These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and as adopted by the European Union (“EU”). The accounting policies used in the preparation of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those used in the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the IASB and in conformity with IFRS as adopted by the EU.

The preparation of Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements requires management to make certain accounting estimates and assumptions that might affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the reporting dates, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reported periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The main areas involving significant estimates or judgments are impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, impairment of investments in associates; income taxes (including recoverability of deferred tax assets); obsolescence of inventory; contingencies; allowance for trade receivables; post-employment and other long-term benefits; business combinations; useful lives of property, plant and equipment and other long-lived assets and property title ownership restriction. During the period there were no material changes in the significant accounting estimates and judgements.

Tenaris carefully assesses the potential impact of climate change and energy transition on its business and on the risks to its markets and its tangible and intangible assets and adapts its business strategy accordingly. These events did not impact materially management judgments and estimates used in the preparation of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements. For further information, see note 38 to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Material intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains (losses) on transactions between Tenaris’s subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. However, since the functional currency of some subsidiaries is their respective local currency, some financial gains (losses) arising from intercompany transactions are generated. These are included in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Income Statements under Other financial results, net.

There were no significant changes in valuation techniques during the period and there have been no changes in any risk management policies since the year ended December 31, 2023.

None of the accounting pronouncements applicable after December 31, 2023, and as of the date of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements had a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or result of its operations.

If necessary, comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to changes in presentation in the current period.

There are no material differences between the IFRS and management views in total revenues.

The differences between operating income under the IFRS and management views are mainly related to the cost of goods sold, reflecting the effect of raw materials prices variations on the valuation of the replacement cost considered for management view compared to IFRS cost calculated at historical cost on a FIFO basis, and other timing differences. For more information see note II.C “Segment information” in the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The main differences in net income under the IFRS and management views arise from the impact of functional currencies on financial result, deferred income taxes as well as the equity in (losses) earnings of non-consolidated companies.

Following the integration of coating activities into its Tubes segment, the Company reclassified year-to-date segment information amounts accordingly.

Allocation of net sales to geographical information is based on the final destination of the products sold. Allocation of depreciation and amortization is based on the geographical location of the underlying assets.

There are no revenues from external customers attributable to the Company’s country of incorporation (Luxembourg). The principal countries from which the Company derives its revenues are USA, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Mexico and Brazil.

No single customer comprised more than 10% of Tenaris’s net sales in the nine-month period ended September, 30, 2024 and 2023.

Tenaris maintains a strong, longstanding relationship with Petróleos Mexicanos (“Pemex”), one of the world’s largest crude oil and condensates producers and one of its largest customers. Over the past several months, Pemex has delayed payments beyond the agreed-upon due dates, resulting in Tenaris having a significant credit exposure to Pemex, which represented approximately 20% of the Company’s overall credit exposure as of September 30, 2024. The Company has not historically had any material write-offs due to uncollectible accounts receivable relating to this customer. Although the parties are in continuous conversations and Pemex is making partial payments on a periodic basis, at this stage the Company cannot predict whether or not its exposure to Pemex will be reduced, or the timing for any such reduction.

Revenue is mainly recognized at a point in time to direct customers, when control has been transferred and there is no unfulfilled performance obligation that could affect the acceptance of the product by the customer. In the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, revenues related to governmental institutions represented approximately 29% and 26% respectively.

^(*) Includes liability related to share buyback program. See note 24 to these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

Certain non-financial assets and liabilities were included in the above table to allow reconciliation with the Statements of Financial Position.

There were no transfers between levels during the period.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Company is the current bid price. These instruments are included in Level 1 and comprise primarily corporate and sovereign debt securities.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (such as certain debt securities, certificates of deposits with original maturity of more than three months, forward and interest rate derivative instruments) is determined by using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data when available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2. The Company values its assets and liabilities included in this level using bid prices, interest rate curves, broker quotations, current exchange rates, forward rates and implied volatilities obtained from market contributors as of the valuation date.

The fair value of all outstanding derivatives is determined using specific pricing models that include inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived from or corroborated by observable data. The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is calculated as the net present value of the estimated future cash flows in each currency, based on observable yield curves, converted into U.S. dollars at the spot rate of the valuation date.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 - all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated

If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instruments are included in Level 3. The Company values its assets and liabilities in this level using observable market inputs and management assumptions which reflect the Company’s best estimate on how market participants would price the asset or liability at measurement date. As of December 31, 2023, main balances in this level included a liability related to the shares to be settled under the share buyback program which was concluded during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024. For more information see note 24.

