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

"The strong market conditions enjoyed for much of the past two years deteriorated in the third quarter as seasonally lower shipments, a reduction in exceptional price levels, destocking and higher energy costs combined to put profits under pressure. The business responded quickly to the changing environment, cutting higher cost capacity to manage addressable demand and reduce fixed costs, and reducing European gas consumption by 30%.

The group's decarbonization goals remain a central part of the strategy, with a key development being the ground breaking last month in Ontario, Canada, for a new DRI-EAF plant, which is hydrogen ready. This is an important milestone in our decarbonization roadmap and has been achieved thanks to support from both the regional and federal governments. With COP27 underway we hope for progress on measures that can accelerate the road to net zero, including the scaling up of renewable energy, critical for both the decarbonization of steel and enhanced energy security.

The short-term outlook for the industry remains uncertain and caution is appropriate. But, ArcelorMittal has the strength, resilience and experience to face the future with confidence. Supported by a strong balance sheet, we will continue to focus on executing our strategy, designed to ensure our long-term sector leadership, as well as deliver sustainable investor returns."

Sustainable development highlights – leading the decarbonization of the steel industry:

On November 3, 2022, ArcelorMittal announced it has invested $25 million in nuclear innovation company TerraPower through its XCarb® innovation fund⁸. The investment is part of an $830 million equity raise TerraPower has concluded, which is the largest private raise among advanced nuclear companies. TerraPower, which was founded by Bill Gates in 2008, entered the nuclear energy arena because the company's founders saw clean energy as the pathway to lift billions out of poverty. It has spent the last decade investing in and developing ground-breaking nuclear technologies.

Its flagship technology is Natrium™, which features a cost-competitive sodium fast reactor combined with a molten salt energy storage system. This combination will provide clean, flexible energy and integrate seamlessly into power grids with high penetrations of renewables. TerraPower is experiencing significant growth, and is currently building its first Natrium™ reactor, a TerraPower and GE Hitachi technology, as part of the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program (ARDP). The facility, being constructed near the site of a retiring coal plant in Kemmerer, Wyoming, will feature a 345 MWe sodium fast reactor alongside an energy storage system that can boost output to 500 MWe during peak demand. Large scale, first-of-a-kind, energy generation projects like the Natrium™ project take years to come to fruition, and TerraPower is targeting an in-service date for the project within this decade.

On October 13, 2022, ArcelorMittal together with the governments of Canada and Ontario, broke ground on its CAD$1.8 billion investment decarbonization project at the ArcelorMittal Dofasco plant in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The governments of Canada and Ontario having committed CAD$400 million and CAD$500 million respectively to the overall project cost. The project will fundamentally change the way steel is made at ArcelorMittal Dofasco, transitioning the site to direct reduced iron-electric arc furnace steelmaking, which carries a considerably lower carbon footprint and removes coal from the ironmaking process. The new 2.5Mt capacity DRI furnace will initially operate on natural gas but will be constructed ‘hydrogen ready' so it can transition to green hydrogen when a sufficient and cost-effective supply becomes available.¹⁹
On October 4, 2022, ArcelorMittal announced it has invested a further $17.5 million in Form Energy Inc. via its XCarb® innovation fund. This is the second investment ArcelorMittal has made in the company, following its initial investment of $25 million announced in July 2021. Form Energy is developing, manufacturing, and commercializing a new class of cost-effective, multi-day energy storage systems that will enable a reliable and fully renewable electric grid year-round.
On September 22, 2022, ArcelorMittal announced that ArcelorMittal Poland had received ResponsibleSteel™ certification, following a successful audit carried out by DNV Poland which confirmed that the business fulfils the criteria required to earn certification against the ResponsibleSteel Standard. ArcelorMittal Poland is the first cluster of sites to be certified in Eastern Europe by ResponsibleSteel, the industry's first global multi-stakeholder standard and certification initiative.

ACIS segment crude steel production in 3Q 2022 was +46.0% higher at 1.8Mt as compared to 1.3Mt in 2Q 2022 primarily due to the recovery in South Africa following the impact from a 2-week labour action and logistic issues in the prior quarter. Crude steel production in 3Q 2022 was -38.9% below 3.0Mt in 3Q 2021 primarily due to lower steel production in Ukraine due to the ongoing war.

