โThe Worthington Steel team delivered a strong third quarter and I want to thank and congratulate our employees on their great performance in our first quarter as a standalone company,โ said Geoff Gilmore, president and chief executive officer of Worthington Steel. โWe saw improvements in sales, operating income and net income over the same quarter in 2023, and our teams are laser-focused on finishing the fiscal year strong.โ
Consolidated Quarterly Results
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $805.8 million, an increase of $25.1 million, or 3%, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was driven primarily by a 1% increase in direct selling prices and an 11% increase in toll selling prices. Additionally, there was a 1% increase in direct tons and a 9% increase in toll tons sold in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter. Correspondingly, the mix of direct tons versus toll tons processed was 55% to 45% in the current year quarter, compared to 56% to 44% in the prior year quarter.
Gross margin increased by $56.9 million over the prior year quarter to $120.1 million. The increase was driven primarily by improved direct spreads and higher volume. Direct spreads, up $52.9 million, benefited from a $45.9 million favorable change from an estimated $26.6 million inventory holding loss in the prior year quarter to an estimated $19.3 million inventory holding gain in the current year quarter.
Operating income improved by $56.8 million over the prior year quarter to $66.3 million, primarily due to the improved gross margin. Operating income incrementally benefited from a $3.0 million decrease in costs associated with the Company’s December 1, 2023, separation from Worthington Enterprises, Inc. (โSeparationโ) compared to the prior year quarter. These increases were offset by higher selling, general and administrative (โSG&Aโ) expense, up $3.1 million, primarily due to increased wage and benefit costs resulting from a combination of higher headcount after the Separation as well as continued inflationary pressures.
Recent Developments
- On December 1, 2023, in connection with the Separation of the Company from Worthington Enterprises, Inc. (โFormer Parentโ), a $150.0 million distribution was paid to the Former Parent.
- On March 13, 2024, Worthington Steel Joint Venture, TWB Company signed a licensing agreement with AcerlorMittal Tailored Blanks for a patented ablation technology that will expand the organizationโs capabilities in North America.
- On March 21, 2024, Worthington Steelโs Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.16 per share payable on June 28, 2024 to shareholders of record on June 14, 2024.
Outlook
โOur company is performing well,โ Gilmore said. โOur team is aligned and focused on creating value for our shareholders and working with our customers to ensure the products the world uses every day are stronger, better performing and more durable. Iโm optimistic about our future and confident in our team, our growth plans and our strategy.โ
