Q1 2026 earnings summary8 Jan, 2026

Executive summary

  • Achieved one of the best first quarters in company history, with net earnings of $177.3 million ($1.58 per diluted share) and adjusted earnings of $206.2 million ($1.84 per diluted share), reversing a prior year net loss and reflecting strong operational execution and favorable market conditions.

  • Closed major acquisitions of CP&P and Foley, deploying over $2.5 billion to create one of the largest precast concrete businesses in the U.S. and expanding the Construction Solutions Group.

  • Launched the TAG (Transform, Advance, Grow) program, targeting $150 million annualized run-rate EBITDA benefit by end of FY 2026, and rebranded the Emerging Businesses Group to Construction Solutions Group.

  • Benefited from strong North American market conditions, strategic initiatives, and key talent onboarding, driving significant bottom-line improvements.

Financial highlights

  • Net sales rose 11% year-over-year to $2.12 billion, with consolidated core EBITDA reaching $316.9 million (up 52% year-over-year) and a core EBITDA margin of 14.9%.

  • Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $1.84, up from $0.76 year-over-year.

  • North America Steel Group adjusted EBITDA was $293.9 million, up 58% year-over-year, with a margin of 17.7%.

  • Construction Solutions Group net sales grew 17% to $198.3 million, with adjusted EBITDA up 75% to $39.6 million and a margin of 20%.

  • Europe Steel Group adjusted EBITDA declined to $10.9 million, impacted by lower CO2 credits and higher maintenance costs, despite higher shipping volumes.

Outlook and guidance

  • Q2 core EBITDA expected to decline modestly due to seasonal slowdown and maintenance, partially offset by precast contributions.

  • North America Steel Group EBITDA anticipated to be lower sequentially due to seasonality and maintenance, with stable metal margins.

  • Construction Solutions Group results projected to improve in Q2, driven by precast contributions.

  • Europe Steel Group EBITDA expected to be breakeven in Q2, with margin growth potential later in the year as CBAM takes effect.

  • FY2026 capital spending projected at $625 million, mainly for the Steel West Virginia micromill and precast businesses.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
