Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Beginning with the first quarter of 2022, Materion Corporation (the “Company”) began using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") as the main operating income metric used by management to measure financial performance of the Company and each segment. The Company made this change because recent acquisitions have resulted in an increased amount of purchase accounting amortization expense, which in turn has affected the comparability of results across periods and versus other companies. Management believes EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is useful to investors as it is representative of the Company's performance and that it is appropriate to compare GAAP net income to consolidated EBITDA. The primary operating income metric used by management to measure financial performance of the Company and each segment prior to the first quarter of 2022 was earnings before interest and taxes. A copy of the EBITDA results for the Company for certain periods is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. Exhibit 99.1 contains EBITDA results for each quarter of 2021, 2020 and 2019, and the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

This information shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Summary of Net Income, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA

(Unaudited)

Beginning with the first quarter of 2022, Materion Corporation (the “Company”) began using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization ("EBITDA") as the main operating income metric used by management to measure financial performance of the Company and each segment. The Company made this change because recent acquisitions have resulted in an increased amount of purchase accounting amortization expense, which in turn has affected the comparability of results across periods and versus other companies. Management believes EBITDA is useful to investors as it better represents the Company's performance due to recent acquisitions in which significant intangible assets were acquired that are now being amortized. Management also utilizes adjusted EBITDA to measure financial performance of the Company and each segment. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding certain special items such as non-cash impairment charges, mine development costs, forfeiture of certain non-cash stock-based compensation, non-cash inventory adjustments, cost reduction initiatives (i.e., severance), COVID-19 related costs, merger and acquisition costs, foreign currency hedge gains, legacy legal and environmental costs, and certain discrete income tax items from the applicable GAAP financial measure. Internally, management reviews the results of operations without the impact of these costs in order to assess the profitability from ongoing activities and is used in making decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance. We are providing adjusted EBITDA because we believe it will assist investors in analyzing our financial results and, when viewed in conjunction with the GAAP results, provide a more comprehensive understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations, as it is representative of the Company's core operations.

Reconciliations of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found on pages 4 to 11.

Reconciliation of Net sales to Value-Added sales, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP Net Income, and EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, to Net Income as a Percentage of Sales:

(Unaudited)

The following are reconciliations of the value-added sales, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The cost of gold, silver, platinum, palladium, copper, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, rhenium, and osmium is passed through to customers and, therefore, the trends and comparisons of net sales are affected by movements in the market price of these metals. Internally, management also reviews net sales on a value-added basis. Value-added sales is a non-GAAP financial measure that deducts the value of the pass-through metals sold from net sales. Value-added sales allows management to assess the impact of differences in net sales between periods or segments and analyze the resulting margins and profitability without the distortion of the movements in pass-through metal prices. The dollar amount of gross margin and operating profit is not affected by the value-added sales calculation. The Company sells other metals and materials that are not considered direct pass throughs, and these costs are not deducted from net sales to calculate value-added sales.

The Company’s pricing policy is to pass the cost of these metals on to customers in order to mitigate the impact of price volatility on the Company’s results from operations. Value-added information is being presented since changes in metal prices may not directly impact profitability. It is the Company’s intent to allow users of the financial statements to review sales with and without the impact of the pass-through metals.
