Rode cijfers voor Outokumpu

FONDS KOERS VERSCHIL VERSCHIL % BEURS
Outokumpu Oyj
2,438 0,00 0,00 % Helsinki Stock Exchange

(ABM FN-Dow Jones) Outokumpu heeft in het tweede kwartaal de omzet onder druk zien staan en eindigde daardoor in de rode cijfers. Dit maakte de Finse fabrikant van roestvast staal vrijdag bekend.

De omzet daalde in het tweede kwartaal op jaarbasis met 16,5 procent van 1,7 miljard naar 1,4 miljard euro. De levering van roestvast staal lag afgelopen kwartaal 10 procent lager dan een jaar eerder. De prijzen stonden daarbij onder druk. Deels werd dit gecompenseerd door lagere inkoop- en vaste kosten. In het eerste kwartaal van dit jaar lag de omzet nog op 1,6 miljard euro.

De EBITDA halveerde grofweg van 91 miljoen naar 45 miljoen euro.

Netto leed Outokumpu een verlies van 37 miljoen euro, terwijl er in het tweede kwartaal van 2019 nog een winst werd gerealiseerd van 6 miljoen euro.

Vanwege de onzekerheden in de markt door de corona-uitbraak, gaf Outokumpu geen outlook voor het derde kwartaal af, maar meldde het slechts dat de leveringen 10 procent lager zullen liggen dan in het tweede kwartaal.

Heel dit jaar denkt de fabrikant nog last te hebben van het virus. Daarbij lijdt de Europese roestvast staal sector onder prijsdruk en de import van goedkoop staal, aldus Outokumpu.

Outokumpu Second Quarter Adjusted EBITDA Declines

Outokumpu’s sales decreased to EUR 1,420 million in the second quarter of 2020 (Q1/20: EUR 1,615 million) due to weaker global stainless steel demand. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to EUR 45 million (Q1/20: EUR 106 million). Volumes were lower in all business areas and the total stainless steel deliveries declined by 11% compared to the previous quarter. Raw material efficiency was weaker compared to the first quarter, but one-off items supported profitability in the second quarter. Raw material-related inventory and metal derivative losses decreased by EUR 6 million compared to the first quarter.

During the first half of 2020, Outokumpu’s sales decreased to EUR 3,035 million (EUR 3,415 million) while adjusted EBITDA increased to EUR 151 million (EUR 145 million). Deliveries in the first half of 2020 declined by 8% compared to the same period last year and realized prices were lower in both Europe and the Americas. Higher nickel price and positive raw material impacts supported profitability while the lower ferrochrome benchmark price had a negative impact on result compared to the first half of 2019. Raw material-related inventory and metal derivative losses were EUR 38 million (losses of EUR 26 million). Other operations and intra-group items’ adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR -13 million (EUR -10 million).

Outokumpu Selects Powder Automatization Plant from SMS Group for 3D Metal Printing

Outokumpu has selected SMS group to supply an atomization plant for the production of high-quality stainless steel powder used in additive manufacturing. This is the first ever facility SMS group is going to supply under a Subscription contract. While this agreement is new territory for both companies, it will pave the way for a long-term cooperation between the two partners. Subscription is a business model under which SMS group will remain the owner of the powder atomization plant, while Outokumpu, as operator of the plant, will pay SMS group pro rata of the quantity of stainless steel powder produced. The atomization plant, scheduled to become operational in early 2022, will be designed for an annual production of up to 330 tons of stainless steel powder.

SMS group’s scope of supply will comprise the powder atomization plant complete with the grading equipment, spare parts service over the duration of the contract, and digital solutions. The powder atomization plant, which SMS is going to supply, includes the induction melter, the atomizer, two cyclones and filter elements. It will be designed for the complete process to take place in an inert atmosphere. This enables temperature measurements, sample taking and material feeding to be performed without causing any atmospheric variations. The atomizing nozzle is arranged below the distributor, which contains the molten metal. The metal runs through the nozzle, undergoing atomization in the atomization tower by means of inert gas. From there the resulting powder is conveyed, still under inert conditions, to the cyclone unit, separated from the inert gas and collected in containers. Then the metal powder, in its finished condition, is screened and graded.

