Business Combinations and Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates |
Business Combinations and Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates | Note 2. Business Combinations and Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates Business Combinations ROCA The company acquired 100% of ROCA ACERO, S.A. de C.V. (ROCA) on October 1, 2022. The acquisition of ROCA is part of the company’s North American raw material procurement strategy. ROCA is headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, and operates ferrous and nonferrous scrap facilities strategically positioned near high-volume industrial scrap sources located throughout Central and Northern Mexico. The transaction was funded with available cash. Post-acquisition operating results are reflected in the company’s financial statements in the metals recycling operations segment. Note 2. Business Combinations and Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates (Continued) Aluminum Dynamics The company attained a 94.4% equity interest in a joint venture concurrently formed with Unity Aluminum, Inc. on July 29, 2022, for the construction and operation of a new state-of-the-art low-carbon recycled aluminum flat rolled products mill. The transaction was funded with available cash. Operating results from and after July 29, 2022, are reflected in the company’s consolidated financial statements in the aluminum operations segment. Prior periods, when amounts were recorded in Other, have been recast to reflect this new segment. ​ United Steel Supply The company purchased a 75% equity interest in United Steel Supply, LLC (USS) on March 1, 2019. On April 1, 2022, the company purchased an additional 12.5% equity interest in USS. On April 1, 2023, a noncontrolling member of USS exercised its option to require SDI to purchase its 2.5% equity interest, increasing SDI’s ownership to 90%. The remaining noncontrolling members’ option to require SDI to purchase the remaining 10% equity interest of USS has been extended to on or after February 28, 2025. The USS noncontrolling interest is therefore reflected in redeemable noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheets. ​ Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates The company purchased a 45% minority equity interest in New Process Steel, L.P. (NPS) on January 31, 2022. NPS is a metals solutions and distribution supply-chain management company headquartered in Houston, Texas, with a focus toward growing its value-added manufacturing applications. On February 28, 2022, the company also purchased a minority equity interest in Aymium, a producer of renewable biocarbon products. As the company does not have power to control these entities, the company accounts for these investments using the equity method of accounting, which are recorded in Other Assets (noncurrent) in the company’s consolidated balance sheets with related activity recorded in Other (Income) Expense, net. Profits or losses from transactions with NPS are eliminated until realized by the majority equity interest owner. ​
