Bulls say / Bears say
CLF’s operating recovery is gaining pace: third-quarter adjusted EBITDA rose to $612 million from $286 million in the prior quarter, and management expects about $715 million in Q4. The company also returned to a quarterly profit. (Cleveland-Cliffs, Bloomberg)
Management expects 2027 adjusted EBITDA to exceed $4 billion, citing signed customer contracts and current steel-price forecasts. That points to substantial earnings potential if those contracts and market conditions hold. (Cleveland-Cliffs)
A $200 million expansion at Butler Works, backed by a $75 million Department of Energy award, is expected to lift grain-oriented electrical steel output by up to 25%. It gives CLF a larger position in a market supported by investment in power-grid infrastructure and transformers. (Cleveland-Cliffs)
Stelco has indefinitely idled its galvanising lines because of oversupply in Canada, while Ottawa is weighing fines or a forced asset sale over planned layoffs. This creates operating disruption and a risk of costly government intervention. (The Wall Street Journal, Cleveland-Cliffs)
Steel earnings remain cyclical: CLF lost $134 million in Q2 before returning to profit in Q3 as selling prices rose and costs fell. A reversal in pricing or costs could quickly weaken the recovery. (Cleveland-Cliffs, Cleveland-Cliffs)
CLF plans a $1 billion Middletown modernisation over four years, with the company funding half, while management is also targeting lower leverage by mid-2027. The cash commitment could constrain debt reduction if the earnings recovery falls short. (Cleveland-Cliffs, Cleveland-Cliffs)
