Algoma Steel Says Shipments Down 31% in Q4, Driven by Tariffs; Net Loss Widens

Algoma Steel's Q4 revenue dropped to $455 million with tariff costs hitting $60.6 million amid a 31% shipment decline and workforce cuts to about 1,800 employees.

  • On Wednesday, Algoma Steel Group Inc. reported a net loss of $364.7 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, with results first published on March 11, 2026.
  • Before the trade war, the U.S. market accounted for about 60 per cent of Algoma's revenue, and U.S. duties increased to 50, constraining access, with $60.6 million in tariff costs.
  • Shipments fell 31 per cent to 378,533 tons, and revenue declined to $455 million, with a $27 million reduction from price gaps as Canadian prices were up to 40 per cent lower vs U.S.
  • The layoffs, which take effect on March 23, will see the company incur severance costs of $45.8 million and reduce the workforce to about 1,800 workers.
  • The company accelerated its electric arc furnace rollout as the first EAF began production in July and now runs 24-hour furnace operations while pivoting to plate production for military applications.