The atomization plant will be designed to atomize powders of stainless steels, maraging steels, special steels, superalloys, nickel-based alloys, cobalt-chromium alloys and alloys on copper basis, among others.

As feed stock, lumpy material (such as metal scrap, virgin metal and master alloys) or non-specified powder (in fine and coarse fractions) can be used.

SMS digital, a company of SMS group, is going to supply the Smart Alarm system, which assures quick and straight-forward responses to alarms triggered in production plants. Thanks to intelligent priority scheduling and the direct linking of solution messages, the system supports the operator in increasing plant availability and enhancing the understanding of how the system works by sending out automated notifications.

Outokumpu Celebrates 90 Years of Duplex Stainless Steel

Outokumpu is celebrating 90 years since duplex stainless steel made its debut on the world market. The global leader in stainless steel is using the opportunity to highlight the growing role of duplex grades in supporting sustainability. This is made possible by their superior corrosion resistance and high strength. Thanks to this combination of properties, engineers can create lightweight components and structures that provide a long life and require minimum maintenance – delivering excellent value for money and minimizing use of raw materials. As the inventor of duplex stainless steel, Outokumpu is committed to carry this legacy forward.

The first duplex grades were introduced by Outokumpu’s Avesta steelworks in September 1930 as a breakthrough that combined the two most common types of stainless steel, austenitic and ferritic. This enabled metallurgists to create a new material that offered the best properties of both. Since then, a whole family of duplex grades has been developed for specific industrial applications. For example, we have launched a new formable duplex grade to increase strength and efficiency of complex mechanical components such as heat exchanger plates.

Duplex grades have been used widely over the last nine decades in chemical processing, oil and gas, pulp and paper, and food and beverage industries. Additionally, today’s requirements for sustainable solutions make duplex stainless steel a long-lasting alternative to traditional painted or coated carbon steel for bridges and infrastructure.

21 October, Today is Steel Safety Day

21 October is Steel Safety Day, a day for worldsteel and its member companies to pause and dedicate their attention to the industry’s most important priority, the safety and health of its workers. Normally taking place on 28 April, aligned with the International Labour Organization’s World Day for Safety and Health at Work, but this year postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Steel Safety Day reinforces awareness of the most common causes of serious safety incidents in the steel industry and contributes to creating a safer working environment worldwide. Each Steel Safety Day highlights a particular safety incident cause and special attention is given to raising awareness of how to prevent associated risks. This year, for the second consecutive year, Steel Safety Day focuses on process safety incidents.

In a normal year, members are encouraged to conduct a safety audit across their sites that focus on the year’s theme. Last year, 463,500 people from 820 sites worldwide took part in the audit. Nearly 976,000 employees and contractors work at sites involved in the audit. The audits of course require a heavy presence on the shop floor, which in 2020 would in itself clearly pose safety risks. Recognising that everyone will have to be flexible in their approach this year, we are asking all our members to do what they feel they can to review their process safety approaches.

Although it is quite right that managing COVID-19 be taken into account, the steel industry cannot and will not forget that the 'conventional' safety and health risks are still there. As such, today worldsteel recognises excellence in seven of its member companies for delivering demonstrable improvements in safety and health.

The recognised companies this year are:

For safety culture and leadership
Emirates Steel, United Arab Emirates – AMAN Safety Culture Transformation
POSCO, South Korea – The Safety Golden Bell Challenge
Tenaris, worldwide – Communication Routines

For occupational safety management
Outokumpu, Mexico – Hands Are Not Tools
Gerdau, North America – Red Zones

For occupational health management
Qatar Steel, Qatar – Heat Stress Programme

For process safety management
Tata Steel Ltd., India – Digitalisation of Process Safety Performance Indicators

Outokumpu kondigt reorganisatie aan

FONDS KOERS VERSCHIL VERSCHIL % BEURS
Outokumpu Oyj
2,303 0,035 1,54 % Helsinki Stock Exchange

(ABM FN-Dow Jones) Outokumpu heeft een reorganisatie aangekondigd en schrapt het dividend. Dit bleek donderdag uit berichtgeving van de Finse fabrikant van roestvast staal.

