15 Outline 1. Outokumpu strategy roadmap 2. Update on integration 3. Short term improvement: P300 and P Raw material procurement and hedging strategy 15

16 Raw material procurement focus 2013 Bundling purchasing power with a global, lean and agile organization Synergy and P150 savings Leveraging purchasing power to increase discounts Using the right raw materials efficiently in a global production network Cash Flow contribution Increasing payment terms and consigment stocks Optimizing supplier finance programs Metal Risk Management Global organization Metal Desk in Procurement is implementing and operating new hedging system Building superior purchasing capabilities and knowledge of supplier markets Implementing a daily nickel position to balance out nickel intake and sales Keeping link to cross-functional partners through site presence 16

17 Stainless volatility Mill Orders Trade Stocks Nickel Price

18 Timing gains / losses from alloy surcharge Timing Gain on Nickel Gain Nickel market price Purchasing Base illustrative Invoicing Base time Delivery Date Timing gains or losses arise from difference between purchase price and invoice price of metal components Purchasing Base (period which determines alloy purchase price for scrap or prime material supplies) is typically 100 days before date of delivery Invoicing Base (period which determines AAF for stainless steel customer) is 40 days before the date of delivery The illustration shows that timing gains arise when metal market prices increase (and vice versa) Timing gains and losses arise from all alloys, but are significant usually in Ni, Cr, Mo and Fe Timing Loss on Nickel Loss Purchasing Base illustrative Invoicing Base Nickel market price time Delivery Date 18

19 Is the current alloy surcharge appropriate to manage volatility? Surcharges (as e.g. applicable in Europe and the US) are unable to match timing of nickel purchases with sale of stainless steel Lead time in production does not correspond to pricing periods Change of lead times due to economic up and downswings are not managed Customer order activity is not equal in periods of rising or falling nickel prices timing gains or losses are not balanced even on a long time horizon Main perceived problem: since surcharge is known in advance, stainless buyers may choose to adjust ordering behavior in line with expected stainless price changes due to surcharge Competitors from Asia for instance offer on a fixed price basis Besides the surcharge system more and more contracts are based on fixed price where timing differences between raw material purchase and pricing of products to customers are even more evident 19

20 Outokumpu s way forward to manage metal related risks Offer a variety of pricing models which have one element in common: pricing period is in the future so that metal risk can be hedged Alloy surcharge Daily (updated) alloy surcharge Fixed price sale for short and long-term deliveries Price in effect (fixing any time between order and delivery) Offer alloy surcharge system only to customers who are honoring the contract and the pricing period There is the option that Outokumpu offers fixed prices to end-users/distributors and then hedge nickel component of pricing exposure 20

21 Cornerstones of the new hedging concept Minimize valuation risk by moving raw material pricing forward to m+1 or m+2 Hedging via Suppliers Close communication between Metal Desk in Raw Material Procurement and the Sales forces worldwide Create a risk culture for raw materials Hedging guideline Updated guideline with definition of risk and strategy how to manage it. Price risk management Nickel/Chrome/ Molybdenum position as a daily balance of all intakes (purchases) and extakes (sales) Daily live position tracking One system to track and measure efficency Risk committee to supervise Sets the risk limits and other thresholds and controls the metal price risk Updated guideline with definition of risk and strategy how to manage it 21
