ArcelorMittal, the world’s largest and most global steel company, announced on April 28, 2009 results for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Analysis of results for three months ended March 31, 2009 versus three months ended December 31, 2008 and three months ended March 31, 2008

ArcelorMittal recorded a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 of $1.1 billion, or $(0.78) per share, as compared with net loss of $2.6 billion, or $(1.93) per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2008, and net income of $2.4 billion or $1.69 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2009 were $15.1 billion, a sharp decrease from sales of $22.1 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and $29.8 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The main reason for the decline continues to be the extreme weakness in demand for steel products in the first quarter of 2009 as a result of the global economic crisis, along with a steep fall in prices, leading to drastic curtailment of production.

ArcelorMittal recorded an operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 of $1.5 billion, as compared with operating loss of $3.5 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and operating income of $3.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The loss in the first quarter of 2009 resulted from charges amounting to $1.2 billion primarily related to write-downs of inventory. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company had recorded charges amounting to $4.4 billion related to write-downs of inventory and raw material supply contracts, and provisions for workforce reduction and litigation. Fourth quarter of 2008 operating results had also been negatively affected by impairment losses of $588 million, including impairments of $325 million consisting primarily of asset impairments of $74 million (at various ArcelorMittal USA sites), $60 million (Gandrange, France) and $54 million (Zumarraga, Spain) and reduction of goodwill of $264 million⁹.

Total steel shipments for the three months ended March 31, 2009 were 16.0 million metric tonnes as compared with steel shipments of 17.1 million metric tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 29.2 million metric tonnes for the three months ended March 31, 2008. As noted above, the sharp decrease year-on-year resulted from reduced steel production in response to falling demand amid the global economic crisis.

⁹As required by IFRS, a reduction of goodwill results from the recognition of deferred tax assets on acquired net operating losses not previously recognized in purchase accounting, primarily due to reorganizations in the Flat Carbon Europe segment ($65 million) and in the Long Carbon Americas and Europe segment ($70 million). In addition, certain goodwill amounts in Flat Carbon Europe were reduced in light of current and expected market conditions.

Depreciation expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 were $1.1 billion as compared with depreciation expenses of $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.

Losses from equity method investments and other income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 were $153 million, as compared to income of $386 million and $329 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.

Net interest expense (including interest expense and interest income), decreased to $304 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to $468 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to a reduction in average long-term debt, net of current portion plus payable to banks and current portion of long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and lower interest rates. (See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below). Net interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 amounted to $303 million. Foreign exchange and other net financing costs¹⁰ for the three months ended March 31, 2009 amounted to $265 million, as compared to a foreign exchange and other net financing gain of $64 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. Foreign exchange and other net financing costs for the three months ended March 31, 2008 amounted to $191 million. Losses related to the fair value of derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2009 amounted to $16 million, as compared with losses of $240 million and $242 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.

As a result of the operating losses, ArcelorMittal recorded an income tax benefit of $1,088 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to an income tax benefit of $1,126 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The effective tax rate (ETR) for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was 49.0% as compared with 30.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $596 million, with an ETR of 18.6%.

Minority interest for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $70 million as compared with minority interest of ($34) million and ($240) million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively. The decrease is due to net losses incurred at ArcelorMittal subsidiaries with minority interests.

¹⁰Foreign exchange and other net financing costs include bank fees, interest on pensions and impairments of financial instruments.

Analysis of segment operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2008

Total steel shipments in the Flat Carbon Americas segment were 3.6 million metric tonnes for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared with steel shipments of 3.9 million metric tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The decrease is due to the deterioration of global steel markets and the continuation of production cuts into the first quarter of 2009.

Sales also declined to $3.2 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with sales of $4.5 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008, due to both lower volumes and prices (a 25.4% decrease in average steel selling price).

The segment recorded an operating loss of $0.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with an operating loss of $0.4 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008 due to lower average selling prices and steel shipment volumes. The operating loss in the first quarter of 2009 and the fourth quarter of 2008 included charges of $0.5 billion in each quarter, primarily relating to write-downs of inventory and related contracts. The fourth quarter of 2008 operating results had also been negatively affected by a $74 million asset impairment charge at various locations of ArcelorMittal USA.

