Note 1 – Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of operations and statements of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, balance sheets as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, have been prepared by Universal Stainless & Alloy Products, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles has been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. Accordingly, these statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements, and notes thereto, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, all of which were of a normal, recurring nature, necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and the consolidated results of operations and of cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.   Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). This amendment provides a consistent definition of fair value and ensures that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and IFRS. The amendment clarifies the application of existing fair value measurements and disclosures, and changes certain principles or requirements for fair value measurements and disclosures. The Company adopted these provisions during the six months ended June 30, 2012. This amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, results of operations or cash flows. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2012 presentation.

Note 2 – Acquisition On August 18, 2011, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of Patriot Special Metals, Inc. and RSM Real Estate Holding, Inc., consisting of a specialty steel manufacturing facility located in North Jackson, Ohio (the “North Jackson Facility”). The North Jackson Facility began forging and finishing operations in September 2011. In December 2011, the North Jackson Facility performed the first melts on its new vacuum induction melting (VIM) furnace and two vacuum arc remelting (VAR) furnaces. The aggregate purchase price for the North Jackson Facility was $111.3 million, which was comprised of a $40.0 million term loan, $40.0 million in borrowings under a revolving credit facility, $20.0 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible promissory notes issued to the sellers of the North Jackson Facility and the remainder from cash on-hand prior to the acquisition. The term loan and revolving credit facility were subsequently amended during the 2012, which is discussed further in Note 5. At closing, the Company entered into an escrow agreement with the sellers, pursuant to which $2.5 million of the purchase price was placed in escrow. The escrow agreement expires eighteen months after the closing date. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred $496,000 and $915,000, respectively, of acquisition related costs which are included as a component of selling and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not incur any acquisition related costs in 2012.   The following table summarizes the preliminary acquisition-date fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in connection with the North Jackson Facility acquisition (dollars in thousands):   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="68%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="87%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="6%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">August 18, 2011</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Property, plant and equipment </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">94,102</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Non-compete agreement </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">1,330</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Goodwill </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">20,479</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Accounts payable </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">(4,475</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">) </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Accrued expenses and other current liabilities </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">(138</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom">) </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Net assets acquired </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">111,298</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr>  </table> Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition have been recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Preliminary fair values were determined by management based, in part, on independent valuations performed by third party valuation specialists. The above preliminary fair values are subject to change based upon the finalization of the valuations. Under GAAP, the measurement period shall not exceed one year from the acquisition date. The Company will finalize the above amounts as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained. The fair value assigned to the non-compete agreement is subject to amortization over the five year life of the agreement. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Among the factors that contributed to a purchase price in excess of the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired were the acquisition of an assembled workforce and the expected synergies and other benefits that the Company believes will result from combining the operations of the North Jackson Facility with the Company’s other operations. Goodwill related to the North Jackson Facility acquisition was recorded in the Company’s Universal Stainless & Alloy Products reportable segment. There was no goodwill recognized for income tax purposes as a result of the North Jackson Facility acquisition. The following is a summary of the changes in the carrying value of goodwill, from December 31, 2011 through June 30, 2012 (dollars in thousands):   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="68%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="88%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="6%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Balance, December 31, 2011 </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">20,479</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Change in goodwill </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">—  </td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Balance, June 30, 2012 </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">20,479</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr style="font-size:1px"> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td valign="bottom">   </td> <td> </td> </tr>  </table> As previously mentioned, the Company incurred debt in the form of a term loan, borrowings under a revolving credit facility and convertible notes issued to acquire the North Jackson Facility. In accordance with GAAP, the Company recorded this debt at fair value as of the acquisition date. The fair value of the term loan and borrowings under the revolving credit facility were determined to be the par value of the debt. The terms of the convertible notes were designed to and resulted in the fair value of the option to convert and the debt component aggregating to the par amount of the convertible notes. The Company evaluated the conversion feature of the convertible notes at issuance and determined that no beneficial conversion features existed, which would have required bifurcation. The operating results of the North Jackson Facility have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date. The following unaudited pro forma information presents the combined results as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2011. The unaudited pro forma financial information was prepared to give effect to events that are (1) directly attributable to the acquisition; (2) factually supportable; and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined company’s results. Pro forma adjustments have been made to reflect the incremental impact on earnings of amortization expense related to the acquired intangible asset and income tax expense. The Company has calculated the 2011 pro forma results using a 36.4% effective tax rate from January 1, 2011. As a result of no assets being placed in service prior to the acquisition date, the Company has not included any incremental interest expense resulting from the debt incurred to finance the acquisition. All incurred interest would have been capitalized prior to placing the assets in service. The Company has not included the dilutive effect of the convertible notes on the unaudited pro forma information. Due to the level of completion of the North Jackson Facility on January 1, 2011, it is highly unlikely that the acquisition would have been partially financed through the issuance of convertible notes. Prior to the acquisition, the North Jackson Facility’s only sales were derived from scrap sales. Pro forma adjustments were made to eliminate one-time acquisition related costs. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisition or the costs to integrate the operations or the costs necessary to achieve cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements. The pro forma results are not indicative of how the results will appear in the future.   <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="76%" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse; text-align: left" align="center">  <tr> <td width="63%"> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="12%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td valign="bottom" width="12%"> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Three months ended June 30, 2011</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" colspan="2" align="center" style="border-bottom:1px solid #000000">Six months ended June 30, 2011</td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>   <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Net sales </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">63,448</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">123,389</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Net income </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">5,222</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">9,187</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="8"> </td> <td height="8" colspan="4"> </td> <td height="8" colspan="4"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Earnings per common share – Basic </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">0.77</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">1.35</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Earnings per common share – Diluted </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">0.75</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom">$</td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">1.32</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="8"> </td> <td height="8" colspan="4"> </td> <td height="8" colspan="4"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Weighted-average shares of Common Stock outstanding: </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> Basic </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">6,821,567</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">6,817,317</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cceeff"> <td valign="top"> Diluted </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">6,995,361</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom"> </td> <td valign="bottom" align="right">6,973,785</td> <td nowrap="nowrap" valign="bottom"> </td> </tr>  </table>

