1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION
1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions in Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for a full year. Reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 24, 201726, 2021 (“Form 10-K”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of February 24, 201726, 2021 was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in our Form 10-K.
As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”), unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “Steelcase,” “we,” “our,” “Company” and similar references are to Steelcase Inc. and its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. Unless the context otherwise indicates, reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than a calendar year. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In March 2017,2.NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
We evaluate all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") for consideration of their applicability to our consolidated financial statements. We have assessed all ASUs issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715),but not yet adopted and concluded that those not disclosed are either not applicable to improve the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic post-retirement benefit cost. The amended guidance requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost, provides explicit guidance on howus or are not expected to present the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement, and allows only the service cost component of net benefit cost to be eligible for capitalization. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted within the first interim period ofhave a fiscal year. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standardmaterial effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740). The update is intended to improve the accounting for the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. In Q1 2018, we chose to early adopt this guidance, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), which is part of the FASB Simplification Initiative. The updated guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance in Q1 2018 and, as a result, the income tax effects of our share-based compensation awards, which aggregated $0.7, were recognized as a component of Income tax expense on our Consolidated Statement of Income for the nine months ended November 24, 2017 instead of a component of Additional paid-in capital on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of November 24, 2017. The remaining requirements of this new accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. The updated guidance requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We expect the adoption of this guidance will result in an increase in the assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, and we are currently evaluating the extent of this increase.

Contract Balances
At times, we receive payments from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which establishes a new standard oncustomers before revenue recognition. The new standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard is designed to create greater comparability for financial statement users across industries and jurisdictions and also requires enhanced disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. We arerecognized, resulting in the processrecognition of evaluatinga contract liability (Customer deposits) presented in the impact that will result from adoption ofCondensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Changes in the new standard, but based on analysis performedCustomer deposits balance during the six months ended August 27, 2021 are as of November 24, 2017, we do not anticipate a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. We currently plan to apply the new standard using the modified retrospective method beginning in 2019.follows:

4.EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Earnings (loss) per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method determines earnings (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities represent restricted stock units in which the participants have non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the effects of certain performance units in which the participants have forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period.

5.FAIR VALUE
The carrying amounts for many of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable, short-term borrowings and certain other liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Our short-term investments, foreign exchange forward contracts and long-term investments are measured at fair value onin the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Our total debt is carried at cost and was $295.6$484.5 and $297.4$483.9 as of November 24, 2017August 27, 2021 and February 24, 2017,26, 2021, respectively. The fair value of our total debt is measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of instruments and was approximately $325$565.8 and $330$568.1 as of November 24, 2017August 27, 2021 and February 24, 2017,26, 2021, respectively. The estimation of the fair value of our total debt is based on Level 2 fair value measurements.
We periodically use derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to movements in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intention to reduce our risk of short-term volatility. We do not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.

Performance Units
During the nine months ended November 24, 2017, we awarded 154,500We have issued performance units ("PSUs"(“PSUs”) to our executive officers. The PSUs awardedcertain employees which are earned afterover a three-year performance period from 2018 through 2020,based on performance conditions established annually by the Compensation Committee within the first three months of the applicable fiscal year. The PSUs are then modified based on achievement of certain total shareholder return results relative to a comparison group of companies, which is a market condition,condition. When the performance conditions for a fiscal year are established, or if the performance conditions involve a qualitative assessment and if earned, will besuch assessment has been made, one-third of the PSUs issued inare considered granted. Therefore, each of the formthree fiscal years within the performance period is considered an individual tranche of sharesthe award (referred to as "Tranche 1," "Tranche 2" and "Tranche 3," respectively).
As of Class A Common Stock. The number of shares that mayAugust 27, 2021, the following PSUs have been issued and remained outstanding:
448,300 PSUs to be earned can range from 0%over a three-year performance period of 2022 through 2024 (the "2022 PSUs"),
529,500 PSUs to 200%be earned over a three-year performance period of 2021 through 2023 (the "2021 PSUs") and
296,600 PSUs to be earned over a three-year performance period of 2020 through 2022 (the "2020 PSUs").
In Q1 2022, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the target amount; therefore,2022 PSUs, Tranche 2 of the maximum number2021 PSUs and Tranche 3 of shares that can be issued underthe 2020 PSUs. Accordingly, one-third of each of these awards is 309,000.PSUs were considered granted in Q1 2022.
In Q1 2021, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the 2021 PSUs and Tranche 2 of the 2020 PSUs. These performance conditions involved a qualitative assessment which was made by the Compensation Committee in Q4 2021. Accordingly, one-third of each of these PSUs were considered granted in Q4 2021.
In Q1 2020, the performance conditions were established for Tranche 1 of the 2020 PSUs. Accordingly, one-third of the 2020 PSUs were considered granted in Q1 2020.
Once granted, the PSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets over the remaining performance period. For participants who are or become retirement-eligible during the performance period, the PSUs are expensed over the period ending on the date the participant becomes retirement-eligible.

Overview
In Q3 2018,
During Q2 2022, we posted a 2% revenue declinecontinued to see strengthening demand, and orders grew 24% compared to the prior year driven by a 4% decline in the Americas, partially offset by 4% growth in EMEA and 5% growth in the Other category.12% compared to Q1 2022. Revenue in the Americas in Q2 2021 benefited from strong beginning order backlog due to pandemic-related restrictions on manufacturing and delivery activities during Q1 2021. Revenue in the Americas in Q2 2022 was negatively impacted by continued declines in legacy furniture applicationsat least $40 due to shipment delays caused by supply chain disruptions. During the quarter, our pipeline of project opportunities and reduced demandrequests for day-to-day business.  Orders for day-to-day businessproposals in the Americas were flat in November compared to the prior year following significant declines earlier in the quarter. We have been receiving positive feedback from our customers and dealers from our new product introductions, partnership offerings and the pending acquisition of AMQ Solutions, and the number of large project opportunities and our project win rates have been increasing.
Operating income declined compared to Q1 2022 as recent trends in the prior year dueCOVID-19 pandemic caused some companies to lower sales volume, increases in costdelay their return to the office.
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue and higher operating expenses.increased by 520 basis points in Q2 2022 compared to the prior year. The increase was driven by lower revenue, significant inflation in operating expenses reflected continued investmentssteel and other commodities, and freight cost inefficiencies due to supply chain disruptions. We expect the inflationary pressures from steel and other commodities to continue to impact our cost of sales through 2022, but we expect our recent price increases to more fully offset these costs in product development, sales, marketing and information technology that support our strategies, including developing new products, enhancements and applications, expanding ancillary offerings and marketing partnerships, addressing product gaps and pursuing other areas for growth.2023.
Q3 2018Q2 2022 Compared to Q3 2017Q2 2021

The increase in the Americas was driven by the impacts of unfavorable shifts in business mix, lower volume and approximately $1 of higher commodity costs, partially offset by benefits associated with cost reduction efforts. The increase in EMEA was driven by unfavorable out-of-period accounting adjustments in the current quarter compared to favorable items in the prior year; benefits from gross margin improvement initiatives were offset by various operational inefficiencies and higher commodity costs.
Operating expenses of $213.3 in Q3 2018 represented an increase of $5.8 or 120 basis points as a percentage of revenueQ2 2022 compared to the prior year.
