Outlook

"We remain optimistic about the demand outlook in our key markets. Our second quarter of fiscal 2019 will include normal seasonality, which will reduce shipment rates at our facilities; however we expect the quarter to be strong in comparison to historical second quarter results, due to the contribution from our strategic growth initiatives," said Ms. Smith. "We expect to see continued growth from our investment in the new Durant, OK micro mill, as well as growth from the ongoing integration of the newly acquired rebar assets. We are confident that these will position us well to serve our customers in this period of strong demand and deliver enhanced returns to our shareholders.
