Ramada Group closed the first semester of the year 2021 with a strong growth in turnover, as a result, essentially, by the increase in prices that has occurred.

In the first semester, the Steel activity recorded significant growth, largely due to the positive contribution of the Metalworking sector, which at the end of this semester showed a significant improvement, to the detriment of the Moulds sector, which is usually the main pillar of this activity.

The Moulds sector was negatively affected by the crisis experienced in the automotive industry, as a result of the lack of components and generalized lay-offs. The delay in the launch of new projects for electric cars has had a harmful effect on the Portuguese mould making industry, very dependent on the automotive sector, which has generated the need to operate well below installed capacity.

The demand for raw materials had a significant increase in the middle of the semester, with constant price increases and shortages of materials by some suppliers. The sharp rise in scrap and iron ore prices that occurred in the middle of the semester, the closing of import quotas from third countries in the European Union and the difficulties in maritime transport, caused a severe rise in prices of various types of steel.

In the first half of 2021, the sales of the Steel activity to the external market represented 9% of turnover, registering a growth of 38% compared to the same period of 2020.

The growth of exports has been gradual, being the highlight the consolidation of the presence in the Spanish market.

In the first half of 2021, the wire drawing activity registered a sharp growth in sales compared to the previous year, as a result of significant increases in prices and production volume.

During the first half of 2021, Socitrel installed a self-consumption photovoltaic power plant with an installed capacity of 1 MWh, comprising 2,222 photovoltaic panels on the roof of some of its industrial units. The photovoltaic plant started operating at the end of the first half of the year, with an expected annual production of around 1.2 GWh, which is equivalent to supplying, on average, 500 houses for a year, and will enable Socitrel's energy bill to be reduced by around 7.2%, as well as reducing the emission of 780 tons of CO2 per year.

The wire drawing activity operates essentially in the foreign market, accounting for 66% of turnover in the first half of 2021. Exports in this sector registered a growth of 80% compared to the same period in 2020. The main destinations of exports were Spain, the United States and France.