Borrowings are comprised primarily of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt with a short-term portion where interest has already been fixed. They are classified under other financial liabilities and measured at their amortized cost. The Company estimates that the fair value of its main borrowings is approximately 99.6% of its carrying amount including interests accrued as of September 30, 2024 as compared with 99.8% as of December 31, 2023. Fair values were calculated using standard valuation techniques for floating rate instruments and comparable market rates for discounting flows.

Ternium

Ternium S.A. (“Ternium”) is a steel producer with production facilities in Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, United States and Guatemala and is one of Tenaris’s suppliers of round steel bars and flat steel products for its pipes business.

As of September 30, 2024, the closing price of Ternium’s ADSs as quoted on the New York Stock Exchange was $36.91 per ADS, giving Tenaris’s ownership stake a market value of approximately $847.9 million. As of that date, the carrying value of Tenaris’s ownership stake in Ternium, based on Ternium’s Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements, was approximately $1,374.7 million.

The Company reviews its participation in Ternium whenever events or circumstances indicate that the asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. As of September 30, 2024, the Company concluded that the carrying amount did not exceed the recoverable value of the investment.

Usiminas

Usiminas is a Brazilian producer of high-quality flat steel products used in the energy, automotive and other industries.

As of September 30, 2024, the closing price of the Usiminas’ ordinary and preferred shares, as quoted on the B3 - Brasil Bolsa Balcão S.A, was BRL6.01 ($1.10) and BRL6.24 ($1.15), respectively, giving Tenaris’s ownership stake a market value of approximately $53.9 million. As of that date, the carrying value of Tenaris’s ownership stake in Usiminas was approximately $ 115.4 million.

The Company reviews its participation in Usiminas whenever events or circumstances indicate that the asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. As of September 30, 2024, the Company concluded that the carrying amount did not exceed the recoverable value of the investment.

Techgen

Techgen S.A. de C.V. (“Techgen”) is a Mexican company that operates a natural gas-fired combined cycle electric power plant in the Pesquería area of the State of Nuevo León, Mexico, with a power capacity of 900 MW. As of September 30, 2024, Tenaris held 22% of Techgen’s share capital, and its affiliates, Ternium and Tecpetrol Internacional S.L. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of San Faustin S.A. (“San Faustin”), the controlling shareholder of both Tenaris and Ternium), beneficially owned 48% and 30%, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, the carrying value of Tenaris’s ownership stake in Techgen was approximately $57.9 million.

Techgen entered into certain transportation capacity agreements and an agreement for the purchase of clean energy certificates. As of September 30, 2024, Tenaris’s exposure under these agreements amounted to $37.0 million and $16.6 million, respectively.

Techgen’s sponsors granted certain subordinated loans to Techgen. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate outstanding principal amount under these subordinated loans was $300.1 million, of which $66.0 million correspond to Tenaris’s contribution.

On February 13, 2019, Techgen entered into a $640 million syndicated loan agreement with several banks to refinance an existing loan, resulting in the release of certain corporate guarantees previously issued by Techgen’s shareholders to secure the replaced facility.

The existing syndicated loan agreement is non-recourse on the sponsors. Techgen’s obligations thereunder are guaranteed by a Mexican security trust (covering shares, assets, accounts and contract rights), account pledges and certain direct agreements –customary for these type of transactions–. The commercial terms and conditions governing the purchase by the Company’s Mexican subsidiary, Tubos de Acero de Mexico, S.A., of 22% of the energy generated by Techgen remain substantially unchanged.

Under the loan agreement, Techgen is committed to maintain a debt service reserve account covering debt service becoming due during two consecutive quarters; such account is funded by stand-by letters of credit issued for the account of Techgen’s sponsors in proportion to their respective participations in Techgen. Accordingly, the Company applied for stand-by letters of credit covering 22% of the debt service coverage ratio, which as of September 30, 2024, amounted to $10.9 million.

Contingencies, commitments and restrictions to the distribution of profits

(i)

Contingencies

Tenaris is from time to time subject to various claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings, including customer, employee, tax and environmental-related claims, in which third parties are seeking payment for alleged damages, reimbursement for losses, or indemnity. Management, with the assistance of legal counsel, periodically reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses potential financial exposure.

Some of these claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings involve highly complex issues, and often these issues are subject to substantial uncertainties and, therefore, the probability of loss and an estimation of damages are difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, with respect to a large portion of such claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings, the Company is unable to make a reliable estimate of the expected financial effect that will result from ultimate resolution of the proceeding. In those cases, the Company has not accrued a provision for the potential outcome of these cases.

Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 - all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated

If a potential loss from a claim, lawsuit or other proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, a provision is recorded. Accruals for loss contingencies reflect a reasonable estimate of the losses to be incurred based on information available to management as of the date of preparation of the financial statements and take into consideration litigation and settlement strategies. In a limited number of ongoing cases, the Company was able to make a reliable estimate of the expected loss or range of probable loss and, depending on the likelihood of occurrence, in some of such cases has accrued a provision for such loss but believes that publication of this information on a case-by-case basis would seriously prejudice Tenaris’s position in the ongoing legal proceedings or in any related settlement discussions. Accordingly, in these cases, the Company has disclosed information with respect to the nature of the contingency but has not disclosed its estimate of the range of potential loss.

The Company believes that the aggregate provisions recorded for potential losses in these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements are adequate based upon currently available information. However, if management’s estimates prove incorrect, current reserves could be inadequate and the Company could incur a charge to earnings which could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition, net worth and cash flows.

Below is a summary description of Tenaris’s material legal proceedings which are outstanding as of the date of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements. In addition, Tenaris is subject to other legal proceedings, none of which is believed to be material.

CSN claims relating to the January 2012 acquisition of Usiminas

In 2013, the Company was notified of a lawsuit filed in Brazil by Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional (“CSN”), and various entities affiliated with CSN against the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary Confab and three subsidiaries of Ternium, all of which compose the T/T Group under the Usiminas shareholders agreement. The entities named in the CSN lawsuit had acquired a participation in Usiminas in January 2012. The CSN lawsuit alleged that, under applicable Brazilian laws and rules, the acquirers were required to launch a tag-along tender offer to all non-controlling holders of Usiminas ordinary shares for a price per share equal to 80% of the price per share paid in such acquisition, or BRL28.8, and sought an order to compel the acquirers to launch an offer at that price plus interest. If so ordered, the offer would need to be made to 182,609,851 ordinary shares of Usiminas not belonging to Usiminas’ control group. Confab’s share in the offer would be 17.9%.

On September 23, 2013, the first instance court dismissed the CSN lawsuit, and on February 8, 2017, the court of appeals maintained the understanding of the first instance court. On August 18, 2017, CSN filed an appeal to the Superior Court of Justice (“SCJ”) seeking the review and reversal of the decision issued by the Court of Appeals. On September 10, 2019, the SCJ declared CSN’s appeal admissible. On March 7, 2023, the SCJ, by majority vote, rejected CSN’s appeal. CSN made several submissions in connection with the SCJ decision, including a motion for clarification that challenged the merits of the SCJ decision. Decisions at the SCJ are adopted by majority vote. At an October 17, 2023 session, two justices of the SCJ voted in favor of remanding the case to the first instance for it to be retried following production and assessment of the new evidence, and two justices of the SCJ voted, without requiring any further evidence, in favor of granting CSN’s motion for clarification and reversing the March 7, 2023 decision that rejected CSN’s appeal; because the fifth member of SCJ excused himself from voting, a justice from another panel at the SCJ was summoned to produce the tie-breaking vote.

On June 18, 2024, the SCJ completed its voting on CSN’s motion for clarification and reversed, by majority vote, its March 7, 2023 decision, and resolved that Confab and the three subsidiaries of Ternium should pay CSN an indemnification in connection with the acquisition by the T/T Group of a participation in Usiminas in January 2012, with CSN being allowed to retain ownership of the Usiminas ordinary shares it currently owns. Depending on how the indemnification is calculated by other courts (including as to the calculation of monetary adjustment and interest), as determined pursuant to the prevailing vote at the SCJ, and interest through September 30, 2024, the potential aggregate indemnification payable by Confab could reach up to BRL966.2 million (approximately $177.3 million at the BRL/$ rate as of such date). On August 1, 2024, Confab and the other T/T Group entities filed a motion for clarification against the SCJ decision and, subsequently, CSN filed its reply. The T/T Group’s motion is still pending, and there is no specific deadline for the SCJ to rule on these filings.

The Company continues to believe that all of CSN’s claims and allegations are groundless and without merit, as confirmed by several opinions of Brazilian legal counsel, two decisions issued by the Brazilian securities regulator in February 2012 and December 2016, the first and second instance court decisions and the March 7, 2023 SCJ decision referred to above.

The Company also believes that the June 18, 2024 SCJ decision on CSN’s motion for clarification is contrary to applicable substantive and procedural law and Confab will file all available motions and appeals against the SCJ decision.

Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 - all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in light of the recent SCJ decision, the Company cannot predict the ultimate resolution on the matter.

