Refer Slide 3 attached at foot of address

I thought I might commence my address with a short overview of the Magontec business. It is important that shareholders and the wider investment community understand how the Company is structured and the nature of the business that we are engaged in.

Magontec is a magnesium processing company. We buy pure magnesium and manufacture magnesium alloy ingots and other downstream magnesium products.

The Company manufactures two principal products, magnesium alloy ingots, which we supply to diecasting companies, and magnesium anodes, which we supply to water heater companies.

Magnesium diecasting companies often return scrap produced in their manufacturing processes to Magontec plants in Europe and China for recycling.

Our biggest customers are in the automotive industry, where magnesium is used to manufacture applications such as steering wheels and car-door frames, and manufacturers of water heaters, who use magnesium anodes to protect steel and enamel water tanks from the effects of corrosion.

Refer Slide 4 attached at foot of address

I have shown this slide before and I think it gives an excellent overview of our business.

Magontec operates in four countries with manufacturing operations in China, Germany and Romania and its head office in Australia.

It is among the largest producers of magnesium alloys in the World and by some margin the largest and most successful magnesium alloy recycler in Europe.

We are also a global supplier of magnesium anodes with manufacturing and sales operations in China and Europe.

Our Chinese primary magnesium alloy production, currently centred on a facility in Shanxi Province, is very much the focus of our attentions.

In 2015 we will construct and partially commission a new 56,000 metric tonne per annum cast house facility at Golmud in Qinghai Province.

This facility is expected to transform the operating economics of our primary magnesium alloy business and allow Magontec to compete in global magnesium alloy markets with a very competitive product.

Refer Slide 5 attached at foot of address

The magnesium industry is currently dominated by many small operators and uses a manufacturing process that is environmentally extremely toxic.

The opportunity for Magontec has been to transform itself, to become an environmental champion and a price leader in a niche industry that is the process of change.

In the four years since the Magontec assets were acquired the underlying business has been transformed.

• We have negotiated and executed a long term agreement with the

Qinghai Salt Lake Co Ltd that will deliver a consistent flow of raw material at a competitive price;

• We have raised over A$17 million to enable us to construct the cast house in Qinghai and

• We have undertaken a wholesale renewal of the downstream assets of the business in magnesium recycling and magnesium anode manufacturing.

Refer Slide 6 attached at foot of address

The first and most important leg of our strategy was to identify and secure a raw material source that would address the environmental shortcomings of our industry.

Our agreements with the Qinghai Salt Lake Co Ltd will comprehensively deliver this objective.

The second leg of our strategy was to ensure that our downstream recycling and anode manufacturing businesses were able to cope with the new volume of primary metal and to be profitable in their own right.

We are well on the way to achieving this goal having expanded capacity and reduced conversion costs in Germany and Romania in the last 12 months.

Both these plants are now operating profitably and have the capacity to grow further in the years ahead as opportunities present.

Refer Slide 7 attached at foot of address

I now want to move on to the results for the 2014 financial year and for the first quarter of 2015.

Refer Slide 8 attached at foot of address

In each of the last three years Magontec has enjoyed modest revenue growth.

While top line growth is not an end in itself it emphasises two things

• That we have maintained our market share, even as conditions in the Chinese domestic markets have deteriorated, and

• That the Magontec magnesium alloy business is well positioned to take advantage of the opportunities that our new facility in Qinghai will offer.

Refer Slide 9 attached at foot of address

Our underlying operating results are often obscured by fluctuations in rates of foreign exchange. In this chart we show Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) in the 2014 financial year compared with 2013.

• The Romanian recycling business made a full year contribution and while lower anode volumes saw the European business fall short of it budget it experienced a much improved result in 2014

• In China the impact of the closure of the Suzhou facility had a cumulative A$1m negative impact on earnings significantly reducing profitability.

Other trends emerged in 2014 that will likely continue into 2015. Falling demand from the electronics sector will reduce Chinese domestic demand for magnesium alloys while improved competitiveness in all of our businesses makes the company more resilient and potentially more profitable.

Refer Slide 10 attached at foot of address

One area where we have made great strides in the last 18 months has been in the European recycling business. Magontec is emerging as an important partner for European die casting companies.

We are the only European recycler building new capacity and offering increasingly competitive prices. In 2015 capacity in Romania will rise to nearly

10,000 mt per annum, from 3,500 mtpa in 2013, while in Germany capacity will be only modestly higher but much more competitive.

Our success in European recycling stems from strategic initiatives adopted in 2012 to invest in automation and manufacturing processes to raising barriers to entry.

Magontec operates in a small industry where the competition generally comprises small and capital constrained businesses or larger diversified businesses.

Our competitive advantage is that we are focussed on the magnesium industry exclusively and offer increasingly competitive prices and access to higher volumes across the product range.

Refer Slide 11 attached at foot of address

Here is a snapshot of our first quarter result showing a modest Net Profit After Tax of $251 thousand dollars from our existing operations in the three months to 31 March 2015.

I do not extrapolate this for the full year, as we are a seasonal business in some sectors, and nor do I claim that that we have overcome our many challenges.

However this result does emphasise that

• Our European recycling business is now on a strong upward trajectory and

• We have begun to address underlying competitiveness issues in our other businesses.

