Sims provides Underlying EBIT guidance of $750 million to $770 million for FY22

Sims Limited (“Sims” or “The Company”) today provided guidance in relation to its FY22 financial results.

Consistent with the strong FY22 outlook provided at the Macquarie Conference on 5th May, Underlying EBIT for the year ended 30 June 2022 is expected to be in the range of $750 million to $770 million. It is worth noting that there are shipments scheduled to occur close to the year end and, in accordance with revenue recognition policies, this has the potential to impact whether EBIT is attributed to FY22 or FY23.

High metal prices and improved metal volumes have provided the main drivers of improvement over the FY21 result.

Alistair Field, CEO and Managing Director of Sims Limited, commenting on the announcement, said “our strategy has, to date, served us well in navigating the challenging price volatility experienced in the second half of FY22. Due to geopolitical and economic uncertainty and the associated volatility, we expect these challenging conditions to remain as we move into the first quarter of FY23.

“We are also closely managing the impacts of freight and logistics volatility, and actively seeking medium-term efficiency gains to assist in mitigating inflationary cost pressures across the Company.”

Authorised for release by: The Company Secretary, Gretchen Johanns.
