NOTE 26. RELATED PARTIES

In some geographies and for some customers, we purchase grid products from WAVE, our 50%-owned joint venture with Worthington Industries, for resale to customers.  The total amount of these purchases was $22.5 million in 2019, $22.5 million in 2018 and $18.2 million in 2017.  We also provide certain selling, promotional and administrative processing services to WAVE for which we receive reimbursement.  Those services amounted to $15.7 million in 2019, $15.8 million in 2018, and $14.9 million in 2017.  The net amount due to WAVE from us for all of our relationships was $3.3 million as of December 31, 2019 and $3.0 million as of December 31, 2018.  As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we also recorded $25.9 million and $22.4 million, respectively, payable to WAVE for their remaining portion of the proceeds from the Sale, which is reflected within Accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
