AK Steel Holding Corporation (“AK Steel”) has prepared presentation materials (the “Investor Presentation”) that management intends to use from time to time on and after June 9, 2016 in presentations regarding AK Steel’s business, operations, performance and other matters. AK Steel may use the Investor Presentation, possibly with modifications, in presentations to current and potential investors, as well as others with an interest in AK Steel and its business.
The information contained in the Investor Presentation is summary information that should be considered in the context of materials filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and other public announcements that AK Steel may make by news release or otherwise from time to time. The Investor Presentation speaks only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. While AK Steel may elect to update the Investor Presentation in the future to reflect events and circumstances occurring or existing after the date of this Current Report, AK Steel specifically disclaims any obligation to do so.
By filing this Current Report on Form 8-K and furnishing the Investor Presentation, AK Steel makes no admission or representation as to the materiality of any information in this Current Report or the Investor Presentation.

The Investor Presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
AK Steel noted that its top financial priorities include the reduction of indebtedness over time by approximately $700 million in principal amount and addressing its debt maturity profile, including through a variety of potential capital markets actions from time to time. These actions, which are subject to market conditions, may include, without limitation, (i) the refinancing of its 8.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2018; (ii) the repurchase of a portion of its senior unsecured notes in the open market on an unsolicited basis, by tender offer, through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise; (iii) the equitization or refinancing of its 5.00% Exchangeable Notes due 2019; and, (iv) positioning the company to opportunistically issue additional common stock.
