SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT

Selected statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, in “PART I – Item 2. – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” constitute “forward-looking statements” as that term is used in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”). Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations, estimates or projections concerning future results or events. These statements are often identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “estimate,” “plan,” “foresee,” “likely,” “will,” “should” or other similar words or phrases. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to:

   

outlook, strategy or business plans;

   

the ability to correct performance issues at operations;

   

future or expected growth, forward momentum, performance, sales, volumes, cash flows, earnings, balance sheet strengths, debt, financial condition or other financial measures;

   

projected profitability potential, capacity, and working capital needs;

   

demand trends for us or our markets;

   

additions to product lines and opportunities to participate in new markets;

   

pricing trends for raw materials and finished goods and the impact of pricing changes;

   

anticipated capital expenditures and asset sales;

   

anticipated improvements and efficiencies in costs, operations, sales, inventory management, sourcing and the supply chain and the results thereof;

   

the ability to make acquisitions and the projected timing, results, benefits, costs, charges and expenditures related to acquisitions, newly-created joint ventures, headcount reductions and facility dispositions, shutdowns and consolidations;

   

the alignment of operations with demand;

   

the ability to operate profitably and generate cash in down markets;

   

the ability to maintain margins and capture and maintain market share and to develop or take advantage of future opportunities, customer initiatives, new businesses, new products and new markets;

   

expectations for Company and customer inventories, jobs and orders;

   

expectations for the economy and markets or improvements therein;

   

expected benefits from transformation plans, cost reduction efforts and other new initiatives;

   

expectations for increasing volatility or improving and sustainable earnings, earnings potential, margins or shareholder value;

   

effects of judicial rulings; and

   

other non-historical matters.

Because they are based on beliefs, estimates and assumptions, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Any number of factors could affect actual results, including, without limitation, those that follow:

   

the effect of national, regional and worldwide economic conditions generally and within major product markets, including a recurrent slowing economy;

   

the effect of conditions in national and worldwide financial markets;

   

product demand and pricing;

   

changes in product mix, product substitution and market acceptance of our products;

   

fluctuations in the pricing, quality or availability of raw materials (particularly steel), supplies, transportation, utilities and other items required by operations;

   

effects of facility closures and the consolidation of operations;

   

the effect of financial difficulties, consolidation and other changes within the steel, automotive, construction, oil and gas, and other industries in which we participate;

   

failure to maintain appropriate levels of inventories;

   

financial difficulties (including bankruptcy filings) of original equipment manufacturers, end-users and customers, suppliers, joint venture partners and others with whom we do business;

   

the ability to realize targeted expense reductions from headcount reductions, facility closures and other cost reduction efforts;

   

the ability to realize other cost savings and operational, sales and sourcing improvements and efficiencies, and other expected benefits from transformation initiatives, on a timely basis;

   

the overall success of, and the ability to integrate, newly-acquired businesses and joint ventures, maintain and develop their customers, and achieve synergies and other expected benefits and cost savings therefrom;

 

ii

capacity levels and efficiencies, within facilities, within major product markets and within the industry as a whole;

   

the effect of disruption in the business of suppliers, customers, facilities and shipping operations due to labor strikes or negotiations, adverse weather, casualty events, equipment breakdowns, acts of war or terrorist activities, or other causes;

   

changes in customer demand, inventories, spending patterns, product choices, and supplier choices;

   

risks associated with doing business internationally, including economic, political and social instability, foreign currency exposure and the acceptance of our products in these markets;

   

the ability to improve and maintain processes and business practices to keep pace with the economic, competitive and technological environment;

   

the outcome of adverse claims experience with respect to workers’ compensation, product recalls or product liability, casualty events or other matters;

   

deviation of actual results from estimates and/or assumptions used by us in the application of our significant accounting policies;

   

level of imports and import prices in our markets;

   

the impact of judicial rulings and governmental regulations, both in the United States and abroad, including those adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and other governmental agencies as contemplated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010;

   

the effect of changes to healthcare laws in the United States, which may increase our healthcare and other costs and negatively impact our operations and financial results; and

   

other risks described from time to time in our filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including those described in “PART I – Item 1A. — Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015.

We note these factors for investors as contemplated by the Act. It is impossible to predict or identify all potential risk factors. Consequently, you should not consider the foregoing list to be a complete set of all potential risks and uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on current information as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and we assume no obligation to correct or update any such statements in the future, except as required by applicable law.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE A – Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Worthington Industries, Inc. and consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our,” “Worthington,” or the “Company”). Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for using the equity method. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

dHybrid Systems, LLC (“dHybrid”), Spartan Steel Coating, LLC (“Spartan”), TWB Company, L.L.C. (“TWB”), Worthington Arıtaş Basınçlı Kaplar Sanayi (“Worthington Aritas”), Worthington Energy Innovations, LLC (“WEI”), and Worthington Nitin Cylinders Limited (“Worthington Nitin Cylinders”) in which we own controlling interests of 79.59%, 52%, 55%, 75%, 75%, and 60%, respectively, are 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 other comprehensive income shown as net earnings or comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated statements of earnings and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements for these interim periods, have been included. Operating results for the three months ended August 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2016 (“fiscal 2016”). For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015 (“fiscal 2015”) of Worthington Industries, Inc. (the “2015 Form 10-K”).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, amended accounting guidance was issued that replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The amended guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The amended guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the effect this guidance will have on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. The amended guidance permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We have not selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the amended guidance on our ongoing financial reporting.

