INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Management Committee of Clarkwestern Dietrich Building Systems, LLC:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Clarkwestern Dietrich Building Systems, LLC and subsidiaries (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, members' equity, and cash flows for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024 and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the "financial statements").

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, because of the extensive transactions with related parties, the financial statements may not be indicative of the financial position that would have existed or the results of operations that would have been achieved if the Company had operated without such affiliations. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.

 


 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

CLARKWESTERN DIETRICH BUILDING SYSTEMS, LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE FISCAL YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2026, 2025, AND 2024

1.
NATURE OF BUSINESS

Clarkwestern Dietrich Building Systems,LLC (the Company) is a manufacturer and supplier of light gauge steel framing products in the United States of America and Canada. The Company manufactures a full line of drywall studs and accessories, structural studs and joists, metal lath and accessories, and shaft wall studs and track used primarily in residential and commercial construction. The Company operates 15 manufacturing facilities, one each in Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Missouri, Oklahoma, and British Columbia and two each in California, Florida, Ohio, and Texas.

The members of the Company are CWBS‑MISA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Marubeni‑Itochu Steel America Inc. (MISA) and Worthington CDBS Holding, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of Worthington Enterprises, Inc., formerly known as Worthington Industries, Inc., (Worthington). On March 1, 2011, Clarkwestern Building Systems, Inc. and Worthington, two independent entities, entered into a noncash transaction whereby certain assets and liabilities of Clarkwestern Building Systems, Inc., that constituted a business, and Dietrich Industries, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Worthington that has since dissolved into Worthington, were contributed to form the Company to improve the competitive market position and operating efficiency. Clarkwestern Building Systems, Inc. and Worthington obtained a 75 percent and 25 percent ownership interest, respectively. On April 1, 2015, Clarkwestern Building Systems, Inc., the majority member of the Company, merged into MISA Metals, Inc., and MISA Metals, Inc. was renamed CWBS‑MISA, Inc.

The Company’s fiscal year is the twelve‑month period ending on March 31st. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets are as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 and the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, members’ equity, and cash flows are for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 (2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively).

2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of Clarkwestern Dietrich Building Systems, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 and for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024. The Company is the 100 percent owner of ClarkDietrich Research LLC, ClarkDietrich Engineering Services, LLC, ClarkDietrich Engineering Design Inc., and Structa Wire Corp. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Estimates—The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk—Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 825, Financial Instruments, consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. In the normal course of business, the Company extends credit, generally on an unsecured basis, to various customers in industries where certain concentrations of credit risk exist. These concentrations of credit risk may be similarly affected by changes in the economy or other conditions and may, accordingly impact the Company’s overall credit risk. However, the Company’s management believes that trade accounts receivable are well diversified, thereby reducing the potential of material credit risk, and that the allowance for credit losses is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses as of March 31, 2026 and 2025.

- 7 -


 

Customers of the Company are primarily located in the United States of America. Approximately 83 percent, 85 percent, and 82 percent of sales were to customers in the commercial building distributors industry for the fiscal years ended March31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Approximately 24 percent and 23 percent of trade accounts receivable were from two customers in the commercial building distributors industry as of March31, 2026. Approximately 29 percent, 15 percent, and 15 percent of trade accounts receivable were from three customers in the commercial building distributors industry as of March31, 2025. Approximately 21 percent, 20 percent, and 18 percent of sales were to three customers for the fiscal year ended March31, 2026. Approximately 21 percent, 18 percent, and 17 percent of sales were to three customers for the fiscal year ended March31, 2025. Approximately 22 percent, 17 percent, and 16 percent of sales were to three customers for the fiscal year ended March31, 2024.

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and investment instruments that are highly liquid in nature and have maturities of three months or less from their acquisition date. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company maintains cash balances in bank accounts, which frequently and substantially exceed the amounts insured by the United States of America’s Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of $250,000 or, as applicable, the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation of $100,000 in Canadian dollars. Although the Company bears risk on amounts in excess of these limits, it has not experienced and does not anticipate any losses due to the high quality of the institutions where the deposits are held.

