Substantial Cost Reductions Helped Schnitzer Steel Industries Deliver Impressive 4Q Results
Schnitzer Steel Industries reported encouraging results in its fiscal fourth quarter of 2016. Although average selling prices for ferrous scrap declined materially year on year, the company's success implementing cost reductions supported higher adjusted operating income. To better capture Schnitzer's more favorable cost structure, we've modestly increased our operating margin forecasts for the company. As a result, our fair value estimate rises to $11 per share from $10. However, we still view ...Schnitzer Steel Industries is engaged as a recycler of ferrous and nonferrous scrap metal, including end-of-life vehicles, and a manufacturer of finished steel products. The company has two segments: Auto and Metals Recycling, which acquires and recycles ferrous and nonferrous scrap metal for sale to foreign and domestic metal producers, processors and brokers, and procures salvaged vehicles and sells serviceable used auto parts from these vehicles through a network of self-service auto parts stores; and Cascade Steel and Scrap, which produces a range of finished steel long products using ferrous recycled scrap metal and other raw materials.
