What the Analysts think about Reliance
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Reliance stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Reliance stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Reliance delivered strong operating momentum in the second quarter: sales rose 26.5%, tons sold rose 10.8%, and non-GAAP EPS rose 42% year on year. Management then guided to third-quarter non-GAAP EPS of $6.40–$6.60, with tons sold expected to rise 9%–11% year on year. (GlobeNewswire)
Demand is improving across several attractive markets, including data centres, infrastructure, semiconductors, aerospace, defence and manufacturing. The border wall contract is adding volume, while Reliance says its domestic mill relationships and processing network help it secure supply when lead times are extended. (GlobeNewswire, Investing.com)
Low leverage gives Reliance room to keep investing and returning cash to shareholders: management reported net debt to EBITDA of 0.9 times and planned about $300 million of 2026 capital expenditure. Its scale, selective acquisitions and value-added processing can support further market-share gains without relying solely on metal-price inflation. (GlobeNewswire, Investing.com)
Higher carbon-steel and aluminium costs sharply increased inventory accounting pressure: Reliance raised its full-year LIFO expense forecast from $150 million to $300 million. Second-quarter LIFO expense was $112.5 million, far above the $37.5 million previously expected, showing how quickly cost inflation can hit reported earnings. (GlobeNewswire)
Reliance remains exposed to tariff and trade-policy swings, particularly in aluminium. Management said tariff-driven price increases were not fully supported by demand and warned that a North American trade deal could lower prices and devalue high-cost inventory. (Investing.com, Seeking Alpha)
Part of the near-term earnings uplift is tied to the government border wall project rather than broad underlying demand: management included about $0.60 per share from it in third-quarter guidance. The project also contributed $0.41 per share in the second quarter, so delays, supply constraints or completion would leave a meaningful gap to fill. (GlobeNewswire)
