4 Overview: FY2018 1Q Results & 1H Forecast Business Environment Domestic steel demand : Firm, especially in the autos & industrial equipment sectors. Overseas’ steel demand : Increased steadily as a whole due to world economy’s recovery. (USA : Solid, China : Stable, Europe & emerging countries : Moderate recovery) Topics Non-consolidated crude steel production : 1Q 10.29MMT : Molten steel spill trouble at Nagoya Works, congested periodic facility maintenances 2Q—4Q forecast 11.00MMT/Q : Strengthen manufacturing capabilities both in facilities and human resources Impact from heavy rainfall in July : Resulted in suspend of operation at NSSMC’s Wakayama & Yawata Works and Nisshin Steel’s Kure Works. Nisshin estimates losses of over¥10 bil. for the recovery of in-plant power generation etc. (included in NSSMC’s consolidated earning forecast) Special steel business : June 1st – OVAKO has become NSSMC’s wholly owned subsidiary Aug 2nd – Execution of agreements, (a) making Sanyo Special Steel a subsidiary of NSSMC, (b) transferring all the shares of OVAKO to Sanyo from NSSMC Making Nisshin Steel a wholly owned subsidiary & integrating NSSMC Group’s stainless steel business (released on May 16th) Make Nisshin Steel a wholly owned subsidiary (planned in Jan, 2019) Integrate stainless steel sheet business of NSSMC, Nisshin & NSSC*** (planned in Apr, 2019) (released on Aug 2nd) Integrate & reorganize welded stainless steel pipe & tube business (planned in Apr, 2019) Essar Steel : Ongoing screening eligibility regarding bidding procedure Interim dividend (E) Financial Highlights 1Q 1H [E] 2H [E] FY2018 [E]¥40.00/share [JGAAP] [JGAAP] [IFRS] [IFRS] [IFRS] (Ą in billions) Consolidated payout ratio (E) Ordinary / Business Profit* 87.7 150.0 160.0 190.0 350.0 Net Profit** 96.3 130.0 110.0 130.0 240.0 (IFRS basis) 32% ROS 6.1% 5.0% 5.3% 5.8% 5.6% (JGAAP basis) 27% * Business profit = Profit before income taxes – net financial cost – additional line items ** Profit attributable to owners of parent (Additional line items are large amount of profits or losses from non-business activities) *** Nippon Steel & Sumikin Stainless Steel Corporation © 2018 NIPPON STEEL & SUMITOMO METAL CORPORATION All Rights Reserved.

Need to watch on its impact on global market prices. Market Prices: Prices remain high with the estimate of tighter SD situation by enforcement of environmental regulation (eg. newly announced “Blue sky initiative” ), even though seasonal drop in demand in summer(high temp.) is likely a concern.
