Reports Q1 revenue $9.5B, consensus $8.86B. “Nucor (NUE) teammates delivered a strong start to 2026, with our steel mills segment achieving a new quarterly shipment record,” said Leon Topalian, Nucor’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer. “All three of our operating segments reported sequential earnings growth, driven by strong demand across key end markets, growing contributions from recent capital investments, and federal trade policies that continue to reduce the flood of unfairly traded imports into the United States. We enter the second quarter with real momentum, committed to executing our growth strategy, generating strong returns for our shareholders, and continuing our pursuit of becoming the safest steel company in the world.”
