from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012, primarily due to $13.7 million of AGY Asia long-lived assets impairment charge and $13.8 million of depreciation and alloy metals depletion expenses. We expended $1.3 million for capital projects primarily in AGY US, including accrued construction in progress. Additionally AGY Asia had $0.3 million of negative currency translation adjustments.

Long Term Debt. Long-term debt increased $5.0 million from December 31, 2011 to September 30, 2012 as a result of higher borrowings under our US Amended Credit Facility due primarily to $3.1 million in debt issuance costs and in restricted cash to provide collateral support for equipment leases in conjunction with the recent amendment of the Amended Credit Facility, $1.3 million of capital expenditures, $0.3 million of operating cash outflow and $0.3 million increase in book cash.

Nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2011

Cash flows from operating activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $0.4 million used during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The $3.3 million increase in cash provided by operating activities is attributed to a global $7.5 million decrease in operating working capital during the first nine months of 2012 as compared to a $1.8 million decrease during the first nine months of 2011. This increase in cash provided by working capital components was offset in part by a $4.6 million loss (as adjusted for non-cash items) recognized during the period compared to a $2.2 million loss (as adjusted for non- cash items) recognized during the comparable period of 2011.

Cash flow from investing activities

Cash used by investing activities was $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The $1.2 million decrease in cash used by investing activities was primarily due by a decrease in capital spending of our AGY US and AGY Asia segment, partly offset by a $1.5 million and $0.8 million increase in AGY US and AGY Asia restricted cash, respectively to provide collateral support for equipment leases in conjunction with the recent amendment of the AGY US Amended Credit Facility and for letters of credit issued by AGY Asia in support of trade supplier payments.

Cash flow from financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities was $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $8.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The $5.6 million change was primarily attributable to (i) a $5.1 million decrease in cash provided by revolver loans to AGY US, and (ii) $1.6 million of debt issuance costs incurred by AGY US in the first nine months of 2012 compared to $1.0 million in the first half of 2011 related to our Amended Credit Facility.

Indebtedness

AGY US

On June 15, 2012, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility that provides for an expanded credit facility of up to $60 million and matures on the earlier of June 15, 2016 or 90 days prior to the maturity date of the senior secured notes (“Amended Credit Facility”).

Availability under the facility is determined by a borrowing base equal to the sum of: (i) an advance rate against eligible accounts receivable of up to 85%, plus (ii) the lesser of (A) 65% of the book value of eligible inventory (valued at the lower of cost or market) and (B) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value for eligible inventory, plus (iii) up to $40 million of eligible alloy inventory, plus (iv) subject to the extension, replacement or renewal of the DB Lease Agreement on terms and conditions satisfactory to Agent, the lesser of (x) 70% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible equipment plus 50% of the fair market value of eligible real estate, (y) an amount equal to $6 million on the Closing Date and reduced by $375,000 on the day after the last day of each full Fiscal Quarter thereafter and (z) 15% of the Borrowing Base (which amount was not included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base until July 25, 2012, when the Master Lease Agreement was amended), minus (v) 100% of mark-to-market risk on certain interest hedging arrangements, minus (vi) a reserve of $2.5 million, and minus (vii) other reserves as the lender may determine in its permitted discretion. This amended definition of the borrowing base calculation resulted in lower reserves and higher advance rates on certain of our assets when compared to the definition that was in effect prior to the amendment of the credit facility as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2012.

The interest rate for borrowings is LIBOR plus 4.0% or Base Rate plus 3.0% and may be adjusted downward to LIBOR plus 3.5% or Base Rate plus 2.5%, depending on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. In addition, there are customary commitment and letter of credit fees under the Amended Credit Facility.

All obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are guaranteed by Holdings. The Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are secured, subject to permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions, by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.

Proceeds from the Amended Credit Facility loan were used to repay all amounts and terminate all commitments outstanding under our previous $50 million Amended Credit Facility and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the refinancing.

The Company incurred approximately $1,600 in issuance costs, which will be expensed over the life of the Amended Credit Facility.

The Amended Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and other payments in respect to capital stock, transactions with affiliates, and optional payments and modifications of subordinated and other debt instruments.

In addition, the agreement contains a “springing financial maintenance covenant.” Specifically, if any revolving credit facility commitments are outstanding and after the occurrence of (a) a default or an event of default, or (b) the availability under the facility falling below $6.25 million, the Company must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0 for each period of four fiscal quarters ended during, or on the last day of, the fiscal quarter immediately before the events listed in (a) and (b) above.

