      Comments on Second Quarter</b></font>
    </p>
    <p>
      PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 14, 2015--Allegheny Technologies
      Incorporated (NYSE: ATI) today commented that, due primarily to
      challenging business conditions in its Flat Rolled Products business and
      further weakening in demand from the oil and gas market, it expects to
      report a net loss attributable to ATI of $16 to $18 million, or $(0.15)
      to $(0.17) per share, for the second quarter 2015.
    </p>
    <p>
      ATI said its second quarter performance continued to be pressured by the
      ATI Flat Rolled Products segment, which recorded its sixth quarterly
      operating loss over the last eight quarters. Base-selling prices for
      standard stainless steel sheet products fell throughout the second
      quarter due primarily to a record surge of low-priced imports, primarily
      from China, and aggressive inventory reductions by distribution
      customers. In addition, product margins were pressured as raw material
      surcharges fell throughout the second quarter primarily due to lower
      prices for nickel units. Shipments of standard stainless products fell
      significantly, compared to the first quarter 2015, as many customers
      reduced inventories throughout the quarter as base-selling prices and
      raw materials surcharges fell.
    </p>
    <p>
      In the High Performance Materials and Components segment, demand for
      ATI&#8217;s specialty materials in the second quarter from the oil and gas
      market was much lower than expected. Demand for ATI&#8217;s specialty
      materials used in exploration applications and for forged products used
      in drilling and flow equipment applications was much weaker than during
      the first quarter 2015. In addition, second quarter shipments of
      titanium mill products to the airframe market had a less favorable
      product mix.
    </p>
    <p>
      Hot-Rolling and Processing Facility (HRPF) start-up costs in the second
      quarter were largely in line with previous estimates, even with the
      issues related to the previously announced defective rotary crop shear
      (RCS) component. The RCS component replacement remains on schedule.
    </p>
    <p>
      On June 15, 2015, ATI announced that it had achieved qualification for
      its premium-titanium products used in jet engine rotating parts made
      using ATI&#8217;s premium-quality (PQ) titanium sponge. With this approval,
      ATI is now integrated for titanium alloys from PQ sponge through melting
      processes, to mill products, and to parts and components, such as our
      fully machined forgings and investment castings, used in next-generation
      and legacy jet engines and airframes.
    </p>
    <p>
      ATI will provide live Internet listening access to its conference call
      with investors and analysts scheduled for Tuesday, July 21, 2015 at 8:30
      a.m. ET. The conference call will be conducted after the Company&#8217;s
      planned release of second quarter 2015 results. The conference call will
      be broadcast, and accompanying presentation slides will be available, at <u>www.ATImetals.com</u>.
