See notes to consolidated financial statements. 3 STEEL DYNAMICS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1. Summary of Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Steel Dynamics, Inc. (SDI), together with its subsidiaries, including New Millennium Building Systems LLC (NMBS), after elimination of the significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Minority interest represents the minority shareholders' proportionate share in the equity or income of the company's consolidated subsidiaries. During the first quarter of 2003, the company increased its ownership interest in NMBS from 46.6% to 100%. Use of Estimates. These financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and, accordingly, include amounts that are based on management's estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and in the notes thereto. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results. These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the company's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Prior Year Reclassifications. In accordance with the Financial Accounting and Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 145 (FAS 145), "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections," the company has reclassified its extraordinary loss on extinguishment of debt of $3.2 million, recorded in March 2002, as selling, general and administrative expense and the corresponding income tax effect. This reclassification had no effect on net income as previously reported. Stock-Based Compensation. In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148 (FAS 148), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure," which amends FASB Statement No. 123 (FAS 123), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." FAS 148 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002, and gives further guidance regarding methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and regarding disclosure requirements as previously defined in FAS 123. At March 31, 2003, the company had three incentive stock option plans and accounted for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting and Standards Board APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. Under APB 25, no stock-based employee compensation cost related to the incentive stock option plans is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123 to its stock-based employee compensation for the three months ended March 31 (in thousands, except per share data):
2003 2002 ---------- ---------- Net income, as reported ............................................... $ 15,778 $ 1,640 Total stock-based employee compensation expense using the fair value based method, net of related tax effects (583) (491) ---------- ---------- Pro forma net income .................................................. $ 15,195 $ 1,149 ========== ========== Basic earnings per share: As reported ........................................................ $ .33 $ .04 Pro forma .......................................................... .32 .03 Diluted earnings per share: As reported ....................................................... $ .33 $ .04 Pro forma ......................................................... .32 .03
For purposes of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the vesting period. No individual options were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. The fair values at the date of grant are estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: no-dividend-yield, risk-free interest rates from 3.2% to 7.1%, expected volatility from 30% to 62% and expected lives from two months to eight years. Note 2. Earnings Per Share The company computes and presents earnings per common share in accordance with FASB Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share assumes, in addition to the above, the weighted average dilutive effect of common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents represent dilutive stock options and dilutive convertible subordinated debt and are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect. The difference between the company's basic and diluted earnings per 4 STEEL DYNAMICS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS share is solely attributable to stock options. The following table presents the common share equivalents that were excluded from the company's dilutive earnings per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive at March 31 (in thousands):
2003 2002 ------ ----- Stock options ............................ 1,609 930 Convertible subordinated debt ............ 6,763 -- ------ ----- Total anti-dilutive share equivalents 8,372 930 ====== =====
Note 3. Comprehensive Income The following table presents the company's components of comprehensive income, net of related tax, for the three months ended March 31 (in thousands):
2003 2002 -------- ------ Net income available to common shareholders ......... $ 15,778 $1,640 Unrealized gain on derivative instruments ...... 387 607 Unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities (57) -- -------- ------ Comprehensive income ................................ $ 16,108 $2,247 ======== ======
The company recorded a loss from hedging activities of approximately $257,000 and a gain of approximately $45,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, and 2002, respectively. Note 4. Inventories Inventories are stated at lower of cost (principally standard cost which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Inventory consisted of the following (in thousands):

Note 5. Segment Information The company has two reportable segments: steel operations and steel scrap substitute operations. The steel operations segment includes the company's Flat Roll Division, Structural and Rail Division, and Bar Products Division. The Flat Roll Division sells a broad range of hot-rolled, cold-rolled and coated steel products, including a large variety of specialty products such as thinner gauge hot-rolled products and galvanized products. The Flat Roll Division sells directly to end-users and service centers, including Heidtman, located primarily in the Midwestern United States and these products are used in numerous industry sectors, including the automotive, construction and commercial industries. The company began significant construction of its Structural and Rail Division in May 2001, with structural steel production commencing in the third quarter of 2002. Construction of the rail facility is continuing, with initial test production anticipated to commence in the second quarter of 2003. This facility produces and