Commenting on the results of activities in 2022, Mauro Longobardo, the general director of AMKR, stated that the main conclusion that can be made now is that the enterprise has survived and has not stopped working in spite of the full-scale war.
“The question of survival and resistance to all adverse factors has become the main task of the entire mining and metallurgical industry throughout 2022. Now ArcelorMittal Krivoy Rog continues to fight for survival, having survived last year’s difficulties related to the blockade of major seaports, as well as power outages and even a missile strike. We manage to maintain a satisfactory state of the company’s liquidity, including by attracting credit funds under ArcelorMittal group guarantees,” the top manager noted.
He also added that the support of the parent company, as well as the heroic work of the employees, made it possible to maintain the pulse of production in Kryvyi Rih.
“Now we are concentrating on gradually resuming more and more production processes at the combine and we expect to move to positive EBITDA as early as the second half of this year,” Longobardo said.
According to him, according to international financial reporting standards, in 2022 the company recognized UAH 36 billion of losses from a decrease in the usefulness of its non-current assets as a result of negative changes in the economic environment caused by Russian military aggression.

In spite of this, the company retained its staff, and all employees receive their salaries on time.

Among such projects is the construction of the new tailing pond “The Third Map”, which is necessary for the continuation of production and safe storage of the production wastes.
