NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Unaudited
Note 1. Accounting Policies
The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ATI Inc. and its subsidiaries. Unless the context requires otherwise, “ATI” and “the Company” refer to ATI Inc. and its subsidiaries.
The Company follows a 4-4-5 or 5-4-4 fiscal calendar, whereby each fiscal quarter consists of thirteen weeks grouped into two four-week months and one five-week month, and its fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. Unless otherwise stated, references to years and quarters in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate to fiscal years and quarters, rather than calendar years and quarters.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period. The December 29, 2024 financial information has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to segment reporting disclosures. This guidance requires additional disclosures on an annual and interim basis of segment information, including significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and the presentation and composition of other segment items, which is the difference between segment revenue less segment expenses and the measure of segment profit or loss. The guidance also requires that all current segment disclosures required on an annual basis be provided on an interim basis and requires disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and how the CODM uses the reported measure of segment profit or loss in assessing performance and allocating resources. This guidance does not change how an entity identifies its reportable segments. This new guidance, with the exception of interim disclosures, was effective for the Company in fiscal year 2024, and the Company adopted this new accounting guidance for annual disclosures effective January 1, 2024. The interim disclosures are effective for the Company in fiscal year 2025. The adoption of these changes did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than disclosure requirements which are included in Note 11.
Pending Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to income tax disclosures. This guidance requires an entity to disclose specific categories in its annual rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. This guidance also requires additional annual disclosures for income taxes paid and requires disaggregation of income before tax, between domestic and foreign, and income tax expense, between federal, state and foreign. This guidance also eliminates several current disclosure requirements related to: (1) the nature and estimate of the range of the reasonably possible change in the unrecognized tax benefits balance in the next 12 months, (2) making a statement that an estimate of the range cannot be made, and (3) disclosing the cumulative amount of each type of temporary difference when a deferred tax liability is not recognized because of the exceptions to comprehensive recognition of deferred taxes related to subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures. This new guidance includes annual disclosure requirements that will be effective for the Company for fiscal year 2025 and must be applied on a prospective basis with retrospective application permitted. Early adoption of this guidance is also permitted. The Company does not expect to early adopt this guidance and does not expect these changes to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than disclosure requirements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to expense disaggregation disclosures. This guidance requires entities to disclose specified information about certain costs and expenses including (1) the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, (2) include certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under current generally accepted accounting principles in the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements, (3) a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, and (4) the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. This new guidance for annual disclosures will be effective for the Company for fiscal year 2027 and for interim disclosures will be effective for the Company for fiscal year 2028. The guidance can be applied prospectively
6
or retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect to early adopt this guidance and does not expect these changes to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than disclosure requirements.

These accounts receivable sales are accounted for as a sale of assets under ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing, as the Company’s continuing involvement is limited to servicing the accounts receivable, collecting the payments for the underlying accounts receivables and remitting such collections to the financial institution. The financial institution is responsible for any credit risk associated with the sold accounts receivables. The Company receives the purchase price, equal to the accounts receivable less the discount, at the time of the sale.
The Company sold $ 28.8 million of its receivables under this program during the first quarter of 2025, resulting in de-recognition of the receivables from the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company had no amounts collected on behalf of the financial institution under the Receivables Purchase Agreement at March 30, 2025. The losses associated with these transactions of $ 0.2 million are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended March 30, 2025 and are excluded from segment results. The cash received on these sales of accounts receivable during the quarter ended March 30, 2025 is presented in changes in receivables within operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Other Customer Receivable Sales
In the first quarter ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the Company sold $ 72.6 million and $ 68.0 million, respectively, of certain customers’ accounts receivables through programs established by those customers with third-party financial institutions. These customers have extended payment terms and provide the programs to enable suppliers to receive more timely payments. The Company has no continuing involvement with the receivables sold under these programs, including no servicing requirement. The proceeds from these transactions are presented in changes in receivables within operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The losses associated with these transactions of $ 1.4 million and $ 1.6 million are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the quarters ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively, and are excluded from segment results.