The agreement governing the Amended Credit Facility permits the lenders to accelerate payment of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest and/or to terminate their commitment to lend any additional amounts upon certain events of default, including but not limited to failure to pay principal or interest or other amounts when due, breach of certain covenants or representations including breach of the springing covenant, cross-defaults to certain other agreements and indebtedness in excess of specified amounts, a change of control, or default under our obligation regarding the AGY Asia option exercise. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of September 30, 2012.

On July 25, 2012, the Company amended the Amended Credit Facility to, among other things, permit the amendment of the Master Lease Agreement, to require delivery of certain additional reports and to add a minimum Fully Adjusted EBITDA financial covenant, as defined in the Amended Master Lease Agreement, which is measured as of each calendar quarter end based on the last four quarters Fully Adjusted EBITDA. The Company was in compliance with such covenant as of September 30, 2012.

- 37 -

As of September 30, 2012 our borrowing base, calculated in accordance with the terms of the Amended Credit Facility, was $58.3 million. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had issued letters of credit totaling approximately $2.7 million and had cash borrowings of $30.0 million under the facility. Borrowing availability after giving effect to the borrowing base at September 30, 2012 was approximately $25.6 million.

In connection with our refinancing on October 25, 2006, we issued $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11% senior second lien notes (“Old Notes”) to an initial purchaser, which were subsequently resold to qualified institutional buyers and non-U.S. persons in reliance upon Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We consummated an exchange offer of the Old Notes in June 2008 for the Notes. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year. Our obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a second-priority basis, by each of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries, other than immaterial subsidiaries, that guarantee our indebtedness, including our Amended Credit Facility, or the indebtedness of any our restricted subsidiaries. The indenture does not allow us to pay dividends or distributions on our outstanding capital stock (including to our parent) and limits or restricts our ability to incur additional debt, repurchase securities, make certain prohibited investments, create liens, transfer or sell assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, issue or sell stock of a subsidiary or merge or consolidate. The indenture permits the trustee or the holders of 25% or more of the Notes to accelerate payment of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest upon certain events of default, including failure to make required payments of principal and interest when due, uncured violations of the material covenants under the indenture or if lenders accelerate payment of the outstanding principal and accrued unpaid interest due to an event of default with respect to at least $15.0 million of our other debt, such as our Credit Facility.

The indenture does not contain any financial maintenance covenants.

In February 2009, we repurchased $3.0 million face amount of Notes for $1.8 million plus accrued interest and commission, resulting in a net gain on extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.1 million (net of deferred financing fees written off), classified as “other non-operating income”.

As of September 30, 2012, the estimated fair value of the Notes was $77.4 million compared to a recorded book value of $172 million.

AGY Asia

The AGY Asia financing arrangement (“AGY Asia Credit Facility”) consists of a term loan with an original maturity of five years and a one-year working capital loan with original commitments of approximately $43.3 million and $12.5 million, respectively, converted at the then-current exchange rate. Proceeds from the loans were used principally to repay the $37.6 million outstanding at the time of the refinancing under AGY Asia’s prior credit agreements.

In April 2012, the remaining unused commitment of approximately $2.5 million under the term loan and the working capital loan was terminated by the AGY Asia lender. As a result, there is no remaining availability under the AGY Asia credit facility.

The term loan is secured by AGY Asia’s building, alloy metals and equipment and bears interest annually at the rate of either the five-year lending rate as published by the People’s Bank of China, plus a margin, or six-month LIBOR plus 3.0%. Term loan borrowings may be made in both local currency and US dollars, up to certain limits. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, AGY Asia had borrowings of approximately $27.4 million under the term loan, consisting of a local currency loan of RMB 148.5 million, or approximately $23.4 million converted at the period-end exchange rate, and a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $4 million. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2012, was 6.3%.

The working capital loan facility is secured by existing and future equipment and assets acquired by AGY Asia and bears interest annually at the rate of either the three-year lending rate as published by the People’s Bank of China, or three-month LIBOR plus 3.0%. Working capital loan borrowings may be made in both local currency and US Dollars, up to certain limits.

At September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $11.5 million of borrowings outstanding under the working capital loan consisting of a local currency loan of RMB 66.5 million, or approximately $10.5 million, converted at the period-end exchange rate, and a US-dollar-denominated loan of $1.0 million. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2012, was 6.5%.

