Algoma Steel Q2 Adjusted EBITDA $13.8M; Record Plate Sales

AI Summary

Algoma Steel Group Inc. reported Q2 2026 results with Adjusted EBITDA of $13.8 million, a significant improvement from a $32.4 million loss in the prior-year quarter, supported by record plate sales and a $45.0 million insurance settlement. The company posted a net loss of $96.0 million on consolidated revenue of $267.5 million, reflecting lower shipments due to the EAF transition and U.S. Section 232 tariffs. EAF Unit Two construction is nearing completion, with first steel production anticipated in Q3 2026, and the company continues its pivot to a Canada-centric, plate-first strategy. While a joint venture with Roshel Inc. was formed, the MoU with Hanwha Ocean was suspended.
