Guidance

             Salzgitter Group – Guidance

          In view of the gloomier sentiment and numerous economic and political uncertainties, the Salzgitter Group affirms its guidance from February 27,
          2019, and anticipates the following in the financial year 2019:

             a slight increase in sales to above the € 9.5 billion mark,

             a pre-tax profit of between € 125 million and € 175 million and

             a return on capital employed (ROCE) that is tangibly below the previous year’s figure.

          Legal Note and other remarks

          We make explicit reference to the fact that imponderables, including changes in the cost of raw materials, precious metal prices and exchange rates, along with global trade policy measures and their possible impact may still exert a considerable influence over
          the course of the financial year.
