皇冠体育-克利夫斯报告2023年第二季度业绩

皇冠体育——（皇冠体育官网商业资讯）——CLEVELAND- cliffs Inc.（纽约证券交易所代码：CLF）今天公布了截至2023年6月30日的第二季度业绩。

选定的2023年第二季度财务业绩包括：

• 收入60亿美元
• 钢材净出货量420万吨
• 净收入3.56亿美元
• 调整后EBITDA1为7.75亿美元
• 经营现金流为8.87亿美元
• 自由现金流7.56亿美元
• 净负债降至39亿美元
• 总流动资金38亿美元，创公司历史新高

2023年第二季度收入为60亿美元，而2023年第一季度为53亿美元。

2023年第二季度，公司净收入为3.56亿美元，摊薄后每股收益为0.67美元。其中包括与收购成本、资产处置、遣散费和某些资产加速折旧相关的总计1100万美元的费用，即每股摊薄0.02美元。在2023年第一季度，公司的GAAP净亏损为4200万美元，相当于每股摊薄后的GAAP净亏损0.11美元。

2023年第二季度调整后EBITDA1为7.75亿美元，而2023年第一季度为2.43亿美元。

Cliffs董事长、总裁兼首席执行官Lourenco Goncalves表示：“我们第二季度的钢铁总出货量超过420万吨，这是汽车出货量再创新高的直接结果。这种向更高汽车组合的转变导致了比我们预期更高的实现价格，最终推动了我们行业领先的季度EBITDA增长。此外，由于第二季度产生了大量的自由现金流，我们能够在本季度减少超过5.5亿美元的债务，同时通过股票回购向股东返还近1亿美元。与竞争对手不同的是，无论是现在还是未来几年，我们的资本支出需求都是众所周知的，而且很低。”

Goncalves先生总结道：“展望未来，我们将迎来成为钢铁公司以来最好的出货年。服务中心库存明显低于历史水平，为今年下半年的健康发展提供了支持。最后，虽然我们的汽车客户的业绩持续改善，但该行业尚未恢复到covid前的水平，这表明皇冠体育-克利夫斯在不久的将来仍有很多价值有待释放。”

2023年第二季度钢材产品销售量为420万吨，其中热轧35%，涂层30%，冷轧15%，钢板6%，不锈钢和电气4%，其他10%，包括板坯和钢轨。

在58亿美元的炼钢收入中，有20亿美元是面向汽车市场的直接销售，占34%；16亿美元，占基础设施和制造业市场销售额的27%；14亿美元，占分销商和转换器市场销售额的25%；对钢铁生产商的销售额为7.96亿美元，占销售额的14%。

流动性和现金流量

cliff在2023年第二季度录得7.56亿美元的自由现金流，其中大部分用于偿还公司ABL贷款的债务。

截至2023年6月30日，公司的流动资金总额为38亿美元。在2023年第二季度，公司将其ABL贷款的未偿借款减少了13亿美元。

cliff将净债务从2023年第一季度的45亿美元降至39亿美元。cliff还在2023年第二季度以每股14.43美元的平均价格回购了650万股股票。

前景

该公司之前制定的成本削减目标仍然是目标，cliff目前预计2023年第二季度至第三季度钢铁单位成本每净吨再降低40美元，2023年第三季度至第四季度每吨再降低10美元。

