Ryerson Holding Corporation reported preliminary fourth quarter 2025 results showing revenue of $1.10 billion but a net loss of $37.9 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, significantly wider than its expected net loss range of $7 million to $9 million. Tons shipped fell 4.9% sequentially while average selling prices were essentially flat, and gross margin compressed from 17.2% to 15.3% as material costs rose faster than anticipated and resale prices held steady. LIFO expense was $22.5 million versus guidance of $10 million to $14 million, driving Adjusted EBITDA excluding LIFO down to $20.4 million, below the $33 million to $37 million guidance range.
Despite the loss, Ryerson generated $112.7 million of operating cash flow, reducing outstanding debt to $463 million and lowering its leverage ratio from 3.7x to 3.1x. For the first quarter of 2026, it expects volume to increase 13% to 15% over the fourth quarter, net sales of $1.26 billion to $1.30 billion, net income of $10 million to $12 million before merger-related fees, and Adjusted EBITDA excluding LIFO of $51 million to $54 million. If the planned merger with Olympic Steel closes during the quarter, Ryerson estimates adding $260 million to $280 million of revenue and $12 million to $13 million of incremental Adjusted EBITDA excluding LIFO.

Ryerson Holding Corporation plans an all-stock acquisition of Olympic Steel, Inc., creating a combined metals service center business. Ryerson will merge a subsidiary into Olympic Steel, which will become a wholly owned subsidiary and be delisted from Nasdaq, while Ryerson remains listed on the NYSE.
Olympic Steel shareholders will receive 1.7105 shares of Ryerson common stock for each Olympic Steel share, with cash paid instead of fractional Ryerson shares. Based on a recent Ryerson share price, this implied a modest premium to Olympic Steel’s market price. After closing, Ryerson stockholders are expected to own about 63.0% of the combined company and Olympic Steel shareholders about 37.0% on a fully diluted basis.
Special virtual-only meetings on February 12, 2026 will ask Ryerson stockholders to approve issuing Ryerson shares in the merger and possible adjournments, and Olympic Steel shareholders to adopt the merger agreement, approve a merger-related executive compensation advisory proposal, and possible adjournments. Both boards unanimously determined the merger is fair and in their owners’ best interests and recommend voting “FOR” all respective proposals. The merger also provides for detailed treatment of Olympic Steel equity and cash incentive awards, with many awards converted into Ryerson-based awards or cash amounts tied to the 1.7105 exchange ratio.
Ryerson shared details of a proposed merger with Olympic Steel (ZEUS), positioning the combined company as a larger North American metals service center. The companies cite a combined footprint of 164 locations, nearly 16,000,000 square feet of service center space, and about $6.5 billion in trailing 12‑month revenue.
The combined board is planned to include 11 directors (7 from Ryerson and 4 from Olympic Steel). Next steps include filing a joint proxy statement and a Form S‑4 registration statement, followed by shareholder votes and required regulatory approvals. Management noted “gating items” over the next 90 days and currently expects closing by the end of Q1 2026, subject to approvals and customary conditions.
Risks highlighted include potential failure to obtain approvals, an adverse shareholder vote, or a competing bid for Olympic Steel. The message emphasizes maintaining focus on ongoing operations while the transaction proceeds through the approval process.
Olympic Steel (ZEUS) entered a definitive merger agreement with Ryerson Holding. Crimson MS Corp., a Ryerson subsidiary, will merge into Olympic Steel, with Olympic Steel surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ryerson.
At closing, each Olympic Steel share will convert into 1.7105 shares of Ryerson common stock, rounded down to the nearest whole share, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. The Board unanimously approved the deal and will recommend it to shareholders.
Equity and cash awards will be assumed or cashed out per grant type, using the 1.7105 exchange ratio and, when applicable, the closing price of Ryerson stock on the Closing Date. The transaction requires approvals from both companies’ shareholders, NYSE listing of Ryerson shares issued, an effective Form S-4, HSR clearance, and other customary conditions. It is not subject to a financing condition. The merger agreement includes termination fees of $15,000,000 tied to recommendation changes or certain breaches, and expense reimbursement up to $10,000,000 if stockholder approvals are not obtained. The outside date is April 28, 2026, extendable to July 28, 2026 for pending regulatory approvals.
