RHI Magnesita: RHI Magnesita announced its 2018 full year results for the year ended 31 December 2018. Revenue for 2018 amounted to Euro 3,081 mn, 21% higher than 2017. The significant growth in revenue is underpinned by strong growth in both the Group’s Steel and Industrial Division results, aswell as the favourable market conditions, with positive dynamics in customer industries as well as the raw material pricing environment. The Company reported gross profit of Euro 737 mn in 2018 (2017: Euro 561 mn), as a result of strong selling prices, a high degree of vertical integration and synergies, partially offset by operational issues at certain plants and some supply chain challenges in H2 2018 (which will be an important focus in 2019), representing a gross profit margin of 23.9%, 190 bps higher than in the previous year. Underpinned by the strong performance of the business and given its strong annual cash generation, the Board has considered its long term dividend policy in the context of its capital allocation strategy. For 2018, the Board has recommended a final dividend of Euro 1.50 per share for the full financial year, equating to an increase of 100% over the previous year. This represents a dividend cover of 3.5x adjusted earnings per share.
