The Company's restricted cash balance represents an imprest cash account used for the funding of employee healthcare costs. Funding of this account began during the first quarter of 2022 when the Company changed its healthcare plan administrator. The balance of restricted cash as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was $~~1.0~~0.7 million, which is included in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

The Company did not adopt any Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022. Additionally, there are no current ASUs issued, but not adopted, that are expected to have an impact on the Company.

As of January 1, 2021, the Company early adopted ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), using the modified retrospective method of transition. The standard simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments, as well as the diluted net income per share calculation. The standard also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception.

Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2021, all outstanding Convertible Notes were fully classified as a liability, there was no longer a separate equity component and the Convertible Notes no longer have a debt discount that is amortized. This resulted in a decrease of $10.6 million to additional paid-in capital and an increase of $1.1 million and $5.3 million to current convertible notes, net and non-current convertible notes, net, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 1, 2021. Additionally, retained deficit was reduced by $4.2 million in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 1, 2021 to remove amortization expense recognized in prior periods. The adoption of this standard did not have an effect on the Company’s cash flows, liquidity, or the methodology used for the earnings per share calculation. Refer to “Note 10 – Financing Arrangements” for additional information on the Convertible Notes.

Legislation related to the COVID-19 Pandemic

Due to a provision in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act, the Company was able to defer the employer share of Social Security payroll taxes for a specified time during 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company deferred $6.4 million in cash payments and recorded reserves for such deferred payroll taxes in salaries, wages and benefits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, to be paid in two equal installments. The first installment in the amount of $3.2 million was paid during the fourth quarter of 2021. The second installment is due on December 31, 2022.

The CARES Act also provided for an employee retention credit (“Employee Retention Credit”), which is a refundable tax credit against certain employment taxes. The Company qualified for the tax credit in the second and third quarters of 2020 and accrued a benefit of $2.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 related to the Employee Retention Credit in other (income) expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company filed for this credit in the second quarter of 2021 and received a portion of the proceeds from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in the amount of $0.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company received the remaining $1.8 million of cash proceeds in the first quarter of 2022.

Note 5 - Disposition of Non-Core Assets

TimkenSteel Material Services Facility

During the first quarter of 2020, management completed its previously announced plan to close the Company’s TimkenSteel Material Services (“TMS”) facility in Houston and began selling the assets at the facility.

During the first quarter of 2021, the remaining associated machinery and equipment that was classified as held for sale was fully impaired as there was no longer an expected market value for these assets. This resulted in impairment charges of $0.3 million.

The remaining $4.3 million of land and buildings associated with TMS ~~are~~were classified as assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June 30, 2022 and~~ December 31, ~~2021, as it is probable that~~2021. All of these assets ~~will be~~were sold ~~within~~during the ~~next 12 months.~~third quarter of 2022. Net cash proceeds of $2.8 million were received and a loss on sale of assets of $1.5 million was recognized on the Consolidated Statement of Operations during the third quarter of 2022.

Small-Diameter Seamless Mechanical Tubing Machinery and Equipment

In the third quarter of 2020, TimkenSteel informed customers that as of December 31, 2020 the Company would discontinue the commercial offering of specific small-diameter seamless mechanical tubing products. As a result, accelerated depreciation of $1.5 million was recognized in the first quarter of 2021 in alignment with the ramp down of this machinery and equipment. Spare parts related to this machinery and equipment of $0.5 million were also written down in the first quarter of 2021, as management determined there was no alternative use.

Harrison Melt and Casting Assets

On February 16, 2021, management announced a plan to indefinitely idle its Harrison melt and casting assets, which was completed in the first quarter of 2021. All of the Company’s melt and casting activities now take place at the Faircrest location. The Company worked collaboratively with employees, suppliers and a number of customers to ensure a well-organized and efficient transition. The Company’s rolling and finishing operations at Harrison were not impacted by this action.

The Company recognized non-cash charges of $9.5 million related to the write-down of the associated Harrison melt and casting assets in the first quarter of 2021. These charges include $7.9 million related to the impairment of the associated machinery and equipment, which is classified as impairment charges on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as well as a write-down of spare parts of $1.6 million, which is included in cost of products sold in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as management determined there was no alternative use. The Company did not incur any cash expenditures related to these charges.

TimkenSteel (Shanghai) Corporation Limited

On March 31, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which Daido Steel (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. agreed to acquire all of the Company’s ownership interest in TimkenSteel (Shanghai) Corporation Limited in an all-cash transaction. The sale closed on July 30, 2021 and net cash proceeds of $6.2 million were received in the third quarter of 2021. As a result of this transaction, a loss on sale of consolidated subsidiary of $1.1 million was recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the third quarter of 2021. TimkenSteel’s consolidated financial statements include activity for TimkenSteel (Shanghai) Corporation Limited through July 30, 2021.

Non-service related pension and other postretirement benefit income, for all years, consists primarily of the interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization components of net periodic cost.

The ~~gain from~~ remeasurement of benefit plans is due to all lump sum payments exceeding ~~or expected to exceed~~ the sum of the service cost and interest cost components of the net periodic pension cost for certain ~~plans. These~~plans, as well as the partial annuitization of the TimkenSteel Corporation Bargaining Unit Pension Plan ("Bargaining Plan"). The lump sum payments and partial annuitization constitute a partial ~~settlement,~~settlements, which ~~is a~~are significant ~~event~~events requiring remeasurement of both plan assets and benefit obligations.

A ~~total~~net loss of $4.8 million from the remeasurement of these benefit plans was recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2022. This loss was due to $73.6 million of investment losses on plan assets and lump sum basis losses, partially offset by a gain of $~~35.5~~68.8 million primarily driven by a decrease in the pension liability due to an increase in discount rate.

