OPERATIONAL CONTEXT

Dissemination of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19)

Since 1st quarter 2020, Brazil and the world have been undergoing a serious health crisis with the pandemic triggered by the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which has impacted economic activity and society in general. The Company, together with the São Francisco Xavier Foundation (FSFX), its social arm in the areas of health and education, has been implementing actions that primarily aim to protect its employees and business partners, as well as the communities where the Company operates, some actions of which are being implemented in partnership with public authorities.

During the nine-month period ended on 09/30/20, Management has adopted certain measures for Usiminas Companies, with the objective of minimizing the economic effects of the crisis. Among these measures, we highlight the concession of collective vacations, the adoption of teleworking (home-office) for employees in administrative departments, temporary suspension of employment contracts and reduction of working hours (the latter two measures in accordance with Provisional Measure No. 936/2020).

In 2nd quarter 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved the temporary shutdown of Blast Furnaces 1 and 2 at the Ipatinga plant, starting on April 22 and 4, respectively, with the consequent interruption of Steel Shop 1 operations of this same plant, it also approved the temporary shutdown of the Cubatão plant's activities. These measures were aimed at adapting production to market demand, which had declined due to the retraction of national economic activity caused by the spread of COVID-19.

However, due to the expected recovery in demand levels in the consumer markets for flat steel, on 08/26/20 the Company restarted Blast Furnace 1 and resumed production at Steel Shop 1, both at the Ipatinga plant, as well as resuming rolling activities at the Cubatão plant.

The Company will continue to dedicate efforts to face this serious crisis.

Economic Outlook

In Brazil, the second half of the year started with indicators recovering in several sectors. In August, according to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), industrial activity grew for the 4th consecutive month, reversing part of the decline registered in March and April. Between January and August, the 8.6% contraction compared to the same period in 2019 was driven by the Durable Consumer Goods and Capital Goods segments, where production shrank 30% and 20%, respectively, compared to previous year. Among the main activities, vehicle production exerted the greatest negative influence on the formation of the industry average.

The Association of Auto Manufacturers (ANFAVEA) announced that 1.3 million units were produced by September 2020 and 601.4 thousand units in the third quarter, variations of -41% and -20%, respectively, compared to the same period in the previous year. The entity's expectation is that vehicle production this year will be 35% lower than in 2019. With the positive reaction of consumers and the supply chain adapting to the new health protocols, the scenario is promising for the production of vehicles, but the recovery will take place gradually.

The Industrial Business Confidence Index (ICEI) of the National Confederation of Industry (CNI) reached the historic low in April, at the height of the crisis. Since then the index has shown consecutive increases to the level of 61.8 points reached in October. The latest surveys showed an improvement in the assessment of current conditions and entrepreneurs expectations. The Steel Industry Confidence Indicator (ICIA) published by the Brazilian Steel Institute in September also captured a better perception of the current business environment and the next six months.

3Q20 Results

2

Although the dynamism of economic activity is still far from the pre-crisis level, the good recent results are encouraging for the industrial segment. However, the risk of a second wave of infection persists, which could lead to new measures to control the spread of COVID-19. Another focal point, no less importantly, is linked to the country's fiscal framework, which may limit government support measures to more vulnerable families and companies and contain investments, making it more difficult to resume activity more consistently in the short term.

Operating Income (Expenses)

Selling expenses in the 3Q20 were R$96 million, 9.2% lower than in the previous quarter (2Q20: R$106 million). This variation results mainly from the recording of a provision for doubtful accounts of R$19 million in the 2Q20. This event did not recur in the 3Q20.

In the 3Q20, General and administrative expenses totaled R$98 million, stable compared to the previous quarter (2Q20: R$97 million).

Equity in the Results

Equity in the results of associates and jointly-controlled companies totaled R$40 million in the 3Q20, compared to R$45 million in the previous quarter, mainly due to the lower performance presented by Codeme, partially offset by the better result at Unigal.

Net Profit (Loss)

In 3Q20, the Company recorded net income of R$198 million (2Q20: loss of R$395 million).

Working capital

In the 3Q20, working capital totaled R$3.1 billion, 25.9% less compared to the 2Q20 (R$4.1 billion). The main changes in working capital are related to the economic recovery. They are presented below:

  • Increase in the balance of Suppliers by R$555 million, linked to the greater acquisition of slabs and raw materials to supply the resumption of production levels, increase in Accounts receivable of R$572 million and a reduction in Inventories by R$366 million, associated with the resumption of demand for steel products;
  • Reduction in Other assets due to the receipt of R$306 million related to the Compulsory Loan from Eletrobras (seenoteEletrobras Compulsory Loan).

Investments (CAPEX)

CAPEX in the 3Q20 totaled R$179 million, 7.3% lower compared to the 2Q20 (R$193 million). The investments were mainly applied in sustaining CAPEX, safety and environment, with 70.6% at the Steel Unit, 26.6% at the Mining Unit, 2.1% at the Steel Processing Unit and 0.7% at the Capital Goods Unit.

Financial Indebtedness

On 09/30/20, the Gross consolidated debt was R$6.3 billion, stable compared to the position on 06/30/20 (R$6.2 billion). In this quarter, devaluation of the Real against the Dollar by 3.0% and the provision for charges was partially offset by the amortization of debt interest in the amount of R$173 million.

Net consolidated debt on 9/30/20 was R$2.5 billion, 32.0% lower than on 06/30/20 (R$3.7 billion). Such variation results mainly from the increase in the Cash and Cash Equivalents position by 49.0% in the period.

