Ryerson strongly urges you to review its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which can be found at https://ir.ryerson.com/financials/sec-filings/default.aspx.

Safe Harbor Provision Certain statements made in this presentation and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of the Company constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding our future performance, as well as management's expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates, objectives, or projections relating to the future. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “objectives,” “goals,” “preliminary,” “range,” "believes," "expects," "may," "estimates," "will," "should," "plans," or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. The Company cautions that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Among the factors that significantly impact our business are: the cyclicality of our business; the highly competitive, volatile, and fragmented metals industry in which we operate; fluctuating metal prices; our substantial indebtedness and the covenants in instruments governing such indebtedness; the integration of acquired operations; regulatory and other operational risks associated with our operations located inside and outside of the United States; impacts and implications of adverse health events, including the COVID-19 pandemic; work stoppages; obligations under certain employee retirement benefit plans; the ownership of a majority of our equity securities by a single investor group; currency fluctuations; and consolidation in the metals industry. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be considered in light of various factors, including those set forth above and those set forth under "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Moreover, we caution against placing undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date they were made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances, new information or otherwise.

Slide 6

Strong Liquidity to Fund Operations and Investments Ryerson has ample liquidity to fund operations throughout the COVID-19 crisis ($M) Liquidity decreased quarter-over-quarter due to a lower borrowing base from reduced inventories and receivables. We had drawn upon on our credit facility in March consistent with Ryerson’s Pandemic Response Plan given the resultant volatility and uncertainty, and our cash position will normalize as economic conditions normalize. Also in-line with our pandemic response plan, we established aggressive working capital targets, and effectively reduced inventories during the period by more than 95,000 tons, or approximately 20%, while repositioning to match current levels of demand.

Successful Refinance: Achievements Illuminated & Optionality Secured Ryerson has driven down net debt and fixed cash commitments as part of its transformation strategy and has now secured a lower coupon and terms that grant optionality for further optimization ​ 2012​ 2016​ 2020​ Principle Amount​ $900M​ $650M​ $500M​ Coupon​ 9.75%​ 11.00%​ 8.50%​ Annual Interest​ $87.8M​ $71.5M​ $42.5M​   Ryerson reduced net debt by $130M in the first half of 2020 to $793M, the lowest achieved in ten years. On July 22nd, Ryerson closed the refinance of its 11% Senior Secured Notes and issued $500M in 8.5% Senior Secured Notes. The reduced coupon and principle is expected to save approximately $16M in annual interest expenses. Ryerson also secured favorable redemption terms, which will allow the Company to reduce the outstanding principle by up to $100 million at 104% within the first two years, and up to 10% of the original principle in each of the first three years at 103% Net Debt ($M) Reduced Interest

Best in Class Free Cash Flow Yield Free cash flow yield over the past 22 quarters well above publicly traded peer group and compares favorably with most companies over that time period ​ Improved operating profile had led to a 28% average free cash flow yield for the five-year period of 2015-2019. Countercyclical cash flow generation thus far in 2020 has driven that average yield up to 42%. *Free cash flow calculated as net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities plus proceeds from sales of property, plant, & equipment, less capital expenditures. *Market capitalization represents an average of the beginning and ending shares outstanding, multiplied by average daily share price.

Ryerson end-markets that showed relative strength in the quarter were ground transportation, consumer durables, food & ag and HVAC. End-markets that remained neutral through the quarter were construction and fabrication & machine shops while industrial equipment and oil & gas continued to struggle. 2019 Sales Mix Commentary End-Market Activity End-Market Outlook

31 EBITDA represents net income before interest and other expense on debt, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA gives further effect to, among other things, gain on the sale of assets, gain on insurance settlements, reorganization expenses, purchase considerations and other transaction costs, gain (loss) on retirement of debt, and foreign currency transaction gains and losses. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), provides useful information to investors regarding our operational performance because they enhance an investor’s overall understanding of our core financial performance and provide a basis of comparison of results between current, past, and future periods. We also disclose the metric Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), to provide a means of comparison amongst our competitors who may not use the same basis of accounting for inventories. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), are three of the primary metrics management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods, including trending and analyzing the core operating performance of our business without the effect of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, expenses, revenues, and gains (losses) that are unrelated to the day to day performance of our business. We also establish compensation programs for our executive management and regional employees that are based upon the achievement of pre-established EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), targets. We also use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), to benchmark our operating performance to that of our competitors. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), do not represent, and should not be used as a substitute for, net income or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and neither EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), is necessarily an indication of whether cash flow will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements. This release also presents gross margin, excluding LIFO expense (income), which is calculated as gross profit plus LIFO expense (or minus LIFO income), divided by net sales. We have excluded LIFO expense (income) from gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales metrics in order to provide a means of comparison amongst our competitors who may not use the same basis of accounting for inventories as we do. Our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), as a percentage of sales may differ from that of other companies. We also present net debt defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash from sales of property, plant, and equipment, and marketable securities. We believe that net debt provides a clearer perspective of the Company’s overall debt situation and is used by management to evaluate our progress toward improving our debt profile. Net debt should not be used as a substitute for total debt outstanding as determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP Reconciliation