A net gain of $37.2 million from the remeasurement of these benefit plans was recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This gain was driven by a $299.9 million decrease in the pension liability primarily due to an increase in discount rate, partially offset by a loss of $262.7 million driven by investment losses on plan assets and lump sum basis losses.

A total loss of $2.7 million and $~~42.0~~2.2 million from the remeasurement of these benefit plans was recognized for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30, 2022, respectively. This gain was primarily due to a $205.5~~ ~~million and $231.1~~ ~~million decrease in the liability due to the increase in discount rates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. This is partially offset by losses of $170.0~~ ~~million and $189.1~~ ~~million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, primarily driven by investment losses on plan assets.~~

~~A total gain of $0.7~~ ~~million and $0.5~~ ~~million from the remeasurement of these benefit plans was recognized for the three and six months ended June~~September 30, 2021, respectively.

For more details on the aforementioned remeasurements, refer to “Note 11 - Retirement and Postretirement Plans.”

During the third quarter of 2022, TimkenSteel recognized an insurance recovery gain of $1.5 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations related to an unplanned outage at our Faircrest facility in November 2021. This was recorded in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as the amount was agreed upon with the insurance provider prior to the end of the third quarter of 2022. The cash proceeds were received in October 2022.

In July 2022, we had an incident at our Faircrest facility, which resulted in approximately one month of melt shop downtime. The Company anticipates a significant insurance recovery related to this incident, which could have a material effect on our financial position, cash flows and results of operations. The timing and amount of any potential recovery are uncertain at this time.

During the second quarter of 2021, TimkenSteel received a refund from the State of Ohio related to an overpayment of sales and use taxes for the period of October 1, 2016 through September 30, 2019. This resulted in a gain recognized of $2.5 million, net of related professional fees, during the second quarter of 2021.

Note 7 - Income Tax Provision

TimkenSteel’s provision for income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying the appropriate estimated annual effective tax rates to income or loss before income taxes for the period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items, including interest on prior-year tax liabilities, are recorded during the periods in which they occur.


	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,						Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2022			2021			2022			2021			2022			2021			2022			2021
Provision (benefit) for incomes taxes	$	1.5		$	1.4		$	2.4		$	1.6		$	0.7		$	0.5		$	3.1		$	2.1
Effective tax rate		2.0	%		2.5	%		2.1	%		2.4	%		(5.6	)%		1.0	%		3.1	%		1.8	%

Income tax expense for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was calculated using forecasted multi-jurisdictional annual effective tax rates to determine a blended annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate is lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, due to the reversal of valuation allowance the Company has on deferred tax assets in the U.S., as a result of current year forecasted income. This is partially offset by state, local, and foreign taxes.

Each reporting period we assess available positive and negative evidence and estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the Company’s deferred tax assets. Due to TimkenSteel’s historical operating performance in the U.S., we have been limited in our ability to rely on other subjective evidence such as projections of our future profitability.

~~Table of Contents~~

As a result, the Company maintains a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets in the U.S. and applicable foreign countries until sufficient positive evidence exists to conclude that a valuation allowance is not necessary. We will continue to assess available positive and negative evidence in future periods. The need to maintain valuation allowances against deferred tax assets in the U.S. and other affected countries may cause variability in the Company’s effective tax rate. The majority of TimkenSteel’s income taxes are derived from domestic state and local taxes.

The effective tax rate of (~~2.0~~5.6)% ~~and~~for the three months ended September 30, 2022 changed from the rate of ~~2.1~~1.0% for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2022 was lower than the rate of~~ ~~2.5% and~~ ~~2.4% for the three and six months ended June~~September 30, 2021, primarily driven by ~~decreased permanent adjustments.~~a change in profitability. The effective tax rate of 3.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 changed from the rate of 1.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily driven by increased state and local tax expenses.

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, TimkenSteel made $~~1.5~~2.2 million in state and local tax payments, $~~1.0~~2.0 million in U.S. federal payments, and $~~0.1~~0.2 million in foreign tax payments. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, TimkenSteel made $~~0.3~~0.9 million in state and local tax payments, 0no U.S. federal payments, and $~~0.5~~0.8 million in foreign tax payments.

On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ("IRA"), which, among other things, implemented a 15% minimum tax on book income of certain large corporations, a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases and several tax incentives to promote clean energy. The Company has evaluated the provisions within the IRA and at this point in time does not expect the IRA to materially impact the Company.

Note 8 - Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of common share equivalents calculated using the treasury stock method or if-converted method. For the Convertible Notes, the Company utilizes the if-converted method to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share. Under the if-converted method, the Company adjusts net earnings to add back interest expense (including amortization of debt issuance costs) recognized on the Convertible Notes and includes the number of shares potentially issuable related to the Convertible Notes in the weighted average shares outstanding. Treasury shares are excluded from the denominator in calculating both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share.

Equity-based Awards

Common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards amounted to ~~4.0~~3.9 million shares and 4.1 million shares for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, respectively. For the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share, because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Table of Contents

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, ~~0.8~~1.1 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share, primarily related to options with exercise prices above the average market price of our common shares (i.e., “underwater” options), because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The difference between the remaining 3.0 million shares assumed issued and the 0.9 million shares assumed purchased with potential proceeds were included in the denominator of the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation.

Common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards amounted to 4.7 million shares and ~~1.0~~4.9 million shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, 1.6 million shares and 2.0 million shares, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share, primarily related to options with exercise prices above the average market price of our common shares (i.e., “underwater” options), because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The difference between the remaining ~~3.2~~3.1 million shares and ~~3.1~~1.3 million shares assumed issued and the ~~1.0~~2.9 million shares and ~~0.9~~1.3 million shares assumed purchased with potential proceeds for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30, 2022, respectively, were included in the denominator of the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation.~~

~~Common share equivalents for shares issuable for equity-based awards amounted to~~ ~~4.9~~ ~~million shares and~~ ~~5.0~~ ~~million shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ ~~1.6~~ ~~million shares and~~ ~~1.9~~ million shares, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share, primarily related to options with exercise prices above the average market price of our common shares (i.e., “underwater” options), because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The difference between the remaining ~~3.3~~ ~~million shares and~~ ~~3.1~~ ~~million shares assumed issued and the~~ ~~1.4~~ ~~million shares and~~ ~~1.5~~ ~~million shares assumed purchased with potential proceeds for the three and six months ended June~~September 30, 2021, respectively, were included in the denominator of the diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation.

Convertible Notes

Common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding Convertible Notes were excluded in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as these shares would be anti-dilutive.

Common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding Convertible Notes were included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as these shares would be dilutive. Additionally, common share equivalents for shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding Convertible Notes were included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2022 and~~ 2021 as these shares would be dilutive.

~~For~~During the ~~three and six months ended June 30,~~first half of 2022, TimkenSteel repurchased $~~15.2~~ ~~million and $~~25.2 million ~~respectively,~~ of outstanding principal related to the Convertible Notes. There were no repurchases related to the Convertible Notes during the third quarter of 2022. These repurchases of Convertible Notes reduced weighted average diluted shares outstanding by ~~approximately~~ ~~1.9~~ ~~million shares and~~ ~~1.3~~2.0 million shares for the ~~three and six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Refer to “Note 10 – Financing Arrangements” for additional information on the Convertible Notes.

Amended Credit Agreement

On ~~October 15, 2019, the Company,~~September 30, 2022, TimkenSteel Corporation (the “Company”), as borrower, and certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, as subsidiary guarantors (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), entered into a ~~Third~~Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), with ~~JP Morgan~~JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), ~~Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent,~~ and the ~~other~~ lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), which further ~~amended~~amends and ~~restated~~restates the Company’s ~~Second~~existing secured Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of ~~January 26,~~October 15, 2019.

The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $400.0 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), including a $15.0 million sublimit for the issuance of commercial and standby letters of credit and a $40.0 million sublimit for swingline loans. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company is entitled, on up to two occasions and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to request increases in the commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement in the aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million, to the extent that existing or new lenders agree to provide such additional commitments. In addition to and independent of any increase described in the preceding sentence, the Company is entitled, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to request a separate “first-in, last-out” tranche (the “Incremental FILO Tranche”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million with a separate borrowing base and interest rate margins, in each case, to be agreed upon among the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing the Incremental FILO Tranche.

The availability of borrowings under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculation based upon a valuation of the eligible accounts receivable, inventory and machinery and equipment of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, each multiplied by an applicable advance rate. The availability of borrowings may be further modified by reserves established from time to time by the Administrative Agent in its permitted discretion.

13The interest rate per annum applicable to loans under the Credit Facility will be, at the Company’s option, equal to either (i) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the applicable margin or (ii) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin will be determined by a pricing grid based on the Company’s average quarterly availability. The Alternate Base Rate is subject to a 1.00% floor, and the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate is subject to 0.00% floor. In addition, the Company will pay a 0.25% per annum commitment fee on the average daily unused amount of the Credit Facility.

~~2018.~~ The Credit Facility will be used to finance working capital, capital expenditures, certain permitted acquisitions and other general corporate purposes. All of the indebtedness under the Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries, as well as any other domestic subsidiary that the Company elects to make a party to the Amended Credit Agreement, and is secured by substantially all of the personal property of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors.

The Credit Facility matures on September 30, 2027. Prior to the maturity date, amounts outstanding are required to be repaid (without reduction of the commitments thereunder) from mandatory prepayment events from the proceeds of certain asset sales, equity or debt issuances or casualty events.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain customary covenants, including covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur or suffer to exist certain liens, (ii) make investments, (iii) incur or guaranty additional indebtedness (iv) enter into consolidations, mergers, acquisitions, sale-leaseback transactions and sales of assets, (v) make distributions and other restricted payments, (vi) change the nature of its business, (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates and (viii) enter into restrictive agreements, including agreements that restrict the ability to incur liens or make distributions.

In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum specified fixed charge coverage ratio on a springing basis if minimum availability requirements as specified in the Amended Credit Agreement are not maintained.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain customary events of default. If any event of default occurs and is continuing, the Lenders would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Amended Credit Agreement, and exercise other rights and remedies.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the amount available under the Amended Credit Agreement was $~~320.2~~224.7 million, reflective of the Company’s asset borrowing base with 0no outstanding borrowings. Additionally, the Company is in compliance with all covenants outlined in the Amended Credit Agreement.

Convertible Senior Notes due 2021

The Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 were settled on June 1, 2021 with cash payment of $38.9 million and issuance of shares of 0.1 million, as most noteholders exercised the conversion option prior to the date of maturity. For details regarding method of settlement for noteholders who exercised their conversion option prior to maturity, refer to the Indenture for the Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 filed as an exhibit to a Form 8-K on May 31, 2016 and incorporated by reference in our most recent 10-K filing. The final cash payment for interest was also made to noteholders on June 1, 2021 in the amount of $1.2 million.

Convertible Senior Notes due 2025

The principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 upon issuance was $46.0 million. Transaction costs related to the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 incurred upon issuance were $1.5 million. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes. The Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 mature on December 1, 2025. The Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 are convertible at the option of holders in certain circumstances and during certain periods into the Company’s common shares, cash, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election.