In July 2015, amended accounting guidance was issued regarding the measurement of inventory. The amended guidance requires that inventory accounted for under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost methods be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, where net realizable value represents the estimated selling price of inventory in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The amended guidance has no impact on inventory accounted for under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) or retail inventory methods. For public business entities, the amended guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. We are in the process of evaluating the effect this guidance will have on our consolidated financial position and results of operations, and we have not determined the effect of the amended guidance on our ongoing financial reporting.

NOTE B – Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Our investments in affiliated companies that we do not control, either through majority ownership or otherwise, are accounted for using the equity method. These include ArtiFlex Manufacturing, LLC (“ArtiFlex”) (50%), Clarkwestern Dietrich Building Systems LLC (“ClarkDietrich”) (25%), Samuel Steel Pickling Company (31.25%), Serviacero Planos, S. de R. L. de C.V. (“Serviacero”) (50%), Worthington Armstrong Venture (“WAVE”) (50%), Worthington Specialty Processing (“WSP”) (51%), and Zhejiang Nisshin Worthington Precision Specialty Steel Co., Ltd. (10%). WSP is considered to be jointly controlled and not consolidated due to substantive participating rights of the minority partner.

We received distributions from unconsolidated affiliates totaling $21,068,000 during the three months ended August 31, 2015. We have received cumulative distributions from WAVE in excess of our investment balance totaling $58,728,000 at August 31, 2015. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, these excess distributions are reclassified to the liabilities section of our consolidated balance sheet. We will continue to record our equity in the net income of WAVE as a debit to the investment account, and if it becomes positive, it will again be shown as an asset on our consolidated balance sheet. If it becomes obvious that any excess distribution may not be returned (upon joint venture liquidation or otherwise), we will recognize any balance classified as a liability as income immediately.

We use the “cumulative earnings” approach for determining cash flow presentation of distributions from our unconsolidated joint ventures. Distributions received are included in our consolidated statements of cash flows as operating activities, unless the cumulative distributions exceed our portion of the cumulative equity in the net earnings of the joint venture, in which case the excess distributions are deemed to be returns of the investment and are classified as investing activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows.

NOTE C – Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We review the carrying value of our long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite useful lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable.

Impairment testing involves a comparison of the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group to its respective carrying amount. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment exists. If the carrying amount exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows, then a second step is performed to determine the amount of impairment, which would be recorded as an impairment charge in our consolidated statements of earnings.

On March 24, 2015, the Company announced its decision to close its Engineered Cabs facility in Florence, South Carolina. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, management finalized its plan to close the facility and transfer the majority of the business to its Engineered Cabs facility in Greeneville, Tennessee. Certain machinery and equipment will be transferred to the Greeneville facility to support higher volume and the remaining long-lived assets will be liquidated. For the assets to be liquidated, this represents a change in intended use. As a result, management evaluated the recoverability of these assets and determined that long-lived assets with a carrying value of $4,059,000 were no longer recoverable and were in fact impaired. As a result, these long-lived assets were written down to their estimated fair value of $1,059,000 resulting in an impairment charge of $3,000,000 during the three months ended August 31, 2015. The Company ceased production at the Florence facility on September 30, 2015.

As a result of the substantial fall in oil prices, management determined that the long-lived assets related to its oil and gas equipment business in Pressure Cylinders might be impaired. However, the Company’s estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows for each of its five oil and gas equipment facilities indicated that the carrying amounts were expected to be recovered. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows for each plant were significantly higher than their respective carrying values except for the Garden City, Kansas, location, which had total long-lived assets of $36,687,000 at August 31, 2015. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows for this location exceeded book value by less than 5%. It is possible that in the future the estimate of undiscounted cash flows may change resulting in the need to write down these assets to fair value.

NOTE D – Restructuring and Other Expense

We consider restructuring activities to be programs whereby we fundamentally change our operations such as closing and consolidating manufacturing facilities, moving manufacturing of a product to another location, and employee severance (including rationalizing headcount or other significant changes in personnel).

A progression of the liabilities associated with our restructuring activities, combined with a reconciliation to the restructuring and other expense financial statement caption in our consolidated statement of earnings for the three months ended August 31, 2015 is summarized as follows:

 

(in thousands)    Beginning
Balance
     Expense      Payments     Adjustments     Ending

   $ 2,170       $ 3,030       $ (686   $ (15   $ 4,499

Severance expense in the current year consisted primarily of $1,891,000 related to the pending closure of the Engineered Cabs facility in Florence, South Carolina, and $690,000 related to workforce reductions in our oil and gas equipment business within Pressure Cylinders announced on September 22, 2015. The total liability as of August 31, 2015 is expected to be paid in the next twelve months.

NOTE E – Contingent Liabilities and Commitments

We are defendants in certain legal actions. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these actions, which is not clearly determinable at the present time, would not significantly affect our consolidated financial position or future results of operations. We believe that environmental issues will not have a material effect on our capital expenditures, consolidated financial position or future results of operations.

