Cleveland-Cliffs Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) reported fourth-quarter financial results Monday after the bell. Here&#8217;s a look at the key details<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/b43926808/cleveland-cliffs-reports-full-year-and-fourth-quarter-2024-results"> from the report</a>.
<ul>
<li>Q4 Revenue:&nbsp;$4.33 billion, versus&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimates</a>&nbsp;of $4.43 billion</li>
<li>Q4 EPS:&nbsp;Loss of 68 cents, versus estimates for a loss of 61 cents</li>
</ul>
Fourth-quarter steelmaking revenue&nbsp;included approximately&nbsp;$1.2 billion of sales to the infrastructure and manufacturing market, $1.2 billion of sales to direct automotive customers, $1.2 billion of sales to the distributors and converters market and&nbsp;$623 million of sales to steel producers.
Steel product sales totaled 3.8 million net tons&nbsp;in the fourth quarter, consisting of&nbsp;40%&nbsp;hot-rolled,&nbsp;26%&nbsp;coated,&nbsp;16%&nbsp;cold-rolled,&nbsp;5%&nbsp;plate,&nbsp;3%&nbsp;stainless and electrical and&nbsp;10%&nbsp;other, including slabs and rail.
&#8220;Our results in 2024 were a consequence of the worst steel demand environment since 2010 (ex-COVID). Cleveland-Cliffs is an American steel company, designed to supply high-end manufacturers producing things in the United States. That said, for the first time, the number of cars sold in the United States that were produced abroad and imported into the United States surpassed the number of cars sold that were produced domestically. With this decline in domestic automotive production, and too much imported steel from abroad that drove unsustainably low steel prices, Cliffs was deeply impacted,&#8221; said&nbsp;Lourenco Goncalves, chairman, president and CEO of Cleveland-Cliffs.
&#8220;This impact was particularly evident in the&nbsp;fourth quarter, which we expect to be the trough going forward. Our cash use in the&nbsp;fourth quarter, due largely to inventory build, has set us up nicely for the rebound we are seeing so far in 2025.&#8221;
Outlook: Cleveland-Cliffs expects full-year 2025 steel unit cost reductions of approximately $40 per net ton. The company anticipates full-year capital expenditures of approximately $700 million. 
Cleveland-Cliffs executives will further discuss the quarter on a conference call scheduled for 8:30 a.m. ET Tuesday morning. 
CLF Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/clf">Cleveland-Cliffs shares</a> were down 2.96% after hours, trading at $10.82 at the time of publication Monday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Bitcoin miner Riot Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>) reported its fourth-quarter results after Monday's closing bell. Here's a look at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43926811/riot-platforms-reports-full-year-2024-financial-results-current-operational-and-financial-highligh">details from the report. </a>
The Details: Riot Platforms reported fiscal 2024 revenue of $376.7 million, which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $372.34 million.
For fiscal 2024: 
<ul>
<li>Total revenue of $376.7 million, as compared to $280.7 million for 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a $132 million increase in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining revenue.</li>
<li>Produced 4,828 Bitcoin as compared to 6,626 during the same 12-month period in 2023.</li>
<li>The average cost to mine Bitcoin, excluding depreciation, was $32,216 in 2024, as compared to $3,831 per Bitcoin in 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a 53% decrease in power credits received in FY 2024 relative to power credits received in FY 2023, the block subsidy &#8220;halving&#8221; event, which occurred in April 2024, and a 67% increase in the average global network hash rate as compared to the same period in 2023.</li>
<li>Bitcoin mining revenue of $321 million for the year, as compared to $189.0 million for the same 12-month period in 2023, primarily driven by higher average Bitcoin prices and an increase in operational hash rate, partially offset by an increase in network difficulty and the block subsidy &#8216;halving&#8217; event.</li>
<li>Engineering revenue of $38.5 million for the year, as compared to $64.3 million for the same 12-month period in 2023.</li>
<li>Held 17,722 unencumbered Bitcoin, equating to approximately $1.65 billion based on a market price for one Bitcoin on Dec.31, 2024, of $93,354. </li>
</ul>

&#8220;Riot had a remarkable year in 2024, generating record revenue of&nbsp;$376.7 million&nbsp;and net income of&nbsp;$109.4 million,&#8221; said Jason Les, CEO of Riot. 
&#8220;These results are particularly noteworthy in the context of the&nbsp;Bitcoin&nbsp;network&#8217;s &#8216;halving&#8217; in April of 2024, and an increase in global hash rate of 67% over the course of the year. Riot also generated record adjusted EBITDA of&nbsp;$463.2 million&nbsp;in 2024, demonstrating the value of our&nbsp;Bitcoin&nbsp;treasury policy of retaining&nbsp;Bitcoin&nbsp;production rather than selling,&#8221; Les added. 
RIOT Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, Riot Platforms shares are up 3.50% after-hours at $10.34 Monday.
