1/ EBITDA for any period is defined as consolidated net income (loss) excluding i) depreciation and amortization, ii) total net comprehensive financing result (which is comprised of net interest expense, exchange gain or loss, monetary position gain or loss and other Financing costs), iii) other expenses net, iv) income tax and statutory employee profit sharing and v) equity in income (loss) of associated companies. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternate measure of net income or operating income, as determined on a consolidated basis using amounts derived from statements of operations prepared in accordance with MFRS, or as an indicator of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activity as a measure of liquidity. EBITDA is not a recognized term under MFRS or U.S. GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activity as a measure of liquidity.

Our consolidated net income for the first six months ended June 30, 2022, was Ps.1,530.5 million (US$76.0 million), compared to a net income of Ps.695.4 million in the same period of 2021. This change is primarily due to higher sales Revenues and lower Comprehensive Financial Result.

Revenues

Our net revenues for the first six months of 2022 increased 21.6% to Ps.15,899.2 million (US$789.6 million) from Ps.13,077.1 million in the same period of 2021. This was the result in part due to the increase of Comex copper prices which were passed into the final selling price of our copper products and our product sales mix.

Our costs and revenues follow copper prices very closely since the market practice is to pass on to the buyer changes in raw material price.

Our sales are primarily to customers engaged in the commercial, industrial, and residential construction, and their related maintenance and renovation activities. We also sell to customers engaged in electrical power generation, transmission, and distribution and to the sector of gas, water and air conduction in the Heating, Ventilation, Air conditioning and Refrigeration (HVACR).

Our revenues consist mainly of sales of copper-based products (tubing, wire, cable and alloys), electrical products and increasingly other products like valves, water tanks, water heaters and tools, among others, which have more added value.

By country of production, approximately 50.7% of our revenues in the first six months ended June 30, 2022, came from products manufactured in Mexico and the remaining 49.3% from products manufactured in the U.S.

In terms of sales by region during the first six months ended June 30, 2022, we derived approximately 57.8% of our revenues from sales to customers in the United States, 39.0% from customers in Mexico and 3.2% from the rest of the world (“ROW”).

In terms of volume, consolidated sales of copper products during the first six months ended June 30, 2022, slightly decreased (by 1.3%) as compared to the same period in 2021:

Cost of sales

Our cost of sales in the first six months ended June 30, 2022, increased by 15.4% to Ps.12,654.0 million (US$628.4 million) from Ps.10,964.5 million in the same period of 2021. As percentage of revenues, cost of sales improved and was 79.6% and 83.8% respectively.

We reduce our cost base through several initiatives, including plant scheduling, raw material handling, and overall manufacturing overhead costs. According to our accounting policies, we make an inventory valuation at average purchase price. In the case of copper cathodes, an aftermath adjustment is required due to the quotation period agreed with the suppliers (M+1). This initiative allows us to hedge purchases for 30 days at no additional cost. The adjustment is recorded to the cost of sales in the month in which it occurs.

Gross Profit

Our gross profit in the first six months ended June 30, 2022, increased 53.6% to Ps.3,245.1 million (US$161.2 million) from Ps.2,112.6 million in the same period of 2021. As percentage of sales, gross profit in 2022 also improved and was 20.4% vs 16.2% in 2021.

Operating Income

Our operating income in the first six months ended June 30, 2022, increased 67.4% to Ps.2,134.5 million (U.S.$106.0 million) from our operating income Ps.1,275.1 in the same period of 2021.