NOTE F – Guarantees

We do not have guarantees that we believe are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our consolidated financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. However, as of August 31, 2015, we were party to an operating lease for an aircraft in which we have guaranteed a residual value at the termination of the lease. The maximum obligation under the terms of this guarantee was approximately $11,433,000 at August 31, 2015. We have also guaranteed the repayment of a term loan entered into by our unconsolidated affiliate, ArtiFlex, which had $1,250,000 outstanding at August 31, 2015. We also have in place approximately $16,189,000 of outstanding letters of credit. These letters of credit are issued to third-party service providers and had no amounts drawn against them at August 31, 2015. Based on current facts and circumstances, we have estimated the likelihood of payment pursuant to these guarantees, and determined that the fair value of our obligation under each guarantee based on those likely outcomes is not material and, therefore, no amounts have been recognized in our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE G – Debt and Receivables Securitization

We maintain a $500,000,000 multi-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a group of lenders that matures in April 2020. Borrowings under the Credit Facility have maturities of less than one year. However, we can extend the term of amounts borrowed by renewing these borrowings for the term of the Credit Facility. We have the option to borrow at rates equal to an applicable margin over the LIBOR, Prime or Fed Funds rates. The applicable margin is determined by our credit rating. The applicable interest rate at August 31, 2015 was 1.257%. Borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility totaled $18,694,000 at August 31, 2015, leaving $481,306,000 available for future use.

We also maintain a $100,000,000 revolving trade accounts receivable securitization facility (the “AR Facility”) which expires in January 2018. The AR Facility has been available throughout fiscal 2016 to date, and was available throughout fiscal 2015. Pursuant to the terms of the AR Facility, certain of our subsidiaries sell their accounts receivable without recourse, on a revolving basis, to Worthington Receivables Corporation (“WRC”), a wholly-owned, consolidated, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary. In turn, WRC may sell without recourse, on a revolving basis, up to $100,000,000 of undivided ownership interests in this pool of accounts receivable to a multi-seller, asset-backed commercial paper conduit (the “Conduit”). Purchases by the Conduit are financed with the sale of A1/P1 commercial paper. We retain an undivided interest in this pool and are subject to risk of loss based on the collectability of the receivables from this retained interest. Because the amount eligible to be sold excludes receivables more than 90 days past due, receivables offset by an allowance for doubtful accounts due to bankruptcy or other cause, concentrations over certain limits with specific customers and certain reserve amounts, we believe additional risk of loss is minimal. The book value of the retained portion of the pool of accounts receivable approximates fair value. As of August 31, 2015, no undivided ownership interests in this pool of accounts receivable had been sold.

The remaining balance of short-term borrowings at August 31, 2015 consisted of $1,249,000 outstanding under various credit facilities maintained by our consolidated affiliate, Worthington Aritas, and $2,096,000 outstanding under a $9,500,000 credit facility maintained by our consolidated affiliate, Worthington Nitin Cylinders. Borrowings outstanding under the Nitin credit facility are currently in default; however, the lender has not called the note and the Company has settled its portion of the obligation.

NOTE J – Stock-Based Compensation

Non-Qualified Stock Options

During the three months ended August 31, 2015, we granted non-qualified stock options covering a total of 153,500 common shares under our stock-based compensation plans. The option price of $30.92 per share was equal to the market price of the underlying common shares at the grant date. The fair value of these stock options, based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, calculated at the grant date, was $9.55 per share. The calculated pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for these stock options, after an estimate for forfeitures, is $1,305,000 and will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year vesting period. The following assumptions were used to value these stock options:

 

Dividend yield

     2.33

Expected volatility

     38.40

Risk-free interest rate

     1.98

Expected term (years)

     6.0   

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common shares and the risk-free interest rate is based on the United States Treasury strip rate for the expected term of the stock options. The expected term was developed using historical exercise experience.

Service-Based Restricted Common Shares

During the three months ended August 31, 2015, we granted an aggregate of 148,850 service-based restricted common shares under our stock-based compensation plans. The fair value of these restricted common shares was equal to the closing market price of the underlying common shares on the date of grant, or $30.92 per share. The calculated pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for these restricted common shares, after an estimate for forfeitures, is $4,096,000 and will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year service-based vesting period.

Performance Share Awards

We have awarded performance shares to certain key employees that are earned based on the level of achievement with respect to corporate targets for cumulative corporate economic value added, earnings per share growth and, in the case of business unit executives, business unit operating income targets for the three-year periods ending May 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018. These performance share awards will be paid, to the extent earned, in common shares of the Company in the fiscal quarter following the end of the applicable three-year performance period. The fair values of our performance shares are determined by the closing market prices of the underlying common shares at their respective grant dates and the pre-tax stock-based compensation expense is based on our periodic assessment of the probability of the targets being achieved and our estimate of the number of common shares that will ultimately be issued. During the three months ended August 31, 2015, we granted performance share awards covering an aggregate of 94,700 common shares (at target levels). The calculated pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for these performance shares is $2,852,000 and will be recognized over the three-year performance period.

