MT Arcelor Mittal New

Luxembourg, November 7, 2024 - ArcelorMittal (referred to as “ArcelorMittal” or the “Company” or the "Group") (MT (New York, Amsterdam, Paris, Luxembourg), MTS (Madrid)), the world’s leading integrated steel and mining company, today announced results1 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024.

3Q 2024 key highlights:

Safety focus: The Company-wide audit of safety by dss+ is now complete. It has provided the Group with a clear set of 6 recommendations which the Company is committed to implement. LTIF2 rate of 0.88x in 3Q 2024 and 0.68x in 9M 2024

Structurally higher margins and resilient operating results: Despite the challenging market environment, the Company continues to demonstrate resilient performance benefiting from regional diversification. Operating income of $0.7bn in 3Q 2024 (vs $1.0bn in 2Q 2024); EBITDA of $1.6bn in 3Q 2024 (vs. $1.9bn in 2Q 2024) with EBITDA/t of $118/t in 3Q 2024 ($133/t in 9M 2024) and well above the Group's long-term historical average18, reflecting structural improvements

Financial strength: Following the acquisition of c.28.4% stake in Vallourec6 for $1.0bn and $0.3bn share buybacks, net debt increased to $6.2bn at the end of the quarter (gross debt of $11.3bn and cash and cash equivalents of $5.1bn as of September 30, 2024) from $5.2bn as of June 30, 2024

Cash flow being reinvested for growth and shareholder returns: Over the past 12 months, the Company has generated investable cash flow7 of $2.8bn with a net $0.6bn allocated to M&A, $1.5bn invested on strategic growth capex projects8 and $2.0bn returns to ArcelorMittal shareholders while maintaining a strong balance sheet

Consistent shareholder returns: The Company will continue to return a minimum 50% of post-dividend FCF to shareholders through its share buyback programs. The Company repurchased 1.5% of its outstanding shares during 3Q 2024 (5.7% during the 9M 2024) bringing the total reduction in fully diluted share count to 37% since September 20209. To date, 73m shares from the current 85m share buy-back program have been repurchased

Outlook

Positive free cash flow outlook in 2024 and beyond: FY 2024 capex is expected to be within the previously communicated guidance range ($4.5bn-$5.0bn). The Company expects the year to date investment in working capital to reverse by year end, supporting the outlook for free cash flow generation. The completion of the Company’s strategic growth projects is expected to generate additional EBITDA and investable cash flow in the coming periods10,16. ArcelorMittal continues to optimize its decarbonization pathway to ensure that the Company can remain competitive and achieve an appropriate return on investment

Company believes current market conditions are unsustainable: China’s excess production relative to demand is resulting in very low domestic steel spreads (with the majority of producers loss making) and aggressive exports; steel prices particularly in Europe are well below the marginal cost curve. The Company expects apparent demand in our aggregate markets to be higher in 2H 2024 vs. 2H 2023 (reflecting no repeat of the destock that impacted Europe ASC in 2H 2023 and YoY demand growth in India and Brazil). As absolute inventory levels remain low, particularly in Europe, the Company remains optimistic that restocking activity will occur once real demand begins to recover

Positive on medium/long term outlook: Through its global asset portfolio, ArcelorMittal is uniquely positioned to capture the anticipated growth in steel demand over the medium/long-term; the Company’s strategic focus is on safety, delivering its growth projects, and consistently returning capital to shareholders whilst maintaining a strong balance sheet

Recently completed strategic projects are performing well: The Group‘s portfolio of approved strategic growth projects is estimated to increase EBITDA potential (relative to historical normalized levels) by $1.8bn10

• Vega CMC (Brazil): Increase galvanized and cold rolled coil capacity: 1st continuous annealed commercial coil delivered in June 2024; 1st coated coil produced in July 2024 and Magnelis® coil in September 2024
• India renewables: Project combining solar and wind power (1GW) began commissioning in June 2024, and commenced supply of power to AMNS India as of September 2024, with the JV benefiting from green power at a lower cost than accessing the grid
• Mexico HSM is performing well and expected to achieve targeted profitability in 2024 ($0.3bn EBITDA), despite the disruptions caused by the illegal blockade that impacted 2Q/3Q 2024 operations

Financial highlights (on the basis of IFRS1):

Commenting, Aditya Mittal, ArcelorMittal Chief Executive Officer, said:

“A key milestone during Q3 was the completion of the comprehensive dss+ workplace safety audit. We are now working to define the implementation plan for the six recommendations in an accelerated manner and will provide updates on the progress.

