ATI Reports Strong Q2 Results, Raises Guidance Amid Record Backlog
ATI Inc. (NYSE: ATI) reported second-quarter results that exceeded its own guidance and raised full-year adjusted EBITDA expectations for the second consecutive quarter. Sales rose to $1.26 billion with a significant increase in net income and earnings per share, driven by strong performance across both of its business segments. The company's backlog reached a record high of $4.4 billion, up 18% year-over-year, reflecting robust demand for aerospace and defense materials. The Advanced Alloys & Solutions segment saw particularly strong growth with sales rising 17%, while the High Performance Materials & Components division also posted gains. Despite these successes, there were some challenges including a dip in EBITDA margins due to increased manufacturing costs from new facilities and equipment. Additionally, ATI has significantly increased its debt levels to fund expansion.
