Reliance, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

$RSPress releaseOct 21, 2026, 4:05 PM ETRead the release

Reliance delivered record Q3 net sales of $5.21 billion (up 42.8% YoY) with non-GAAP EPS of $8.02, far above its own $6.40-$6.60 guidance and up 120% year-over-year. Results were driven by record tons sold, an 8.2% sequential rise in average selling price, and a $0.74 per-share contribution from the U.S. border wall contract, partially offset by higher-than-expected LIFO expense of $2.74 per share.
