By GlobalDataThe company’s free cash flow for 2023 stood at $2.9bn while net debt was $2.9bn at year-end.
Sales for the 12 months of 2023 decreased 14.5% to $68.3bn, primarily due to a 13.5% drop in average steel selling prices, while shipments remained stable.
Operating income for 2023 was $2.3bn, a decrease from $10.3bn in 2022, driven by the negative price-cost effect, impairment charges and the impact of the disposal of Kazakhstan operations.
ArcelorMittal CEO Aditya Mittal said: “Turning to our financial performance, our results for the full year reflect the benefits of the structural improvements we have made to our cost base, asset portfolio and balance sheet in recent years.
“Despite the operating environment becoming increasingly challenging as the year progressed, our profitability per tonne is healthy and well above long-term averages.
“Looking ahead, there are early signs of a more constructive industry backdrop. This, alongside the progress we are making with our portfolio of strategic growth projects – several of which will complete this year – means the company will continue to take important steps forward in its drive to be a stronger, more profitable, and of course safer, company.”
