Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
Management of Worthington Industries, Inc. (the “Registrant”) conducted a conference call on June 28, 2018, beginning at approximately 10:30 a.m., Eastern Daylight Time, to discuss the Registrant’s unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 (the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2018) and for fiscal 2018 (the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018). Additionally, the Registrant’s management addressed certain issues related to the outlook for the Registrant and its subsidiaries and their markets for the coming months. A copy of the transcript of the conference call is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained in this Item 2.02 and Exhibit 99.1 furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K, is being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, unless the Registrant specifically states that the information is to be considered “filed” under the Exchange Act or incorporates the information by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act.
In the conference call, management referred to quarterly and annual earnings per share, excluding impairment and restructuring charges and non-recurring tax items related tax reform (i.e., discrete tax items resulting from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act). This represents a non-GAAP financial measure and is used by management as a measure of operating performance. Earnings per share adjusted is calculated by adding impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets and adding (subtracting) restructuring and other expense (income), net (in each case, after-tax) and the impact of discrete tax items resulting from the new tax law to (from) net earnings attributable to controlling interest, and dividing the result by the average diluted common shares for the period. The difference between the GAAP-based financial measure of diluted earnings per share attributable to controlling interest and the non-GAAP financial measure of diluted earnings per share adjusted for the three and twelve months ended May 31, 2018, as mentioned in the conference call, is outlined below.

| (1) | Amount reflects the impact of the re-measurement of the Company’s deferred tax balances at the lower statutory rate, net of the mandatory deemed repatriation tax on unremitted foreign earnings. |
The Tax Cut and Jobs Act also lowered the statutory tax rate on fiscal 2018 earnings, which improved earnings per diluted share for the three and 12 month periods ending May 31, 2018 by $0.05 and $0.17, respectively. These amounts were not excluded from GAAP earnings as the impact of the favorable rate will be ongoing. In addition, the Company awarded a one-time bonus to non-executive employees as a result of the savings from the new tax law, which reduced earnings per diluted share by $0.06 during the three and 12 month periods ended May 31, 2018. This amount was also not removed from the calculation GAAP earnings.

In the conference call, management referred to operating income/operating loss, excluding impairment and restructuring charges, for each of the Registrant’s Pressure Cylinders, Steel Processing and Engineered Cabs operating segments for the fiscal quarter. Each represents a non-GAAP financial measure and is used by management as a measure of operating performance. Operating income/operating loss excluding restructuring is calculated by adding (subtracting) restructuring and other expense (income), net to (from) operating income/operating loss. The difference between the GAAP-based measure of operating income/operating loss and the non-GAAP financial measure of operating income/operating loss excluding restructuring for the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2018, as mentioned in the conference call, is outlined below for the Registrant’s Pressure Cylinders, Steel Processing and Engineered Cabs operating segments (in thousands).

In the conference call, management referred to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the Registrant’s fiscal year ended May 31, 2018. This represents a non-GAAP financial measure and is used by management as measures of operating performance. EBITDA is calculated by adding interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization to net earnings attributable to controlling interest and adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets and adding (subtracting) restructuring and other expense (income), net to (from) EBITDA. The difference between the GAAP-based measure of net earnings attributable to controlling interest and the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2018, and May 31, 2017, as mentioned in the conference call, is outlined below.