One of the three blast furnaces in Ukraine, blast furnace No.6 which is approximately 20% of Kryvyi Rih capacity, was restarted on April 11, 2022. During 3Q 2022, iron ore production was temporarily suspended due to weaker demand and logistic constraints (versus ~55% capacity rate in 2Q 2022) and has restarted in early October 2022 at ~25% level.

Steel shipments in 3Q 2022 increased by +37.6% to 1.7Mt as compared to 1.2Mt in 2Q 2022 primarily due to higher exports from Kazakhstan. Shipments were -29.2% lower as compared to 2.4Mt in 3Q 2021, primarily in Ukraine due the ongoing war.

Sales in 3Q 2022 increased by +5.7% to $1.6 billion as compared to $1.5 billion in 2Q 2022, primarily due to higher steel shipments, offset in part by -16.5% lower average steel selling prices.

Operating loss in 3Q 2022 of $55 million compared to an operating income of $43 million in 2Q 2022 and $808 million in 3Q 2021.

EBITDA of $38 million in 3Q 2022 was lower as compared to $149 million in 2Q 2022, primarily due to lower average steel selling prices (-16.5%) offset in part by higher steel shipments. 2Q 2022 had also been impacted by higher costs including labour action and logistic issues in ArcelorMittal South Africa ($0.1 billion). EBITDA in 3Q 2022 was lower as compared to $920 million in 3Q 2021 due to lower steel shipments (-29.2%) and lower average steel selling prices (-10.5%).

Iron ore production decreased in 3Q 2022 by -5.3% to 6.9Mt as compared to 7.3Mt in 2Q 2022, but marginally higher than 6.8Mt in 3Q 2021. Lower production in 3Q 2022 as compared to 2Q 2022 was primarily due to lower production in AMMC⁶ mainly due to impacts of exceptionally heavy rains in September 2022.

Iron ore shipments decreased in 3Q 2022 by -8.4% to 6.9Mt as compared to 7.5Mt in 2Q 2022, primarily driven by the impact of lower production on shipments at AMMC. 3Q 2022 iron ore shipments were stable as compared to 3Q 2021.

Operating income in 3Q 2022 was $254 million as compared to $463 million in 2Q 2022 and $741 million in 3Q 2021.

EBITDA in 3Q 2022 decreased to $311 million as compared to $527 million in 2Q 2022, largely reflecting the effect of lower iron ore reference prices (-24.8%), lower quality premia and lower shipments (-8.4%), offset in part by lower freight costs. EBITDA in 3Q 2022 was lower as compared to $797 million in 3Q 2021, primarily due to lower iron ore reference prices (-36.5%) and lower quality premia.

Joint ventures

ArcelorMittal has investments in various joint ventures and associate entities globally. The Company considers the 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.

Calvert⁵

(USDm) unless otherwise shown	3Q 22	2Q 22	3Q 21	9M 22	9M 21
Production (100% basis) (kt)*	1,055	1,127	1,239	3,306	3,734
Steel shipments (100% basis) (kt)**	1,030	1,123	1,203	3,324	3,495
EBITDA (100% basis)***	2	261	397	590	821

* Production: all production of the hot strip mill including processing of slabs on a hire work basis for ArcelorMittal group entities and third parties, including stainless steel slabs.

** Shipments: including shipments of finished products processed on a hire work basis for ArcelorMittal group entities and third parties, including stainless steel products.

*** EBITDA of Calvert presented here on a 100% basis as a stand-alone business and in accordance with the Company's policy, applying the weighted average method of accounting for inventory.

Calvert's hot strip mill ("HSM") production during 3Q 2022 decreased by -6.4% to 1.1Mt, as compared to 2Q 2022 and by -14.9% as compared to 1.2Mt in 3Q 2021.

Steel shipments in 3Q 2022 were -8.3% below 2Q 2022 due to weaker demand.