Volgens Outokumpu is het van cruciaal belang om de vaste kosten terug te dringen, vanwege de uitdagende marktsituatie met een aanhoudend hoge importdruk in Europa, terwijl de coronapandemie de mondiale economie raakt.

Personeelskosten zijn een belangrijk onderdeel van de vaste lasten. De reorganisatie gaat vermoedelijk 1.000 banen kosten, ongeveer 10 procent van het werknemersbestand.

Deze personele reductie zal volgens Outokumpu een jaarlijkse kostenbesparing opleveren van ongeveer 70 miljoen euro. De kosten die met het plan gepaard gaan, schat de fabrikant op 75 tot 80 miljoen euro.

Gezien de uitdagende omstandigheden is het versterken van de financiële positie de hoogste prioriteit van Outokumpu. Dit betekent dat over 2019 geen dividend zal worden uitgekeerd.

Het aandeel steeg in Helsinki 2,5 procent.

Outokumpu Completes Employee Negotiation Processes

Outokumpu has completed its employee negotiation processes which were started in selected operating countries in November 2020 with the aim to create cost savings by restructuring and reducing total employee headcount by up to approximately 1,000. As a result of the negotiations, Outokumpu is reducing the employee headcount by 250 in Finland, 230 in Germany and 170 in Sweden. Additionally, further personnel reductions are in progress in the company’s European and Americas based operations, with reduction of approximately 250 employees already being implemented. The total targeted employee headcount reduction of 1,000 will be completed in full, mostly by the end of 2021. Outokumpu targets to have a headcount of below 9,000 during 2022.

Outokumpu said “Due to the challenging market situation with continuing high import pressure in Europe and the COVID-19 pandemic impacting the global economy, it is crucial to ensure the company’s cost competitiveness by reducing fixed costs, of which personnel expenses are significant part.”

The reductions are part of Outokumpu’s actions for reaching the financial targets of the first phase of its strategy: EUR 200 million EBITDA run-rate improvements and net debt to EBITDA of below 3.0x by the end of 2022. The personnel reductions are expected to generate total annual savings of approximately EUR 70 million, thereof EUR 60 million direct personnel cost. The costs of the restructuring are EUR 75-80 million. Such costs are adjusted for and EUR 11 million were booked in Q3/2020, approximately EUR 55 million are to be booked in Q4/2020 and approximately EUR 10 million in 2021, whereas cash out is expected predominantly during 2021.

Outokumpu Navigated Successfully Through Pandemic in 2020

Outokumpu President & CEO Mr Heikki Malinen said “Throughout 2020 Outokumpu has continued with rigorous measures to mitigate the negative impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on our employees, operations, and business. Our actions have been effective, and we concluded the year without any pandemic-related production losses. While we were able to return our financial performance in the year shaped by COVID-19 back to near 2019 levels, the financial performance needs further strengthening. Hence, we will continue to execute the announced strategic measures to improve our results.”

In 2020, Outokumpu’s sales decreased to EUR 5,639 million (EUR 6,403 million) and adjusted EBITDA to EUR 250 million (EUR 263 million). Stainless steel deliveries declined by 3% compared to the previous year as a result of weaker demand. Prices were significantly lower in Europe but declined also in Americas. Various cost-saving measures supported profitability and both input costs as well as fixed costs were at a lower level compared to the previous year. Raw material-related inventory and metal derivative losses amounted to EUR 16 million in 2020 compared to the losses of EUR 64 million in 2019. Other operations and intra-group items’ adjusted EBITDA amounted to EUR -29 million (EUR -15 million). In 2020, Outokumpu recognized EUR 59 million restructuring costs related to personnel measures, reported as adjustments to EBITDA. Most of these costs are provisions where the cash impact will take place mainly in 2021. The adjustments to EBITDA in 2019 included restructuring provisions of EUR 53 million and a gain on a real estate sale of EUR 70 million.

Outlook for Q1 2021 - The stainless steel market has begun to recover after the global downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The demand for stainless steel is strengthening and both business areas Europe and Americas are expected to see a seasonal increase in volumes. Consequently, Outokumpu expects its stainless steel deliveries for the whole Group to increase in the first quarter by 10-20% compared to the fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2021 is expected to be higher compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.
