ArcelorMittal S.A.: ArcelorMittal reports first quarter 2026 results

Luxembourg, April 30, 2026 - ArcelorMittal (referred to as “ArcelorMittal” or the “Company” or the "Group") (MT (New York, Amsterdam, Paris, Luxembourg), MTS (Madrid)), the world’s leading integrated steel and mining company, today announced results¹ for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026

1Q 2026 key highlights:

Safety focus: Protecting employee health and safety is a core Company value. The multi-year safety transformation continues to deliver measurable improvements, with LTIFR improving to 0.45x in 1Q 2026 from 0.63x in 1Q 2025
Delivering structurally improved margins: The Group's results continue to demonstrate resilience, with 1Q 2026 EBITDA per tonne of $131/t increasing by $15/t year-on-year, reflecting the benefits of the strategic investment program, continued asset optimization and diversified market exposures. Net income in 1Q 2026 was $0.6bn (basic EPS of $0.76/sh)
Operational momentum: Record iron ore production and shipments in Liberia and a return to normalized operating levels in North America
Seasonal investment in working capital: A typical seasonal working capital investment of $1.5bn during the quarter led to a free cash outflow of $1.3bn and an increase in net debt to $9.3bn⁴. Liquidity⁷ remains at a robust $9.9bn and the Company's positive FCF outlook for 2026 and beyond remains unchanged
Consistent cash generation, supporting balanced capital allocation and continued growth investment: Over the past 12 months, the Company generated $2.0bn in investable cash flow⁶ (net cash provided by operating activities less maintenance/normative capex). Over the same period, the Company invested $1.5bn in strategic capex to build incremental long-term EBITDA capacity, returned $0.7bn to shareholders, and allocated $0.2bn to M&A
Capital return policy is creating significant value for shareholders: The Company paid its first quarterly interim dividend of $0.15 per share in March 2026, as part of a proposed annual dividend of $0.60 per share. The Company will continue to return a minimum of 50% of post-dividend free cash flow to shareholders through share buybacks. The fully diluted share count has been reduced by 38% since September 2020⁵

Strategic focus: 

Well positioned to benefit from a balanced and fair European steel market: The Company believes that CBAM (which now imposes a carbon cost on imports), together with the recently agreed tariff rate quota (TRQ) trade tool (expected to be effective from July 1, 2026), structurally resets the outlook for the European steel industry. Lower imports will lead to higher capacity utilization, restoring profitability and returns on capital to healthy, sustainable levels. ArcelorMittal is well positioned to capture the volume upside through: improved utilization of its existing operating capacity; restart of idled blast furnaces (Fos (France) & Dabrowa (Poland) currently in preparation); and the commissioning of the new Gijon EAF and expanded EAF capacity at Sestao

Strategic growth projects have good momentum and support higher EBITDA and ROCE: 1Q 2026 capex of $1.3bn includes $0.2bn payment on signing new Mineral Development Agreement in Liberia¹¹. 2026 capex guidance remains unchanged at $4.5bn-$5.0bn and includes $1.7-$2.0bn of strategic capex on high return projects. The potential incremental EBITDA impact of strategic capex projects (including completed M&A) is now $1.8bn⁶ and includes the benefits of the recently approved electric arc furnace at Dunkirk and previously announced EAF investments at Sestao and Gijón

Financial highlights (on the basis of IFRS¹):

Commenting, Aditya Mittal, ArcelorMittal Chief Executive Officer, said:

“Performance in the first quarter was resilient despite the unsettled backdrop in the Middle East with profitability of $131/t EBITDA reflecting the benefits of our global diversified asset portfolio and the consistent application of our strategy. We also continued to improve our safety performance with the lowest quarterly LTIFR in the history of the Group, showing the tangible results of our sustained focus in this area.

“The fundamentals of the business have improved over the past three months, driven in particular by the favourable structural reset in the European policy environment, including CBAM and the new tariff rate quota (TRQ) which is expected to significantly reduce imports into Europe from July 1. ArcelorMittal is well positioned to capture this upside through existing capacity and by re-starting idled capacity. In Europe, this will result in higher domestic capacity utilization and restore profitability and ROCE to healthy, sustainable levels.

“This will be also an important year for the Company’s strategic growth projects, which reflect the depth of the Company’s opportunity set across diverse growth vectors. Our investments, which ultimately will add an incremental $1.8 billion EBITDA, include the expansion of AM/NS India’s plant in Hazira, the ramp-up of mining in Liberia, the ramp up of the new EAF at Calvert to full capacity, as well as various opportunities related to the energy transition. We are also pleased that we have been able to take final investment decision on the new EAF in Dunkirk, supported by various policy initiatives at the European and French levels.

“We remain confident in ArcelorMittal’s prospects for the balance of the year, with the expected favourable impacts of new policy including a materially improved pricing and volume environment. Combined with the impact of our strategic investments, this supports ArcelorMittal’s free cash flow outlook and the delivery of consistent capital returns to shareholders.”

Safety and sustainable development

Health and safety:

Protecting employee health and well-being is a core value of the Company. The Group’s multi‑year safety transformation continues to deliver measurable improvements, with LTIF rate improving to 0.45x in 1Q’26 (from 0.63x in 1Q’25).

In 2026, the program entered its implementation and scale-up phase, with a strong focus on strengthening execution discipline and delivering consistent, high-quality safety performance across all regions through the safety roadmaps. Efforts have centered on reinforcing key enablers such as health and safety leadership capabilities, robust risk management, process safety management, and effective contractor integration. Together, these actions contribute to achieving our overarching ambition of zero fatalities and serious injuries through sustained improvement.

For further details on the progress to date on our safety transformation program, see the 2025 Sustainability report available on the Company's website.

Own personnel and contractors – Lost time injury frequency rate

Sustainable development highlights:

• CBAM (already in effect from January 1, 2026) and the agreed tariff rate quota (TRQ) trade tool (expected to be in effect from July 1, 2026), are expected to reset the European steel market by limiting imports and requiring those imports to bear a carbon cost. This is expected to support higher domestic capacity utilization, and restore profitability and ROCE to healthy, sustainable levels. ArcelorMittal has the capacity to meet anticipated market demand. In addition to operating existing furnaces at higher utilization, preparatory work has begun to restart the two idled blast furnaces at Fos (France) and Dąbrowa Górnicza (Poland), subject to market conditions.
• The Company’s investment in new EAF capacity is expected to be gradual, with the new EAF at Dunkirk (France) a clear example of disciplined, economic decarbonization. On February 10, 2026, ArcelorMittal announced a gross €1.3 billion investment in a 2Mt EAF in Dunkirk, with commissioning targeted for 2029. The project is underpinned by long‑term access to competitive low‑carbon energy, funding support covering 50% of the investment, and the supportive regulatory framework provided by CBAM and the new TRQ. The required cash outlay, net of funding through Energy Efficiency Certificates and avoided blast furnace relining capex, is justified by the expected incremental EBITDA.

Analysis of results for 1Q 2026 versus 4Q 2025

Sales increased by 3.2% to $15.5 billion in 1Q 2026 as compared to $15.0 billion in 4Q 2025, primarily reflecting higher average steel prices.

Operating income increased to $0.8 billion in 1Q 2026 as compared to $0.3 billion in 4Q 2025, which had included $194 million of exceptional charges³.

Depreciation cost for 1Q 2026 was $749 million, lower than $856 million in 4Q 2025 which was impacted by certain assets reaching end of life. 12M 2026 depreciation guidance remains unchanged at approximately $3.0 billion.

EBITDA increased by 5.4% to $1,679 million in 1Q 2026 as compared to $1,593 million in 4Q 2025, primarily driven by improved performance in the North America segment.

Foreign exchange and other net financial charges amounted to $80 million in 1Q 2026, lower than $450 million in 4Q 2025, primarily reflecting lower foreign exchange charges. The prior period also included a non-recurring cost of $0.1 billion related to the extension of the mandatory convertible bond¹⁰.

Net interest cost increased to $133 million in 1Q 2026 as compared to $91 million in 4Q 2025, primarily due to higher gross debt and lower interest income.

Income tax expense of $136 million in 1Q 2026 compares with an income tax benefit of $201 million in 4Q 2025. 4Q 2025 was impacted by recognition of deferred tax assets following revised expectations of future profitability, primarily in Europe.

Net income in 1Q 2026 increased to $575 million (EPS of $0.76/sh) compared with $177 million (EPS of $0.23/sh) in 4Q 2025. Adjusted net income of $654 million was higher in 4Q 2025 primarily on account of higher deferred tax benefits partially offset by higher foreign exchange and other net financial charges.

Net cash used in operating activities in 1Q 2026 amounted to $9 million and includes a $1.5 billion seasonal investment in working capital. Capex totalled $1.3 billion for 1Q 2026 (including a $0.2 billion payment on signing new Mineral Development Agreement in Liberia)¹¹. Net debt increased to $9.3 billion as at March 31, 2026, as compared to $7.9 billion on December 31, 2025.

Analysis of operations

North America

Crude steel production increased by 18.3% to 2.1Mt in 1Q 2026, as compared with 1.8Mt in 4Q 2025, primarily driven by the successful restart of the Mexico Long products blast furnace following preventive maintenance.

Sales increased by 8.3% in 1Q 2026 to $3.3 billion, as compared to $3.0 billion in 4Q 2025, primarily reflecting higher steel shipments (+5.2%) and higher average steel selling prices (+3.5%).

Operating income improved to $206 million in 1Q 2026 as compared with an operating loss of $21 million in 4Q 2025.

EBITDA in 1Q 2026 increased to $383 million as compared to $204 million in 4Q 2025, driven mainly by a positive price-cost effect and higher steel shipments.

Brazil⁹

Sales in 1Q 2026 decreased by 3.2% to $2.8 billion as compared to $2.9 billion in 4Q 2025, driven by lower steel shipments (-8.8%), largely reflecting seasonality and timing of slab export volume, partially offset by higher average steel selling prices (reflecting a richer mix).

Operating income was broadly stable at $223 million in 1Q 2026 as compared to $229 million in 4Q 2025.

EBITDA in 1Q 2026 of $334 million was stable as compared to $341 million in 4Q 2025, primarily due to lower steel shipments, partially offset by a richer mix (lower slab exports).

Europe

Crude steel production totaled 6.8Mt in 1Q 2026, representing a 6.8% increase compared to 6.4Mt in 4Q 2025. Production in 1Q 2026 nevertheless remained impacted by ongoing maintenance ahead of planned restarts in 2Q 2026. Compared to 1Q 2025, crude steel production was also impacted by the sale of the company’s Bosnian operations.

Sales increased by 10.6% to $7.4 billion in 1Q 2026 as compared to $6.7 billion in 4Q 2025, primarily reflecting higher steel shipments (+8.1%), with Flat products up 12.1% and Long products down 2.1% and higher average steel selling prices.

Operating income in 1Q 2026 was $239 million as compared to $49 million in 4Q 2025, which primarily included $166 million of exceptional charges³.

EBITDA in 1Q 2026 of $501 million compared to $518 million in 4Q 2025, with the benefits of higher steel shipments offset by a negative price cost effect including the impact of reduced free CO2 allocations. With CBAM in place, the additional CO2 cost is expected to be recovered via steel prices from 2Q 2026 onwards.

Sustainable Solutions

Sales in 1Q 2026 were broadly stable at $2.6 billion as compared to 4Q 2025.

Operating income improved to $69 million in 1Q 2026 from an operating loss of $10 million in 4Q 2025, which included $28 million of exceptional charges related to restructuring costs and impairments of $17 million.

EBITDA increased to $124 million in 1Q 2026 as compared to $106 million in 4Q 2025 with improved performance of the downstream businesses.

Mining

Note: Mining segment comprises iron ore operations of ArcelorMittal Mines Canada (AMMC) and ArcelorMittal Liberia.

Sales in 1Q 2026 were broadly stable at $0.9 billion as compared to 4Q 2025.

Iron ore production totalled 9.7Mt in 1Q 2026, 3.2% lower versus 10.1Mt in 4Q 2025, driven by seasonally lower volumes at ArcelorMittal Mines Canada (AMMC) offset by higher output in Liberia. Liberia delivered another record quarter for iron ore production and shipments. The continued concentrator capacity ramp‑up is expected to support higher sinter feed shipments with higher price realizations. Liberia shipment guidance remains unchanged at >18Mt in 2026.

Operating income increased to $215 million in 1Q 2026 as compared to $198 million in 4Q 2025.

EBITDA of $299 million in 1Q 2026 was 4.8% lower as compared to $314 million in 4Q 2025 primarily due to higher freight costs.

India and JVs

Income from associates, joint ventures and other investments declined to $177 million in 1Q 2026, as compared to $206 million in 4Q 2025, due to weaker Chinese investee performance partly offset by stronger AMNS India results.

ArcelorMittal has investments in various joint ventures and associate entities globally. The Company considers AMNS India (60% equity interest) joint venture to be of particular strategic importance, warranting more detailed disclosures to improve the understanding of its operational performance and value to the Group.

