Company Description

Some people think petroleum is just fine the way it is; NewMarket thinks it needs a little something extra added to it. The company is a holding entity for two operating subsidiaries: Afton Chemical and Ethyl Corporation. Afton Chemical manufactures petroleum additives used to improve the performance of gasoline, diesel, and other fuels and as a lubricant in motor oil, fluids, and grease. Ethyl's main product is the antiknock additive tetraethyl lead, though TEL has lost substantial ground in markets where unleaded gas is preferred. Various parts of Royal Dutch Shell account for about 12% of NewMarket's overall sales.

    Sample Questions & Answers

    How does the company mitigate cyclical demand?

    Demand for industrial chemicals is subject to the cyclicality of heavy end-use markets, and therefore volatile. The automotive and construction industries, for example, can experience significant production declines during economic downturns.

     

    How does the company protect itself from fluctuating energy costs?

    Extracting and processing basic chemicals from raw materials typically requires large amounts of energy, usually in the form of heat. Many chemicals also use natural gas or petroleum as a raw material. Since energy costs can account for as much as...

      Competitive Landscape Brief

      Demand is driven by federal legislation and regulations that establish a government-mandated market for biofuels. The profitability of biofuel production facilities depends on prices of gasoline and diesel, which fluctuate based on world petroleum demand and domestic refinery utilization. Economies of scale in ethanol production are limited due to the transportation costs associated with gathering feedstocks (corn and other biomasses) and transporting the ethanol to blending sites. As a result, large companies operate multiple production facilities. Small companies can compete effectively by developing business relations with distributors and by delivering consistently. Ethanol imports account for about 3 percent of the US market and come mainly from Brazil, the second largest producer of ethanol after the US. Ethanol exports, mainly to Canada and the Netherlands, account for about 2 percent of US production.The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee in ethanol production facilities is about $2 million per year. Biofuels is a young industry that has grown rapidly. New entrants join the field constantly and new technology breakthroughs are frequent. Federal and state government subsidies and loan guarantees keep barriers to entry relatively low.
