Constellium Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

Paris, April 26, 2023 – Constellium SE (NYSE: CSTM) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

First quarter 2023 highlights:

• Shipments of 389 thousand metric tons, down 3% compared to Q1 2022

• Revenue of €2.0 billion, down 1% compared to Q1 2022

• Value-Added Revenue (VAR) of €754 million, up 16% compared to Q1 2022

• Net income of €22 million compared to net income of €179 million in Q1 2022

• Adjusted EBITDA of €166 million, down 1% compared to Q1 2022

• Cash from Operations of €34 million and Free Cash Flow of €(34) million

• Net debt / LTM Adjusted EBITDA of 2.8x at March 31, 2023

Jean-Marc Germain, Constellium’s Chief Executive Officer said, “Our team delivered solid first quarter results on strong demand across several end markets and solid execution despite significant inflationary pressures. A&T delivered record quarterly Adjusted EBITDA, and AS&I delivered record first quarter Adjusted EBITDA. Looking across our end markets, the recovery in aerospace continued with shipments up over 50% compared to last year. Automotive demand also continued to improve with higher shipments in both rolled and extruded products. Packaging shipments were down in the quarter as demand softened, and we continued to experience weakness in certain industrial markets. Lastly, Free Cash Flow was in line with our expectations at negative €34 million and we maintained our leverage at 2.8x.”

Mr. Germain concluded, “While uncertainties persist on the macroeconomic and geopolitical fronts, we like our end market positioning and we are optimistic about our prospects for the remainder of this year and beyond. Based on our current outlook, we are raising our guidance and expect Adjusted EBITDA in the range of €650 million to €680 million and Free Cash Flow in excess of €125 million in 2023. We also remain confident in our ability to deliver on our long-term target of Adjusted EBITDA over €800 million in 2025. Our focus is on executing our strategy, driving operational performance, generating Free Cash Flow, achieving our ESG objectives and increasing shareholder value.”

Group Summary

	Q1 2023		Q1 2022		Var.
Shipments (k metric tons)		389		401		(3	)%
Revenue (€ millions)		1,956		1,979		(1	)%
VAR (€ millions)		754		652		16	%
Net income (€ millions)		22		179		n.m.
Adjusted EBITDA (€ millions)		166		167		(1	)%
Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton (€)		426		417		2	%

The difference between the sum of reported segment revenue and total group revenue includes revenue from certain non-core activities and inter-segment eliminations. The difference between the sum of reported segment Adjusted EBITDA and the Group Adjusted EBITDA is related to Holdings and Corporate.

For the first quarter of 2023, shipments of 389 thousand metric tons decreased 3% compared to the first quarter of 2022 mostly due to lower shipments in the P&ARP segment. Revenue of €2.0 billion decreased 1% compared to the first quarter of the prior year primarily due to lower metal prices mostly offset by improved price and mix. VAR of €754 million increased 16% compared to the first quarter of the prior year primarily due to improved price and mix, partially offset by unfavorable metal costs due to inflation. Net income of €22 million decreased €157 million compared to net income of €179 million in the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA of €166 million decreased 1% compared to the first quarter of last year as stronger results in our A&T and AS&I segments were more than offset by weaker results in our P&ARP segment.

2

For the first quarter of 2023, Adjusted EBITDA decreased 33% compared to the first quarter of 2022 as a result of lower shipments and higher operating costs mainly due to inflation, operating challenges at our Muscle Shoals facility and unfavorable metal costs, partially offset by improved price and mix. Shipments of 259 thousand metric tons decreased 6% compared to the first quarter of the prior year due to lower shipments of packaging and specialty rolled products, partially offset by higher shipments of automotive rolled products. Revenue of €1.0 billion decreased 12% compared to the first quarter of 2022 primarily due to lower shipments and lower metal prices, partially offset by improved price and mix.

Aerospace & Transportation (A&T)

	Q1 2023		Q1 2022		Var.
Shipments (k metric tons)		58		55		6	%
Revenue (€ millions)		452		385		17	%
Adjusted EBITDA (€ millions)		73		53		37	%
Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton (€)		1,246		961		30	%

For the first quarter of 2023, Adjusted EBITDA increased 37% compared to the first quarter of 2022 primarily due to higher shipments and improved price and mix, partially offset by higher operating costs mainly due to inflation and production increases. Shipments of 58 thousand metric tons increased 6% compared to the first quarter of the prior year on higher shipments of aerospace rolled products, partially offset by lower shipments of transportation, industry and defense (TID) rolled products. Revenue of €452 million increased 17% compared to the first quarter of 2022 primarily due to higher shipments and improved price and mix, partially offset by lower metal prices.

Automotive Structures & Industry (AS&I)

	Q1 2023		Q1 2022		Var.
Shipments (k metric tons)		72		70		3	%
Revenue (€ millions)		483		459		5	%

Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton (€)		599		520		15	%

For the first quarter of 2023, Adjusted EBITDA increased 17% compared to the first quarter of 2022 primarily due to improved price and mix partially offset by higher operating costs mainly due to inflation. Shipments of 72 thousand metric tons increased 3% compared to the first quarter of the prior year due to higher shipments of automotive extruded products, partially offset by lower other extruded product shipments. Revenue of €483 million increased 5% compared to the first quarter of 2022 primarily due to improved price and mix, partially offset by lower metal prices.

3

Net Income

For the first quarter of 2023, net income of €22 million compares to net income of €179 million in the first quarter of the prior year. The decrease in net income is primarily related to unfavorable changes in gains and losses on derivatives mostly related to our metal hedging positions and lower gross profit, partially offset by lower tax expense.

Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow was €(34) million in the first quarter of 2023 compared to €26 million in first quarter of 2022. The change was primarily due to increased capital expenditures and an unfavorable change in working capital.

Cash flows from operating activities were €34 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to cash flows from operating activities of €58 million in the first quarter of the prior year. Constellium decreased derecognized factored receivables by €4 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to an increase of €5 million in the prior year.

Cash flows used in investing activities were €68 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to cash flows used in investing activities of €32 million in the prior year.

Cash flows from financing activities were €61 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of €14 million in the prior year.

Liquidity and Net Debt

Liquidity at March 31, 2023 was €688 million, comprised of €193 million of cash and cash equivalents and €495 million available under our committed lending facilities and factoring arrangements.

Net debt was €1,907 million at March 31, 2023 compared to €1,891 million at December 31, 2022.

Outlook

Based on our current outlook, we expect Adjusted EBITDA in the range of €650 million to €680 million in 2023.

We are not able to provide a reconciliation of this Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income, the comparable GAAP measure, because certain items that are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA cannot be reasonably predicted or are not in our control. In particular, we are unable to forecast the timing or magnitude of realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments, metal lag, impairment or restructuring charges, or taxes without unreasonable efforts, and these items could significantly impact, either individually or in the aggregate, net income in the future.

(A) Metal price lag represents the financial impact of the timing difference between when aluminium prices included within Constellium’s Revenue are established and when aluminium purchase prices included in Cost of sales are established. The Group accounts for inventory using a weighted average price basis and this adjustment aims to remove the effect of volatility in LME prices. The calculation of the Group metal price lag adjustment is based on an internal standardized methodology calculated at each of Constellium’s manufacturing sites and is primarily calculated as the average value of product recorded in inventory, which approximates the spot price in the market, less the average value transferred out of inventory, which is the weighted average of the metal element of cost of sales, based on the quantity sold in the year.

Non-GAAP measures

In addition to the results reported in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), this press release includes information regarding certain financial measures which are not prepared in accordance with IFRS (“non-GAAP measures”). The non-GAAP measures used in this press release are: VAR, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA per metric ton, Free Cash Flow and Net debt. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures are presented in the schedules to this press release. We believe these non-GAAP measures are important supplemental measures of our operating and financial performance. By providing these measures, together with the reconciliations, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business, our results of operations and our financial position, as well as assisting investors in evaluating the extent to which we are executing our strategic initiatives. However, these non-GAAP financial measures supplement our IFRS disclosures and should not be considered an alternative to the IFRS measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Value-Added Revenue (“VAR”) is defined as revenue, excluding revenue from incidental activities, minus cost of metal which includes, cost of aluminium adjusted for metal lag, cost of other alloying metals, freight out costs, and realized gains and losses from hedging. Management believes that VAR is a useful measure of our activity as it eliminates the impact of metal costs from our revenue and reflects the value-added elements of our activity. VAR eliminates the impact of metal price fluctuations which are not under our control and which we generally pass-through to our customers and facilitates comparisons from period to period. VAR is not a presentation made in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue determined in accordance with IFRS.

In considering the financial performance of the business, management and our chief operational decision maker, as defined by IFRS, analyze the primary financial performance measure of Adjusted EBITDA in all of our business segments. The most directly comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted EBITDA is our net income or loss for the period. We believe Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, is useful to investors and is used by our management for measuring profitability because it excludes the impact of certain non-cash charges, such as depreciation, amortization, impairment and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives as well as items that do not impact the day-to-day operations and that management in many cases does not directly control or influence. Therefore, such adjustments eliminate items which have less bearing on our core operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of Constellium and in comparison to other companies, many of which present an Adjusted EBITDA-related performance measure when reporting their results.

14

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income / (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, results from joint ventures, net finance costs, other expenses and depreciation and amortization as adjusted to exclude restructuring costs, impairment charges, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives and on foreign exchange differences on transactions which do not qualify for hedge accounting, metal price lag, share based compensation expense, effects of certain purchase accounting adjustments, start-up and development costs or acquisition, integration and separation costs, certain incremental costs and other exceptional, unusual or generally non-recurring items.

Adjusted EBITDA is the measure of performance used by management in evaluating our operating performance, in preparing internal forecasts and budgets necessary for managing our business and, specifically in relation to the exclusion of the effect of favorable or unfavorable metal price lag, this measure allows management and the investor to assess operating results and trends without the impact of our accounting for inventories. We use the weighted average cost method in accordance with IFRS which leads to the purchase price paid for metal impacting our cost of goods sold and therefore profitability in the period subsequent to when the related sales price impacts our revenues. Management believes this measure also provides additional information used by our lending facilities providers with respect to the ongoing performance of our underlying business activities. Historically, we have used Adjusted EBITDA in calculating our compliance with financial covenants under certain of our loan facilities.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with IFRS, is not a measure of financial condition, liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as an alternative to profit or loss for the period, revenues or operating cash flows determined in accordance with IFRS.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditure, net of grants received. Management believes that Free Cash Flow is a useful measure of the net cash flow generated or used by the business as it takes into account both the cash generated or consumed by operating activities, including working capital, and the capital expenditure requirements of the business. However, Free Cash Flow is not a presentation made in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to operating cash flows determined in accordance with IFRS. Free Cash Flow has certain inherent limitations, including the fact that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary spending, notably because it does not reflect principal repayments required in connection with our debt or capital lease obligations.

Net debt is defined as borrowings plus or minus the fair value of cross currency basis swaps net of margin calls less cash and cash equivalents and cash pledged for the issuance of guarantees. Management believes that Net debt is a useful measure of indebtedness because it takes into account the cash and cash equivalent balances held by the Company as well as the total external debt of the Company. Net debt is not a presentation made in accordance with IFRS, and should not be considered as an alternative to borrowings determined in accordance with IFRS.