The Indenture for the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 provides that notes will become convertible during a quarter when the share price for 20 trading days during the final 30 trading days of the immediately preceding quarter was greater than 130% of the conversion price. This criterion was met during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 and as such the notes can be converted at the option of the holders beginning ~~July~~October 1 through ~~September 30,~~December 31, 2022. Whether the notes will be convertible following such period will depend on if this criterion, or another conversion condition, is met in the future. As such, the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 are classified as a current liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. This criterion was also met as of December 31, 2021. To date, no holders have elected to convert their notes during any optional conversion periods.

For details regarding all conversion mechanics and methods of settlement, refer to the Indenture for the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 filed as an exhibit to a Form 8-K on December 15, 2020 and incorporated by reference in our most recent 10-K filing.

The fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025, which falls within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as defined by applicable accounting guidance, is based on a valuation model primarily using observable market inputs and requires a recurring fair value measurement on a quarterly basis.

TimkenSteel’s Credit Facility is variable-rate debt. As such, any outstanding carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value as interest rates on these borrowings approximate current market rates. This valuation falls within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and is based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly. There were 0no outstanding borrowings on the Credit Facility as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Plan Amendments and Updates

~~TimkenSteel Corporation~~ Bargaining ~~Unit Pension~~ Plan ~~("Bargaining Plan")~~

On October 29, 2021, the United Steelworkers ("USW") Local 1123 voted to ratify a new four-year contract (the “Contract”). The Contract is in effect until September 27, 2025 and resulted in several changes to the Bargaining Plan which increased the pension liability by $14.2 million in 2021. These plan amendments were recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) in 2021 and have begun to be amortized as part of the pension net periodic benefit cost in the first quarter of 2022. The primary change that drove the increase in the pension liability was the addition of a full lump sum form of payment for participants commencing benefits on or after January 1, 2022. In addition, the plan is now closed to new entrants effective January 1, 2022.

The timing and amount of future required pension contributions is significantly affected by asset returns and actuarial assumptions. Plan asset losses inthrough the ~~first half~~third quarter of 2022, combined with current actuarial assumptions, have resulted in potentially accelerated timing of future required pension contributions to as early as 2024. Required future pension contribution timing and amounts are subject to significant change based on future investment performance, Company estimates and actuarial assumptions, as well as current funding laws.

TimkenSteel Corporation Retirement Plan ("Salaried Plan")

During the fourth quarter of 2021, termination of the Salaried Plan was approved by the TimkenSteel Board of Directors. Participants were notified in January 2022 and the plan was terminated effective March 31, 2022, subject to regulatory approval. The purchase of an annuity from an insurance company is expected to occur in 2023, after which time the insurance company selected will be responsible for all participant benefit payments.

The Bargaining Plan, Salaried Plan, and Supplemental Plan have a provision that permits employees to elect to receive their pension benefits in a lump sum upon retirement. The Company's accounting policy is to recognize settlements during the quarter in which it is projected that the costs of all settlements during the year will be greater than the sum of the service cost and intertest cost components.

In the first quarter of 2022, the cumulative cost of all lump sum payments exceeded this threshold for the Supplemental Plan. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2022, the cumulative costs of all lump sum payments were projected to exceed this threshold during 2022 for the Salaried Plan. These costs did ultimately exceed this threshold for the Salaried Plan during the second quarter of 2022. Also, during the second quarter of 2022, the cumulative costs of all lump sum payments were projected to exceed this threshold in 2022 for the Bargaining Plan. These costs did ultimately exceed this threshold for the Bargaining Plan during the third quarter of 2022.

These payments constitute a partial settlement, which is a significant event requiring remeasurement of both plan assets and benefit obligations. As a result, the Company completed a full remeasurement of its pension obligations and plan assets associated with the Supplemental Plan during the first quarter of 2022. No further remeasurement was required in the second ~~quarter~~or third quarters of 2022 or is expected for the remainder of 2022 related to the Supplemental Plan, as no further lump sum payments have been made or are expected to be made during the year. The Salaried Plan's pension obligations and plan assets were remeasured during the first ~~and second~~three quarters of 2022, as lump sum payments are ongoing throughout the year. We also completed a full remeasurement of the Bargaining Plan's pension obligations and plan assets during the second ~~quarter~~and third quarters of 2022. ~~The Company expects to complete a full remeasurement of the Bargaining and Salaried plans for the remainder of the year.~~

A full remeasurement of the pension obligations and plan assets associated with the Salaried Plan was also completed throughout each quarter of 2021.

Note 12 – Stock-Based Compensation

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 the Board of Directors granted 339,453 time-based restricted stock units and 178,467 performance-based restricted stock units, which relates to the annual grant to our employees and Board of Directors.

Time-based restricted stock units are issued with the fair value equal to the closing market price of TimkenSteel common shares on the date of grant. These restricted stock units do not have any performance conditions for vesting. Expense is recognized over the service period, adjusted for any forfeitures that ~~should~~ occur during the vesting period. The weighted average fair value of the restricted stock units granted during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was $18.13 per share.

~~Table of Contents~~

Performance-based restricted stock units issued in 2022 vest based on achievement of a total shareholder return (“TSR”) metric. The TSR metric is considered a market condition, which requires TimkenSteel to reflect it in the fair value on grant date using an advanced option-pricing model. The fair value of each performance share was therefore determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model, a generally accepted lattice pricing model under ASC 718 – Stock-based Compensation. The Monte Carlo valuation model, among other factors, uses commonly-accepted economic theory underlying all valuation models, estimates fair value using simulations of future share prices based on stock price behavior and considers the correlation of peer company returns in determining fair value. The fair value of the performance-based restricted stock units granted during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was $25.04 per share.