NOTE K – Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the three months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 reflected estimated annual effective income tax rates of 31.8% and 32.8%, respectively. The annual effective income tax rates exclude any impact from the inclusion of net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated statements of earnings. Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests are primarily a result of our Spartan, Worthington Nitin Cylinders, Worthington Aritas, and TWB consolidated joint ventures. The earnings attributable to the noncontrolling interests in Spartan and TWB’s U.S. operations do not generate tax expense to Worthington since the investors in Spartan and TWB’s U.S. operations are taxed directly based on the earnings attributable to them. The tax expense of Worthington Aritas and Worthington Nitin Cylinders, both foreign corporations, and TWB’s wholly-owned foreign corporations, is reported in our consolidated tax expense. Management is required to estimate the annual effective income tax rate based upon its forecast of annual pre-tax income for domestic and foreign operations. Our actual effective income tax rate for fiscal 2016 could be materially different from the forecasted rate as of August 31, 2015.

NOTE L – Earnings Per Share

Stock options covering 318,904 and 87,976 common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014, respectively, because the effect would have been anti-dilutive as the exercise price of the stock options was greater than the average market price of the common shares during the period.

NOTE N – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We utilize derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to certain risks related to our ongoing operations. The primary risks managed through the use of derivative instruments include interest rate risk, currency exchange risk and commodity price risk. While certain of our derivative instruments are designated as hedging instruments, we also enter into derivative instruments that are designed to hedge a risk, but are not designated as hedging instruments and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting. These derivative instruments are adjusted to current fair value through earnings at the end of each period.

Interest Rate Risk Management – We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Our objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on cash flows and the market value of our borrowings. We utilize a mix of debt maturities along with both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to manage changes in interest rates. In addition, we enter into interest rate swaps to further manage our exposure to interest rate variations related to our borrowings and to lower our overall borrowing costs.

Currency Exchange Risk Management – We conduct business in several major international currencies and are therefore subject to risks associated with changing foreign exchange rates. We enter into various contracts that change in value as foreign exchange rates change to manage this exposure. Such contracts limit exposure to both favorable and unfavorable currency fluctuations. The translation of foreign currencies into United States dollars also subjects us to exposure related to fluctuating exchange rates; however, derivative instruments are not used to manage this risk.

Commodity Price Risk Management – We are exposed to changes in the price of certain commodities, including steel, natural gas, zinc and other raw materials, and our utility requirements. Our objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with forecasted purchases and sales of these commodities to allow management to focus its attention on business operations. Accordingly, we enter into derivative contracts to manage the associated price risk.

We are exposed to counterparty credit risk on all of our derivative instruments. Accordingly, we have established and maintain strict counterparty credit guidelines and enter into derivative instruments only with major financial institutions. We have credit support agreements in place with certain counterparties to limit our credit exposure. These agreements require either party to post cash collateral if its cumulative market position exceeds a predefined liability threshold. At August 31, 2015, we had posted total cash collateral of $2,711,000 to our margin accounts. Amounts posted to the margin accounts accrue interest at market rates and are required to be refunded in the period in which the cumulative market position falls below the required threshold. We do not have significant exposure to any one counterparty and management believes the risk of loss is remote and, in any event, would not be material.

Refer to “Note O – Fair Value” for additional information regarding the accounting treatment for our derivative instruments, as well as how fair value is determined.

Cash Flow Hedges

We enter into derivative instruments to hedge our exposure to changes in cash flows attributable to interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity price fluctuations associated with certain forecasted transactions. These derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same financial statement caption associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is recognized in earnings immediately.

This amount was computed using the fair value of the cash flow hedges at August 31, 2015, and will change before actual reclassification from OCI to net earnings during the fiscal years ending May 31, 2016 and 2017.

Economic (Non-designated) Hedges

We enter into foreign currency contracts to manage our foreign exchange exposure related to inter-company and financing transactions that do not meet the requirements for hedge accounting treatment. We also enter into certain commodity contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, these derivative instruments are adjusted to current market value at the end of each period through earnings.

NOTE O – Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is an exit price concept that assumes an orderly transaction between willing market participants and is required to be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. Current accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy as a basis for considering such assumptions and for classifying the inputs used in the valuation methodologies. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair values are as follows:

 

Level 1

      Observable prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2

      Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 3

      Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

The fair value of our derivative contracts is based on the present value of the expected future cash flows considering the risks involved, including non-performance risk, and using discount rates appropriate for the respective maturities. Market observable, Level 2 inputs are used to determine the present value of the expected future cash flows. Refer to “Note N – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” for additional information regarding our use of derivative instruments.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, management reviewed certain long-lived assets of its Engineered Cabs facility in Florence, South Carolina, for impairment. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, long-lived assets with a carrying value of $4,059,000 were written down to their estimated fair value of $1,059,000 resulting in an impairment charge of $3,000,000 during the three months ended August 31, 2015. Comparable market transactions were used to measure fair value. Refer to “NOTE C – Impairment of Long-Lived Assets” for additional information.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, management reviewed certain intangible assets related to our CNG fuel systems joint venture, dHybrid, for impairment. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, the intangible assets were written down to their fair value of $600,000, resulting in an impairment charge of $2,344,000. The key assumptions that drove the fair value calculation were projected cash flows and the discount rate.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company concluded that an interim impairment test of the goodwill of its Engineered Cabs operating segment was necessary. Prior to conducting the goodwill impairment test, the Company first evaluated the other long-lived assets of the Engineered Cabs operating segment for recoverability. Recoverability was tested using future cash flow projections based on management’s long-range estimates of market conditions. The sum of the undiscounted future cash flows for the customer relationship intangible asset and the property, plant and equipment of the Florence, South Carolina facility were less than their respective carrying values. As a result, these assets were written down to their respective fair values of $2,000,000 and $9,803,000. The fair value measurements were based on Level 3 inputs not observable in the market. The key assumptions that drove the fair value calculations were projected cash flows and the discount rate.

