      Comments on Second Quarter 2017; Completes Extension of ABL and Term Loan</b></font>
    </p>
    <p>
      PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 29, 2017--Allegheny Technologies
      Incorporated (NYSE: ATI) today commented on the second quarter 2017 and
      said that it has extended its Asset Based Lending (ABL) facility,
      including the maturity of its $100 million term loan, to February 2022.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Second quarter performance is consistent with the outlook we provided
      in April,&#8221; said Rich Harshman, ATI&#8217;s Chairman, President and Chief
      Executive Officer. &#8220;For our High Performance Materials and Components
      segment, the next-generation aerospace ramp remains on track. Segment
      performance continues to improve in the second quarter with sequentially
      higher operating profit and operating profit as a percentage of sales.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;While we have made tremendous progress in restructuring and
      repositioning our FRP business, as stated in&#160;April we remain cautious in
      the short-term due to falling raw material costs, primarily nickel as
      well as ferrochrome. Significant declines in raw material prices in the
      second quarter are negatively impacting raw material surcharges and
      transaction prices. As a result, we expect Flat Rule Products segment
      (FRP) second quarter results to be at or near breakeven.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      ATI expects to report second quarter 2017 sales in the range of $865 to
      $890 million and EPS in the range of $0.04 to $0.09 per share. Corporate
      and closed operations expenses are expected to be approximately $10
      million higher in the second quarter 2017 compared to the first quarter.
      The first quarter 2017 benefitted from several favorable event-driven
      items.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;To provide a liquidity cushion, we completed the extension of the Asset
      Based Lending (ABL) facility to February 2022, including extending the
      maturity of the $100 million ABL term loan from November 2017 to
      February 2022,&#8221; Harshman said.
    </p>
    <p>
      Cash generation from operations remains a key focus, and we continue to
      carefully manage working capital requirements as our operating rates
      continue to increase. ATI has no significant debt maturities until June
      2019.
    </p>
    <p>
      ATI will provide live Internet listening access to its conference call
      with investors and analysts scheduled for Tuesday, July 25, 2017 at 8:30
      a.m. ET. The conference call will be conducted after the Company&#8217;s
      planned release of second quarter 2017 results. The conference call will
      be broadcast, and accompanying presentation slides will be available, at
      ATImetals.com. To access the broadcast, go to the home page and select
