Outokumpu Oyj (OUTFF) maintained its market leadership positions, holding a 31% market share in Europe and 24% in North America despite challenging conditions. The company achieved a significant EBITDA run rate improvement of EUR101 million in 2024, with a cumulative improvement of EUR287 million by year-end. Outokumpu Oyj (OUTFF) is recognized as an industry leader in sustainability, achieving a 32% reduction in emission intensity and maintaining a high scrap rate of 95%. The company's ferrochrome business contributed to 60% of the results, providing stability and benefiting from its unique position as the only EU-based producer. Outokumpu Oyj (OUTFF) maintained a strong balance sheet, with net debt decreasing to EUR189 million and liquidity reserves at EUR1.1 billion. The company faced difficult market conditions with a 6% decrease in group deliveries, including an 11% decrease in Europe. Profitability was negatively impacted by lower realized prices for stainless steel and unfavorable impacts from a tighter scrap market. The Finnish political strike had a significant negative impact, reducing potential earnings by EUR60 million. Outokumpu Oyj (OUTFF) decided to limit its 2025 CapEx to EUR160 million, delaying some strategic investments. The company experienced increased raw material costs and higher fixed costs due to prolonged maintenance, impacting profitability. Q: Can you elaborate on the decision not to proceed with the US cold rolling investment? Was it due to higher CapEx or lack of tariffs? A: Kati Horst, CEO: We assessed the demand-supply balance in the Americas and concluded there wasn't enough room for additional cold rolling capacity. Instead, we're focusing on debottlenecking current assets in the Americas and Mexico, which has been progressing well. We remain open to future opportunities as the market evolves. Q: How would potential US-Mexico tariffs affect your Mexinox operations? A: Kati Horst, CEO: Currently, there are no tariffs imposed by Mexico on the US. We believe it's unlikely given the integrated supply chains between the two countries. However, if tariffs were imposed, we could explore alternative supply options, though we don't see this as a likely scenario. Q: What is the outlook for the US market given the potential tariffs and import pressures? A: Kati Horst, CEO: Tariffs could positively impact local production by protecting the US stainless steel market. However, we need to see industrial production investments pick up to support demand. The tariffs could bring some inflation and price increase pressure to the market. Q: Can you provide insights into the Q1 volume growth guidance and underlying demand? A: Kati Horst, CEO: The expected volume growth is due to seasonality and replenishment of stocks from low levels. While there are positive signs in our order book, it's still early to determine if this reflects real demand. Q: What are the implications of the ongoing review of the European safeguard mechanism on imports? A: Marc-Simon Schaar, CFO: We've seen an increase in imports in Europe, and the pricing differential between continents has narrowed. The impact of the safeguard mechanism review is yet to be determined, and we await more clarity on future import trends.
