20.6 percent at December 31, 2018 to 22.4 percent at September 30, 2019. In the first three quarters of 2019, investment activities in the Lenzing Group focused on the expansion of the share of specialty fibers in line with the sCore TEN strategy. Lenzing puts the focus on stable and profitable growth as well as an improvement of the ecological footprint of the textile and nonwovens industries by expanding the production of specialty fibers. The decision to build a state-of-the-art lyocell plant with a capacity of 100,000 tons in Prachinburi (Thailand) is the next logical step to achieve this goal. In the third quarter, Lenzing chose Wood Plc as a partner for detailed engineering, purchasing and construction management and supervision; the related Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management contract (EPCM) was signed on August 15. In addition, the conversion of the production capacities from standard viscose to LENZING™ ECOVERO™ branded specialty viscose fibers was also continued during the reporting period. Increasing the self-supply with dissolving wood pulp is another key element of the sCore TEN strategy. Lenzing and the Brazilian company Duratex continue to advance the plannings and preparations for the construction of a 450,000 ton dissolving wood pulp plant in the state of Minas Gerais (Brazil). The basic engineering, site grading and the appli-cations for required permits are proceeding according to plan. In addition, the expansion and modernization of the pulp plant in Lenzing were completed in the third quarter. Lenzing will use blockchain technology to support its TENCEL™ branded fiber business, ensuring complete transparency and traceability for brands and consumers of its fibers in the finished garment. In the second quarter Lenzing announced a cooperation with the platform of the technology company TextileGenesis™ to accomplish this ambition; in the third quarter, Lenzing presented its first pilot project at the Hong Kong Fashion Summit. The TENCEL™ brand’s visibility was further increased through co-branding during the reporting period. The digital marketing concept “Where to buy” was introduced on the product website www.tencel.com in the first quarter of 2019. Based on this concept, products made from TENCEL™ fibers can be presented and linked in the online shops of more than 110 partners, including brands like H&M, Levi’s, Allbirds, Victoria Secret, Esprit, Pottery Barn and Asos. Lenzing invests more than EUR 100 mn in energy-saving measures, the conversion to renewable energies and in new technologies, thus strengthening its position as a front runner in climate protection both in the production industry and in particular also in the fiber industry. In the second quarter Lenzing announced its ambitious climate strategy. The goal is to reduce net emissions of greenhouse gases to zero by 2050. An important milestone on the way to becoming climate-neutral is set for the year 2030. By then Lenzing has committed to reduce emissions per ton of fibers and pulp by 50 percent compared with 2017. 2 Interim 4 Interim ReportReport 01-09/2019 01-09/2019 Lenzing Lenzing GroupGroup
Outlook The International Monetary Fund expects a slowdown of global economic growth to 3 percent in 2019, mainly driven by increasing protectionist tendencies and growing geopolitical tensions. The currency environment in the regions relevant to Lenzing will remain volatile. Global fiber demand has weakened. Trade conflicts have caused nervousness and declining demand throughout the textile value chain. According to preliminary calculations, cotton inventory levels will continue to increase in the 2019/20 season because a good harvest is expected. The price levels for cotton and polyester are expected to remain subdued. Capacity expansions for standard viscose, coupled with sluggish demand due to the trade conflicts, caused higher pressure on prices, which fell to a new historic low in the third quarter of 2019. In specialty fibers, the Lenzing Group expects a comparatively positive development of its business. Driven by the challenging situation in standard viscose and low paper pulp prices, prices for dissolving wood pulp remain on a comparatively low level. Caustic soda prices in Asia have already declined significantly over the past months; this development is now also noticeable in Europe. The very challenging and volatile market environment in general, paired with erratic developments in the trade disputes between the major economic blocks plus the high level of uncertainty in the textile value chain, significantly impacts earnings visibility. Based on the above mentioned economic environment, the Lenzing Group expects the result for 2019 to be slightly below the level of 2018. Above developments reassure the Lenzing Group in its chosen strategy sCore TEN. Lenzing is very well positioned in this market environment and will continue to focus growth with specialty fibers.
