3 NLMK Group The core business of the NLMK Group is the manufacturing and sale of steel products. NLMK is vertically integrated and oversees the complete value chain, from the mining of raw materials to the delivery of products to consumers. Our competitive advantage starts with captive iron ore deposits situated in close proximity to the efficient main steelmaking site in Lipetsk, 400km South of Moscow. With a well developed transport infrastructure and convenient access to Black Sea and Baltic Sea, NLMK exports up to 60% of its products and sells in 70 countries around the globe. Throughout its development, NLMK has always been a pioneer when it comes to innovation, from the first continuous slab casting machine in the 1950s to achieving zero water effluent at the Lipetsk site recently. Pursuit of innovation and efficiency backed up by vertical integration has made NLMK the cost leader in the global steel industry. Oleg BAGRIN Executive Vice-President Chairman of the Strategy Committee NLMK is a growth company. We grow our business by developing upstream assets in cost efficient locations and finishing facilities close to our customers. Through downstream expansion and the development of the product portfolio, NLMK is able to meet evolving customer requirements in both developing and mature markets, such as the EU and US. Over the last five years we have invested about $8 billion in technology, safety and the environment. The priorities for NLMK s investments are: - to develop upstream assets to ensure 100% self-sufficiency in all key raw materials including coking coal, - to increase crude steel output by 35%, - to continue to improve product quality and broaden the product portfolio, - to improve energy efficiency and self-sufficiency, and - to decrease the environmental impact of our facilities. Safety and efficiency have always been at the heart of what we do. We aim to ensure compliance of our operating practices with the most rigorous health and safety standards. We create safe working environments by improving processes and investing in employee education. Our safety commitment goes beyond the boundaries of our production facilities. For many years we have been investing in the environmental projects to minimize our environmental footprint. Efficiency remains the cornerstone of our strategy. We help our customers to be competitive by offering lowest cost high quality steel. We strive to secure cost leadership positions in all markets where we operate. Not only do we control our costs through having raw materials and energy production in-house but also through maintaining lower conversion costs across the entire production chain. Innovation for us not only means introducing new products and processes, but also creating innovative and flexible business models. The European and the US flat product plants have now been fully integrated into the NLMK Group. NLMK Europe is a steel business in the heart of Western Europe with a unique competitive business model: the efficient production of high quality slabs supported by a captive supply of raw materials combined with flexible transformation facilities for rolling, coating, finishing and distributing high quality steel products located near to EU customers. 11,900,000 tons of steel production in 2011 2011 value added products ratio: 35% 2011 Revenue $11.73 billion 19,5% EBITDA margin in 2011 Over $8 billion of organic investments in 2007-2011 (including SIF capex) About 55,000 personnel in the Group Vertical integration 100% self sufficiency in iron ore concentrate 100% self sufficiency in coke 80% self sufficiency in scrap 50% self sufficiency in electricity
4 NLMK Group Tried and Tested NLMK is a vertically integrated Group controlling the entire steel production and sales chain, from the mining of raw materials, to delivering finished rolled-steel products to end-users. In the EU the success of this business model has been proven since 2002 when NLMK began supplying slabs to NLMK DanSteel A/S, the plate rolling mill in Denmark. It has achieved spectacular results in the increase of sales of high quality plate products across the North of Europe. After the creation of the Steel Invest and Finance JV between NLMK and Duferco, the European presence of the NLMK Group growed constantly. Since 2008 the facilities of NLMK EUrope have been operating under the re-rolling model a fact which ensured the sustainability during one of the most difficult periods for the steel industry. This model combined with high quality and low cost production allowed NLMK to come back to 100% utilization of its main site in Russia by May 2009, in the midst of the crisis. In parallel upgrading of the European facilities continued in order to enhance our offer to the European customers. Our key competitive advantages The major strengths of the Company are: world class assets with a highly competitive steel production, a high level of vertical integration, access to key raw materials in Russia, proximity to an extensive customer base in both developed and developing markets, a sales structure diversified across both products and geographies, a professional and experienced management team. Investment in best available technology This year NLMK has added 3.4 mtpa of steelmaking capacity by the commissioning of a new blast furnace and additional steel-making facilities in Lipetsk. These investments will enable us to satisfy growing requirements for high grade plate and automotive sheets from our customers globally. The new ladle furnaces and new RH degassing facility will also allow us to fully process all the BOF steel we produce and add a further range of new steel grades to our existing portfolio. With the launch of a new continuous steel casting machine at Lipetsk site, slabs of 310mm and 355mm thickness and up to 2200 mm are now available for the plate production facilities in Europe. The best equipment suppliers world-wide have participated in these projects ensuring the best available solutions to satisfy the needs of our customers.