EBITDA*** during 3Q 2022 of $2 million was significantly lower than $261 million in 2Q 2022 primarily due to negative price-cost effect resulting from the decline in sales prices for non-contract volumes while cost continues to be impacted by the lagged cost of slabs and inventory that does not reflect the prevailing market prices. The impact of weighted average cost of inventories versus replacement cost in 3Q 2022 was approximately $0.2 billion.

AMNS India⁴

(USDm) unless otherwise shown	3Q 22	2Q 22	3Q 21	9M 22	9M 21
Crude steel production (100% basis) (kt)	1,663	1,668	1,891	5,061	5,546
Steel shipments (100% basis) (kt)	1,634	1,511	1,765	4,877	5,191
EBITDA (100% basis)	204	365	551	1,039	1,561

Crude steel production in 3Q 2022 was stable at 1.7Mt as compared to 2Q 2022 but -12.1% lower as compared to 1.9Mt in 3Q 2021 on account of maintenance.

Steel shipments in 3Q 2022 increased by +8.2% to 1.6Mt as compared to 1.5Mt in 2Q 2022 but lower as compared to 1.8Mt in 3Q 2021.

EBITDA during 3Q 2022 of $204 million was lower compared to $365 million in 2Q 2022, due to lower selling prices, higher coal costs and lower pellet sales contribution (following the introduction of the export duty during the prior quarter) offset in part by higher steel shipments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities for 3Q 2022 was $1,981 million as compared to $2,554 million in 2Q 2022 and $2,442 million in 3Q 2021. Net cash provided by operating activities in 3Q 2022 includes a working capital investment of $580 million as compared to investments of $1,008 million in 2Q 2022 and $2,896 million in 3Q 2021. 3Q 2022 working capital requirements were driven primarily by the lagged effects of higher raw material costs and higher energy costs on steel inventories. Based on current market conditions, the Company expects a working capital release in 4Q 2022.

Capex in 3Q 2022 amounted to $784 million compared with $655 million in 2Q 2022 and $675 million in 3Q 2021. Full year 2022 capex guidance has been reduced to $3.5 billion (from $4.2 billion previous guidance) implying 4Q 2022 capex of ~$1.5 billion. The reduction in capex guidance reflects some moderate delays to certain strategic and decarbonization spending plans due to project mobilization/contractors but these are now accelerating. There has also been a $0.2 billion reduction from foreign exchange effects relative to initial 2022 budget. Sustaining capex is expected to increase in 4Q 2022 (although the full year 2022 amount is lower than previous guidance) as the Company capitalizes on a period of lower production and prepares for anticipated future stronger apparent demand. Full year 2023 capex plans and guidance will be provided at full year 2022 results in February 2023, but 2H 2022 run rate levels are a good base-line for full year 2023. Given the previously announced strategic pipeline ($3.65 billion for 3 years) the Company expects strategic projects capex in 2023 to be higher than full year 2022 ($0.7 billion). Decarbonization capex spending is expected to accelerate in full year 2023 versus the $0.2 billion in full year 2022.¹³

Net cash used in other investing activities in 3Q 2022 was $19 million mainly related to investment in Form Energy Inc. (through the XCarb^TM innovation fund), as compared to $886 million in 2Q 2022 (primarily related to the acquisition of the HBI plant, Texas). Net cash provided by other investing activities in 3Q 2021 of $1,184 million included a cash inflow primarily related to the redemption of preferred shares of Cleveland Cliffs.

Net cash used in financing activities in 3Q 2022 was $219 million as compared to $1,651 million in 2Q 2022 and $2,740 million in 3Q 2021. In 3Q 2022, ArcelorMittal raised a €600 million 4 year note which was offset by the repurchase of 31 million shares for a total value of $712 million (of which $649 million was paid by the end of September 2022 and $63 million settled in early October 2022) and paid minority dividends of $124 million mainly paid to minority shareholders of AMMC.

Gross debt increased to $9.0 billion as of September 30, 2022, as compared to $8.8 billion as of June 30, 2022, and $8.4 billion as of December 31, 2021. Net debt decreased by $0.3 billion to $3.9 billion as of September 30, 2022, as compared to $4.2 billion as of June 30, 2022, and decreased by $0.1 billion from $4.0 billion as of December 31, 2021.

