 A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measure is included below in this news release.

Management Commentary
Eddie Lehner, Ryerson's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I want to thank all of my Ryerson teammates for their continued efforts creating and sustaining a safe and productive operating environment. Additionally, I want to thank our customers for affording us the opportunity to contribute as an integral part of their supply-chains, which we never take for granted. Counter-cyclical conditions that emerged in the second quarter of 2023 continued to impact our industry during the third quarter, highlighted by shifting consumer spending patterns, higher interest rates, tightening credit conditions, decelerating manufacturing activity, as well as global economic slowing particularly in Europe and China. Prices across our product mix decreased during the quarter, while lower transactional customer quoting activity and reduced OEM customer order sizes put downward pressure on average selling prices and compressed gross margins. Despite unfavorable market conditions, we generated cash from operations and working capital release, reduced net debt, reduced costs, provided returns for shareholders, invested in growth through the acquisition of Norlen Incorporated in early October, and continued start-up activities at our new service centers in University Park, Illinois, Las Vegas, Nevada and the expansion of our service center in Shelbyville, Kentucky. While we navigated the cyclical headwinds during the quarter, we continued to improve our operating model by investing in systems technologies, expanding value-added capabilities and implementing efficiencies to position our business for long-term growth. As we look towards the fourth quarter and into 2024, our current investments in our physical and digital network position Ryerson well for both the next upturn and expected longer-term secular growth drivers in North American manufacturing activity."

Third Quarter Results
Ryerson generated net sales of $1.2 billion in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 7.2% compared to the second quarter of 2023.  Net sales during the period were influenced by sequentially lower volumes and average selling prices, which decreased 3.6% and 3.7%, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Gross margin expanded sequentially by 60 basis points to 20.0% in the third quarter of 2023, compared to 19.4% in the second quarter. Gross margins reflected LIFO income of $33.4 million, as the commodity price curves for our metals products sales mix decreased.

Excluding the impact of LIFO, gross margin contracted 140 basis points to 17.3% in the third quarter of 2023, compared to 18.7% in the second quarter. The compression in gross margins, excluding LIFO, was primarily driven by a decrease in prices across our product mix coupled with continued above normal inventories in the channel that put downward pressure on average selling prices. Warehousing, delivery, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 4.7% to $193.0 million in the third quarter, compared to $202.6 million in the second quarter, primarily driven by lower variable expenses, lower accruals for personnel related expenses, and lower professional fees, partially offset by higher reorganization expenses related to an ERP systems implementation and start-up costs associated with the University Park service center.

Net income attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation for the third quarter of 2023 was $35.0 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, compared to net income of $37.6 million, or $1.06 per diluted share in the previous quarter. Ryerson generated Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO of $45.0 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to the second quarter Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO of $70.1 million.

Liquidity & Debt Management
Ryerson generated $79.3 million of cash from operations in the third quarter of 2023, supported by net income attributable to Ryerson Holding of $35.0 million and working capital release of $15.1 million. The Company ended the third quarter of 2023 with $366 million of debt and $329 million of net debt, a sequential decrease of $30 million and $37 million, respectively, compared to the second quarter. Ryerson's leverage ratio as of the third quarter was 1.4x, which remains unchanged from the previous quarter and within the Company's target leverage range. Ryerson's global liquidity, composed of cash and cash equivalents and availability on its revolving credit facilities, was $807 million as of September 30, 2023.

Shareholder Return Activity

Dividends. During the third quarter of 2023, Ryerson paid a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.1825 per share, amounting to a cash return of approximately $6.3 million. On October 30, 2023, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.1850 per share of common stock, payable on December 14, 2023, to stockholders of record as of November 30, 2023. 

Share Repurchase. Over the course of the third quarter of 2023, the Company repurchased 133,094 shares for $4.0 million in the open market. Ryerson made these repurchases in accordance with its share repurchase authorization, which allows the Company to acquire up to an aggregate amount of $100.0 million of the Company's common stock through April of 2025. As of September 30, 2023, $45.7 million of the $100.0 million remained under the existing share repurchase authorization. In total, Ryerson returned to shareholders $10.3 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Outlook Commentary
For the fourth quarter of 2023, Ryerson expects normal industry seasonal demand conditions, with customer shipments expected to decrease approximately 4% to 7%, quarter-over-quarter. The Company anticipates fourth-quarter net sales to be in the range of $1.00 to $1.15 billion, with average selling prices decreasing 3% to 5%. LIFO income in the fourth quarter of 2023 is expected to be $8 to $12 million. We expect adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO in the range of $28 million to $32 million and earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.18 to $0.22.

Note: EBITDA represents net income before interest and other expense on debt, provision for income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA gives further effect to, among other things, reorganization expenses, gain on sales of assets, 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 minus LIFO expense (income), divided by net sales. We have excluded LIFO expense 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, Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), gross margin, excluding LIFO expense, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), as a percentage of sales may differ from that of other companies.
