Steel Dynamics (NASDAQ: STLD) provided fourth quarter 2025 earnings guidance of $1.65 to $1.69 per diluted share versus sequential Q3 2025 earnings of $2.74 and prior‑year Q4 2024 earnings of $1.36. Management expects Q4 profitability to be meaningfully lower than Q3 due to lower average selling values and reduced volumes from seasonal demand and planned maintenance outages that cut flat rolled production by an estimated 140,000–150,000 tons. Indexed hot rolled steel prices fell by more than $70/ton from July to October 2025, lowering Q4 selling values on lagging contracts.