As of September 30, 2022, and June 30, 2022, the Company had liquidity of $10.6 billion and $10.1 billion, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $5.1 billion (June 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents of $4.6 billion) and $5.5 billion of available credit lines⁷. As of September 30, 2022, the average debt maturity was 5.5 years.

Capital return

Following the completion of its previously announced share buyback plans (totaling 65.1 million shares in 1H 2022), the Company announced a new share buyback program on July 29, 2022 to purchase a further 60 million shares by the end of May 2023. This is the maximum shares purchasable under current shareholder authorization. Pursuant to this program, the Company repurchased ~31 million shares at a cost of $0.7 billion during the third quarter of 2022.

Outlook

The Company has adapted its capacity for 4Q 2022 to address the weak apparent demand environment and higher energy costs, particularly in Europe. Apparent demand conditions are expected to improve once the current destocking phase reaches maturity. The Company is adapting its cost base during this period of low capacity utilization, optimizing energy consumption and reducing fixed costs of unproductive capacity. At current spot levels, variable costs per tonne (raw materials and energy) are expected to decline in the 4Q 2022, but less than revenue per tonne. Working capital is believed to have peaked, and the unwind expected from 4Q 2022 and into 2023 is expected to support free cash flow.

The Company expects to mitigate some of the fixed costs of idled capacity during 4Q 2022 i.e. utilize economic unemployment support from governments; reduced working hours etc.

Based on the slowing real demand outlook and supply chain destocking, ArcelorMittal expects the following demand by key region:

In the US, real consumption in 2022 is expected to grow, but a greater impact than previously expected from destocking (particularly in the second half of the year) is forecast to lead to a slight contraction of apparent consumption by up to -1%;
In Europe, inflation headwinds are leading to slower (but still positive) real consumption growth in 2022, however the impact of destocking is significant (particularly in the second half of the year) and expected to lead to a contraction of apparent consumption by up to -7.0%;
In Brazil, demand is in line with previous expectations, with a slight contraction in real consumption and a significant reduction in inventory forecast (following destocking) to lead to a contraction in apparent consumption by -10% or more;
In India, apparent consumption in 2022 is forecast to grow between +7.5% to +8.5%, which is at the upper end of our previous expectations;
In the CIS region (which includes Commonwealth of Independent States and Ukraine), we forecast ASC to contract by up to -7.0%; and
In China, the ongoing economic weakness caused by COVID-19 restrictions and the weak construction sector are forecast to lead to a decline in apparent demand of approximately -3.5%.

AMNS India is debottlenecking its operations (steel shop and rolling parts) to achieve capacity of 8.6Mt per annum by the end of 2024. AMNS India medium-term plans are to expand and grow initially to ~15Mt by early 2026 in Hazira (phase 1A) including automotive downstream and enhancements to iron ore operations, with estimated capex of ~$7.4 billion (for $0.8 billion for debottlenecking, $1.0 billion for downstream projects and $5.6 billion for upstream projects. Phase 1A plans include a CRM2 complex and galvanizing and annealing line, 2 blast furnaces, steel shop, HSM, ancillary equipment (including coke, sinter, networks, power, gas, oxygen plant etc.); and raw material handling. Start of BF2 expected in 2025 and BF3 in 2026. BF1 net capacity increase from 2Mtpa to 3Mtpa. There are further options to potentially grow to 20Mt per annum (Phase 1B). AMNS India has agreed to acquire port, power and other logistics and infrastructure assets in India from the Essar Group for a net value of ~$2.4bn. AMNS India has completed part of the power closing transaction on October 19, 2022 ($0.4 billion) whilst the remaining transaction closing is subject to the completion of certain corporate and regulatory approvals. In March 2021, AMNS India signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU") with the Government of Odisha in view of building an integrated steel plant with a 12Mtpa capacity in Kendrapara district of state Odisha. A pre-feasibility study report was submitted to the state government in 3Q 2021, and AMNS India is currently engaging with the government for further studies and clearances. Further options to build a 6Mtpa integrated steel plant are being assessed. The Thakurani mine is operating at full 5.5Mtpa capacity since 1Q 2021, while the second Odisha pellet plant was commissioned and started in September 2021, adding 6Mtpa for a total 20Mtpa of pellet capacity. In addition, in September 2021, AMNS India commenced operations at Ghoraburhani - Sagasahi iron ore mine in Odisha. The mine is set to gradually ramp up production to a rated capacity of 7.2Mtpa and contribute significantly to meeting AMNS India's long-term raw material requirements.
AMNS Calvert ("Calvert") has plans to construct a new 1.5Mt EAF and caster is expected to be completed in 2023. The joint venture is to invest $775 million. Option to add a further 1.5Mt EAF at lower capex intensity is being studied.