The fair value of non-derivative financial instruments included in the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, notes receivable, income taxes receivable, other assets, accounts payable, short-term borrowings, accrued compensation, contributions to employee benefit plans and related taxes, other accrued items, income taxes payable and other liabilities approximate carrying value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities, based upon models utilizing market observable (Level 2) inputs and credit risk, was $596,651,000 and $610,028,000 at August 31, 2015 and May 31, 2015, respectively. The carrying amount of long-term debt, including current maturities, was $581,747,000 and $580,193,000 at August 31, 2015 and May 31, 2015, respectively.

Item 2. — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Selected statements contained in this “Item 2. – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” constitute “forward-looking statements” as that term is used in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are based, in whole or in part, on management’s beliefs, estimates, assumptions and currently available information. For a more detailed discussion of what constitutes a forward-looking statement and of some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements, please refer to the “Safe Harbor Statement” in the beginning of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “Part I - Item 1A. - Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015.

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis of market and industry trends, business developments, and the results of operations and financial position of Worthington Industries, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our,” “Worthington,” or our “Company”), should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in “Item 1. – Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015 (“fiscal 2015”) includes additional information about Worthington, our operations and our consolidated financial position and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As of August 31, 2015, excluding our joint ventures, we operated 33 manufacturing facilities worldwide, principally in three operating segments, which correspond with our reportable business segments: Steel Processing, Pressure Cylinders and Engineered Cabs. Our remaining operating segments, which do not meet the applicable aggregation criteria or quantitative thresholds for separate disclosure, are combined and reported in the “Other” category. These include Construction Services and Worthington Energy Innovations (“WEI”). The Company is in the process of exiting the businesses within Construction Services.

We also held equity positions in 13 active joint ventures, which operated 51 manufacturing facilities worldwide, as of August 31, 2015. Six of these joint ventures are consolidated with the equity owned by the other joint venture member(s) shown as noncontrolling interests in our consolidated balance sheets, and the other joint venture member(s)’ portion of net earnings and other comprehensive income shown as net earnings or comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated statements of earnings and consolidated statements of comprehensive income, respectively. The remaining seven of these joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.

Overview

The Company generated solid earnings during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 despite challenging market conditions resulting from declining steel and oil prices. Inventory holding losses in Steel Processing and lower volume in the oil and gas equipment business in Pressure Cylinders weighed on earnings; however, lower overall manufacturing costs and improved operations in the industrial gas and consumer product end markets in Pressure Cylinders helped to offset the impact. Demand remained steady in most of our key end markets, with the exception of the oil and gas equipment, construction and agriculture end markets. The Company continues to take action to reduce the cost structure of certain facilities serving these markets in order to remain cash flow positive. During the current quarter, the Company announced an additional workforce reduction at three of its five oil and gas equipment facilities. The previously announced closure of the Company’s Engineered Cabs facility in Florence, South Carolina, remains on track, as the Company ceased production at the facility on September 30, 2015, and is in the process of transferring certain business to the Engineered Cabs facility in Greeneville, Tennessee.

Equity in net income of unconsolidated affiliates (“equity income”) was down 5% from the prior year quarter driven by $1.7 million of product development expenses related to the alternative fuels business and lower earnings at Serviacero, which was negatively impacted by lower steel prices. Record earnings at WAVE and higher contributions from ClarkDietrich, Samuel and ArtiFlex partially offset the overall decrease in equity income. We received cash distributions of $21.1 million from our unconsolidated affiliates during the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Recent Business Developments

 

   

During the quarter, the Company repurchased a total of 1,000,000 common shares for $27.6 million at an average price of $27.58.

On September 23, 2015, the board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.19 per share payable on December 29, 2015 to shareholders of record on December 15, 2015.

Market & Industry Overview

We sell our products and services to a diverse customer base and a broad range of end markets. The breakdown of our net sales by end market for the first three months of each of fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015 is illustrated in the following chart:

 

LOGO

The automotive industry is one of the largest consumers of flat-rolled steel, and thus the largest end market for our Steel Processing operating segment. Approximately 60% of the net sales of our Steel Processing operating segment are to the automotive market. North American vehicle production, primarily by Chrysler, Ford and General Motors (the “Detroit Three automakers”), has a considerable impact on the activity within this operating segment. The majority of the net sales of four of our unconsolidated joint ventures are also to the automotive end market.

Approximately 10% of the net sales of our Steel Processing operating segment, 60% of the net sales of our Engineered Cabs operating segment and substantially all of the net sales of our Construction Services operating segment are to the construction market. The construction market is also the predominant end market for two of our unconsolidated joint ventures: WAVE and ClarkDietrich. While the market price of steel significantly impacts these businesses, there are other key indicators that are meaningful in analyzing construction market demand, including U.S. gross domestic product (“GDP”), the Dodge Index of construction contracts and, in the case of ClarkDietrich, trends in the relative price of framing lumber and steel.