Revolving Credit Facility
The Company has an Asset Based Lending (ABL) Credit Facility, which is collateralized by the accounts receivable and inventory of the Company’s operations. The ABL facility also provides the Company with the option of including certain machinery and equipment as additional collateral for purposes of determining availability under the facility. The ABL facility, which matures in September 2027, includes a $ 600 million revolving credit facility, a letter of credit sub-facility of up to $ 200 million, a $ 200 million term loan (Term Loan), and a swing loan facility of up to $ 60 million. The Term Loan has an interest rate of 2.0 % above the adjusted Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) and can be prepaid in increments of $ 25 million if certain minimum liquidity conditions are satisfied. In addition, the Company has the right to request an increase of up to $ 300 million in the maximum amount available under the revolving credit facility for the duration of the ABL.
The applicable interest rate for revolving credit borrowings under the ABL facility includes interest rate spreads based on available borrowing capacity that range between 1.25 % and 1.75 % for SOFR-based borrowings and between 0.25 % and 0.75 % for base rate borrowings. The ABL facility contains a financial covenant whereby the Company must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 : 1.00 after an event of default has occurred and is continuing or if the undrawn availability under the ABL revolving credit portion of the facility is less than the greater of (i) 10 % of the then applicable maximum loan amount under the revolving credit portion of the ABL and the outstanding Term Loan balance, or (ii) $ 60.0 million. The Company was in compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio as of March 30, 2025. Additionally, the Company must demonstrate minimum liquidity specified by the facility during the 90 -day period immediately preceding the stated maturity date of its 6.95 % Debentures due 2025 issued by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Allegheny Ludlum LLC. The ABL also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness or liens or to enter into investments, mergers and acquisitions, dispositions of assets and transactions with affiliates, some of which are more restrictive, at any time during the term of the ABL when the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio is less than 1.00 : 1.00 and its undrawn availability under the revolving portion of the
12
ABL is less than the greater of (a) $ 120 million or (b) 20 % of the sum of the maximum loan amount under the revolving credit portion of the ABL and the outstanding Term Loan balance.
As of March 30, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving portion of the ABL facility, and $ 30.5 million was utilized to support the issuance of letters of credit. There were no revolving credit borrowings under the ABL facility during the first quarter of 2025 or 2024. The Company also has foreign credit facilities, primarily in China, that total $ 57 million based on March 30, 2025 foreign exchange rates, none of which was drawn as of March 30, 2025 or December 29, 2024.
Note 9. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging
As part of its risk management strategy, the Company, from time-to-time, utilizes derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to changes in raw material prices, energy costs, foreign currencies, and interest rates. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company accounts for most of these contracts as hedges.
The Company sometimes uses futures and swap contracts to manage exposure to changes in prices for forecasted purchases of raw materials, such as nickel, and natural gas. Under these contracts, which are generally accounted for as cash flow hedges, the price of the item being hedged is fixed at the time that the contract is entered into, and the Company is obligated to make or receive a payment equal to the net change between this fixed price and the market price at the date the contract matures.
The majority of ATI’s products are sold under contractual arrangements that include raw material surcharges and index mechanisms. However, as of March 30, 2025, the Company had entered into financial hedging arrangements, primarily at the request of its customers related to firm orders, for an aggregate notional amount of approximately 4 million pounds of nickel with hedge dates through 2027. The aggregate notional amount hedged is approximately 6 % of a single year’s estimated nickel raw material purchase requirements. These derivative instruments are used to hedge the variability of a selling price that is based on the London Metal Exchange (LME) index for nickel, as well as to hedge the variability of the purchase cost of nickel based on this LME index. Any gain or loss associated with these hedging arrangements is included in sales or cost of sales, depending on whether the underlying risk being hedged is the variable selling price or the variable raw material cost, respectively.
At March 30, 2025, the outstanding financial derivatives used to hedge the Company’s exposure to energy cost volatility consisted of natural gas cost hedges. At March 30, 2025, the Company hedged approximately 75 % of its forecasted domestic requirements for natural gas for the remainder of 2025 and approximately 35 % for 2026.
While the majority of the Company’s direct export sales are transacted in U.S. dollars, it uses foreign currency exchange contracts, from time-to-time, to limit transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates for those transactions denominated in a non-U.S. currency. The Company sometimes purchases foreign currency forward contracts that permit it to sell specified amounts of foreign currencies it expects to receive from its export sales for pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. In addition, the Company may also hedge forecasted capital expenditures and designate cash balances held in foreign currencies as hedges of forecasted foreign currency transactions. At March 30, 2025, the Company had no material outstanding foreign currency forward contracts.
The Company may enter into derivative interest rate contracts to maintain a reasonable balance between fixed- and floating-rate debt. There were no outstanding derivative interest rate contracts at March 30, 2025.
There are no credit risk-related contingent features in the Company’s derivative contracts, and the contracts contain no provisions under which the Company has posted, or would be required to post, collateral. The counterparties to the Company’s derivative contracts are substantial and creditworthy commercial banks that are recognized market makers. The Company controls its credit exposure by diversifying across multiple counterparties and by monitoring credit ratings and credit default swap spreads of its counterparties. The Company also enters into master netting agreements with counterparties when possible.
The fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments are presented below, representing the gross amounts recognized which are not offset by counterparty or by type of item hedged. All fair values for these derivatives were measured using Level 2 information as defined by the accounting standard hierarchy, which includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

For derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (OCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged item affects earnings. For derivative financial instruments that are designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in current period results. There were no outstanding fair value hedges as of March 30, 2025. The cash flow impact for all derivative financial instruments is reported in cash flows provided by operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company did not use net investment hedges for the periods presented. The effects of derivative instruments in the tables below are presented net of related income taxes, excluding any impacts of changes to income tax valuation allowances affecting results of operations or other comprehensive income, when applicable (see Note 15 for further explanation).
Assuming market prices remain constant with those at March 30, 2025, a pre-tax gain of $ 2.6 million is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months.
Activity with regard to derivatives designated as cash flow hedges for the quarters and year-to-date periods ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 was as follows (in millions):

The gains (losses) reclassified from accumulated OCI into income on the interest rate swap are presented in interest expense in the same period as the interest expense on the Term Loan is recognized in earnings.
The disclosures of gains or losses presented above for nickel and other raw material contracts and foreign currency contracts do not take into account the anticipated underlying transactions. Since these derivative contracts represent hedges, the net effect of any gain or loss on results of operations may be fully or partially offset.
The Company may also use derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges to protect the Company’s results from certain fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, as well as to offset a portion of the foreign currency gains and losses generated by
14
the remeasurement of certain assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Changes in the fair value of these foreign exchange contract derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are recorded in cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations, and the Company recognized $ 1.8 million of income, net, for settled foreign currency forward contracts that were not designated as hedges during the quarter ended March 30, 2025, respectively, which offset foreign currency gains/losses in the relevant currency. We have no significant outstanding hedges that are not designated as of March 30, 2025 .

(a) The total carrying amount for debt for both periods excludes debt issuance costs related to the recognized debt liability which is presented in the consolidated balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability.
In accordance with accounting standards, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards established three levels of a fair value hierarchy that prioritize the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
The availability of observable market data is monitored to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. In such instances, the transfer is reported at the beginning of the reporting period.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:
15
Cash and cash equivalents: Fair value was determined using Level 1 information.
Derivative financial instruments: Fair values for derivatives were measured using exchange-traded prices for the hedged items. The fair value was determined using Level 2 information, including consideration of counterparty risk and the Company’s credit risk.
Short-term and long-term debt: The fair values of the Company’s publicly traded debt were based on Level 1 information. The fair values of the other short-term and long-term debt were determined using Level 2 information.
Note 11. Business Segments
The Company operates under two business segments: High Performance Materials & Components (HPMC) and Advanced Alloys & Solutions (AA&S). ATI’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer. Segment EBITDA, the Company’s segment operating measure, is used by the CODM to assess segment operating performance and to determine the allocation of resources. Segment EBITDA as a percentage of segment revenues is utilized to assess the profitability of each segment and whether the Company’s strategies are resulting in margin expansion and expected operating performance improvements. The measure of segment EBITDA excludes net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, goodwill impairment charges, debt extinguishment charges, corporate expenses, closed operations and other income (expense), restructuring and other credits/charges, gains or losses on the sale of accounts receivables, strike related costs, long-lived asset impairments, pension remeasurement gains and losses, other postretirement/pension curtailment and settlement gains and losses, and gains or losses on sales of businesses. Management believes segment EBITDA, as defined, provides an appropriate measure of controllable operating results at the business segment level.
Intersegment sales are generally recorded at full cost or market. Following is certain financial information with respect to the Company’s business segments for the periods indicated (in millions):