sells structural steel beams, pilings, and other steel components directly to end-users and service centers for the construction, transportation and industrial machinery markets. This facility is also designed to produce and sell a variety of standard and premium-grade rails for the railroad industry. On September 9, 2002, the company purchased the special bar quality mini-mill assets of Qualitech Steel SBQ, LLC. The company plans to invest between $70 and $75 million of additional capital to convert the facility to the production of merchant bars and shapes and reinforcing bar products, with an anticipated annual production capacity of between 500,000 and 600,000 tons. The company anticipates initial production will begin during the first quarter of 2004 and anticipates marketing the bar products directly to end-users and to service centers for the construction, transportation and industrial machinery markets. Steel scrap substitute operations include the revenues and expenses associated with the company's wholly owned subsidiary, Iron Dynamics. From the time operations were halted in 2001 through the fourth quarter of 2002, the costs incurred at IDI were composed of those expenses required to maintain the facility and further evaluate the project and its related benefits. On July 10, 2002, IDI announced that it would begin experimental production trials in the fourth quarter of 2002. These trials utilized a modified production process. IDI successfully completed certain operating trials which may significantly reduce the eventual per-unit cost of liquid pig iron production. 5 STEEL DYNAMICS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Additional modifications and refinements required to implement this modified production process at the IDI facility are estimated to cost approximately $14.0 million, and are expected to be completed during 2003. The company recently announced its intent to restart IDI during the second half of 2003. Revenues included in the category "All Other" are from two subsidiary operations that are below the quantitative thresholds required for reportable segments. These revenues are from the fabrication of trusses, girders, steel joists and steel decking for the non-residential construction industry; from the further processing, or slitting, and sale of certain steel products; and from the resale of certain secondary and excess steel products. In addition, "All Other" also includes certain unallocated corporate accounts, such as the company's senior secured credit facilities, senior unsecured notes, convertible subordinated notes and certain other investments. The company's operations are primarily organized and managed by operating segment. Operating segment performance and resource allocations are primarily based on operating results before income taxes. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are consistent with those described in Note 1 to the financial statements. Certain amounts in 2002 have been reclassified as a result of the company's compliance with FAS 145 as discuss in Note 1. Intersegment sales and any related profits are eliminated in consolidation. The external net sales of the company's steel operations include sales to non-U.S. companies of $40.3 million and $2.5 million, for the three-months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The company's segment results are as follows (in thousands):

8 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of these risks and uncertainties, including those set forth in our Form 10-K under "Forward-Looking Statements" and under "Risk Factors." You should read the following discussion in conjunction with "Selected Financial Data" set forth in our Form 10-K and our consolidated financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this filing. BUSINESS OUTLOOK INCOME STATEMENT CLASSIFICATION NET SALES. Our total net sales are a factor of net tons shipped, product mix and related pricing. Our net sales are determined by subtracting product returns, sales discounts, return allowances and claims from total sales. We charge premium prices for certain grades of steel, dimensions of product, or certain smaller volumes, based on our cost of production. We also charge marginally higher prices for our value-added products from our cold mill. These products include hot-rolled and cold-rolled galvanized products and cold-rolled products. COST OF GOODS SOLD. Our cost of goods sold represents all direct and indirect costs associated with the manufacture of our products. The principal elements of these costs are steel scrap and scrap substitutes, alloys, natural gas, argon, direct and indirect labor benefits, electricity, oxygen, electrodes, depreciation and freight. Our metallic raw materials, steel scrap and scrap substitutes, represent the most significant component of our cost of goods sold. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of all costs associated with our sales, finance and accounting, materials and transportation, and administrative departments. These costs include labor and benefits, professional services, financing cost amortization, property taxes, profit-sharing expense and start-up costs associated with new projects. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense consists of interest associated with our senior credit facilities and other debt agreements as described in the notes to our financial statements contained elsewhere in this filing, net of capitalized interest costs that are related to construction expenditures during the construction period of capital projects. OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE. Other income consists of interest income earned on our cash balances and any other non-operating income activity, including insurance proceeds from litigation efforts. Other expense consists of any non-operating costs, including permanent impairments of reported investments and settlement costs from litigation efforts. CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002 NET SALES. Our net sales were $235.5 million, with total shipments of 648,000 net tons during the first quarter of 2003, as compared to net sales of $166.9 million, with total shipments of 562,000 net tons during the first quarter of 2002, an increase in net sales of $68.6 million, or 41%, and an increase in total shipments of 86,000 net tons, or 15%. During 2002, prices of domestic flat-rolled steel, which accounted for 93% of our consolidated net sales during the year, increased dramatically to more normalized levels. In comparison to the first quarter of 2002, our average consolidated selling price per ton increased $66, or 22%, during the first quarter of 2003. However, in comparison to the peak of $403 per ton achieved in the fourth quarter of 2002, our first quarter 2003 average consolidated selling price per ton decreased approximately $40, or 10%, to $363 per ton. We experienced a softening in the flat-rolled markets during the first quarter and anticipate a further decrease in our consolidated selling prices during the second quarter. We believe this weakened steel market is primarily caused by the weakened United States economy which has severely depressed the domestic commercial construction industry. We are cautiously optimistic, however, that with a domestic economic recovery, pricing and order levels will increase during the third and fourth quarters of 2003. COST OF GOODS SOLD. Cost of goods sold was $185.9 million during the first quarter of 2003, as compared to $139.5 million during the first quarter of 2002, an increase of $46.4 million, or 33%, which was due in large part to increased sales and production volumes. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold represented approximately 79% and 84% during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively. Our metallic raw materials represented 49% and 43% of our cost of goods sold during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively. Our average consolidated metallic raw material cost per net ton charged was $26, or 29%, higher during the first quarter of 2003 than during the same period in 2002 and substantially flat when compared to the fourth quarter of 2002. We anticipate a decrease in our metallic raw materials costs during the second and third quarters of 2003 due to a greater supply of scrap. During 2002, our gross margin strengthened from the severely depressed levels experienced during the weak steel markets of 2001. Our average product pricing increased by a greater degree than our average metallic raw material costs and we realized greater operating efficiencies through increased production. Our gross margin percentage was 21% during the first quarter of 2003, a decrease of 9% from our peak of 30% achieved during the fourth quarter of 2002. This decrease was primarily the result of the decreased selling values experienced during the first quarter of 2003. 9 SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $15.0 million during the first quarter of 2003, as compared to $16.3 million during the same period in 2002, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 8%. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses represented approximately 6% and 10% during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively. This 4% decrease was primarily related to the contribution to net sales, without a corresponding increase to selling, general and administrative expenses, by our Structural and Rail Division which began commercial operations during the third quarter of 2002. In accordance with FAS 145, we also reclassified $3.2 million of extraordinary loss from the extinguishment of debt recorded in the first quarter of 2002, as selling, general and administrative expense included in our operating income. This reclassification had no effect on net income as previously reported. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense was $9.2 million during the first quarter of 2003, as compared to $4.3 million during the first quarter of 2002, an increase of $4.9 million, or 115%. During the first quarter of 2003, gross interest expense increased 33% to $10.6 million and capitalized interest decreased 61% to $1.5 million, as compared to the same period in 2002. The increase in our gross interest expense, despite the slight decrease in our total debt, was due to an increase in our average interest rate caused by the March 2002 refinancing, in which we accessed traditionally higher-priced public debt markets. The decrease in our capitalized interest resulted from the reduction of interest required to be capitalized with respect to our Structural and Rail Division since construction was substantially complete at June 30, 2002. As we increase our construction activities at our Bar Products Division during the remainder of 2003, we anticipate increased levels of capitalized interest. OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE. Other expense was $149,000 during the first quarter of 2003, as compared to $4.2 million during the first quarter of 2002, a decrease of $4.0 million, resulting from a $4.5 million settlement cost recorded in the first quarter of 2002 for the final remaining lawsuit associated with the Nakornthai Strip Mill Public Co. Limited litigation. INCOME TAXES. During the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively, our income tax provision was $9.5 million and $984,000. Our effective tax rate was 37.5% during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002. During 2001, we recorded a $1.9 million deferred tax asset valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits that may not be fully realized. This allowance is still outstanding at March 31, 2003. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our business is capital intensive and requires substantial expenditures for, among other things, the purchase and maintenance of equipment used in our steelmaking and finishing operations and to remain in compliance with environmental laws. Our short-term and long-term liquidity needs arise primarily from capital expenditures, working capital requirements and principal and interest payments related to our outstanding indebtedness. We have met these liquidity requirements with cash provided by operations, equity, long-term borrowings, state and local grants and capital cost reimbursements. CASH FLOWS. Our cash flows from operating activities primarily result from sales of flat-rolled and structural steel products, and to a lesser extent, sales from the fabrication of various steel products for the non-residential construction industry. For the three months ended March 31, 2003, cash provided by operating activities was $24.7 million, as compared to $32.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $7.8 million, or 24%. This decrease was primarily driven by the Structural and Rail Division's inventory build as it continues to ramp-up production. Cash used in investing activities, which represented capital investments, was $45.7 million and $33.