Industrial Production and Turnover July 2024

Production in manufacturing industries up 2.2% in the three months to July 2024

Online ISSN: 2009-5384
CSO statistical publication, 09 September 2024, 11am

Advisory Note

The results presented in this release reflect contract manufacturing activity and outsourcing in the Irish industrial economy. This release is prepared in compliance with the requirement of EU Regulation 1165/98, as amended, and the standards set out in the UN 2010 International Recommendations for the Index of Industrial Production. These standards set out that outsourced production is included as part of an enterprise's Irish production.

The scale of contract manufacturing and outsourcing in the Irish industrial economy has increased since 2015, meaning that very high levels of short-term, i.e. monthly, volatility may be present in the indices presented in this release.

With this in mind, the Central Statistics Office (CSO) recommends that analysts take a longer-term view of the indices. Accordingly, much of the commentary presented by the CSO in the release will refer to rolling quarterly time periods.

Key Findings

  • From May to July 2024, production in manufacturing industries increased by 2.2% when compared with the previous three-month period.

  • On a monthly basis, production in manufacturing industries fell by 1.3% in July 2024.

  • When compared with the same three-month period in 2023, production in manufacturing industries was 4.3% lower in the three months from May to July 2024.

  • In the three-month period from May to July 2024, the Modern sector experienced an annual decrease of 6.6% in production when compared with the same three-month period in 2023. In contrast, annual production in the Traditional sector grew by 8.2% during the same period.

  • From May to July 2024, turnover in manufacturing industries was up by 4.9% when compared with the previous three-month period.

Statistician's Comment

The Central Statistics Office (CSO) has today (09 September 2024) released the Industrial Production and Turnover Index for July 2024.

Commenting on the release, Colin Cotter, Statistician in the Enterprise Statistics Division, said: "Production in manufacturing industries increased by 2.2% from May to July 2024 when compared with the previous three-month period, driven by differences in performance between the highly globalised Modern sector and the Traditional sector (See Headline Table, Table 1, and Table 3b).

Monthly production in manufacturing industries fell by 1.3% between June and July 2024. On an annual basis, production in this sector was 4.3% lower in the three months from May to July 2024 when compared with the same period in 2023 (See Table 1 and Table 3b). The CSO recommends that analysts take a longer-term view of the indices because of the variability that can occur within the given months of a quarter.

The highly globalised Modern sector, which includes the Chemical, Pharmaceutical, and Computer & Electronic sectors, experienced a decrease of 6.6% in industrial production between May and July 2024, when compared with the same period in 2023. In contrast, the Traditional sector experienced an increase of 8.2% from May to July 2024, compared with the same period in 2023 (See Table 2 and Table 3b).

From May to July 2024, turnover in manufacturing industries was up by 4.9% when compared with the previous three-month period (See Headline Table, Table 4, and Table 3b).

In general, it should be noted that the results presented in this release reflect contract manufacturing activity in the multinational sectors."

Notice of Introduction of the Base 2021 series

The current Industrial Production and Turnover index series is calculated to Base 2015=100. The base period for these indices is updated every five/six years.

The rebased series (2021=100) which was originally scheduled to be introduced with the July data (released in September) has been postponed and will now be published in the September data, which will be issued in November. The rebased indices from January 2021 onwards will be calculated using weights based on the 2021 Census of Industrial Production and deflated using the rebased Wholesale Price Index 2021=100. Revisions to some components of raw data will be observed and explained fully as part of the revised series being published in the Industrial Production and Turnover release, with full details available on the CSO open data portal data.cso.ie (PxStat).

Note on Review of Seasonal Adjustment

In line with best practice, the CSO has been conducting a review of the seasonal adjustment methodology used in this monthly Industrial Production and Turnover series. This review is due to be finalised shortly and, in the meantime, the CSO will continue to implement the direct method of seasonal adjustment.

Headline Table

The headline table shows the seasonally adjusted and unadjusted Production and Turnover indices for Manufacturing industries. It also highlights the monthly and annual percentage changes for these indices, as well as percentage changes for the current compared with the previous quarter.
