Press Release: 3 November 2010

SinterCast Results July-September 2010

  • Revenue for period: SEK 8.3 million (SEK 5.2 million). Year-to-date: SEK 24.9 million (SEK 14.5 million)
  • Operating result: SEK 2.0 million (SEK -1.5 million). Year-to-date: SEK 3.3 million (SEK -5.2 million)
  • Earning/share: SEK 0.5 per share (SEK 1.8 per share). Year-to-date: SEK 1.1 per share (SEK -0.3 per share)
  • Cashflow: SEK 0.5 million (SEK 17.6 million). Year-to-date: SEK 1.2 million (SEK 17.7 million)
  • Series production exceeds annualised rate of one million Engine Equivalents in August and September
  • VM Motori launches 3.0 litre engine with SinterCast-CGI cylinder block and bedplate

Annualised Series production surpassed the one million Engine Equivalent milestone in the third quarter providing year-on-year growth of 120% compared to September 2009

Current Production and Outlook

Annualised series production reached 1,050,000 Engine Equivalents in August and grew further to 1,100,000 Engine Equivalents (55,000 tonnes/year) in September, clearly demonstrating stable series production in excess of the one million milestone during the period. The series production for September 2010 represents a 120% increase relative to the production pace of 500,000 Engine Equivalents in September 2009, and a 47% increase compared to the preeconomic downturn high of 750,000 Engine Equivalents established in September 2008. The significant growth in series production is primarily derived from the continued ramp-up of the Ford 6.7 litre V8 engine and from increased exhaust component production in China; however, the launch of the Navistar 6.4 litre V8, the Land Rover 4.4 litre V8, and VM Motori 3.0 litre V6 diesel engines during 2010 has also contributed to the growth, providing the basis for a positive cashflow outlook for 2010.

In conjunction with the Paris Motor Show, VM Motori SpA of Italy introduced a new 3.0 litre V6 diesel engine with a SinterCast-CGI cylinder block and bedplate. The cylinder blocks and bedplates began series production at the Tupy foundry in Brazil during mid-2010 and become the sixteenth and seventeenth CGI components to be produced by Tupy using the SinterCast process control technology. Following pre-machining of the cylinder blocks and bedplates at Tupy, final machining and engine assembly are performed in a purpose-built manufacturing facility at VM Motori in Cento, Italy. The Euro 5 compliant engine is capable of 240 horsepower (59 kW/litre) and 550 Nm of torque and will be available in 2011 model year vehicles in the European market. The VM Motori engine reconfirms that CGI has effectively become the standard material for passenger vehicle V-diesel engines, providing the best combination of weight reduction, compact design, performance, NVH, durability and environmental efficiency.

As part of SinterCast's ongoing efforts to increase the awareness of CGI in China, press conferences were held in Shanghai and Beijing for 18 of China's leading automotive journals. SinterCast also provided a half-day technology seminar at China's only foundry conference devoted specifically to automotive foundries. These presentations, together with the ongoing direct contacts that have been established with the main automotive foundries, are an important part of the strategy to establish and grow the SinterCast brand in China.

Based on the current production programmes and the potential market development during SinterCast's five year planning horizon, the five year outlook is summarised as follows:

Financial Summary

Revenue

The revenue for the SinterCast Group relates primarily to income from equipment (sales and leases), series production and engineering service.

Revenue Breakdown July-September January-September
2010 2009 2010 2009
Number of Sampling Cups shipped 23,400 15,400 72,050 36,000
Equipment 1 0.2 0.3 1.5 2.3
Series Production 2 7.8 4.5 22.2 10.9
Engineering Service 3 0.3 0.4 1.0 1.3
Other 0.0 0.0 0.2 0.0
Total 8.3 5.2 24.9 14.5

(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated)

Notes: 1. Includes revenue from system sales and leases and sales of spare parts

    1. Includes revenue from production fees, consumables and software licence fees
    1. Includes revenue from technical support, on-site trials and sales of test pieces

The July-September 2010 revenue amounted to SEK 8.3 million (SEK 5.2 million). The revenue increase of 60% is a result of the significant increases in series production and Sampling Cup shipments. The revenue from series production increased by 73% to SEK 7.8 million (SEK 4.5 million), due to the record production at an annualised rate of approximately 1,100,000 (500,000) Engine Equivalents and the shipment of 23,400 (15,400) Sampling Cups. Despite the increase in series production during the third quarter 2010, the revenue decreased by SEK 0.3 million compared to the second quarter 2010 mainly due to lower equipment and engineering service revenue. Additional engineering service activities during the period were concentrated mainly on the Pressurised Pouring Furnace development project. Development activities amounted to SEK 0.4 million and have been accounted as investments and credited R&D costs.

The January-September 2010 revenue amounted to SEK 24.9 million (SEK 14.5 million). The revenue increase of 72% is as a result of the significant increases in series production, the doubling of the Sampling Cup shipments, and the invoicing of the Mini-System 3000 to First Automobile Works in China. The revenue from series production increased by 104% to SEK 22.2 million (SEK 10.9 million).

(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated)

*Based on 6,478,383 shares

The July-September 2010 operating result of SEK 2.0 million (SEK -1.5million) was primarily affected by the higher gross result of SEK 3.4 million compared to the same period 2009. The R&D costs were reduced by SEK 0.4 million due to the activation of Pressurised Pouring Furnace and development project. The result after tax for the July-September 2010 period amounted to SEK 3.0 million (SEK 10.1 million), primarily related to the revaluation of the deferred tax asset, as described in the section entitled "Deferred Tax Asset".