(2) The increase in corporate overhead costs over the time periods presented represent the consolidation and centralization of certain functions, including information technology, human resources and talent acquisition, payroll and accounts payable, into the Company’s corporate shared services function. Such amounts are subject to change from year to year as allocation methodologies are revised to match the nature of these corporate costs.
(3) Other segment items for each reportable segment include: cost of sales, general and administrative expenses, and gain/loss on asset sales. General & administrative expenses consist of non-manufacturing payroll and benefits, office expenses, professional service and legal expenses, occupancy expenses including rent and lease expense, and travel expense.
Total international sales for the quarters ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 were $ 500.6 million and $ 471.3 million, respectively. Of these amounts, sales by operations in the U.S. to customers in other countries for the quarters ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 were $ 414.9 million and $ 361.3 million, respectively.
Restructuring and other charges of $ 5.6 million for the quarter ended March 30, 2025 include $ 4.0 million of start-up and transaction related costs, which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations and $ 1.6 million of losses on the sale of accounts receivables . Restructuring and other charges of $ 3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 include $ 2.9 million of start-up costs, which are included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of operations, and $ 0.2 million of restructuring charges (see Note 6).

Note 12. Retirement Benefits
The Company has defined contribution retirement plans or defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all employees. Company contributions to defined contribution retirement plans are generally based on a percentage of eligible pay or based on hours worked. Benefits under the defined benefit pension plans are generally based on years of service and/or final average pay. The Company funds the U.S. pension plans in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company also sponsors several postretirement plans covering certain collectively-bargained salaried and hourly employees. The plans provide health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees. In most retiree health care plans, Company contributions towards premiums are capped based on the cost as of a certain date, thereby creating a defined contribution. All defined benefit pension and retiree health care plans are closed to new entrants.
For the quarters ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the components of pension and other postretirement benefit expense for the Company’s defined benefit plans included the following (in millions):

Diluted net income attributable to ATI per common share $ 0.67 $ 0.46
Common stock that would be issuable upon the assumed conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes, prior to their redemption during the third quarter of 2024, and other option equivalents and contingently issuable shares are excluded from the computation of contingently issuable shares, and therefore, from the denominator for diluted earnings per share, if the effect of inclusion is anti-dilutive. There were no anti-dilutive shares for the quarters ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024.
Periodically, the Company’s Board of Directors authorizes the repurchase of ATI common stock (the “Share Repurchase Program”), most recently authorizing the repurchase of up to $ 700 million, as announced in September 2024. Repurchases under these programs are made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases are structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of SEC Rule 10b-18. In the quarter ended March 30, 2025, ATI used $ 70.0 million to repurchase 1.2 million of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program. At March 30, 2025, the Company has utilized $ 180 million of the $ 700 million currently authorized under the Share Repurchase Program. In the quarter ended March 31, 2024, ATI used $ 150.0 million to repurchase 3.4 million shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program.
The Company’s share repurchases are subject to a 1% excise tax as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Excise taxes incurred on share repurchases represent direct costs of the repurchase and are recorded as part of the cost basis of the shares within treasury stock. The cost of share repurchases for the quarters ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 of $ 70.2 million and $ 151.2 million, respectively, differs from the repurchases of common stock amounts in the consolidated statements of cash flows due to these excise taxes.

Other comprehensive income (loss) amounts (OCI) reported above by category are net of applicable income tax expense (benefit) for each period presented. Income tax expense (benefit) on OCI items is recorded as a change in a deferred tax asset or liability. Amounts recognized in OCI include the impact of any deferred tax asset valuation allowances, when applicable. Foreign currency translation adjustments, including those pertaining to noncontrolling interests, are generally not adjusted for income taxes as they relate to indefinite investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries.

