Befesa outlook revised to positive by S&P on reduced leverage Investing.com -- S&P Global Ratings revised its outlook on Befesa S.A. to positive from stable while affirming its ’BB’ credit rating, citing expectations for reduced leverage. The ratings agency projects Befesa’s adjusted EBITDA will grow to €225 million in 2025, up from €193 million in 2024 and €164 million in 2023, which had led to a downgrade in May 2024. Key drivers for the EBITDA recovery include healthy zinc prices, with zinc hedged at an average price of €2,640 per ton for about 65% of volumes, contribution from the ramp-up of two new Palmerton kilns, and cost savings at the Rutherford zinc refining plant. However, EBITDA growth is being partially offset by declining secondary aluminum alloy performance due to intense competition for scrap with Southeast Asian players and weak demand from European auto manufacturers. Poor results from Chinese operations are also a factor as the transition to electric arc furnace technology is taking longer than expected. S&P anticipates Befesa’s adjusted leverage will decrease to 2.9x by year-end 2025 and further to 2.6x by year-end 2026. The company is expected to generate positive discretionary cash flow of €49 million in 2025 and €46 million in 2026, even after dividend payments of €26 million and €38 million in those years, respectively. Growth for Befesa is expected to be primarily driven by operations in the U.S. and Europe, where steel producers continue to convert traditional furnaces to electric arc furnaces, supporting demand for Befesa’s steel dust recycling services. The company plans to focus on ramping up its Palmerton and Bernburg projects while being prudent with future growth capital expenditures. 3rd party Ad.

S&P noted that Befesa aims to operate with company-reported leverage between 2.0x and 2.5x, which would be consistent with a ’BB+’ rating. However, the agency expressed some uncertainty about the company’s commitment to adjusting dividends or capital expenditures during future downturns. A rating upgrade would require Befesa to achieve sustainable EBITDA of more than €225 million over the cycle, demonstrate a track record of adjusting capital expenditures and dividends to support neutral discretionary cash flow, and maintain adjusted debt to EBITDA of up to 3x at the bottom of the cycle.

Befesa reports in-line Q2 results, confirms full-year guidance Investing.com -- Befesa SA (ETR:BFSA) on Wednesday reported second-quarter results that were in line with expectations, with sales declining but earnings holding steady due to favorable pricing. The company’s revenue fell 9% year-over-year to €293 million in the second quarter, primarily due to maintenance shutdowns and volume declines. However, adjusted EBITDA increased 4% to €56.8 million, matching consensus estimates of €57 million. The EBITDA margin improved to 19.4% from 17.0% in the same period last year and 18.1% in the first quarter of 2025. In the steel dust segment, revenues decreased 13% year-over-year as electric arc furnace (EAF) volumes fell 11% and waelz oxide (WOX) sold declined 5%. Despite these volume challenges, the segment’s adjusted EBITDA rose 5% to €47 million, with margins expanding to 25.0% from 20.7% last year, supported by record-low treatment charges and favorable hedging prices. The salt slag business posted a 10% revenue increase to €30 million, with EBITDA growing 6% to €9 million. Meanwhile, the secondary aluminum segment continued to face pressure from weak automotive end-markets, with revenue dropping 8% to €86 million and EBITDA falling 45% to €0.6 million. Befesa’s earnings per share jumped to €0.53 from €0.26 in the prior year. Operating cash flow was €30 million, down 46% year-over-year, while free cash flow improved to €11.7 million compared to negative €4.2 million last year. Net leverage decreased to 2.70x from 2.78x in the first quarter. Management confirmed its full-year guidance, expecting a significant volume increase in the second half of 2025 as maintenance work completes and higher hedging levels support earnings. Current market consensus projects 16% sales growth and 21% adjusted EBITDA growth for the second half of the year. Befesa shares currently trade at €26.09, with Jefferies analysts maintaining a buy rating and a price target of €37.00, suggesting a 42% upside potential.