"Economic sentiment remains subdued, but we have delivered a resilient financial performance, reinforcing the structural strength of the Group. Apparent demand is expected to be stronger in the second half of this year compared with 2023, and inventory levels are low, indicating that re-stocking will occur when real demand recovers. The increased level of imports into Europe is a concern and stronger trade measures are urgently required to address this. Similarly, the CBAM needs further strengthening to ensure it fulfills its aim of ensuring European steelmakers can remain competitive versus higher-emissions imports.

“Our free cash flow generation enables us to continue to invest in the business for strategic growth and return capital to shareholders. Our first renewables project is now operating and started supplying power to AMNS India in September. The Vega CMC project is also fully up and running and produced its first Magnelis® coil in September.

“Globally, the medium to long-term outlook for steel is positive, and we are confident that ArcelorMittal will continue to harness its unique geographic presence and strong research and development capability to meet our stakeholders needs and produce smarter steels for people and planet.”

Safety and sustainable development

Health and Safety focus:

Protecting employee health and safety remains the overarching priority of the Company. LTIF rate of 0.88x in 3Q 2024 (vs. 0.57x in 2Q 2024 and 0.94x in 3Q 2023).

The Company-wide independent safety audit by dss+ is complete. It is a comprehensive independent safety audit, providing ArcelorMittal with a clear set of recommendations which the Company is committed to implement. See website for more details: dss+ safety audit recommendations

The Company is now defining the most effective ways to implement these recommendations in an accelerated manner. The first phase includes taking these recommendations to build customized, business unit- specific work plans, to be incorporated into their five-year planning cycle.

Own personnel and contractors – Lost Time Injury Frequency rate

Sustainable development highlights12:

• ArcelorMittal is progressing the engineering of its decarbonization projects globally to ensure that it delivers economic decarbonization. Whilst engineering is ongoing, the Company is engaging with the European Commission and member states on the measures required to support a low carbon competitive steel sector in Europe including more robust trade defences and an effective carbon border adjustment mechanism.
• ArcelorMittal continues to build its portfolio of renewable energy projects to secure and decarbonize its future electricity needs. In August 2024, ArcelorMittal Brasil signed contracts for the development of two solar energy projects with a combined capacity of 465MW, equivalent to 14% of its current electricity requirements in Brazil. ArcelorMittal will partner through JVs with two different renewable companies; Casa dos Ventos and Atlas Renewable Energy for the projects. This builds on the 554MW capacity wind power project in Brazil that is set to be commissioned in 2025. The total 1GW Brazil renewable projects are estimated to add ~$0.1 billion EBITDA benefit to ArcelorMittal. Group renewable portfolio is now 2.1GW (including India and investments in Brazil and Argentina17).

Analysis of results for 3Q 2024 versus 2Q 2024

Sales in 3Q 2024 declined by 6.5% to $15.2 billion as compared to $16.2 billion in 2Q 2024.

Operating income of $0.7 billion in 3Q 2024 was 36.6% lower as compared 2Q 2024 largely reflecting lower steel prices (-3.7%), seasonally lower steel shipments (-3.6%), impairments of $36 million related to the closure of the coke oven battery in Krakow (Poland) and exceptional items of $74 million due to restructuring costs at the same site.

EBITDA in 3Q 2024 decreased by 15.1% to $1,581 million as compared to $1,862 million in 2Q 2024, primarily due to weaker results in North America (negative price-cost effect) and Europe (seasonally lower steel shipments) offset in part by an improvement in the Brazil segment primarily due to higher volumes and lower costs.

Net interest cost of $8 million in 3Q 2024 is broadly stable as compared to $7 million in 2Q 2024 and continues to benefit from the capitalization of the interest cost related to certain long term capex investments.

