Luxembourg, April 30, 2025 - 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 period ended March 31, 2025.

1Q 2025 key highlights:

Safety focus: Protecting employee health and well-being remains an overarching priority of the Company. LTIF rate of 0.63x in 1Q 2025. dss+ safety audit recommendations implementation phase is underway

Delivering higher margins than in prior cycles: The Group's results are showing resilience; the benefits of asset optimization and a diversified asset portfolio are supporting higher and more stable margins than in prior cycles. Despite the impact of unsustainably low spreads, 1Q 2025 EBITDA of $1.6bn with EBITDA/tonne of $116/t compares favorably against low points of previous cycles. 1Q 2025 net income is $0.8bn

Stronger operations: Record production and shipments from Liberia iron ore operations supporting strong Mining segment performance; European mills operating consistently supporting good cost performance; North America back to normalized operating levels

Seasonal investment in working capital: A typical seasonal working capital investment of $1.7bn during the quarter led to a free cash outflow of $1.4bn and an increase in net debt¹⁰ to $6.7bn (while liquidity stood at $10.8bn⁸)

Investing for growth and consistently rewarding shareholders all whilst maintaining a strong balance sheet: Over the past 12 months, the Company has generated net cash provided by operating activities of $4.6bn and spent maintenance/normative capex of $2.7bn resulting in investable cash flow of $1.9bn. The Company then invested $1.2bn on strategic growth capex projects, returned $1.2bn to ArcelorMittal shareholders and allocated a net $0.9bn to M&A

Strategic focus:

ArcelorMittal's optimized asset portfolio and repositioned balance sheet places it in a much stronger position to navigate macro uncertainty whilst maintaining its strategic course

Delivering strategic growth projects: good momentum

The Group's strong financial position enables the consistent funding of organic growth projects to support future profitability and investable cashflow. The Group‘s high return strategic growth projects, together with impact of Vallourec and Italpannelli are expected to increase EBITDA potential by $1.8bn⁷, with a $0.6bn benefit to EBITDA targeted in 2025

Key projects for 2025 are on track:

Liberia iron ore expansion project to 20Mt is running on time and budget. The commissioning of full 15Mt concentrator capacity is on track by mid-2025 with full 20Mt capacity run-rate targeted by end 2025. 10Mt shipments expected in 2025, and incremental EBITDA of $0.2bn expected in 2025 and $450m at full capacity assuming current long-term prices
New state-of-the-art 1.5Mt EAF at AMNS Calvert (US) commissioning is underway. This will be the first EAF in North America capable of supplying exposed automotive grades with domestically melted and poured material with first heat expected in 2Q 2025
Development of AMNS India continues to gather momentum. The phase 1 expansion of Hazira to 15Mt by the end of 2026 remains on track. 2025 will see the commissioning of new high added-value downstream facilities (CGL3, PLTCM and CGAL) particularly focused on steel for automotive customers. Land acquisition has commenced in Rajayyapeta, Andhra Pradesh, where a 7.3Mtpa state-of the art integrated greenfield steel plant is planned

Economic decarbonization:

The Company has been encouraged by the European Commission's (EC) Steel and Metals Action Plan which has shown an understanding of the critical issues i.e. trade defenses, strengthened CBAM and demand for low carbon emission steel. The recently enhanced safeguards and new anti-dumping measures support the outlook for domestic producers relative to importers
The Action Plan now needs to be supported by rapid implementation; of critical importance is visibility on the provision of industry access to competitive energy, an effective CBAM and Trade defenses. At that point, the Company will be able to review its investment priorities for the Europe segment
The Company continues to optimize its decarbonization pathway, focused on generating a return on investment with related capex to be contained within the annual capex envelope of $4.5-$5.0bn

Consistent shareholder returns:

Since September 2020⁶, the Company has successfully completed 9 separate buyback programs, reducing fully diluted shares outstanding by 38%
As per its capital allocation and return policy, in addition to its base dividend ($0.55/sh)⁹, the Company will continue to return a minimum of 50% of post-dividend annual free cash flow to shareholders
Following completion of the most recent 85 million share buyback (SBB) program on April 1, 2025, a new 2025-2030 SBB program was announced. The Company will repurchase shares in a series of "tranches" through 2030. The first 10 million tranche commenced immediately upon announcement

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

"Across the Group our people are focused on implementing the recommendations of the dss+ safety audit, and a detailed update was included in our recent Sustainability report. While this is a three-year transformation plan, I am encouraged by the first steps that have been taken. We can already see the positive impact this is having across our operations, which we will build on over the remainder of this year and beyond.

