3 Stainless Steel at a Glance Only Slow Market Improvement in Europe Demand: Stainless steel market in Europe remained comparatively subdued at the beginning of Particularly, the demand from end-users showed little signs of life. Stimulus can only come from abroad as the economic situation in Southern and Western Europe is still disastrous. A beginning recovery in Asia (mainly China) and continuous strength in North America is the main hope for European fabricators. The first quarter is usually a time of re-stocking. The recent drop of Ni prices was a stark recall that volatility still prevails spooking stockists. Mills: Financial results in Q4/12 were very disappointing. Weakening base prices combined with falling volumes resulted in heavy losses for virtually all European mills (long- and flat products). As a result, Aperam has announced a base price increase of 50 EUR/t in January, but it still remains to be seen whether the market accepts this. The Ni price correction in February lead to a slightly higher alloy surcharge in March. The European production system will be subject to major changes as Outokumpu is winding down its meltshop in Krefeld, Germany and increasing the output in Tornio, Finland. Aperam came forward as a contender to acquire AST in Terni, Italy. The Italian press reported, that two major Italian customers of AST Marcegaglia and Arvedi might be potential partners in the deal. This consolidation would definitely be a step in the right direction in Europe, but it remains to be seen whether it will get the nod from Brussels. Forecast 2013: SMR expects a drop in demand of -1% for this year (across all products), before the European market will recover in There are indications that the market situation in the six Damstahl Countries will be better than in the rest of Europe as it consists of mostly export oriented economies including Germany, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands and Slovenia. Markets with a negative growth this year include Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece and perhaps also France. Consumer goods (incl. automotive) will remain subdued throughout the year, whilst the demand from the building and construction sector will be growing. The very important process equipment sector starts the year weak, but is expected to recover substantially after the summer, as the number of projects in the chemical and petrochemical industry that will be commissioned in 2014 is higher than 2013 (increasing the stainless steel demand at least 6 months prior to commissioning). China and Taiwan: Chinese sheet and strip mills stepped up exports efforts after a (temporary) phase of market absence. Nevertheless, Europe seems not to be the top-priority for them at the moment. On the other hand, Taiwanese mills and service centres are price aggressive in Europe at the moment. Damstahl 2013, Damstahl - a member of the NEUMO-Ehrenberg-Group - 3 -
4 European Industry News Weak 2012 Results Situation for Mills will remain challenging this Year The European stainless steel crude steel production increased from 1.6 mill. t in Q3/12 to 1.7 mill. t in Q4/12. Compared to Q4/11, production was 6% lower. For the full year 2012, production dropped by around 2% to 7.4 mill. t (2011: 7.6 mill. t). The two Damstahl Countries, Germany and Sweden belonged to the biggest losers in Europe with double-digit reductions. It is expected that the stainless steel crude steel production will continue to fall in Germany due to the planned closure of melting in Krefeld until the end of For the full year 2012, the stainless steel crude steel production in the Damstahl Countries reached 1.9 mill. t (2011: 2.2 mill. t). Aperam: Steel shipments (including some electrical steels) were 407,000 t in Q4/12 (Q3/12: 410,000 t). In full year 2012, shipments amounted 1,683 mill. t (minus 4% yoy). Compared with Q3/12, sales increased by 7% in Q4/12 (to 1,294 mill. USD after 1,207 mill. USD). In full year 2012, sales were 5,261 mill. USD, a 17% decrease compared to 6,345 mill. USD in Aperam reported an operating loss of 45 mill. USD in Q4/12 (Q3/12: loss of 29 mill. USD). In full year 2012, the operating loss amounted 106 mill. USD after an operating profit of 45 mill. USD in Aperam shows an EBITDA of 214 mill. USD in 2012, a 40% decrease compared to 2011 (356 mill. USD). The company expects that EBITDA in Q1/13 will improve compared to Q4/12 due to higher market activity. Outokumpu Stainless: The results for Outokumpu (excluding Inoxum) were unsatisfactory in Results before taxes fell to minus 523 mill. EUR (after minus 244 mill. EUR in 2011). Sales were 10% down from 5,009 mill. EUR in 2011 to 4,538 mill. EUR in Particularly the weak market environment in HY2/12 contributed to this result. The Q4/12 operating result fell to minus 200 mill. EUR (after minus 89 mill. EUR in Q3/12). However, the total stainless steel deliveries for the full year 2012 increased by 2.7% to 1,428,000 t (2011: 1,391,000 t). For Q1/13, stainless steel deliveries are expected to be in the range from 680,000 to 750,000 tonnes. Outokumpu does not expect a substantial market price improvement before March The management emphasized that it s necessary to implement the targeted 200 mill. EUR of synergy effects after the merger with Inoxum. Outokumpu is out for further opportunities to make savings in 2013 the focus will be on cash flow generation and reduction of capital expenditures. In addition, Outokumpu intends to implement a tight working capital management. Outokumpu/Inoxum: Outokumpu is currently in the process of divesting AST in Italy as required by the European Commission. Besides Aperam, there is an (unconfirmed) number of 5 other interested investors, including financial investors as well as industrial investors (of which one is an Asian company). The asking price is 560 mill. EUR, but it is somewhat unlikely that Outokumpu will achieve this. A decision shall be made until mid-may.

