believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Although Arconic believes that the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable
assumptions, these expectations may not be attained and it is possible that actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances,
many of which are beyond Arconic’s control. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: (a) existing and future adverse effects in connection with COVID-19 and the potential for COVID-19 related issues to significantly
heighten the other risks customarily associated with our business (including those identified below); (b) the risk that we are unable to fully realize the expected benefits of the separation, or that dissynergy costs, costs of restructuring
transactions and other costs incurred in connection with the separation, once fully realized, will exceed our estimates; (c) the risk of operating our business as a standalone company, which could result in additional demands on Arconic’s
resources, systems, procedures and controls, disruption of its ongoing business, and diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns; (d) deterioration in global economic and financial market conditions generally; (e)
unfavorable changes in the markets served by Arconic; (f) the inability to achieve the level of revenue growth, cash generation, cost savings, benefits of our management of legacy liabilities, improvement in profitability and margins, fiscal
discipline, or strengthening of competitiveness and operations anticipated or targeted; (g) competition from new product offerings, disruptive technologies, industry consolidation or other developments; (h) political, economic, and regulatory

or safety; (j) the inability to meet demand for our products successfully or to mitigate the impact of cancellations of orders or reductions or delays caused by supply chain disruption; (k) a material disruption of Arconic’s operations,
particularly at one or more of Arconic’s manufacturing facilities; (l) the inability to develop innovative new products or implement technology initiatives successfully; (m) challenges to or infringements on Arconic’s intellectual property
rights; (n) Arconic’s inability to realize expected benefits, in each case as planned and by targeted completion dates, from acquisitions, divestitures, facility closures, curtailments, expansions, or joint ventures; (o) the impact of
potential cyber attacks and information technology or data security breaches; (p) the loss of significant customers or adverse changes in customers’ business or financial condition; (q) a significant downturn in the business or financial
condition of a key supplier; (r) adverse changes in discount rates or investment returns on pension assets; (s) our inability to adequately mitigate the impact of changes in aluminum prices and foreign currency exchange rates on costs and
results; (t) the outcome of contingencies, including legal proceedings, government or regulatory investigations, and environmental remediation, which can expose Arconic to substantial costs and liabilities; (u) a determination by the IRS that
the distribution or certain related transactions should be treated as taxable transactions; (v) risks associated with indebtedness, including potential restriction on our operations and the impact of events of default; and (w) the other risk
factors summarized in Arconic’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and other reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The above list of factors is not exhaustive or necessarily in order of importance.
Market projections are subject to the risks discussed above and other risks in the market. The statements in this presentation are made as of the date of this presentation, even if subsequently made available by Arconic on its website or
otherwise. Arconic disclaims any intention or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether in response to new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
Important Information (cont’d) 3 Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresSome of the information included in
this presentation is derived from Arconic’s consolidated financial information but is not presented in Arconic’s financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
Certain of these financial measures are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under SEC rules. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement our GAAP disclosures and should not be considered an alternative to any measure of performance or
financial condition as determined in accordance with GAAP, and investors should consider Arconic’s performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial
condition of Arconic. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results or financial condition as reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP
financial measures presented by Arconic may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and management’s rationale for the use of the
non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the schedules to this presentation. Arconic has not provided reconciliations of any forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow to the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measures because such reconciliations are not available without unreasonable efforts due to the variability and complexity with respect to the charges and other components excluded from the non-GAAP measures, such as
the effects of metal price lag, foreign currency movements, gains or losses on sales of assets, taxes, and any future restructuring or impairment charges. These reconciling items are in addition to the inherent variability already included in
the GAAP measures, which includes, but is not limited to, price/mix and volume. Arconic believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.Other InformationEffective July 1,
2020, the Company changed its inventory cost method to average cost for all U.S. inventories previously carried at last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost. The effects of the change in accounting principle from LIFO to average cost have been
retrospectively applied to all prior periods presented. See the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 for further information.

Adjusted EBITDA Prior to April 1, 2020, Arconic Corporation’s financial statements were prepared on a carve-out basis, as the underlying operations of the Company were previously consolidated as part of Arconic Corporation’s former parent
company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company’s results of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, the first three months included in the year ended December 31, 2020, and all months included in the year ended December
31, 2019 were prepared on such basis. The carve-out financial statements of Arconic Corporation are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s consolidated results of operations had it been a standalone company during the referenced periods.
