ATI has experienced tremendous growth in the first half of 2006. Sales are up 26% versus 2005 sales

for the first half of the year. ATI has seen its largest sales gains in rapid tooling, injection molding and prototype castings. ATI continues to focus on providing customers with functional prototpyes and parts that enable customers to do real-world testing and significantly cut costs in their product development process. ATI has experienced particular growth in its Target 200 Aluminum Castings business. Target 200 delivers die-cast representative parts with material properties and tolerances similar to AL 380 and AL 390 production die-cast parts. This enables customers to perform real-world testing that would not be possible with 356 AL prototpyes. Target 200 is also excellent for short run and bridge-to-production needs. It delivers high quality parts at a fraction of the cost required to produce a production tool.