7 Relevant Issues in Damstahl-Land Germany, Netherlands Germany: The current stainless steel demand in the German market is considered as acceptable. Order intake at distributors can be compared to Q1/12 and is better than in Q4/12. The current volatility of the Ni price has a negative impact on stockholders they will not continue with re-stocking, but switch into a wait and see mode, as stock levels are considered sufficient. Price competition in the European market is strong at the moment. Stocks: German stainless steel stock levels for cold rolled flat slightly fell from January 2012 to January 2013 but the stock-reach increased from 50 to 60 days as monthly sales volumes fell from over 11,000 tpm (sheet and strip) at the beginning of 2012 to less than 10,000 tpm in Q4/12. In case of bars, the development was quite dramatic. Stock levels increased by 10% over 2012 and sales volumes fell from over 8,000 tpm at the beginning of the year to less than 6,000 tpm in Q4/12. As a result, the stock-reach increased from 100 days to over 150 days in Damstahl: The company decided to invest around 4.5 mill. EUR in a fully automatic high rack warehouse for fittings and flanges in Langenfeld. Start-up of the new facility is planned for Q4/13. ZEW s (Centre for European Economic Research) indicator of economic sentiment for Germany increased by 24.6 points in January 2013 and further 16.7 points in February 2013, standing now at a level of 48.2 points. This is the third increase in a row and the highest level since May 2010, showing that this macro-economic think tank expects the economic situation to improve during the next months. GEA Group: The order intake of this major stainless steel consumer increased by 5.2% in 2012 to 5,901 mill. EUR (1,478 mill. EUR in Q4/12). Revenues for the full year 2012 grew by 5.6% to 5,720 mill. EUR and the operating EBIT increased by 7.1% to 562 mill. EUR, resulting in an operating EBIT margin of 9.8%. WMF: The cutlery and catering equipment producer has exceeded for the first time the one bn EUR turnover level in 2012 (1.03 bn EUR / +5% yoy). International sales increased by 6%. Sales to households (pots, pans, cutlery) and coffee machines grew over average, while sales to hotels and small household appliances declined in Netherlands: There is no growth seen in the Dutch stainless market by leading distributors, but an increase in inquiries indicates that more activity can be expected. However, there are considerable differences between industry segments. The construction industry is weak and will not improve in The oil and gas industry as well as the important petrochemical sector show signs of growth. Royal DSM, a life sciences and materials sciences firm based in the Netherlands and major user of stainless steel for chemical process equipment in the Netherlands has entered into an agreement to acquire Fortitech, a US-based provider of food ingredient blends, for 634 mill. USD in cash. According to Statistics Netherlands, the average output of the Dutch manufacturing industry was more than 1% up in December 2012 (yoy). The strongest increase occurred in the sectors petroleum, chemical, rubber and plastic products (+5%), while the output in the sector electronics and machinery, declined by nearly 8%.