Substantially all of the net sales of our Pressure Cylinders operating segment, and approximately 30% and 40% of the net sales of our Steel Processing and Engineered Cabs operating segments, respectively, are to other markets such as consumer products, industrial, lawn and garden, agriculture, oil and gas equipment, heavy truck, mining, forestry and appliance. Given the many different products that make up these net sales and the wide variety of end markets, it is very difficult to detail the key market indicators that drive this portion of our business. However, we believe that the trend in U.S. GDP growth is a good economic indicator for analyzing these operating segments.

We use the following information to monitor our costs and demand in our major end markets:

U.S. GDP growth rate trends are generally indicative of the strength in demand and, in many cases, pricing for our products. A year-over-year increase in U.S. GDP growth rates is indicative of a stronger economy, which generally increases demand and pricing for our products. Conversely, decreasing U.S. GDP growth rates generally indicate a weaker economy. Changes in U.S. GDP growth rates can also signal changes in conversion costs related to production and in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense.

The market price of hot-rolled steel is one of the most significant factors impacting our selling prices and operating results. When steel prices fall we typically have higher-priced material flowing through cost of goods sold, while selling prices compress to what the market will bear, negatively impacting our results. On the other hand, in a rising price environment, our results are generally favorably impacted, as lower-priced material purchased in previous periods flows through cost of goods sold, while our selling prices increase at a faster pace to cover current replacement costs.

The following table presents the average quarterly market price per ton of hot-rolled steel during fiscal 2016, fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014:

No single customer contributed more than 10% of our consolidated net sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. While our automotive business is largely driven by the production schedules of the Detroit Three automakers, our customer base is much broader and includes other domestic manufacturers and many of their suppliers. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, overall vehicle production for the Detroit Three automakers was up 5% and North American vehicle production as a whole increased 7%.

Certain other commodities, such as zinc, natural gas and diesel fuel, represent a significant portion of our cost of goods sold, both directly through our plant operations and indirectly through transportation and freight expense.

Net earnings attributable to controlling interest for the three months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $12.8 million from the comparable period in the prior year. Net sales and operating highlights were as follows:

 

   

Net sales decreased $104.3 million from the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease was driven by lower volume in all business segments, which reduced net sales by $79.4 million, combined with lower average selling prices in Steel Processing driven by the decline in the market price of steel.

 

   

Gross margin decreased $16.5 million from the comparable period in the prior year on lower volume and the unfavorable impact of inventory holding losses in Steel Processing in the current period compared to gains in the prior year period. Lower manufacturing expenses partially offset the overall decrease in gross margin.

 

   

SG&A expense increased slightly over the comparable prior year period to $75.9 million as the impact of acquisitions was partially offset by lower profit sharing and bonus expense.

 

   

Impairment charges of $3.0 million in the current period related to the pending closure of the Engineered Cabs facility in Florence, South Carolina. Impairment charges in the comparable prior year period related to the Company’s stainless steel business, Precision Specialty Metals, Inc. (“PSM”). For additional information, refer to “Item 1. – Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – NOTE C – Impairment of Long-Lived Assets” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

   

Restructuring and other expense of $3.1 million in the current period consisted primarily of accruals for employee severance costs related to the pending closure of the Florence facility in Engineered Cabs ($1.9 million) and the recently announced workforce reductions in our oil and gas equipment businesses ($690,000).

 

   

Interest expense of $7.9 million was $1.6 million lower than the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease was driven by lower average debt levels.

 

   

Equity income decreased $1.3 million from the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease was driven by $1.7 million of product development expenses related to the alternative fuels business and lower earnings at Serviacero,

which was negatively impacted by lower steel prices. Record earnings at WAVE and higher contributions from ClarkDietrich, Samuel and ArtiFlex partially offset the overall decrease in equity income. For additional financial information regarding our unconsolidated affiliates, refer to “Item 1. – Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – NOTE B – Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

   

Income tax expense decreased $7.4 million from the comparable period in the prior year due primarily to lower earnings. The current quarter expense of $14.7 million was calculated using an estimated annual effective income tax rate of 31.8% versus 32.8% in the prior year quarter. Refer to “Item 1. – Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – NOTE K – Income Taxes” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on our tax rates.

Net sales and operating highlights were as follows:

 

   

Net sales decreased $61.5 million from the comparable period in the prior year. Declining steel prices led to lower average selling prices, which reduced net sales by $41.8 million. Volume also declined in the current period reducing net sales by an additional $19.7 million as lower tolling volume more than offset contributions from the recent acquisition of Rome Strip Steel. The mix of direct versus toll tons processed was 63% to 37% compared to 60% to 40% in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

   

Operating income decreased $12.3 million from the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease was driven primarily by the unfavorable impact of inventory holding losses in the current period compared to inventory holding gains in the prior year period. Restructuring and other expense in the current period consisted of severance accruals related primarily to the closure of PSM.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended August 31, 2015, we generated $137.8 million of cash from operating activities, invested $38.5 million in property, plant and equipment and paid dividends of $11.6 million on our common shares.

