Reliance RS Q3 2026 earnings

“Reliance delivered an exceptional third quarter with record quarterly net sales and our third-highest quarterly earnings per share. We capitalized on a favorable market environment, characterized by continued healthy demand and tight supply, leading to increased price levels for most carbon steel products. Our long-term strategy of supporting both our valued customers and key domestic mill partners positioned us particularly well to benefit from these dynamics. Our scale, product diversification, expansive value-added processing capabilities, and ability to source the inventory our customers need, led by the strong execution of our teams in the field, drove our exceptional results. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security border wall contract we were awarded earlier this year continued to ramp and delivered another meaningful contribution to third quarter earnings. Our smart, profitable growth strategy once again produced record quarterly tons shipped, contributing to non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $8.02, up 120% year-over-year.”