ArcelorMittal recorded net income in 3Q 2024 of $287 million, lower as compared to $504 million in 2Q 2024. ArcelorMittal recorded an adjusted net income11 (i.e., excluding the impairments and exceptional items discussed above as well as mark-to-market loss on purchase of Vallourec shares6) in 3Q 2024 of $488 million as compared to $677 million in 2Q 2024.

ArcelorMittal's basic earnings per common share for 3Q 2024 was $0.37 (adjusted earnings per common share of $0.63) as compared to $0.63 in 2Q 2024 (adjusted earnings per common share of $0.85).

Net cash provided by operating activities during 3Q 2024 amounted to $1.4 billion, and includes a $0.1 billion release of working capital. Capex for the quarter amounted to $1.1 billion (including $0.3 billion spent on strategic growth projects), leading to a free cashflow of $0.3 billion. Cash outflows for the purchase of the c.28.4% stake in Vallourec for $1.0 billion and ongoing share buybacks ($0.3 billion), led to an increase in net debt to $6.2 billion on September 30, 2024, as compared to $5.2 billion on June 30, 2024.

Analysis of operations3

North America

* North America steel shipments include slabs sourced by the segment from Group companies (mainly the Brazil segment) and sold to the Calvert JV (eliminated in the Group consolidation). These shipments can vary between periods due to slab sourcing mix and timing of vessels: 3Q'24 577kt; 2Q'24 476kt; 3Q'23 393kt, 9M'24 1,534kt and 9M'23 1,227kt.

Sales in 3Q 2024 decreased by 12.7% to $2.8 billion, as compared to $3.2 billion in 2Q 2024 primarily on account of 8.3% decrease in average steel selling prices and 2.4% decrease in steel shipments.

As previously communicated on July 19, 2024, ArcelorMittal Mexico announced that it had reached a settlement with unions with an agreement to end an illegal blockade at the site. The electric arc furnace EAF (for slab production) and hot strip mill resumed normal operations in August 2024. As a result, 3Q 2024 performance was impacted by ~0.4Mt production and EBITDA by $0.1 billion (same impacts as 2Q 2024).

Operating income in 3Q 2024 decreased by 32.2% to $229 million as compared to $338 million in 2Q 2024, primarily due to a negative price-cost impact.

EBITDA in 3Q 2024 of $358 million was 23.5% lower as compared to $467 million in 2Q 2024.

Brazil13

Sales in 3Q 2024 remained broadly stable at $3.2 billion as compared to 2Q 2024, primarily due to a 4.1% increase in steel shipments largely offsetting a 4.7% decline in average steel selling prices.

Operating income in 3Q 2024 of $414 million was 27.3% higher as compared to $325 million in 2Q 2024, due to higher shipments and a positive price-cost effect (lower costs more than offsetting lower selling prices).

EBITDA in 3Q 2024 increased by 20.3% to $497 million as compared to $413 million in 2Q 2024.

Europe

Sales in 3Q 2024 declined by 8.7% to $7.1 billion, as compared to $7.8 billion in 2Q 2024, primarily due to a 8.2% decline in steel shipment volumes due to seasonality and maintenance in the long products and a 1.5% decline in average steel selling prices.

Operating income in 3Q 2024 was $12 million as compared to $194 million in 2Q 2024 primarily due to seasonally lower steel shipments, impairments of $36 million related to the closure of the coke oven battery in Krakow (Poland) and exceptional items of $74 million due to restructuring costs at the same site.

EBITDA in 3Q 2024 of $403 million decreased by 12.7% as compared to $462 million in 2Q 2024 primarily due to seasonally lower steel shipments.

India and JVs

Income from associates, joint ventures and other investments (excluding impairments and exceptional items, of which none in the periods) for 3Q 2024 was $162 million as compared to $181 million in 2Q 2024, primarily due to lower contributions from AMNS India.

ArcelorMittal has investments in various joint venture and associate entities globally. The Company considers Calvert (50% equity interest) and AMNS India (60% equity interest) joint ventures to be of particular strategic importance, warranting more detailed disclosures to improve the understanding of their operational performance and value to the Company.

AMNS India

Sales in 3Q 2024 declined by 2.8% to $1.5 billion as compared to $1.6 billion in 2Q 2024, primarily due to lower average steel selling prices.

