On this page of Benford's Law Stocks.com we present our study of WORTHINGTON STEEL INC. — ticker symbol WS. SEC filings have been screened by our Benford's Law software, for quarterly 10Q and annual 10K filings from 1/16/2024 to 1/8/2026 for WORTHINGTON STEEL INC. under CIK number 0001968487. For filings made in XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) format, our algorithm extracts all "tagged" numbers presented by the company; for any non-XBRL filings our algorithm uses its own interal set of rules to extract what it believes to be numbers as found throughout the filings.

89

Starting from a possible score of 100, we made the following score deductions:
 • The 5's percentage was higher than the 4's percentage, increasing the penalty multiplier.
 • However, because we observed that the company's shares outstanding count begins with the digit 5, we canceled the penalty multiplier.
 • We deducted points upon observing the 5's percentage was above the typical coverage universe range.
 • We deducted point upon observing the 5's percentage was above the company's typical historical range.
 • The 7's percentage was higher than the 6's percentage, increasing the penalty multiplier.
 • The 9's percentage was higher than the 8's percentage, increasing the penalty multiplier.
 • This is the 2nd column with percentage higher than the prior column, resulting in a penalty deduction.

While the above WS 10Q Filed 1/8/2026 is interesting in isolation, we have found that it is also useful to take a look at older WORTHINGTON STEEL INC. filings processed by our Benford's Law Stocks algorithm, to see how the company's filings "typically look" on a Benford's Law analysis. Below we repeat the 10Q Filed 1/8/2026 but instead of the chart comparing against the typical company across our coverage universe, below we show the same chart compared against the typical WS 10Q and 10K filings that we have processed historically. This is followed by similar charts for each of those historical filings.
