  • First-ever SinterCast-CGI trial in India successfully concluded at DCM Engineering foundry

Following annualised production of approximately 400,000 Engine Equivalents during the first seven months of 2009, series production climbed rapidly to 500,000 Engine Equivalents in September, resulting from the start of production of two new programmes.

Current Production and Outlook

Although the existing series production programmes have not yet begun to show any significant signs of recovery, the total production volume has increased as a result of the launch of two new programmes: the Ford 6.7 litre V8 in North America and another new exhaust component at the Dashiang Precision foundry in China. The Ford Power Stroke® diesel engine, based on a SinterCast-CGI cylinder block, was introduced by Ford on 31 August and officially launched in the new F-Series Super Duty® trucks on 24 September. The state-of-theart engine is the first CGI engine to be launched in the high volume North American pick-up truck sector. The growth in series production at the Dashiang Precision foundry in China is based on the launch of another new high volume exhaust component, produced for the export market. Dashiang currently produces four different SinterCast-CGI exhaust components.

Production of the Ford Power Stroke® diesel engine began at the Tupy foundry in Brazil during mid-2008 and has already grown to become SinterCast's second largest production programme. The Power Stroke® diesel is the first engine that SinterCast has participated in as a replacement programme for an existing engine. As such, the ramp-up is expected to be faster than previous programmes. Based on historical sales of F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 vehicles, where more than two-thirds of all vehicles are specified with a diesel engine, the new V8 provides the potential for more than 400,000 Engine Equivalents per year at full volume. During the introduction of the new engine, Ford specifically stated that the use of a CGI cylinder block enabled a weight reduction of 70 kg (160 pounds) in the total engine weight, despite the displacement increase from 6.4 to 6.7 litres.

Also during the period, SinterCast conducted its first ever CGI production trial in India. The trial was successfully conducted at the DCM Engineering foundry, India's largest independent cylinder block and head foundry. The trial was commissioned by DCM in response to customer demand for CGI engine components as new road infrastructure and more stringent emissions increase the demand for improved engine performance in India. Following the trial, SinterCast-CGI prototype cylinder blocks, weighing from 40 to 175 kg, were delivered to passenger vehicle and commercial vehicle OEMs in the domestic market. DCM is also in dialogue with OEMs regarding the potential to export high quality Compacted Graphite Iron castings.

Based on the current production programmes and the potential market recovery 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.

During July-September 2009, revenue amounted to SEK 5.2 million (SEK 6.0 million). The revenue represents 87% of the 3Q 2008 revenue, which was the last full quarter before the impact of the global economic downturn. Series production revenue was SEK 4.5 million (SEK 4.7 million), mainly due to the shipment of 15,400 (16,500) Sampling Cups.

During January-September, revenue amounted to SEK 14.5 million, representing 83% of the corresponding period in 2008 (SEK 17.4 million). The decreased revenue for the period results mainly from the decreased series production among foundry customers. A total of 36,000 (44,000) Sampling Cups were sold during the period. Equipment revenue for the period was SEK 2.3 million (SEK 2.4 million) and is primarily related to the Mini-System 2000 installation at the Luitpoldhütte foundry in Germany and the hardware upgrade/expansion at the Tupy foundry in Brazil.

Result

The July-September 2009 operating result of SEK -1.5 million is SEK 1.1 million lower than the same period 2008, primarily affected by depreciation (selected patents near the end of lifetime allowed to lapse) and by the reduced costs associated with the employee stock option programme 2006-2010 during 3Q 2008.

July-September 2009 2008 Difference
Depreciation 0.9 0.2 0.7
Employee Stock Option Programme 2006-2010 0.2 -0.6 0.8

The result for the July-September 2009 period amounted to SEK 10.1 million (SEK -0.4 million), primarily related to the revaluation of the deferred tax asset, as described in the section entitled "Deferred Tax Asset".

The operating result for the year-to-date January-September 2009 period amounted to SEK -5.2 million and is SEK 0.7 million lower than the same period 2008. The lower result for the year-to-date period is likewise primarily related to higher depreciation (patent lapses) and to revaluation differences related to the employee stock option programme 2006-2010.

