Corona Virus and its impact on the automotive industry

  • The corona virus (Corona) has impacted the automotive industry significantly.
  • The Corona outbreak started in China slightly before the Chinese new year vacation
    • This led to shutdowns in China extending beyond the normal new year shut down periods.
    • Due to very strict and effective measures, China has returned to somewhat normal automotive operations in early April.
  • As we all have since learned, the economic impact outside of China has been much stronger as the Corona virus has spread rapidly throughout the world.
  • As the first countries European countries started "shutting down", essentially the entire global automotive industry shut down. The shutdowns are both health and supply chain related.
    • The supply chains in the automotive industry are very global, complex, and intertwined.
    • Under normal circumstances, these automotive supply chains are very "well oiled machines". However, when shock is inserted into the system, it stops functioning.
  • For all practical purposes, the automotive industry has shut down outside of China and portions of Japan and South Korea.
    • This has led to sudden and very sharp declines in revenues for all automotive suppliers.
  • There is great uncertainty as to how long the current situation will last and also at what level the economy will "restart" following the reopening of operations.
    • There is a general expectation, that we will have a recession following the Corona related shutdowns. There is great uncertainty as to whether the recovery from the Corona effects will follow the patterns of other downcycles.
  • The automotive industry is in general considered by most large industrial nations as "too big to fail" and will receive significant support from governments. Such efforts, though, will mostly focus on the OEMs, not on the suppliers.

  • In Q1, 2020, Kongsberg Automotive (KA) saw revenues decline of more than 15% YoY to €262 million. This was driven by a combination of declines in China following the Chinese new year shutdown extension and the almost complete shutdown of Western OEMs in the last 10 days of March.

  • KA's Q1 2020 adjusted EBIT declined by almost 75% to slightly less than €8 million.
  • In the seasonally weak first quarter, we had a negative cash flow of around €8 million. The cash flow performance was strengthened primarily by strong working capital measures..
  • Paradoxically enough, we had strong new business wins (NBW) in Q1 2020 of around €100 million in annualized business, above the levels of previous years' Q1 NBWs (as seen on slides 9 and 10). It should, however, be noted that we saw almost no NBWs in March.
  • As has been the case over the last years, these strong NBWs should enable Kongsberg Automotive to outperform the automotive sector in top line growth.
  • For the remainder of 2020, and for that matter also for 2021, there is great uncertainty. There are three key questions:
  • How long will the current shutdowns last?
  • When, at what pace and to what level will the restart take place?
  • Following 2020, at what level will the business levels be in 2021?
  • In order to plan for the future, KA has developed various scenarios for 2020 and 2021 which are based mainly on management estimates. These scenarios do not reflect any guidance or forecasts and the actual results for 2020 and 2021 could differ from the scenario outputs. These are described on the next slide.
  • Each scenario models the expected P&L performance, working capital levels, capex, and cash flow.
  • Many scenarios have been worked out. For simplicity purposes, this presentation covers three scenarios; high case, medium case, and low case where the "high case" represents the most favorable outcome and the low case represents the least favorable outcome among the scenarios. The difference between the various scenarios is the underlying market assumptions which ultimately drive the revenues of the company and which the company does not control.
  • All the scenarios lead to a significant need for additional liquidity.

Three Scenarios – Revenue impact for Kongsberg Automotive

As mentioned, we have modeled three scenarios:
Revenues High case Medium Case Low case
2019 (for reference) €1,161 million €1,161 million €1,161 million
2020 € 914.6 million
This assumes shutdowns
as we currently
experience through April
with a quick ramp up in
the first two weeks of
May.
€877.9 million
This assumes shutdowns
as we currently experience
through April with a slow
ramp up in May and the first
week of June.
€818.2 million
This assumes shutdowns
as we currently experience
through May with a slow
ramp up in June and the
first week of July.
2021 €1,091 million
This assumes 2021
revenue levels of around
6% less than in 2019.
€1,068 million
This assumes 2021
revenue levels of around
8% less than in 2019.
€1,043 million
This assumes 2021
revenue levels of around
10% less than in 2019.
  • We believe that the "High case" is probably overly optimistic, as the challenges surrounding a quick restart in 2020 are large and the recovery speed for 2021 under this scenario would be aggressive.
  • We believe that the "Low case" is probably overly pessimistic, particularly for 2020 as such a long shutdown period will almost be unbearable for an industry that is broadly seen as "too big to fail".
  • Consequently, we believe that the most likely outcome is somewhere between the "High" and "Low" cases. This is what the "Medium case" represents.
  • Note that for the revenue assumptions for 2021 one should bear in mind that due to KA's strong business wins, we have typically outperformed the market in top line growth by around 3-5% points. Taking this into account, the assumptions for the 2021 revenues reflect underlying market declines of 13-15%, 11-13% and 9-11% for the Low, Medium and High scenarios, respectively. This would represent a drop larger than in previous downcycles/recessions.

    • been considered in the model above.
  • The liquidity need is smaller than the cumulative cash flow due to liquidity reserves at the beginning of 2020.
  • The highest cumulative liquidity need in the period is generally higher than the end of year need due to large intra-year liquidity variation driven mostly by working capital swings due to intra-year volume swings.
  • The above includes furlough and short time work actions in place for the duration of shutdowns.
  • The cash burn rate for an extra month of shutdowns is around €30 million.
  • The cash breakeven point for the KA operations in a steady state is at an annual revenue level of around €1,080 million at low growth and around €1,150 million in the previous growth mode.
  • In order to fully fund the Corona related downturn and the following expected recession, according to the model parameters, we need to secure additional liquidity of around €120-150 million. This leaves some safety margin. See the next page.
  • Please note that the actual figures for 2020 and 2021 may be outside of the ranges of the high-medium-low scenarios above.
  • Even in the low scenario, Kongsberg Automotive would return to positive EBITDA figures in 2021.

  • Sources of funding does not include any proceeds from potential divestitures
  • Under the assumption that €150 million in liquidity is needed by the end of 2021, the net debt of the company would be between €200 million and €240 million depending on scenario.
  • We believe KA should get back to and surpass the historical adjusted EBITDA levels (2019: €118 million) following the Corona recovery in the medium to long term.
  • In order to be fully funded (€120-150 million), we need to secure all but one of the items in the above table, in line with the model parameters.
  • We have additional sources of funding that have not been included in this overview due to the greater uncertainty in timing and size. See the overview in the backup section (slide 25).

Conclusion

  • Since 2016, following a turn-around, Kongsberg Automotive (KA) developed into a healthy business and achieved above-market revenue growth through strong new business wins, more than doubling of adj. EBIT margins and tripling of absolute adj. EBIT amounts through operational improvements. Strong growth in Sales and adj.
