The adjusted EBITDA reported an improvement from $3 million in the prior quarter to $9 million in Q3 this fiscal. The improvement was mainly on account of higher nonferrous and ferrous sales volumes, benefits from cost reduction and productivity improvements, and higher insurance recoveries, which were partially offset by lower ferrous selling prices and compressed metal spreads.

Radius Recycling reported adjusted loss per share from continuing operations of $(0.59) in the third quarter compared to an adjusted loss per share of $(1.04) in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
