China Steel Corp (中鋼) yesterday said it would raise domestic steel prices by up to NT$1,200 (US$39.59) per tonne for delivery next month, citing rising raw material costs and an upward trend in global markets.
Commentary on Prospect: Leform is principally involved in the manufacturing and trading of steel products. As indicated in the Prospectus date 26 Oct 2022,raw materials accounted for more than 90% of our total cost of sales.As such,volatility of steel price,being one of key risk factors to the business of the Group,would have impact on our Group margin,in view of this volatility,our management closely monitor the pricing of raw materials for current purposes.
