6th annual Craig-hallum alpha select conference September 17, 2015 Exhibit 99.1
Cautions about forward-looking statements and other notices Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements. This presentation contains forward-looking statements, which are based on our current expectations, estimates and projections about Real Industry, Inc. and its subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) businesses and prospects, as well as management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “may,” “should,” “will” and variations of these words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements speak only as of the date hereof and are subject to change. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the Company’s long-term investment decisions, further acquisitions, potential de-leveraging and expansion and business strategies; anticipated growth opportunities; the amount of capital-raising necessary to achieve those strategies; utilization of federal net operating loss tax carryforwards; Real Alloy’s improvements to operating efficiencies and cost of sales; as well as future performance, growth, operating results, financial condition and prospects. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Important factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to the Company’s ability to successfully identify, consummate and integrate acquisitions and/or other businesses; changes in business or other market conditions; the difficulty of keeping expense growth at modest levels while increasing revenues; the difficulty of making operating and cost improvements; the Company and its subsidiaries' ability to successfully defend against current and new litigation and indemnification matters, as well as demands by investment banks for defense, indemnity, and contribution claims; the Company’s ability to access and realize value from its federal net operating loss tax carryforwards; the Company’s ability to identify and recruit management; the Company’s ability to maintain the listing requirements of the NASDAQ; and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company’s SEC filings, including but not limited to the most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports filed on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Use of Non-GAAP Measures. This presentation includes references to the non-GAAP financial measures of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and, with certain additional adjustments (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Management believes that the non-GAAP measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA enhance the understanding of the financial performance of the operations of Real Alloy (and prior to its acquisition, the former global recycling and specification alloys business of Aleris Corporation) by investors and lenders. As a complement to financial measures recognized under GAAP, management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA assist investors who follow the practice of some investment analysts who adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude items that may obscure underlying performance and distort comparability. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures recognized under GAAP, they are not intended to be presented herein as a substitute for earnings (loss) from continuing operations, net earnings (loss), net income attributable to Aleris or Real Alloy, or segment income, as indicators of operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are primarily performance measurements used by our senior management and Board of Directors to evaluate certain operating results. Reconciliation to the GAAP equivalent of the non-GAAP measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for Real Alloy are provided herein, in our Forms 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 12, 2015 and August 17, 2015, on our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 29, 2015, and in Note 4 on page S-35 of the Prospectus Supplement No. 1 dated January 29, 2015 for the rights offering as filed with the SEC.
