## Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On May 27, 2026, representatives of Ryerson Holding Corporation (the "Company") began making presentations to investors using slides containing the information attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 (the "Investor Presentation") and incorporated herein by reference. The Company expects to use the Investor Presentation, in whole or in part, and possibly with modifications, in connection with presentations to investors, analysts, and others during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

The Investor Presentation includes financial information not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP Financial Measures"). A reconciliation of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), as required by Regulation G, appears in Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company is providing disclosure of the reconciliation of reported Non-GAAP Financial Measures used in the Investor Presentation, among other places, to its comparable financial measures on a GAAP basis. The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide investors additional ways to view our operations, when considered with both our GAAP results and the reconciliation to net income and net cash provided by operating activities, which we believe provide a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure and provide a basis of comparison of results between current, past, and future periods. We believe the Non-GAAP Financial Measures also provide investors a useful tool to assess shareholder value.

By filing this Current Report on Form 8-K and furnishing the information contained herein, the Company makes no admission as to the materiality of any information in this report that is required to be disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD. The information contained in the Investor Presentation is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings and other public announcements that the Company may make, by press release or otherwise, from time to time. The Company undertakes no duty or obligation to publicly update or revise the information contained in this report, although it may do so from time to time as its management believes is warranted. Any such updating may be made through the filing of other reports or documents with the SEC, through press releases or through other public disclosure.

The information furnished with this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Important Information About Ryerson Holding Corporation These materials do not constitute an offer or solicitation to purchase or sell securities of Ryerson Holding Corporation ("Ryerson" or "the Company") or its subsidiaries and no investment decision should be made based upon the information provided herein. Ryerson strongly urges you to review its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which can be found at https://ir.ryerson.com/financials/sec-filings/default.aspx. This site also provides additional information about Ryerson. Safe Harbor Provision Certain statements made in this release and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of the Company constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding our future performance, as well as management's expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates, objectives, or projections relating to the future. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "objectives," "goals," "preliminary," "range," "believes," "expects," "may," "estimates," "will," "should," "plans," or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. The Company cautions that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Among the factors that significantly impact our business are: the cyclicality of our business; the highly competitive, volatile, and fragmented metals industry in which we operate; the impact of geopolitical events; fluctuating metal prices; our indebtedness and the covenants in instruments governing such indebtedness; the integration of acquired operations; regulatory and other operational risks associated with our operations located inside and outside of the United States; the influence of a single investor group over our policies and procedures; work stoppages; obligations under certain employee retirement benefit plans; currency fluctuations; and consolidation in the metals industry. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be considered in light of various factors, including those set forth above and those set forth under "Risk Factors" in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Moreover, we caution against placing undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date they were made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances, new information or otherwise. Non-GAAP Measures Certain measures contained in these slides or the related presentation are not measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). They should not be considered a replacement for GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures appearing in these slides are identified in the footnotes. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the Appendix. 2

U.S. ISM Purchasing Managers Index Commodity Prices Trending Up 1Sources: Bloomberg: prices through May 19, 2026, indexed to December 2019; US Industrial Production MoM and US ISM Purchasing Managers Index from Trading Economics commodity & Macro Environment Futures Demand and order activity has been strong in early 2026 relative to recent periods, illustrated by the ISM Purchasing Manager's Index, while industrial metal commodity price bellwethers moved higher in the first quarter, supporting improving average selling prices. Ryerson's first quarter volume growth was led by transactional business while PMI readings have indicated expanding manufacturing activity for the past four months, the longest consecutive growth period since late 2022. Data center and power generation continue to be strong secular trends supporting backlogs while service center inventory levels are currently lean relative to the past five years.

Margin and Expense Trends \*Adjusted expenses are operating expenses excluding restructuring, impairment charges on fixed assets, gain on insurance settlement, and advisory service fees; see Appendix for reconciliation. 2024 and 2025 quarters are Ryerson legacy and do not include Olympic Steel results; Olympic is included in six weeks of Q1 2026 results. 15 Gross margin per ton expanded in the first quarter of 2026 as contract pricing began to reset amid the higher commodity price environment while transactional pricing was supported by the improved demand environment. At the same time, adjusted expenses\* (excluding one-time items) per ton decreased despite inflationary pressures in compensation and benefits and delivery expenses. Ryerson expects its procurement, efficiency, commercial enhancement, and network optimization synergy strategies to support margin growth and expense management over the next two years.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation Note: EBITDA represents net (loss) income before interest and other expense on debt, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA gives further effect to, among other things, reorganization expenses, gain on settlements, gain on benefit plan curtailment, pension settlement charges, and foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and purchase considerations among other items. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), provides useful information to investors regarding our operational performance because they enhance an investor's overall understanding of our core financial performance and provide a basis of comparison of results between current, past, and future periods. We also disclose the metric Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), to provide a means of comparison amongst our competitors who may not use the same basis of accounting for inventories. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), are three of the primary metrics management uses for planning and forecasting in future periods, including trending and analyzing the core operating performance of our business without the effect of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, expenses, revenues and gains (losses) that are unrelated to the day-to-day performance of our business. We also establish compensation programs for our executive management and regional employees that are based upon the achievement of pre-established EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), targets. We also use EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), to benchmark our operating performance to that of our competitors. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), do not represent, and should not be used as a substitute for, net income (loss) or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and neither EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), is necessarily an indication of whether cash flow will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements. This release also presents gross margin, excluding LIFO expense (income), which is calculated as gross profit minus LIFO expense (income), divided by net sales. We have excluded LIFO expense (income) from gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales metrics in order to provide a means of comparison amongst our competitors who may not use the same basis of accounting for inventories as we do. Our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), gross margin, excluding LIFO expense (income), and Adjusted EBITDA, excluding LIFO expense (income), as a percentage of sales may differ from that of other companies.