Veracel celulose accident litigation

On September 21, 2007, an accident occurred in the premises of Veracel Celulose S.A. (“Veracel”) in connection with a rupture in one of the tanks used in an evaporation system manufactured by Confab. The Veracel accident allegedly resulted in material damages to Veracel. Itaú Seguros S.A. (“Itaú”), Veracel’s insurer at the time of the Veracel accident and then replaced by Chubb Seguros Brasil S/A (“Chubb”), initiated a lawsuit against Confab seeking reimbursement of damages paid to Veracel in connection with the Veracel accident. Veracel initiated a second lawsuit against Confab seeking reimbursement of the amount paid as insurance deductible with respect to the Veracel accident and other amounts not covered by insurance. Itaú and Veracel claimed that the Veracel accident was caused by failures and defects attributable to the evaporation system manufactured by Confab. Confab believes that the Veracel accident was caused by the improper handling by Veracel’s personnel of the equipment supplied by Confab in violation of Confab’s instructions. The two lawsuits were consolidated and are considered by the 6^th Civil Court of São Caetano do Sul. However, each lawsuit will be adjudicated separately.

On September 28, 2018, Confab and Chubb entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which on October 9, 2018, Confab paid an amount of approximately $3.5 million to Chubb, without assuming any liability for the accident or the claim.

On October 10, 2018, Confab was notified that the court had issued rulings for both lawsuits. Both decisions were unfavorable to Confab:

With respect to Chubb’s claim, the court subsequently homologated the above-mentioned settlement and, accordingly, the claim was finalized.

With respect to Veracel’s claim, Confab was ordered to pay the insurance deductible and other concepts not covered by insurance, currently estimated to amount to BRL107.7 million (approximately $19.8 million) including interest, fees and expenses. Both parties filed motions for clarification against the court’s decision, which were partially granted. Although the contract between Confab and Veracel expressly provided that Confab would not be liable for damages arising from lost profits, the court award would appear to include BRL92.4 million (approximately $17.0 million) of damages arising therefrom. Confab has additional defense arguments in respect of a claim for lost profits. On December 18, 2018, Confab filed an appeal against the first instance court decision, and on April 30, 2019, Veracel filed its response to the appeal. In June 2022, the court resolved that it lacked jurisdiction to decide on the appeal, which was re-allocated to another court. The parties are currently waiting for the trial of the appeal to be scheduled. On August 28, 2024, the court issued a decision rejecting certain procedural objections and accepting other objections on the merits of the case raised by Confab. As a result, the trial was redirected to the first instance court for new technical evidence to be produced by a new expert. At this stage, the Company cannot predict the outcome of the claim or the amount or range of loss in case of an unfavorable outcome.

Petrobras-related proceedings and claims

Upon learning that Brazilian, Italian and Swiss authorities were investigating whether certain payments were made prior to 2014 from accounts of entities presumably associated with affiliates of the Company to accounts allegedly linked to individuals related to Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. (“Petrobras”) and whether any such payments were intended to benefit the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary Confab, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors engaged external counsel in connection with the Company’s review of these matters. In addition, the Company voluntarily notified the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in October 2016. The Company conducted, with the assistance of external counsel, an internal investigation and found no evidence corroborating any involvement by the Company or its directors, officers or employees in respect of improper payments. An internal investigation commissioned by Petrobras also found no evidence that Confab obtained any unfair commercial benefit or advantage from Petrobras in return for payments, including improperly obtained contracts. On June 2, 2022, the Company resolved the investigation by the SEC, and the DOJ informed that it had closed its parallel inquiry without taking action. Under the settlement with the SEC, the Company neither admits nor denies the SEC’s findings and on June 24, 2022, paid $53.1 million in disgorgement and prejudgment interest and $25 million for a civil penalty to conclude the matter.

Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 - all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated

In July 2019, the Company learned that the public prosecutors’ office of Milan, Italy, had completed a preliminary investigation into the same alleged payments and had included in the investigation, among other persons, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, two other board members, Gianfelice Rocca and Roberto Bonatti, and the Company’s controlling shareholder, San Faustin. The Company is not a party to the proceedings. On March 22, 2022, upon completion of the evidentiary phase of the trial, the acting prosecutor requested the first-instance court in Milan in charge of the case to impose sanctions on our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, on the other two board members, and on San Faustin. The Company’s outside counsel in Italy advised the Company that neither the case file nor the prosecutor’s request contain or identify any evidence of involvement in, or knowledge of, the alleged wrongdoing by any of the three directors. On May 26, 2022, the first-instance court dismissed the case brought by the public prosecutor against the defendants for lack of jurisdiction and stated that the criminal proceeding should not have been initiated. On October 7, 2022, the public prosecutor filed an appeal against the first-instance court’s decision. On February 22, 2024, the court of appeals referred the case to the court of cassation, which, on May 23, 2024, confirmed the decision of the first-instance court and closed the case.

In June 2020, the Brazilian public prosecutors’ office requested the indictment of several individuals, including three executives or former executives of Confab and a former agent of Confab, charging them with the alleged crimes of corruption in relation to contracts executed between 2007 and 2010, and money laundering in relation to payments between 2009 and 2013. These criminal proceedings are underway. Neither the Company nor Confab is a party to these criminal proceedings.

