HEG LIMITED Investor Presentation

Performance Highlights Q2 of FY 2024-25

Graphite Electrode (GE)

  • A consumable for Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) for Steel production

  • Used as electrical conductors in Electric Arc Furnaces to generate heat to melt steel scrap

  • High-tech / High Entry Barrier – HEG the last new entrant in the world -1976

  • EAF Steel emits one fourth carbon in the environment as compared to same Steel produced by traditional Blast Furnaces

As per World Steel Association, EAF Steel production (w/o China) has gone up from 44% to 49% between 2015 - 2022 - while China’s production through EAF is around 11% and is likely to go upto around 15-20% by 2025

Industry Outlook

  1. As per WSA, Global crude steel production for the July to Sept. quarter declined by 5.5% to 440.2 mmt compared to the same period last year. On a yearly basis, production for the first nine months decreased by 2%

  2. On a quarterly basis, production from July to Sept 2024 (excluding China) was 202 mmt, compared to 206 mmt during the same period in 2023, a decline of 1.7% year-over-year

  3. Steel production outside of China is constrained by subdued demand and increased pricing pressure as rising Chinese steel exports drive down global prices

  4. Chinese steel exports increased to 80.8 mmt between Jan-Sept period and is expected to hit an eight year high in 2024 to expected to reach 109 mmt as per Macquarie group.

  5. India, the world's second-largest steel producer, experienced growth, with production increasing by 5.5% to 110.3 mmt, driven by government-led infrastructure spending and a resilient automotive sector

  6. China's transition to (EAF) steel production stagnates, leading to an oversupply of Chinese electrodes and price decline.

  7. GE demand remained sluggish, and prices continued to be under pressure for another 1-2 quarters

  8. Expected initiatives for steel industry decarbonization are set to increase demand for graphite electrodes, driven by the adoption of EAF steelmaking , resulting in additional demand of 200,000 tons approx. by 2030 (excl China)

  9. However, considering the irreversible process of decarbonization, we are optimistic about the growth of GE demand in the medium to long run.