See the Combined Financial Statements included in each of (i) Exhibit 99.1 to Arconic Corporation’s Form 10 Registration Statement (filed on February 7, 2020), (ii) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019
(filed on March 30, 2020), and (iii) the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 (filed on May 18, 2020), for additional information.Effective in the second quarter of 2020, management elected to change the
profit or loss measure of the Company’s reportable segments from Segment operating profit to Segment Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) for internal reporting and performance measurement
purposes. This change was made to enhance the transparency and visibility of the underlying operating performance of each segment. Effective in the third quarter of 2020, management refined the Company’s Segment Adjusted EBITDA measure to
remove the impact of metal price lag (see footnote 6). This change was made to further enhance the transparency and visibility of the underlying operating performance of each segment by removing the volatility associated with metal
prices.Arconic Corporation calculates Segment Adjusted EBITDA as Total sales (third-party and intersegment) minus each of (i) Cost of goods sold, (ii) Selling, general administrative, and other expenses, and (iii) and Research and development
expenses, plus Stock-based compensation expense and Metal price lag. Previously, the Company calculated Segment operating profit as Segment Adjusted EBITDA minus each of (i) the Provision for depreciation and amortization, (ii) Stock-based
compensation expense, and (iii) Metal price lag. Arconic Corporation’s Segment Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies’ reportable segments.Also, effective July 1, 2020, the Company changed its
inventory cost method to average cost for all U.S. inventories previously carried at last-in, first-in (LIFO) cost. The effects of the change in accounting principle have been retrospectively applied to the Company’s Statement of Consolidated
Operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019. See footnote 4 for additional information.Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019 was recast to reflect the new measure of segment profit or loss
and the change in inventory cost method.Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA is the sum of the respective Segment Adjusted EBITDA for each of the Company's three reportable segments: Rolled Products, Building and Construction Systems, and
Extrusions. This amount is being presented for the sole purpose of reconciling Segment Adjusted EBITDA to the Company's Consolidated net (loss) income.
3) In preparation for the separation of Arconic Corporation from its former parent company, effective
January 1, 2020, certain U.S. defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans previously sponsored by the former parent company were separated into standalone plans for both Arconic Corporation and the former parent company.
Additionally, effective April 1, 2020, Arconic Corporation assumed a portion of the obligations associated with certain non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans that included participants related to both Arconic Corporation and its former
parent company, as well as legacy defined benefit pension plans assigned to the Company as a result of the separation from the former parent company. As a result, beginning in the first quarter of 2020 for these U.S. plans and in the second
quarter of 2020 for these non-U.S. plans, Arconic Corporation applied defined benefit plan accounting resulting in benefit plan expense being recorded in operating income (service cost) and nonoperating income (nonservice cost). In all
historical periods prior to these respective timeframes, Arconic Corporation was considered a participating employer in the former parent company’s defined benefit plans and, therefore, applied multiemployer plan accounting resulting in the
Company’s share of benefit plan expense being recorded entirely in operating income. Also, Arconic Corporation is the plan sponsor of certain other non-U.S. defined benefit plans that contain participants related only to the underlying
operations of the Company and, therefore, the related benefit plan expense was recorded in accordance with defined benefit plan accounting in all periods presented. The following table presents the total benefit plan expense (excluding
settlements and curtailments) recorded by Arconic Corporation based on the foregoing in each period presented:4) Effective July 1, 2020, the Company changed its inventory cost method to average cost for all U.S. inventories previously carried
at LIFO cost. Management believes the average cost method more closely reflects the physical flow of inventories, improves comparability of the Company’s operating results with its industry peers, and provides an increased level of
consistency in the measurement of inventories in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The effects of the change in accounting principle from LIFO to average cost have been retrospectively applied to the Company’s Statement of
Consolidated Operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019. Accordingly, for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, Net income attributable to Arconic Corporation decreased $18 (comprised of a $23 increase to Cost of goods sold
and a $5 increase to Benefit for income taxes) from the amount previously reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (filed on March 30, 2020). Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2019,
Net income attributable to Arconic Corporation decreased $48 (comprised of a $62 increase to Cost of goods sold and a $14 increase to Benefit for income taxes) from the amount previously reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019 (filed on March 30, 2020). See the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional information.5) Corporate
expenses are composed of general administrative and other expenses of operating the corporate headquarters and other global administrative facilities, as well as research and development expenses of the corporate technical center. The amount
