"We exceeded our guidance in the third quarter, delivering strong adjusted earnings and operating cash flow performance. We continue to see positive demand signals in our core markets, as our customers ramp to achieve their growth targets. We are well-positioned to grow our defense-related business through an expanding mix of highly differentiated products critical to the U.S. and our allies," said Kimberly A. Fields, President and CEO. "Our outstanding performance, contractual positions and steady demand give us the confidence to raise the full-year ranges of our adjusted earnings and cash flow guidance.
"We continue to drive efficiencies in working capital with the goal of maximizing free cash flow," said Fields. "Our year-to-date operating cash flow of $299 million reflects an improvement of $273 million compared to last year. This performance enabled us to support our growth while continuing to return capital to shareholders. During the third quarter, we repurchased $150 million of our stock, bringing our total 2025 share repurchases to $470 million." said Fields.

HPMC's third quarter 2025 sales decreased $5.9 million, or 1%, compared to second quarter 2025, primarily due to a forging contract renewal that changed from a materials purchase structure to a conversion services structure, reducing third quarter revenue by $10 million. Aerospace & defense sales represented 92% of total HPMC sales in both the third and second quarters of 2025.
Third quarter 2025 sales improved 9% compared to third quarter 2024, including a negative impact of $9 million due to the first quarter 2025 disposition of certain non-core operations in Europe and $10 million due to the forging contract renewal noted above. Aerospace & defense sales increased 17% on a year-over-year basis due to strong demand for commercial jet engine and defense products, which was partially offset by lower sales to the medical and specialty energy markets.
HPMC third quarter 2025 segment EBITDA* was $145.8 million, or 24.2% of sales. The sequential increase in margins was primarily due to favorable sales mix and pricing of specialty alloys. Also, second quarter 2025 margin benefited from the recognition of $4.4 million of previously deferred employee retention credits.
HPMC third quarter 2024 segment EBITDA* was $123.2 million, or 22.3% of sales, which included a benefit of $2.9 million for the recognition of previously deferred employee retention credits.

AA&S third quarter 2025 sales decreased $9 million, or 2%, compared to the second quarter 2025, primarily due to lower sales of industrial and specialty energy products. These decreases were partially offset by higher sales in the aerospace & defense sale markets due to increased demand for both commercial aerospace and defense products. Aerospace & defense sales were 46% of total AA&S sales in the third quarter of 2025.
Third quarter 2025 sales increased $23.8 million, or 5%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a 34% increase in aerospace & defense sales. This increase was partially offset by lower sales of industrial and specialty energy products.
AA&S third quarter 2025 segment EBITDA* was $90.4 million, or 17.3% of sales. The sequential increase in margins was primarily due to improved sales mix and pricing of exotic alloys. Second quarter 2025 margin benefited from the recognition of $2.6 million of previously deferred employee retention credits.
AA&S third quarter 2024 segment EBITDA* was $73.6 million, or 14.8% of sales, which included a benefit of $1.9 million for the recognition of previously deferred employee retention credits.

Second quarter 2025: $7.4 million includes pre-tax charges consisting of $7.1 million of start-up and transaction-related costs and $1.6 million of losses on the sale of customer accounts receivable, partially offset by credits of $1.3 million due to a reduction in severance-related reserves for a previous restructuring in our AA&S segment.
