Note A – Basis of Presentation

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Worthington Enterprises and its consolidated subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

We own an 80% controlling interest in Halo, which was acquired on February 1, 2024. Halo is consolidated with the equity owned by the other joint venture members shown as “noncontrolling interests” in our consolidated balance sheets, and the other joint venture members’ portions of net earnings and OCI are shown as net earnings or comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated statements of earnings and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively.

 

Investments in unconsolidated affiliates that we do not control are accounted for using the equity method with our proportionate share of income or loss recognized within equity income in our consolidated statements of earnings. See further discussion of our unconsolidated affiliates in “Note C – Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates.”

These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature except those which have been disclosed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements for these interim periods, have been included. Operating results for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2024 Form 10-K.

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Separation of the Steel Processing Business

 

On December 1, 2023, we completed the spin-off of our former steel processing business into an independent publicly traded company, Worthington Steel, on a tax-free basis. Accordingly, the operating results of the former steel processing business are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented, as discussed in further detail in “Note B – Discontinued Operations.” All discussion within this Form 10-Q, including amounts, percentages and disclosures for all periods presented, reflect only our continuing operations unless otherwise noted.

 

In connection with the Separation, we entered into several agreements with Worthington Steel that govern our ongoing relationships, the most significant of which is the long-term Steel Supply Agreement. Other agreements include a long-term Steel Supply Agreement, a Trademark License Agreement, and Transition Services Agreement. Amounts under the Trademark License Agreement and Transition Services Agreement were not significant during the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

 

Pursuant to the long-term Steel Supply Agreement, Worthington Steel manufactures and supplies to us, at reasonable market rates, certain flat rolled steel products, and will provide us with certain related support services such as design, engineering/technical services, price risk management, scrap management, steel purchasing, supply chain optimization and product rework services, and other services at our request that are ancillary to the supply of the flat rolled steel products. Purchases from Worthington Steel under this agreement for the first quarter of fiscal 2025, totaled $28,431, of which $7,424 was payable at August 31, 2024.