The January-September 2010 operating result of SEK 3.3 million (SEK -5.2) million was primarily affected by the higher gross result of SEK 9.2 million compared to the same period 2009. The result after tax for the January-September 2010 period amounted to SEK 7.4 million (SEK -1.6 million), primarily related to the revaluation of the deferred tax asset, as described in the section entitled "Deferred Tax Asset".

Deferred Tax Asset

SinterCast calculates its estimated future taxable profit from secured production orders on a quarterly basis, in order to determine the valuation of its deferred tax asset.

Income tax 0.0 10.7 3.0 2.7 2.7

(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated), (FY: Full Year)

SinterCast has reassessed the estimated future taxable profit and deferred tax asset calculation from secured orders to reflect the current expectation of programme longevity and the typical lifecycle for engine programmes in the automotive industry. As of 30 September 2010, SEK 97.0 million (SEK 80.3 million) of SinterCast's total carried-forward tax losses have been used as the basis of the updated calculation, resulting in SEK 25.5 million (SEK 21.1 million) being capitalised as a deferred tax asset. Due to the positive result for the period, the deferred tax asset has been reduced by SEK -1.3 million (SEK 0.0 million) to SEK 24.2 million (SEK 21.1 million).

Employee Stock Option Programme

As of 30 September 2010, the cost of the employee stock option programme 2009-2013 was calculated at a total amount of SEK 3.2 million (SEK 3.3 million), based on a closing share price of SEK 52.0 (SEK 49.4). Thus far during 2010, SEK 1.1 million (SEK 0.7 million) has been accounted for as costs related to the option programme.

Cashflow, Liquidity and Investments

The July-September 2010 cashflow result was SEK 0.5 million (SEK 17.6 million), providing a Group liquidity of SEK 26.0 million (SEK 26.7 million) on 30 September 2010. The successful completion of the warrant programme resulted in a net cash injection of SEK 11.3 million on 6 October 2010 and will appear in future liquidity reports. It is noted that the cashflow result from operating activities was positive during the period. The increase in working capital required during the period relates to increased receivables and reduced liabilities.

Investments during the period amounted to SEK 0.5 million (SEK 1.2 million), mainly relating to the activation of the Pressurised Pouring Furnace development project.

Cashflow Summary July-September January-September
2010 2009 2010 2009
Cashflow from operating activities 2.9 -1.2 5.3 -4.0
Cashflow from working capital -2.4 0.0 -3.9 0.6
Cashflow from investment activities 0.0 0.2 -0.2 -0.5
Cashflow from financing activities - 18.6 - 21.6
Cashflow total 0.5 17.6 1.2 17.7
Liquidity 26.0 26.7 26.0 26.7
Investments 0.5 1.2 0.7 1.2

(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated)

Current liquidity is SEK 26.0 million, with an additional SEK 11.3 million received on 6 October 2010 from the warrants related to the rights issue conducted during September 2009 and the potential for an additional SEK 1.7 million from the exercise of the first 15% of the employee stock options during November-December 2010.

Risks and Uncertainty Factors

Market Development

Despite the positive increase in series production, the main uncertainty factor for SinterCast continues to be the overall timing of the CGI market ramp-up, which primarily depends on the global economy for new vehicle sales and on the individual sales success of the vehicles equipped with SinterCast-CGI components. The economic conditions facing the global foundry and automotive industries have, in some cases, caused automotive OEMs to delay production launches. In parallel, foundries have delayed plans for new investment in CGI production capacity. The overall decline in the automotive market has resulted in a reduction of SinterCast's near-term market opportunity calculation from a peak of 5.7 million Engine Equivalents on 30 June 2008 to the current value of 4.3 million Engine Equivalents. Although the automotive sector has begun to recover, volumes in SinterCast's core markets are still significantly below pre-downturn levels and the SinterCast-CGI programmes that started production before 3Q08 have still not fully recovered. While SinterCast continues to support new product development activities, and anticipates new production launches and new opportunities for installation revenue, the Board believes that it is still not possible to determine the ultimate effect of the global economic recession or the timing and rate of the overall market recovery.

Liquidity

SinterCast regularly monitors its cash position with reference to market forecasts and internal expense budgets. In consideration of current expense and revenue forecasts, the Board judges that the Company's financial position is secure. The Company will continue its prudent approach toward expenses and new recruitment.

Market Penetration and Competition

SinterCast has played a leading role in the development and application of CGI since the early 1990's. SinterCast enjoys global brand recognition and respect as the CGI technology leader and is welcomed by the industry as a reliable and trustworthy partner. However, virtually every company encounters competition, and SinterCast is no exception. As the CGI market has developed, some foundry supply companies have proposed alternative CGI technologies. To SinterCast's knowledge, these have included Hereaus-Electronite, OxyCast, OCC and NovaCast. It is also possible that some foundries may opt to produce CGI using in-house control and discipline, but this is generally judged to become less likely as product complexity and production volumes increase, and as specification requirements become more rigidly enforced by the endusers. SinterCast judges that its technology and engineering know-how provides the most reliable and cost-effective solution for the production of high quality CGI. Based on its proven technology, production experience and engineering service, SinterCast will continue to support new CGI development activities to further increase its share of the world CGI production capacity. With respect to the development of alternative automotive technologies such as biofuels, hybrids and fuel cells, SinterCast does not expect these to have a significant effect on the Company's competitive position for the foreseeable future.

Personnel

As of 30 September 2010, the Group had 13 (13) employees, two (two) of which were female. The core technical staff has the necessary skills and resources to support ongoing customer activities and to support the current intensified market development. Further recruitment will be phased with the development of field activities, particularly the need to support new installations.

Review report

We have reviewed this report for the period 1 January 2010 to 30 September 2010 for SinterCast AB (publ). The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

We conducted our review in accordance with the Swedish Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden, RS, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
