Effective with the third quarter of 2003, the composition of United States Steel Corporation's (U. S. Steel's) Flat-rolled reportable segment was changed to include the results of coke operations at Clairton Works and Gary Works, which were previously reported in Other Businesses. This change reflected U. S. Steel's recent management consolidations. Also, effective September 12, 2003, U. S. Steel Balkan d.o.o. (USSB), a wholly owned Serbian subsidiary of U. S. Steel, acquired out of bankruptcy Sartid a.d. (In Bankruptcy) and certain of its subsidiaries. Effective with this acquisition, the U. S. Steel Kosice reportable segment (USSK) began including the operating results of USSB and was renamed U. S. Steel Europe (USSE). Prior to September 12, 2003, this segment included the operating results of activities under facility management and support agreements with Sartid. These agreements were terminated in conjunction with the acquisition of these assets. In order to present corresponding segment information for earlier periods on a comparative basis, U. S. Steel is filing audited Financial Statements and Notes to conform Footnote 8 "Segment Information" to the new reportable segment composition for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000.
