<p><strong>Steel Dynamics Inc </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLD#NASDAQ">STLD</a>) shares are trading higher in Wednesday&#8217;s after-hours session on the heels of the company&#8217;s third-quarter financial results. Here&#8217;s a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/n41368536/steel-dynamics-reports-third-quarter-2024-results">rundown of the print</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Q3 Revenue:</strong> $4.34 billion, versus <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings">estimates</a> of $4.177 billion</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>Q3 EPS:</strong> $2.05, versus estimates of $1.97</li>
</ul>
<p>Steel Dynamics said it shipped 3.2 million tons of steel during the third quarter and generated cash flow from operations of $760 million. The company ended the quarter with $3.1 billion in liquidity.</p>
<p>&#8220;Underlying steel demand continued to be stable in the&nbsp;third quarter. However, earnings declined sequentially, based on lower average realized steel pricing, primarily within the flat rolled operations as generally&nbsp;80 percent&nbsp;of this business is contractually based and tied to lagging pricing indices,&#8221; said <strong>Mark Millett</strong>, co-founder, chairman and CEO of Steel Dynamics.</p>
<p>&#8220;Steady steel demand, coupled with continued low customer inventory and stabilized scrap prices, resulted in stabilization and improvement in flat-rolled steel prices during the later part of the third quarter. Our long product steel operations realized a slight improvement in metal spread as scrap pricing declined more than average realized pricing.&#8221;  </p>

<p><strong>What&#8217;s Next:</strong> Steel Dynamics said it&#8217;s &#8220;constructive&#8221; regarding the outlook for the 2025 metals market. The company expects steel prices to recover into 2025. </p>
<p>&#8220;We believe current trade actions could also reduce volumes of unfairly traded steel imports into the United States, especially for coated flat-rolled steel, which could have a significant positive impact for us,&#8221; the company said.</p>
<p>Steel Dynamics noted it expects to realize additional earnings power in 2025 from the four new flat-rolled steel coating lines that began operating earlier this year. The company also plans to start operating its new aluminum flat-rolled mill in mid-2025.</p>
<p><strong>Management will hold a conference call to discuss these results with investors and analysts Thursday morning at 11 a.m. ET.</strong></p>
<p><strong>STLD Price Action: </strong><a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/stld">Steel Dynamics shares</a> were up 2.43% in after-hours, trading at $133.02 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.</p>
