In short
- Thesis
- ArcelorMittal trades above the AI estimate because investors pay for its high 2026 steel margins, and only lasting European trade protection with returns from its growth projects can support this price.
- Gap
- Slow. Steel earnings move in cycles, so only several years of high European margins and project returns can show the value of the new trade measures and plants.
Company guidance: 2026 capital spending of $4.5 to $5.0 billion; Group shipments in the second half of 2026 above the first half (, Q3 2026 results (6-K))
Price history
About
ArcelorMittal S.A. (ArcelorMittal) is one of the world's largest steel and mining companies. It makes flat, long and tubular steel products in North America, Brazil and Europe, and it owns joint ventures such as AM/NS India. It mines iron ore in Canada, Liberia, Brazil and Mexico.
Its segments are North America, Brazil, Europe, Sustainable Solutions, Mining and Others. In 2025, revenues were $61.4 billion and crude steel production was 55.6 million tonnes. Sales were $16.5 billion in Q3 2026.
The company is based in Luxembourg, and its shares trade in New York, Amsterdam, Paris, Luxembourg and Spain. The shares in New York are New York Registry Shares, not American depositary receipts: one share in New York is one ordinary share. Aditya Mittal is Chief Executive Officer.
Thesis
ArcelorMittal trades above the AI estimate because investors pay for its high steel margins in 2026, but it is a cyclical steel maker whose earnings move with steel prices, energy costs and imports. EBITDA per tonne was $155 in Q3 2026, well above its historical average, with help from new European Union trade measures and new plants. These margins may not last through the cycle, and there are risks in Ukraine, in European energy costs and in large capital spending. For the price to hold, three things must be true.
The European tariff rate quota, in force from July 1, 2026, and the carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) must keep imports low and steel prices above the higher costs. The strategic projects must add about $1.8 billion of EBITDA potential as planned, with the Liberian iron ore expansion at full capacity. And the company must keep its dividends and share repurchases while net debt falls from $10.3 billion. The Q4 2026 report, expected in February 2027, with the project update and the outlook for 2027, is the next test.
Valuation
AI estimate, checked by Kevin. How it is made
Show the method
The intrinsic value for ArcelorMittal is an AI estimate from November 11, 2026. It is not an analyst's value. An AI research agent calculated it from ArcelorMittal's filings. The company reports in U.S. dollars, so the estimate needs no exchange rate.
The shares on the New York Stock Exchange are New York Registry Shares. The Form 20-F for 2025 (March 6, 2026) says that the company has no American depositary receipts and that Citibank, N.A. keeps its New York share register, so one share in New York is one ordinary share. The method is a multiple of 2027 adjusted EPS. The Q3 2026 results (6-K, November 5, 2026) give EBITDA of $2,023 million, or $155 per tonne, adjusted net income of $868 million, adjusted basic EPS of $1.15 for the quarter and $2.80 for the first nine months, 753 million weighted average shares, net debt of $10.3 billion, equity attributable to the equity holders of the parent of $54,123 million, capital spending guidance of $4.5 billion to $5.0 billion for 2026 and about $1.8 billion of EBITDA potential from strategic projects.
The Q2 2026 results (6-K, July 30, 2026) give the European Union tariff rate quota in force from July 1, 2026 and a quarterly base dividend of $0.15 per share. Adjusted EPS is after interest, so the estimate makes no debt adjustment. The 2027 EPS and the multiples are assumptions. The low case assumes lower steel prices and weaker trade protection, with 2027 adjusted EPS of $3.75, at 8 times.
It gives $30.00 per share. The base case assumes that European margins hold and the projects add EBITDA, with adjusted EPS of $5.00, at 9.5 times. It gives $47.50 per share. The high case assumes strong European prices and the full EBITDA from the projects, with adjusted EPS of $6.25, at 10.5 times.
It gives $65.63 per share. The estimate assumes weights of 25%, 50% and 25%. The weighted intrinsic value is $47.66 per share. As a check, the base case is about 0.66 times equity of $71.88 per share on 753 million shares.
ArcelorMittal has large plants, its own iron ore mines and joint ventures in growing markets such as India. But steel is a commodity, many rivals make similar products, and profits depend on prices and on trade measures that can change. The estimate does not expect an advantage that lasts 10 years or more.

Risks
- Steel and iron ore prices move in cycles. A fall in prices or demand would lower EBITDA quickly, as in past downturns.
- Results in Europe depend on trade measures such as the tariff rate quota and the CBAM. Weaker measures or more imports of steel-intensive products would lower prices and plant use.
- Higher energy and carbon costs in Europe lowered European results in Q3 2026, before steel prices adjusted.
- ArcelorMittal idled its Ukrainian operations after missile strikes and recorded impairment and exceptional charges of $1,145 million and a deferred tax charge of $170 million in Q3 2026. War and politics also affect other countries where it operates.
- Capital spending is $4.5 billion to $5.0 billion in 2026, including electric arc furnaces in Spain and France. Delays or higher costs would lower returns.
