PJSC Mechel: Mechel Reports the FY 2021 Financial Results

MOSCOW, RUSSIA / ACCESSWIRE / March 1, 2022 / Mechel PAO (MOEX:MTLR)(NYSE:MTL), a leading Russian mining and steel group, announces financial results for the FY 2021.

Consolidated Results for the FY'2021

Mechel PAO's Chief Executive Officer Oleg Korzhov commented:

"The Group's consolidated revenue in 2021 amounted to 402.1 billion rubles, up by 51% year-on-year. EBITDA was 118.9 billion rubles, demonstrating a 190% growth year-on-year. EBITDA margin was 30%, doubling the EBITDA margin of 2020.

"Favorable trends on steel and metallurgical commodity markets was the key driver for the improvement of the Group's financial results. On average, the prices for our facilities' steel products went up by 60% year-on-year. Average coking coal concentrate prices doubled.

"Despite a correction in coal prices at the end of the year, the factors that determined their dynamics in 2021 have not changed. High demand for coal products and supply constraints persist. As such, prices stabilized at levels lower than October highs, but higher than maximums of the previous years.

"Our net debt went down by over 50 billion rubles compared to the last year. Net debt to EBITDA ratio went down to 2.3, which is a record unseen by our company for many years.

"Operational results in 2021 went down year-on-year in both our mining and steel segments. This was due to insufficient funding of our facilities in previous years as we needed to service and repay substantial financial obligations. With high price levels in 2021, the Group's cash flow significantly improved, which enabled us to focus on solving the piled-up problems. Last year we managed to repay most of the earlier accumulated liabilities to our contractors and restore the level of inventory stocks necessary for stable operations of our production and sales facilities. We also financed our repair and upgrade program and acquired new equipment.

"Last year's efforts on restoring operational volumes have not yet fully reflected in our operating results. Only our steel division has demonstrated growing pig iron and steel output in the past quarter, outperforming the previous three quarters. This year we expect our operations to reveal quarterly improvement."

Revenue

The Group's consolidated revenue from sales to third parties in 4Q2021 went up by 11% and amounted to 114.3 billion rubles.

EBITDA

Consolidated EBITDA in 4Q2021 amounted to 35.0 billion rubles, which is 10% more quarter-on-quarter.

Profit

Profit attributable to Mechel PAO's equity shareholders in 4Q2021 went up by 6.2 billion rubles, or 29% quarter-on-quarter and amounted to 27.5 billion rubles. The mining division's results contributed to this improvement the most.

Operating cash flow

As our key financial results improved in 4Q2021 quarter-on-quarter, operational cash flow went up by 18.9 billion rubles and amounted to 31.9 billion rubles. The cash flow remains sufficient not only for funding the Group's operational and decreasing its debt leverage, but also for investing in maintenance and development of our facilities.

Finance costs

In 4Q2021, the Group's finance costs demonstrated an increase of 0.2 billion rubles, going up to 6.3 billion rubles as the Bank of Russia's key interest rate went up. For this reason, the amount of interest paid, including interest paid on lease liabilities, went up from 4.8 billion rubles in 3Q2021 to 5 billion in 4Q2021.

Revenue

In 2021, the Group's consolidated revenue amounted to 402.1 billion rubles, up 136.6 billion rubles or 51% year-on-year.

EBITDA

Consolidated EBITDA in 2021 was 118.9 billion rubles, which is 77.8 billion or 190% more than in 2020 (41.1 billion rubles) primarily due to gross profit's 83.2-billion-ruble growth as prices for our mining and steel products went up.

Profit

Profit attributable to Mechel PAO's equity shareholders amounted to 80.6 billion rubles, which is 79.8 billion more than in 2020. Apart from gross profit's growth, another major impact came from the increase in foreign exchange gains on foreign currency denominated liabilities by 7.9 billion rubles, as compared to loss of 36.4 billion rubles in 2020.

Trade working capital

In 2021 the Group's trade working capital changed by 34.6 billion rubles and amounted to 25.6 billion rubles, which was largely due to accumulating inventories by 20.3 billion rubles due to growing raw materials prices and prices for stockpiled products, as well as the increase in trade receivables by 7.9 billion as prices for our mining and steel products demonstrated substantial growth.

Finance costs

In 2021, the Group's finance costs went down year-on-year by 1.8 billion rubles or 7%, and the amount of interest paid, including interest paid on lease liabilities, was 19.4 billion rubles, which is 16% less year-on-year (23 billion in 2020) as the Group's debt leverage went down substantially.

Debt leverage

As of December 31, 2021, the Group's net debt excluding fines and penalties on overdue amounts went down by 50.6 billion rubles as compared to December 31, 2020, and amounted to 275 billion rubles. This was due to net loan settlement as well as the ruble's strengthening against the euro.

The Net Debt to EBITDA ratio improved considerably by the end of 2021 and amounted to 2.3, as compared to 7.9 at the end of 2020.

Revenue

Revenue from sales to third parties in 4Q2021 went up by 19% quarter-on-quarter. This was due to a hike in prices for all types of the division's output. The decrease in metallurgical coals and middlings sales volumes proved a restraining factor. Revenue from contracts with external customers in 2021 went up by 56% year-on-year.