In addition, Petrobras and the Brazilian public prosecutors filed civil claims for damages against, among others, Confab and the Confab executives named in the criminal proceedings referred to above. Confab became aware of these civil claims in September 2022. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate amount of these claims was estimated at BRL327.7 million (or approximately $60.1 million). The plaintiffs also seek that Confab be prohibited from contracting with, or receiving benefits or exemptions from, the Brazilian state for an unspecified term. Confab believes these claims do not address either the defense arguments or the evidence available to the plaintiffs in Brazil and presented in other jurisdictions and is vigorously contesting them. At this stage, the Company cannot predict the outcome of these civil proceedings.

In late March 2024, the Company became aware of a resolution of Brazil’s General Controllers Office (“CGU”), which opened administrative responsibility proceedings against Confab and other non-Tenaris affiliates and formed an investigative commission charged with investigating purported irregularities referred to in certain 2019 administrative proceedings; the commission is required to complete its investigation within 180 days. Confab has not been served notice of either CGU’s March 2024 resolution or the 2019 administrative proceedings and, as a result, the Company cannot express a view on such administrative proceedings.

Administrative proceeding concerning Brazilian tax credits

Confab is a party to an administrative proceeding concerning the recognition and transfer of tax credits for an amount allegedly exceeding the amount that Confab would have been entitled to recognize and / or transfer. The proceeding resulted in the imposition of a fine against Confab representing approximately 75% of the allegedly undue credits, which was appealed by Confab. On January 21, 2019, Confab was notified of an administrative decision denying Confab’s appeal, thereby upholding the tax determination and the fine against Confab. On January 28, 2019, Confab challenged such administrative decision. Special appeals were filed by Confab in July 2023 and by the Brazilian General Tax Attorney in September 2023. The parties are currently awaiting a resolution. In case of an unfavorable resolution, Confab may appeal before the courts. The estimated amount of this claim is BRL61.8 million (approximately $11.3 million). At this stage, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this claim.

U.S. patent infringement litigation

Tenaris Coiled Tubes, LLC (“TCT”), a U.S. subsidiary of the Company, was sued in 2017 by its competitor Global Tubing, alleging defamatory conduct by TCT and seeking a declaration that certain Global Tubing products do not infringe patents held by TCT. TCT counterclaimed that certain Global Tubing products did infringe patents held by TCT, and Global Tubing has since sought to invalidate such patents. On December 13, 2019, Global Tubing filed an amended complaint (including the Company as defendant), alleging, among other things, that TCT and the Company had misled the patent office. On March 20, 2023, the judge granted summary judgment in favor of Global Tubing, concluding that the patents at issue are unenforceable due to inequitable conduct during the patent prosecution process. TCT appealed this judgment, and Global Tubing appealed a previous ruling of the judge. Global Tubing also filed a brief seeking to recover attorneys’ fees, without specifying the amount of those fees. Although it is not possible to predict the final outcome of this matter, the Company believes that any potential losses arising from this case will not be material.

(ii)

Commitments and guarantees

Set forth is a description of the Tenaris’s main outstanding commitments:

Certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into a contract with Praxair S.A. for the service of oxygen and nitrogen supply. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate amount to take or pay the committed volumes for an original 14-year term totaled approximately $29.8 million.

A Mexican subsidiary of the Company entered into a 25-year contract (effective as of December 1, 2016, through December 1, 2041) with Techgen for the supply of 197 MW (which represents 22% of Techgen’s capacity). Monthly payments are determined on the basis of capacity charges, operation costs, back-up power charges, and transmission charges. As of the seventh contract year (as long as Techgen’s existing or replacing bank facility has been repaid in full), the Company’s subsidiary has the right to suspend or early terminate the contract if the rate payable under the agreement is higher than the rate charged by the Mexican Comisión Federal de Electricidad (“CFE”) or its successors. The Company’s subsidiary may instruct Techgen to sell to any affiliate, to CFE, or to any other third party all or any part of unused contracted energy under the agreement and the Company’s subsidiary will benefit from the proceeds of such sale.

A U.S. subsidiary of the Company is a party to a contract with Nucor Steel Memphis Inc. under which it is committed to purchase on a monthly basis a specified minimum volume of steel bars, at prices subject to quarterly adjustments. The contract became effective in April 2021, with an original duration of 3 years. In September 2023, the parties agreed to extend its term until December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, the estimated aggregate contract amount calculated at current prices, was approximately $20.0 million. The contract gives the subsidiary of the Company the right to temporarily reduce the quantities to be purchased thereunder to 75% of the agreed-upon minimum volume in cases of material adverse changes in prevailing economic or market conditions.

