Business Segment Performance in Q2 FY23
- Novelis
Novelis delivered another solid quarter with higher shipments driven by a recovery in automotive and aerospace segments and better pricing.
As per the company filing, total shipments of flat rolled products were at 984 Kt in Q2 FY23 as compared to 968 Kt in Q2 FY22, up 2 per cent Y-o-Y, driven by a recovery in automotive and aerospace shipments.
Novelis’ revenue in Q2 FY23 stood at $4.8 billion compared to $4.1 billion in Q2 FY22, up 17 per cent YoY, primarily because of higher volumes, increased product pricing, favourable mix and higher average aluminium prices.
Novelis continued to report an EBITDA of over $500 million, which was down 8 per cent from $506 million in Q2 FY23, despite higher inflationary pressures and other operating costs and an unfavourable foreign exchange translation, partially offset by higher product pricing, higher volumes and favourable product mix.
- Aluminium
The upstream revenue was Rs 8,215 crore in Q2 FY23, up by 11 per cent Y-o-Y in comparison to Rs 7,421 crore in the prior year period. Aluminium Upstream EBITDA stood at Rs 1,347 crore in Q2 FY23, which was down by almost 57 per cent from Rs 3,128 crore for Q2 FY22, due higher input costs and unfavourable macros. Upstream EBITDA margins were at 16.4 per cent and continue to be one of the best in the global industry.