EBITDA during 3Q 2024 declined by 31.3% to $162 million as compared to $237 million in 2Q 2024, driven by a negative price-cost effect.

Calvert14

Sales in 3Q 2024 declined by 15.3% to $1.1 billion as compared to $1.2 billion in 2Q 2024 primarily due to lower shipments driven by weaker demand.

EBITDA during 3Q 2024 of $126 million was 24.2% lower as compared to $166 million in 2Q 2024, primarily due to lower steel shipments and a negative price-cost effect.

Sustainable Solutions15

Sales in 3Q 2024 declined by 12.1% to $2.5 billion as compared to $2.9 billion in 2Q 2024.

Operating income in 3Q 2024 was lower at $17 million as compared to $55 million in 2Q 2024, mainly in the Projects business, impacted by seasonality.

EBITDA in 3Q 2024 of $55 million was 42.1% lower as compared to $95 million in 2Q 2024.

Mining

Note: Mining segment comprises iron ore operations of ArcelorMittal Mines Canada (AMMC) and ArcelorMittal Liberia.

Sales in 3Q 2024 declined by 8.0% to $589 million as compared to $641 million in 2Q 2024 primarily due to lower iron ore reference prices (-10.8%).

Iron ore production in 3Q 2024 increased by 13.1% to 6.6Mt as compared to 5.9Mt in 2Q 2024 primarily due to a recovery in ArcelorMittal Mines Canada which had been impacted by wildfires in the Port Cartier region in June leading to Port disruption, as well as maintenance.

Operating income in 3Q 2024 declined by 14.6% to $128 million as compared to $150 million in 2Q 2024 driven by lower iron ore reference prices offset in part by lower costs as production volumes recovered.

EBITDA in 3Q 2024 of $193 million was 11.0% lower as compared to $216 million in 2Q 2024.

Other recent developments

On October 11, 2024, ArcelorMittal announced that it had entered into a definitive Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Nippon Steel Corporation (“NSC”) pursuant to which ArcelorMittal will purchase NSC’s 50% equity interest in the AM/NS Calvert Joint Venture (the “Transaction”). The Transaction has been entered into at the request of NSC to address regulatory concerns pursuant to its agreed acquisition of US Steel. The Transaction is subject to NSC completing its pending acquisition of US Steel, which is subject to various other regulatory requirements.

Under the terms of the agreement, ArcelorMittal will pay $1 consideration for the Transaction; further, NSC will inject cash and forgive partner loans in an amount estimated to be approximately $0.9 billion.

There are no assurances or guarantees that NSC will complete its acquisition of US Steel. Should NSC not complete its acquisition of US Steel, then the Agreement will not come into effect and the AM/NS Calvert JV will continue.

Vallourec share price increased to €17.20 as of March 31, 2024, as compared to €14.64 contractually agreed at the signing of the share price agreement for 65.2 million shares on March 12, 2024 generating a non-cash mark-to-market gain of $181 million as of March 31, 2024. The Vallourec share price decreased to €14.76 as of June 30, 2024 (causing a non-cash mark-to-market loss of $173 million in 2Q 2024), and decreased to €13.47 as at the date of the finalization of the acquisition on August 6, 2024 (causing a non-cash mark-to-market loss of $91 million in 3Q 2024). In accordance with IFRS, the Company recognized this net loss as a decrease in the investment cost to reflect the fair value of the forward at acquisition date.
7. Investable cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less maintenance/normative capex. From September 30, 2023 to September 30, 2024, the net cash provided by operating activities totalled $5.7 billion. Total capex during this period was $4.7 billion of which maintenance/normative capex was $2.9 billion, strategic capex of $1.5 billion and decarbonization of $0.3 billion.
8. 3Q 2024 included decarbonization capex of $0.1 billion, strategic growth capex of $0.3 billion and maintenance/normative capex of $0.7 billion. 9M 2024 includes decarbonization capex of $0.2 billion, strategic growth capex of $1.0 billion and maintenance/normative capex of $2.1 billion.

