2021 Year-to-Date

  • Revenue for Period: SEK 52.5 million (SEK 43.3 million)
  • Operating Result: SEK 15.7 million (SEK 8.7 million)
  • Earnings per Share: SEK 2.6 per share (SEK 1.3 per share)

  • Installed Base: 55 installations in 14 Countries (25 (26) fully automated systems, 24 (26) mini-systems and six (five) tracking systems)

Series Production*

Annualised series production for the second quarter recovered to 3.2 million Engine Equivalents, double the year-ago volume and corresponding to 97% of the full-year pre-Covid volume of 3.3 million Engine Equivalents.

CEO Comments

Positive outlook ahead

Annualised series production increased throughout the quarter, growing from 3.1 million Engine Equivalents in April to 3.2 million in May and 3.3 million in June, providing four consecutive months above the three million Engine Equivalent benchmark. Second quarter production amounted to 3.2 million Engine Equivalents, exactly double the volume of 1.6 million Engine Equivalents at the low-point of the Covid cycle in the second quarter of 2020, and effectively equalling the full-year pre-Covid volume of 3.3 million Engine Equivalents.

The second quarter also provided record Sampling Cup shipments. In total, 73,600 Sampling Cups were shipped, corresponding to an 11% increase over the previous quarterly record set in 2018. While the increase reflects the positive outlook for series production, some of the increase is also undoubtedly related to the uncertainty in global supply chains, with foundries increasing the security of their stock levels. Ultimately, the increases in second quarter Sampling Cup shipments and series production volume were partially offset by lower year-on-year installation revenue and a 13% decrease in the US dollar exchange rate to provide revenue of SEK 28.2 million, corresponding to a 51% year-on-year gain.

The ongoing semiconductor supply challenges have resulted in vehicle production stoppages in some of our key high-volume programmes, and will continue to affect volumes in the second-half of the year. In our largest end-user market in North America, semiconductor shortages have led to all-time low vehicle inventory levels and strong demand for new vehicles. Ultimately, the pent up demand and the need to rebuild vehicle inventories provides the basis for a strong and sustained production outlook that is expected to drive demand into 2023. The production outlook is also buoyed by the pending start of commercial vehicle engine production at FAW in China and at Scania in Sweden, with initial contributions beginning in the second half of the year followed by strong growth in 2022 and 2023.

Positive installation outlook for second half

Influenced by travel restrictions, much of the 2021 installation activity has been deferred to the second half of the year. Installation revenue for the first half of the year amounted to SEK 1.7 million, primarily from spare parts. The second half of 2021 provides a busy outlook, with a Mini-System 4000 installation for product development at an undisclosed industrial power foundry in Asia; a System 4000 installation at the Impro foundry in Mexico; a Ladle Tracker installation at the Hyundai foundry in Korea; and, the final start-up support at FAW in China and Scania in Sweden. Together, these activities are expected to increase the installation revenue toward the historical full-year average by year-end. In parallel with the increased installation activities, a Mini-System 3000 that was sold to an undisclosed Asian client in 2012 for product development was returned to SinterCast following the conclusion of the development programme. The return has no effect on the financial results or the series production outlook.

Installation discussions are ongoing for CGI process control systems, capacity upgrades, and Tracking Technologies installations. In addition to these current installation opportunities, SinterCast is also investigating the development of other unique technologies – within and beyond the scope of thermal analysis – to improve quality and production efficiency in the metals industry, and to broaden our product portfolio and our production base.

Results

The business activities of SinterCast are best reflected by the Operating Result. This is because the "Result for the period after tax" and the "Earnings per Share" are influenced by the financial income and costs and by the revaluation of tax assets.