TimkenSteel recognized stock-based compensation expense of $2.2 million and $~~4.3~~6.5 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, compared to $~~1.8~~1.9 million and $~~3.6~~5.5 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. Future stock-based compensation expense related to the unvested portion of all awards is approximately $~~15.9~~13.6 million. The future expense is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting periods through 2025.

Note 14 – Contingencies

TimkenSteel has a number of loss exposures incurred in the ordinary course of business, such as environmental claims, product warranty claims, employee-related matters, and other litigation. Establishing loss reserves for these matters requires management’s estimate and judgment regarding risk exposure and ultimate liability or realization. These loss reserves are reviewed periodically and adjustments are made to reflect the most recent facts and circumstances. Accruals related to environmental claims represent management’s best estimate of the fees and costs associated with these claims. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of such claims, management believes that their ultimate dispositions should not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, TimkenSteel had a $~~0.8~~0.6 million and a $0.3 million contingency reserve, respectively, related to loss exposures incurred in the ordinary course of business.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(dollars in millions, except per share data)

Business Overview

We manufacture alloy steel, as well as carbon and micro-alloy steel, with an annual melt capacity of approximately 1.2 million tons and shipment capacity of approximately 0.9 million tons. Our portfolio includes special bar quality (“SBQ”) bars, seamless mechanical tubing (“tubes”), manufactured components such as precision steel components, and billets. Additionally, we manage raw material recycling programs, which are used internally as a feeder system for our melt operations and allow us to sell scrap not used in our operations to third parties. Our products and solutions are used in a diverse range of demanding applications in the following market sectors: automotive; oil and gas; industrial equipment; mining; construction; rail; defense; heavy truck; agriculture; power generation; and oil country tubular goods (“OCTG”).

SBQ steel is made to restrictive chemical compositions and high internal purity levels and is used in critical mechanical applications. We make these products from nearly 100% recycled steel, using our expertise in raw materials to create high-quality steel products. We focus on creating tailored products for our respective end-market sectors. Our engineers are experts in both materials and applications, so we can work closely with each customer to deliver flexible solutions related to our products as well as to their applications and supply chains.

The SBQ bar, tube, and billet production processes take place at our Canton, Ohio manufacturing location. This location accounts for all of the SBQ bars, seamless mechanical tubes and billets we produce and includes three manufacturing facilities: the Faircrest, Harrison, and Gambrinus facilities. Our production of manufactured components takes place at two downstream manufacturing facilities: Tryon Peak (Columbus, North Carolina) and St. Clair (Eaton, Ohio). Many of the production processes are integrated, and the manufacturing facilities produce products that are sold in all of our market sectors. As a result, investments in our facilities and resource allocation decisions affecting our operations are designed to benefit the overall business, not any specific aspect of the business.

The lead time for our products varies based on product type and specifications. As of the date of this filing, lead times for SBQ bars and tubes ~~are through~~extend into the ~~end~~first quarter of ~~the year.~~2023.

OnIn July ~~26,~~ 2022, we had an incident at our Faircrest facility, which ~~has~~ resulted in ~~unexpected downtime for~~approximately one month of melt shop downtime. The Company anticipates a significant insurance recovery related to this incident, which could have a material effect on our ~~melt activities~~financial position, cash flows and results of operations. The timing and amount of any potential recovery are uncertain at this location. We do not expect a significant shipment impact in the near term given inventories on hand. We are targeting mid-August to complete the necessary repairs and expect to resume melt activities shortly thereafter. As of the date of this filing, we are unable to estimate the full impact this incident will have on our business or results of operations, including but not limited to, incremental capital expenditures, manufacturing costs, and expenses related to employee matters.time.

We conduct our business activities and report financial results as one business segment. The presentation of financial results as one reportable segment is consistent with the way we operate our business and is consistent with the manner in which the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") evaluates performance and makes resource and operating decisions for the business as described above. Furthermore, the Company notes that monitoring financial results as one reportable segment helps the CODM manage costs on a consolidated basis, consistent with the integrated nature of our operations.

Impact of Raw Material Prices

In the ordinary course of business, we are exposed to the volatility of the costs of our raw materials. For example, the current Russia-Ukraine conflict could exacerbate inflationary pressures throughout the global economy and lead to potential market disruptions, such as significant volatility in commodity prices and supply chain disruptions. Although our business has not been materially impacted by this conflict to date, it is difficult to predict the extent to which our operations, or those of our suppliers, will be impacted in the future.

Whenever possible, we manage our exposure to commodity risks primarily through the use of supplier pricing agreements that enable us to establish the purchase prices for certain inputs that are used in our manufacturing process. We also utilize a raw material and natural gas surcharge mechanism when pricing products to our customers.

There are two components of our raw material surcharge. One component is related to the scrap metal content in our finished product and is based on the published No. 1 busheling scrap index. The other component is related to alloy material content in our finished product and is based on published prices for nickel, molybdenum, vanadium, chromium, and manganese. The natural gas surcharge is only applicable when the price of natural gas exceeds a certain dollar amount per MMBtu.

Our surcharge mechanisms are designed to mitigate the impact of increases or decreases in raw material costs, although generally with a lag effect. This timing effect can result in raw material spread whereby costs can be over- or under-recovered in certain periods. While the surcharge generally protects gross profit, it has the effect of diluting gross margin as a percent of sales. We present the raw material spread impact on gross profit for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 compared to the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 in the gross profit charts included within the results of operations section below.

