Note 7 – Contingent Liabilities and Commitments

Contingent Liabilities

The Company accrues for loss contingencies when losses are probable and reasonably estimable. Otherwise, the Company discloses the matter if there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may have occurred.

The Company is a defendant in certain legal proceedings that are incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these legal proceedings, which is not clearly determinable at the present time, individually and in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company, its consolidated financial position, future results of operations or cash flows. The Company has recorded a liability, as necessary, to provide for the anticipated costs, including legal defense costs, associated with the resolution of these legal proceedings. However, the possibility exists that the costs to resolve these legal proceedings could differ materially from the recorded estimates and, therefore, have a material effect on the Company, its consolidated financial position, future results of operations or cash flows for the periods in which they are resolved.

 

The Company is currently involved in a dispute relating to the import of steel across international borders. Based on currently available information, the Company believes a loss is not probable and therefore has not recorded a reserve. The Company estimates that a reasonably possible loss could range from $2.0 million to $4.0 million. The Company will continue to monitor the dispute and will record a reserve if settlement in the dispute becomes probable.

Commitments

In February 2026, the Bidder entered into a binding agreement with a single Kloeckner shareholder to purchase 1,000,000 Kloeckner Shares at 11.00 per share. The agreement requires delivery of these Kloeckner Shares at closing of the binding agreement, which is expected to take place on June 15, 2026. No voting or economic rights transfer until closing. As of February 28, 2026, no asset or liability has been recorded because the agreement remains executory. The total contractual purchase price under the agreement is 11.0 million ($13.0 million as of February 28, 2026).