We caution investors that any forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results and future trends to differ materially from those matters expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Among the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those described in forward-looking statements are the following: continued volatility of steel, iron ore and scrap metal market prices, which directly and indirectly impact the prices of the products that we sell to our customers; uncertainties associated with the highly competitive and cyclical steel industry and our reliance on the demand for steel from the automotive industry, which has been experiencing supply chain disruptions, such as the semiconductor shortage, and higher consumer interest rates, which could result in lower steel volumes being demanded; potential weaknesses and uncertainties in global economic conditions, excess global steelmaking capacity, oversupply of iron ore, prevalence of steel imports and reduced market demand, including as a result of inflationary pressures, infectious disease outbreaks, conflicts or otherwise; severe financial hardship, bankruptcy, temporary or permanent shutdowns or operational challenges of one or more of our major customers, including customers in the automotive market, key suppliers or contractors, which, among other adverse effects, could disrupt our operations or lead to reduced demand for our products, increased difficulty collecting receivables, and customers and/or suppliers asserting force majeure or other reasons for not performing their contractual obligations to us; disruptions to our operations relating to an infectious disease outbreak, including workforce challenges and the risk that novel variants will prove resistant to existing vaccines or that new or continuing lockdowns in China will impact our ability to source certain critical supplies in a timely and predictable manner; risks related to U.S. government actions with respect to Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (as amended by the Trade Act of 1974), the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement and/or other trade agreements, tariffs, treaties or policies, as well as the uncertainty of obtaining and maintaining effective antidumping and countervailing duty orders to counteract the harmful effects of unfairly traded imports; impacts of existing and increasing governmental regulation, including potential environmental regulations relating to climate change and carbon emissions, and related costs and liabilities, including failure to receive or maintain required operating and environmental permits, approvals, modifications or other authorizations of, or from, any governmental or regulatory authority and costs related to implementing improvements to ensure compliance with regulatory changes, including potential financial assurance requirements, and reclamation and remediation obligations; potential impacts to the environment or exposure to hazardous substances resulting from our operations; our ability to maintain adequate liquidity, our level of indebtedness and the availability of capital could limit our financial flexibility and cash flow necessary to fund working capital, planned capital expenditures, acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes or ongoing needs of our business; our ability to reduce our indebtedness or return capital to shareholders within the currently expected timeframes or at all; adverse changes in credit ratings, interest rates, foreign currency rates and tax laws, including adverse impacts as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022; the outcome of, and costs incurred in connection with, lawsuits, claims, arbitrations or governmental proceedings relating to commercial and business disputes, antitrust claims, environmental matters, government investigations, occupational or personal injury claims, property damage, labor and employment matters, or suits involving legacy operations and other matters; uncertain availability or cost, due to inflation or otherwise, of critical manufacturing equipment and spare parts; supply chain disruptions or changes in the cost, quality or availability of energy sources, including electricity, natural gas and diesel fuel, or critical raw materials and supplies, including iron ore, industrial gases, graphite electrodes, scrap metal, chrome, zinc, coke and metallurgical coal; problems or disruptions associated with transporting products to our customers, moving manufacturing inputs or products internally among our facilities, or suppliers transporting raw materials to us; the risk that the cost or time to implement a strategic or sustaining capital project may prove to be greater than originally anticipated; uncertainties associated with natural or human-caused disasters, adverse weather conditions, unanticipated geological conditions, critical equipment failures, infectious disease outbreaks, tailings dam failures and other unexpected events; cybersecurity incidents relating to, disruptions in, or failures of, information technology systems that are managed by us or third parties that host or have access to our data or systems, including the loss, theft or corruption of sensitive or essential business or personal information and the inability to access or control systems; liabilities and costs arising in connection with any business decisions to temporarily or indefinitely idle or permanently close an operating facility or mine, which could adversely impact the carrying value of associated assets and give rise to impairment charges or closure and reclamation obligations, as well as uncertainties associated with restarting any previously idled operating facility or mine; our level of self-insurance and our ability to obtain sufficient third-party insurance to adequately cover potential adverse events and business risks; uncertainties associated with our ability to meet customers' and suppliers' decarbonization goals and reduce our greenhouse gas emissions in alignment with our own announced targets; challenges to maintaining our social license to operate with our stakeholders, including the impacts of our operations on local communities, reputational impacts of operating in a carbon-intensive industry that produces greenhouse gas emissions, and our ability to foster a consistent operational and safety track record; our actual economic mineral reserves or reductions in current mineral reserve estimates, and any title defect or loss of any lease, license, easement or other possessory interest for any mining property; our ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations with unions and employees; unanticipated or higher costs associated with pension and other post-employment benefit obligations resulting from changes in the value of plan assets or contribution increases required for unfunded obligations; uncertain availability or cost of skilled workers to fill critical operational positions and potential labor shortages caused by experienced employee attrition or otherwise, as well as our ability to attract, hire, develop and retain key personnel; the amount and timing of any repurchases of our common shares; and potential significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