From a financial perspective, it was another quarter of consistent delivery and robust margins, particularly given the geopolitical challenges, with EBITDA of $116 per tonne. We continue to execute our strategic growth agenda which is expected to deliver an incremental $1.8 billion EBITDA by 2027. A notable feature of the quarter was the strong performance in Liberia, which achieved record iron ore production and shipments.

Looking ahead, a measure of caution about the short-term outlook is appropriate. Heightened uncertainty around the terms of global trade is hurting business confidence and risks causing further economic disruption if not quickly resolved. It is encouraging however that around the world, governments are committed to supporting their domestic manufacturing industries. In the US, Section 232 tariffs are supporting higher prices and spreads, and in Europe the Steel and Metals Action Plan is a much needed and important signal that Europe will take action to support strategically important industries like steel from unfair competition. Swift implementation of the plan is now required to ensure European steelmaking can regain competitiveness and continue to invest for the future.

As a global Company with operations in most major regions, exports are a relatively modest part of our sales and we will continue to focus on meeting the requirements of our domestic markets, including in the high-growth attractive developing economies. Our strong balance sheet and diverse business model allows us to continue to invest in growth and deliver consistent shareholder returns, with the recent share buyback announcement proof of strategy in action."

Safety and sustainable development

Health and Safety focus:

Protecting employee health and well-being remains an overarching priority of the Company. LTIF rate of 0.63x in 1Q 2025 (vs 0.79x in 4Q 2024 and 0.61x in 1Q 2024).

Sustainable development highlights:

ArcelorMittal continues to focus on economic decarbonization. In Europe, the Company has been encouraged by the Steel and Metals Action Plan which has shown an understanding of the urgency of the situation on trade defense, the requirement for a strengthened Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and demand for low carbon emission steel. This plan now needs to be supported by rapid action to ensure recovery of market share lost to imports due to global excess capacity and to improve demand and cost-competitiveness of low-carbon emission steel.
ArcelorMittal is engaging with the European Commission and other European leaders to build on the momentum already achieved. Furthermore, in Spain, the decarbonization projects are progressing (1.1Mt EAF in Gijon and expansion to 1.6Mt production in Sestao).
The Company intends for all decarbonization-related capex to be contained within the annual capex envelope of $4.5-$5.0 billion.

Analysis of results for 1Q 2025 versus 4Q 2024

Sales were broadly stable at $14.8 billion in 1Q 2025 as compared to $14.7 billion in 4Q 2024.

Operating income of $825 million in 1Q 2025 was 55.9% higher as compared to 4Q 2024 which was impacted by impairment charges² of $80 million and exceptional items³ of $142 million.

EBITDA in 1Q 2025 declined by 4.5% to $1,580 million as compared to $1,654 million in 4Q 2024, primarily due to seasonality in Brazil, negative price-cost effect in Europe and lower contribution from India and JVs, offset in part by an improvement in North America (mainly due to improved Mexico results post illegal blockade), including higher volumes and positive price-cost effect.

ArcelorMittal recorded a net income of 1Q 2025 of $805 million as compared to a net loss of $390 million in 4Q 2024 (adjusted net income of $404 million in 4Q 2024)⁵primarily due to higher operating income as discussed above, foreign exchange gains (largely due to the US$ depreciation against most currencies) and lower taxes⁴.

Net cash used in operating activities during 1Q 2025 amounted to $0.4 billion, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $2.5 billion in 4Q 2024, reflecting a $1.7 billion seasonal investment of working capital in 1Q 2025 compared to a working capital release of $1.6 billion in 4Q 2024. Capex for the quarter amounted to $1.0 billion (including $0.3 billion spent on strategic growth projects) compared to $1.1 billion (including $0.3 billion spend on strategic growth projects) in 4Q 2024.

Free cash outflow of $1.4 billion and share repurchases of $0.1 billion resulted in an increase in net debt to $6.7 billion on March 31, 2025, as compared to $5.1 billion on December 31, 2024.

Sales in 1Q 2025 were broadly stable at $7.2 billion as compared to $7.1 billion in 4Q 2024, primarily due to a 4.4% increase in steel shipment volumes offset by a 2.0% decline in average steel selling prices.

Operating income in 1Q 2025 of $90 million was 19.2% lower as compared to $111 million in 4Q 2024 primarily due to a negative price-cost effect offset in part by higher steel shipments.

EBITDA in 1Q 2025 of $370 million was 11.1% lower as compared to $416 million in 4Q 2024, as discussed above.

