    Overview

    The US fabricated metal product manufacturing industry includes about 55,000 companies with about $295 billion in combined annual revenue. Major companies in specialty segments include Ball Corporation, Flowserve, Mueller Industries, Snap-On, and The Timken Company. Because of the special manufacturing processes involved for individual parts, most companies make a limited range of products. The industry as a whole is fragmented: the largest 50 companies account for about 20 percent of revenue. But concentration can be high in industry segments such as boiler, cutlery, metal can, and spring manufacturing.

        NAICS: 423930

         

        Sample Questions & Answers

        If a steel recycler, how does the company mitigate fluctuations in domestic demand for scrap steel?

        Demand for scrap steel comes mainly from the US steel industry, which in turn depends heavily on the auto, machinery, and construction industries. The shift of more auto production to foreign plants will negatively affect scrap metal demand long-term.

         

        How effectively does the company hedge against price changes?

        Scrap prices can change quickly, making revenues unpredictable both monthly and yearly. The industry is vulnerable to fluctuations in both foreign and domestic markets. Excess world supply of steel and scrap has caused market disruptions in the US.

          Sample Questions & Answers

          How does the company compensate for cyclical changes in demand?

          How does the company protect itself against steel price changes?

          Because distributors may hold substantial inventories, they're exposed to changes in the price of steel products. Although most distributors use the "last in first out" (LIFO) method of inventory accounting, in which the most recently acquired items...
