Market & Company EAF and BOF Crude Steel Production Regions ranked according to EAF production share in 2015 EAF share in global crude steel production RHI revenue & volumes in BOF and EAF (FY 2015) #1 Middle East 92% 1995 2005 2015 500m 500 kt #2 Africa 68% World 33% 32% 28% #3 North America 61% 400m 400 kt World w/o China 34% 40% 43% #4 India 55% 300m 300 kt #5 Europe 42% World w/o China CAGR 1995-2015 #6 South America 33% 200m 200 kt EAF steel production: 2.3% #7 Asia excl.

Market & Company RHI at one glance Sales Production Headquarter Technology centre Mines and raw material production Key facts RHI is a vertically integrated global provider of highgrade refractory products, systems and services Revenues of 1,753 million and operating EBIT of 124 million in 2015 32 productions sites and more than 60 sales offices with roughly 8,000 employees (>150 in R&D) Global partner for over 10,000 customers in more than 180 countries Technology leadership with close to market R&D facilities and tailor-made products Selected key customers Steel Cement Glass Nonferrous 9 28

Market & Company Market Environment Steel Steel global crude steel production down 1.9% vs. 1H/15 -) global crude steel production declined in all important regions worldwide with the exception of India and the US -) despite a gradual economic recovery in Europe, steel production in the European Union fell by 6.1% (esp. the United Kingdom saw a strong decline of roughly 36% following the closure of the steel plant in Redcar) -) the stable steel production in the US reflects the effectiveness of the anti-dumping duties (introduced early 2016) but up 6.1% in 2Q/16 vs. preceding quarter -) after the slump in 1Q/16, global steel production recovered in the 2Q/16 as prices picked up significantly (prices for hot rolled coil had plummeted dramatically by roughly 40% in 2015) -) especially in China it turned out that capacities which had allegedly been shut down are quickly restarted as soon as a certain price level is reached -) after a new record volume of roughly 112 million tons of steel had been exported from China in 2015, exports increased by roughly another 9% in 1H/16 vs. 1H/15 in million tons 1H/16 1H/15 y/y 2Q/16 1Q/16 q/q China 399.5 404.0 (1.1)% 208.6 190.9 9.3% World ex China 395.3 405.9 (2.6)% 200.6 194.7 3.0% thereof EU28 82.7 88.1 (6.1)% 41.6 41.1 1.2% thereof US 40.1 40.0 0.2% 20.4 19.7 3.6% thereof India 46.4 45.2 2.7% 23.5 22.9 2.6% World 794.8 809.9 (1.9)% 409.2 385.6 6.1% 10 28

Index Market & Company overview Strategy Key financials Annex 12 28

Strategy Strategy 2020 Market challenges Reduced global growth with significant regional differences Strategic answer Selective business expansion with a focus on growth regions and attractive market niches Competitive pressure due to a focus of customers on their operating costs Differentiation through technology leadership and top-class service in strategic segments Increasingly volatile demand by customers Alignment of the operating set-up to structural market changes Low price level for raw materials and basic materials Raw material integration completed focus on balancing in-house supply / external purchases Targets 2020 Revenue to roughly 2.0 to 2.2 billion without acquisitions EBIT margin of more than 10% Return on capital employed of more than 12% All business units should at least earn their cost of capital and generate positive free cash flow 13 28

Strategy Selective business expansion with a focus on growth regions and attractive market niches India as a strong growth driver 200 The IMF predicts the most dynamic growth in the advanced economies for the US (2.5%), and in the emerging markets for India (7.5%). 175 150 125 100 ORL CAGR of 15% excl. ORL acqusition These two countries were already the two largest markets for RHI in the year 2015, with revenue totaling 186 million in India and 165 million in the US. Based on this strong presence, RHI should benefit disproportionately from the development in these regions and gain further market share. 75 50 25 0 600 500 2005 2010 2015 Steel consumption (kg per capita) Non-basic mixes and a further expansion of the flow control business are considered strategically attractive market segments. 400 300 200 100 0 EU28 EU28 USA Brazil Russia India China 14 28

Strategy Differentiation through technology leadership and top-class service in strategic segments RHI continuously aligns its offer to specific customer requirements. This means differentiation based on technology leadership and service in strategically important segments: develop into a complete system supplier based on R&D, partnerships and selective acquisitions offer packages from ladle to the mold in the steel industry extend automation using machines, manipulators and sensors connect customer processes with RHI systems in line with the Industry 4.0 approach For price-sensitive customer segments, the offer will be extended based on the use of lower priced raw materials and a higher degree of product and service standardization. 15 28

Strategy Alignment of the operating set-up to structural market changes The current market environment is characterized by: structural excess capacities in many customer industries an aggressive export strategy of Chinese steel producers volatile demand patterns pressure on the market prices Therefore it is necessary to keep stringent control over costs along the entire value chain and aligning production capacity to local demand. EMEA Americas Revenue generation compared to production capacities per region Revenue Production capacities RHI is working on further optimizing the plant structure, which could lead to an adjustment of production capacities in Europe in 2016. Asia In addition, several cost measures in the sales and general administrative departments have been defined. 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 16 28

Strategy Raw material integration completed focus on balancing in-house supply / external purchases Access to and availability of high-quality raw materials are decisive because of their significant influence on refractory product performance (e.g. basic mixes in EAF). 1.000 900 Price development of fused magnesia and dead-burned magnesia (in US-Dollar per ton) USD per ton Raw material accounts for 60% of the total production costs at RHI. Roughly 70% of the global magnesite deposits are located in China, North Korea and Russia. RHI therefore considers the access to its own raw materials a strategic competitive advantage and has invested in increasing the level of self-supply with magnesia raw materials in recent years. Today, RHI considers the target of strategic raw material integration accomplished. The priority is balancing the strategic use of internal magnesia supply and external purchasing and selling options. 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 2003 2006 2009 2012 2015 FM DBM 17 28

Key financials Outlook Outlook FY 2016 Despite the challenging market environment, the Management Board of RHI AG is increasing the outlook due to the positive earnings development in the first half of the year. Consequently, an operating EBIT margin of roughly 8% is expected for the full year 2016, which corresponds to an increase by roughly one percentage point compared with the previous year. Due to the development in the customer industries, RHI is currently working on further optimizing the plant structure, which could lead to an adjustment of production capacities in Europe in the current financial year. In addition, different cost measures have been defined in the sales and general administrative departments. The planned continuation of the reduction of working capital should support the generation of free cash flow and lead to a further reduction of net debt. 24 28
