Compared with Q2 2025, EPS rose about 86% from $2.60, and revenue rose from $8.5 billion. EPS was also about 47% above Q1 2026's $3.30.

Annual EPS fell from $28.73 in 2022 to $17.99 in 2023, $8.85 in 2024 and $7.73 in 2025. The first half of 2026 added up to $8.14, already above the full 2025 total and roughly 2.4 times the same period a year earlier. The quarterly high in the table was Q2 2022, at $9.67 per share. The low was Q1 2025, at $0.77. Over the last 20 quarters, Nucor topped the EPS estimate 16 times. The largest beat was Q4 2024, at 89.94%, and the largest miss was Q4 2025, at 9.42% below.

Nucor reported Q3 between October 20 and October 27 in each of the past five years. That points to late October 2026 for the next report. It will show whether the rebound of the first half carries into the third quarter.