AMNS India

Sales increased by 1.6% to $1.6 billion in 1Q 2026 as compared to 4Q 2025, driven by higher average steel selling prices offset in part by 12% decrease in steel shipment volumes due to planned maintenance.

EBITDA increased by 17.9% to $195 million in 1Q 2026 as compared to $166 million in 4Q 2025, primarily due to a positive price-cost effect, partially offset by lower steel shipment volumes.

Recent development

• On March 23, 2026, AMNS India announced plans to construct a greenfield integrated steel plant in Rajayyapeta, Andhra Pradesh, with a Phase 1 capacity of 8.2Mtpa. The facility is designed as a low‑cost, highly efficient coastal asset positioned to serve India’s fastest‑growing steel‑demand region. The project leverages proven blast‑furnace designs and execution experience from the Hazira expansion, benefits from proximity to high‑quality iron ore and access to a deep‑water port, and prioritizes early cash generation, with downstream capacity targeted for 1Q 2029 and primary steelmaking targeted in 2030/31. These timelines assume all remaining approvals are received on schedule, including securing an appropriate long-term iron ore supply contract with NMDC. Phase 1 capex of $7.5–$8.0 billion (includes infrastructure to support future capacity options) to be deployed over five to six years. Commencement of this project follows the completion of the Hazira capacity expansion project. As a result, AMNS India capex is expected to remain broadly stable.

9. The acquisition of Votorantim’s long steel business in Brazil in 2018 significantly strengthened ArcelorMittal’s market position, adding approximately 2Mt of annual production capacity, increasing market share, and unlocking cost efficiencies alongside substantial operational, logistics, and procurement synergies. As part of the original deal structure, Votorantim and ArcelorMittal retained certain put and call option rights. In March 2022, Votorantim exercised its put option, resulting in a valuation dispute that proceeded to arbitration in Brazil. Following hearings in October 2024, the parties reached a settlement in June 2025, under which ArcelorMittal Brasil will pay approximately $546 million over three years. Net of amounts previously provisioned, ArcelorMittal recorded a net amount of $0.4 billion in 2Q 2025 as an exceptional item. The first instalment of $0.2 billion was paid in 3Q 2025, with 3 further annual payments of $0.1 billion due.
10. On December 19, 2025, ArcelorMittal extended the conversion date for the $0.7 billion privately placed mandatory convertible bond (MCB) issued on December 28, 2009 by one of its wholly-owned Luxembourg subsidiaries.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking information and statements about ArcelorMittal and its subsidiaries. These statements include financial projections and estimates and their underlying assumptions, statements regarding plans, objectives and expectations with respect to future operations, products and services, and statements regarding future performance. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the words “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “target”, "projected", "potential", "intend" or similar expressions. Although ArcelorMittal’s management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, investors and holders of ArcelorMittal’s securities are cautioned that forward-looking information and statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond the control of ArcelorMittal, that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially and adversely from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements. These risks and uncertainties include those discussed or identified in the filings with the Luxembourg Stock Market Authority for the Financial Markets (Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) made or to be made by ArcelorMittal, including ArcelorMittal’s latest Annual Report on Form 20-F on file with the SEC. ArcelorMittal undertakes no obligation to publicly update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Non-GAAP/Alternative Performance Measures

This press release also includes certain non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures. ArcelorMittal presents EBITDA, EBITDA/tonne, free cash flow (FCF), adjusted net income and adjusted basic earnings per share which are non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures, as additional measures to enhance the understanding of its operating performance. The definition of EBITDA includes income from share of associates, JVs and other investments (excluding impairments and exceptional items if any, of associates, JVs and other investments) because the Company believes this information provides investors with additional information to understand its results, given the increasing significance of its joint ventures. ArcelorMittal believes such indicators are relevant to provide management and investors with additional information. ArcelorMittal also presents net debt, liquidity and change in working capital as additional measures to enhance the understanding of its financial position, changes to its capital structure and its credit assessment. Investable cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less maintenance/normative capex, and the Company thus believes that it represents a cash flow that is available for allocation at management’s discretion. The Company’s guidance as to free cash flow and additional EBITDA estimated to be generated from certain projects is based on the same accounting policies as those applied in the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. ArcelorMittal is unable to reconcile, without unreasonable effort, such guidance to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the financial impact of items impacting comparability. For the same reasons, ArcelorMittal is unable to address the significance of the unavailable information. Non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures should be read in conjunction with, and not as an alternative to, ArcelorMittal's financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Comparable IFRS measures and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures are presented herein.
