(a)
Fair value of equity awards is calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. The fair value of unvested service-based RSUs, as well as the fair value of all RSUs upon vesting, is based upon the closing sales price for a share of Reliance common stock on the NYSE for the applicable date of measurement. The fair value of unvested performance-based RSUs is based upon the probable outcome of the applicable performance conditions at the time of measurement.
​
(b)
Service cost is calculated as the actuarial present value of benefits attributed to services rendered by the executive during the applicable fiscal year under the SERP, using the same methodology used in the Company’s GAAP financial statements included in its Annual Reports on Form 10-K.
​
(4)
Reflects the cumulative total stockholder return of the Company and an industry peer group consisting of publicly-traded metals service center companies (the "industry peer group"), which is the same industry peer group included in the stock performance graph furnished with our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020, the two-years ended December 31, 2021 and the three years ended December 31, 2022, assuming a $100 investment at the closing price on December 31, 2019 and the reinvestment of all dividends. The cumulative total stockholder return reflects market prices at the end of each year and the reinvestment of dividends. Since there is no nationally-recognized industry index consisting of metals service center companies to be used as a peer group index, Reliance constructed the industry peer group. The industry peer group consists of Olympic Steel Inc., which has securities listed for trading on NASDAQ; Ryerson Holding Corporation and Worthington Industries, Inc., each of which has securities listed for trading on the NYSE; and Russel Metals Inc., which has securities listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The returns of each member of the industry peer group are weighted according to that member’s stock market capitalization.

Reflects the "Net Income" caption in the consolidated statements of income included in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for each of the years ended December 31.
​

Annual ROA (operating income divided by average total assets for the year) is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated in accordance with our performance-based restricted stock awards and excludes various non-recurring charges and credits. Please refer to page 40 of this proxy statement for a reconciliation of operating income, excluding various non-recurring charges and credits, to the "operating income" caption in the consolidated statements of income included in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for each of the years ended December 31.