January-September 2009 2008 Difference
Depreciation 1.3 0.9 0.4
Employee Stock Option Programme 2006-2010 0.7 0.3 0.4

The result for the year-to-date period amounted to SEK -1.6 million (SEK 18.1 million), primarily related to revaluation differences of the deferred tax asset, by SEK 19.7 million, as described in the "Deferred Tax Asset" section.

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.

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. This reassessment reflects the indication that the underlying automotive demand has stabilised, as described in SinterCast's 2Q Report. As of 30 September 2009, SEK 80.3 million (13.5%) of SinterCast's total carried-forward tax losses have been used as the basis of the updated calculation, resulting in SEK 21.1 million being capitalised as a deferred tax asset.

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

Employee Stock Option Programme

As of 30 September 2009, the cost of the existing employee stock option programme 2006-2010 was calculated at a total amount of SEK 3.2 million (SEK 3.7 million as of 30 September 2008), based on a closing share price of SEK 60 on 30 September 2009 (SEK 103). During 2009, SEK 0.7 million (SEK 0.4 million) was accounted for as costs related to the option programme.

The Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders approved a new 2009-2013 employee stock option programme on 20 August 2009, to begin during 4Q 2009. The maximum number of stock options to be allotted to the employees will be 285,000. According to the IFRS 2 accounting standard, the employee stock options should be expensed as a personnel cost during the period and reported directly against equity capital. The recorded IFRS 2 cost for employee stock options will amount to approximately SEK 1.8 million during the period 2009-2013. Assuming that all options will be realised at the maximum ceiling of SEK 50, the social security costs are expected to amount to approximately SEK 3.0 million, expensed continuously during the period in which they are incurred. Costs for the option programme 2009-2013 will be accounted for in 4Q 2009.

Cashflow, Liquidity and Investments

The new rights issue has provided a net cash injection of SEK 18.4 million, securing the Company's liquidity. Current liquidity is SEK 26.7 million, with the prospect of in additional SEK 11.6 million being raised during September 2010 from the warrants related to the new rights issue. The July-September 2009 cashflow result was SEK 17.6 million (SEK -2.9 million), providing a Group liquidity of SEK 26.7 million on 30 September 2009 (SEK 8.8 million). The January-September 2009 cashflow result was SEK 17.7 million (SEK -7.5 million). The Sörmland Sparbank loan in the amount of SEK 3.0 million is due for review during December 2009. According to its terms, the loan may be called for repayment during December 2009. Investments during the period amounted to SEK 1.2 million (SEK 0.0 million).

Risks and Uncertainty Factors; Global Economic Crisis

Market Development

The main uncertainty factor for SinterCast is the 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 resulted in significant reductions in demand in both the passenger vehicle and commercial vehicle sectors, causing automotive OEMs to reduce production and, in some cases, delay production launches. 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 4.1 million Engine Equivalents. This reduction of approximately 25% is better than the overall automotive market decline of 40~60% during the same period, primarily because the launch of new SinterCast-CGI components has provided incremental volumes. It is also noted that SinterCast's production of components other than automotive cylinder blocks and heads has not decreased as significantly as the core cylinder block and head sector, thus providing a compensating effect on the overall series production volume. While SinterCast continues to support new product development activities, and anticipates new production launches and 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 expense budgets, and has implemented a pro-active liquidity protection plan that has included personnel reductions. While the Company believes that new installation opportunities can provide cash injections to further reinforce the liquidity, and that new series production launches can provide a positive contribution to production volumes and revenues, the timing of the overall recovery in the automotive and foundry industries remains uncertain. The current series production volume of approximately 500,000 Engine Equivalents is insufficient to provide positive cashflow. In consideration of all factors, the Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interest of the shareholders to proceed with a new rights issue, which was approved by an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Shareholders on 20 August 2009, and has since resulted in a net cash injection of SEK 18.4 million with the prospect of an additional SEK 11.6 million being raised during September 2010 from the warrants related to the new rights issue. The rights issue ensures the long-term liquidity of the Company and enables the Company to be more pro-active in its operations in advance of the market recovery.

Market Penetration and Competition

Virtually every company encounters competition, and SinterCast is no exception. However, based on SinterCast's pioneering and 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 in the industry. 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 end-users. SinterCast judges that it's 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 cylinder block and head 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.
