Norbolsa | The company reports that Q4 2025 EBITDA stood at €1.59 billion, exceeding expectations of €1.51 billion. The South African subsidiary stands out, having managed to reduce its annual losses by 34% thanks to lower raw material costs and the closure of its long steel business, while the parent company resumes talks with ArcelorMittal South Africa’s second-largest shareholder, Industrial Development Corporation (IDC), for a possible transaction.
ArcelorMittal is raising its dividend for 2026 to $0.6 per share (from $0.55 per share), to be distributed in four quarterly payments.
The outlook for 2026 points to a 2% improvement in apparent steel demand globally (excluding China).