The decrease in net sales was primarily driven by lower volumes and a decrease in surcharges, partially offset by favorable price/mix. Customer demand remained solid throughout the third quarter of 2022; however, shipments were negatively impacted by the availability of inventory for shipment as a result of the July 2022 melt shop incident. This resulted in lower volumes of 54 thousand ship tons or a net sales decrease of $57.6 million. The decrease in surcharges of $21.0 million was primarily due to lower market prices for scrap. These decreases were partially offset by favorable price/mix of $51.7 million, due to higher base prices across all end-market sectors, as well as an improvement of sales mix within all end-market sectors. Excluding surcharges, net sales decreased $5.9 million or 2.6%.

SG&A expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $0.7 million, or 3.3% compared with the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily due to higher spend on professional services, driven by the ongoing information technology transformation project. This was partially offset by lower employee expense as a result of prior restructuring actions.

~~SG&A expense for the six months ended June~~September 30, 2022 decreased by ~~$0.3~~$3.7 million, or ~~0.7%~~18.6%, and $4.0 million, or 6.6%, respectively, compared with the ~~six months ended June 30,~~same periods in 2021. This decrease was primarily due to lower variable compensation expense, as well as lower employee expense as a result of prior restructuring actions. This was partially offset by higher spend on professional services, driven by the ongoing information technology transformation project.

Restructuring Charges

Over the past several years, TimkenSteel has made numerous organizational changes to enhance profitable and sustainable growth. These company-wide actions included the restructuring of its business support functions, the reduction of management layers throughout the organization and other domestic and international actions to further improve the Company’s overall cost structure. ~~Restructuring~~There were no restructuring charges ~~totaled $0.4 million and $0.8 million for~~incurred during the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 compared with restructuring charges of ~~$1.0 million and $1.6~~$0.4 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Net Sales, Excluding Surcharges

The tables below present net sales by end-market sector, adjusted to exclude surcharges, which represents a financial measure that has not been determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). We believe presenting net sales by end-market sector, both on a gross basis and on a per ton basis, adjusted to exclude raw material and natural gas surcharges, provides additional insight into key drivers of net sales such as base price and product mix. Due to the fact that the surcharge mechanism can introduce volatility to our net sales, net sales adjusted to exclude surcharges provides management and investors clarity of our core pricing and results. Presenting net sales by end-market sector, adjusted to exclude surcharges including on a per ton basis, allows management and investors to better analyze key market indicators and trends and allows for enhanced comparison between our end-market sectors.

When surcharges are included in a customer agreement and are applicable (i.e., reach the threshold amount), based on the terms outlined in the respective agreement, surcharges are then included as separate line items on a customer’s invoice. These additional surcharge line items adjust base prices to match cost fluctuations due to market conditions. Each month, the company will post on the surcharges page of its external website, as well as our customer portal, the scrap, alloy, and natural gas surcharges that will be applied (as a separate line item) to invoices dated in the following month (based upon shipment volumes in the following month). All surcharges invoiced are included in GAAP net sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Amended Credit Agreement

On ~~October 15, 2019,~~September 30, 2022, TimkenSteel Corporation (the “Company”), as borrower, and certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, as subsidiary guarantors (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), entered into a ~~Third~~Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), with ~~JP Morgan~~JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent ~~Bank of America, N.A.~~(the “Administrative Agent”), ~~as syndication agent,~~ and the ~~other~~ lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), which further ~~amended~~amends and ~~restated~~restates the Company’s ~~Second~~existing secured Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of ~~January 26, 2018.~~October 15, 2019.

~~For additional details regarding~~The Amended Credit Agreement extended the maturity date of the asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) from October 2024 to September 2027. Following the amendment, Credit Facility capacity remained at $400.0 million. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, ~~please refer~~the interest rate to be paid on any borrowings under the Credit Facility is now based on a two-tiered schedule rather than a three-tiered schedule with applicable rates decreasing by 25 basis points, references to LIBOR rates have been updated with references to SOFR rates, the advance rate on investment-grade eligible accounts receivable has been increased from 85% to 90%, and there has been an improvement in the springing fixed charge coverage ratio from 1.1x to 1.0x. The Credit Facility remains undrawn at this time.

Refer to “Note ~~14 -~~10- Financing Arrangements” in the ~~Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K~~Notes to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for ~~the year ended December 31, 2021.~~additional information.

Convertible Notes

In May 2016, the Company issued $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2021, plus an additional $11.3 million principal amount to cover over-allotments.

In December 2020, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements with a limited number of holders of the Company’s then outstanding Convertible Senior Notes due 2021. Pursuant to the exchange agreements, the Company exchanged $46.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 for $46.0 million aggregate principal amount of its new Convertible Senior Notes due 2025. The Company did not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025.

The remaining Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 matured on June 1, 2021 and were settled with a combination of cash of $38.9 million and 0.1 million shares, as most noteholders exercised their conversion option prior to maturity. The final cash payment for interest was also made to noteholders on June 1, 2021 in the amount of $1.2 million.

The Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 bear cash interest at a rate of 6.0% per year, payable semiannually on June 1 and December 1, beginning on June 1, 2021. The Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 will mature on December 1, 2025, unless earlier repurchased or converted. The net amount of this exchange was $44.5 million, after deducting the initial underwriters’ fees and paying other transaction costs.

The Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 are convertible at the option of holders in certain circumstances and during certain periods into the Company’s common shares, cash, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The Indenture for the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 provides that notes will become convertible during a quarter when the share price for 20 trading days during the final 30 trading days of the immediately preceding quarter was greater than 130% of the conversion price. This criterion was met during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 and as such the notes can be converted at the option of the holders beginning ~~July~~October 1 through ~~September 30,~~December 31, 2022. Whether the notes will be convertible following such period will depend on if this criterion, or another conversion condition, is met in the future. To date, no holders have elected to convert their notes during any optional conversion periods.

