1년 2024분기 생산보고서
Ferrexpo plc (LSE: FXPO), a producer of premium iron ore pellets, is pleased to report production results for the first quarter to the end of March 2024 ("the quarter" or "1Q" or "1Q 2024").
Commenting on the Group's performance, Lucio Genovese, Executive Chair, said:
"Our operations have delivered an exceptional first quarter performance, with a 203% increase in total production compared to the previous quarter, to over two million tonnes of iron ore pellets and concentrate.This is our best quarterly performance since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine and is a tribute to the significant contribution of our workforce that has worked tirelessly since February 2022 to maintain operations in exceptionally challenging conditions.
During the quarter, we were once again able to export from Ukrainian ports, allowing us to export larger volumes to Europe and resume sales to MENA and Asian customers. It has taken considerable effort to restart these exports, so we are grateful to our teams on site, at port and to the many logistics providers and authorities that have helped achieve this.
At present, we are experiencing more conscriptions from our workforce, with 669 Ferrexpo employees serving in the army, the highest number since the start of the full-scale invasion. To date, 67 serving members have returned. The reintegration of veterans is a complex issue and we are responding with a comprehensive programme of support that includes physical and psychological rehabilitation as well as retraining for employees who cannot return to their previous roles due to health issues.
The challenges of the war are constantly changing our work environment and we must continuously adapt to shorter and tighter time scales, which requires a flexible workforce. To ensure our continued resilience we have placed a very strong focus on training where we have multiple initiatives in place at the Ferrexpo Technical Expertise Centre to upskill, cross-skill and re-skill employees, including fast tracking vocational qualifications.
It is pleasing that despite facing so many challenges, we are able to report solid production and sales numbers for the quarter. As long as we believe the level of risk is acceptable, taking into account the ongoing war in Ukraine, we will continue to use all the export capacity available to ensure that we are supporting the interests of all stakeholders."

Commenting on the Group's technical performance, Nikolay Kladiev, Group Chief Financial Officer said:
"The ability to export through the Ukrainian Black Sea ports has been positive not just for our production and sales, but also for the morale of our workers. They can sense that the company is working hard to protect their jobs and livelihoods.
Although it is positive that we have been able to export through the Black Sea ports, it has not been without its challenges. Logistics have been complex and shipping and insurance costs have increased. As the ports provide access to larger vessels, we have, however, benefited from economies of scale.
The year started with strong iron ore prices, and it was pleasing that we could ramp-up production and exports to take advantage of these prices. Although our unit costs have benefited from higher production rates, as we brought back capacity, total costs increased and as the quarter closed, we have increased inventory."
