PJSC “Ukrainian Graphite” (“Ukrgraphite,” Zaporizhzhia) reported a 53.7% increase in its net loss for the January–June period of this year compared to the same period last year, bringing the total to 180.462 million.
According to the company’s interim report, which is available to the Interfax-Ukraine news agency, revenue for this period decreased by 5.1% to 651.465 million UAH.
The company’s retained earnings as of the end of June amounted to 3,221.034 million UAH.
The management report notes that production is currently taking place amid a challenging situation in Ukraine’s energy sector and high energy prices, which requires the implementation of additional measures to improve energy efficiency to ensure the company’s uninterrupted operation. Specifically, these include work to modernize the mixing and pressing section (installation of an electrically heated mixing machine and restoration of the operational capacity of the electrode paste production line for the manufacture of carbonizing agents); modernization of the impregnation section—purchase and commissioning of a new vacuum system, which will ensure stable operation of the autoclaves to achieve a deep vacuum and help reduce vacuum oil consumption; modernization of the graphitization section—upgrading the mobile pneumatic system, which improves the system’s operational reliability, extends maintenance intervals, and reduces downtime.
In addition, the company modernized its electricity metering system—automating the monitoring of electricity consumption by the company’s divisions (consumer workshops) in production processes, optimizing the operating schedule of process equipment, and managing consumption.