were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because their respective exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Common Stock. These options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per common share under the treasury stock method.

On March 19, 2012, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (together with the Credit Agreement, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a $105.0 million Revolver and a $20.0 million Term Loan. PNC Bank, National Association serves as Administrative Agent with respect to the Facilities. The Amended Credit Agreement extends the expiration date from August 2016 to March 2017, provides additional availability under the Facilities and reduces fees and interest rates. The Facilities are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, except that no real property other than the North Jackson Facility is collateral under the Facilities. Universal Stainless & Alloy Products, Inc., Dunkirk Specialty Steel, LLC and North Jackson Specialty Steel, LLC are co-borrowers under the Facilities. The co-borrowers’ obligations under the Facilities have been guaranteed by USAP Holdings, Inc. In conjunction with the amendment to the Credit Agreement, the Company recorded additional deferred financing costs of $348,000 during 2012. Deferred financing costs are included on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other long-term assets. At any time prior to August 18, 2015, the Company may make up to two requests to increase the maximum aggregate principal amount of borrowings under the Revolver by at least $10.0 million, with the maximum aggregate principal amount of borrowings under the Revolver not to exceed $130.0 million in any event. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.25% based on the daily unused portion of the Revolver. The Revolver also provides for up to $7.0 million of swing loans so long as the sum of the outstanding swing loans and the outstanding borrowings under the Revolver does not exceed $105.0 million at any given time. The Term Loan is payable in quarterly installments in the principal amount of $750,000 beginning on July 1, 2013, with the balance of the Term Loan payable in full on March 19, 2017. Amounts outstanding under the Facilities, at the Company’s option, will bear interest at either a base rate (the “Base Rate Option”) or a LIBOR-based rate (the “LIBOR Option”), in either case calculated in accordance with the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company elected to use the LIBOR Option during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, which was 2.0% for the revolving credit facility and 2.46% for the swing loan at June 30, 2012. Interest on the Facilities is payable monthly. The Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a leverage ratio not exceeding a ratio decreasing from 3.25 to 1.00 to 2.75 to 1.00 during the term of the Facilities and a fixed charge coverage ratio not less than 1.20 to 1.00. At June 30, 2012, the Company was obligated to maintain a leverage ratio of not exceeding 3.25 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Amended Credit Agreement at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.   Convertible Notes In connection with the acquisition of the North Jackson Facility, on August 18, 2011, the Company issued $20.0 million in convertible notes (the “Notes”) to the sellers of the North Jackson Facility as partial consideration of the acquisition. The Notes are subordinated obligations of the Company and rank junior to the Credit Facility. The Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.0% per annum, payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on each June 18 and December 18, beginning on December 18, 2011. Unless earlier converted, the Notes mature and the unpaid principal balance is due on August 17, 2017. The Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the option of the holder at an initial conversion price of $47.1675 per share of Common Stock. The conversion price associated with the Notes may be adjusted in certain circumstances. The Company may prepay any outstanding Notes, in whole or in part on any date after August 17, 2014 during a fiscal quarter if the Company’s share price is greater than 140% of the current conversion price for at least twenty of the trading days in the thirty consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding quarter. The Company evaluated the conversion feature of the Notes upon issuance and determined that no beneficial conversion feature existed.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the inputs used to determine fair value, which are as follows: Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Level 2 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions. The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. In instances where the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability. Financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, short-term debt and other current liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated fair value at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of the Term Loan, Revolver and swing loans at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 approximated the carrying amount as the interest rate is based upon floating short-term interest rates. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair value of the Notes approximated the carrying amount.

