CORRESP 1 filename1.htm CORRESP April 2, 2024 VIA EDGAR U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Division of Corporation Finance Office of Manufacturing 100 F Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20549 Attention: Jeffrey Gordon and Jean Yu Re: Commercial Metals Company Form 8-K Filed January 8, 2024 Response dated March 14, 2024 File No. 001-04304 Ladies and Gentlemen: This letter sets forth the response of Commercial Metals Company (the “Company”) to the comment of the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) set forth in the Staff’s letter, dated March 19, 2024, with respect to the above-referenced filing and the Company’s response letter dated March 14, 2024. For your convenience, the Staff’s comment is set forth in bold below, followed by the response of the Company. Form 8-K Filed January 8, 2024 Exhibit No. 99.1, page 12 2. Please refer to prior comment 2 of our letter dated February 29, 2024. Based on your March 14, 2024 response, mill operational commissioning costs appear to be normal operating expenses necessary to operate your business. As such, the adjustment to your non-GAAP financial measures for these costs appears to be inconsistent with Question 100.01 of the Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations on Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Please revise your presentations in future filings to remove this adjustment from your non-GAAP financial measures. Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment. In future filings and releases, the Company will limit the information provided to only a discussion of the costs incurred and will not include adjustments for “Mill operational commissioning costs” in its non-GAAP financial measures in any period presented. * * * * * * U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Division of Corporation Finance Office of Manufacturing April 2, 2024 Page 2 If you have any questions or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned at 972-308-5293 or by e-mail at paul.lawrence@cmc.com.
