SÃO PAULO , March 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- GERDAU S.A. (NYSE: GGB, B3: GGBR3, GGBR4) hereby announces that the Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) at http://sec.gov and the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) at http://cvm.gov.br.

Gerdau is upgraded to 'buy' with a new price target of $3.6/share, reflecting improved external factors and conservative valuation. GGB's volatility stems from strong US operations offset by systemic Brazilian market challenges, notably Chinese steel imports and recent gross profit declines. Recent Brazilian anti-dumping duties, import quotas, and government housing initiatives are expected to bolster domestic steel demand and support GGB's 2026E outlook.