On December 19, 2018, ArcelorMittal signed a $5.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility, with a five-year maturity plus two one-year extension options. During the fourth quarter of 2019, ArcelorMittal executed the option to extend the facility to December 19, 2024. The extension was completed for $5.4 billion of the available amount, with the remaining $0.1 billion remaining with a maturity of December 19, 2023. In December 2020, ArcelorMittal executed the second option to extend the facility, and the new maturity is now extended to December 19, 2025. On April 30, 2021, ArcelorMittal amended its $5.5 billion RCF to align with its sustainability and climate action strategy. As of September 30, 2022, the $5.5 billion revolving credit facility was fully available.
XCarb™ is designed to bring together all of ArcelorMittal's reduced, low and zero-carbon products and steelmaking activities, as well as wider initiatives and green innovation projects, into a single effort focused on achieving demonstrable progress towards carbon neutral steel. Alongside the new XCarb™ brand, we have launched three XCarb™ initiatives: the XCarb™ innovation fund, XCarb™ green steel certificates and XCarb™ recycled and renewably produced for products made via the Electric Arc Furnace route using scrap. The Company is offering green steel using a system of certificates (XCarb® green certificates). These will be issued by an independent auditor to certify tonnes of CO2 savings achieved through the Company's investment in decarbonization technologies in Europe. Net-zero equivalence is determined by assigning CO2 savings certificates equivalent to CO2 per tonne of steel produced in 2018 as the reference. The certificates will relate to the tonnes of CO2 saved in total, as a direct result of the decarbonization projects being implemented across a number of its European sites.
In addition to the AMNS India and Calvert joint ventures, the Company has important investments in China that provide valuable dividend streams and growth optionality. VAMA, our 50:50 joint venture with Hunan Valin, is a state-of-the-art facility focused on rolling steel for high-demanding applications in particular automotive. The business is performing well and plans to expand the current capacity by 40% to 2Mtpa over the next 2 years, financed from its own resources. The investment will allow VAMA to broaden its product portfolio and further enhance its competitiveness. This will in turn enable VAMA to meet the growing demand of high value add solutions from the Chinese automotive / new energy vehicle (NEV) market and propel it to be among the top automotive steel players in China by 2025. ArcelorMittal also owns a 37% interest in China Oriental, one of the largest H-Beam producers in China which has recently upgraded its asset portfolio and benefits from a strong balance sheet position.
Other assets include the main listed investment of Erdemir (12%) at market value of $660 million, $688 million and $885 million as of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Segment "Other & eliminations", EBITDA result was an income of $87 million in 3Q 2022, as compared to a loss of $84 million in 2Q 2022 principally due to the decrease of the stock margin eliminations driven by the decrease during the quarter of the iron ore market price on intra-group stock sales between steel and mining businesses.
Equity book value per share is calculated as the Equity attributable to the equity holders of the parent divided by diluted number of shares at the end of the period. 3Q 2022 total equity of $51.6 billion divided by 873 million diluted shares outstanding equals $59/sh. 2Q 2022 total equity of $54.0 billion divided by 904 million diluted shares outstanding equals $60/sh.
Previously announced (to be updated at the full year 2022 results in February 2023) strategic capex envelope of $3.65 billion represents total to be spent on strategic projects in the period from 2021 to 2024. Specifically, $0.5 billion of the $3.65 billion has been spent through September 30, 2022. The full year 2022 capex guidance of $3.5 billion has been reduced by $0.7 billion from the previous guidance of $4.2 billion to reflect some moderate delays to certain strategic ($0.4 billion) and decarbonization ($0.1 billion) spending plans due to project mobilization/contractors which are now accelerating.
