AK Steel Profits Dwindle in Third Quarter
Written by Sandy Williams
AK Steel eked out a net income of $2.8 million in the third quarter, down from $66.8 million in Q2 and $67.2 million in Q3 2018. Included in net income was a $15.3 million mark-to-market loss from iron ore derivatives.
Net sales of $1.5 billion fell 12 percent year-over-year and 9 percent from the second quarter due to a sharp drop in carbon spot market prices and lower shipments.
