Gerdau S.A. reported adjusted EBITDA of BRL 2.6 billion in Q2 2025 and a 14% rise in net income to BRL 864 million, driven by strong results in North America, which supplied 61% of consolidated EBITDA. The company is reducing investment in Brazil due to high import penetration and is focusing on cost cuts, operational efficiency and generating positive cash flow for H2 2025. Management cited Midlothian project delays and supply‑chain risks as potential challenges, but expects mid‑term EBITDA growth from mining and hot-rolled coil projects. » More on de.investing.com
