Inland Steel reports 1984 loss narrows from 1983
Inland Steel Co reports a 1984 fourth quarter loss of 28.3 million dollars, an improvement from 45.9 million in the prior year. Full year deficit totals 41.4 million, driven by record 1984 steel imports totaling 26 million tons and 26 percent of the domestic market. Chairman Frank W. Luerssen cites imports and restrained demand as key factors. In 1984 Inland earned 31.6 million from continuing operations, vs a 1983 operating loss of 55.4 million before special charges.
