Steel market development in Q2 2008

Strong price increases despite a softer economic growth due to a favorable supply and demand relation especially in the US but also in Europe

Structural change due to the fact that steel prices are now driven primarily by raw material costsHigher discipline on the producer side due to consolidationHigh capacity utilizationLow stock levels and low import volumes

Further price increases already announced for the upcoming months

Strong steel market development expected to continue in Q3

Investment highlights

Complementary sales coverage combined with an additional productrange offers synergy potential

Namasco’s and Primary’s market coverage hugely expandedEnlarged purchasing power helps to counterweight the strong supplier consolidation (top 3 account for more than 80% of market)Additional (typical) synergies in admin, finance, IT, etc.

The acquisition of Temtco supports significantly the leading position of Primary and Namasco in the plate distribution segment

Securing continuing specialty plate supply through Temtco’s supplier relationsLeveraging Temtco’s customer base for sale of Namasco/Primary’s commodity plate and vice versaBroad geographic coverage with five locations

Leading position in

plate segment

Outlook 2008Based on good Q1 results, Q2 and H1 EBITDA are expected to be higher than last year supported by an on-going favorable market environment for the steel distribution

Positive development expected to continue. Thus, we expect the 2008 results to exceed the 2007 results supported by

€30 million additional EBITDA from STAR program

Positive contribution of additional €25-30 million EBITDA from acquisitions made in 2007

Positive contribution of €15-20 million EBITDA from acquisitions made in 2008

High likelihood of further stock gains in the course of 2008

Raised outlook –

2008 results above 2007

Steel cycle and EBITDA/cash flow relationship

Comments

Klöckner & Co buys and sells products at spot prices generallySales increase as a function of the steel price inflation environmentCost of material are based on an average cost method for inventory and therefore lag the steel price increaseThis time lag creates accounting windfall profits (windfall losses in a decreasing steel price environment) inflating (deflating) EBITDAAssuming stable inventory volume cash flow is impacted by higher NWC needsThe windfall profits (losses) are mirrored by inventory book value increases (decreases)