India and JVs

Income from associates, joint ventures and other investments was lower in 1Q 2025 at $99 million, as compared to $194 million in 4Q 2024 primarily due to a lower income from our European investees and seasonality.

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.

Recent development

The first phase of AMNS India's expansion at Hazira to 15 million tonnes is on track with completion expected by the end of 2026. AMNS India's mix and profitability is expected to improve as it commissions various value-added downstream facilities such as CGL3, PLTCM and CGAL by the end of 2025 while trademark ArcelorMittal products such as Magnelis and Optigal are gaining traction in the Indian market. Further plans are under development to build a 2.5Mtpa compact strip production mill to increase Hazira production capacity to 18Mtpa. On March 28, 2025, AMNS India announced the beginning of the acquisition of a land parcel in Anakapalli district, Andhra Pradesh, as part of its plans to set up a state-of-the-art integrated steel plant in Rajayyapeta. The initial payment for acquiring the land has been made, and possession is expected soon, paving the way for the Company to commence work on the 7.3Mtpa greenfield project. The Company has also acquired 2 additional high-grade iron ore mines in Chhattisgarh to further enhance its raw material security as requirements increase.
On March 31, 2025, further to the announcement released on the Stock Exchange News Service ("SENS") of the JSE Limited on March 19, 2025, ArcelorMittal South Africa informed shareholders that the decision to wind down its Long Steel Business will be deferred for an initial period of at least 6 months, up to August 31, 2025.

Outlook

The macro-outlook has evolved over the past 3 months. Delays in finding solutions for trade disruptions may lead to downside risks to the apparent steel consumption forecasts that were presented by the Company on February 6, 2025, particularly for the US and China. In Europe: as anticipated, steel spreads have recovered after reaching unsustainably low levels, with the outlook supported by the European Commission's Steel and Metals Action Plan and enhanced safeguards against imports and the German Infrastructure Fund. In the US, S232 tariffs are supporting prices. In India: robust underlying demand continues, with newly approved safeguards expected to support prices. In China: low spreads persist due to excess capacity, with further stimulus measures required to support economic growth targets.

Despite a more uncertain outlook, the Company has made no changes to its investment plans or capital return priorities. Capex in 2025 is projected to be within the range of $4.5-$5.0 billion, including $1.4-$1.5 billion on our strategic growth projects and $0.3-$0.4 billion on projects related to decarbonization. The outlook for free cash flow remains positive in 2025 and beyond; cash flow in 2025 is expected to be supported by working capital optimization; and the completion of the Company's strategic growth projects is expected to support structurally higher EBITDA and investable cash flow in the coming periods. Given this positive outlook, and in line with its defined capital return policy, the Company has initiated a new long-term share buyback program, with the first tranche of 10 million shares commencing on April 7, 2025.

Footnotes

The financial information in this press release has been prepared consistently with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and as adopted by the European Union. The interim financial information included in this announcement has also been prepared in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim periods, however this announcement does not contain sufficient information to constitute an interim financial report as defined in International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". The numbers in this press release have not been audited. The financial information and certain other information presented in a number of tables in this press release have been rounded to the nearest whole number or the nearest decimal. Therefore, the sum of the numbers in a column may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that column. In addition, certain percentages presented in the tables in this press release reflect calculations based upon the underlying information prior to rounding and, accordingly, may not conform exactly to the percentages that would be derived if the relevant calculations were based upon the rounded numbers. Segment information presented in this press release is prior to inter-segment eliminations and certain adjustments made to operating results of the segments to reflect corporate costs, income from non-steel operations (e.g. logistics and shipping services) and the elimination of stock margins between the segments.
Impairment charges of $80 million for 4Q 2024 included $37 million related to the closure of the ArcelorMittal South Africa long business and $43 million for civil works for the Monlevade project in Brazil.
Exceptional charges of $142 million in 4Q 2024 included $79 million restructuring costs related to business optimization primarily through asset concentration in the Sustainable solutions division and $63 million related to closure of the long business of ArcelorMittal South Africa.

Of this amount, $0.6 billion is expected in 2025, $0.6 billion in 2026 and $0.6 billion in 2027 and beyond. The estimate of potential additional contribution to EBITDA is based on assumptions once ramped up to full capacity and assuming prices/spreads generally in line with the averages of 2015-2020. Other projects under development include the construction of a new high added value finishing line (cold rolling mill) and a continuous coating line at Tubarão facility. The project is undergoing internal approvals, and ArcelorMittal Brasil is currently moving forward with detailed engineering (full feasibility study).

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", "projected", "potential", "intend" 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 Measures

This 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. The definition of EBITDA includes 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, liquidity 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 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.
