  • © 2020 Nippon Denko Co., Ltd. zXv 3

    1-1. Summary of FY2019Ferroalloys business: Revenues and profits declined due to continuing sluggish conditions in

    international markets for high-carbon ferromanganese products and prices have remained high in manganese ore markets.Manganese ore market prices fell rapidly and dramatically at the end of the year.⇒ Losses arose on revaluation of inventories.

    Functional Materials business: Sales of ferroboron (for amorphous use) decreased dramatically.Sales of zirconium oxide fell due to the economic downturn accompanying US-China trade frictions.With the exception of sales of alloys for hydrogen storage, business conditions were challenging.Sales of certain products ahead of schedule increased sales in the short term.

    Impairment losses were recorded in both the Ferroalloys and Functional Materials businesses.

    Environment business: Sales of Recycling Systems were strong.Incinerator ash processing volumes declined due to expanded inspections and repairs of aging incinerator ash melting furnaces.

    Electric Power business: The No. 3 power plant came online in February 2019, as scheduled.Power generation increased due to higher than average precipitation.

    3-1. Ferroalloys (Crude steel production volumes, high-carbon ferromanganese production volumes)

    ■ Production in Japan

    Crude steel production

    ● 2018: 104.3 mil. tons

    ■ World production● 2018: 1,808.6 mil. tons

    China: Despite setting a new record for production volume, future prospects remain uncertain due to trade fictions with the US and a slowing domestic economy.

    India: While production is up YoY on a calendar-year basis, production appears to have slowed recently.Europe: Down YoY due to factors such as decreased auto demand due to US-China trade frictions, although

    the downward trend showed recent signs of bottoming out.

    High-carbon ferromanganese

    Due to increased production in India and elsewhere, supply remained largely unchanged YoY despite reduced production by major producers in Europe.

    ● 2018: 4.43 mil. tons

    ■ World production

    ● 2019: 1,869.9 mil. tons

    ● 2019: 4.44 mil. tons

    ● 2019: 99.28 mil. tons(Down 5% YoY)

    3-1. Ferroalloys (Outlook for 2020)

    ●2020: 1. Domestic demand for HCFeMn will decrease slightly from 2019.

    Outlook for 2020

    Domestic production of crude steel is projected to remain below 100 mil. tons. However, demand for higher quality steel will remain strong.

    2. Sales will decrease due to a slowing HCFeMn market.Although these sales declined throughout 2019, they have trended up since the end of 2019.

    3. Production costs will decrease due to falling raw material costs and other factors

    Production costs will decrease due to the effects of falling market prices last year and other factors.

    Manganese ore ($/Mn%, right axis)

    • Acquired manganese mining (Kudumane mining) interests in South Africa in June 2013 and began mining operations.

    • Began full-scale shipping to China in August 2013.• The Company receives Kudumane ore each year.• We acquired new mining operation interests in November 2016.

    Commercial production began in November 2018.• We will strive to balance earnings across the entire Mn business by responding to fluctuations in

    ferroalloy conditions and ore prices.

    Contributing to Company profits

    since 2017

    ⇒ Since reaching $8.90 in April 2018, prices have continued to trend downward, briefly reaching $3.90 due to reduced crude steel production in China in the autumn and winter. Recent signs point a potential rebound.
