ArcelorMittal South Africa publishes 2025 annual report
  • ArcelorMittal South Africa annual report for 2025 detailed a major restructuring as it moved to wind down most Longs operations into care and maintenance from October 2025.
  • IDC support of ZAR 2.06 billion extended Longs operations to end-September, but additional funding to keep the business running was not secured.
  • Management shifted focus toward Flats operations, citing footprint optimization as Longs closure created scope to consolidate investment and market development in flat steel.
  • Operations faced continued pressure from weak domestic demand, high import penetration, high input costs, logistics constraints, and elevated electricity tariffs.
  • Report flagged liquidity as top strategic risk, with balance sheet strain persisting as borrowings increased to fund ongoing operations.