presented for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019 represents an allocation of Arconic Corporation’s former parent company’s corporate expenses (see footnote 1).6) Metal price lag represents the financial impact of the timing
difference between when aluminum prices included in Sales are recognized and when aluminum purchase prices included in Cost of goods sold are realized. This adjustment aims to remove the effect of the volatility in metal prices and the
calculation of this impact considers applicable metal hedging transactions.7) Other includes certain items that impact Cost of goods sold and Selling, general administrative, and other expenses on the Company’s Statement of Consolidated
Operations that are not included in Segment Adjusted EBITDA, including those described as “Other special items” (see footnote 5 to the Reconciliation of Total Company Adjusted EBITDA included in this presentation). 15 Reconciliation of

714 Sales $1,462 $1,708 $5,675 $7,277 Adjusted EBITDA Margin 10.3% 9.3% 10.9% 9.8% Arconic Corporation’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is net margin plus
an add-back for the following items: Provision for depreciation and amortization; Stock-based compensation; Metal price lag (see below); and Other special items. Net margin is equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold;
Selling, general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation and amortization. Special items are composed of restructuring and other charges, discrete income tax items, and other items
as deemed appropriate by management. There can be no assurances that additional special items will not occur in future periods. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors
because Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information with respect to Arconic Corporation’s operating performance and the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures of other companies.Effective in the third quarter of 2020, management refined the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA measure to remove the impact of metal price lag (see footnote 4). This change was made to further enhance the
transparency and visibility of the underlying operating performance of the Company by removing the volatility associated with metal prices. Also, effective July 1, 2020, the Company changed its inventory cost method to average cost for all
U.S. inventories previously carried at last-in, first-in (LIFO) cost. The effects of the change in accounting principle have been retrospectively applied to the Company’s Statement of Consolidated Operations for the quarter and year ended
December 31, 2019. See footnote 2 for additional information. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019 was recast to reflect both these changes.Prior to April 1, 2020, Arconic Corporation’s financial statements were
prepared on a carve-out basis, as the underlying operations of the Company were previously consolidated as part of Arconic Corporation’s former parent company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company’s results of operations for the
quarter ended December 31, 2019, the first three months included in the year ended December 31, 2020, and all months included in the year ended December 31, 2019 were prepared on such basis. The carve-out financial statements of Arconic
Corporation are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s consolidated results of operations had it been a standalone company during the referenced periods. See the Combined Financial Statements included in each of (i) Exhibit 99.1 to
Arconic Corporation’s Form 10 Registration Statement (filed on February 7, 2020), (ii) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (filed on March 30, 2020), and (iii) the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 (filed on May 18, 2020), for additional information. Reconciliation of Total Company Adjusted EBITDA
2) Effective July 1, 2020, the Company changed its inventory cost method to average cost for all U.S.
inventories previously carried at LIFO cost. Management believes the average cost method more closely reflects the physical flow of inventories, improves comparability of the Company’s operating results with its industry peers, and provides
an increased level of consistency in the measurement of inventories in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The effects of the change in accounting principle from LIFO to average cost have been retrospectively applied to the
Company’s Statement of Consolidated Operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019. Accordingly, for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, Net income attributable to Arconic Corporation decreased $18 (comprised of a $23 increase

ended December 31, 2019, Net income attributable to Arconic Corporation decreased $48 (comprised of a $62 increase to Cost of goods sold and a $14 increase to Benefit for income taxes) from the amount previously reported in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (filed on March 30, 2020). See the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional
information.3) In preparation for the separation of Arconic Corporation from its former parent company, effective January 1, 2020, certain U.S. defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans previously sponsored by the former parent
company were separated into standalone plans for both Arconic Corporation and the former parent company. Additionally, effective April 1, 2020, Arconic Corporation assumed a portion of the obligations associated with certain non-U.S. defined
benefit pension plans that included participants related to both Arconic Corporation and its former parent company, as well as legacy defined benefit pension plans assigned to the Company as a result of the separation from the former parent
company. As a result, beginning in the first quarter of 2020 for these U.S. plans and in the second quarter of 2020 for these non-U.S. plans, Arconic Corporation applied defined benefit plan accounting resulting in benefit plan expense being
