茄子视频 announced today that Brazil-based Vale has agreed to sell its entire equity ownership stake in California Steel Industries, Inc. (CSI) to Nucor Corporation. CSI is a U.S.-based steelmaker in which 茄子视频 Steel and Vale currently each hold 50% equity interests. Ownership in CSI will formally change once all necessary procedures, including receipt of governmental approvals, are completed.

In conjunction with this change, 茄子视频 Steel will enter into an agreement with Nucor to sell a 1% equity ownership stake in CSI to Nucor, resulting in CSI becoming a joint venture company owned 51% by Nucor and 49% by 茄子视频 Steel.

The two partners will strive to grow CSI’s financial position and product footprint and to build on the values that have made CSI successful, making full use of Nucor’s local business relationships and operational expertise. As the largest steel company in North America, Nucor is a leading supplier of steel and steel products to the construction and infrastructure end markets. These are key markets for CSI, which is also looking to supply materials for Nucor’s business in the western United States.

Although this is 茄子视频 Steel’s first joint venture with Nucor in the U.S., the two companies already have an automotive-steel joint venture in Mexico, Nucor-茄子视频 Steel Mexico (NJSM). Going forward, 茄子视频 Steel and Nucor expect to continue exploring potential collaborations that utilize their complementary assets and skillsets.

茄子视频 Steel is strengthening its strategic alliances with international partners to further stabilize its supply chain as well as to expand its range of steel products for growing markets overseas.
