AK Steel Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2016 Financial Results

WEST CHESTER, OH, January 24, 2017 – AK Steel (NYSE: AKS) today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2016.

4th Quarter 2016 Highlights
Sales of $1.42 billion with an average selling price of $998 per ton
Net loss of $62.4 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, includes benefit plan and other charges
Adjusted net income of $75.2 million, or $0.25 per diluted share
Adjusted EBITDA of $164.9 million, or 11.6% of net sales, including unrealized mark-to-market gains on iron ore derivatives
Liquidity of $1.35 billion

AK Steel reported a net loss of $62.4 million, or $0.22 per diluted share of common stock, for the fourth quarter of 2016, compared to a net loss of $145.4 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2015. Included in the most recent fourth quarter were charges totaling $137.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, and unrealized derivative gains of $33.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. Included in the year ago fourth quarter were charges totaling $200.9 million, or $1.13 per diluted share. The charges and unrealized derivative gains are discussed in the “Fourth Quarter Items” section below.
The company reported adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below) of $164.9 million, or 11.6% of net sales, for the fourth quarter of 2016, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $168.3 million, or 10.9% of net sales, for the fourth quarter a year ago.
“The strategy that we introduced at the beginning of 2016 generated improved results and a stronger AK Steel,” said Roger K. Newport, AK Steel’s Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Newport continued, “Our work to optimize our footprint, relentlessly focus on costs, and reduce exposure to commodity spot markets generated improved margins. By successfully completing several capital market transactions, we were able to significantly strengthen our balance sheet. These actions position us well for the future.”
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2016 were $1.42 billion on shipments of 1,412,200 tons, compared to net sales of $1.54 billion on shipments of 1,655,800 tons for the year-ago fourth quarter. The decline in shipments was largely driven by the company’s strategic decision to reduce commodity steel sales to the distributor and converters market, which declined 23% from the fourth quarter of 2015. Also, shipments to the automotive industry were slightly lower in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to a year ago, primarily as a result of inventory adjustments by several major automakers and changes to or the phasing out of certain automotive platforms. The average selling price for the fourth quarter of 2016 increased 7% from the fourth quarter of 2015 to $998 per ton as a result of the better sales mix and higher carbon steel spot market pricing, partially offset by lower automotive contract pricing.
The 2016 fourth quarter results include a LIFO credit of $7.5 million, significantly lower than the LIFO credit of $98.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. Additionally, the company recorded outage costs of $22.1 million and $7.0 million for the fourth quarters of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
The company recorded an income tax benefit for the fourth quarter of 2016 of $0.9 million, or less than $0.01 per diluted share, compared to income tax expense of $23.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the fourth

quarter of 2015. The company’s income tax provision is primarily related to changes in the company’s LIFO reserve, which results in a tax valuation allowance adjustment related to the company’s deferred tax assets, and from the allocation of income tax expense to other comprehensive income. Included in the results for the fourth quarter of 2016 was a non-cash income tax benefit of $4.5 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, as a result of the allocation of income tax expense to other comprehensive income, compared to a similar benefit of $13.2 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2015.
The company ended the fourth quarter of 2016 with total liquidity of $1.35 billion, consisting of cash and cash equivalents and $1.19 billion of availability under the company’s revolving credit facility.

Full-Year 2016 Highlights
Sales of $5.88 billion with an average selling price of $969 per ton
Net loss of $7.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, includes benefit plan and other charges
Adjusted net income of $129.8 million, or $0.56 per diluted share
Adjusted EBITDA of $501.9 million, or 8.5% of net sales, including unrealized mark-to-market gains on iron ore derivatives

The company recorded a full-year 2016 net loss of $7.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share of common stock, compared to a net loss of $509.0 million, or $2.86 per diluted share, for 2015. The company reported 2016 adjusted net income of $129.8 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, which reflected charges totaling $137.6 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, as discussed in the “Fourth Quarter Charges” section below. The company’s results improved from its 2015 adjusted net loss of $51.8 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, which reflected certain charges totaling $457.2 million, or $2.57 per diluted share. Included in net income and adjusted net income for 2016 are unrealized gains of $45.6 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, from iron ore derivatives that no longer qualify for hedge accounting treatment after the termination of the pellet offtake agreement with Magnetation LLC.
The company reported adjusted EBITDA of $501.9 million, or 8.5% of net sales, for 2016, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $393.4 million, or 5.9% of net sales, for 2015. The 2016 results included LIFO credits of $23.3 million, lower than the LIFO credits of $195.3 million for 2015, primarily due to the leveling off of raw material cost declines in 2016 compared to 2015. Additionally, the company recorded outage costs of $62.1 million and $50.6 million for the full years of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Net sales for 2016 were $5.88 billion on shipments of 6,051,800 tons, a decrease from 2015 net sales of $6.69 billion on 7,089,200 tons. The decline in shipments from 2015 was primarily the result of a 41% decline in shipments to the distributor and converters market as the company intentionally reduced sales of commodity products. Shipments to the automotive industry were 4% higher in 2016 over 2015, which was higher than the 2% increase in North American automotive build rate for the same period. The average selling price for 2016 increased 3% from 2015 to $969 per ton.
The company recorded income tax expense of $3.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in 2016 compared to 2015 income tax expense of $63.4 million, or $0.36 per diluted share.