In the first half of 2022, TimkenSteel repurchased a total of $25.2 million aggregate principal amount of its Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025. Total cash paid to noteholders was $67.6 million. ~~In the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, a~~A loss on extinguishment of debt was recognized of ~~$26.0 million and~~ $43.0 million, ~~respectively,~~ including a charge of ~~$0.4 million and~~ $0.6 million, ~~respectively,~~ for unamortized debt issuance costs related to the portion of debt extinguished, as well as the related transaction costs. There were no repurchases related to the Convertible Notes during the third quarter of 2022.

For additional details regarding the Convertible Notes please refer to “Note 14 - Financing Arrangements” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Additional Liquidity Considerations

The following represents a summary of key liquidity measures under the Amended Credit Agreement as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Total liquidity	$	558.7		$	510.7		$	487.2		$	510.7

(1) As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, TimkenSteel had less than $400 million in collateral assets to borrow against.

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and available borrowing capacity under our Amended Credit Agreement. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, taking into account our view of mobile, industrial, and energy market demand for our products, and our 2022 operating and long-range plan, we believe that our cash balance as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, projected cash generated from operations, and borrowings available under the Amended Credit Agreement, will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital needs, capital expenditures and other liquidity requirements associated with our operations, including servicing our debt and pension and postretirement benefit obligations, for at least the next twelve months.

To the extent our liquidity needs prove to be greater than expected or cash generated from operations is less than anticipated, and cash on hand or credit availability is insufficient, we would seek additional financing to provide additional liquidity. We regularly evaluate our potential access to the equity and debt capital markets as sources of liquidity and we believe additional financing would likely be available if necessary, although we can make no assurance as to the form or terms of any such financing.

We continue to evaluate the best use of our liquidity which would allow us to invest in profitable growth, maintain a strong balance sheet, and return capital to shareholders. We are currently anticipating capital expenditures to be approximately ~~$35~~$25 million to $30 million in 2022.

During the first half of 2022, we privately negotiated ~~the~~ early ~~repurchase~~repurchases of $25.2 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025. In addition to reducing outstanding debt and generating $1.5 million of annual interest savings, the repurchases of convertible notes ~~repurchase will have~~reduced diluted shares outstanding for the ~~effect of reducing~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 by 2.0 million shares and on a go-forward basis, reduced diluted shares outstanding by ~~a total of approximately~~ 3.2 million ~~shares beginning in~~shares. There were no repurchases related to the Convertible Notes during the third quarter of 2022.

On December 20, 2021, TimkenSteel announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $50.0 million of its outstanding common shares. Our share repurchase program is intended to return capital to shareholders while also offsetting dilution from annual equity compensation awards. The Company may utilize various methods to repurchase shares, which could include open market repurchases, including repurchases through Rule 10b5-1 plans, privately-negotiated transactions or by other means. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the program will depend on a number of factors, including the price of the Company's shares, general market and economic conditions, capital needs and other factors. The share repurchase program does not require the Company to acquire any dollar amount or number of shares and may be modified, suspended, extended or terminated by the Company at any time without prior notice. For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company repurchased approximately ~~0.4~~1.3 million common shares in the open market at an aggregate cost of ~~$9.3~~$19.7 million, which equates to an average repurchase price of ~~$21.20~~$15.72 per share. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company repurchased approximately ~~0.6~~1.9 million common shares in the open market at an aggregate cost of ~~$12.7~~$32.4 million, which equates to an average repurchase price of ~~$20.94~~$17.42 per share. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had a balance of ~~$37.3~~$17.6 million remaining on its previously approved $50.0 million share repurchase program.

In ~~July~~October 2022, the Company repurchased approximately ~~0.2~~0.7 million common shares in the open market at an aggregate cost of ~~$3.3~~$12.1 million, which equates to an average repurchase price of ~~$17.72~~$16.07 per share. As of ~~July~~October 31, 2022, the Company had ~~$34.0~~$5.5 million remaining under its previously approved $50.0 million share repurchase program.

Cash Flows

The following table reflects the major categories of cash flows for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021. For additional details, please refer to the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this quarterly report.


	Six Months Ended June 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was ~~$64.0~~$110.8 million compared to net cash provided of ~~$52.4~~$106.2 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities is ~~due to an increase~~primarily driven by a reduction in ~~profitability during the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021.~~working capital. This is partially offset by ~~an increased use of cash~~a decrease in profitability for ~~working capital purposes and~~the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, as well as an increase in the cash payment related to variable compensation earned in 2021 compared to 2020, which is paid out in the first quarter of the subsequent year.

Investing activities

Net cash used by investing activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was ~~$9.9~~$12.7 million compared to net cash used of ~~$3.8~~$0.9 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The change was due to higher capital expenditures infor the ~~first half of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the ~~first half~~same period in 2021, as well as increased cash provided in the third quarter of 2021 from the sale of TimkenSteel (Shanghai) Corporation Limited. This is partially offset by higher proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

Financing activities

Net cash used by financing activities for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was ~~$74.2~~$94.5 million compared to net cash used of ~~$36.2~~$36.1 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021. The change was primarily ~~due to the increased repayments on convertible notes in the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021,~~ due to early repurchases of a portion of the Convertible

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. We review our critical accounting policies throughout the year.

For a detailed discussion of the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to the section “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” within "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

New Accounting Guidance

See “Note 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the Notes to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition

TimkenSteel recognizes revenue from contracts at a point in time when it has satisfied its performance obligation and the customer obtains control of the goods, at the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive for those goods.