Refer Slide 12 attached at foot of address

So, in summary for 2015 we see

• Scope for further improvement in our recycling businesses in Europe

• Potential for volume gains in the anodes business which will have a positive impact on profitability in those activities

• Steady to growing demand from regional Asian magnesium alloy customers, particularly in Japan, and

• A flat to negative outlook for Chinese domestic magnesium alloy and recycling demand.

Refer Slide 13 attached at foot of address

I want to turn now to the Qinghai project as this is the focus of so much of our attention at this time and will become the company’s largest and most important asset when it commences production.

Refer Slide 14 attached at foot of address

Just to re-cap on this project.

In May 2014 we signed three agreements that

• Established the current and future basis for working with Qinghai Salt Lake Co

• Established the price at which liquid pure magnesium would be delivered by Qinghai Salt Lake Co to Magontec, and

• Established the basis upon which Magontec would lease space in the Qinghai cast house building for the installation of its four casting lines.

These are the foundation documents for the future prosperity of Magontec and provide the company with exclusive access to this raw material source.

Refer Slide 15 attached at foot of address

As most shareholders will know already, the Qinghai project exploits a magnesium-rich liquid tailings resource adjacent to a 100,000 metric tonne per annum electrolytic magnesium production plant that is being constructed by Qinghai Salt Lake Magnesium Co.

Magontec will invest A$11 million in four magnesium alloy casting lines to process the pure magnesium produced by this plant, the first electrolytic plant built in China and one of the largest ever constructed.

Refer Slide 16 attached at foot of address

Here is a schematic of the plant showing,

• At the top the two 50,000 mtpa dehydration plants that are now close to completion

• In the middle the reduction or electrolytic cell-house where magnesium will be extracted, and

• At the bottom the cast house where there are seven casting lines being installed, three by Qinghai Salt Lake Co for the production of pure magnesium and four by Magontec for the production of magnesium alloys.

Refer Slide 17 attached at foot of address

The installation of the first magnesium alloy casting line is now completed and hot commissioning will take place in the next few weeks.

This first line will have a capacity of around 14,000 mtpa

Subsequent production lines will be installed through to the end of the year and will have a final capacity of 56,000 mtpa.

The critical factor in the installation process is the commissioning schedule for the considerably more complicated dehydration and reduction facilities. Qinghai Salt Lake Co has indicated that they will be in a position to start initial production in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Refer Slide 18 attached at foot of address

As we go through this very testing time it is worth reflecting on the fact that we will be producing not only a very competitively priced product but also the most environmentally sound magnesium alloy ever supplied to global markets.

This chart comes from the German Aerospace Institute of Vehicle Concepts and compares CO2 production at Magontec’s future Qinghai production with other production in China and elsewhere around the World.

When production commences at Qinghai, Magontec will have a very compelling environmental story to tell. Our customers in the automotive industry are particularly interested in this aspect of our new project.

Refer Slide 19 attached at foot of address

To close I want to touch briefly on research and development.

The history of this company has been very closely associated with new technology magnesium alloys and processes and research and development continues to be an important part of our company, but not as central to the business case as it once was.

Refer Slide 20 attached at foot of address

Today our research effort is considerably more broadly spread and much more closely linked with our customers. We do not seek to pursue a new alloy or other technology unless a commercial end use can be demonstrated.

Furthermore our R&D focus is not just on magnesium alloys but also on corrosion protection technologies. Both magnesium and electronic anodes have a place in the future of corrosion protection for water heaters and for other liquid containers where corrosion must be addressed.

Over the last 18 months we have expanded our basic corrosion protection model to include more complex electronics and to address new customer groups. These efforts are in their early days and we will discuss them in greater detail in future commentaries.

Refer Slide 21 attached at foot of address

Our big focus at the current time is the development and commercialisation of a rare earth rich magnesium alloy.

We have an on-going project funded in part by the Australian Government, by industry partners, by universities in Australia and Germany and by Magontec. The total investment will be in the order of A$1.4 million over three years.

Refer Slide 22 attached at foot of address

The objective of the project is primarily to develop alloys that will address the critical concerns of our industrial research partners Audi and Stihl.

In common with many automotive companies Audi is seeking lighter structures to improve fuel efficiency. Structural magnesium components are in their infancy in the automotive world and limited to 5[th] -door frames in high-end models. This research looks at moving the structural application forward into the cabin area, considerably raising the potential volume of magnesium usage.

Stihl, as every gardener knows, makes hand held power tools and is seeking, through this program, to find more opportunities to use lightweight magnesium in place of heavier metals such as aluminium.

Refer Slide 23 attached at foot of address

Early results have shown that the Magontec patented rare earth alloys have characteristics that make them candidate alloys in other industries.

A highly prospective application is for mobile phone towers where lightweight and high thermal conductivity are key criteria.

Refer Slide 24 attached at foot of address

As we enter the middle of 2015 Magontec looks forward to a very busy and productive schedule.

Existing businesses are experiencing improved profitability as a result of the actions taken by management over the last two years.

The Qinghai cast house installation program has commenced and our partners at Qinghai Salt Lake Co expect to be supplying liquid pure magnesium to the Magontec Qinghai cast house by the end of 2015.

Furthermore Magontec increasingly enjoys the growing confidence of its customer base as the business has stabilised and begun to grow again in recent months. We are winning new customers on a regular basis.

Perhaps most importantly Magontec employs 450 people around the World in a motivated and stable workforce.

Our employees are highly resourceful and committed to Magontec and have been fundamental to the transformation of the company over the last two years.
