The latest announcement is out from Vulcan Steel Ltd. ( (AU:VSL) ).

Vulcan Steel Limited reported a challenging first half for FY25, with significant declines in both EBITDA and NPAT, attributed to difficult economic conditions in Australia and New Zealand. Despite these challenges, the company managed a 10% return on capital employed and decreased its net bank debt by NZ$34.3 million. The expansion of hybrid sites in Australia is expected to benefit financial performance over time, and while market conditions remain tough, signs of stabilization and recovery are emerging. The outlook for Vulcan includes anticipated improvement in market volumes in New Zealand and steady performance in Australia’s Metals segment.
