seasonality in H2
This outlook is in line with the momentum of the beginning of this year, without any economic setback related to the pandemic
Christel Bories,
Eramet group Chair and CEO: In 2020, the pandemic brutally disrupted our ecosystem. In particular it resulted in a major economic crisis in the aerospace sector, the main end-market for our Aubert & Duval subsidiary.
Thanks to our demanding roadmap, the mobilisation and agility of our teams, as well as a responsible crisis management, we have recorded remarkable successes in our mining activities and succeeded in seizing opportunities, despite the disruptions. We were also able to control cash consumption, particularly in our High-Performance Alloys division whose responsiveness was exceptional in the second half of the year, and our debt was substantially reduced at end-2020 compared to end-June.
Eramet SA: Eramet: Good resilience of the Group in 2020, thanks to excellent operational performance and strong cash generation in the second half
