Condensed Consolidated Financial Information Disclosure [Abstract]

Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by A. M. Castle & Co. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2015 is derived from the audited financial statements at that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, the unaudited statements included herein contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial results for the interim period. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (as amended) and the Form 8-K filed May 26, 2016, to update the Form 10-K (as amended) to revise the financial statement presentation and disclosures to reflect discontinued operations related to the sale of substantially all the assets of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Total Plastics, Inc. ("TPI"). The 2016 interim results reported herein may not necessarily be indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for the full year.

In March 2016, the Company completed the sale of substantially all the assets of TPI. TPI is reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as a discontinued operation, and all the data in this filing has been recast to present TPI as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
