Steel Dynamics Projects Lower Q4 2024 Earnings

Story Highlights

Steel Dynamics ( (STLD) ) has shared an announcement.

Steel Dynamics has issued its fourth quarter 2024 earnings guidance, projecting earnings of $1.26 to $1.30 per diluted share, a decrease from the previous quarter and the same quarter last year. This downturn is attributed to lower average realized pricing, seasonal shipment reductions, and a significant unplanned outage at the Butler Flat Roll Division. Despite these challenges, the company anticipates higher earnings from its metals recycling operations and reports a stable order backlog in steel fabrication, with expectations for improved demand in 2025 supported by declining interest rates and U.S. infrastructure investments.