Fourth Quarter Items
Included in the results for the fourth quarter of 2016 are unrealized gains of $33.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, from iron ore derivatives that settle in 2017 and 2018 that no longer qualify for hedge accounting treatment after the termination of the pellet offtake agreement with Magnetation LLC.
Also included in the results were net pension and other postretirement benefits (“OPEB”) corridor charges and pension settlement charges of $68.1 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2016 and $131.2 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2015. Included in the net pension and OPEB corridor charge for the fourth quarter of 2016 was a pension corridor charge of $78.4 million, partially offset by an OPEB corridor credit of $35.3 million. Under the company’s method of accounting for pension and OPEB plans, the company recognizes into income when it remeasures its plan assets and obligations any unrecognized actuarial gains and losses that exceed 10% of the larger of projected benefit obligations or plan assets (the “corridor”). Declines in interest rates from the end of 2015 generated net corridor charges for 2016, offset by better than expected pension asset returns and positive OPEB claims and demographic experience in 2016. Neither the pension corridor charge nor the OPEB corridor credit had any current cash flow impact. The company incurred $25.0

million of pension settlement charges in the fourth quarter of 2016 related to the purchase of annuity contracts for certain retirees and lump sum payouts to new retirees.
In connection with the bankruptcy of Magnetation LLC, the company’s fourth quarter 2016 results included a charge of $69.5 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for a previously disclosed $36.6 million payment made in the quarter to terminate the company’s pellet offtake agreement with Magnetation LLC and a $32.9 million charge primarily related to the present value of rail car leases. The actual cash payments for the rail car leases will be made over the next 12 years, however, accounting rules required a liability to be recorded in the fourth quarter to reflect the periods where we do not expect to use the leased assets.
The company’s financial results for the fourth quarter of 2015 included charges of $28.1 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for supplemental unemployment and other employee benefit costs, as well as other costs incurred to temporarily idle the Ashland Works steelmaking operations. In the same quarter of 2015, the company recognized a charge of $41.6 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, to write off its remaining investment in AFSG, the holding company of its discontinued insurance operations. The company’s full year 2015 results also included a $256.3 million charge, or $1.44 per diluted share, to write off its investment in Magnetation.

AK STEEL HOLDING CORPORATION
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions)

In certain of its disclosures in this news release, the company has reported adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net income (loss) that exclude the effects of noncontrolling interests, pension and OPEB net corridor and settlement charges, charges for the termination of a pellet offtake agreement and related transportation costs, impairment charges for the company’s investments in Magnetation and AFSG and charges for temporarily idling facilities. Management believes that reporting adjusted net income (loss) attributable to AK Holding with these items excluded (as a total and on a per share basis) more clearly reflects the company’s current operating results and provides investors with a better understanding of the company’s overall financial performance.

EBITDA is an acronym for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. It is a metric that is sometimes used to compare the results of different companies by removing the effects of different factors that might otherwise make comparisons inaccurate or inappropriate. For purposes of this release, the company has made adjustments to EBITDA to exclude the effects of noncontrolling interests, pension and OPEB net corridor and settlement charges, charges for the termination of a pellet offtake agreement and related transportation costs, impairment charges for its investments in Magnetation and AFSG and charges for temporarily idling facilities. The adjusted results, although not financial measures under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and not identically applied by other companies, facilitate the ability to analyze the company’s financial results in relation to those of its competitors and to the company’s prior financial performance by excluding items that otherwise would distort the comparison.  Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted net income (loss) are not, however, intended as alternative measures of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Neither current nor potential investors in the company’s securities should rely on adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin or adjusted net income (loss) as a substitute for any GAAP financial measure and the company encourages current and potential investors to review the following reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss).
