GROWING OUR FAMI LY
1
WE ARE A DIVERSE FAMILY OF COMPANIES.
WITH EACH NEW MEMBER COMES NEW VALUE.
Delivering exceptional results with our broad expertise and deep resources. Building and
maintaining strong partnerships in local markets and communities. Striving to create a working
environment that makes our employees proud. Innovating solutions to fit customers’ specific
needs. Acquiring successful companies that share our values and culture. Committed
to product and end-market diversity. Providing the highest quality of service. Always seeking
opportunities to improve. Through the years, the companies we have acquired have helped us
to meet our continuing goal of being not just the biggest, but the best. These are the (not-so)
secrets to our success.
(1) Gross profit, calculated as net sales less cost of sales, is a non-GAAP financial measure as it excludes depreciation and amortization expense associated with the
corresponding sales. The majority of our orders are basic distribution with no processing services performed. For the remainder of our sales orders, we perform “first-stage”
processing, which is generally not labor intensive as we are simply cutting the metal to size. Because of this, the amount of related labor and overhead, including depreciation
and amortization, are not significant and are excluded from our cost of sales. Therefore, our cost of sales is primarily comprised of the cost of the material we sell. We use
gross profit as shown above as a measure of operating performance. Gross profit is an important operating and financial measure, as fluctuations in gross profit can have a
significant impact on our earnings. Gross profit, as presented, is not necessarily comparable with similarly titled measures for other companies.
(2) Operating expenses include warehouse, delivery, selling, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, and impairment charge.
(3) Includes the long-term portion of capital lease obligations.
