The Positives
Due to its consistent above average ROIC, the company has traded at a premium to the rest of the industry.
“NUE is the North American market leader in nearly every long steel product and many fabricated products, and also the third largest producer of sheet steel,” the analyst mentioned.
Hacking also pointed out that Nucor is the only steel producer in North America with an investment grade rating of (A-), as well as sufficient cash and liquidity to continue to invest in improving its earnings power, which is the company’s top capital allocation priority.

ROIC
However, since ROIC, the company’s ROIC gas averaged only 5.3 percent, driven by declining operating margins and meaningful investments in the raw material segment that are yet to pay off.
“We expect some improvement in the Raw Materials segment but it will likely still under earing its cost of capital over the next several years,” Hacking stated.
Dividend
In addition, Nucor has a solid history of growing dividends, which has supported the shares. However, with payout ratios of more than 80 percent, the analyst believes there is little room for any significant increases in the medium term.
