仍具有一定韧性,但盈利能力受到威胁

 

德国化学品行业-信用风险评估

德国的化学品行业产量目前正在萎缩,但由于售价上涨,销量仍略有增长。随着能源和原材料价格的大幅上涨,10%的公司已大幅降低产量,而40%的公司实现了销售额增长。对生产商而言,能源和大宗商品价格已上涨35%-50%,在多数情况下,他们只能部分成本转嫁给最终客户。因此,大约有70%的化学品企业利润出现下滑。

强有力的财政支持应当能够帮助化学品和其他能源密集型行业缓解一定压力。德国议会近期通过了一项2,000亿欧元的能源救助计划,帮助企业和家庭度过难关,政府还计划在明年初实施电力和天然气价格上限措施。然而,居高不下的通货膨胀、较高的利率以及较低的经济增长率将抑制未来数月的化学品需求。

总体而言,德国化学品企业拥有稳健的资产净值、偿付能力和流动性,对当前形势具有一定韧性。行业资本化强大,有助于获得外部融资,并且债务结构良好,债务期限达到平衡状态。然而,利率的上升将提高必要投资(生产设施、环境要求收紧)的融资成本,可能导致盈利能力下降。

化学品行业的平均付款期限为30-60天,过去两年的付款行为一直非常出色。目前,我们预计2023年的延迟付款和资不抵债数量不会大幅增长。然而,虽然财政支持有力,但高油价和/或天然气短缺的下行风险在明年依然存在,可能会造成违约率和资不抵债率上升。

由于化学品行业具有一定的财务弹性,违约率较低,我们目前将其信用风险状况评估为“一般”。在各大子行业中,我们发现农用化学品部门的风险更高,该部门以往的大部分原材料来自乌克兰和俄罗斯,高价会抑制销售额的增长。高企的原材料价格则严重影响到肥皂和清洁剂部门,高通胀率还会导致家庭消费下跌。
