Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
Management of Worthington Industries, Inc. (the “Registrant”) conducted a conference call on December 20, 2016, beginning at approximately 2:30 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, to discuss the Registrant’s unaudited financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 (the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2016). 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 earnings per share adjusted for restructuring. This represents a non-GAAP financial measure and is used by management as a measure of operating performance. Earnings per share adjusted for restructuring is calculated by adding restructuring and other expense (after-tax) to 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 of $0.72 and the non-GAAP financial measure of diluted earnings per share adjusted for restructuring of $0.75 for the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2016, as mentioned in the conference call, is outlined below.

In the conference call, management referred to operating income excluding restructuring for the Company’s Pressure Cylinders, Steel Processing and Engineered Cabs operating segments. This represents a non-GAAP financial measure and is used by management as a measure of operating performance. Operating income excluding restructuring is calculated by adding restructuring and other expense to operating income. The difference between the GAAP-based measure of operating income and the non-GAAP financial measure of operating income excluding restructuring for the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2016, as mentioned in the conference call, is outlined below for the Company’s Pressure Cylinders, Steel Processing and Engineered Cabs operating segments (in thousands).
