      PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 18, 2016--Allegheny Technologies
      Incorporated (NYSE: ATI) today announced the next phase in the
      restructuring of its Flat Rolled Products (FRP) operations with the
      reduction of approximately one third of FRP&#8217;s salaried workforce through
      the elimination of over 250 positions. This workforce reduction will be
      completed by the end of the second quarter 2016. As a result of these
      actions, ATI will record a $9 million severance charge in first quarter
      2016 results. These actions are expected to generate annualized cost
      savings benefits of over $30 million beginning in the third quarter 2016.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Reducing our flat-rolled products business&#8217; dependence on unprofitable
      commodity products is a difficult process,&#8221; said Rich Harshman,
      Chairman, President and CEO. &#8220;We believe in U.S. manufacturing. However,
      it is difficult for a U.S.-based company to compete in the global
      commodity markets, particularly when significant global overcapacity
      exists for products such as commodity stainless steel sheet and
      grain-oriented electrical steel (GOES). The restructuring and
      right-sizing actions we are taking, while painful for our employees and
      our company, are necessary to help secure the future of ATI Flat Rolled
      Products.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;We are in the process of creating a smaller, more agile, streamlined,
      cohesive, and efficient FRP business that will focus on products and
      markets with significant technical barriers to entry. As previously
      announced, our Midland, PA stainless steel facility has been idled to
      reduce our exposure to commodity stainless steel sheet. Our GOES
      operation will be idled this month. These actions improve ATI&#8217;s focus on
      differentiated flat-rolled products that serve growing global markets.
      The future restart of the idled operations depends on future business
      conditions and ATI&#8217;s ability to earn an acceptable return on invested
      capital on products manufactured at these operations.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;The reduction in FRP&#8217;s salaried workforce is another step in our
      journey to return the FRP business to profitability as quickly as
      possible, and to execute our strategy for sustainable long-term
      profitable growth. We expect the FRP business to be modestly profitable
      in the second half of 2016.&#8221;
    </p>
