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 the leading independent provider of hot-dip galvanizing and coil coating solutions to a broad array of markets and customers, predominantly in North America. On May 13, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of the Precoat Metals business division (“Precoat Metals”) of Sequa Corporation (“Sequa”), a portfolio company owned by Carlyle, a global private equity firm. See Notes 2 and 14 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 operating 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 September 30, 2022, the Company consummated a transaction whereby the Company contributed its AZZ Infrastructure Solutions business, excluding AZZ Crowley Tubing, to a joint venture and sold a 60% interest in the joint venture to Fernweh AIS Acquisition LP. The AZZ Infrastructure Solutions segment 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 7 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 reported in discontinued operations in the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows as of and for the three and nine months ended November 30, 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 November 30, 2022, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the nine months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021. The interim results reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements And Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | 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 November 30, 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 November 30, 2022.
