Nucor (NUE) Tops Q2 EPS by 141c

Nucor (NYSE: NUE) reported Q2 EPS of $9.67, $1.41 better than the analyst estimate of $8.26. Revenue for the quarter came in at $11.79 billion versus the consensus estimate of $11.47 billion.

Third Quarter of 2022 Outlook:

As we enter the third quarter, demand remains stable and resilient across the major end-use markets we serve, and customer inventory levels appear right-sized relative to economic conditions. Though we expect a decrease from the record-setting second quarter, we expect another strong quarter of profitability in the third quarter of 2022. We believe that 2022 will be the most profitable year in Nucor's history.

We expect the steel mills segment earnings to be sequentially lower in the third quarter of 2022, due to lower expected shipment volumes and average selling prices, particularly at our sheet and plate mills. The steel products segment is expected to have another very strong quarter in the third quarter of 2022, with earnings roughly in-line with the second quarter of 2022. Raw materials segment earnings are expected to improve in the third quarter of 2022 due to higher realized pricing at our DRI facilities.
