The Special Steels activity is developed by Ramada Aços, Universal Afir and Planfuro Global, which are dedicated to the distribution of special steels, steel for moulds, the production of drawn steel, and to the rendering of services, namely, Machining and Heat Treatment, for two main application areas, namely, metalworking and moulds and tools.

In June 2023, the Group acquired the company Blau Stahl, Lda.

INDUSTRY

Total revenues from the Industry segment in 2023 amounted to 132,723 thousand Euro, recording a decrease of 28.9% compared to total revenues of 2022, as a result of the reduction of prices and activity.

The year 2023, in contrast to 2022, was characterized by a market downturn. The influence of the war on the world economy, particularly the European economy, inflation, successive increases in interest rates, as well as widespread uncertainty over economic and financial issues, combined with a reduction in purchasing power, generated instability in the markets and curbed investment in the industrial equipment and automotive sectors. This macroeconomic context led to a reduction in activity in the sectors in which the Group operates, namely in the moulds and metalworking sectors. The plastic moulds sector saw the biggest reduction.

In 2023, sales of the Special Steels activity to the external market represented 10.0% of the turnover, whereas in 2022, exports represented 7.6% of sales. The Spanish market remained prominent, with significant growth in the German, French and Brazilian markets. The Group continues to focus on export growth and increasing its client portfolio to ensure less dependence on the domestic market in the future.

Despite the slowdown in machining services compared to the previous year, the Group continues to focus on exports, investment in capacity and resources, and increasing the sale of material with services, as determining factors for the growth of this business, both on the conventional and customized side. An example of this was the investment in a milling machine with continuous 5-axis milling capacity. This investment was an important contribution to customized machining services, with a positive impact on exports, while also allowing us to leverage other sectors and diversify sales.

In view of the downturn and market instability, stock and price management were the Group's priorities throughout the year. In terms of raw materials, there was a general drop in prices for all materials, but this was predominantly felt in the area of moulds.

In 2023, the Special Steels activity concluded the installation of two Self-Consumption Production Units with a joint installed solar power of 0.5 MWp (additional to the Self-Consumption Production Unit with a capacity of 1MWp, whose installation was started in the course of 2022).

The Group continues to focus on the development of a Lean culture through the various Kaizen projects carried out over the last 2 years, and the work developed jointly with the Kaizen team. As a result of this commitment, Ramada Aços was recognized in 2023 with an honourable mention in the Analytics category in the 12th Edition of the KAIZEN™ Awards Portugal which, since 2011, distinguish national entities that stand out in the implementation of continuous improvement processes, with results and gains in profitability and growth.

Ramada Aços was also distinguished with the COTEC Innovative Status by COTEC Portugal, Association for Innovation, which aims to recognize companies that combine adequate financial strength, technological investment and investment in innovation to increase competitive potential and economic results, reinforcing the position of the Ramada Group.

In 2023, the Wire Drawing activity registered a decrease in turnover, compared to the previous year, as a result of the contraction of the market, with a significant reduction in demand, but, above all, of the decrease in the average prices practiced in the various products and markets.

The Wire Drawing activity operates essentially for the foreign market, which, in 2023, represented 63.9% of turnover, with emphasis on Spain, the USA and France. In 2022, exports represented 71.3% of turnover.

The Wire Drawing activity started the installation of 1 MWp (additional to the 3 MWp that are already installed), having been completed in July 2023.

EBITDA in the Industry segment amounted to 11,622 thousand Euro, representing a negative variation of 54.5% compared to the 25,539 thousand Euro recorded in 2022. EBITDA margin reached 8.8%, recording a decrease of 4.9 percentage points over 2022.

EBIT, in the amount of 8,429 thousand Euro, recorded a decrease of 62.6% compared to the 22,550 thousand Euro reached in 2022.

The financial results of the Real Estate segment were negative by 1,429 thousand Euro, recording a variance of 219.1% when compared to the negative 448 thousand Euro in 2022, as a result of the increase in the interest expenses due to the evolution of the interest rates.

FUTURE PERSPECTIVES

In 2023, there was a general downturn in the market, marked by price drops and high stocks throughout the distribution chain.

Given the current context of the European economy, high interest rates and the negative commodities cycle, we are preparing for a particularly challenging 2024. We will continue to focus on the profitability of operations and maximizing free cash flow.
