Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On August 11, 2015, AK Steel Corporation issued a press release, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit No. 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein, announcing that it has joined other major domestic steel producers in filing anti-dumping and counter-vailing duty petitions related to hot-rolled steel. The anti-dumping petitions charge that unfairly-traded imports of certain hot-rolled steel flat products from Australia, Brazil, Japan, South Korea, the Netherlands, Turkey and the United Kingdom are causing material injury to the domestic industry. The petitions allege that producers in each of the seven countries are selling hot-rolled steel in the U.S. market at less than fair value. The petitions also allege that the foreign producers in Brazil, South Korea, and Turkey benefit from numerous counter-vailable subsidies provided by their governments. The petitions identify 33 different subsidy programs in Brazil, 41 subsidy programs in South Korea, and 17 subsidy programs in Turkey.
