United States Steel Corporation (“U. S. Steel”) outlined its next era of growth in its partnership with Nippon Steel. This includes significant capital investments and world‑class technology sharing, forging the future of the American steel industry.
In the next chapter with Nippon Steel, U. S. Steel is advancing a multi‑year growth plan that targets approximately USD $14 billion of U.S. growth capital. USD $11 billion will also be invested by the end of 2028. The opportunity ahead has the potential to unlock approximately USD $3 billion in value, including approximately USD $2.5 billion in incremental run-rate EBITDA unlocked through capital investments and another approximately USD $500 million identified from operational efficiencies.
With the introduction of Nippon Steel’s technological expertise to U. S. Steel’s operations, the companies have identified over 200 initiatives to drive operational efficiencies across all business segments. Both companies are focused on delivering these operational efficiencies and cost improvements to fund this next leg of growth.
The partnership is also leveraging world‑class technology sharing to enhance product quality, expand premium offerings, and accelerate time‑to‑market. With a focus on modernizing and expanding manufacturing operations, building product capabilities, and expanding R&D to serve customers with higher‑value, lower‑emission steel solutions, the plan is designed to protect and create more than 100,000 jobs nationwide in the United States, while strengthening the communities in which U. S. Steel operates.
