Nucor Corporation reported net earnings of $1.32 billion for Q3 2026, or $5.80 per diluted share, significantly up from $607 million in Q3 2025. The increase was driven by higher steel prices and volumes, especially in steel mills and steel products segments, despite some cost pressures and lower raw material earnings. The company generated $2.7 billion in free cash flow over the first nine months of 2026 and returned $1.4 billion to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks. Nucor expects Q4 2026 earnings to be stable or modestly higher, supported by continued strong demand and ongoing operational improvements.
