Outlook for 2010
◦ Pricing affected by raw material costs, growth in emerging markets and moderate recovery in
mature markets
◦ Russian and Ukrainian mills expected to continue running at high operating rates, utilisation
of overseas assets increased in response to measured improvements in demand
◦ Steel sales redirected from export market to Russian domestic market following gradual
demand improvement
◦ Market situation remains volatile
◦ Favourable fundamental trends being offset by lag effect between raw material price increase
and delayed growth of steel sales prices
◦ Global demand for long products is expected to continue to strengthen on the back of
infrastructure investments driven by various governments’ stimulus packages, designed to
combat economic recession
◦ Outlook for 2Q 2010
◦ 2Q10 EBITDA is expected to be within the range of US$725-825m
