Q3 2019 highlights:

· Steel output decreased by 6% qoq (-16% yoy) to 3.7 m t due to ongoing repairs at NLMK Lipetsk blast furnace (BF) and basic oxygen furnace (BOF) operations. With output down, sales volumes decreased by 6% qoq to 4 m t (-9% yoy) due to the decrease in semi-finished product sales. At the same time, the share of high-value added product sales grew by 3 p.p. qoq to 33% (+2 p.p. yoy).

· Sales to “home” markets decreased by 6% qoq to 2.8 m t due to seasonal maintenance at NLMK Group’s European companies. Compared to Q3 2018, sales grew by 2% yoy, supported by higher sales ofslabs for the production of oil and gas pipes. The share of Group sales to “home” markets totalled 68% (-4 p.p. qoq; +4 p.p. yoy).

· Sales to export markets totalled 1.3 m t (+9% qoq), supported by higher slab sales to third parties. With NLMK’s European companies’ slab needs down due to maintenance, slab sales were redirected to third party customers. Compared to Q3 2018, sales decreased by 18% yoy due to lower export sales of pig iron against the backdrop of repairs at NLMK Lipetsk and lower demand for billets.

9M 2019 highlights:

· Steel output decreased by 9% yoy to 11.9 m t due to overhauls at NLMK Lipetsk BF and BOF operations in Q2-3 2019. Sales remained flat yoy at 12.9 m t, while the share of finished products increased by 1 p.p. to 64%. The share of HVA products also grew by 1 p.p. yoy to 30%.

· Sales to “home” markets grew to 8.5 m t (+5% yoy) due to increased demand for long products and slabs for the production of oil and gas pipes on the Russian market. The Group’s export sales decreased by 6% yoy to 4.5 m t.
