Yield potential through the cycle
Peak, trough and mid-cycle commodity prices
Renaissance Capital
1 April 2019
Metals & Mining
The mining sector remains highly cyclical and spot commodity prices will not prevail. We therefore calculate mining companies’ FCF yields, based on cash generation potential at different points in the cycle at current share prices. We calculate mining companies’ peak, trough and mid-cycle cash generation based on supply-side fundamentals.
The mining sector attracts capital during bull markets, when commodity and asset prices are elevated. New projects are approved based on return expectations that are often based on an optimistic outlook for commodity prices, capital intensity or unit costs. Once built, marginal operations do not shut when returns fail to meet the cost of capital, but only when they become cash-burning. This results in oversupplied commodity industries delivering poor returns for extended periods.
Our peak, trough and mid-cycle commodity prices are therefore based on the following assumptions:
▪Peak commodity prices – based on incentive prices where we assume that the average producer will achieve a 10% IRR on the average greenfield project.
▪Trough commodity prices – assume that around 50% of production is cashburning, resulting in capacity closures to balance oversupplied markets. We use a price that is close to industry average cash costs.
▪Mid-cycle commodity prices – we use our long-term (real) commodity price forecasts, which are based around the 90th percentile of industry cash costs and imply poor average returns below 8% on new projects, presenting capital barriers to supply growth, in our view.
The table and chart below illustrate our peak, trough and mid-cycle iron ore price assumptions and their relation to the 2018E iron ore cost curve as an example of our methodology.

Trough commodity prices – 50% of production cash-burning
Trough commodity prices assume that around 50% of production is cash-burning, resulting in capacity closures to balance oversupplied markets. We use a price that is close to industry average cash costs or around the 50th percentile on the cost curve.

Our mid-cycle commodity prices are based around the 90th percentile of industry cash costs and imply mediocre average returns below 9% on new projects, presenting capital barriers to supply growth, in our view. We also use these as our long-term real commodity price forecasts.

Our mid-cycle commodity price forecasts reflect their historical relationship with industry costs…
Most of our commodity price forecasts are around the 90th percentile of industry cash costs.
The charts below on the left show historical annual average commodity prices compared with the 90th percentile of cost curves over time. The charts on the right show the commodity price premium or discount to the 90th percentile.

…and should not incentivise oversupply
Our long-term commodity prices are determined with reference to industry cost support rather than incentive price levels. We use the 90th percentile on cost curves as a reference point for our long-term commodity prices.
Figures 35 and 36 show that at our long-term commodity price and margin forecasts, which are below spot levels in many cases, new greenfield project returns will fall short of WACC, on average.
Our commodity price forecasts over the medium term are well below incentive price levels and could lead to several years of under-investment.

Peak cycle commodity prices – incentive pricing levels for 10% IRR on average greenfield projects
Our peak commodity prices are based on incentive prices, where we assume that the average producer will achieve a 10% IRR on a greenfield project with average capital intensity (see table on previous page).
