Nucor Corporation 실적 발표
Buzzberg 분석
Steel mill backlogs up nearly 40% year over year
Nucor's Q4 2025 earnings call was resolutely optimistic, with management highlighting a significant step-down in capital expenditures, record-high order backlogs, and a structural decline in steel imports. The company expects 2026 to be a year of high free cash flow generation despite a mixed demand environment, positioning it over the cycle. Nucor expects a substantial free cash flow inflection in 2026, driven by lower capex ($2.5B vs $3.4B in 2025) and incremental EBITDA from recently completed projects.
