Cleveland Cliffs’ follows a cost-based & value-based pricing strategy and the price of its products is significantly influenced by the overall price fluctuations of steel and iron ore in the market and the price of the products their customers sell. The prices are also affected by various regulatory changes. To avoid such fluctuations, the company enters into annual fixed-price agreements for its raw materials. It also enters into variable price contracts with customers which allows it to adjust selling prices as per the cost of raw materials.
The company along with other domestic US steel producers faces a lot of competition from foreign steel producers, who are able to sell their products at significantly lower prices.
