Ferroglobe PLC and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020
and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

(U.S. Dollars in thousands as otherwise indicated, except share and per share data)

1. General information

Ferroglobe PLC and subsidiaries (the "Company" or "Ferroglobe") is among the world's largest producers of silicon metal and silicon and manganese-based alloys, important ingredients in a variety of industrial and consumer products. The Company's customers include major silicone chemical, aluminum and steel manufacturers, auto companies and their suppliers, ductile iron foundries, manufacturers of photovoltaic solar cells and computer chips, and concrete producers.

Ferroglobe PLC (the "Parent Company" or "the Parent") is a public limited company that was incorporated in England and Wales on February 5, 2015 (formerly named 'Velonewco Limited'). The Parent's registered office is 5 Fleet Place, London, England, EC4M7RD.

On December 23, 2015, Ferroglobe PLC consummated the acquisition ("Business Combination") of Globe Specialty Metals, Inc. and subsidiaries ("GSM" or "Globe") and Grupo FerroAtlántica, S.A.U. or "FerroAtlántica".

2. Basis of preparation and changes to the Company's accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the audited consolidated financial statements of Ferroglobe as of December 31, 2020.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.

All accounting policies and measurement basis with effect on the consolidated financial statements were applied in their preparation.

The consolidated financial statements were prepared on a historical cost basis, with the exceptions disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, where applicable, and in those situations where IFRS requires that financial assets and financial liabilities are valued at fair value.

The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 were prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, we conducted an evaluation as to whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, which raised substantial doubt as to the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the issuance of our consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2021, as reflected in our consolidated financial statements, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $84.4 million, of which $6.1 million was restricted. The Company had an operating loss of $44.1 million and a net loss of $68.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2021.

COVID-19 has been and continues to be a complex and evolving situation, with governments, public institutions and other organizations imposing or recommending, and businesses and individuals implementing, at various times and to varying degrees, restrictions on various activities or other actions to combat its spread, such as restrictions and bans on travel or transportation; limitations on the size of in-person gatherings, restrictions on freight transportations, closures of, or occupancy or other operating limitations on work facilities, and quarantines and lock-downs.

As a result of this pandemic and the strict confinement and other public health measures taken around the world, the demand of our products in the second and third quarters of 2020 was reduced significantly compared with the first and fourth quarters of the year. During the fourth quarter of 2020, demand level for our products increased to levels similar to those prior to the outbreak. In first quarter of 2021, demand for our products has increased even further than in the fourth quarter of 2020. However, COVID-19 has negatively impacted, and will in the future negatively impact to an extent we are unable to predict, our revenues.

6

The main source of finance for the Company are the Senior Notes (the "Notes") amounting $350,000 thousand due March 1, 2022. The Indenture governing the Notes includes provisions which, in the event of a change of control, would require the Company to offer to redeem the outstanding Notes at a cash purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. Based on the provisions cited above, a change of control as defined in the indenture is unlikely to occur, but the matter it is not within the Company's control. If a change of control were to occur, the Company may not have sufficient financial resources available to satisfy all of its obligations. Management is pursuing additional sources of financing to increase liquidity to fund operations.

The Company has announced occurence of "transaction effective date" under lock-up agreement dated March 27, 2021 and completion of refinancing transactions.

Management acknowledges that the events and conditions relating to the uncertainty the potential repayment of the outstanding balance of the Notes should a change of control occur, and the difficulties in forecasting net cash flows in the current economic conditions because of the Covid-19 pandemic, together in aggregate give rise to a material uncertainty that may cast substantial doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months following the date our consolidated financial statements are issued. Notwithstanding the material uncertainty described above, management believes that the Group has adequate resources and considers it likely that the exchange of the Notes and additional capital will be completed, that will allow the Group to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as going concern.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company on September 30, 2021.

In determining the disclosures to be made on the various items in the financial statements or other matters, the Company, in accordance with IAS 34, considered their materiality in relation to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the period.

2.2 New standards, interpretations, and amendments adopted by the Company

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

No new standards effective on January 1, 2021 have a material impact on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

2.3 Responsibility for the information and use of estimates

The information in these consolidated financial statements is the responsibility of Ferroglobe's Management.

Certain assumptions and estimates were made by management in the preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, including:

The impairment losses on goodwill.
The assumptions taken over forecast recovery in trading activity and cash liquidity management that mitigates any substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
The fair value valuation of the plants, impairment losses on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, determined by value in use or by fair value less cost of disposal methods.
The fair value of certain unquoted financial assets.
The fair value of financial instruments.
The fair value of acquired assets and liabilities as a result of the business combinations.
The assumptions used in the actuarial calculation of pension liabilities.
The discount rate used to calculate the present value of certain collection rights and payment obligations.
Provisions for contingencies and environmental liabilities.

7

The Company based its estimates and judgments on historical experience, known or expected trends and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates. Changes in accounting estimates are applied in accordance with IAS 8.

At the date of preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements no events had taken place that might constitute a significant source of uncertainty regarding the accounting effect that such events might have in future reporting periods.

On February 6, 2020, the Company entered into an amended and restated accounts receivables securitization program via which trade receivables generated by certain of the Company's subsidiaries in Spain and France are financed both directly through the existing Irish special purpose vehicle ("SPE") and indirectly through a French "fonds commun de titrisation". The incorporation of the "fonds commun de titirsation" into the program has allowed for the sale of certain Euro-denominated receivables that were not eligible under the previous structure and increased the available funding. The senior lender's commitments under the amended and restated securitization program are $150,000 thousand. Finacity remained as intermediate subordinated lender providing a cash consideration of $2,808 thousand, and the Company's European subsidiaries continued as senior subordinated and junior subordinated lenders as well as, having interests in the senior and intermediate subordinated loan tranches.

On October 2, 2020, the Company ended the receivables funding agreement and cancelled the securitization program, signing a new factoring agreement with a Leasing and Factoring Agent, for anticipating the collection of receivables of the Company's European entities (Grupo FerroAtlántica, S.A. and FerroPem S.AS). As a result of the agreement, the Leasing and Factoring Agent provided a cash consideration of circa $48.8 million, repurchased the receivables portfolio sold to the SPE on September 28, and consequently assumed the loan tranche of the senior borrower to the SPE. Also, the senior loan and intermediate subordinate loan tranches were paid with internal sources of funds, terminating the financing structure of the securitization program.

11

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company repaid $107,657 thousand (EUR 95,695 thousand) in order to, prior to the termination of receivables funding agreement, optimize the level of borrowings of the SPE with the level of receivables in the securitization, and cancel all commitments in respect of loan tranches held by the Company.

Regarding the new factoring agreement, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, provided upfront cash consideration of approximately $127,690 thousand. The Company repaid $126,164 thousand, showing at March 31, 2021, an on-balance sheet bank borrowing debt of $73,713 thousand

At March 31, 2021, the Company held $86,308 thousand of accounts receivables recognized in consolidated balance sheet in respect of the factoring agreement. Finance costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2021, amounts $782 thousand, recognized in finance costs in the consolidated income statement.

During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the new factoring agreement provided upfront cash consideration of approximately $169,105 thousand. The Company has repaid $95,800 thousand, showing at December 31, 2020, an on-balance sheet bank borrowing debt of $74,844 thousand.

At December 31, 2020, the Company held $89,154 thousand of accounts receivables recognized in consolidated balance sheet in respect of factoring agreement. Finance costs incurred during the year ended December 31, 2020, amounts $916 thousand, recognized in finance costs in the consolidated income statement.

Judgements relating to the recognition criteria

The Company has assessed whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards, continuing to be exposed to the variable returns from its involvement in the factoring agreement as it is exposed to credit risk, so the conclusion is that the derecognition criteria is not applicable and therefore, the account receivables sold is presented in the balance and a obligation is recognized as bank borrowings for the amount of cash advanced by the Leasing and Factoring Agent. The amount repayable under the factoring agreement is presented as on-balance sheet factoring and the debt assigned to factoring is showed as bank borrowings.

Contingent consideration - - (16,632 ) (16,632 )

Contingent consideration is related to the acquisition of Kintuck (France) SAS and Kintuck (Norway) AS, which requires the Company to pay the former owners a sliding scale commission based on the silicomanganese and ferromanganese sales spreads of Ferroglobe Mangan Norge and Ferroglobe Manganèse France, up to a maximum amount of $60,000 thousand (undiscounted). The contingent consideration applies to sales made up to eight and a half years from the date of acquisition (February 1, 2018). The potential undiscounted amount of all future payments that the Company could be required to make under the contingent consideration arrangement is between $0 thousand and $60,000 thousand. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement of $16,632 thousand ($16,632 thousand in December, 2020) was estimated by applying the income approach based on a Monte Carlo simulation considering various scenarios of fluctuations of future manganese alloy spreads as well as the cyclicality of manganese alloy pricing. The fair value measurement is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, which IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement refers to as Level 3 inputs. Key assumptions include discount rates of 12.5 percent and 11.5 percent for Ferroglobe Mangan Norge and Ferroglobe Manganèse France respectively, process, spread and cost assumptions