Results Summary April−June January−June
(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated) 2021 2020 2021 2020
Operating result 7.2 0.9 15.7 8.7
Result for the period after tax 11.4 3.0 18.3 9.6
Earnings per share (SEK) 1.6 0.4 2.6 1.3

The April−June 2021 operating result amounted to SEK 7.2 million (SEK 0.9 million), primarily because of a SEK 9.5 million increase in revenue, resulting in a SEK 6.8 million increase in gross margin, combined with an increase in operating costs of SEK 2.2 million, primarily due to increases in the number of employees and decreased other operating income of SEK 1.7 million. Tax income amounted to SEK 4.0 million following the revaluation of the deferred tax asset. The result for the period after tax amounted to SEK 11.4 million (SEK 3.0 million). During the period, no government support in relation to Covid-19 has been received.

The January−June 2021 operating result amounted to SEK 15.7 million (SEK 8.7 million), primarily because of a SEK 9.2 million increase in revenue, resulting in a SEK 6.4 million increase in gross margin, combined with an increase in operating costs of SEK 1.4 million, primarily due to increases in the number of employees and increased other operating income of SEK 1.9 million. Tax income amounted to SEK 3.9 million primarily following the revaluation of the deferred tax asset. The result for the period after tax amounted to SEK 18.3 million (SEK 9.6 million). During the period, no government support in relation to Covid-19 has been received.

Cashflow, Liquidity and Investments

Cashflow Summary January−June Cashflow Changes
(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated) 2021 2020 2021 vs 2020
Cashflow from operations, before change in working capital 16.8 10.6 6.2
Change in working capital -1.4 10.4 -11.8
Cashflow from operations 15.4 21.0 -5.6
Cashflow from investing activities -2.3 -4.0 1.7
Cashflow from financing activities -14.7 -0.6 -14.1
Cashflow total -1.6 16.4 -18.0
Liquidity 24.7 49.3

The January−June 2021 cashflow from operations decreased by SEK 5.6 million, compared to same period last year, due to increased working capital of SEK 11.8 million primarily related to increased operating receivables. Total investments amounted to SEK 2.3 million (SEK 4.0 million). Cashflow from financing activities decreased by SEK 14.1 million, primarily due to the first dividend payment in the amount of SEK 14.2 million (SEK 0.0 million). Total cashflow amounted to SEK -1.6 million (SEK 16.4 million). Liquidity on 30 June 2021 was SEK 24.7 million (SEK 49.3 million). SinterCast has no loans.

Income Tax and Deferred Tax Asset

Tax income for the January−June 2021 period amounted to SEK 3.9 million (SEK 0.0 million), of which SEK 4.0 million was due the reassessed deferred tax calculation and SEK -0.1 million was due to paid income tax. The estimated future taxable profit and deferred tax asset calculation is reassessed every quarter. As of 30 June 2021, SEK 233.5 million (SEK 214.1 million) of the SinterCast total carried-forward tax losses are the basis of the updated calculation, resulting in SEK 48.1 million (SEK 44.1 million) being capitalised as a deferred tax asset. The deferred tax asset calculation is based on historical eight-year average currency rates.

Risks and Uncertainty Factors

Uncertainty factors for SinterCast include the timing of OEM decisions for new CGI engines and other components, adherence to start-of-production dates and ramp projections, the global economy for new vehicle sales, technology trends and emissions legislation, and the individual sales success of vehicles equipped with SinterCast-CGI components.

COVID-19 – and related material and labour shortages – remain the dominant near-term risk factor for the global foundry and automotive industries. While it is prudent to expect that series production may be influenced through much of 2021, SinterCast remains confident in the long-term growth of CGI. Other factors that may influence the

market risk for SinterCast and its end-user industries include the current global political uncertainty, the renegotiation of international tariffs and free-trade agreements on vehicle sales, climate change legislation, and the overall demand for goods transportation.

No significant risk of material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities has been identified at the balance sheet date and no costs have been taken to the profit and loss due to the Covid-19 virus.

For additional risk and uncertainty factor information, see Note 26 on pages 65–70 in the SinterCast Annual Report 2020.