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various domestic and international environmental laws and regulations that govern the discharge of pollutants and disposal of wastes, and which may require that it investigate and remediate the effects of the release or disposal of materials at sites associated with past and present operations. The Company could incur substantial cleanup costs, fines, and civil or criminal sanctions, third party property damage or personal injury claims as a result of violations or liabilities under these laws or noncompliance with environmental permits required at its facilities. The Company is currently involved in the investigation and remediation of a number of its current and former sites, as well as third party sites.
Environmental liabilities are recorded when the Company’s liability is probable and the costs are reasonably estimable. In many cases, however, the Company is not able to determine whether it is liable or, if liability is probable, to reasonably estimate the loss or range of loss. Estimates of the Company’s liability remain subject to additional uncertainties, including the nature and extent of site contamination, available remediation alternatives, the extent of corrective actions that may be required, and the number, participation, and financial condition of other potentially responsible parties (PRPs). The Company adjusts its accruals to reflect new information as appropriate. Future adjustments could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
21
consolidated results of operations in a given period, but the Company cannot reliably predict the amounts of such future adjustments.
At March 30, 2025, the Company’s reserves for environmental remediation obligations totaled approximately $ 15 million, of which $ 6 million was included in other current liabilities. The reserve includes estimated probable future costs of $ 3 million for federal Superfund and comparable state-managed sites; $ 6 million for formerly owned or operated sites for which the Company has remediation or indemnification obligations; and $ 6 million for owned or controlled sites at which Company operations have been or plan to be discontinued. The timing of expenditures depends on a number of factors that vary by site. The Company expects that it will expend present accruals over many years and that remediation of all sites with which it has been identified will be completed within thirty years. The Company continues to evaluate whether it may be able to recover a portion of past and future costs for environmental liabilities from third parties and to pursue such recoveries where appropriate.
Based on currently available information, it is reasonably possible that costs for recorded matters may exceed the Company’s recorded reserves by as much as $ 16 million. Future investigation or remediation activities may result in the discovery of additional hazardous materials or potentially higher levels of contamination than discovered during prior investigation, and may impact costs associated with the success or lack thereof in remedial solutions. Therefore, future developments, administrative actions or liabilities relating to environmental matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations and cash flows.
A number of other lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its currently and formerly owned businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, environmental, health and safety matters and occupational disease (including as each relates to alleged asbestos exposure), as well as patent infringement, commercial, government contracting, construction, employment, employee and retiree benefits, taxes, environmental, and stockholder and corporate governance matters. While the outcome of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and some of these lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be determined adversely to the Company, management does not believe that the disposition of any such pending matters is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or liquidity, although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations for that period.
The Company received employee retention tax credits under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Due to the complex nature of the employee retention credit computations, the Company deferred recognition of a portion of the tax credits pending the completion of any potential audit or examination, or the expiration of the related statute of limitations. As of March 30, 2025, the Company has approximately $ 11.5 million of remaining deferred retention tax credits, of which the statute of limitations expires for $ 7.0 million in the second quarter of 2025, with the remaining expirations occurring in 2027.
In August 2024, the Company received notice that it and certain of its affiliates are parties to two lawsuits captioned (1) William L. Schoen, Mary J. Nesbit, Robin L. Rosewicz, George E. Poole and James E. Swartz, Jr., individually and as representatives of a class of participants and beneficiaries of the Allegheny Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan v. ATI Inc., The Allegheny Technologies Incorporated Pension Plan Administrative Committee, State Street Global Advisors Trust Co., and John Does 1-5 (Case No. 2:24-cv-01109) and (2) J ohn Souza and Karen Souza, individually and as representatives on behalf of a class of similarly situated persons v. ATI Inc. and State Street Global Advisors Trust Co. (Case No. 2:24-cv-01214) , both of which are filed in federal district court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. These lawsuits, which were consolidated in late 2024, assert various claims associated with the Company’s October 2023 purchase of group annuity contracts to transfer a portion of its U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan obligations to Athene Annuity and Life Company and Athene Annuity & Life Assurance of New York. The Company filed a Motion to Dismiss the consolidated claims on January 27, 2025, and briefing on the Motion has been completed. The Company disputes and intends to vigorously defend against these claims, but given the preliminary nature of these matters, cannot predict their outcome or estimate any range of reasonably possible loss at this time.
