For the full-year 2004, net earnings were $596.8 million, or diluted earnings per share of $7.46 compared with $119.2 million, or diluted earnings per share of $1.49 after the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, which reduced earnings per share by 2 cents for the full year 2003. EBITDA increased to $1,004.9 million in 2004 compared to $290.4 million in the year 2003. The Company's cash and marketable securities increased 100% in 2004 to $591.3 million as of December 31, 2004.
Sales of products were $624.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2004 compared with $245.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2003, an increase of 154.3% over the 2003 period. Sales of products for the full-year 2004 totaled $1,715.9 million compared with $798.4 million for 2003, an increase of 114.9% over the full-year 2003. Molybdenum and silver, the most important by-products of the Company, represented 30.6% of the total sales in the year 2004 and 15.7% in the year 2003. For the year 2004 molybdenum sales represented 28.9% of sales, silver 1.7% of sales and copper, the principal product of the Company, 68.6% of sales.
Metal Prices
The average price for copper on the London Metal Exchange (LME) and New York Commodity Exchange (COMEX) in the fourth quarter of 2004 was $1.40 and $1.41 per pound, respectively, compared with 93 cents and 94 cents in the year earlier period. The average price for molybdenum, the Company's principal by-product, was $25.92 per pound this quarter, compared with $6.35 in the fourth quarter of 2003. The price of silver, another significant by-product, averaged $7.25 per ounce on the COMEX in the fourth quarter of 2004, compared with $5.28 in the fourth quarter of 2003.
For the full-year 2004, the average price for copper on the LME and COMEX was $1.30 and $1.29 per pound, respectively, compared with 81 cents per pound in both markets in 2003. The price for molybdenum was higher in 2004 at $16.41 per pound compared to $5.32 per pound in 2003. The price for COMEX silver was higher in 2004 at $6.68 per ounce compared with $4.89 per ounce in 2003.
Production
Mine copper production for the full-year 2004 increased 6.1% to 876 million pounds. This increase of 50.0 million pounds included 40.7 million pounds from the Toquepala mine, 21.7 million pounds from the Cuajone mine and a decrease of 12.4 million pounds in SX/EW production. The Toquepala concentrator processed 3% more in 2004, establishing a new milling record of 21.8 million tons. This increase in throughput was increased by higher ore grades and recoveries in 2004. The concentrator produced 580,110 tons of concentrate a new production record. The increase in production from the Cuajone mine is due to higher ore grades in 2004 and improved mill recoveries, which produced 752,941 tons of concentrate, also a new production record. SX/EW copper production decreased by 12.4 million pounds because of lower PLS grades.
In 2004, SPCC's smelter processed 1.21 million tons of concentrates, 2.5% more than in 2003. Blister production was 702.6 million pounds, 2% more than in 2003. The Ilo refinery cathode production, however, was 618.8 million pounds, a decrease of 1% from 2003. This decrease is explained by interruptions in the flow of blister to the refinery during the first part of 2004, as a result of the Company's voluntary Supplementary Control Program. Loss of production early in the year could not be made up despite the increase in blister availability in the latter part of the year.
Results and Modernization Program:
Commenting on the Company's economic results, for the fourth quarter of 2004, Mr. Oscar Gonzalez Rocha, President and Chief Executive Officer of SPCC said, "The improvement in Company earnings for both the fourth quarter of, and the year 2004 is principally due to increases in production and sales volume of copper, molybdenum and silver and significant increases in the price for copper and molybdenum."
Reporting on the Company's modernization program, Mr. Oscar Gonzalez Rocha, said, "The Ilo smelter modernization project is moving ahead on schedule with detailed engineering and preliminary construction work in process in order to finish by the end of 2006. Additionally the Company's leaching dump, crushing and conveying project at the Toquepala mine is also progressing on schedule. The leaching dumps project investment through December 2004 is $44.3 million. The total budgeted investment for this project is $70 million and is scheduled for completion in mid-2005 with projected annual operating cost saving of $25 million."
"The acquisition of the mining assets of Grupo Mexico is moving forward. The Company obtained regulatory approval for this transaction and the Company shareholders have been asked to approve the acquisition. As part of this transaction SPCC paid on March 1, 2005 a special dividend of $100 million prior to the closing to all of SPCC's existing shareholders. We expect to complete this transaction on March 28, 2005."
"Also, commencing on January 28, SPCC began buying back the $199 million outstanding under the Peruvian bond program. We are paying 101 percent of the face value, plus accrued interest. We expect to complete the purchase of the bonds in April 2005. The Company is using the proceeds from the new $200 million unsecured term loan facility, signed on January 24, 2005, to fund the buy back. The new loan agreement will reduce interest cost and provide the Company with additional financial flexibility."
"Mr. Oscar Gonzalez Rocha also said that the Company currently contemplates an anticipated reduction in the volume of copper produced of approximately 8% for 2005. This anticipated reduction in volume results from a decline in ore grade at the Company's Cuajone Mine. The effect of this anticipated reduction in copper volume production in respect of the Company's 2005 sales is subject to a variety of contingencies, including the price of copper and molybdenum during the year."