- 38 -

In July 2012, the lender declined extending the letter of credit facility for trade supplier payments that was previously in place. AGY Asia is required to provide full guarantee deposit to secure any trade letters of credit and such cash collateral is recorded as restricted cash.

During the second quarter of 2011, AGY Asia entered into a letter of credit (“LC”) discounting arrangement whereby certain trade receivables backed by LCs may be discounted with recourse and borrowed against at a nominal interest cost. At September 30, 2012, AGY Asia had discounted LCs with a face value of approximately $2.2 million (which amount is recorded in trade receivables at September 30, 2012), receiving proceeds of $1.0 million and maintaining equity of $1.3 million. At September 30, 2012, proceeds of $1.0 million received from discounting were recorded as short-term debt payable.

The loan agreements contain customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, interest coverage, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and other payments in respect to capital stock, and transactions with affiliates. The loan agreements also include customary events of default, including a default upon a change of control. AGY Asia was in compliance with all such covenants at September 30, 2012.

All amounts borrowed under the AGY Asia Credit Facility are non-recourse to AGY Holding Corp. or any other domestic subsidiary of AGY Holding Corp.

OTHER FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS

We lease under short-term operating leases a significant portion of the alloy needed to support our manufacturing operations. At September 30, 2012, we leased in our AGY US segment approximately 49,800 ounces of platinum and 3,300 ounces of rhodium under the Master Lease Agreement, with a notional value of approximately $70.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, total lease costs of alloy metals were approximately $3.3 million, and were classified as a component of cost of goods sold. Our lease expense is dependent on several factors, including the amount of alloy leased, market spot rates for the alloy and associated lease rates. Market spot rates are subject to daily fluctuation and this fluctuation could result in material changes to our alloy lease expense. All of the leases outstanding at September 30, 2012 had initial terms of five to ten months, maturing no later than May 2013 (with future minimum rentals of approximately $3.3 million until maturity in May 2013).

We also have various operating leases for certain manufacturing equipment, personal and real property.

As discussed in Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2011 Form 10-K, in connection with the purchase of AGY Asia, we entered into an option agreement with Grace pursuant to which Grace granted AGY a call option and AGY granted Grace a put option in respect of the 30% interest held by Grace in AGY Asia, in each case until December 31, 2013, unless mutually extended. The option price is determined by a formula outlined in the agreement. The exercise of the call option requires certain minimum financial performance levels to be reached by AGY Asia and the put option became exercisable in June 2010. As of September 30, 2012 the redemption amount of the put option was nil compared to an initial carrying value of $12.4 million.

We are not a party to any significant litigation or claims, other than routine matters incidental to the operation of the Company. We do not expect that the outcome of any pending claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations includes "forward-looking statements." All statements included herein, other than statements of historical fact, may constitute forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements include, among others, the following factors: competition from other suppliers of glass fibers, as well as suppliers of competing products; the cyclical nature of certain of the end-markets for our products; adverse macroeconomic and business conditions, continued disruption in credit markets and government policy generally leading to global market downturn; an inability to develop product innovations and improve our production technology and expertise; the loss of a large customer or end-user application; a decision by an end-user to modify or discontinue production of an end-product that has specified the use of our product; an inability to protect our intellectual property rights; liability for damages based on product liability claims; increases in energy costs and other raw materials; fluctuation in the market price of alloy metals, which could reduce our AGY US borrowing base and subsequently impair its liquidity, or could increase the cost of

- 39 -

acquiring or leasing alloy metals required for the production of glass fibers; labor disputes or increases in labor costs; difficulties and delays in manufacturing; a reliance on Owens Corning for some of our bushing fabrication; an inability to successfully implement our cost reduction initiatives relating to efficiency, throughput and process technology developments; our inability to refinance AGY US alloy metals lease facility; our inability to service our AGY Asia mandatory term loan payments, to refinance the working loan, and/or to fund the rebuilding of the furnace located in PRC; an inability to successfully integrate future acquisitions including AGY Asia; our inability to successfully implement our cost reduction initiatives; interest rate and foreign exchange rate fluctuations; business risks associated with doing business internationally; the loss of key members of our management; an inability or failure to comply with environmental, health or safety laws and regulations; our limited history of profitable operations since our emergence from Chapter 11 protection on April 2, 2004; our substantial indebtedness; and certain covenants in our debt documents, including a minimum EBITDA covenant and the triggering of a springing covenant if our AGY US borrowing capacity declines below $6.25 million, which would require a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio that we would not currently satisfy and would result in an event of default under our AGY US Credit Facility.