In connection with the closing of the acquisition of IPSCO, a U.S. subsidiary of the Company entered into a 6-year master distribution agreement (the “MDA”) with PAO TMK (“TMK”) whereby, since January 2, 2020, Tenaris became the exclusive distributor of TMK’s OCTG and line pipe products in United States and Canada. At the end of the MDA’s 6-year term, TMK would have the option to extend the duration of its term for an additional 12-month period. Under the MDA, the Company is required to purchase specified minimum volumes of TMK-manufactured OCTG and line pipe products, based on the aggregate market demand for the relevant product category in the United States in the relevant year. In February 2022, however, the Company and TMK agreed that there would be no minimum yearly purchase requirement for the OCTG product category for the year ended December 31, 2022, and there would be no minimum yearly purchase requirement for TMK line pipe products under the MDA neither for the contract year ended December 31, 2022, nor for any subsequent contract year until expiration of the MDA’s term. In addition, no purchases of TMK products were made during the nine-month period ended on September 30, 2023 and 2024.

A Brazilian subsidiary of the Company entered into a contract with Usiminas from which it committed to purchase steel coils for a remaining amount of approximately $5.1 million to use for manufacturing welded pipes for the Raia fields project in Brazil.

Certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into a contract with the supplier JFE Steel Corporation for the purchase of tubular material, including 13 chrome alloy products. Such contract foresees a penalty for a maximum amount of $26.7 million in case of early termination.

Certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into agreements with Vestas Group for the supply of materials and services related to the construction of a wind farm in Argentina. As of September 30, 2024, the amount related to these commitments was $104.5 million.

An Argentine subsidiary of the Company entered into agreements with COARCO S.A. for execution of civil and electrical works, including auxiliary services, related with the construction of a wind farm in Argentina. As of September 30, 2024, the amount related to these commitments was $41.0 million.

A U.S. subsidiary of the Company entered into a one-year agreement with U.S. Steel Corporation under which it is committed to take or pay on a monthly basis a specified minimum volume of steel billets, at prices calculated on a monthly basis. As of September 30, 2024, the estimated aggregate contract amount, calculated at current prices, stands at approximately $42.6 million.

Restrictions on the distribution of profits and payment of dividends

In accordance with Luxembourg Law, the Company is required to transfer a minimum of 5% of its net profit for each financial year to a legal reserve until such reserve equals 10% of the issued share capital.

On April 30, 2024, the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders approved the cancelation of 17,779,302 ordinary shares held in treasury by the Company and the corresponding reduction of the issued share capital of the Company and, accordingly, the legal reserve was proportionally reduced. As of September 30, 2024, this reserve is fully allocated and additional allocations to the reserve are not required under Luxembourg law. Dividends may not be paid out of the legal reserve.

The Company may pay dividends to the extent, among other conditions, that it has distributable retained earnings calculated in accordance with Luxembourg law and regulations.

Cancellation of title deed in Saudi Steel Pipe Company

In early 2021, the Company learned through the Saudi Ministry of Justice’s online portal that the electronic title deeds to certain land plots of its Saudi Arabian subsidiary SSPC had become inactive due to cancellation by court order.

The affected land plots, with a total surface of 811,284 square meters, are located in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, and were purchased from a private entity on February 2010, pursuant to a written purchase agreement duly executed by SSPC in full compliance with the laws of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The purchase of the land occurred before Tenaris’s acquisition of a 47.79% interest in SSPC in 2019. The affected plots are not part of the production facility of SSPC, have been partially used as a warehouse, and have a carrying value on Tenaris’s financial statements of $56.2 million.

As of the date hereof, neither the cancellation nor the court order have been notified to SSPC or otherwise been made public by the authorities, and the legal basis for the court order is unknown. On May 4, 2021, SSPC filed a petition with an ad-hoc created special committee at the Saudi Ministry of Justice, seeking to have its title deeds reinstated. At this time, it is not possible to predict the outcome of this matter.

Foreign exchange control measures in Argentina

Between September 2019 and December 13, 2023, the Argentine government imposed significant restrictions on foreign exchange transactions. Although after a new administration took office in Argentina in December 2023 certain restrictions were eased and other changes to such regulations are expected, at the date of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements the application of existing foreign exchange regulations remains uncertain, and the scope and timing of upcoming changes remain unknown. The main currently applicable measures are described below:

Foreign currency proceeds derived from exports of goods must be sold into the Argentine foreign exchange market (“MULC”) and converted into Argentine pesos within 60 days (if made to related parties) or 180 days (if made to unrelated parties) from shipment date, or, if collected earlier, within five days of collection. Foreign currency proceeds from exports of services must be sold into the MULC and converted into Argentine pesos within five business days of collection. As from December 13, 2023, up to 20% of export proceeds can be sold for Argentine pesos through securities transactions resulting in a higher implicit exchange rate, as described further below. This percentage has remained stable during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, but it is unclear if it will be further modified in the short term.