Receivables—Trade receivables are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short‑term basis; thus, trade receivables do not bear interest. Receivables are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure they are properly valued and collectible. This is accomplished through two contra‑receivable accounts: returns and allowance reserve and allowance for credit losses. The returns and allowance reserve is used to record estimates of returns or other allowances resulting from quality, delivery, discounts, or other issues affecting the value of receivables. This account is estimated based upon historical trends and current market conditions with the offset to net sales.

The allowance for credit losses is used to record the estimated risk of loss related to customers’ inability to pay. This allowance is maintained at a level that the Company considers appropriate based on factors that affect collectability, such as the financial health of a customer, historical trends of charge‑offs and recoveries, and current economic and market conditions. As the Company monitors the receivables, the Company identifies customers that may have payment problems, and adjusts the allowance accordingly, with the offset to selling and administrative expenses. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when recovery is considered remote.

While the Company believes the allowances are adequate, changes in economic conditions, the financial health of customers, and bankruptcy settlements could impact the Company’s future earnings. If the economic environment and market conditions deteriorate, particularly in the construction market, additional reserves may be required. Allowance for credit losses was approximately $769,000 and $964,000 as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The trade accounts receivable also includes a reserve for cash discounts and a reserve for returns and allowances of approximately $2,185,000 and $2,840,000 as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Inventories—Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, based on specific cost or by using a weighted average cost. Inventories as of March 31, 2026 and 2025 consisted of the following:

 

2026

The Company periodically reviews the inventory quantities on hand, considering assumptions such as current and future demand and market conditions and records reserves to reduce the carrying value of inventories to their net realizable value.

Property, Plant, and Equipment—Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost or the fair value at the date of acquisition and depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight‑line basis. Depreciation of right‑of‑use finance lease assets and leasehold improvements is provided over the shorter of the lease term or the life of the property on a straight‑line basis. Depreciation expense was approximately $16,122,000, $13,007,000, and $12,372,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

The Company evaluates the carrying values of long‑lived assets for impairment by assessing recoverability based on forecasted operating cash flows on an undiscounted basis in accordance with the FASB’s ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, the Company determined no impairment existed.

Leases—The Company leases certain properties and buildings (manufacturing facilities and office space) and equipment under various arrangements which provide the right to use the underlying asset and require lease payments for the lease term. The Company’s lease portfolio consists mainly of operating leases which expire at various dates through the fiscal year ending March 31, 2036 and finance leases which expire at various dates through the fiscal year ending March 31, 2030. Many of the property and building lease agreements obligate the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance and certain maintenance costs (hereinafter referred to as nonlease components). The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. All other leases are recorded on the balance sheet with right‑of‑use (ROU) assets representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease

- 9 -


 

term and lease liabilities representing the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term and include options to extend or terminate the lease when they are reasonably certain to be exercised. The present value of lease payments is determined primarily using the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement date. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and nonlease components for all classes of assets. For leases which contain increases in lease payments based on subsequent changes to the Consumer Price Index, the Consumer Price Index rate as of the commencement date is the rate that was used to compute the initial ROU assets and related lease liabilities. Any subsequent increases to the lease payments are expensed when incurred as variable lease expense.

Equity Method Investments—The investments included a 50 percent non‑controlling interests in Structa Wire Corp, until August 31, 2022, and CDH Custom Roll Form, LLC (the Investments) and are carried at cost, adjusted for the Company’s proportionate share of their undistributed earnings or losses, plus any amortization of basis difference (see Note 3), if applicable. If the fair value of the Investments is below their carrying value and the difference is deemed to be other than temporary, the difference between the fair value and the carrying value is charged to earnings as an impairment. No impairments were recognized for the Investments for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024. Equity in income from the equity method investments for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 was $2,670,273, $3,984,976, and $942,507, respectively, and recorded in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. For additional information regarding the equity method investments, refer to Note 3 to these consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill—Goodwill represents costs in excess of the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations. In accordance with the FASB’s ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis. When the fair value of a reporting unit falls below its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount, if any, by which the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Fair value of a reporting unit is established using a discounted cash flow method. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, the Company performed its annual impairment analysis and determined there was no impairment at such time.

