voestalpine Group - Outlook 2008

  • Up to now no significant impact of ‘Sub prime crisis’ on voestalpine and its core markets
  • Dynamic market development
  • Good visibility generally until end of 2008
  • Demand situation solid on sound level
  • Strong order intake in all business units
  • Global markets generally in good shape (exemption North America)
  • Steel prices rising further significantly in the course of 2008

Driven by unexpected high price increases of raw material Increased input prices to be fully passed through to markets Shortage of raw materials in H2 2008 ?

  • Development of processing divisions partly affected by availability and pricing of steel, but

prices most likely to be passed through as well

  • Main risks for the next 12 months
  • Will US-economy start to recover in H2 2008 ?
  • Effects of ‘Sub prime crisis’ on real economy already overcome ?
  • Exchange rate developments and oil price are a permanent issue of uncertainty

Last year’s EBIT-level of € 1.5 bn (before ppa) benchmark for 2008/09
