Steel Dynamics, Inc. Third Quarter 2009 Earnings Conference Call

October 29, 2009

*This file contains the complete recording of the call from start to finish. Due to technical difficulties, the previous release was truncated.*

On Monday, October 19, 2009, Steel Dynamics hosted a conference call in which Steel Dynamics management announced net income of $69 million for the third quarter of 2009, or $0.30 per diluted share. The quarter’s earnings compared to a net loss of $16 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2009 and net income of $193 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2008. The principal drivers as to why third quarter earnings exceeded our September guidance were stronger-than-anticipated cost compression, resulting from higher production and shipping volumes at the Flat Roll Division, and better than expected performance in metals recycling. You are invited to listen to the audio broadcast of this conference call. For further information, visit www.steeldynamics.com.
