Ukrainian mining and steel producing group Metinvest has announced its results for 2017.

Accordingly, in 2017 Metinvest recorded a net profit of $617 million compared to a net profit of $118 million in 2016, while its consolidated revenues totaled $8.93 billion, up 44 percent year on year, driven primarily by higher steel and iron ore selling prices, which followed global benchmarks. In addition, stronger demand spurred greater sales of pig iron, slab, flat products and coke.

In the given year, revenues from the metallurgical division went up by 47 percent year on year to $7.41 billion, while those from the mining division increased by 27 percent year on year to $1.52 billion, mainly due to higher iron ore and coal selling prices. The metallurgical division accounted for 83 percent of external sales, up by two percentage points, while the mining division accounted for 17 percent, down by two percentage points, both year on year. 

Meanwhile, the company's adjusted EBITDA in the given year amounted to $2.04 billion, rising by 77 percent compared to 2016, primarily driven by an increase in the contribution from the mining segment to $832 million, with an EBITDA margin of 23 percent.
