NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of the Business

Steel Dynamics, Inc. (SDI), together with its subsidiaries (the company), is a domestic manufacturer of steel products and metals recycler. The company has three reportable segments: steel operations, metals recycling operations, and steel fabrication operations.

Steel Operations Segment. Steel operations include the company’s Butler Flat Roll Division, Columbus Flat Roll Division, The Techs galvanizing lines, Heartland Flat Roll Division, United Steel Supply (acquired 75% equity interest March 1, 2019), Structural and Rail Division, Engineered Bar Products Division, Vulcan Threaded Products, Inc., Roanoke Bar Division, Steel of West Virginia, and Iron Dynamics, a liquid pig iron (scrap substitute) production facility that supplies solely the Butler Flat Roll Division. These operations include electric arc furnace steel mills, producing steel from ferrous scrap and scrap substitutes, utilizing continuous casting, automated rolling mills, with several downstream coating and bar processing lines. Steel operations accounted for 76% and 77% of the company’s consolidated external net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 76% and 75% during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Metals Recycling Operations Segment. Metals recycling operations consists solely of OmniSource, LLC (OmniSource), and includes both ferrous and nonferrous processing, transportation, marketing, brokerage, and scrap management services. Metals recycling operations accounted for 11% and 12% of the company’s consolidated external net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 12% and 14% during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Steel Fabrication Operations Segment. Steel fabrication operations include the company’s New Millennium Building Systems’ joist and deck plants located throughout the United States, and in Northern Mexico. Revenues from these plants are generated from the fabrication of trusses, girders, steel joists and steel deck used within the non-residential construction industry. Steel fabrication operations accounted for 10% and 8% of the company’s consolidated external net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 9% and 8% of the company’s consolidated external net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Other. Other operations consists of subsidiary operations that are below the quantitative thresholds required for reportable segments and primarily consist of smaller joint ventures, and the idle Minnesota ironmaking operations. Also included in “Other” are certain unallocated corporate accounts, such as the company’s senior secured credit facility, senior notes, certain other investments and certain profit sharing expenses.

Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SDI, together with its wholly- and majority-owned/controlled subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. Noncontrolling interests represent the noncontrolling owner’s proportionate share in the equity, income, or losses of the company’s majority-owned/controlled consolidated subsidiaries.

Use of Estimates. These consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and accordingly, include amounts that require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and in the notes thereto. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying value of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, and goodwill; valuation allowances for trade receivables, inventories and deferred income tax assets; unrecognized tax benefits; potential environmental liabilities; and litigation claims and settlements. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions.

In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results. These consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Note 1. Description of the Business and Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Cash and Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

Cash and equivalents include all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Restricted cash is primarily funds held in escrow as required by various insurance and government organizations. The balance of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows includes restricted cash of $5.5 million, $6.2 million, $6.2 million, $5.8 million, $6.0 million, and $6.4 million at September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019, December 31, 2018, September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively, which are recorded in Other Assets (noncurrent) in the company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Goodwill

The company’s goodwill consisted of the following at September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, (in thousands):

	September 30,		December 31,
	2019		2018
Steel Operations Segment	$	359,283	$	245,473
Metals Recycling Operations Segment		179,705		182,247
Steel Fabrication Operations Segment		1,925		1,925
	$	540,913	$	429,645

The company acquired a 75% equity interest in United Steel Supply on March 1, 2019 (refer to Note 2 Acquisition – United Steel Supply, LLC), resulting in a preliminary purchase price allocation in which $113.8 million of goodwill has been recorded in the Steel Operations Segment at September 30, 2019. Metals Recycling Operations segment goodwill decreased $2.5 million from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019, in recognition of the 2019 tax benefit related to the normal amortization of the component of tax-deductible goodwill in excess of book goodwill.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, and it’s subsequent corresponding updates: which requires an entity to use a forward-looking expected loss model versus the current incurred loss model for most financial instruments, including accounts receivable. This new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, but can be early adopted. The company anticipates adopting ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The company is working through its adoption plan to evaluate policies, processes and systems to determine the impact ASU 2016-13 will have in its consolidated financial statements and related disclosure.

Note 2. Acquisition – United Steel Supply, LLC

On March 1, 2019, the company purchased 75% of the equity interest of United Steel Supply, LLC (USS) for cash consideration of $93.4 million, plus a customary working capital transaction purchase price adjustment of $3.7 million in September 2019. Additionally, the company has an option to purchase, and the sellers have the option to require the company to purchase, the remaining 25% equity interest of USS in the future. Headquartered in Austin, Texas, USS is a leading distributor of painted Galvalume^® flat roll steel used for roofing and siding applications, with distribution centers strategically located in Mississippi, Indiana, Arkansas, and Oregon. USS provides the company a new, complementary distribution channel and connects it to a rapidly growing industry segment with customers that do not traditionally purchase steel directly from a steel producer. USS’s operating results from and after March 1, 2019, are reflected in the company’s financial statements in the steel operations reporting segment.

Note 2. Acquisition – United Steel Supply, LLC (Continued)

The aggregate purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the opening balance sheet of USS as of March 1, 2019, and updated in September 2019 upon the final working capital adjustment, as presented below. The following allocation of the purchase price (in thousands) is preliminary based on the information available to estimate the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The accounting for the acquisition has not yet been completed because the company has not finalized the valuations of identifiable intangible assets, if any, and thus goodwill. The company anticipates finalizing the valuation of identifiable intangible assets by December 31, 2019.

Note 3. Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842) and its subsequent corresponding updates; which established a new lease accounting model that requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and related lease liability for most leases having lease terms of more than 12 months. The company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019, using the optional transition method, thereby applying the new guidance at the effective date, without retrospective application to prior periods. The company elected practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which allowed the company to not reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions regarding lease identification and classification. The company elected to use hindsight when determining the lease term. The company also elected the short-term lease exemption, and did not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases, those with lease commencement date terms of 12 months or less. The company recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of $76.3 million, with no impact on retained earnings, in the consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2019, and the standard did not have a significant impact on the company’s operating results or cash flows for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019.

The company has operating leases relating principally to transportation and other equipment, and some real estate. The company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception, which generally occurs when the arrangement identifies a specific asset that the company has the right to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from use of the identified asset. Certain of our lease agreements contain rent escalation clauses (including fixed and index-based escalations), and options to extend or terminate the lease. For purposes of calculating operating lease obligations under the standard, the company’s lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the company will exercise such option. The company uses its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to determine the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest the company could borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term with similar payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Operating lease right-of-use assets and lease obligations included in the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2019, are as follows (in thousands):

Right of use assets under operating leases:
Other assets - noncurrent	$	74,843
Lease obligations under operating leases:
Accrued liabilities	$	17,202
Other liabilities - noncurrent		57,946
	$	75,148

Note 3. Leases (Continued)

The weighted average remaining lease term for our operating leases is six years and the weighted-average discount rate is 4.0% as of September 30, 2019. Future operating lease liabilities as of September 30, 2019, for the next five years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

Note 4. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share assumes the weighted average dilutive effect of common share equivalents outstanding during the period applied to the company’s basic earnings per share. Common share equivalents represent potentially dilutive restricted stock units, deferred stock units, restricted stock, and performance awards, and are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect. There were no anti-dilutive common share equivalents as of or for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
