Commenting on results, U. S. Steel President and Chief Executive Officer Mario Longhi said, "Total segment EBIT improved as compared to the second quarter as we continued to take action to address our cost structure. We remain focused on our Carnegie Way transformation efforts to weather the continued difficult market environment. These efforts will better position our Company to generate stronger operating margins and respond to changing market conditions."
Segment loss before interest and income taxes was $40 million, or $10 per ton, for the third quarter of 2015 compared to segment loss before interest and income taxes of $104 million, or $27 per ton, in the second quarter of 2015 and segment earnings before interest and income taxes of $479 million, or $94 per ton, in the third quarter of 2014.
For the third quarter 2015, we recorded a tax benefit of $50 million on our pre-tax loss of $223 million. The tax provision includes a benefit for percentage depletion in excess of cost depletion.
Despite the significantly challenging market conditions, we maintained positive operating cash flow of $308 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As of September 30, U. S. Steel had $1.2 billion of cash and $2.9 billion of total liquidity.
Segment Analysis
Third quarter results for our Flat-Rolled segment improved as compared to the second quarter. Our actions to reduce operating costs in alignment with our low utilization levels, combined with increasing Carnegie Way benefits enabled us to mitigate the effect of continued lower average realized prices, which declined during the third quarter by approximately $20 per ton. Additionally, we realized improved results in our mining operations primarily due to reduced spending and increased pellet sales. Imported flat-rolled products, much of which we believe are dumped and/or subsidized, remained excessively high in the third quarter, causing further damage to the domestic market. Based on preliminary statistics, imported sheet products still averaged more than one million tons per month in the third quarter and not only continued to erode our market share, but also placed downward pressure on both our spot and our contract prices.
Our European segment continued to provide positive results that were comparable with the second quarter. A slight decrease in shipments and average realized euro-based prices resulting from increased imports were offset by lower spending and increasing benefits from our Carnegie Way efforts.
Third quarter results for our Tubular segment improved as compared to the second quarter largely as a result of a continued focus on reducing operating costs and maintaining our Carnegie Way efforts which more than offset unfavorable commercial conditions. Shipments and average realized prices continue to be adversely impacted by reduced drilling activity caused by low energy prices and the high levels of tubular imports, much of which we believe are unfairly traded.
2015 Outlook
Commenting on U. S. Steel's outlook for 2015, Longhi said, "We remain committed to the execution of our long-term strategy. We continue to focus on the factors that we can control and are making excellent progress on our Carnegie Way transformation efforts."
Commercial markets are not improving as we had anticipated for the second half of 2015. Steel selling prices reversed direction as excessively high levels of imports, much of which we believe are unfairly traded, and a significant decline in steel scrap prices caused spot prices to reach new lows for the year. High import levels also had a negative impact on the rebalancing of supply chain inventories, decreasing customer order rates in the second half of the year. The market for oil country tubular goods has continued to deteriorate, impacting results in both our Flat-Rolled and Tubular segments. Based on these factors, we expect significantly lower shipments and average realized prices than we previously projected for full-year 2015. Our cost reduction efforts and increasing Carnegie Way benefits are not yet able to fully mitigate the unfavorable commercial impacts and we now expect our full-year adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to be approximately $225 million.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains information that may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Generally, we have identified such forward-looking statements by using the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "project," "target," "forecast," "aim," "will" and similar expressions or by using future dates in connection with any discussion of, among other things, operating performance, trends, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, statements relating to volume growth, share of sales and earnings per share growth, and statements expressing general views about future operating results. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but instead represent only the Company's beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside of the Company's control. It is possible that the Company's actual results and financial condition may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results and financial condition indicated in these forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the time made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. Our Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our Company's historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to the risks and uncertainties described in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" and "Supplementary Data - Disclosures About Forward-Looking Statements" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)
|
|
|
We present EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net earnings (loss) and adjusted net earnings (loss) per diluted share, which are non-GAAP measures, as an additional measurement to enhance the understanding of our operating performance and facilitate a comparison with that of our competitors. EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net earnings (loss) are not, however, intended as alternative measures of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