We believe we have access to adequate resources to meet our needs for normal operating costs, mandatory capital expenditures and debt redemptions, dividend payments and working capital for our existing businesses. These resources include cash and cash equivalents, cash provided by operating activities and unused lines of credit. We also believe that we have adequate access to the financial markets to allow us to be in a position to sell long-term debt or equity securities. However, uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets may impact our ability to access capital and the terms under which we can do so.

The cash and cash equivalents balance at August 31, 2015 included $4.4 million of cash held by subsidiaries outside of the United States that the Company intends to indefinitely reinvest. Although the majority of this cash is available for repatriation, bringing the money into the United States could trigger federal, state and local income tax obligations. We do not have any intentions to repatriate this cash.

Operating Activities

Our business is cyclical and cash flows from operating activities may fluctuate during the year and from year to year due to economic conditions. We rely on cash and short-term borrowings to meet cyclical increases in working capital needs. These needs generally rise during periods of increased economic activity or increasing raw material prices due to higher levels of inventory and accounts receivable. During economic slowdowns, or periods of decreasing raw material costs, working capital needs generally decrease as a result of the reduction of inventories and accounts receivable.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $137.8 million during the three months ended August 31, 2015 compared to $54.5 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2015. The increase was driven primarily by declining working capital levels as a result of lower steel prices.

Investing Activities

Net cash used by investing activities was $40.1 million during the three months ended August 31, 2015 compared to $69.0 million in the prior year period. The decrease from the prior year period was driven primarily by the absence of acquisitions partially offset by higher capital expenditures. There were no acquisitions completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2016; however, in the comparable period in the prior year, the Company spent a combined $36.6 million, net of cash acquired, for the net assets of Midstream Equipment Fabrication LLC and James Russell Engineering Works, Inc.

Investment activities are largely discretionary, and future investment activities could be reduced significantly, or eliminated, as economic conditions warrant. We assess acquisition opportunities as they arise, and such opportunities may require additional financing. There can be no assurance, however, that any such opportunities will arise, that any such acquisitions will be consummated, or that any needed additional financing will be available on satisfactory terms when required.

Financing Activities

Net cash used by financing activities was $110.0 million during the three months ended August 31, 2015 compared to $28.7 million in the prior year period. Short-term borrowings declined $68.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 as the $60.0 million outstanding under our revolving trade accounts receivable securitization facility (the “AR Facility”) at May 31, 2015, was paid in full. Additionally, we paid $27.6 million to repurchase 1,000,000 of our common shares and paid dividends of $11.6 million on our common shares.

Table of Contents

As of August 31, 2015, we were in compliance with our short-term and long-term debt covenants. These debt agreements do not include credit rating triggers or material adverse change provisions. Our credit ratings at August 31, 2015 were unchanged from those reported as of May 31, 2015.

Common shares - The Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.19 per common share for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to $0.18 per common share for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Dividends paid on our common shares totaled $11.6 million during the three months ended August 31, 2015, compared to $10.1 million in the prior year period. On September 23, 2015, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.19 per common share payable on December 29, 2015 to shareholders of record on December 15, 2015.

On June 25, 2014, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to 10,000,000 of our outstanding common shares. A total of 3,453,855 common shares have been repurchased under this authorization, including 1,000,000 during the first quarter of fiscal 2016, leaving 6,546,145 common shares available for repurchase.

The common shares available for repurchase under this authorization may be purchased from time to time, with consideration given to the market price of the common shares, the nature of other investment opportunities, cash flows from operations, general economic conditions and other relevant considerations. Repurchases may be made on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions.

Dividend Policy

We currently have no material contractual or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends. Dividends are declared at the discretion of the Board. The Board reviews the dividend quarterly and establishes the dividend rate based upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, current and projected cash flows, business prospects and other relevant factors. While we have paid a dividend every quarter since becoming a public company in 1968, there is no guarantee that payments will continue in the future.

Contractual Cash Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments

Our contractual cash obligations and other commercial commitments have not changed significantly from those disclosed in “Part II – Item 7. – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Contractual Cash Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments” of our 2015 Form 10-K, other than the changes in borrowings, as described in “Part I – Item 1. – Financial Statements - NOTE G – Debt and Receivables Securitization” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have guarantees or other off-balance sheet financing arrangements that we believe are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our consolidated financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. However, as of August 31, 2015, we were party to an operating lease for an aircraft in which we have guaranteed a residual value at the termination of the lease. The maximum obligation under the terms of this guarantee was approximately $11.4 million at August 31, 2015. We have also guaranteed the repayment of a term loan entered into by our unconsolidated affiliate, ArtiFlex, which had $1.3 million outstanding at August 31, 2015. In addition, we had in place approximately $16.2 million of outstanding letters of credit at August 31, 2015. These letters of credit were issued to third-party service providers and had no amounts drawn against them at August 31, 2015. Based on current facts and circumstances, we have estimated the likelihood of payment pursuant to these guarantees and determined that the fair value of our obligation under each guarantee based on those likely outcomes is not material.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, amended accounting guidance was issued that replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The amended guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The amended guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the effect this guidance will have on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. The amended guidance permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We have not selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the amended guidance on our ongoing financial reporting.

