power agreement to improve the cost competitiveness of the Spanish
plants
- Favorable U.S. policies continue to
benefit Ferroglobe
- Implementing a capital allocation
policy with details to be announced in the first quarter
“The company continued to perform well in a
difficult market environment,” commented Dr. Marco Levi,
Ferroglobe’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our strong EBITDA of $104
million benefited from our proactive energy agreements, strong
operating efficiency and effective energy management at our plants.
Overall, our operations in all regions continue to perform at a
high level amid the global uncertainty and tepid end markets.
“The high-quality quartz mine that we acquired
in South Carolina positions us to take advantage of the shift
toward increased production and adoption of solar panels and
lithium-ion EV batteries in the U.S. in the coming years. Recently,
there has been weakness in these end markets; however, we continue
to believe the long-term growth story is intact.
“We reiterate our guidance for full year
adjusted EBITDA of $270 to $300 million,” concluded Dr. Levi.

Sales
Ferroglobe reported third quarter net sales of
$417 million, a decrease of 9% over the prior quarter and a
decrease of 30% over Q3-22. The $40 million decrease in sales over
the prior quarter was primarily driven by manganese-based alloys,
which accounted for $19 million of the decrease, and silicon-based
alloys, which accounted for $18 million, partially offset by
silicon metal, which increased by $3 million.
Raw materials and energy consumption for
production
Raw materials and energy consumption for
production was $196 million in the third quarter of 2023 versus
$253 million in the prior quarter, a decrease of 22%. As a
percentage of sales, raw materials and energy consumption for
production improved to 47% in the third quarter of 2023 versus 55%
in the prior quarter. Excluding the PPA impact, raw materials and
energy consumption for production was 50% of sales in the second
quarter.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to the
Parent
In the third quarter, net income attributable to
the parent was $41 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to
$32 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the second quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter was $104
million, down 1% over the second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin
was 25% in the third quarter, up from 23% in the second
quarter.
Total Cash
The total cash balance was $166 million as of
September 30, 2023, down $197 million from $363 million as of June
30, 2023. The decline was primarily due to the $150 million partial
redemption of the 9 3/8% Senior Secured Notes on July 31, 2023.
During the third quarter, operating cash flow
was negative $9 million, cash flow from investing activities was
negative $19 million, and cash flow from financing activities was
negative $170 million. The significant negative cash flow from
financing activities was primarily due to the redemption of the
senior secured notes in July.
Total Working Capital
Total working capital was $510 million at
September 30, 2023 versus $475 million at June 30, 2023. The $35
million increase in working capital during the quarter was
primarily due to a decrease in trade and other payables of $25
million and an increase in trade and other receivables of $11
million.
Beatriz García-Cos, Ferroglobe’s Chief Financial
Officer, commented, “During the quarter, we continued deleveraging
our balance sheet by reducing our gross debt to $237 million, down
from $400 million in the prior quarter, which was a result of
redeeming $150 million of our 9 3/8% senior secured notes. This
redemption saves us approximately $14 million in annual interest
expenses.
“As we commented last quarter, we expect to
build inventory in preparation for the gradual idling of our French
operations toward the end of the fourth quarter as planned, as we
optimize our energy costs. The French plants are scheduled to be
idle during the first quarter,” concluded Mrs.
Garcia-Cos.

Silicon metal revenue in the third quarter was $199 million, an
increase of 1.7% over the prior quarter. Average realized prices
declined 9.7%, driven by lower market index pricing in the U.S. and
Europe. Volumes increased 12.6% over the prior quarter as a result
of strong shipments in North America. Adjusted EBITDA for this
segment was $81 million, approximately flat versus the prior
quarter and adjusted EBITDA margin was 41%, down slightly from the
second quarter. An improvement in costs was primarily attributable
to the higher energy compensation, offsetting the price
declines.

Manganese-based alloy revenue in the third
quarter was $59 million, a decrease of 24.5% over the prior
quarter. Average realized selling prices decreased by 16.2% linked
to continued index price declines while total shipments decreased
9.9%. Adjusted EBITDA for the manganese-based alloys portfolio
increased to $11 million in the third quarter versus $1 million for
the prior quarter. EBITDA margin in the quarter increased as costs
were positively impacted by higher energy and CO2 compensation in
France and lower manganese ore prices.
Subsequent Events
Acquisition of a strategic high-quality
quartz mine in the U.S.
On October 27, 2023, the company announced that
it had acquired a high-quality quartz mine in the U.S. for
approximately $11 million. The South Carolina mine has the capacity
to produce more than 300kt of quartz per year, with more than ten
years of reserve life. It is located near a rail line with a lower
cost of production than Ferroglobe’s existing quartz operations in
Alabama. Production is expected to begin in the second half of
2024.
This acquisition helps ensure that Ferroglobe
has access to this critical material, enabling it to meet the
increasing demand for high-quality silicon metal, while its
proximity to our operations secures the long-term competitiveness
of our US footprint.

Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of U.S. securities laws.
Forward-looking statements are not historical facts but are based
on certain assumptions of management and describe the Company’s
future plans, strategies and expectations. Forward-looking
statements often use forward-looking terminology, including words
such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “could”, “estimate”, “expect”,
“forecast”, “guidance”, “intends”, “likely”, “may”, “plan”,
“potential”, “predicts”, “seek”, “target”, “will” and words of
similar meaning or the negative thereof.
Forward-looking statements contained in this
press release are based on information currently available to the
Company and assumptions that management believe to be reasonable,
but are inherently uncertain. As a result, Ferroglobe’s actual
results, performance or achievements may differ materially from
those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements,
which are not guarantees of future performance and involve known
and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are, in
some cases, beyond the Company’s control.
Forward-looking financial information and other
metrics presented herein represent the Company’s goals and are not
intended as guidance or projections for the periods referenced
herein or any future periods.
All information in this press release is as of
the date of its release. Ferroglobe does not undertake any
obligation to update publicly any of the forward-looking statements
contained herein to reflect new information, events or
circumstances arising after the date of this press release. You
should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements,
which are made only as of the date of this press release.
Non-IFRS Measures
This document may contain summarized,
non-audited or non-GAAP financial information. The information
contained herein should therefore be considered as a whole and in
conjunction with all the public information regarding the Company
available, including any other documents released by the Company
that may contain more detailed information. Adjusted EBITDA,
adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of sales, working capital as a
percentage of sales, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net profit,
adjusted profit per share, working capital, adjusted gross debt and
net debt, are non-IFRS financial metrics that management uses in
its decision making. Ferroglobe has included these financial
metrics to provide supplemental measures of its performance. The
Company believes these metrics are important and useful to
investors because they eliminate items that have less bearing on
the Company’s current and future operating performance and
highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be
apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial
measures.INVESTOR CONTACT:
