Nucor Guides Q2 2026 Adjusted EPS to $4.50-$4.60, Topping $4.27 Consensus — Reshoring Fuels Steel Profit Surge

Nucor guided second-quarter 2026 adjusted earnings per share to a range of $4.50 to $4.60, topping the Wall Street consensus of $4.27 by as much as 8%. The steelmaker pointed to higher realized selling prices across its steel mills segment and durable demand tied to domestic reshoring, data center construction, and infrastructure spending. Continued enforcement of anti-dumping and Section 232 tariffs has pushed imports' share of the U.S. finished steel market down to roughly 15% from over 22% a year earlier.
