TimkenSteel Announces Second-Quarter 2020 Results

CANTON, Ohio: August 6, 2020 - TimkenSteel (NYSE: TMST), a leader in customized alloy steel products and services, today reported second-quarter 2020 net sales of $154.0 million and a net loss of $15.3 million. In the same quarter last year, net sales were $336.7 million with net loss of $11.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ for the second quarter of 2020 was $5.7 million compared with adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $16.9 million in the same quarter last year. The positive adjusted EBITDA in second-quarter 2020 was achieved through aggressive cost reduction actions to help offset significantly weaker demand.  

“Thanks to the exceptional efforts of the TimkenSteel team, I am encouraged that we were able to safely deliver positive EBITDA and cash flow for the quarter despite historic weak demand. We continue to prioritize the health and safety of our employees while focusing on the needs of our customers as we all navigate to a new normal,” said Terry L. Dunlap, interim chief executive officer and president. “The organization continued to execute the profitability improvement and cash generation initiatives deployed earlier in the year while rapidly implementing a host of additional cost reduction actions as the impacts of COVID-19 became clear. We remain focused on taking actions to improve our profitability and generate positive free cash flow while effectively serving our customers. At the end of the second quarter, our cash balance remained at a high level, and we have ample liquidity to meet the current needs of our business.”

SECOND QUARTER OF 2020 FINANCIAL SUMMARY

• Net sales of $154.0 million decreased 54 percent and 41 percent compared with the prior-year and sequential quarters, respectively. The decline in sales was primarily a result of the dramatic reduction in market demand stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the decline in sales compared with the prior-year quarter was impacted by a 29 percent decrease in our average raw material surcharge per ton as a result of lower scrap and alloy prices.

• Ship tons of 108,700 declined 56 percent from the prior-year second quarter as a result of lower demand across all end markets, especially in automotive markets, which experienced significant COVID-19-related production disruptions during the quarter.

• Manufacturing costs were favorable compared with the prior-year and sequential quarter primarily from significant cost reduction actions, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of weak demand on production levels and fixed cost leverage.

• SG&A expense of $16.8 million was $3.4 million lower than the prior-year second quarter and $6.6 million lower sequentially primarily driven by reduced employee costs as a result of the company’s restructuring and     COVID-19-related cost reduction actions.

COVID-19 UPDATE

Throughout the COVID-19 crisis, TimkenSteel employees have worked together to maintain a safe operating environment while continuing to effectively service customers. Employees have strictly followed guidelines set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, U.S. Department of Labor and Ohio Department of Health, and the company’s COVID-19 task force has worked closely with local health departments where the company operates.

To help offset the economic uncertainty and expected decline in demand, the company implemented aggressive actions to reduce operating expenses, conserve cash and maximize liquidity. In the second quarter, the company’s

COVID-19-related actions saved approximately $7 million in cash and reduced administrative expenses by approximately $5 million.

⁽¹⁾ Please see discussion of non-GAAP financial measures in this news release.

Exhibit 99.1

CASH AND LIQUIDITY

Operating cash flow was $16.1 million for the second quarter of 2020, benefiting from cost reduction actions and a number of systemic managed working capital efficiency initiatives. Year-to-date, the company generated nearly $80 million in cash from operating activities. This level of cash generation, in a challenging demand environment, enabled the company to maintain a higher-than-historical level of cash and cash equivalents of $75.5 million as of June 30, 2020 with no additional borrowings on its credit facility during the second quarter. Total available liquidity (available borrowing capacity plus cash and cash equivalents) was $251.9 million at June 30, 2020.

OUTLOOK

The extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain, as does its impact on the overall economy and TimkenSteel’s customers. For that reason, the company will not provide guidance on shipments and earnings for the third quarter.

The company expects its planned capital expenditure spending to be between $15 million and $20 million in 2020, a reduction from the previous outlook of a maximum of $25 million.

Exhibit 99.1

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

TimkenSteel reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and corresponding metrics as non-GAAP financial measures. This earnings release includes references to the following non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted earnings (loss) per share, adjusted net income (loss), EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and base sales. These are important financial measures used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. Management believes that reporting these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as these measures are representative of the company’s performance and provide improved comparability of results.  See the attached schedules for definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures referred to above and corresponding reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as additions to, and not as alternatives for, TimkenSteel's results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP measures TimkenSteel uses may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, and other companies may not define the non-GAAP measures TimkenSteel uses in the same way.
