FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
METALICO TURNS PROFIT
IN SECOND QUARTER
CRANFORD, NJ, August 13, 2014 Metalico, Inc. (NYSE MKT: MEA) reported net income of $300,000 or $.01 per share, for the second quarter of 2014, compared to a net loss of $2.7 million or $.06 loss per share for the same period in the prior year.
The Company posted sales of $142 million for the June 2014 quarter, compared to $130 million for the 2013 second quarter. The current year period was principally impacted by higher scrap volumes, higher ferrous selling prices and a favorable non-ferrous product mix. Lead product selling prices rose, while unit shipments were lower versus Q2 of 2013.
Metalicos Scrap Metal Recycling segment returned to profitability, generating $3.5 million before corporate overhead of $1.3 million. The Lead Fabricating segment continued to report strong results with $822,000 operating income before corporate overhead of $165,000. The quarter saw significant improvement in consolidated operating income to a gain of $2.7 million from a loss of $2 million in the same quarter in 2013.
Prior Years Second Quarter Comparison
Year-over-year second quarter comparisons reflect improved financial results on increased volumes and selling prices for most commodities:
| Sales rose 9% to $142 million from $130 million. |
| Operating income improved by $4.7 million to $2.7 million from an operating loss of $2 million. |
| Net income of $300,000 was up from a net loss of $2.7 million. |
| Net income per share of $0.01 compares to a loss per share of $0.06. |
| EBITDA rose by $5.3 million to $7 million from $2.7 million. |
| Non-ferrous unit volume shipments jumped 28% to a record 56.6 million pounds |
| Ferrous volume rose by 9%, while lead product shipments fell 20% |
Commenting on the results for the quarter, Carlos E. Agüero, Metalicos President and Chief Executive Officer, said, Our results confirm business improvement on multiple fronts. We continue to maintain disciplined scrap buying practices which has increased metal margins. Ferrous shipments were the second highest ever and non-ferrous shipments surpassed our previous record by a significant quantity despite unimpressive commodity selling prices.
He added, We are also seeing reduced commodity selling price volatility, increased scrap flows and more rational scrap buying decisions by competitors throughout our markets, resulting in improving metal margins. These positive developments have carried over into the third quarter and hopefully will remain in place through the remainder of the year.
Sequential Comparison to First Quarter of 2014
| Sales rose 5% to $142 million from $135 million. |
| Operating income improved by $4.7 million to $2.7 million from an operating loss of $2 million. |
| Net income improved by $4.2 million to $300,000 from a net loss of $3.9 million. |
| Net income per share increased to $.01, compared to a loss of $.08. |
| EBITDA more than doubled to $7 million from $2.8 million. |
| Unit volumes shipped jumped by 30% for non-ferrous scrap and rose 1% for ferrous scrap. |
| Lead product shipments fell by 6% to 9.3 million pounds from 9.9 million pounds. |
Excluding corporate overhead charges, the Companys Scrap Metal segment reported operating income of $3.5 million in the second quarter compared to an operating loss of $1.4 million last year. The Companys Lead Fabricating segment reported operating income of $800,000 compared to $1.4 million in the prior-year period.

Balance Sheet Summary
Outstanding debt fell to $126.0 million as of June 30, 2014, from $127.4 million at year-end. Availability under the revolving credit facility combined with cash on hand was at $13.8 million on August 12, 2014. Noncompliance with principal payment obligations under Metalicos Convertible Notes, together with a violation of Metalicos leverage ratio under its senior secured financing agreement, required a reclassification of most of its long-term debt to short-term. The Company continues to generate positive cash flow from operations, has ample liquidity to maintain its operations, and is current on its trade payables.
Under the terms of Metalicos Convertible Notes, holders were entitled to deliver notices of redemption on or before June 30 requiring the Company to redeem the Notes at par. On June 30, Metalico announced an agreement in principle to restructure the principal balance of the Notes that would defer the Note holders` put right to December 31, 2015 using funds made available by the Companys senior lenders pursuant to an amendment under its senior secured financing agreement and other consideration. However, proposed terms of the amendment to the financing agreement as it was drafted conflicted with the terms agreed upon with the Note holders and an amendment to the financing agreement has not been completed. The Company continues to negotiate with the Note holders and the senior lenders to reach an agreement. Such an agreement may include an extension of the put right, the issuance of new debt or equity or a combination of both, starting with the framework of general agreements in principal reached among the parties on June 30.
Metalico previously announced that its senior lenders have invoked their right to block payments to the Note holders after the failure to redeem the Notes on June 30 caused defaults under the governing documents. Metalico has retained Imperial Capital, LLC to advise it in its negotiations to amend the credit facility and to assist in proposed asset sales, also previously announced, intended to generate proceeds to de-leverage the Company.
Business Outlook
Ferrous: An uptick in steel industry capacity utilization since the first quarter, from 73% to 79%, has helped to improve scrap demand and stabilized scrap selling prices, especially for cut grades. Shred prices still show weakness relative to other grades. The export market, although still soft, is beginning to show signs of improvement. Scrap availability is benefitting from a strong seasonal upswing in demolition activity, factory cleanout projects and improvement in the manufacturing segment.
Non-Ferrous (Including Aluminum De-ox): Increased aluminum and stainless steel demand has been the key driving force of rising prices as of late. Copper demand and pricing are stable and remain mostly unchanged. The Company expects continued strength in demand and price for most aluminum products, including de-ox, through year-end and at best a sideways market for nickel and copper-based scrap metals.
The prices of platinum group and minor metals have been trending slightly higher during Q2 and early in Q3. Based on rising demand for PGMs, particularly palladium, from auto manufacturers and a stabilizing minor metal market, the second half of 2014 could show improvement in metal demand and possibly support related commodity prices.
Lead Fabricating: Metalico expects continued steady to slightly improving demand in its markets served and products sold. The supply and pricing of scrap and refined lead is expected to be more than adequate to meet the Companys raw material requirements for the remainder of the year. Improvement in availability of shot reload components, specifically black powder, is expected to improve demand for bagged shot over the remainder of the 2014 shooting season.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP EBITDA and Net Income
When the Company uses the term EBITDA, the Company is referring to earnings before interest, stock-based compensation, income taxes, other expense, equity in loss of unconsolidated investee, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interest. The Company presents EBITDA because it considers it an important supplemental measure of the Companys performance and believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in Metalicos industry. The Company also uses EBITDA to determine its compliance with some of the covenants under its credit facility. EBITDA is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States GAAP, and has limitations as an analytical tool. You should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for net income, operating income, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Other companies in the Companys industry may calculate EBITDA differently from how the Company does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to the Company to invest in the growth of its business. The following table reconciles EBITDA to net income:
