Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
The Company and Basis of Presentation | 1. The Company and Basis of Presentation AZZ Inc. (“AZZ”, the “Company”, "our" or “we”) was established in 1956 and incorporated under the laws of the state of Texas. The Company is a global provider of metal coating solutions, coil coating solutions, welding solutions, specialty electrical equipment and highly engineered services to the power generation, transmission, distribution, refining and industrial markets. On May 13, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of the Precoat Metals business division (“Precoat”) of Sequa Corporation (“Sequa”), a portfolio company of global investment firm Carlyle. See Notes 2 and 11 for further discussion about Precoat. As a result of the Precoat Acquisition, the Company changed its reportable segments, and added AZZ Precoat Metals as a new reportable segment. See Note 6 for more information about the Company's segments. The Company has three distinct operating segments: the AZZ Metal Coatings segment, the AZZ Precoat Metals segment and the AZZ Infrastructure Solutions segment. AZZ Metal Coatings provides hot-dip galvanizing, spin galvanizing, powder coating, anodizing and plating, and other metal coating applications to the steel fabrication and other industries through 41 galvanizing plants and six surface technologies plants located in the United States and Canada. AZZ Precoat Metals provides advanced applications of protective and decorative coatings and related value-added services for steel and aluminum coil, primarily serving the construction; appliance; heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC); container; transportation and other end markets. AZZ Precoat Metals operates through 13 plants located in the United States. AZZ Infrastructure Solutions is dedicated to delivering safe and reliable transmission of power from generation sources to end customers, and automated weld overlay solutions for corrosion and erosion mitigation to critical infrastructure in markets worldwide. As discussed in Note 3, on June 23, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement whereby the Company will contribute its AZZ Infrastructure Solutions business, excluding AZZ Crowley Tubing, to a joint venture and sell a 60% interest in the joint venture to Fernweh AIS Acquisition LP. The AZZ Infrastructure Solutions segment is now classified as assets held for sale and is reported as discontinued operations, and financial data for the segment has been segregated and presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 3 and Note 13 for additional information about the Company's discontinued operations and consummation of the joint venture. Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2022 was derived from audited financial statements. The unaudited condensed 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 in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2022, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K covering such period. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. See Note 3 for more information about results of operations and assets and liabilities reclassified as assets held for sale and reported in discontinued operations in the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows as of and for the three and six months ended August 31, 2022 and as of February 28, 2022. The Company's fiscal year ends on the last day of February and is identified as the fiscal year for the calendar year in which it ends. For example, the fiscal year ending February 28, 2023 is referred to as fiscal 2023. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the six months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021. The interim results reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Coronavirus (COVID-19) and Business Environment While we continue to support our customers, there remains continuing uncertainties regarding to what extent, if any, that the COVID-19 pandemic, or newly identified variants of COVID-19, or additional regulatory requirements, will ultimately have on the demand for our products and services or with our supply chain or our employees. We expect continued uncertainty in our business and the global economy due to the duration and intensity of the COVID-19 pandemic, pressure from inflation, supply chain disruptions, and volatility in employment trends and consumer confidence which may impact our results. The impact of COVID-19 to the Company's personnel and operations has been limited during the second quarter of fiscal 2023. However, labor market shortages and supply chain challenges have continued during the quarter, resulting in increased operating expenses as the constrained labor market and supply chain disruptions impacted the availability and cost of skilled labor and materials. Disruptions to certain parts of our supply chain have, in certain cases, limited our ability to fulfill demand in the future. The extent of COVID-19's impact on our business will depend on future developments, including the continued new variants and surges in the spread of COVID-19, the Company's continued ability to source and distribute its products, the impact of COVID-19 on capital and financial markets, and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are uncertain and difficult to predict, considering the continuously evolving landscape. Accordingly, our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be impacted in ways that we are not able to predict today. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. ("ASU") 2021-08, Business combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract liabilities from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2021-08"), which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606") at the acquisition date as if the acquirer had originated the contracts rather than adjust them to fair value. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows as of August 31, 2022, including the acquisition of Precoat Metals during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. In March 2020 and as clarified in January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. An entity may elect to apply the amendments on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or on a prospective basis to new modifications from any date between March 12, 2020 and December 31, 2022. The Company continues to evaluate its contracts and transactions for the potential application of ASU 2020-04, but there has been no material impact to its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows as of August 31, 2022.
