# Metallus share price today (Metallus Inc., MTUS) > Metallus Inc.'s share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer. MTUS · Materials · Steel · data as of 3 November 2026. Page: https://www.sectoralpha.in/us/stocks/mtus Sector Alpha also publishes a daily newsletter that explains one Indian stock at a time: https://newsletter.sectoralpha.in/?utm_source=sectoralpha&utm_medium=ai_text&utm_campaign=llms ## Key numbers - Business trend: Getting worse, from the last 12 quarters - Price: $19.69 (+11.9% in a year) - P/E: 34.7×, over 4.6 years - Revenue (Jun 2026): $341 M (+12.0% on a year ago) - Profit (Jun 2026): $8.9 M (+140.5% on a year ago) - Operating margin: 3.5% (flat on a year ago) - ROE: 0%, FY25 - ROIC: 1.1%, against a 11.8% cost of capital: −10.7 points The main question: the share price moved +11.9% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −200.0%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. ## What is the Metallus share price today? Metallus Inc.'s share price was $19.69 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been rising for 6 weeks. That is 2.8% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $15 and $22, and at that close it sat 70% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 1 week running. Over the last 10 years the share price moved +90% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 30 October 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Metallus pay? Metallus Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Metallus on? Metallus is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Metallus profitable? Metallus Inc. earned $8.9 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +140.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row of profit growth. The full FY25 year was a loss of $1.2 M. That is 2.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $3.7 M. 3 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was −$1.2 M (−192.3% on the year before). ## How much revenue does Metallus make, and is it growing? Metallus Inc. reported $341 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +12.0% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 5th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown −2.5% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $1.2 B. The last four reported quarters add to $1.2 B. FY25 revenue was $1.2 B, +6.9% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +16.9% on average, against −2.5% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +16.1%, against −3.0% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Metallus keep? Metallus Inc.'s operating margin was 3.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, about the same as the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 0.0% and 15.6%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +0.0 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −0.6 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Metallus' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 221% of Metallus Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $16.0 M of operating cash against −$1.2 M of profit. After $109 M of spending on assets, free cash was −$93.0 M: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Metallus' cash go? Metallus Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $225 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 6.5% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $225 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Metallus' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Metallus Inc.'s P/E is 34.7×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −200.0% while the price moved +11.9%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved −0.4% a year; about −35.4% a year came from earnings growth and about +35.0 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Metallus business getting better or worse? Metallus Inc.'s business is getting worse. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking: profit growth is −192.3% in the latest quarter, against +86.3% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE steady at 1.2%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. ## How much does Metallus earn on its capital? Metallus Inc. earned a ROE of 0% in FY25. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 10.7 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a −0.1% net margin and 1.02× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −0.1% net margin × 1.02× asset turnover × 1.66× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −0.2% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 1.1% − 11.8% = −10.7 percentage points. The 11.8% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 1.1% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at −0.1%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Metallus have too much debt? Metallus Inc. has total debt of $14.7 M against shareholder equity of $692 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.02× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.09 in FY21 to 0.02 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Metallus shareholding pattern? 5.3% of Metallus Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 5.6 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Metallus from balance-sheet trouble? For Metallus Inc., the Z-score is 2.95. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.95 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Metallus rank in its industry? 43.4 out of 100, rank 8 of 13 in Steel, with 74% of the evidence available. Metallus Inc. scores 43.4 out of 100 against the 13 companies it is compared with in Steel, ranking 8. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 17.3 + 6.7 + 12.1 + 7.3 = 43.4. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Metallus compared with? Metallus ranks 8 of 13 Steel companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 43.4 out of 100. 1.

They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

Metallus Inc. reported revenue of $341 M and net profit of $8.9 M for the Jun 2026 quarter. Revenue rose 12.0% and profit rose 140.5% compared with a year earlier. Earnings per share were $0.21. The operating margin was 3.5%, 0.0 percentage points higher than a year earlier (as of 3 November 2026). ### What is Metallus's market cap? Metallus Inc.'s market capitalisation is $816 M at a stock price of $19.69. Market cap is the share price times the number of shares, so it changes whenever the price moves (as of 3 November 2026). ### How is Metallus performing? Metallus Inc.'s share price has been rising for 6 weeks. In its latest quarter, revenue rose 12.0% and profit rose 140.5% compared with a year earlier. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, for 1 week running (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will Metallus's stock price go up? This page does not forecast Metallus Inc.'s stock price. What it shows instead: the stock price is $19.69, and it has been rising for 6 weeks. Nobody can reliably say which way a price will move, and this site does not try (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Metallus's profit real cash? Yes, over the last 3 years, 221% of Metallus Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from operations. The latest year was lower at -1333%, so the trend is worth watching. In FY25, operating cash was $16.0 M against reported profit of −$1.2 M. Most of that cash then goes into building new capacity. These are yearly figures (as of 3 November 2026). ### Where is Metallus in its business cycle? Metallus Inc.'s FY25 operating margin was 0.0%, against a 5-year range of 0.0% to 15.6%: the low end of its own range, which is often where recoveries start. The latest quarter was 3.5%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 3 November 2026). ### What could break the Metallus story? The main question: the share price moved +11.9% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −200.0%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Metallus a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: Metallus Inc.'s share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer. The main open question: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved. Every number on this page is worked out by code from the published figures, with no forecasts and no price opinions (as of 3 November 2026). This is research, not advice. We’re not SEBI-registered.