We do not have any intention or obligation to update forward-looking statements included in this management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 3. – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

INTEREST RATE RISK

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with our short- and long-term debt. Our principal interest rate exposures relate to the AGY US $60 million Amended Credit Facility and our AGY Asia Credit Facility. Assuming the AGY US Amended Credit Facility is fully drawn, each 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in approximately a $0.6 million change in annual interest expense on our revolving credit facility. For amounts borrowed under AGY Asia Credit Facility, each 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in approximately a $0.4 million change in annual interest expense for AGY Asia.

NATURAL GAS COMMODITY RISK AND PLATINUM/RHODIUM RISK

Due to the nature of our manufacturing operations, we are exposed to risks due to changes in natural gas and electricity commodity prices. We may utilize derivative financial instruments in order to reduce some of the variability of the cash flows associated with our forecasted purchases of natural gas. At September 30, 2012, we had existing contracts for physical delivery of natural gas at our Aiken, SC and Huntingdon, PA facilities that fix the commodity cost of natural gas for approximately 65% and 80%, respectively, of our estimated natural gas purchase requirements in the next three months. We also had existing contracts for physical delivery of electricity at our Huntingdon, PA facility that fix the commodity cost of all of our estimated electricity purchase requirements through December 2013. Although these contracts are considered derivative instruments, they meet the normal purchases exclusion contained in ASC 815, and are, therefore, exempted from the related accounting requirements.

In addition, because we use bushings made with a platinum-rhodium alloy as part of our manufacturing process, we are exposed to risks due to changes in the prices and lease rates of these metals. AGY US’s borrowing capacity is also directly tied, in part, to fluctuations in the market price of alloy metals, particularly platinum and rhodium, for the metals we own and that secure the Amended Credit Facility. At September 30, 2012, the market price per ounce of Platinum and Rhodium was $1,660 and $1,100, respectively. For every $100 reduction in the market price per ounce of Platinum and Rhodium, our ability to borrow under the Amended credit Facility would be reduced by approximately $1.9 million.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK

We are subject to inherent risks attributed to operating in a global economy. For AGY US, all of our debt and most of our costs are denominated in US dollars. Approximately 2% percent of our sales are denominated in currencies other than the US dollar. Although our level of foreign currency exposure is limited, we may utilize derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risks.

Approximately 15% of the debt of our subsidiary, AGY Asia, is denominated in U.S. dollars, with the balance denominated in Chinese RMB. In addition, approximately 60% of the sales of AGY Asia are denominated in U.S. dollars, while approximately 80% of its costs are denominated in Chinese RMB.

At September 30, 2012, we had no foreign currency hedging agreements in effect.

- 40 -

We may be exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other parties to the derivative financial instruments. We mitigate this risk by entering into agreements directly with counterparties that meet our credit standards and that we expect to fully satisfy their contractual obligations. We view derivative financial instruments purely as a risk management tool and, therefore, do not use them for speculative trading purposes.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND ECONOMIC TRENDS

Historically, inflation has not had a material effect on our results of operations, as we have been able to offset most of the impact of inflation through price increases for our products. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to offset any future price increases in energy, commodities and precious metals through price increases to our customers.

ITEM 4. – Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have conducted an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and the Company’s Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company’s management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded no such changes during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

Other than described below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which should be read together with the other risk factors and information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other reports filed with the SEC.

The following disclosure supplements the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 under the heading “Risks Related to Our Business”:

We may not be able to satisfy the new financial covenants contained in the Amended Credit Facility and Amended Master Lease Agreement, which would result in default under these agreements and may result in default under our other loan agreements, which would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

The amendments to the Amended Credit Facility and to the Master Lease Agreement signed in July 2012 added a minimum Fully Adjusted EBITDA financial covenant for AGY US, which is required to be tested on a quarterly basis. The Company was in compliance with the minimum Fully Adjusted EBITDA covenant as of September 30, 2012. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to satisfy this financial covenant in the future, which would result in an event of default under these two agreements. Any acceleration action taken by our lenders as a result of this or any other event of default could result in cross-acceleration default triggers under the Notes, ultimately causing the Notes, Amended Credit Facility and Amended Master Lease Agreement to immediately become due and payable. If the acceleration of any of the Amended Credit Facility, Notes, or the Amended Master Lease Agreement were to occur, we would not be able to repay such amounts when due, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity and financial condition, and there is no assurance that we would be able to obtain replacement financing on terms acceptable to us or at all.
