穆迪確認Titan International評級為B1 但展望由穩定轉為負面

穆迪評級機構最新宣布,確認Titan International(紐約證券交易所代碼:TWI)的企業家族評級為B1,但將其展望由穩定調整至負面,原因是該公司面對農業及建築設備需求持續疲弱,導致信用指標低於預期。

穆迪指出,Titan的主要信用指標預計將持續低於2025年原先的預測,因需求限制可能會延續至2026年。高利率、宏觀經濟不確定性、關稅問題以及大宗商品價格回落,均抑制了新設備的購買意欲。

Titan於2024年2月以債務融資方式收購Carlstar Group LLC,但此舉反而加劇了營運表現不佳對信用指標的負面影響,因為收購正值農業行業下行周期之初。

儘管面臨挑戰,穆迪仍肯定Titan作為全球領先農業及建築設備製造商的輪胎及輪轂供應商的堅實競爭地位。長遠來看,全球穀物產量需求增加、設備老化及先進農業技術的需求,將支持Titan的需求前景。

短期內,Titan的農業客戶因需求疲弱而減產,對公司營運造成重大影響。土方及建築設備市場表現參差不齊,礦業需求穩健,但除基建及本地化項目外,建築活動放緩。

穆迪預期Titan的EBITA利潤率將於2025年輕微回升至中3%區間,高於2024年約3%的水平。公司截至2025年3月31日的債務與EBITDA比率已超過6倍,但預計隨著自由現金流用於還債,年底前將降至6倍以下。

Carlstar收購效益受限,市場需求疲弱難以彌補

Carlstar收購原本預期能透過規模擴大及客戶基礎拓展帶來效益,但受制於疲弱需求環境,售後市場收入無法抵銷新設備支出的下降。

Titan的SGL-2流動性評級維持不變,反映公司約2億美元的現金儲備,以及2025年餘下時間預計透過循環信貸還款提升的可用資金。2025年第一季度末,公司在2.25億美元的資產抵押貸款額度下尚有5700萬美元可用。

穆迪預計Titan於2025年將產生正自由現金流,但金額低於過往年度,因嚴謹的營運資金管理及減少資本支出仍不足以完全抵銷盈利疲軟。

升級與降級條件明確,Titan面臨嚴峻考驗

若Titan要獲得評級提升,必須維持EBITA利潤率超過7%,即使在經濟低迷期,債務與EBITDA比率亦需降至中4倍區間,且EBITA與利息比率要保持在4倍以上。

反之,若EBITA利潤率持續低於5%,債務與EBITDA比率高於5.5倍,或EBITA與利息比率低於3倍,評級將面臨下調風險。此外,流動性惡化或採取激進財務政策,亦可能觸發降級。

編輯評論:Titan International的挑戰與轉機

Titan International作為農業及建築設備輪胎供應領域的老牌企業,面對當前多重宏觀經濟逆風,信用評級展望轉負面並不令人意外。高利率環境下,設備投資減緩,加上全球貿易摩擦和大宗商品價格波動,令資本支出趨於謹慎,直接反映在Titan的營運表現上。

然而,農業設備更新換代的長期趨勢仍存在,全球對糧食產量的需求穩步增長,且設備老化與技術升級需求並未消失。Titan若能把握這些結構性機遇,並有效控制成本及債務,仍有望恢復盈利能力。

收購Carlstar的戰略意圖明顯是擴大規模和客戶基礎,但在當前需求疲弱環境下,短期內難以實現預期協同效益。這提醒企業在併購決策時,必須更謹慎評估宏觀經濟環境與行業周期。

此外,穆迪對Titan提出的升級條件非常嚴苛,反映市場對企業改善營運效率和財務健康的高標準期望。Titan未來需加強創新能力及市場靈活性,才能在競爭激烈的市場中維持領先地位。

總括來說,Titan正處於一個關鍵轉折點,既面對短期壓力,也擁有長期成長潛力。投資者與管理層都需密切關注市場動態,靈活調整策略,才能在波動中尋找突破。
