NEW MARKETS TAX CREDIT TRANSACTIONS | NOTE 8. NEW MARKETS TAX CREDIT TRANSACTIONS During 2016 and 2017, the Company entered into three New Markets Tax Credit (“NMTC”) transactions with U.S. Bancorp Community Development Corporation, a Minnesota corporation ("USBCDC"). The NMTC transactions related to the construction and equipping of the micro mill in Durant, Oklahoma, as well as a rebar spooler and automated T-post shop located on the same site. As of August 31, 2022, $17.7 million of USBCDC’s contributions were classified as accrued expenses and other payables in the consolidated balance sheet and $9.5 million of USBCDC’s contributions were classified as other noncurrent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet, in each case representing deferred revenue to the Company. During December 2022, the seven-year recapture period on the first NMTC transaction, the USBCDC Investment Fund 156, ended, and therefore, the corresponding $17.7 million USBCDC capital contribution was recognized in net sales during the nine months ended May 31, 2023. Additionally, the $2.1 million Qualifying Equity Investment for Twain Investment Fund 222, which was classified as long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2022, will mature in March 2024 and was reclassified to current maturities of long-term debt and short-term borrowings as of May 31, 2023. See Note 10, New Markets Tax Credit Transactions, to the consolidated financial statements in the 2022 Form 10-K for discussion related to the Company's NMTC transactions.
