Constellium today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.

For the second quarter of 2019, the company reported shipments of 413 thousand tonnes, up 4% year-on-year on higher shipments in the Packaging and Automotive Rolled Products segment, partially due to the consolidation of Bowling Green. Revenue increased 4% to €1.5 billion, due to improved price and mix and the consolidation of Bowling Green, partially offset by lower metal prices.  Net income stood at €17 million.  Adjusted EBITDA rose 8% YoY to €167 million on improved results in the Aerospace and Transportation segment.

For the first half of 2019, total shipments increased 5% to 826 thousand tonnes. Revenue stood at €3.1 billion, up 7% YoY. Net income increased to €41 million. Adjusted EBITDA stood at €302 million.

Jean-Marc Germain, Constellium’s Chief Executive Officer said, “ Our Aerospace and Transportation and Packaging and Automotive Rolled Products businesses maintained their momentum from the first quarter and each reported record quarterly Adjusted EBITDA, while Automotive Structures and Industry continued to experience incremental costs from new product launches and our footprint expansion. Based on our strong Free Cash Flow performance in the first half, we furthered our deleveraging by announcing in July the redemption of €100 million of our 2021 Senior Notes.”

In Packaging and Automotive Rolled Products (P&ARP) segment, shipments increased 7% to 284 thousand tonnes in Q2. Revenue stood at €821 million.
