Otmane El Rhazi : IFM fights low ferrochrome price, higher input costs

Otmane El Rhazi from Mining Weekly | Ferrous Metals Home.

International Ferro Metals’ (IFM’s) financial performance and cash flows will likely remain under pressure unless there is a “sustained improvement” in the ferrochrome price, which has been hovering at the same level for three consecutive quarters. The European Benchmark Price remained at a five-year low of $1.08/lb by the end of June, following a $0.07/lb drop in the March quarter, with no indications of improving market conditions, the company noted in its quarterly production report for the three months to June 30 on Thursday.