The following table shows the change in goodwill for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024:

An impairment loss shall be recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible asset is not recoverable and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value. No impairment existed for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024.

The Company’s other intangible assets are being amortized over their respective useful lives under accelerated methods of amortization or on a straight‑line basis to reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are estimated to be realized. The Company assesses the useful lives of the intangible assets, making adjustments as necessary to the remaining useful life of intangible assets and modifications to future amortization expense going forward.

Amortization expense of other intangible assets was approximately $2,574,000, $2,671,000, and $3,128,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, future amortization expense of other intangible assets for each of the five succeeding fiscal years is as follows:

Royalty Agreement—The Company recorded royalty expense of approximately $273,000, $223,000, and $301,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Royalty expense is recorded in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Income Taxes—The Company is a limited liability company and, therefore, the majority of the related results of operations are included in the determination of the taxable income or loss of its members. In the event the Company revokes the limited liability company status and elects to be taxed as a C corporation, the then existing deferred taxes

- 11 -


 

of the limited liability company would be reinstated as a liability or asset of the Company with a corresponding income tax expense or benefit.

Commencing in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the results of operations from its wholly owned subsidiary, Structa Wire Corp. (see Note 3), which is taxed as a C corporation, not as a limited liability company. The Company records income taxes related to Structa Wire Corp. in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes.

Additionally, the Company applies certain provisions of the FASB’s ASC 740, Income Taxes, which require that the consolidated financial statement effects of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. The recognition and measurement guidelines are applied to the Company’s material tax positions in the consolidated financial statements; however, no amounts are recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for uncertain tax positions.

Member Dividends—Each quarter, the Company remits dividends to CWBS‑MISA, Inc. and Worthington to pay taxes, of which 75 percent is remitted to CWBS‑MISA, Inc. and 25 percent is remitted to Worthington. At times, the Company may decide to distribute discretionary dividends as well.

Revenue Recognition—The Company recognizes revenue when a sales arrangement with a customer exists (e.g., executed contract agreement, receipt and acceptance of a purchase order, as well as other arrangements that are implied by customary practices and laws), a transaction price is fixed or determinable and the Company has satisfied its performance obligations per the sales arrangement. The Company’s sales arrangements generally have standard payment terms that do not exceed a year.

The Company’s revenue primarily originates from sales arrangements with a single performance obligation to deliver products to customers, whereby the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer per the arranged shipping terms.

The Company offers rebate agreements to certain of its customers based upon sales and purchased tons with most rebates issued quarterly or annually. Total rebate expense for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, was approximately $140,235,000, $139,995,000 and $152,039,000, respectively.

The Company’s revenue is reported as net sales and is measured at the determinable transaction price, net of any variable considerations (e.g. sales discounts, rebates and other) and also net of any taxes collected from the customer and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. The Company considers shipping and handling as activities to fulfill its performance obligation. Shipping and handling fees incurred by the Company are accounted for as cost of sales within the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Advertising—Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $2,411,000, $2,563,000, and $2,756,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively, and is included in selling and administrative expenses within the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Research and Development—Research and development (R&D) costs are expensed as incurred. R&D expense was approximately $1,138,000, $1,110,000, and $1,028,000 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively, and is included in selling and administrative expenses within the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Fair Value Measurements—The Company, at times, measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The Company determines the fair value of these assets and liabilities based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs (Level 1) and minimize the use of unobservable inputs (Level 3) when measuring fair value. ASC 820 also enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a

- 12 -


 

hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values include:

ACQUISITIONS AND EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS

Acquisition of Studs Unlimited, LLC—On September 30, 2024, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities from Studs Unlimited, LLC. The final purchase price was $6,549,624, which was net of a working capital adjustment of approximately $200,000. Acquisition-related costs of $203,000 were expensed as incurred and included in selling and administrative expenses within the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

Studs Unlimited, LLC manufactures light gauge steel framing products. The addition of Studs Unlimited, LLC expands the Company’s footprint to better serve customers in Oklahoma and other surrounding states.

