(1) Gross profit, calculated as net sales less cost of sales, is a non-GA AP financial measure as it excludes depreciation and amortization expense
associated with the corresponding sales. About half of our orders are basic distribution with no processing services performed. For the remainder
of our sales orders, we perform “first-stage” processing, which is generally not labor intensive as we are simply cutting the metal to size. Because of
this, the amount of related labor and overhead, including depreciation and amortization expense, is not significant and is excluded from cost of sales.
Therefore, our cost of sales is substantially comprised of the cost of the material we sell. We use gross profit as shown above as a measure of operating
performance. Gross profit is an important operating and financial measure, as fluctuations in our gross profit can have a significant impact on our
earnings. Gross profit, as presented, is not necessarily comparable with similarly titled measures for other companies.
(2) The adoption of accounting rule changes in 2017 affected the presentation of pension costs. Prior year warehouse, delivery, selling, general and
administrative expense and other (income) expense, net have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the current presentation.
(3) 2017 includes a $207.3 million, or $2.82 per share, income tax benefit as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

(1) Operating income represents net sales less cost of sales, warehouse, delivery, selling, general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization expense and impairment
of long-lived assets. The calculation of operating income in years 2012 through 2019 includes various non-recurring charges and credits, including impairment charges in 2019,
2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2013 and 2012. Additionally, the adoption of accounting rule changes in 2017 affected the presentation of operating income. Prior year operating income and
margin amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the current presentation.
(2) 2017 includes a $207.3 million, or $2.82 per share, income tax benefit as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.
(3) Short-term and long-term debt amounts include finance lease obligations. The adoption of accounting rule changes in 2015 affected the presentation of debt issuance costs. Prior
year total assets, long-term debt and net debt-to-total capital ratio amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the current presentation.
(4) Book value per share is calculated as Reliance stockholders’ equity divided by the number of common shares outstanding as of December 31 of each year.
(5) Return on Reliance stockholders’ equity is based on the beginning of year equity amount, except for 2019, 2018 and 2015, which are adjusted for $50.0 million, $484.9 million and
$355.5 million of share repurchases, respectively, and 2017, which is adjusted for a $207.3 million income tax benefit as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

(6) Net debt-to-total capital ratio is calculated as total debt (net of cash) divided by Reliance stockholders’ equity plus total debt (net of cash).
(7) Gross profit, calculated as net sales less cost of sales, and gross profit margin, calculated as gross profit divided by net sales, are non-GA AP financial measures as they exclude
depreciation and amortization expense associated with the corresponding sales. About half of our orders are basic distribution with no processing services performed. For the
remainder of our sales orders, we perform “first-stage” processing which is generally not labor intensive as we are simply cutting the metal to size. Because of this, the amount of
related labor and overhead, including depreciation and amortization, is not significant and is excluded from cost of sales. Therefore, our cost of sales is substantially comprised
of the cost of the material we sell. We use gross profit margin as shown above as a measure of operating performance. Gross profit margin is an important operating and financial
measure, as fluctuations in our gross profit margin can have a significant impact on our earnings. Gross profit margin, as presented, is not necessarily comparable with similarly
titled measures for other companies.