Substantially all performance obligations arise from the sale of manufactured steel products. The Company receives and acknowledges purchase orders from its customers, which define the quantity, pricing, payment and other applicable terms and conditions. In some cases, the Company receives a blanket purchase order from its customer, which includes pricing, payment and other terms and conditions, with quantities defined at the time the customer issues periodic releases from the blanket purchase order.

Transfer of control and revenue recognition for substantially all the Company’s sales occur upon shipment or delivery of the product, which is when title, ownership, and risk of loss pass to the customer and is based on the applicable customer shipping terms.

The Company invoices its customers at the time of title transfer. Payment terms are generally 30 days from the invoice date. Invoiced amounts are usually inclusive of shipping and handling activities incurred. Shipping and handling activities billed are included in net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The related costs incurred by the Company for the delivery of goods are classified as cost of products sold in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Certain contracts contain variable consideration, which primarily consists of rebates that are accounted for in net sales and accrued based on the estimated probability of the requirements being met.

Sales returns and allowances are treated as a reduction to net sales and are provided for primarily based on historical experience. These reserves also capture any potential warranty claims, which normally result in returned or replaced product.

Benefit Plans

TimkenSteel recognizes an overfunded status or underfunded status (e.g., the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligations) as either an asset or a liability for its defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognizes actuarial gains and losses immediately through net periodic benefit cost in the Consolidated Statements of Operations upon the annual remeasurement at December 31, or on an interim basis as triggering events warrant remeasurement. An example of a potential triggering event would be settlements. The Company’s accounting policy is to recognize settlements during the quarter in which it is projected that the costs of all settlements during the year will be greater than the sum of the service cost and interest cost components. In addition, the Company uses fair value to account for the value of plan assets.

After remeasurement of certain pension plans during the first ~~half~~three quarters of 2022, the aggregate net periodic pension expense for the ~~second half~~fourth quarter of 2022 is currently forecasted to be ~~$3.0~~$3.8 million, resulting in total 2022 net periodic pension ~~income~~expense now estimated at ~~$2.3~~$0.1 million, compared to the estimated net periodic pension income at December 31, 2021 of $11.5 million. This estimate is based on an updated weighted average discount rate of ~~4.63%~~5.14% as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 for all of the pension benefit plans, which reflects updated discount rates for the plans that have been remeasured during 2022. Actual asset returns have been recognized for the plans that were remeasured

throughout ~~the first half of~~ 2022. For more details on the pension plan remeasurements, refer to "Note 6 - Other (Income) Expense, net" and “Note 11 - Retirement and Postretirement Plans” in the Notes to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the weighted average expected return on assets remains at 5.96%, consistent with the December 31, 2021 assumption. Actual cost is dependent on various other factors related to the employees covered by these plans, as well as subsequent remeasurement of the ~~Bargaining and Salaried Plans in the second half of 2022, due to lump sum payments and partial annuitization of the Bargaining Plan, as discussed further below.~~pension plans at December 31, 2022.

~~Table of Contents~~

Other postretirement benefit income for 2022 is still forecasted to be $5.0 million for the full year, which is unchanged from the December 31, 2021 forecast. This estimate is based on an unchanged weighted average discount rate of 3.00%, as well as an unchanged weighted average expected return on assets of 4.75%. Actual cost is dependent on various other factors related to the employees covered by these plans.

Adjustments to our actuarial assumptions for both pension and postretirement plans could have a material adverse impact on our operating results.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our borrowings include both fixed and variable-rate debt. The ~~variable~~variable-rate debt consists principally of borrowings under our Credit Agreement. We are exposed to the risk of rising interest rates to the extent we fund our operations with these variable-rate borrowings. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we have $20.8 million of aggregate debt outstanding. None of our outstanding debt as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 has variable interest rates, thus a rise in interest rates would not impact our interest expense at this point in time.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currencies may impact our earnings. Geographically, our sales are primarily made to customers in the United States. Currency fluctuations could impact us to the extent they impact the currency or the price of raw materials in foreign countries in which our competitors operate or have significant sales.

Commodity Price Risk

In the ordinary course of business, we are exposed to market risk with respect to commodity price fluctuations, primarily related to our purchases of raw materials and energy, principally scrap steel, other ferrous and non-ferrous metals, alloys, natural gas and electricity. Additionally, the current Russia-Ukraine conflict could also exacerbate inflationary pressures throughout the global economy and lead to potential market disruptions, such as significant volatility in commodity prices and supply chain disruptions. Although our business has not been materially impacted by this conflict to date, it is difficult to predict the extent to which our operations, or those of our suppliers, will be impacted in the future.

Whenever possible, we manage our exposure to commodity risks primarily through the use of supplier pricing agreements that enable us to establish the purchase prices for certain inputs that are used in our manufacturing business. We utilize a raw material surcharge as a component of pricing steel to pass through the cost increases of scrap, alloys and other raw materials, as well as natural gas. From time to time, we may use financial instruments to hedge a portion of our exposure to commodity price risk. In periods of stable demand for our products, the surcharge mechanism has worked effectively to reduce the normal time lag in passing through higher raw material costs so that we can maintain our gross margins. When demand and cost of raw materials are lower, however, the surcharge impacts sales prices to a lesser extent.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(1) On December 20, 2021, TimkenSteel announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $50.0 million of its outstanding common shares. All of the shares purchased during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 were purchased as of part of this share repurchase program. The share repurchase program does not require the Company to acquire any dollar amount or number of shares and does not have an expiration date.

(2) The Company may utilize various methods to repurchase shares, which could include open market repurchases, including repurchases through Rule 10b5-1 plans, privately-negotiated transactions or by other means. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the program will depend on a number of factors, including the price of the Company's shares, general market and economic conditions, capital needs and other factors.

(3) The average price paid per share excludes any broker commissions.
