    • In December 2025, Commercial Metals Company amended its credit agreement to lift its revolving credit facility from US$600.0 million to US$1.00 billion, extend its maturity to December 2030, and add flexibility for up to US$250.0 million in additional revolver or term loan capacity, while also benefiting from a very large preliminary anti-dumping margin on Algerian rebar imports into the U.S.
