Eurozone: Improvement amid positive general conditions

Real GDP growth in %, qoq Real GDP growth in %, qoq

In detail

Sources: Eurostat, IKB research (seasonally adjusted )

4

We see signs of a further stabilization in the eurozone. The

growth rate was significantly higher in the fourth quarter of

2014 and GDP improvement could be observed in most

countries. Only Italy (0.0 %) and France (0.1 %) lagged

behind

Therefore, IKB forecasts GDP growth of 1.3 % for the

eurozone in total

The depreciation of the Euro, lower oil prices and low interest

rates should stimulate growth in the eurozone going forward

Changing light vehicle material mix 6

Increasing requirements for energy efficiency

and stronger emission regulations will support

the trend towards lightweight production in the

upcoming two decades

The biggest loser concerning the change of

material application is conventional steel. In

the future, only about one fifth of the total

materials used will be conventional steel.

Another fifth will be accounted for by high-

tensile steel

The light metals aluminum and magnesium

will significantly gain in importance

Another fifth will be made up by plastics and

composites, of which however only a small

share is attributable to carbon fibers, mainly

used in luxury class

Globally, we expect a strong increase in demand for mechanical engineering products

In 2016, revenues of China will surpass the sum of both North America and rest of Asia taken together

In Europe, Germany and Italy gain market shares to the detriment of other Western European countries

As in the automotive industry, trends towards lightweighting and higher flexibility in robotics & machine tools increase the use of aluminum

Construction sector: Improvement in the US, China still strong

Global construction & engineering industry; in US-$ bn

Total construction volume in selected countries; in €m

Boom through urbanization

Sources: ifo; MARKETLINE; Worldbank

The US construction industry is expected to see a strong increase

in construction starts

Today, more than half of the Chinese population lives in rural

areas. Further migratory movements into urban regions are

expected during the next ten years

The construction sector in the European Union is also likely to

revitalize. Eastern European EU members are likely to show

significantly higher growth compared to Western European

countries. Even the Spanish construction industry seems to show a

slight recovery after years of significant decline

In detail

After the drop of the Spanish economy in 2007, not least because of the

plummeting construction industry, the EST casting production decreased

as well (particularly in construction-related segments)

Based on the slight recovery in 2013, we are expecting a moderate rise of

casting tonnage until 2018

In total, a constant change of the casting production from grey cast to more

complex material groups such as spheroidal graphite iron was observed.

This is mainly caused by mechanical engineering and vehicle

manufacturing

During the past ten years, a strong consolidation wave took place in the

Spanish foundry market

Thus the average output per foundry rose; nevertheless reaches only three

quarters of the German comparison value

Strategic challenges of the global foundry industry

Globalization

Major part of the demand growth will occur in emerging markets

Especially the automotive industry is increasingly demanding local presence outside of Europe

Increases the need for a global footprint

Technological

leadership

Maintaining the technological leadership is of great importance for European foundries

Pressure on unit weights will continue

This changes the material mix and increases the requirements for the alloy competence

Retain qualified

personnel

Many qualified foundry workers will retire during the next years

Competition for staff intensifies due to changing age structure

Requires new worker loyalty programs (pension schemes, profit-sharing, flexibility regarding family & job)

Investment

requirements

Growing trend towards completely finished cast parts will necessitate respective investments

Complexity of foundry materials will grow and consequently drive investment requirements

Globalizing market requires increased investments in logistics processes

Margin pressure

Growing international competition in the vehicle manufacturing industry

This limits the possibility of passing on cost increases to end consumers

On the part of OEMs this pressure could be passed through to suppliers

Industry

consolidation

Thus the industry consolidation is expected to continue

Main reasons, besides the pressure for globalization, are increasing investment requirements

Also, many family businesses face succession-related problems from our point of view

