#### Item 8.01. Other Events.
On November 12, 2025, Commercial Metals Company (the "**Company**") entered into a purchase agreement (the "**Purchase Agreement**"), with BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. as representatives of the several initial purchasers named therein, to issue and sell $1,000 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2033 and $1,000 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Notes due 2035 (together, the "**Notes**") in a private placement to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "**Securities Act**"), and to certain non-U.S. persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Purchase Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and is subject to customary closing conditions. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to indemnify the initial purchasers of the Notes against certain liabilities.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to fund the purchase price for the Company's previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of entities that own Foley Products Company, LLC (such transaction, the "**Foley Acquisition**") and transaction-related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes. The offering of the Notes is not conditioned upon, and will be consummated before, the closing of the Foley Acquisition, and the closing of the Foley Acquisition is not contingent upon the completion of the Offering. In the event that the Foley Acquisition is not completed on or prior to October 15, 2026, or if prior to such date, the securities purchase agreement with respect to the Foley Acquisition is terminated, the Company will be required to redeem all of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the initial issue price of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest from the date of issuance, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for, to but not including the special mandatory redemption date.

Additionally, on November 12, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Notes, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of the Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state or other jurisdictions' securities laws.

News Release

**Commercial Metals Company Prices Offering of $2,000 Million Senior Notes in Two Tranches**

The Offering is expected to close on or about November 26, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Notes will be CMC's senior unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of its existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. The 2033 Notes will mature on November 15, 2033 and the 2035 Notes will mature on December 15, 2035, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed.

CMC intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to fund the purchase price for the Company's previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of entities that own Foley Products Company, LLC (such transaction, the "<u>Foley Acquisition</u>") and transaction-related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.

The Offering of the Notes is not conditioned upon, and will be consummated before, the closing of the Foley Acquisition, and the closing of the Foley Acquisition is not contingent upon the completion of the Offering. In the event that the Foley Acquisition is not completed on or prior to October 15, 2026, or if prior to such date, the securities purchase agreement with respect to the Foley Acquisition is terminated, CMC will be required to redeem all of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the initial issue price of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest from the date of issuance, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for, to but not including the special mandatory redemption date.

The Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain non-U.S. persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state or other jurisdictions' securities laws.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes or any other securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offer, if at all, will be made only pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act.
