  • 2011 Annual Report MESSAGE from AUVSI PRESIDENT & CEO, MICHAEL TOSCANO
    2011 ANNUAL REPORT MESSAGE FROM AUVSI PRESIDENT & CEO, MICHAEL TOSCANO AUVSI and the unmanned systems community as a whole had another strong year in 2011 — capabilities increased across the board, as did interest in what unmanned systems can deliver. AUVSI is only as strong as its members, and our membership continued its upward climb throughout the year. There was also greater activity by local AUVSI chapters; we added several new chapters and many existing ones conducted successful events in 2011 that will help promote and field unmanned systems. Belonging to a chapter is an excellent way to get involved with unmanned systems at the local community level. We enjoyed record-breaking attendance at AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems Program Review 2011 and AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems North America 2011 and look forward to continued growth this year. We also stepped up our advo- cacy efforts, including hosting another successful AUVSI Day on Capitol Hill and forging more partnerships with other groups that have a stake in unmanned systems. Unmanned systems were frequently in the news during the year, and we helped put them there by hosting a National Press Club event in Washington to highlight the varied uses of unmanned systems and robotics. Unmanned systems helped monitor and clean up the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant in Japan in the wake of the devastating earthquake and tsunami. They also assisted in the attack on Osama bin Laden, performed unexploded ordnance range clearance at Camp Guernsey, provided assisting technology to the National Federation of the Blind’s Blind Driver Challenge and supported state and local law enforcement, among many other uses.

  • 2015 Proxy Statement | 1 Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Schnitzer Steel Industries, Inc
    December 17, 2015 Dear Shareholder: On behalf of our Board of Directors, we are pleased to invite you to attend Schnitzer Steel’s 2016 Annual Meeting on Wednesday, January 27, 2016 in Portland, Oregon. Whether or not you are able to attend our meeting in person, we invite you to read this year’s proxy statement which highlights our key activities and accomplishments in fiscal year 2015 and presents matters for which we are seeking your vote. As part of our commitment to corporate governance best practices, we have updated and enhanced our proxy statement this year. We hope you will find the new presentation informative and easy to navigate. In fiscal 2015, we faced a still challenging macroeconomic environment due to slowing global growth, sharply falling commodity prices, global steel-making overproduction, lower iron ore prices, and strengthening of the U.S. dollar. In fiscal 2015, these factors contributed to the 15% decline in the US industry’s ferrous export sales volumes and the 40% drop in market ferrous sales prices. Amid these headwinds, we undertook deliberate and substantial steps to lower our operating costs and improve our productivity. In April 2015, we launched a productivity improvement and cost savings initiative with an annual savings target of $60 million, and we achieved $28 million of benefits in fiscal 2015 ahead of schedule. By fiscal 2015 year-end, we also successfully integrated our Auto Parts and Metals Recycling Businesses into our new Auto and Metals Recycling division in order to achieve supply chain and operational synergies. As a result of these initiatives and our continued focus on working capital management, we increased our free cash flow by 12% year-over- year, we reduced our SG&A expenses by 9% year-over-year, and we ended the year with net debt at our lowest level since the end of fiscal 2011 while continuing to return capital to our shareholders through our quarterly dividend and share repurchases.