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies From time to time, various lawsuits and claims have been or may be asserted against the Company relating to the conduct of its business, including routine litigation involving commercial and employment matters. The ultimate cost and outcome of any litigation or claim cannot be predicted with certainty. Management believes, based on information presently available, that the likelihood that the ultimate outcome of any such pending matter will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, or liquidity or a material impact to the results of operations is remote, however the resolution of one or more of these matters may have a material adverse effect on the results of operations for the period in which the resolution occurs.

Note 8 – Income Taxes Management estimates the annual effective income tax rate quarterly, based on current annual forecasted results. Items unrelated to current year ordinary income are recognized entirely in the period identified as a discrete item of tax. The quarterly income tax provision is comprised of tax on ordinary income provided at the most recent estimated annual effective tax rate, increased or decreased for the tax effect of discrete items. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the estimated annual effective tax rate applied to ordinary income was 35.1% and 35.0%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012, which reflects federal and state taxable income, includes a discrete tax benefit of $578,000 for state income taxes, research and development tax credits, and a net operating loss carryback. Including the effect of the discrete tax item, the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was 32.9%. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s effective tax rate was 31.4% and 35.0%, respectively.

Note 9 – Business Segments The Company is comprised of two reportable business segments. The Bridgeville, North Jackson and Titusville facilities have been aggregated into one reportable segment, Universal Stainless & Alloy Products (“USAP”). Dunkirk Specialty Steel represents the second reportable segment. The USAP manufacturing process involves melting, remelting, heat treating, forging and hot and cold rolling of semi-finished and finished specialty steels. Dunkirk Specialty Steel’s manufacturing process involves hot rolling, heat treating and finishing of specialty steel bar, rod and wire products. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the North Jackson Facility acquisition on the Company’s externally reported segments in accordance with ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting.” From the North Jackson acquisition date through June 30, 2012, the Company has included the results of North Jackson in the USAP segment. North Jackson was included in the USAP reporting segment as a result of North Jackson having consistent characteristics as identified in ASC Topic 280 with the USAP segment.   The segment data are as

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). This amendment provides a consistent definition of fair value and ensures that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and IFRS. The amendment clarifies the application of existing fair value measurements and disclosures, and changes certain principles or requirements for fair value measurements and disclosures. The Company adopted these provisions during the six months ended June 30, 2012. This amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, results of operations or cash flows. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2012 presentation.
