By Public Technologies
  • Gerdau held its third-quarter 2026 earnings call October 27 with CEO Gustavo Werneck, CFO Rafael Japur and investor relations head Mariana Dutra.
  • EBITDA reached BRL 3.8 billion, with a 20.2% margin; free cash flow totaled BRL 1.4 billion.
  • North American margins reached 27.7%; management expects fourth-quarter stability as seasonal volume declines and Midlothian shutdown costs offset higher prices.
  • Management plans to reduce Brazilian exports amid import pressure, with a broader restructuring plan due at the December 4 Investor Day.
  • Miguel Burnier's expansion could contribute roughly BRL 400 million in 2027; rainy conditions will slow its ramp-up, delaying full benefits.
