Subhrakant Panda, Managing Director said: “IMFA delivered a robust operational and financial performance on the back of firm ferro chrome prices and sharp focus on operational efficiency. Despite uncertainty due to the geopolitical situation, the Company drew on a strong Balance Sheet to pursue growth through a strategic acquisition alongside the greenfield project. Ferro Chrome output will reach an annualised level of 5 lakh tpa by the end of the calendar year, backed by 10 lakh tonnes of chrome ore raising in FY27 which is in itself a momentous milestone. Simultaneously, we are pivoting to renewable energy which will account for ~40% of the energy mix next fiscal.

The long term trend for stainless steel remains firm, and we are ideally positioned to cater to rising per capita domestic consumption. Moreover, while the primary focus is on the core business, we are exploring opportunities especially in the critical minerals space which will provide impetus to our growth trajectory.”

Iron & Steel Products company Indian Metals & Ferro Alloys announced Q2FY26 results

  • Revenue: Rs 718.65 crore compared to Rs 691.92 crore during Q2FY25.
  • EBITDA: Rs 138.34 crore compared to Rs 170.51 crore during Q2FY25.
  • PAT: Rs 98.77 crore compared to Rs 125.72 crore during Q2FY25.
  • Exports: Rs 603.96 crore compared to Rs 652.97 crore during Q2FY25.

Subhrakant Panda, Managing Director, IMFA, said: “I am delighted to announce this transformational acquisition which will fast track our expansion plans. Along with our ongoing greenfield expansion, it will take total installed capacity beyond 0.5 million tonnes enabling us to increase our market share with a particular focus on domestic sales at a time when demand for ferro chrome is increasing due to India’s rapid economic growth.”

“We are committed to creating value for stakeholders and, building on the strong foundation of a fully integrated business model, will work to realise cost savings and operational synergies which will have a positive impact on the bottom line. Further, the acquisition is being funded from internal accruals which speaks to the strength of the Balance Sheet.”

“Ferro Chrome prices moved up noticeably towards the end of the second quarter due to elevated chrome ore costs for non-integrated producers and a sharp cutback in output in South Africa. This is partially reflected in the current results, and we expect to see the full impact in the ongoing quarter with the increase in benchmark as well as higher spot prices.”

Iron & Steel Products company Indian Metals & Ferro Alloys announced Q3FY25 results

  • Revenue: Rs 643.22 crore compared to Rs 685.27 crore during Q3FY24.
  • EBITDA: Rs 122.97 crore compared to Rs 158.98 crore during Q3FY24.
  • PAT: Rs 86.13 crore compared to Rs 107.87 crore during Q3FY24.
  • Exports: Rs 568.52 crore comoared to Rs 649.82 during Q3FY24.

Subhrakant Panda, Managing Director said: “Commodity markets in general are under pressure due to weak global demand and poor economic data emanating from China. However, we have minimised the impact of softening ferro chrome prices on Q3FY25 results through long term contracts and declining input costs. Further, margins have been bolstered by treasury operations.”

“The power supply situation in South Africa seems to have stabilised, there is significant upward pressure on tariffs with ESKOM having proposed a ~36% increase which is under consideration by the Regulator. Pricing pressure on ferro chrome continues in the ongoing quarter and current conditions are unsustainable for nonintegrated producers. However, feedback from customers indicates revival in ferro chrome demand going ahead. As such, taking all things into consideration, the fall in ferro chrome prices has been arrested and we expect an improvement hereon.”

Iron & Steel Products company Indian Metals & Ferro Alloys announced Q2FY25 results

  • Revenue: Rs 691.92 crore compared to Rs 692.61 during Q2FY24.
  • EBITDA: Rs 175.62 crore compared to Rs 150.27 during Q2FY24.
  • PAT: Rs 132.73 crore compared to Rs 89.96 during Q2FY24.
  • Exports: Rs 652.97 crore compared to Rs 653.77 during Q2FY24.

Subhrakant Panda, Managing Director said: “Higher output, continued focus on operating efficiency, and stable input costs and selling prices have led to improved margins in the second quarter results.

On the global front, demand for stainless steel has marginally dropped largely due to economic uncertainty. However, the long awaited stimulus measures announced in China coupled with the recent uptick in PMI are positive signs for the metals sector in general.

“Domestic ferro chrome prices have softened recently, making it unviable for non-integrated producers. In this context, access to captive ore and a debt-free Balance Sheet give us confidence and we are focused on leveraging it to register superior performance.”

Iron & Steel Products company Indian Metals & Ferro Alloys announced Q1FY25 results:

  • Revenue: Rs 662.28 million, a slight decrease compared to Q4FY24 (Rs 700.56 million) and Q1FY24 (Rs 701.73 million).
  • EBITDA: Rs 167.31 million, an increase from Q4FY24 (Rs 125.65 million) but a decline compared to Q1FY24 (Rs 172.92 million).
  • Profit After Tax (PAT): Rs 117.52 million, up from Rs 82.65 million in Q4FY24 and slightly higher than Rs 110.00 million in Q1FY24.
  • Exports: Rs 626.97 million, showing a slight decrease from Q4FY24 (Rs 630.77 million) and a larger drop from Q1FY24 (Rs 662.76 million).

Commenting on the results, Subhrakant Panda, Managing Director said: “The results for the first quarter reflect our strong focus on maximising operating efficiency, despite lower output on account of maintenance activities, and softening input costs have also provided a boost. While ferro chrome prices are rangebound at the moment, an uptick in demand driven by global stainless steel production – which is expected to be 6% higher this year – could result in improved realisations during the second half of the current fiscal. We will, of course, continue to benefit from our fully integrated business model and long term debt free balance sheet.”

Mr Panda added: “India’s continued focus on public infrastructure coupled with revival in private sector investment augurs well for demand; and, the lending rate cut in China is also expected to bolster the economy. Meanwhile, elevated chrome ore prices for non-integrated producers will likely limit any downside to ferro chrome prices.”

Iron & Steel Products company Indian Metals & Ferro Alloys announced Q4FY24 results:

  • IMFA has reported its Q4 FY24 financial results, showcasing a revenue of Rs 700.56 crore with a notable EBITDA of Rs 135.21 crore.
  • The company maintained a healthy EBITDA margin at 19.30% and achieved a Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs 82.65 crore.
  • The earnings per share (EPS) stood at Rs 15.32, indicating a robust return for shareholders.
  • Export revenue contributed significantly to the company's earnings with a figure of Rs 630.77 crore.

Operational Performance

  • Ferro chrome production reached a new milestone at 65,139 tonnes, emphasizing IMFA's operational efficiency.
  • With 67,981 tonnes sold, the ferro chrome sales volume reflects the company's strong market presence.
  • Power generation was marked at 286 million units, supporting the company's self-sufficiency in power.
  • Chrome ore raising also surpassed previous records, hitting over 6 lakh tonnes, which demonstrates a significant enhancement in mining operations.

Commenting on the annual results, Subhrakant Panda, Managing Director said: “Excellent operational performance during the year with highest ever ferro chrome production, chrome ore raising, and captive power generation set the stage for a strong financial performance. We are poised to embark on our expansion and diversification plans on the back of a robust Balance Sheet with zero debt, and this will create substantial value in times to come.”

Addressing the demand outlook, he said: “Even as there are some concerns due to ongoing geopolitical conflicts, economic stimulus measures announced by the Chinese Government augur well for commodities in general. Meanwhile, China remains a relatively high cost producer of ferro chrome which provides a base to prices. India’s focus on infrastructure with a large capital expenditure outlay in the interim budget will boost demand for stainless steel and, hence, ferro chrome.”
