Ancora Releases Presentation on U.S. Steel

Presentation Includes Extensive Detail on the Ancora Slate’s Win-Win Strategy for Stockholders

Visit www.MakeUSSteelGreatAgain.com to Download the Presentation

Ancora Holdings Group, LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “Ancora” or “we”), a stockholder of United States Steel Corporation (NYSE: X) (“U.S. Steel” or the “Company”), today issued a presentation highlighting why Ancora’s nominees – including CEO candidate Alan Kestenbaum – represent stockholders’ best opportunity to prepare U.S. Steel for a potential standalone future at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) scheduled for May 6, 2025.

As a reminder, Ancora and its director candidates have no intention of standing in the way of the $55 per share transaction. Ancora has also called for a delay of U.S. Steel’s Annual Meeting until after June 18, 2025, to allow for stockholders to learn the outcome of the new 45-day review of the Company’s proposed merger with Nippon Steel Corporation by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. There is no legitimate reason for U.S. Steel to rush to hold its Annual Meeting before the governmental review concludes.