Access to the MULC to pay for imports of services that were rendered or accrued as from December 13, 2023, does not require government approval, but payment is deferred for 30 calendar days as from the date of supply or accrual of the service (if the service was rendered by a non-related party) or 180 calendar days (if rendered by a related party). These transactions are subject to a 25% tax.

Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 - all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated

Access to the MULC to pay for imports of goods with customs clearance as from December 13, 2023, does not require government approval. Payment of the price of such imports is deferred for varying periods of time depending on the date of customs clearance; in the case of imports of goods with customs clearance on or after October 21, 2024, the price may be paid in full as from the 30^th calendar day as from the date of custom clearance. Advance payments or at sight cannot be made. In September 2024, the government reduced the rate of tax on imports from 17.5% to 7.5%.

Access to the MULC to make dividend payments requires prior Argentine Central Bank approval. When required, Argentine Central Bank approvals are rarely, if ever, granted.

The above-described measures substantially limit the ability of Argentine companies to obtain foreign currency and make certain payments and distributions out of Argentina through the MULC at the official exchange rate.

Access to foreign currency and transfers out of Argentina can be achieved, however, through securities transactions involving bonds or shares with multiple listings, resulting in a different implicit exchange rate, generally higher than the official exchange rate. Such transactions are subject to certain restrictions and limits, which change from time to time, and often result in a financial loss being generated at the time of making any such transaction. For example, in the past, the Argentine Securities Commission imposed several additional restrictions on such securities transactions, including a requirement to give prior notice to the Argentine government of any proposed transfer of securities outside of Argentina and a limitation on the amount of any such transfers. It is still unclear if or when the new Argentine Securities Commission’s authorities will eliminate or loosen the remaining restrictions.

The exchange rate of the Argentine peso against the U.S. dollar devaluated by more than 100% upon the change of government in December 2023. Since then, the new Administration maintains a “crawling peg” policy by devaluating the Argentine currency at a rate of approximately 2% per month. The extent and rate of the crawling peg remains unclear. Tenaris’s financial position in Argentine pesos as of September 30, 2024, amounted to a net short exposure of approximately $89.1 million. In the event of an additional devaluation, our Argentine subsidiaries, which hold U.S. dollar-denominated Argentine bonds for an aggregated value of $290.8 million, may be adversely affected, and will also suffer a loss on deferred tax charge as a result of a deterioration on the tax value of their fixed assets. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate all impacts of a new devaluation of the Argentine peso against the U.S. dollar.

As of September 30, 2024, the total equity of Argentine subsidiaries represented approximately 10% of Tenaris’s total equity and the sales made by Argentine subsidiaries during the period ended September 30, 2024, amounted approximately to 20% of Tenaris’s total sales. Assets and liabilities denominated in Argentine peso as of September 30, 2024, are valued at the prevailing official exchange rate.

This context of volatility and uncertainty remains in place as of the issue date of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements. Management continues to monitor closely the evolution of the main variables affecting its business, identifying the potential impact thereof on its financial and economic situation and determining the appropriate course of action in each case. These Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements should be read taking into account these circumstances.

Business Combinations

Acquisition of the Pipe Coating Business Unit of Mattr

Acquisition and price determination

On November 30, 2023, Tenaris completed the acquisition of Mattr’s pipe coating business unit and other specific assets for $182.6 million paid in cash. Under the purchase contract, the acquisition price was paid based on an estimated closing statement and the final price was subject to a true-up adjustment based on actual amounts of cash, indebtedness, working capital and certain other items as of the closing date. On July 31, 2024, the parties entered into a settlement agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed that the aggregate shortfall payment payable by Mattr to Tenaris amounted to $32.3 million and, accordingly, the final purchase price was $150.2 million.

The business acquired includes nine plants located in Canada, Mexico, Norway, Indonesia, the UAE and the U.S. and several mobile concrete plants. The business also includes world-class R&D facilities in Toronto and Norway and a wide IP/product portfolio.

The Company consolidated the balances and results of operations of the acquired business as from November 30, 2023.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, the acquired business contributed revenues of $284.1 million, represented a minor contribution to Tenaris’s results, and was initially assigned to the Other segment but subsequently reclassified to the Tubes segment.

Fair value of net assets acquired

The application of the acquisition method requires certain estimates and assumptions, mainly concerning the determination of the fair values of the acquired intangible assets, property, plant and equipment as well as the liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition, including the timing and amounts of cash flow projections, the revenue growth rates, the customer attrition rates and the discount rate. The fair values determined at the acquisition date are based on discounted cash flows and other valuation techniques.