The global foundry industry will face rising investment requirements. Together with succession-related problems in mid-

sized companies, this might increase industry consolidation

Sales development influenced by drop of raw material prices

Sales development in an international comparison In detail

The global foundry industry was able to expand its tonnage;

however, the drop of raw material prices, given a material use of

on average half of total output, prevented a respective sales

increase

At the beginning of 2011, the price per ton of aluminum alloy at the

LME was 2,275 US$/t, in 2013 it was only 1,790 US$/t

Drop of about 21%

Prices for old steel scrap (type 1) declined from on average

342.50 €/t in January 2011 to 250 €/t in December 2013

Drop of about 27%

Therefore, the sales drop of German and international foundries is

relativized

The expansion of casting tonnage was accompanied by a price drop for raw materials, effectively preventing a respective

sales increase

Material expenses decline

Material cost ratio in an international comparison In detail

German foundries saw a significant reduction of their material cost

ratio, from 49% to 44.5%, during the observation period 2011 to

2013. Together with the slightly increased personnel expenses

ratio, this indicates a higher added value of foundries

Given growing supply of completely finished and ready-to-install

parts, as e.g. in the automotive industry, foundry companies can

increasingly strengthen their position in the value chain

European foundries achieved a slight drop of their material cost

ratio, from 54% to 52% of sales. Several foundries in Eastern

Europe are even above this value, which indicates outsourcing of

simple cast parts without great complexity

For Asian foundries, material expenses only changed marginally

during the observation period. However, identification of energy

costs is not always straightforward from annual reports of Asian

foundries

Declining material expenses indicate a higher added value for many foundries, particularly in Western Europe. This in turn

improves the long-term positioning in the value chain

In detail

The personnel expenses ratio predominantly increased across all

regions, except for Asia, where it rather stagnated

However, personnel expenses are in general significantly lower in

Asian countries. Note that our selection comprises primarily

Chinese and Indian foundries. In Japan, expenses are comparable

to German levels

Further increasing personnel expenses are expected in emerging

markets going forward

Despite the crisis in the Euro-zone, rising personnel expenses

ratios were observed within Europe. The ratio rose from 18% to

19% between 2011 and 2013. Differences can be seen between

Western and Eastern European states. In spite of increasing

salaries, personnel expenses ratios in the latter region remained

considerably lower

In Germany, personnel expenses rose from c. 21.5% to 26%. The

gap between Western and Eastern German foundries reduced

In the medium-term, personnel expenses in Asian emerging markets are forecasted to increase further

EBITDA: Profitability under pressure

EBITDA margin in an international comparison In detail

Profitability of foundries tended to decrease during the observation

period. Despite the reduction of material expenses in all regions,

this was not sufficient for a noteworthy improvement of earnings

Asian foundries experienced the largest decline. While their

operating profitability, as measured by EBITDA, was considerably

higher than the comparison values of German and European

foundries in recent years, foundries from all observed regions are

now on average on a comparable level

Reasons for the low profitability are on the one hand increasing

pricing pressure of the leading customer industry, vehicle

manufacturing, and on the other hand overcapacities in individual

sub-segments

Sub-segments with particularly high overcapacities were:

a) Construction-related casting applications in Southern

European countries

b) Castings for wind turbine components, especially for offshore

plants. Here, not only the planned commissioning dates were

pushed back, also the overall market expectations were

revised downwards relative to previous forecasts

Pricing pressure of customer industries recently increased

Divergent capital base

Equity ratio in an international comparison In detail

German foundries experienced a declining capital base primarily

caused by increasing investments between 2011 and 2013

European foundries outside of Germany on the other hand were

able to stabilize their capital base. However, this was also due to a

scaling back of investments, partly caused by limited access to

loans in Southern Europe. This in turn could lead to a degradation

of the companies’ competitive positions in the medium- to long-

term

Asian foundries on the contrary were able to increase their capital

base. In this context, relevant companies profited from various

subsidies and tax incentives

Asian foundries profit from subsidization and overall good market environment

Conclusion

28

The global foundry industry is set to profit from strong growth of key customer industries

during the next years

Asia is expected to outgrow the general market even in the medium- to long-term

Competitive pressure from other technologies e.g. forging or sheet metal forming is expected

to remain strong; however, especially for structural components in light vehicles we see a

trend towards casting technologies

In Europe, we expect higher growth rates for aluminium foundries compared to iron, ductile

iron and steel foundries. In Germany, an aluminium casting production of around 1.2 million

tons is possible until 2020

The profitability, as measured by EBITDA margin, globally declined during the last years due

to increased pressure from customer industries. Asian foundries with higher capital base, not

least resulting from various forms of subsidies

During the next years we forecast an ongoing consolidation process in the global foundry

industry
