MATERION CORPORATION REPORTS
FIRST QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS

MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, Ohio – Materion Corporation (NYSE: MTRN) today reported first quarter 2025 financial results and provided an update to the full year outlook.

Financial Summary
•Net sales were $420.3 million; value-added sales1 were $259.3 million
•Net income of $17.7 million, or $0.85 per share, diluted, versus net income of $13.4 million, or $0.64 per share, in the prior year quarter; adjusted earnings of $1.13 per share versus $0.96 in the prior year quarter
•Operating profit of $27.2 million versus operating profit of $22.2 million in the prior year quarter; adjusted EBITDA2 of $48.7 million versus $45.2 million in the prior year quarter

Business Highlights
•Delivered 130 basis points of margin improvement year over year with record first quarter adjusted EBITDA margins
•$35 million free cash flow3 improvement year over year on reduced working capital
•Secured a multi-year agreement with Idaho National Lab to supply materials in support of nuclear energy research and development

“I am pleased with our strong start to the year, despite the volatile macro environment. Our teams executed well to deliver strong operational performance and record first quarter margins on modest top line growth,” said Jugal Vijayvargiya, President & CEO of Materion. “We also drove significantly improved cash flow in the quarter, with a focus on reducing inventory and thoughtfully pacing investments.

"While there is increased uncertainty around the eventual impact of tariffs on our results and the broader economy, we continue to expect our business to perform well for the balance of the year. We are actively managing our supply chains and making adjustments where necessary to minimize the disruption that tariffs may cause.”

FIRST QUARTER 2025 RESULTS
Net sales for the quarter were $420.3 million, compared to $385.3 million in the prior year period. Value-added sales were $259.3 million for the quarter, up 1% from the prior year period driven by growth in the space and energy end markets and improving demand in semiconductor, partially offset by lower PMI shipments.
Operating profit for the quarter was $27.2 million and net income was $17.7 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, compared to operating profit of $22.2 million and net income of $13.4 million, or $0.64 per share, in the prior year period.
Excluding special items4, adjusted EBITDA was $48.7 million, a first quarter record of 18.8% of value-added sales, compared to $45.2 million or 17.5% of value-added sales in the prior year period. This record adjusted EBITDA margin was driven primarily by strong operational performance and structural cost improvements.
Adjusted net income was $23.7 million excluding acquisition amortization, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared to $0.96 per share in the prior year period.

OUTLOOK
Our performance expectations for 2025 are largely unchanged from our initial guide of $5.30 to $5.70 adjusted earnings per share for the full year, before a potential impact from the unresolved global tariff situation. Currently, we are expecting the second quarter to be slightly better than the first quarter, including a $0.10 to $0.15 earnings per share headwind relating to the current China tariffs which have customers electing to freeze orders as they await further clarity. Looking out to the second half of the year, if these conditions persist, we could expect an additional impact of $0.40 to $0.50 earnings per share. We are currently taking measures to adjust supply chains where possible while reducing costs and pacing investments to minimize the impact on our results.

ADJUSTED EARNINGS GUIDANCE
It is not possible for the Company to identify the amount or significance of future adjustments associated with potential insurance and litigation claims, legacy environmental costs, acquisition and integration costs, certain income tax items, or other non-routine costs that the Company adjusts in the presentation of adjusted earnings guidance. These items are dependent on future events that are not reasonably estimable at this time. Accordingly, the Company is unable to reconcile without unreasonable effort the forecasted range of adjusted earnings guidance for the full year to a comparable GAAP range. However, items excluded from the Company's adjusted earnings guidance include the historical adjustments noted in Attachments 4 through 9 to this press release.

The cost of gold, silver, platinum, palladium, copper, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, rhenium, and osmium is passed through to customers and, therefore, the trends and comparisons of net sales are affected by movements in the market price of these metals. Internally, management also reviews net sales on a value-added basis. Value-added sales is a non-GAAP financial measure that deducts the value of the pass-through metals sold from net sales. Value-added sales allows management to assess the impact of differences in net sales between periods or segments and analyze the resulting margins and profitability without the distortion of the movements in pass-through market metal prices. The dollar amount of gross margin and operating profit is not affected by the value-added sales calculation. The Company sells other metals and materials that are not considered direct pass throughs, and these costs are not deducted from net sales to calculate value-added sales.
The Company’s pricing policy is to pass the cost of these metals on to customers in order to mitigate the impact of price volatility on the Company’s results from operations. Value-added information is being presented since changes in metal prices may not directly impact profitability. It is the Company’s intent to allow users of the financial statements to review sales with and without the impact of the pass-through metals.

In addition to presenting financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release contains financial measures, including operating profit, segment operating profit, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA), net income, and earnings per share, on a non-GAAP basis. As detailed in the above reconciliation and Attachment 6, we have adjusted the results for certain special items, including the following:
1.Restructuring and cost reduction – Costs include restructuring charges, costs associated with temporarily idled facilities as a result of decreased demand and costs associated with disposal of assets associated with obsolete products.
2.Additional start up resources and scrap – Represents incremental resource, consulting and specialists costs incurred related to the ramp of the precision clad strip facility and scrap related to product qualifications.
3.Merger, acquisition and divestiture related costs – Includes due diligence costs associated with potential merger, acquisition and divestitures as well as loss on asset disposals.
4.Business transformation costs – Represents project management and implementation expenses related to the Company's automation and transformation initiatives.

Internally, management reviews the results of operations without the impact of these costs in order to assess the profitability from ongoing activities. We are providing this information because we believe it will assist investors in analyzing our financial results and, when viewed in conjunction with the GAAP results, provide a more comprehensive understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations.
