Worthington Steel: Tariff Woes Are A Concern, But The Firm Is A Buy Nonetheless
Worthington Steel's stock has fallen 18% since December due to economic concerns and weak fundamentals, but long-term investors should consider it a buy due to its cheap valuation. The company's Q3 2025 revenue dropped 14.7% year-over-year, driven by a 10.6% decline in volume and lower pricing. Tariffs pose risks, especially to the automotive sector, but Worthington Steel's localized sales strategy helps mitigate some of these impacts.
