The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") on a basis consistent with that used in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K") filed by Commercial Metals Company ("CMC," and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company") with the United States ("U.S.") Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and include all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the condensed consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the periods indicated. These notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2023 Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended February 29, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Any reference in this Form 10-Q to the "corresponding period" or "comparable period" relates to the relevant three or six month period ended February 28, 2023. Any reference in this Form 10-Q to a year refers to the fiscal year ended August 31st of that year, unless otherwise noted.

CMC is an innovative solutions provider helping build a stronger, safer and more sustainable world. Through an extensive manufacturing network principally located in the U.S. and Central Europe, the Company offers products and technologies to meet the critical reinforcement needs of the global construction sector. CMC’s solutions support construction across a wide variety of applications, including infrastructure, non-residential, residential, industrial and energy generation and transmission.

During the first quarter of 2024, CMC changed its reportable segments to reflect a change in the manner in which the business is managed. Based on changes to CMC’s organizational structure, the evolution of CMC’s solutions offerings outside of traditional steel products, the growing importance of non-steel solutions to CMC’s financial results and future outlook and how CMC's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), the President and Chief Executive Officer, reviews operating results and makes decisions about resource allocation, CMC now has three reportable segments: North America Steel Group, Europe Steel Group and Emerging Businesses Group.

The North America Steel Group segment is composed of a vertically integrated network of recycling facilities, steel mills and fabrication operations located in the U.S. The recycling facilities process ferrous and nonferrous scrap metals (collectively referred to as "raw materials") for use by manufacturers of new metal products. The steel mill operations consist of six electric arc furnace ("EAF") mini mills, three EAF micro mills and one rerolling mill. The steel mills manufacture finished long steel products including reinforcing bar ("rebar"), merchant bar, light structural and other special sections and wire rod, as well as semi-finished billets for rerolling and forging applications (collectively referred to as "steel products"). The fabrication operations primarily fabricate rebar and steel fence posts and offer post-tension cable products (collectively referred to as "downstream products" in the context of the North America Steel Group segment). The general strategy in the North America Steel Group segment is to optimize the Company's vertically integrated value chain to maximize profitability by obtaining the lowest possible input costs and highest possible selling prices. The Company operates the recycling facilities to provide low-cost scrap to the steel mills and the fabrication operations to optimize the steel mill volumes. The North America Steel Group segment's products are sold primarily to steel mills and foundries, as well as construction, fabrication and other manufacturing industries.

The Europe Steel Group segment is composed of a vertically integrated network of recycling facilities, an EAF mini mill and fabrication operations located in Poland. The scrap metal recycling facilities process ferrous scrap metals for use almost exclusively by the mini mill. The steel products manufactured by the mini mill include rebar, merchant bar and wire rod as well as semi-finished billets. The products manufactured by this segment's fabrication operations include fabricated rebar, wire mesh, assembled rebar cages and other fabricated rebar by-products (collectively referred to as "downstream products" in the context of the Europe Steel Group segment). The strategy in the Europe Steel Group segment is to optimize profitability of the products manufactured by the mini mill and is executed in the same manner as in the North America Steel Group segment.

The Europe Steel Group segment's products are sold primarily to fabricators, manufacturers, distributors and construction companies.

The Emerging Businesses Group segment's portfolio consists of CMC Construction ServicesTM products (collectively referred to as "construction products"), Tensar® products and solutions (collectively referred to as "ground stabilization solutions") and CMC Impact MetalsTM, CMC Anchoring Systems and performance reinforcing steel products (collectively referred to as "downstream products" in the context of the Emerging Businesses Group segment).

•CMC Construction ServicesTM operations sell and rent products and equipment used to execute construction projects. Primary customers include concrete installers and other businesses in the construction industry.

•Tensar® operations sell geogrids and Geopier® foundation systems. Geogrids are polymer-based products used for ground stabilization, soil reinforcement and asphalt optimization in construction applications, including roadways, public infrastructure and industrial facilities. Geopier® foundation systems are rammed aggregate pier and other foundation solutions that increase the load-bearing characteristics of ground structures and working surfaces and can be applied in soil types and construction situations in which traditional support methods are impractical or would make a project infeasible.

•CMC Impact MetalsTM operations manufacture heat-treated, high-strength steel products, such as high-strength bar for the truck trailer industry, special bar quality steel for the energy market and armor plate for military vehicles.

•CMC Anchoring Systems' operations supply custom engineered anchor cages, bolts and fasteners that are fabricated principally from rebar and are used primarily to secure high voltage electrical transmission poles to concrete foundations.

•The Company's group of performance reinforcing steel offerings include innovative products such as Galvabar® (galvanized rebar with a zinc alloy coating that provides corrosion protection and post-fabrication formability), ChromX® (designed for high-strength capabilities, corrosion resistance and a service life of more than 100 years) and CryoSteel® (a cryogenic reinforcing steel that exceeds minimum performance requirements for strength and ductility at extremely low temperatures).

