The falling global steel demand resulted in weak market conditions for recycled metals. The dip in average net selling prices for recycled metals coupled with tighter supply flows led to notable compression in metal spread and lower sales volume. On the other hand, the company recognized certain insurance recoveries during the quarter.

Tamara Lundgren, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Radius Recycling commented that the impact of weaker demand fundamentals led to subdued market conditions for recycled metals. The increased focus on decarbonization and transition to low-carbon technologies are likely to contribute to positive long-term structural demand for recycled metals, Lundgren added.