EBITDA

EBITDA in 4Q2021 went up by 3% quarter-on-quarter. The positive impact from growing revenue was offset by increasing costs as sales volumes went down. In 2021, the division's EBITDA went up 188% year-on-year. This was primarily due to higher prices for all kinds of the division's output year-on-year.

Last year was marked by high volatility on the markets for our mining division's key products - coking coal concentrate and metallurgical coals. After a fairly stable first third of the year, where moderate price fluctuations addressed only FOB Australia based coal, starting in late May prices skyrocketed on every market.

The price dynamics was due to high demand from consumers as well as limited supply as Australian mining companies underwent repairs, China's shortage of domestic coking coal supply as outdated mines closed down, as well as unstable supply from Mongolia due to worsening pandemic situation in that country.

With these trends, the prices continued to actively grow throughout the third quarter and into the fourth. By late October prices reached record highs - about $400 per tonne of coking coal concentrate FOB Australia and $600 per tonne CFR China.

In October Chinese authorities undertook a series of measures to bring down coking coal prices. As a result, global coal prices went down significantly from record highs, but still remained at historical maximums. Starting in early 2022, prices again demonstrated an upward trend and have now stabilized at approximately $440 per tonne of coking coal concentrate FOB Australia and $390 per tonne CFR China.

As a result, average yearly prices for metallurgical coals sold by our mining division in 2021 were nearly double the average prices of 2020.

The division's financial results reflected those favorable market trends. Revenue from sales to third parties grew by more than one and a half times year-on-year, with EBITDA nearly tripled and EBITDA margin reaching 46%.

In these conditions, the division's main challenge was and is restoring operating performance. Due to funding shortages that became particularly acute in mid-2020, insufficient investment in acquiring new equipment and existing equipment repairing, as well as stripping works, led to a decrease in mining volumes.

Throughout 2021 the division's facilities focused on repairing their current equipment and acquired new equipment and machinery. By the end of the year, most of that equipment arrived and was put into operation. Unfortunately, not all our plans realized, partly due to complicated weather and geological conditions. In 2022, more equipment will come to our facilities.

Revenue

Revenue from contracts with external customers in 4Q2021 went up by 5% quarter-on-quarter due to increased sales volumes. Weakening market trends have restrained revenue dynamics. Revenue from sales to third parties in 2021 demonstrated a 57% growth year-on-year due to a significant price growth.

EBITDA

In 4Q2021, EBITDA went down by 11% as cost of sales grew due to increased coke prices. EBITDA margin in 4Q2021 went down to 12%. Over 2021, EBITDA demonstrated a 230% increase year-on-year due to growing prices for all of the division's output, despite an increase in cost of sales caused by increased prices for iron ore, coke and scrap.

The year-on-year dynamics of our financial results was most defined by growing prices for the entire product range of our division's facilities. As a result, in 2021 revenue went up by more than one and a half times, operating profit grew nearly sixfold to reach 37.4 billion rubles from 6.5 billion in 2020. EBITDA went up by 230%, EBITDA margin doubled.

The growth of sales volumes in 4Q2021 had a positive impact on the division's financial results. At the same time, the seasonal decrease in this period's average prices as well as increased costs had a negative impact. As a result, revenue went up by 5% quarter-on-quarter, while EBITDA and EBITDA margin went down.

However, even though the division's operating results went down year-on-year, we must note increased output of pig iron and steel in 4Q2021 quarter-on-quarter. In last year's final quarter the division's operating results reached that year's maximum, which also had a positive impact on sales.

This was the result of repairs and equipment upgrades the division's facilities conducted last year, as well as launches of new equipment and expansion of our product range. Favorable market trends helped strengthen our facilities' financial situation, and that enabled us to improve our producers' supply of necessary raw materials, ferroalloys, spare parts and other materials, as well as bring down unplanned equipment downtime.

Revenue

The division's revenue in 4Q2021 went up by 34% quarter-on-quarter due mostly to seasonal factors. Revenue for 2021 went up by 4% year-on-year as unregulated capacity prices on the wholesale electric power and capacity market as well as retail markup increased year-on-year.

EBITDA

The quarter-on-quarter dynamics of the division's EBITDA was defined by one-time events which led to a decrease in general administrative and other operating expenses as well as seasonal factors. EBITDA in 2021 went down by 30% year-on-year due to increased costs of sales and selling and distribution expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of our Revenue. Our adjusted EBITDA may not be similar to EBITDA measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement under IFRS and should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for the information contained in our consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. We believe that our adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of our ongoing business operations, including our ability to fund discretionary spending such as capital expenditures, acquisitions and other investments and our ability to incur and service debt. While depreciation, amortisation and impairment of goodwill and other non-current assets are considered operating expenses under IFRS, these expenses primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with non-current assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. Our adjusted EBITDA calculation is commonly used as one of the bases for investors, analysts and credit rating agencies to evaluate and compare the periodic and future operating performance and value of companies within the metals and mining industry.