Strategic projects capex in 9M 2024 primarily included investments for the Liberia expansion project (first concentrate), the renewables energy project in India and Mardyck electrical steels.
9. September 2020 was the inception date of the ongoing share buyback programs. The Company has repurchased 47 million shares during 9M 2024; totalling 73 million shares from the current 85 million share buyback program.
10. Following the completion of detailed engineering, the Monlevade expansion project in Brazil has been put “on hold” (seeking lower capex intensive options). The Company anticipates approving projects of a similar scale (capex and EBITDA impact) during its forthcoming strategic planning cycle, hence no change to the expected $1.8 billion impact on EBITDA from strategic growth investments. Out of the total $1.8 billion EBITDA potential, it is considered that $0.3 billion has been achieved to date from the completion of the Mexico HSM project on an observed run-rate basis. Vallourec transaction closed in 3Q 2024 and ArcelorMittal’s c.28.4% share of consensus 2025 net income (based on consensus figures from a panel of independent analysts) is ~$0.15 billion. Together with Italpannelli acquisition expected to contribute $0.2 billion to EBITDA.
11. See Appendix 4 for reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted basic earnings per share.
12. XCarb® is designed to bring together all of ArcelorMittal’s reduced, low and zero-carbon products and steelmaking activities, as well as wider initiatives and green innovation projects, into a single effort focused on achieving demonstrable progress towards carbon neutral steel. Alongside the new XCarb® brand, we have launched three XCarb® initiatives: the XCarb® innovation fund, XCarb® green steel certificates and XCarb® recycled and renewably produced for products made via the Electric Arc Furnace route using scrap. The Company is offering green steel using a system of certificates (XCarb® green certificates). These are issued by an independent auditor to certify tonnes of CO2 savings achieved through the Company’s investment in decarbonization technologies in Europe. Net-zero equivalence is determined by assigning CO2 savings certificates equivalent to CO2 per tonne of steel produced in 2018 as baseline. The certificates relate to the tonnes of CO2 saved in total, as a direct result of the decarbonization projects being implemented across a number of its European sites.
13. On March 9, 2023, ArcelorMittal announced that following receipt of customary regulatory approvals it had completed the acquisition of Companhia Siderúrgica do Pecém (‘CSP’) in Brazil for an enterprise value of approximately $2.2 billion.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking information and statements about ArcelorMittal and its subsidiaries. These statements include financial projections and estimates and their underlying assumptions, statements regarding plans, objectives and expectations with respect to future operations, products and services, and statements regarding future performance. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the words “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “target” or similar expressions. Although ArcelorMittal’s management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, investors and holders of ArcelorMittal’s securities are cautioned that forward-looking information and statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond the control of ArcelorMittal, that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially and adversely from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements. These risks and uncertainties include those discussed or identified in the filings with the Luxembourg Stock Market Authority for the Financial Markets (Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) made or to be made by ArcelorMittal, including ArcelorMittal’s latest Annual Report on Form 20-F on file with the SEC. ArcelorMittal undertakes no obligation to publicly update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Non-GAAP/Alternative Performance MeasuresThis press release also includes certain non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures. ArcelorMittal presents EBITDA and EBITDA/tonne, free cash flow (FCF), adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share and the ratio of net debt/LTM EBITDA which are non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures, as additional measures to enhance the understanding of its operating performance. As announced previously, the definition of EBITDA has been revised to include income from share of associates, JVs and other investments (excluding impairments and exceptional items if any, of associates, JVs and other investments) because the Company believes this information provides investors with additional information to understand its results, given the increasing significance of its joint ventures. ArcelorMittal believes such indicators are relevant to provide management and investors with additional information. ArcelorMittal also presents net debt and change in working capital as additional measures to enhance the understanding of its financial position, changes to its capital structure and its credit assessment. Investable cashflow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less maintenance/normative capex, and the Company thus believes that it represents a cashflow that is available for allocation at management’s discretion. The Company’s guidance as to additional EBITDA estimated to be generated from certain projects and with respect to working capital for the fourth quarter of 2024, is based on the same accounting policies as those applied in the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. ArcelorMittal is unable to reconcile, without unreasonable effort, such guidance to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the financial impact of items impacting comparability. For the same reasons, ArcelorMittal is unable to address the significance of the unavailable information. Non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures should be read in conjunction with, and not as an alternative to, ArcelorMittal's financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Comparable IFRS measures and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures are presented herein.