Total steel shipments in the Flat Carbon Europe segment were lower at 4.8 million metric tonnes for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared with 6.0 million metric tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The decrease is due to the deterioration of global steel markets and the continuation of production cuts into the first quarter of 2009.

Sales were also lower at $4.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with sales of $7.0 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008, due to both lower volumes and prices (a 12.3% decrease in average steel selling price).

The segment recorded an operating loss of $0.2 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with an operating loss of $1.4 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008. While shipment volumes and average selling prices were lower in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2008, the operating loss in the first quarter of 2009 included charges of $0.3 billion primarily related to write-downs of inventory (whereas the operating loss in the fourth quarter of 2008 had included charges of $1.8 billion related to write-downs of inventory and raw material supply contracts,

and provisions for workforce reductions). The operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2008 had also been affected by a $194 million reduction of goodwill¹¹.

Total steel shipments in the Long Carbon Americas and Europe segment were lower at 4.4 million metric tonnes for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with 4.6 million metric tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The decrease is due to the deterioration of global steel markets and the continuation of production cuts into the first quarter of 2009.

Sales were also lower at $3.8 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with $5.2 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008, due to lower volumes and prices (a 21.8% decrease in average steel selling price).

The segment recorded an operating loss of $0.2 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with an operating loss of $0.4 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008. While shipment volumes and average selling prices were lower in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2008, the operating loss in the first quarter of 2009 included charges of $0.2 billion primarily related to write-downs of inventory (whereas the operating loss in the fourth quarter of 2008 had included charges of $0.6 billion related to write downs of inventory and raw material supply contracts, and provisions for workforce reductions). The operating loss for the three months ended December 31, 2008 was also affected by $187 million of impairment expenses (consisting primarily of asset impairments of $60 million for Gandrange (France), and $54 million for Zumarraga (Spain), respectively) and $70 million reduction of goodwill¹².

Total steel shipments in the AACIS segment were higher at 2.8 million metric tonnes for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with 2.2 million metric tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Sales were lower at $1.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with $2.1 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008 due to lower prices (a 24.5% decrease in average steel selling price) despite the increase in shipments.

¹¹As required by IFRS, this amount consists in part of recognition of deferred tax assets on acquired net operating losses not previously recognized in purchase accounting in connection with a reorganization.

¹²As required by IFRS, a reduction of goodwill results from the recognition of deferred tax assets on acquired net operating losses not previously recognized in purchase accounting, which was in connection with a reorganization of legal entities.

The segment recorded an operating loss of $18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with an operating loss of $159 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. While the decrease in average selling prices more than offset the increase in shipping volumes, the operating loss for the first quarter of 2009 included charges of $0.1 billion primarily related to write-downs of inventory (whereas the operating loss in the fourth quarter of 2008 had included charges of $0.3 billion related to write downs of inventory and provisions for workforce reductions).

Total steel shipments in the Stainless Steel segment were lower at 315,000 metric tonnes for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with steel shipments of 365,000 metric tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The decrease is due to the deterioration of global steel markets and the continuation of production cuts into the first quarter of 2009.

Sales also decreased to $1.0 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with $1.3 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008, due to both lower volumes and prices (a 13.5% decrease in average steel selling price).

The segment recorded an operating loss of $169 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with an operating loss of $247 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. While shipment volumes and average selling prices were lower in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2008, the operating loss in the first quarter of 2009 included charges of $98 million primarily related to write-downs of inventory (whereas the operating loss in the fourth quarter of 2008 had included charges of $208 million related to write downs of inventory and provisions for workforce reductions).

Total steel shipments in the Steel Solutions and Services segment¹³ were marginally higher at 3.9 million metric tonnes in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with steel shipments of 3.7 million metric tonnes for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Sales in the Steel Solutions and Services segment were lower at $3.4 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with sales of $4.3 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to lower prices (a 24.9% decrease in average steel selling price).