Table of Contents

In July 2015, amended accounting guidance was issued regarding the measurement of inventory. The amended guidance requires that inventory accounted for under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost methods be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, where net realizable value represents the estimated selling price of inventory in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The amended guidance has no impact on inventory accounted for under the last-in, first-out (LIFO) or retail inventory methods. For public business entities, the amended guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. We are in the process of evaluating the effect this guidance will have on our consolidated financial position and results of operations, and we have not determined the effect of the amended guidance on our ongoing financial reporting.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to our valuation of receivables, intangible assets, accrued liabilities, income and other tax accruals, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily obtained from other sources. Critical accounting policies are defined as those that require our significant judgments and involve uncertainties that could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Although actual results historically have not deviated significantly from those determined using our estimates, our financial position or results of operations could be materially different if we were to report under different conditions or to use different assumptions in the application of such policies. Our critical accounting policies have not significantly changed from those discussed in “Part II – Item 7. – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” of our 2015 Form 10-K.

We review our receivables on an ongoing basis to ensure they are properly valued. Based on this review, we believe our reserve for doubtful accounts is adequate. However, if the economic environment and market conditions deteriorate, particularly in the automotive and construction markets where our exposure is greatest, additional reserves may be required. We recognize revenue upon transfer of title and risk of loss provided evidence of an arrangement exists, pricing is fixed and determinable, and the ability to collect is probable. In circumstances where the collection of payment is not probable at the time of shipment, we defer recognition of revenue until payment is collected.

We review the carrying value of our long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite useful lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable.

Impairment testing involves a comparison of the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset or asset group to its respective carrying amount. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment exists. If the carrying amount exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows, then a second step is performed to determine the amount of impairment, which would be recorded as an impairment charge in our consolidated statements of earnings.

On March 24, 2015, the Company announced its decision to close its Engineered Cabs facility in Florence, South Carolina. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, management finalized its plan to close the facility and transfer the majority of the business to its Engineered Cabs facility in Greeneville, Tennessee. Certain machinery and equipment will be transferred to the Greeneville facility to support higher volume and the remaining long-lived assets will be liquidated. For the assets to be liquidated, this represents a change in intended use. As a result, management evaluated the recoverability of these assets and determined that long-lived assets with a carrying value of $4.1 million were no longer recoverable and were in fact impaired. As a result, these long-lived assets were written down to their estimated fair value of $1.1 million resulting in an impairment charge of $3.0 million during the three months ended August 31, 2015. The Company ceased production at the Florence facility on September 30, 2015.

As a result of the substantial fall in oil prices, management determined that the long-lived assets related to its oil and gas equipment business in Pressure Cylinders might be impaired. However, the Company’s estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows for each of its five oil and gas equipment facilities indicated that the carrying amounts were expected to be recovered.

The estimated undiscounted future cash flows for each plant were significantly higher than their respective carrying values except for the Garden City, Kansas, location, which had total long-lived assets of $36.7 million at August 31, 2015. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows for this location exceeded book value by less than 5%. It is possible that in the future the estimate of undiscounted cash flows may change resulting in the need to write down these assets to fair value.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually, during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may be present. Application of goodwill impairment testing involves judgment, including but not limited to, the identification of reporting units and the estimation of the fair value of each reporting unit. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. We test goodwill at the operating segment level as we have determined that the characteristics of the reporting units within each operating segment are similar and allow for their aggregation in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance.

The goodwill impairment test consists of comparing the fair value of each operating segment, determined using discounted cash flows, to each operating segment’s respective carrying value. If the estimated fair value of an operating segment exceeds its carrying value, there is no impairment. If the carrying amount of the operating segment exceeds its estimated fair value, a goodwill impairment is indicated. The amount of the impairment is determined by comparing the fair value of the net assets of the operating segment, excluding goodwill, to its estimated fair value, with the difference representing the implied fair value of the goodwill. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is lower than its carrying value, the difference is recorded as an impairment charge in the applicable consolidated statement of earnings. We performed our annual impairment evaluation of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 and concluded that the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value; therefore, no impairment charges were recognized. Additionally, no impairment indicators were present with regard to our goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite useful lives during the three months ended August 31, 2015.

Item 3. - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risks have not changed significantly from those disclosed in “Part II - Item 7A. – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of our 2015 Form 10-K.

Item 4. - Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures [as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)] that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2015). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2015, the Company implemented a new enterprise performance management system. This system was implemented to increase the overall efficiency of the consolidation and financial reporting processes and not in response to any deficiency or material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. While the Company has not completed the testing of the operating effectiveness of all key controls in the new system, we believe that effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained during and after the conversion. There were no other changes that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2015) in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. - Legal Proceedings

Various legal actions, which generally have arisen in the ordinary course of business, are pending against the Company. None of this pending litigation, individually or collectively, is expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. – Risk Factors

There are certain risks and uncertainties in our business that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. In “PART I – Item 1A. — Risk Factors” of the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Worthington Industries, Inc. for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015 (the “2015 Form 10-K”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 30, 2015, and available at www.sec.gov or at www.worthingtonindustries.com, we included a detailed discussion of our risk factors. Our risk factors have not changed significantly from those disclosed in our 2015 Form 10-K. These risk factors should be read carefully in connection with evaluating our business and in connection with the forward-looking statements and other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Any of the risks described in our 2015 Form 10-K could materially affect our business, consolidated financial condition or future results and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made. The risk factors described in our 2015 Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or future results.