The strategy in the Emerging Businesses Group segment is to provide construction-related solutions and value-added products with strong underlying growth fundamentals to serve domestic and international markets that are adjacent to those served by the vertically integrated operations in the North America Steel Group segment and the Europe Steel Group segment. To execute this strategy, the Company (i) develops proprietary products and solutions that deliver high value to customers by reducing costs and construction time, (ii) provides concrete-related construction products, equipment, and services and (iii) produces reinforcing steel products with increased strength, durability and corrosion resistance to support sustainable concrete construction.

As a result of the change in reportable segments, certain prior year amounts have been recast to conform to the current year presentation. Throughout this Form 10-Q, unless otherwise indicated, amounts and activity reflect reclassifications related to the Company's change in reportable segments. The change in reportable segments had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and the condensed consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, cash flows and stockholders’ equity previously reported.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). ASU 2023-07 requires, among other updates, enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM, as well as the aggregate amount of other segment items included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced annual disclosures regarding the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and may be adopted on a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

The majority of the Company's revenue is recognized at a point in time concurrent with the transfer of control, which usually occurs, depending on shipping terms, upon shipment or customer receipt. See Note 13, Segment Information, for further information about disaggregated revenue by the Company's major product lines.

Certain revenue from the Company's downstream products in the North America Steel Group segment is not recognized at a point in time. Revenue resulting from sales of fabricated rebar in the North America Steel Group segment is recognized over time, as discussed below. Revenue resulting from sales of steel fence posts and other downstream products in the North America Steel Group segment is recognized equal to billing under an available practical expedient.

Each of the North America Steel Group segment's fabricated rebar contracts represent a single performance obligation. Revenue from certain fabricated rebar contracts for which the Company provides fabricated product and installation services is recognized over time using an input measure. These contracts represented 8% of net sales in the North America Steel Group segment in each of the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023. Revenue from fabricated rebar contracts for which the Company does not provide installation services is recognized over time using an output measure. These contracts represented 10% and 11% of net sales in the North America Steel Group segment in the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, respectively, and 12% and 13% of net sales in the North America Steel Group segment in the three and six months ended February 28, 2023, respectively.

The following table provides information about assets and liabilities from contracts with customers recognized over time:

The amount of revenue reclassified from August 31, 2023 contract liabilities during the six months ended February 29, 2024 was approximately $23.4 million.

As of February 29, 2024, revenue totaling $1.1 billion has been allocated to remaining performance obligations in the North America Steel Group segment related to contracts for which revenue is recognized using an input or output measure. Of this amount, the Company estimates that approximately 80% of the remaining performance obligations will be recognized in the twelve months following February 29, 2024, and the remainder will be recognized during the subsequent twelve months. The duration of all other contracts in the North America Steel Group, Europe Steel Group and Emerging Businesses Group segments are typically less than one year.

The majority of the Company's inventories are in the form of semi-finished and finished steel products. Under the Company’s vertically integrated business models in the North America Steel Group segment and the Europe Steel Group segment, steel products are sold to external customers in various stages, from semi-finished billets through fabricated steel, leading these categories to be combined as finished goods.

The components of inventories were as follows:

Inventory write-down expense was $10.4 million and $5.5 million during the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, respectively. The inventory write-downs primarily impacted the Europe Steel Group segment and were recorded in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

Goodwill by reportable segment is detailed in the table below. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed its reportable segments as described in Note 1, Nature of Operations and Accounting Policies. Concurrent with the change in reportable segments, the Company reassigned goodwill to the updated reporting units using a relative fair value approach, shown below:

__________________________________

(1) Measurement period adjustments related to the 2023 acquisitions which impacted the amount of goodwill originally reported.

The Company evaluated impairment indicators for the previous reporting units immediately prior to the change in reportable segments and concluded there were no indicators of impairment. Immediately after the change in reportable segments, the Company performed qualitative tests for five reporting units consisting of $285.0 million of goodwill and quantitative tests for three reporting units consisting of $100.8 million of goodwill. The results of the qualitative and quantitative tests indicated it was more likely than not that the fair value of all reporting units with goodwill exceeded their carrying values.

Other indefinite-lived intangible assets consisted of the following:

The change in the balance of intangible assets with indefinite lives from August 31, 2023 to February 29, 2024 was due to foreign currency translation adjustments.

Other intangible assets subject to amortization are detailed in the following table:

The foreign currency translation adjustments for intangible assets subject to amortization were immaterial for all periods presented above.

Amortization expense for intangible assets was $7.0 million and $14.5 million in the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, respectively, of which $4.7 million and $9.4 million, respectively, was recorded in cost of goods sold and $2.3 million and $5.1 million, respectively, was recorded in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.
