A well-financed steel/rebar maker at the bottom of its earnings cycle — the 98x P/E is on trough profits, not a real multiple.

Net income $84.7M · FY2025

The read

Middling fundamentals and a rich price (~92% above fair value) leave little margin of safety — a wait-and-see.

Commercial Metals is a vertically integrated maker of rebar and steel long products serving construction markets, and FY2025 (year ended August 2025) was clearly a cyclical trough. Revenue dipped 1.6% to $7.80B, but net income collapsed 82.6% to just $84.7M as steel spreads and pricing compressed — driving a 1.1% net margin and a 2.0% ROE. The headline 97.8 P/E is therefore not a meaningful valuation signal; it reflects depressed trough earnings, not an expensive business. The multi-year history frames the cyclicality starkly: net income ran $413M, $1.22B, $860M, $485M and now $84.7M.
