<div><br>
</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">LONDON, July 6, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ferroglobe PLC (NASDAQ: GSM)&#160; (&#8220;Ferroglobe&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;) welcomes the Canada Border Services Agency&#8217;s (&#8220;CBSA&#8221;) preliminary determinations on dumping and subsidizing duties with respect to certain silicon metal imports into Canada from Brazil, Kazakhstan, Laos, Malaysia, Norway and Thailand. </div>

<div><br>
</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">The CBSA initiated its investigation in response to a complaint filed earlier this year by the sole Canadian producer of silicon metal, Quebec Silicon Limited Partnership, and QSIP Canada ULC, a subsidiary of Ferroglobe.</div>

<div><br>
</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">The CBSA determined margins of dumping of up to 135.3% for silicon metal from the six countries and an amount of subsidy of up to 23.5% for silicon metal imports from Brazil, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Norway and Thailand.&#160; The resulting provisional duties go into effect immediately and apply to silicon metal imported into Canada as of July 5, 2017.</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">&#160;</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Based on import data from Statistics Canada, for 2016, at least 62% of silicon metal imports into Canada are now subject to provisional duties of over 70%. </div>

<div><br>
</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Ferroglobe&#8217;s Executive Chairman, Javier L&#243;pez Madrid, commented that, &#8220;This case demonstrates our commitment to protecting our investments and our workers so that they can enjoy a stable work environment and fair wages and we can compete with foreign producers on a level playing field.&#160; We are pleased with this outcome and look forward to working with the CBSA as they continue the investigation over the coming months.&#8221;&#160; Mr. L&#243;pez Madrid added: &#8220;we remain confident of a favorable outcome in the similar ongoing investigation in the U.S., where unfair trade practices have likewise impacted the market.&#8221;</div>

<div><br>
</div>

<div style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; TEXT-ALIGN: justify">The CBSA will make a final dumping and subsidy determination by October 3, 2017, and the Canadian International Trade Tribunal will make a final injury determination by November 2, 2017.<font style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">&#160;</font></div>