Blast furnace No.6 (approximately 20% of total Kryvyi Rih capacity), was restarted on April 11, 2022 (to resume low levels of pig iron production). Iron ore production was temporarily suspended in 3Q 2022 (from ~55% capacity run rate in 2Q 2022). Iron ore production in Ukraine has restarted in early October 2022 at ~25% level.
ROE refers to "Return on Equity" which is calculated as trailing twelve-month net income attributable to equity holders of the parent divided by the average equity attributable to the equity holders of the parent over the period. 3Q 2022 ROE of 26% ($13.1 billion / $51.1 billion). 2Q 2022 ROE of 34% ($16.7 billion / $49.6 billion).
On March 30, 2022 Votorantim exercised the put option right it has under its shareholders' agreement with the Company to sell its entire equity interest in ArcelorMittal Brasil to the Company, following the acquisition of Votorantim S.A.'s long steel business in Brazil in 2018, which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ArcelorMittal Brasil. The exercise price is calculated pursuant to an agreed formula in the shareholders' agreement which applies a 6x multiple of ArcelorMittal Brasil Longs Business EBITDA in the four immediately preceding calendar quarters from the date of the put option exercise (subject to certain adjustments, such as the exclusion of any unusual, infrequent or abnormal events) less an assumed net debt of BRL 6.2 billion times 15%. ArcelorMittal Brasil calculated the put option exercise price in the amount of $0.2 billion. Votorantim S.A. has indicated that it does not agree with ArcelorMittal Brasil's calculation of the exercise price and filed a request for arbitration on September 28, 2022.
Following a favorable and unappealable decision issued in May 2022 with respect to taxpayers' right to register the Pis/Cofins credits over scrap purchases, ArcelorMittal Brasil recorded a gain in the amount of $0.2 billion for the previous periods.
The Company has introduced a 50% increase in the short term incentive plan (STIP) link to safety performance (with fatalities acting as a circuit breaker); increased the safety target in STIP to 15% and long term incentive plan (LTIP) to 10%; and included ESG objectives in LTIP.
On October 13, 2022, ArcelorMittal together with the governments of Canada and Ontario, broke ground on its CAD$1.8 billion investment decarbonization project at the ArcelorMittal Dofasco plant in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The governments of Canada and Ontario having committed CAD$400 million and CAD$500 million respectively to the overall project cost. The project will fundamentally change the way steel is made at ArcelorMittal Dofasco, transitioning the site to direct reduced iron-electric arc furnace steelmaking, which carries a considerably lower carbon footprint and removes coal from the ironmaking process. The new 2.5Mt capacity DRI furnace will initially operate on natural gas but will be constructed ‘hydrogen ready' so it can transition to green hydrogen when a sufficient and cost-effective supply becomes available. The first onsite construction work will begin in January 2023. Construction on the new assets is currently expected to be completed in 2026, at which point a 12-18 month transition phase will begin with both steelmaking streams (BF-BOF and DRI-EAF) active. The transition is expected to be completed by 2028. In addition to the new DRI facility, the project also involves the construction of an EAF capable of producing 2.4 million tonnes of high-quality steel through ArcelorMittal Dofasco's existing casting, rolling and finishing facilities. Modification of ArcelorMittal Dofasco's existing EAF facility and continuous casters will also be undertaken to align productivity, quality and energy capabilities between all assets in the new footprint.
September 30, 2020 was the inception date of the recent share buyback programs.
In early November 2022, ArcelorMittal announced that it is preparing to reduce its activity at the Fos-sur-Mer site due to the slowdown in steel demand and the impact of energy prices. The Company expects a temporary shutdown of one of the site's two blast furnaces as of December 2022.
