Johnson Matthey Share Discussion Threads

MyRechemical, NextChem’s subsidiary dedicated to waste-to-chemical technologies, and Johnson Matthey plc (JM; London), a global leader in sustainable technologies, will jointly cooperate to commercially develop “waste-to-methanol” technology worldwide.


This waste-to-methanol technology has its roots in the chemical conversion of non-recyclable municipal waste, which would otherwise be disposed in landfill or incinerated, into valuable syngas used to produce methanol. Through the chemical conversion of non-recyclable municipal and industrial waste, mainly plastic and dry waste, the resulting hydrogen and carbon oxides can be used to produce more sustainable chemical products.


The methanol derived from this process can be used as an intermediate for low-carbon additives in the blending of gasoline and diesel, replacing the fossil-based component with one derived from recycling, as well as a raw material for the chemical, construction and plastic industries.

Liberum still has Johnson Matthey doubts

Liberum has hiked its profit forecast for Johnson Matthey (JMAT) but the broker still has concerns about its longer-term future.

Analyst Adam Collins maintained his ‘hold’ recommendation but raised the target price on the stock from £24.50 to £31.50, after increasing earnings estimates by 28% this year following the recovery in automobile production and strong market conditions in platinum group metals recycling.

‘However, we still have doubts about some aspects of future structural development,’ said Collins, pointing to concerns raised in a note on the sector earlier this year.

The company may be enjoying the fruits of a cyclical recovery now, but Liberum believes it derives a third of its profits from catalytic converters for diesel cars and commercial vehicles. That market looks structurally challenged. In Europe, for example, new sales are likely to be outlawed between 2030 to 2040.

‘Johnson Matthey is much more dependent on the heavy-duty diesel [HDD] market than its competitors – we estimate it has a 70% share of the global HDD market,’ said Collins. Replicating that dominance in hydrogen fuel cell trucks looks like a tall order.

The shares closed up 0.6%, or 18p, at £29.95 on Monday.

Market not impressed with today's trading update.


I like this though..


"In green hydrogen production, testing with customers is proceeding well and we continue to expect first commercial sales from this business in 2022. Given the strong progress we have made with customers and the rapidly developing market, the recent acquisition(3) of assets from Oxis Energy will enable us to further expand our manufacturing capability in the UK and accelerate our growth ambitions. This will provide hundreds of megawatts of additional capacity from the beginning of 2022"

Miserable targets from several brokers for this excellent firm with an outstanding reputation. Whilst their revenue from catalytic converters will inevitably decline it will not occur overnight. Meanwhile their battery technology which they have pursued for many years will continue to expand and they will inevitably avail themselves of the newer scientific progress in this field. I regret iI didn't buy more a year ago.

Johnson Matthey (JM), a specialist in sustainable technologies, has joined with CPI, the technology innovation centre, and Thomas Swan, a leading UK chemical manufacturer, to explore how to optimise battery technology.


The ICE-Batt project receives funding support from the Faraday Battery Challenge, managed by Innovate UK – the UK’s innovation agency – to enable the investigation of how innovative carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) can improve battery performance.
