NLMK Group operating highlights
12M 2016 overview:
· Crude steel output: record high output of 16.64 m t (+4% yoy): growth across all NLMK Group sites on the back of the increase in equipment productivity (see Appendix 1).
· Sales: 15.89 m t, stable yoy.
· Sales structure: finished rolled product sales increased by 4% yoy to 10.17 m t, driven by a 5% yoy increase in long product sales (mainly exports) and a 4% increase in flat steel deliveries (predominantly in home markets in Russia, Europe, and the USA). Finished products accounted for 64% (+2 p.p. yoy).
· Sales of semi-finished products eased by 5% yoy to 5.71 m t, due to the decrease in pig iron sales (-44% yoy) and the increase in the volume of slabs rolled into finished products by NLMK Group facilities. Slab deliveries to Group facilities and associated companies grew by 3% yoy to 3.96 m t, or 60% of total Novolipetsk slab sales (+4 p.p. yoy).
· Sales in home markets climbed by 1% yoy to 10.46 m t, home sales accounting for 66%. Total sales in Russia eased by 3% yoy to 5.94 m t due to the decline in demand for long products in Russia. Sales of NLMK's international divisions (NLMK Europe and NLMK USA) in the European and US markets increased by 6% yoy to 4.44 m t;
· Sales in NLMK Group's export markets grew to 5.46 m t (+1% yoy), accounting for 34% of NLMK Group's total sales (with NBH). Key growth drivers included the increase in export long product sales.
· Price trends: Steel product prices in the global markets were recovering throughout the year on the back of the growth in prices for raw materials; a better-than-anticipated demand trend on China; and intensified trade restrictions in developed markets (including in Europe and the USA). Steel product prices in the Russian market in 2016 grew by 2-7% (in US$). Average prices in the US grew by 15-20% yoy, and to 10% in the European market. Export market prices (FOB Black Sea) saw a variety of trends: from an insignificant decrease in billet prices (-2% yoy) to a 5-10% growth in slab and flat product prices.
4Q 2016 overview:
· Crude steel output: an 8% yoy increase in output to 4.22 m t (+3% qoq) across all sites of NLMK Group and associated companies, driven by improved equipment productivity; and strong demand for products, including billet exports. The drop in steel output at NLMK Russia Long Division sites vs. 3Q 2016 (-6% qoq) is associated with the seasonal decrease in demand for long products in Russia.
· Sales: 3.60 m t; a 4% drop yoy due to the decrease in semi-finished product sales (-17% yoy). The 15% qoq drop vs. 3Q 2016 is associated with the seasonal decrease in demand in the Russian market; and the high base effect in 3Q when finished product sales contracted in previous periods were accounted for.
· Sales structure: finished product sales increased by 6% yoy to 2.25 m t, due mainly to the 43% yoy growth in long steel sales. Finished products accounted for 62% (+6 p.p. yoy). The 19% decrease in finished product sales and a 4 p.p. decrease in their share vs. Q3 2016 was associated with the seasonal contraction in demand in Russia.
· Sales in home markets: climbed by 3% yoy to 2.42 m t, home sales accounting for 67% (+4 p.p. yoy). Sales in Russia eased by 3% yoy to 1.36 m due to the seasonal decline in demand. Sales of NLMK's international divisions in their home European and US markets increased by 8% yoy to 0.50 m t; NBH sales to the EU market gained 18% yoy to 0.51 m t. The 12% qoq drop in Group sales in its home markets was associated with the seasonal changes in demand in the Russian market.
· Sales in NLMK Group's export markets decreased by 12% yoy to 1.21 m t (-16% qoq), accounting for 33% of NLMK Group's total sales with NBH (-4 p.p. yoy and -1 p.p. qoq). Key factors behind the yoy decline included the increase in home flat steel sales, predominantly by NLMK's international companies. Key export destinations included European countries, North America and the Middle East.
· Price trends: The increase in raw material prices offset the seasonal fall in finished product prices, resulting in a 1-5% qoq (+15-40% yoy) increase in steel prices in Russia. Steel prices in the European market continued to grow by 3-14% qoq (30-45% yoy) following a seasonal drop in demand during the summer months. The US market saw the abnormally high premium to Chinese prices recede, resulting in a 5-8% qoq fall (vs. 35-45% growth yoy) in average prices. Prices throughout the quarter grew by 12-20% on the back of the increase in raw material prices. Export market prices (FOB Black Sea) climbed by 4-20% qoq (+30-60% yoy).