The purchase price allocation was carried out with the assistance of a third-party expert. Following IFRS 3, during the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company continued reviewing the allocation and, based on new information related to events or circumstances existing at the acquisition date, made certain adjustments over the value of the identifiable assets acquired such as property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, working capital and other assets and liabilities.

The allocation of the fair values determined for the assets and liabilities arising from the acquisition is as follows:

Fair value of acquired assets and liabilities as of acquisition date (November 30, 2023):	$ million
Property, plant and equipment		115
Intangible assets		14
Working capital		(2	)
Cash and cash equivalents		20
Provisions		(7	)
Other assets and liabilities, net		11
Net assets acquired		152

The fair value of the net assets acquired shown above amounted to approximately $152.5 million. As a result of the acquisition, Tenaris recognized during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, a bargain purchase for approximately $2.2 million, recorded in Other operating income.

Acquisition-related costs for the year ended December 31, 2023, amounted to $1.1 million and were included in general and administrative expenses.

Acquisition-related costs for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, amounted to $1.3 million and were included in general and administrative expenses.

Share Buyback Program

On November 1, 2023, the Company’s board of directors approved a share buyback program of up to $1.2 billion, to be executed within a year, with the intention to cancel the ordinary shares acquired through the program.

The buyback program was carried out under the authority granted by the annual general meeting of shareholders held on June 2, 2020, which may be renewed or extended, up to a maximum of 10% of the Company’s shares.

The program was divided into four tranches and was completed on August 2, 2024.

For purposes of carrying out each tranche of the buyback program, Tenaris entered into non-discretionary buyback agreements with primary financial institutions that made trading decisions concerning the timing of the purchases of Tenaris’s ordinary shares independently of and uninfluenced by Tenaris and acted in compliance with applicable rules and regulations, including the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 and the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.

During the entire program, which ran from November 5, 2023, to (and including) August 2, 2024, the Company purchased 71,679,768 ordinary shares, representing 6.07% of the Company’s issued share capital at the beginning of the program, for a total consideration of $1.2 billion. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, the Company purchased 59,031,677 shares, for $985.1 million. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company purchased 12,648,091 shares, for a value of $213.7 million.

On April 30, 2024, the extraordinary shareholders meeting approved the cancellation of 17,779,302 ordinary shares held in treasury by the Company, which had been acquired throughout the first tranche of its share buyback program, and resolved to approve the corresponding reduction of the issued share capital of the Company and the amendment of the first paragraph of article 5 of the Company’s articles of association. As a result, effective April 30, 2024, the share capital of the Company was reduced from $1,180,536,830 (represented by 1,180,536,830 shares with a par value of $1 per share) to $1,162,757,528 (represented by 1,162,757,528 shares with a par value of $1 per share).

As of September 30, 2024, the Company held 53,900,466 shares as treasury shares. The Company intends to cancel all treasury shares purchased under the program in due course.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company held a liability in connection to the shares to be settled under the first tranche of the buyback program that amounted to $86.2 million, valued at fair value.

Further information on the buyback transactions is available on Tenaris’s corporate website under the Share Buyback Program Section.

Events after the reporting period

Interim Dividend Payment

On November 6, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the payment of an interim dividend of $0.27 per outstanding share ($0.54 per ADS), or approximately $300 million, payable on November 20, 2024, with record date on November 19, 2024 and ex-dividend date of November 18, 2024 in Europe and November 19, 2024 in the United States and Mexico.

Follow-on Share Buyback Program

Tenaris’s Board of Directors approved a follow-on share buyback program for up to $700 million under the authority granted by the annual general meeting of shareholders held on June 2, 2020.

Under the previous $1.2 billion share buyback, which ran from November 5, 2023 to August 2, 2024, the Company purchased a total number of ordinary shares representing 6.07% of its total issued share capital measured as at the launch of the program. This follow-on share buyback program will cover up to $700 million (excluding incidental transaction fees), subject to a maximum of 46,373,915 ordinary shares representing the remainder 3.93% of the Company’s issued share capital (measured also as at the launch of the original program) that may be repurchased under the above-referred authority (which authorizes repurchases up to a maximum of 10% of the share capital).

Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 - all amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated

The decision and opportunity of launching this follow-on buyback program is driven by the Company’s significant cash flow generation and strong balance sheet.

The follow-on buyback program is expected to be launched in the near future and finish by March 26, 2025. It will be executed by a primary financial institution on the Milan Stock Exchange, with the intention to cancel the ordinary shares acquired through the program.

The buybacks may be ceased, paused and continued at any time, subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

Tenaris will provide updates on the buyback program via press releases and on the Investors section of its corporate website. The buybacks will be carried out subject to market conditions and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 and the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.
