The shares of ArcelorMittal (NYSE: MT) continued to trend upward as commodity and energy prices surged during the latter half of 2021. ArcelorMittal is a leading integrated steel manufacturer in the world with a strong presence in Europe and America. In 2021, the company’s total crude steel and iron ore production were 69 Mt (million metric tonnes) and 51 Mt, respectively. The WHO is actively exploring the criteria to end the pandemic as many countries have lifted restriction measures to spur macroeconomic growth. While the ripple effects of the Russia-Ukraine war will affect global trade in the near term, ArcelorMittal’s top line is expected to benefit from the upward commodity price cycle.

How did ArcelorMittal perform in 2021?

In 2021, ArcelorMittal reported a 44% (y-o-y) growth in total revenues assisted by rising iron ore prices coupled with pent-up demand in China, and supply chain hurdles due to the pandemic. Geographically, the share of total sales in the Americas, Europe, and Asia & Africa was 33%, 55%, and 12%, respectively. Per annual filings, the apparent steel consumption in the U.S., Europe, Brazil, and CIS regions are likely to expand at an average rate by 2%, 1%, 9%, and 1%, respectively, in 2022. The growth is projected to be led by the automobile and infrastructure sectors as supply chain issues and labor force participation rate alleviates with macroeconomic recovery. With $9.9 billion of cash from operations, the company invested $3 billion in property, plant & equipment and financed $5 billion of share buybacks at an average price of $30.
