Steel Dynamics (ISIN US8581191009) was trading at EUR 217.30 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026 at 12:31 p.m. CEST. The company will release its third-quarter 2026 results after the market close on October 19, according to Steel Dynamics on October 8, 2026.

Results arrive with guidance

The scheduled report follows third-quarter guidance of USD 5.34-5.38 in diluted earnings per share. Steel Dynamics issued that range on September 17, 2026, compared with USD 3.69 in the second quarter and USD 2.74 in the year-earlier quarter. The company said steel operations should benefit from wider metal margins and record shipments, while metals recycling faced lower spreads and shipments.

The company also said its steel fabrication backlog was nearly 50 percent higher than the prior-year third-quarter level and extended through the first quarter of 2027. That contrast makes the October report a test of whether stronger steel and fabrication activity can offset pressure in recycling.

What does the next report test?

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, Steel Dynamics reported USD 6.09 billion in revenue, USD 530.79 million in net income and USD 3.69 in diluted earnings per share. Revenue was 33.4 percent higher than in the same quarter of the prior year, while operating profit reached USD 700.48 million. These figures come from the company's quarterly financial statements for the period.

Zacks reported on October 14, 2026 that consensus projections called for USD 5.42 in third-quarter earnings per share and USD 6.11 billion in revenue. The same report said the earnings-per-share estimate had been reduced by 0.5 percent over the prior 30 days.

Three dates set the chronology

On July 21, 2026, Steel Dynamics reported second-quarter revenue of USD 6.09 billion and diluted earnings per share of USD 3.69. On September 17, 2026, it issued third-quarter guidance of USD 5.34-5.38 per diluted share. On October 8, 2026, it scheduled the third-quarter release for October 19, according to the linked company releases.

Next dates for investors

The next substantiated dates are October 19, 2026, for the third-quarter results, and October 20, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. EDT for the earnings call, both announced by Steel Dynamics.

Analyst target points to caution

MarketBeat reported on October 9, 2026 that JPMorgan cut its price target from USD 272 to USD 260 and kept a neutral rating. The same report cited a USD 257.45 average target from 12 analysts, including eight Buy and four Hold ratings.

Stock price and reporting calendar

The earnings date gives Steel Dynamics stock a defined near-term event, while the guidance range sets a measurable benchmark for the report. The balance between steel margins, fabrication demand and recycling spreads is the key operating comparison.
