Management Commentary
Eddie Lehner, Ryerson’s President, Chief Executive Officer & Director, said, “I want to thank all of my Ryerson teammates for continuing to foster a safe and productive environment as we continue operationalizing following a historical capex investment cycle for the company. As our CFO, Jim Claussen, commented to me recently, “we are remodeling the house while living in it during monsoon season,” and in my letter to shareholders, I noted that we are curing a capex investment deficit going back more than thirty years. As we have discussed over the past three-plus years, after paying off Ryerson’s high-yield debt in 2022, we moved to our next phase of modernizing and optimizing our service center network and bringing to market our next-generation operating model. Now as we move further along the completion curve, we are seeing growing pains dissipate, giving way to meaningful proof-points that our efforts should pay-off for all Ryerson stakeholders in the months and years to come. When drilling down into first quarter 2025 results, we realized improved plant productivity benchmarks, excellent working capital management, and cost controls in place and functioning as intended. We also realized market share growth in the quarter whereby strong spot-transactional business offset slow OEM contract business and OEM contract price lag effects. In summary, we’re getting better and positioning the company well for sustaining shareholder value creation even amidst near-term cyclical industry conditions that are uniquely challenging but vitally important to the long-term health of manufacturing in the U.S. and North America.”
First Quarter Results
Ryerson generated net sales of $1.14 billion in the first quarter of 2025, an increase of 12.7% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, and within our guidance. Revenue performance during the quarter was influenced by strong volume increases and market share gains across our transactional business partially offset by weaker-than-expected demand among larger program accounts as buying decisions and project investments were soft in the quarter.
Gross margin contracted sequentially by 100 basis points to 18.0% in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 19.0% in the fourth quarter of 2024, driven by an increase in cost of goods sold outpacing the increase in average selling prices for our product mix. Additionally, due to the rising commodity price environment, increasing inventory values resulted in a LIFO expense of $6.8 million. Excluding the impact of LIFO, gross margin expanded 220 basis points to 18.6% in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 16.4% in the fourth quarter.
Warehousing, delivery, selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 7.2%, or $13.6 million, to $202.1 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $188.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Increased expenses in the current quarter, compared to the prior quarter, were largely driven by personnel-related expenses due to higher incentive compensation. Additionally, operating expenses increased over the prior quarter due to increased sales volumes in the first quarter. Increases in overall expenses compared to the prior quarter were partially offset by decreases in reorganization expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses. Compared to the prior year period, first quarter 2025 operating expenses decreased by $14.7 million, representing a successful reduction of $60 million in annualized operating expenses.
Net Loss Attributable to Ryerson Holding Corporation for the first quarter of 2025 was $5.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $4.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the previous quarter. Ryerson generated Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO of $32.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $10.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Liquidity & Debt Management
Ryerson had a use of operating cash of $41.2 million in the first quarter of 2025 due to a $102 million build in accounts receivable from higher sales in the first quarter, partially offset by lower inventory and accounts payable cash use. The Company ended the first quarter of 2025 with debt of $498 million and net debt of $464 million, a sequential increase of $30 million and $24 million, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. Ryerson’s global liquidity, composed of cash and cash equivalents and availability on its revolving credit facilities, increased to $490 million as of March 31, 2025, compared to $451 million as of December 31, 2024, due to an increase in accounts receivables.
Shareholder Return Activity
Dividends. On April 30, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.1875 per share of common stock, payable on June 18, 2025, to stockholders of record as of June 5, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, Ryerson’s quarterly dividend amounted to a cash return of approximately $6.0 million.
Share Repurchases and Authorization. Ryerson did not repurchase shares during the first quarter of 2025. As of March 31, 2025, $38.4 million remained under the existing authorization.
Outlook Commentary
For the second quarter of 2025, Ryerson expects customer shipments to be between a decrease of 1% to an increase of 1% quarter-over-quarter, reflecting tariff-related uncertainty dampening seasonal volume patterns as customers prioritize destocking. The Company
anticipates second quarter net sales to be in the range of $1.15 billion to $1.19 billion, with average selling prices increasing 3% to 4%. LIFO expense in the second quarter of 2025 is expected to be between $5 million to 7 million. We expect adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO in the range of $40 million to $45 million on lagging price margin resets and earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.07 to $0.14.

Note: EBITDA represents net income (loss) 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, pension settlement losses, benefit plan curtailment gains, 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 (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, Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), gross margin, excluding LIFO expense (income), and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), as a percentage of sales may differ from that of other companies. |

Ryerson Quarterly Release Presentation Q1 2025 Exhibit 99.2

Important Information About Ryerson Holding Corporation These materials do not constitute an offer or solicitation to purchase or sell securities of Ryerson Holding Corporation (“Ryerson” or “the Company”) or its subsidiaries and no investment decision should be made based upon the information provided herein. 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. This site also provides additional information about Ryerson. Safe Harbor Provision Certain statements made in this release 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; the impact of geopolitical events; fluctuating metal prices; our 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; the influence of a single investor group over our policies and procedures; work stoppages; obligations under certain employee retirement benefit plans; 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 most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, 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. Non-GAAP Measures Certain measures contained in these slides or the related presentation are not measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). They should not be considered a replacement for GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures appearing in these slides are identified in the footnotes. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the Appendix.