¹³Steel Solutions and Services shipments are eliminated in consolidation as they represent shipments originating from other ArcelorMittal operating subsidiaries.

The segment recorded an operating loss of $170 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with an operating loss of $580 million for three months ended December 31, 2008. While average selling prices were lower in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2008, the operating loss in the first quarter of 2009 included charges of $105 million primarily related to write-downs of inventory (whereas the operating loss in the fourth quarter of 2008 had included charges of $717 million related to write-downs of inventory and provisions for workforce reductions and litigation).

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash provided by operating activities was $0.3 billion as compared with $5.9 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The operating loss (which included a non-cash gain of $503 million relating to the unwinding of a dynamic delta hedge on raw material purchases) was offset by $1.5 billion generated by working capital changes primarily due to lower inventories and trade accounts payable.

Capital expenditures during the three months ended March 31, 2009 decreased to $0.9 billion, as compared with $1.4 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $0.8 billion (which reflects $58 million in proceeds from the sale of a partial stake in Soteg) as compared to $0.2 billion for the three months ended December 31, 2008 (which reflected proceeds from a reduction of the stake held by the Company in a German equity investment and other available for sale securities). During the first quarter of 2009, the Company spent $64 million to acquire a 60% stake in Dubai Steel Trading Corporation (DSTC), as compared to $360 million spent on acquisitions during the fourth quarter of 2008 (which included $170 million to acquire Koppers Monessen in the US and $80 million for a joint venture in Gonvarri, Brazil).

As of March 31, 2009, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) amounted to $4.0 billion as compared to $7.6 billion at December 31, 2008. Long-term debt, net of current portion plus payable to banks and current portion of long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash at March 31, 2009, was $26.7 billion (as compared to $26.5 billion as at December 31, 2008). Gearing¹⁴ at March 31, 2009 was 48% as compared to 45% at December 31, 2008. As calculated in accordance with the terms of the €17 billion credit facility, $4 billion credit facility, and 2005 credit facility, the ratio of “Consolidated Total Net Borrowings” to “Consolidated EBITDA,” as defined, (based on the last twelve months’ “Consolidated EBITDA”) was higher at 1.3 X as compared to 1.1 X at December 31, 2008. Rotation days¹⁵ increased from 96 to 115 days primarily due to lower activity.

¹⁴Gearing is defined as (A) long-term debt, net of current portion, plus payable to banks and current portion of long-term debt, less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, divided by (B) total equity.

¹⁵Rotation days are defined as days of accounts receivable plus days of inventory minus days of accounts payable. Days of accounts payable and inventory are a function of cost of goods sold. Days of accounts receivable are a function of sales.

The Company had liquidity of $11.6 billion at March 31, 2009 (as compared with $13.4 billion at December 31, 2008) consisting of cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $4.0 billion and $7.6 billion available to be drawn under existing bank lines at March 31, 2009. This amount does not include the proceeds of $1.6 billion (€1.25 billion) from the convertible bond issued on April 1, 2009.

In April 2009, ArcelorMittal announced that it had successfully secured a further $1.5 billion of refinancing commitments during the second and third phase of its Forward Start syndication bringing the total amount to be refinanced under the Forward Start Facilities to approximately $6.3 billion¹⁶. The credit lines from these new facilities effectively extend existing financing from 2010 until 2012.

As a matter of record, ArcelorMittal announces the termination, effective today, of the share buyback programs authorized by the shareholders on May 13, 2008 and under which shares were repurchased until September 5, 2008.

The Company confirms its target to achieve “management gains” of $2 billion of sustainable SG&A and fixed cost reductions during 2009. As of the end of the first quarter of 2009, the Company is on track to meet this commitment and has achieved annualized savings of $1.2 billion.

¹⁶The receipt of the proceeds from the convertible bond gives rise to a mandatory reduction of the commitments under the Forward Start facilities

The Company expects second quarter 2009 operating results to be slightly positive.
