Results and Annual Report for 2015

Results and Annual Report for 2015

 

CEO STATEMENT

 

The 2015 results were significantly affected by the sharp devaluation of the Kazakhstan Tenge (KZT) against our reporting currency between August 2015 and January 2016. The relative strength of the KZT against the rouble until August forced local producers to lower their selling prices to fence off imports into Kazakhstan. As a result, our sales volume in tonnes increased only by 2% while the price in KZT decreased by 8%. After September imports slowed down significantly, but so did the economy as well as the cement consumption.

 

In 2015 we produced exclusively from the dry lines and, as a consequence, our cost of production was lowered more than our selling price, thereby increasing our gross margin. Steppe Cement operated Line 5 at 85% of its current capacity (1.1 million tonnes) and Line 6 at 87% of capacity (0.8 million tonnes). With small capital investments taking place in 2016 and 2017, we expect to increase the capacity to 1.2 million tonnes in Line 5 and 1.0 million tonnes in Line 6.

 

Steppe Cement was able to hedge some of the impact of the devaluation as it maintained a healthy cash balance in USD during the year and devoted most of its cash flow to repay term loan principal (USD13.2 million) and interest. Besides, the short-term credit lines available were increased to KZT3.8 billion as at end of the year.

 

Shareholders' funds reduced from USD117.7 million to USD56.7 million over the year due to the combined effect of a USD3.4 million loss for the year and a USD57.6 million charge against asset carrying values arising from the substantial devaluation of the KZT to the USD over the course of the year (from 182 to 339). However as most of the assets required to build a new cement factory are denominated in USD, the replacement cost for the cement plant would be relatively unchanged in USD terms.

In 2015 Steppe Cement posted a net loss of USD3.4 million due to the foreign exchange loss of USD16.4 million. Steppe Cement's EBITDA increased to USD22.7 million from USD17.4 million in 2014 with a lower production cost amidst stable volumes, lower pricing and despite the KZT devaluation. The EBITDA calculated in 2015 includes the write back of USD1.9 million charged two years before as electricity expense and it has been reinstated in 2015 as the time for appeal of the court decision has expired.

 

The market volume increased by 14% in 2015 but we expect no growth in 2016

 

The Kazakh cement market in 2015 was 9.7 million tonnes, an increase of 14% compared to 8.5 million tonnes in 2014. The increase in market size was taken up by imports growing at 30%, Heidelberg, Standard Cement and Vicat. The local producers' market share decreased slightly to 86% from 87% in 2014.

 

Our expectations are that overall market demand in 2016 will be stable or decrease slightly. The demand depends upon the government investment plans and macroeconomic situation. The indication in the first months of 2016 is that, despite the drop in the oil price, the government remains committed to a strong infrastructure plan and the outlook of the construction industry in Kazakhstan remains positive, driven by the Expo 2017 and road building programs.

 

After the sharp devaluation of KZT, imports have plummeted by 75% while exports from Kazakhstan increased. Therefore in 2016 the local cement factories should maintain at least similar volumes to 2015. Steppe Cement had a market share of 17% in 2015 compared to 19% in 2014. We expect to regain our market share in 2016 in line with higher capacity utilization.

 

Steppe Cement's average cement selling prices decreased by 8% in KZT and by 21% in USD to USD56.9 per tonne delivered (equivalent to USD48.4 per tonne ex-factory).

 

Line 5 produced 0.94 million tonnes of cement while Line 6 produced 0.70 million tonnes. The combined production of both dry lines was increased by 45% from 1.13 million tonnes in 2014 to 1.64 million in 2015 resulting in a significant reduction in production costs per tonne.

 

Limited capital investment in 2015

 

During 2015 capital investment was limited to USD2 million from USD21.8 million in 2014. In the second quarter we negotiated a capital investment credit facility of KZT1.69 billion at 6% and repayable over 10 years. The facility was used mostly in the first four months of 2016 to improve the reliability of the milling department and in logistics i.e. silos, loading areas, bagging plant and the terminal in Astana.

 

Significant cost reduction in dry lines

Average cash production costs in the dry lines was reduced to USD30/tonne from USD38/tonne in 2014. Measured in KZT, production cost per tonne decreased by 8% despite inflation declared of 13.6% in 2015. We expect to contain cost increases in 2016.

 

Selling expenses, reflecting mostly cement delivery costs, were reduced to USD8/tonne from USD12/tonne in 2014. This is due to increasing deliveries to Astana and nearby construction sites, savings on wagon rental and the devaluation.

 

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expenses decreased by 34% to USD8 million from USD12.2 million in 2014 due mostly to management efforts and the effect of devaluation.

 

The labour count stood at 785 on 31 March 2016 compared with 926 on 31 March 2015. Of those 82 are in administration, 177 in the quarry and transportation departments and the balance in production. We will continue to optimize the labor count until the end of 2017.

 

Dry lines' improved operating performance

 

In 2015 Line 5 contributed 57% of sales and Line 6 the balance. In 2016 it is expected that Line 5 will contribute 59% and its production increase by at least 7%. Both lines should be operating at 90% capacity. Line 5's further target is to be able to produce 1.2 million tonnes of cement by 2017 and Line 6 1.0 million tonnes.

 

Financial position: Strong debt reduction and compliance with ratios

 

During the year we decreased our non-current portion of borrowings significantly from USD30.4 million to USD14.9 million. This comprised the repayment of USD13.2 million in principal to VTB Bank, the reduction in the value of the bond (denominated in KZT) from USD7.9 million to USD4.3 million and an increase in capital investment loan of USD1.3 million.

 

The current portion of borrowings was reduced from USD27.0 million to USD15.7 million as we controlled the draw down of the short-term lines and limited the cash position at the end of year to USD2.4 million from USD9.3 million at 31 December 2014. We consider the risk of further devaluation is now much lower and the cost of borrowing in KZT has come some way off its early 2016 high.

 

The liquidity ratio improved to 0.7 from 1.55 at 31 December 2014 and all covenants under the various credit lines have been met comfortably.

 

We have renewed the revolving working capital credit line from Halyk Bank of KZT3 billion until 2018 but the interest remains high (15-20% p.a.). Therefore we have been borrowing at 6% in USD during the first quarter of 2016. KZT0.5 billion from that line will remain in KZT at 6% under the government subsidized program. We have an additional credit line from Altyn Bank of KZT which will be increased to KZT0.9 billion and prolonged later in May 2016.

 

The KZT2.19 billion government subsidized loan that we negotiated covers KZT1.69 billion capital expenditure and replaces KZT0.5 billion of the working capital lines. Both lines are denominated in KZT, priced at 6% and have been substantially disbursed as of 31 March 2016.

 

In 2015 finance costs decreased to USD4.2 million from USD4.8 million in 2014 due to the continuous repayment of loan principals.

Depreciation decreased to USD10.7 million in 2015 from USD12.2 million in 2014 mostly due to the exchange rate.

 

The statutory corporate income tax rate remains at 20% in Kazakhstan.
