Nucor delivered record quarterly steel mill shipments of 7 million tons and EPS of $3.23, up 382% year-over-year, generating approximately $1.5 billion in EBITDA. Backlog growth signaled sustained demand momentum, and trade policy continued reducing import competition. The West Virginia sheet mill approached commissioning. Management raised the shipment growth outlook to more than 5% for 2026, and data center and infrastructure demand drove broad-based strength across the portfolio.