The assets acquired were measured and recognized based on their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition, with goodwill representing the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets. The goodwill relates primarily to the expected synergies and the value of the qualified workforce. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based upon detailed valuations that use various assumptions made by management using one of three valuation approaches: market, income or cost. The selection of a particular method for a given asset depends on the reliability of available data and the nature of the asset, among other considerations.

Acquisition of Structa Wire—On August 1, 2018, the Company simultaneously entered into certain agreements with the former 100 percent owners of Structa Wire Corp. (Structa Wire) to 1) acquire 50 percent non‑controlling interest in Structa Wire, a Canadian company located in British Columbia, 2) enter into a licensing agreement for certain intellectual property owned by Structa Wire, and 3) enter into a forward contract to acquire the remaining 50 percent interest in Structa Wire. Structa Wire manufactures high-performance welded wire products for the lath and plaster industry. The total consideration paid was $14,576,449. As of August 1, 2018, the total consideration of $10,323,774, $1,561,109 and $2,691,566 was allocated to the 50 percent interest, the licensing agreement and the forward contract, respectively, based on their estimated fair values. The Company utilized both the market approach and the income approach, which included the use of Level 3 fair value measurements, to estimate these fair values.

Prior to the September 1, 2022 acquisition of the remaining 50 percent interest in Structa Wire, the Company recorded its 50 percent investment in Structa Wire in accordance with ASC 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures, under the equity method of accounting. The Company did not consolidate this entity because it did not control any of the ongoing activities of this entity and did not have a controlling interest in this entity. The difference between the initial carrying value of this investment and Structa Wire’s initial underlying equity in net assets was approximately $6.6 million. The basis difference primarily related to the estimated fair value of property and equipment and other identified intangible assets and was amortized on a straight‑line basis over their remaining estimated useful lives. As of August 31, 2022, just prior to the acquisition of the remaining 50 percent interest in Structa Wire, the carrying value of the investment in Structa Wire was approximately $23,018,000.

On September 1, 2022, the Company acquired the remaining 50 percent interest in Structa Wire for $28,672,470, inclusive of $21,276,818 of cash acquired. This purchase price was comprised of two parts, $13,479,623, which equaled 50 percent of the net income from Structa Wire from August 1, 2018 through September 1, 2022, plus $15,192,847.

The Company accounted for the acquisition of the remaining 50 percent interest in Structa Wire as a business combination achieved in stages in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires, amongst other things, 1) recognition of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date, 2) recognition of a gain related to the Company’s initial 50 percent interest in Structa Wire, and 3) recognition of goodwill for the amount in which the purchase price for the remaining 50 percent interest in Structa Wire, plus the estimated fair value of the forward contract and the fair value of the initial 50 percent interest in Structa Wire, exceeded the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The goodwill relates primarily to the expected synergies and the value of the qualified workforce. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets was based upon detailed valuations that use various assumptions made by management using one of three valuation approaches: market, income or cost. The selection of a particular method for a given asset depended on the reliability of available data and the nature of the asset, among other considerations. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the Company finalized its purchase price allocation, which included recording $4,394,738 of deferred tax liabilities with an offsetting increase to goodwill.

Acquisition of Strait‑Flex International, Inc.—On January 30, 2017, the Company acquired 100 percent of the stock of Strait‑Flex International, Inc. (Strait‑Flex). The purchase agreement contained a provision for contingent consideration requiring the Company to pay 2 percent of total Strait‑Flex sales over the succeeding 10‑year period to the former owner of Strait‑Flex. Initially, the Company recorded a $2,738,000 contingent consideration obligation based on the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration as of the date of acquisition. The Company granted a security interest in the property and equipment acquired to the former owner of Strait‑Flex as collateral for the obligations related to this contingent obligation. All acquisition‑related transaction costs have been expensed as incurred.

The Company recorded contingent consideration within accrued liabilities (current portion) and other long-term liabilities at its estimated fair value of $585,381 and $1,034,870 as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The estimated fair value was based on the present value of expected cash flows, which included Level 3 fair value measurement inputs.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the contingent consideration measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, is as follows:
