FORT WAYNE, Ind., Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Steel Dynamics, Inc. (NASDAQ/GS: STLD) today announced fourth quarter and full-year financial results. Excluding non-cash goodwill and asset impairment charges related to the company's metals recycling operations of $1.13 per diluted share, the company's adjusted fourth quarter 2015 net income was $22 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, on net sales of $1.6 billion. Including the non-cash impairment charges, the company reported a fourth quarter net loss of $253 million, or $1.04 per diluted share.
As a part of the company's annual goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset assessment, it was determined that the fair market value of its metals recycling operations was less than its carrying value, due to the weak global scrap commodity outlook, as indicated in the company's December 16, 2015 press release. Upon completion of the final assessment, it was determined that the book value of the metals recycling segment was impaired, resulting in non-cash goodwill and other related asset impairment charges of $435 million.
Comparatively, prior year fourth quarter net sales were $2.5 billion, with adjusted net income of $97 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, which excluded the impact of non-cash asset impairment and purchase accounting charges of $0.59 per diluted share. Sequential third quarter 2015 net sales were $2.0 billion, with net income of $61 million, or $0.25 per diluted share.
"The fourth quarter 2015 market environment was one of the most challenging in recent history for our steel and metals recycling operations," said Mark D. Millett, Chief Executive Officer. "The domestic steel industry operated at production rates below 65 percent in November and December, representing the lowest levels this year caused by ongoing pressure from unfairly traded steel imports, customer destocking and seasonally lower demand. Enabled by our diversified and value-added product portfolio, our steel operations were again able to maintain a higher than industry average production utilization rate at 73 percent for the fourth quarter 2015. The automotive market remains strong and construction continues to show incremental improvement, as current industry forecasts suggest additional year-over-year growth in 2016.
"An important barometer for domestic steel consumption is the strength of the construction industry. Historically, the construction industry has been the largest single domestic steel consuming sector, and it is continuing on an upward trend," continued Millett. "Steady demand in an otherwise typically seasonally slower quarter, coupled with market share growth related to our recent acquisition of additional deck assets, resulted in a 10 percent increase in fourth quarter 2015 fabrication shipments. Order entry remains robust, reflecting the steady positive trend in the non-residential construction market. Our fabrication operations recorded another strong financial outcome in the fourth quarter 2015, and achieved record annual 2015 operating income of $116 million—well over twice the previous record annual results of $52 million earned in 2014.
"Despite the macro-headwinds encountered during the fourth quarter, we generated strong cash flow from operations of $330 million. Additionally, we generated record annual 2015 cash flow from operations of over $1.0 billion, and after fixed asset capital expenditures, recorded $924 million of free cash flow. Including our revolver and available cash of $727 million, we achieved record liquidity of $1.9 billion at the end of the year, providing a firm financial foundation for growth," concluded Millett.
Additional Fourth Quarter 2015 Comments
Although at levels somewhat lower than experienced earlier in the year, steel imports continued to flood the domestic market during the fourth quarter 2015. Coupled with seasonally lower demand and buyer hesitancy related to uncertain raw material markets, steel and metals recycling shipments declined. Fourth quarter 2015 operating income for the company's steel operations decreased 47 percent to $67 million sequentially, due to a 12 percent decrease in shipments. In addition, average steel product pricing declined more than consumed raw material scrap costs, resulting in slight steel metal spread compression. The fourth quarter 2015 average product selling price for the company's steel operations decreased $51 to $614 per ton. The average ferrous scrap cost per ton melted decreased $47 to $205 per ton.
Fourth quarter 2015 operating income attributable to the company's sheet products decreased 43 percent when compared to the sequential third quarter. The company's flat roll metal spread decreased in the quarter as average pricing declined more than scrap costs, and quarterly shipments also decreased 10 percent. Flat roll products, specifically commodity-grade hot roll, were the most severely impacted by high import volumes. Operating income from long products decreased 47 percent, caused by average price declines and reduced shipments of 13 percent. The company's steel production utilization rate declined to 73 percent for the fourth quarter 2015, which remains higher than the average U.S. domestic steel mill utilization rate, but lower than the company's third quarter 2015 rate of 82 percent.
The company's metals recycling operations recorded an adjusted fourth quarter 2015 operating loss of $16 million (excluding non-cash goodwill and asset impairment charges), compared to third quarter 2015 operating income of $463,000. Based on lower domestic steel mill production utilization and traditional year-end steel mill scrap inventory reduction, fourth quarter 2015 ferrous scrap shipments declined 12 percent. Additionally, sequential quarterly ferrous scrap pricing decreased substantially resulting in a 34 percent margin reduction.
The company's fabrication operations continued to achieve strong financial performance. Fourth quarter 2015 operating income of $30 million was only surpassed by the sequential third quarter's record of $37 million. Sustained demand supported a 10 percent increase in quarterly shipments, which partially offset metal spread compression, as average product pricing declined more than raw material steel costs.
Full-Year 2015 Comparison
Despite record full-year fabrication and steel shipments (a function of including the company's Columbus Flat Roll Division shipments for a full year in 2015), annual 2015 net sales were $7.6 billion compared to $8.8 billion in 2014, a decrease of 13 percent, based on significantly lower product pricing. The dramatic drop in global commodity prices caused the average full-year 2015 selling price for the company's metals recycling operations to decline over 36 percent year-over-year. Additionally, due to sustained high levels of unfairly traded steel imports during the year, the average full-year 2015 selling price for the company's steel operations decreased $152 per ton, or 18 percent. As a result, annual 2015 revenues for the company's metals recycling and steel operations fell $794 million and $338 million, respectively. The average full-year 2015 ferrous scrap cost per ton melted decreased $105 to $255 per ton, resulting in meaningful metal spread compression.
Adjusted annual 2015 operating income was $398 million, with adjusted net income of $178 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, excluding non-cash asset impairment and other charges related to the company's metals recycling and ferrous production operations and first quarter 2015 refinancing costs. Including these charges, annual 2015 net loss was $130 million, or $0.54 per diluted share. Comparatively, adjusted annual 2014 operating income was $612 million, with adjusted net income of $323 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, excluding charges related to the Minnesota asset impairment and Columbus acquisition. Including these charges, annual 2014 net income was $157 million, or $0.67 per diluted share.
Outlook
"While underlying steel demand in certain market sectors remains steady and import levels have somewhat declined, the issue of unfairly traded steel imports persists," said Millett. "We believe that customer steel inventories have started to realign with current demand dynamics, and when combined with scrap price stabilization and moderating steel import volumes, presents an environment that could result in increased 2016 domestic steel production. We continue to strengthen our financial position through strong cash flow generation, record liquidity, and the execution of our long-term strategy. We are uniquely, well-positioned for additional growth. Customer focus, coupled with our market diversification and low-cost operating platforms, support our ability to not only maintain our best-in-class industry performance, but to also grow in a challenging environment," concluded Millett.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that Adjusted Operating Income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP financial measures, provide additional meaningful information regarding the company's performance and financial strength. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, EBITDA included in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
