(NYSE: WS) — research page\n\nAs of 2026-11-08 · us-cm-kg · record version 1\n\n## Identity and listing\n\nWorthington Steel, Inc. is listed on the NYSE under the ticker WS, with ISIN US9821041012 and LEI 2549009ZUUWL3QLK6G24. Its security type is Corporate, its sector is 3310 Steel Works, Blast Furnaces & Rolling & Finishing Mills, and its jurisdiction is United States — Ohio. Its segment is not on the record. Its status is listed, not halted.\n\n## The disclosure read\n\nThe record holds 85 filings in the twelve months to 2026-11-08, across 43 filing days. The median gap between filing days is 5.0 days. The latest filing is dated 2026-10-28, a directors_dealings filing, and is 11 days before the record date. The NYSE median gap is 6.0 days, with a median of 64.0 filings and a median latency of 4.0 days. The sector median gap is 5 days, with a median of 77 filings and a median latency of 9 days.\n\n## Auditor\n\nThe auditor is not on the record, because the latest annual report cover carries no dei:AuditorName tag. The auditor's location is not on the record. The record holds no auditor changes.\n\n## Events and halts\n\nThe record holds no listing, delisting or name change events. The domicile change is not on the record, as EDGAR states no dated change of state of incorporation on a filing line. The segment move is not on the record, as the exchanges' tier transfers are not EDGAR filings. The issuer is listed, not halted.\n\n## Orderability\n\nThe outcome is not determinable, because the chapter's orderability section carries no client categories and so the outcome cannot name its client category. The rule version is acm-68000/us/reasonable-basis-suitability-finra-rule-2111/r1, and the chapter is as of 2026-11-04.\n\n## Coverage\n\nThe issuer's own investor-relations page names four research houses: KeyBanc, John Tumazos Very Independent Research, LLC, Seaport Research Partners, and Very Independent Research, LLC.\n\n## Open research\n\nNo openly published research notes were found on the record.\n\n## Licensed\n\nLicensed research: none loaded. A licensed row is served only to an agent whose firm holds that licence (licensor, entitlement). No licensed row is loaded.\n\n## As-of depth\n\nThe sealed years that hold the issuer are 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. The earliest sealed date of the market is 2021-01-04. The live record began on 2026-09-12.\n\n## Sources\n\n9 source pages are named on this page; every value above carries its own source page and read date in the numbers.\n\n- https://www.sec.gov/files/company_tickers_exchange.json (identity.exchange)\n- https://www.sec.gov/data-research/sec-markets-data/fails-deliver-data (identity.isin)\n- https://data.sec.gov/submissions/CIK0001968487.json (identity.jurisdiction)\n- https://mapping.gleif.org/api/v2/isin-lei/latest/download (identity.lei)\n- https://mcp.us-cm-kg.ai/events/NYSE/WS (the disclosure lines)\n- https://www.nasdaqtrader.com/rss.aspx?feed=tradehalts (the halt flag)\n- https://mcp.us-cm-kg.ai/book/aio.json (the orderability chapter)\n- https://ir.worthingtonsteel.com/stock-info/analyst-coverage/default.aspx (coverage)\n- https://mcp.us-cm-kg.ai/record/NYSE/WS (the record)\n",
