Steel Dynamics Sees Uptick Ahead in Volumes, Profitability from Aluminum Operations

Dow Jones07-21 04:47

The company expects volumes and profitability from its aluminum operations to increase sharply in the second half 2026 and for full year 2027, as startup costs subside, utilization and yields improve, and scrap content increases. Its Columbus, Mississippi, flat-rolled mill is gaining traction as it ramps up production. Two of three cold mills are now operational, with the third commissioning in July. Aluminum shipments rose to 53,000 metric tons in the quarter while hot band production reached 84,000 metric tons. Full capacity of 650,000 metric tons becomes available once the final cold mill transitions to commercial operations.