recorded in operating income (service cost) and nonoperating income (nonservice cost). In all historical periods prior to these respective timeframes, Arconic Corporation was considered a participating employer in the former parent company’s
defined benefit plans and, therefore, applied multiemployer plan accounting resulting in the Company’s share of benefit plan expense being recorded entirely in operating income. Also, Arconic Corporation is the plan sponsor of certain other
non-U.S. defined benefit plans that contain participants related only to the underlying operations of the Company and, therefore, the related benefit plan expense (excluding settlements and curtailments) was recorded in accordance with
defined benefit plan accounting in all periods presented:4) Metal price lag represents the financial impact of the timing difference between when aluminum prices included in Sales are recognized and when aluminum purchase prices included in

229 $ 204 $ 180 $ 203 $ 99 The information on this slide is being presented solely for informational purposes only. Specifically, the purpose of this slide is to reflect the impact of the implementation of two changes that
occurred in the third quarter of 2020 on the Company’s previously reported Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. The following paragraph describes these changes.Effective in the third quarter of 2020, management refined the
Company’s Adjusted EBITDA measure to remove the impact of metal price lag (see footnote 5). This change was made to further enhance the transparency and visibility of the underlying operating performance of the Company by removing the
volatility associated with metal prices. Also, effective July 1, 2020, the Company changed its inventory cost method to average cost for all U.S. inventories previously carried at last-in, first-in (LIFO) cost. The effects of the change in
accounting principle have been retrospectively applied to the Company’s Statement of Consolidated Operations for all prior periods presented. See footnote 4 for additional information.Arconic Corporation’s previous definition of Adjusted
EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) was net margin plus an add-back for the following items: Provision for depreciation and amortization; Stock-based compensation; and Other special items. Net margin is
equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling, general administrative, and other expenses; Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation and amortization. Special items are composed of
restructuring and other charges, discrete income tax items, and other items as deemed appropriate by management. There can be no assurances that additional special items will not occur in future periods. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP
financial measure. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors because Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information with respect to Arconic Corporation’s operating performance and the Company’s ability to meet its
financial obligations. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, excluding non-service costs – previously reported
1) Prior to April 1, 2020, Arconic Corporation’s financial statements were prepared on a carve-out
basis, as the underlying operations of the Company were previously consolidated as part of Arconic Corporation’s former parent company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company’s results of operations for all periods prior to second
quarter 2020 were prepared on such basis. The carve-out financial statements of Arconic Corporation are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s consolidated results of operations had it been a standalone company during the referenced
periods. See the Combined Financial Statements included in each of (i) Exhibit 99.1 to Arconic Corporation’s Form 10 Registration Statement (filed on February 7, 2020), (ii) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2019 (filed on March 30, 2020), and (iii) the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 (filed on May 18, 2020), for additional information.2) In preparation for the separation of Arconic Corporation from
its former parent company, effective January 1, 2020, certain U.S. defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans previously sponsored by the former parent company were separated into standalone plans for both Arconic Corporation and
the former parent company. Additionally, effective April 1, 2020, Arconic Corporation assumed a portion of the obligations associated with certain non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans that included participants related to both Arconic
Corporation and its former parent company, as well as legacy defined benefit pension plans assigned to the Company as a result of the separation from the former parent company. As a result, beginning in the first quarter of 2020 for these
U.S. plans and in the second quarter of 2020 for these non-U.S. plans, Arconic Corporation applied defined benefit plan accounting resulting in benefit plan expense being recorded in operating income (service cost) and nonoperating income
(nonservice cost). In all historical periods prior to these respective timeframes, Arconic Corporation was considered a participating employer in the former parent company’s defined benefit plans and, therefore, applied multiemployer plan
accounting resulting in the Company’s share of benefit plan expense being recorded entirely in operating income. Also, Arconic Corporation is the plan sponsor of certain other non-U.S. defined benefit plans that contain participants related
only to the underlying operations of the Company and, therefore, the related benefit plan expense (excluding settlements and curtailments) was recorded in accordance with defined benefit plan accounting in all periods presented. See footnote
3 to the Reconciliation of Total Company Adjusted EBITDA included in this presentation for additional information.3) Other special items include the following:for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, an allocation of costs incurred by Arconic
Corporation’s former parent company associated with the following matters: a company-wide strategy and portfolio review by management ($3), the April 1, 2020 separation of Arconic Inc. into two standalone publicly-traded companies ($1), and a
legal matter referred to as Grenfell Tower ($1);for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, a charge for an ongoing environmental remediation matter referred to as Grasse River ($25) and an allocation of costs incurred by Arconic Corporation’s
former parent company associated with the following matters: the April 1, 2020 separation of Arconic Inc. into two standalone publicly-traded companies ($9), negotiation of a collective bargaining agreement with the United Steelworkers ($9),
and a legal matter referred to as Grenfell Tower ($2);for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, an allocation of costs incurred by Arconic Corporation’s former parent company associated with the April 1, 2020 separation of Arconic Inc. into
two standalone publicly-traded companies;for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, an allocation of costs incurred by Arconic Corporation’s former parent company associated with the April 1, 2020 separation of Arconic Inc. into two standalone
publicly-traded companies ($17) and a legal matter referred to as Grenfell Tower ($1);for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, an allocation of costs incurred by Arconic Corporation’s former parent company associated with the April 1, 2020
separation of Arconic Inc. into two standalone publicly-traded companies; andfor the quarter ended June 30, 2020, costs related to several legal matters, including customer settlement ($5), Grenfell Tower ($3), and other ($3).4) Effective
July 1, 2020, the Company changed its inventory cost method to average cost for all U.S. inventories previously carried at LIFO cost. Management believes the average cost method more closely reflects the physical flow of inventories, improves
comparability of the Company’s operating results with its industry peers, and provides an increased level of consistency in the measurement of inventories in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See the Consolidated Financial
Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional information.5) Metal price lag represents the financial impact of the timing difference between when aluminum prices included
in Sales are recognized and when aluminum purchase prices included in Cost of goods sold are realized. This adjustment aims to remove the effect of the volatility in metal prices and the calculation of this impact considers applicable metal
hedging transactions.6) This adjustment reflects a proxy of non-service cost associated with certain defined benefit pension and other postretirement plan obligations had standalone plans existed for all the Company’s participants instead of
participating in defined benefit plans sponsored by Arconic Corporation’s former parent company (see footnote 2). 19 Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, excluding non-service costs – previously reported (cont’d)

for depreciation and amortization; Stock-based compensation; Metal price lag; and Other special items. Net margin is equivalent to Sales minus the following items: Cost of goods sold; Selling, general administrative, and other expenses;
Research and development expenses; and Provision for depreciation and amortization. Special items are composed of restructuring and other charges, discrete income tax items, and other items as deemed appropriate by management. There can be no

information with respect to Arconic Corporation’s operating performance and the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations. The Adjusted EBITDA presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The
Company has provided a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in this presentation (see Reconciliation of Total Company Adjusted EBITDA presented elsewhere in this Appendix). Arconic Corporation’s
definition of working capital is Receivables plus Inventories less Accounts payable, trade.In preparing the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, management discovered that the amount of (Decrease)
in account payable, trade (included in Change in working capital) previously reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was overstated by $8 and the amount of Capital expenditures previously reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was
understated by $8. As a result, for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, management has corrected both (Decrease) in accounts payable, trade and Capital expenditures from previously reported amounts to remove the respective effect of this
$8.Arconic Corporation’s definition of Free Cash Flow is Cash from operations less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that this measure is meaningful to investors because management
reviews cash flows generated from operations after taking into consideration capital expenditures, which are both necessary to maintain and expand Arconic Corporation’s asset base and expected to generate future cash flows from operations. It
is important to note that Free Cash Flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures since other non-discretionary expenditures, such as mandatory debt service requirements, are not deducted from the
measure. 4Q 2020: Cash used for operations of $(12) less capital expenditures of $37 = free cash flow of $(49)3Q 2020: Cash provided from operations of $240 less capital expenditures of $39 = free cash flow of $2012Q 2020: Cash provided from
operations of $38 less capital expenditures of $29 = free cash flow of $9
Reconciliation of Total Company Organic Revenue by End Market 21 Organic revenue is a non-GAAP

2020), the sale of a hard alloy extrusions plant in South Korea (divested in March 2020), and the impact of changes in aluminum prices and foreign currency fluctuations relative to the prior year period. ($M) (unaudited) Ground
