[Operator Instructions] Please note, this event is being recorded.
Commercial Metals Company remains a cyclical steel producer with limited upside, despite recent M&A and strong 4Q26 results. CMC's 4Q26 outperformance was driven by favorable steel spreads and lower scrap costs, not sustainable volume or margin improvements. The $2.5B precast acquisition adds diversification but does not materially reduce cyclicality or justify a higher valuation multiple.
