ArcelorMittal's Q1 2025 Financial Performance

ArcelorMittal announced its first-quarter sales for 2025 at $14.8 billion, marking a 9% decline from the previous year's $16.3 billion. This downturn is attributed to weaker steel prices and a subdued global demand.

Financial Highlights and Strategic Resilience

The company's net income saw a 14% decrease, falling to $805 million from $938 million in Q1 2024. Basic earnings per share also dropped by 9.5% to $1.05, and EBITDA declined by 19% to $1.6 billion.

Despite these challenges, ArcelorMittal highlighted its operational strength in Liberia and North America as key factors supporting its margins. The company remains committed to its strategic investment plans and capital return policy, showcasing resilience in a tough market.
