以下是Ferroglobe PLC (GSM)Q2 2024業績會議呼叫記錄的摘要:

Financial Performance:

金融業績:

  • Ferroglobe reported strong Q2 2024 results with total sales at $451 million, up 15% from the prior quarter, and adjusted EBITDA reaching $58 million, up from $26 million, driven by strong pricing and sales volumes.

  • Increased volume and pricing in silicon metal contributed significantly, with revenue from this segment up 22% to $204 million. Adjusted EBITDA for silicon metal was $35 million, a 115% increase over the previous quarter.

  • Despite overall revenue increase, silicon-based alloys saw a revenue decline to $105 million, down 6%, while manganese-based alloys revenue was up 48% to $98 million; both segments were affected by market conditions and pricing strategies.

  • Operating cash flow stood at $2 million, while free cash flow was consumed by $30 million primarily due to inventory buildups as operations restarted in France and additional purchases in anticipation of price increases for manganese ore.

  • Ferroglobe報告了強勁的2024Q2成果,總銷售額達到$45100萬,環比增長15%,調整後的EBITDA達到$5800萬,比上一季度的$2600萬增長,這是由於強勁的定價和銷量推動的。

  • 硅金屬的體積和價格提高明顯,爲營收帶來了重要貢獻,該業務段的營收增長了22%,達到$20400萬。硅金屬的調整EBITDA爲$3500萬,比上一季度增長了115%。

  • 總銷售額雖然增加,但基於硅的合金的營收卻下降了6%,僅爲$10500萬;而基於錳的合金的營收則增長了48%,達到$9800萬;這兩個業務段均受到市場形勢和定價策略的影響。

  • 經營現金流爲$200萬,而自由現金流則因在法國重啓業務並預期錳礦石價格上漲而採購更多存貨,從而消耗了$3000萬。

Business Progress:

業務進展:

  • Ferroglobe has achieved significant advancements in EV battery technology through its partnership with Coreshell, leading to a silicon-rich anode that significantly reduces cost, speeds up charging, and increases range.

  • The company is engaged with approximately 70 EV battery companies to develop silicon-based technologies.

  • Commissioning of a pilot plant for larger scale battery production is scheduled for Q4, with OEM tests expected in early 2025.

  • 通過與Coreshell合作,Ferroglobe在EV電池技術方面取得了重大進展,開發了富含硅的負極,能夠大幅降低成本、加快充電速度並增加行駛里程。

  • 該公司正在與大約70家EV電池公司合作開發基於硅的技術。

  • 預計於2024年第4季度投入使用的大規模電池生產試點工廠將進行原始設備製造商測試。

Opportunities:

機會:

  • Regulatory decisions on anti-dumping and countervailing duties offer Ferroglobe the potential to expand its market share significantly starting in early 2025 once supply channel inventories deplete.

  • Advances in EV battery technology and testing at OEMs provide new business avenues and potential growth in battery markets for the company.

  • 針對反傾銷和反補貼稅收政策的監管決定有望在供應渠道庫存減少後從2025年初開始使Ferroglobe擴大市場份額。

  • EV電池技術的進步和OEM的測試爲該公司提供了新的商業途徑和電池市場的潛在增長。

Risks:

風險:

  • The company anticipates weaker demand in Q4 across several market segments including aluminum, foundry, steel sectors which could impact financial performance. Additionally, idling of operations in France expected to further affect results in Q4.

  • Current economic uncertainties and market conditions are expected to keep demand for steel and other key products soft, affecting overall company performance in H2 of the year.

  • 公司預計Q4多個市場部門的需求偏弱,包括鋁、鑄造和鋼鐵行業,這可能會影響業績。此外,法國業務的停產預計還將進一步影響Q4結果。

  • 當前的經濟不確定性和市場形勢預計會使鋼鐵和其他關鍵產品的需求保持疲軟,從而影響H2的業績。
