(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110406/MM78984LOGO )
The company also announced today that its Board of Directors has approved the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend. The first dividend of $0.10 per share will be payable on July 3, 2013 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 16, 2013. This is the first dividend declared by the company since its initial public offering in April 2011.
2013 First Quarter Highlights
- Revenue After Raw Materials Costs(1) in the quarter was $155.8 million, compared to $155.9 million in the first quarter of 2012.
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the quarter was $38.3 million compared to $36.8 million in the first quarter of 2012, a 4% increase.
- Successfully completed a repricing of its $300 million term loan facility that is expected to reduce its cash interest costs by approximately $3.0 million annually.
2013 First Quarter Financial Results
Revenue After Raw Materials Costs, the company's measurement of sales performance, was $155.8 million, compared to $155.9 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2013 was $38.3 million compared to $36.8 million of Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2012. Income before income taxes was $12.3 million compared to $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2012. Net income attributable to common stock was $8.1 million for the first quarter compared with $0.4 million in 2012.
Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.21 for the first quarter of 2013 compared with $0.01 in 2012. Adjusted Basic and fully diluted earnings per share was $0.22 in the first quarter of 2013 which was comparable to $0.22 in the first quarter of last year. Both of these amounts were adjusted to remove the impact of costs associated with favorable debt restructuring activity.
The company's Adjusted EBITDA Margin(2) for the first quarter of 2013 was 24.6% compared to 23.6% in the first quarter of 2012. Total Revenue for the first quarter was $589.6 million compared to $747.0 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Discretionary Cash Flow(1,3), which the company uses to measure operating cash flow generation, was $28.0 million for the first quarter of 2013 compared with $29.1 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Commenting on the first quarter results, Raymond Kalouche, President and Chief Executive Officer of TMS International Corp., said, "Our first quarter was consistent with our expectations given the challenging industry environment we continue to face. We are well positioned for future growth in our market and are confident in our ability to meet our outlook for the year."
New Raw Materials Brokerage Office
During the quarter, the company continued to expand its global procurement web with the opening of another Mexico trading office, this one in Mexico City. This expansion into Mexico City complements the company's office in Monterrey, Mexico, and its mill services operations in Mexico and the Caribbean.
Outlook
The company reaffirms its full-year guidance for 2013 adjusted EBITDA in a range of $152 million to $160 million, which represents a year-over-year growth rate of 5 to 10 percent.

DESCRIPTION AND GAAP RECONCILIATIONS OF
CERTAIN FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS
Revenue After Raw Materials Costs
We measure our sales volume on the basis of Revenue After Raw Materials Costs, which we define as Total Revenue minus Cost of Raw Materials Shipments. Revenue After Raw Materials Costs is not a recognized financial measure under GAAP, but we believe it is useful in measuring our operating performance because it excludes the fluctuations in the market prices of the raw materials we procure for and sell to our customers. We subtract the Cost of Raw Materials Shipments from Total Revenue because market prices of the raw materials we procure for and generally concurrently sell to our customers are offset on our statement of operations. Further, in our raw materials procurement business, we generally engage in two alternative types of transactions that require different accounting treatments for Total Revenue. In the first type, we take no title to the materials being procured and we record only our commission as revenue; in the second type, we take title to the materials and sell it to a buyer, typically in a transaction where a buyer and seller are matched. By subtracting the Cost of Raw Materials Shipments, we isolate the margin that we make on our raw materials procurement and logistics services, and we are better able to evaluate our operating performance in terms of the volume of raw materials we procure for our customers and the margin we generate.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized financial measure under GAAP, but we believe it is useful in measuring our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is used internally to determine our incentive compensation levels, including under our management bonus plan, and it is required, with some additional adjustments, in certain covenant compliance calculations under our senior secured credit facilities. We also use Adjusted EBITDA to benchmark the performance of our business against expected results, to analyze year-over-year trends and to compare our operating performance to that of our competitors. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure because it excludes the impact of tax provisions and Depreciation and Amortization, which are difficult to compare across periods due to the impact of accounting for business combinations and the impact of tax net operating losses on cash taxes paid. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure of our operating segments in accordance with ASC Topic 280, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA enhances our investors' overall understanding of the financial performance of and prospects for our business.

Discretionary Cash Flow is calculated as our Adjusted EBITDA minus our Maintenance Capital Expenditures. We believe Discretionary Cash Flow is useful in measuring our liquidity. Discretionary Cash Flow is not a recognized financial measure under GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry. Discretionary Cash Flow should not be considered in isolation from or as an alternative to any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP (in thousands):