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. During the first quarter of 2003, we purchased the remaining 54% minority-owned interest of New Millennium Building Systems for $8.3 million, and we purchased a galvanizing facility in Jeffersonville, Indiana, for approximately $19.0 million. In addition, among other investments, we expended approximately $7.0 million in connection with the completion of our Structural and Rail Division and approximately $3.3 million in connection with our Bar Products Division. Cash provided by financing activities was $82,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to cash used in financing activities of $44.7 million for same period in 2002. The decrease in funds due to financing activities during 2002 was the result of our change in capital structure after the first quarter refinancing activities and the result of a decrease in debt associated with Iron Dynamics due to an agreement with the Iron Dynamics lenders to extinguish the debt under the Iron Dynamics credit agreement at the end of March 2002. On January 28, 2002, we entered into an agreement with the Iron Dynamics lenders to extinguish the debt under the Iron Dynamics credit agreement at the end of March 2002. We complied with each of the settlement requirements, thus constituting full and final settlement of all of Iron Dynamics' obligations and our guarantees under the IDI credit agreement, causing the IDI credit agreement to terminate. In meeting the requirements of the settlement agreement, we paid $15.0 million in cash and issued an aggregate of $22.0 million, or 1.5 million shares of our common stock during March 2002. In addition, if IDI resumes operations by January 27, 2007, and generates positive cash flow (as defined in the settlement agreement), we are required to make contingent future payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $22.0 million. LIQUIDITY. We believe the principal indicators of our liquidity are our cash position, remaining availability under our bank credit facilities and excess working capital. During the three months ended March 31, 2003, our cash position decreased $21.0 million to $3.2 million and our working capital position decreased $10.8 million, or 5%, to $186.6 million, as compared to December 31, 2002. As of March 31, 2003, $75.0 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility remained undrawn and available. Our ability to draw 10 down the revolver is dependent upon continued compliance with the financial covenants and other covenants contained in the senior credit agreement. Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and reduce our total debt will depend upon our future performance, which in turn, will depend upon general economic, financial and business conditions, along with competition, legislation and regulation, factors that are largely beyond our control. In addition, we cannot assure you that our operating results, cash flow and capital resources will be sufficient for repayment of our indebtedness in the future. We believe that based upon current levels of operations and anticipated growth, cash flow from operations, together with other available sources of funds, including additional borrowings under our senior secured credit agreement, will be adequate for the next twelve months for making required payments of principal and interest on our indebtedness and for funding anticipated capital expenditures and working capital requirements. We assess our capital spending at least quarterly and reevaluate our requirements based upon, among other things, our current and expected operating results. We currently anticipate our fiscal 2003 capital requirements to be approximately $127 million, of which $37 million was expended during the first quarter of 2003, and the remaining $90 million is expected to be spent as follows: - approximately $42 million at our Bar Products Division to broaden its operational capabilities to include the production of merchant shapes and reinforcing bars, as well as retain its ability to produce special-bar-quality products; - approximately $23 million at our Flat Roll Division, primarily for the completion of an on-site coil-coating facility expected to commence production in September 2003; - approximately $12 million at our Structural and Rail Division, primarily to allow for rail production; - approximately $11 million at our Iron Dynamics facility for its completion; and - approximately $2 million in connection with various maintenance projects OTHER MATTERS INFLATION. We believe that inflation has not had a material effect on our results of operations. ENVIRONMENTAL AND OTHER CONTINGENCIES. We have incurred, and in the future will continue to incur, capital expenditures and operating expenses for matters relating to environmental control, remediation, monitoring and compliance. We believe, apart from our dependence on environmental construction and operating permits for our existing and proposed manufacturing facilities that compliance with current environmental laws and regulations is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity; however, environmental laws and regulations have changed rapidly in recent years and we may become subject to more stringent environmental laws and regulations in the future. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK MARKET RISK In the normal course of business our market risk is limited to changes in interest rates. We utilize long-term debt as a primary source of capital. A portion of our debt has an interest component that resets on a periodic basis to reflect current market conditions. We manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates through the use of an interest rate swap. We agree to exchange, at specific intervals, the difference between fixed rate and floating rate interest amounts calculated on an agreed upon notional amount. This interest differential paid or received is recognized in the consolidated statements of income as a component of interest expense. At March 31, 2003, no material changes had occurred related to our interest rate risk from the information disclosed in the Annual Report of Steel Dynamics, Inc. and on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, we carried out an evaluation pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14, under the supervision and with the participation of the our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer along with the our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer along with our Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the company (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. There have been no significant changes in these internal controls or in other factors which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date we carried out the evaluation. 11 PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 6.
