Abstract

The paper aims to outline the causes that affected a rare earth metal producer Molycorp Silmet's internationalization based on case study evidence. Moreover, based on statistical analysis, it aims to study how its internationalization and financial performance were interconnected. It concludes that 1) its export fluctuations mostly resulted from external factors and that despite such fluctuations, the firm's financial health was mostly good, 2) high concentration on a single target market can lower profitability, 3) fluctuations in target market shares can increase or decrease a firm's profitability, but they are not interconnected with its bankruptcy probability.
财务绩效与国际化的关联:以一家稀有金属生产商为例
本文旨在以案例研究为基础,概述影响稀土金属生产商Molycorp Silmet国际化的原因。并在统计分析的基础上,研究其国际化与财务绩效之间的相互关系。其结论是:1)出口波动主要是由外部因素造成的,尽管有这种波动,但企业的财务健康状况大多良好;2)对单一目标市场的高度集中会降低盈利能力;3)目标市场份额的波动会增加或减少企业的盈利能力,但它们与破产概率无关。
