BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES NOTE 1 - BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Constellium is a global leader in the development, manufacture and sale of a broad range of high value-added specialty
rolled and extruded aluminum products to the aerospace, space, defense, packaging, automotive, commercial transportation and
general industrial end-markets. At June 30, 2026, the Group operated 23 manufacturing facilities, 3 R&D centers and 3
administrative centers. The Group has approximately 11,500 employees.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, when we refer to “we,” “our,” “us,” “Constellium,” the “Group” and the
“Company” in this document, we are referring to Constellium SE and its subsidiaries, and when we refer to “Constellium SE”,
we are referring to Constellium SE on a standalone basis.
Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Constellium SE and its controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated.
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Constellium in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable for interim periods and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes
required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (which include normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of its financial position at June 30, 2026, results of operations
and cash flows for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 have been included. The
accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group’s
audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2025 (“Annual Report”). The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations that may be achieved for the entire 2026 fiscal year.
Use of estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to
make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and
the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. The principal areas of judgment relate to:
(1) impairment of assets; (2) actuarial assumptions related to pension and other postretirement benefit plans; (3) tax
uncertainties and valuation allowances; and (4) assessment of loss contingencies, including environmental and litigation
liabilities. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and
circumstances, giving consideration to previous experience. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty,
and, accordingly, our accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. The accounting estimates used in the preparation
of our consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional information
is obtained, and our operating environment changes. The Group continuously reviews its significant assumptions and estimates
in light of the uncertainty associated with the global geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions and their potential direct and
indirect impacts on its business and its financial statements. There can be no guarantee that our assumptions will materialize or
that actual results will not differ materially from estimates.
Recently adopted and recently issued accounting guidance
In May 2026, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2026-02 Environmental Credits and
Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818) which establishes requirements on how to recognize, measure, present and
disclose environmental credits and environmental credit obligations. The guidance applies to all entities that buy, receive or
internally generate environmental credits they intend to sell, trade or distribute. It also applies to entities that use such credits
for compliance or voluntary purposes (e.g., for use in carbon-neutral or net-zero initiatives). The standard is effective for
interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The guidance must be applied retrospectively by
recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at the date of initial application. Early adoption is permitted.
The Group plans to adopt these and new standards, amendments and interpretations, as disclosed in our Annual Report,
on their required effective dates and does not expect any material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash
flows as a result of their adoption.