As for the debt composition by maturity, on 9/30/20 it was 1% short term and 99% long term, compared to 3% and 97%, respectively, on 6/30/20.

The Net debt/EBITDA ratio ended the 3Q20 at 1.2x (2Q20: 2.2x). The following table shows consolidated debt data:

MINING

In the 3Q20, the average reference price for iron ore of 62% Fe was US$118.21/t, 26.8% higher compared to the previous quarter (2Q20: US$93.30/t).

The adoption of stimulus packages in China, especially for new investments in infrastructure, generated positive impacts on the Chinese economy in the third quarter. Chinese steelmakers set a new monthly record for crude steel production in August, reaching 94.8 Mt, a volume 8.4% higher than the same period last year. In the year through August, crude steel production in China increased by 3.7% compared to 2019, totaling 688.9 Mt, reaching an annual pace of over 1 billion tons (source: National Bureau of Statistics of China and WSA).

In this scenario of strong recovery in Chinese demand, the drop in Australian iron ore exports - due to scheduled maintenance at the ports after the end of its fiscal year - led to a limited supply of ore in the market and, consequently, higher prices throughout the quarter.

The spread between the price of 65% Fe ore and 62% Fe was traded at $10.68/t in the 3Q20, a 28.9% drop from the $15.02/t average in the 2Q20. With the reduction in the supply of 62% Fe ore, there was a strong appreciation of this index, which also caused the spread to fall significantly compared to the previous quarter.

The value of ocean freight, on the other hand, accumulated an increase of 49.8% over the 3Q20 compared to the 2Q20. The average rate for Capesize vessels for the route between Tubarão and Qingdao was negotiated at US$17.86/t against US$11.92/t in the 2Q20, driven by the strong resumption of Brazilian export volumes and the impact of congestion in ports and availability of ships.

Operating and Sales Performance - Mining

In the 3Q20, production volume was 2.3 million tons, an increase of 15.1% compared to the 2Q20 (2.0 million tons), mainly due to the higher operational performance and the resumption of production levels, after a scheduled stop, occurred in the previous quarter, at one of the beneficiation plants.

Sales volume was 2.3 million tons in the 3Q20, 20.6% higher than in the 2Q20 (1.9 million tons). This increase reflects the higher demand for iron ore in foreign and domestic markets and the higher sales volumes.

Comments on the Business Unit Results - Mining

Net Revenue reached R$1.1 billion in the 3Q20, a 49.9% increase compared to the 2Q20 (R$746 million). This increase is mainly due to the increase in the iron ore price, higher sales volume and the appreciation of the Dollar against the Real in the quarter.

Cash cost of production per ton was R$66.7/t in the 3Q20 against R$74.4/t in the 2Q20. Excluding expenses with temporarily inactive beneficiation plants, cash cost was R$64.7/t in the 3Q20 (R$72.3/t in the 2Q20). This reduction mainly reflects greater dilution of fixed costs, associated with the higher volume produced, and the lower use of leased areas.

Cost of goods sold - COGS in the 3Q20 was R$425 million, 30.1% higher than in the previous quarter (2Q20: R$326 million), due to the sales volume increase in the period and higher international freight prices. In unit terms, COGS/t in the 3Q20 was R$185.0/t, a 7.9% increase in relation to the 2Q20 (R$171.4/t), mainly due to the increase in international freight prices, the greater participation of the CFR modality (89%) in export sales and higher costs linked to the dollar.

Adjusted EBITDA reached R$644 million in the 3Q20, with Mineração Usiminas reaching a new historic high in EBITDA in a quarter, representing a 69.4% increase compared to the 2Q20 (R$380 million). Adjusted EBITDA margin reached 57.6% in the 3Q20 (2Q20: 51.0%).

Investments (CAPEX)

CAPEX totaled R$48 million in the 3Q20, compared to R$50 million recorded in the 2Q20. The main investments were made in safety and sustaining CAPEX (with emphasis on the tailings disposal project "Dry Stacking").

STEEL

According to data from Brazilian Steel Institute, the Brazilian steel market absorbed the strong downturn in economic activity resulting from the implementation of measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. The positive result of the 1st quarter of 2020 was followed by a drop of 33% in flat and long steel products apparent consumption the 2nd quarter. In the period between January and August, consumption dropped 7.3% and the Institute projects a 4.7% drop at the year's end.

National consumption of flat rolled products reached 7.4 million tons between January and August, down 10.9% compared to the same period of the previous year. Even after four months of recovery, domestic sales of these products fell 11.0% year over year. Mills exported 1,1 million tons of finished flat products, 16.6% less than last year, while imports, down 9.8%, represented 11.7% of the year's apparent consumption.

According to the National Institute of Steel Distributors (INDA), in August, sales of flat steel in the distribution network increased for the fourth consecutive month. In the comparison of the first eight months of this year with the same period of the previous year, sales decreased by 1%, a result considerably better than that seen at the end of the 1st semester, when the decline was 10%. Inventories were at 763 thousand tons in August, with a turnover equivalent to 2.0 months of sales, based on the volume of the month. The projection for September is that sales of members will maintain the upward trend that started in May.

Production - Ipatinga and Cubatão plants

Crude steel production at the Ipatinga plant was 696 thousand tons in the 3Q20, 30.6% higher than in the 2Q20 (533 thousand tons) due to the return of equipment associated to the recovery of demand for steel products. The production of rolled products at the Ipatinga and Cubatão plants totaled 801 thousand tons in the 3Q20 (2Q20: 676 thousand tons), an 18.5% increase.

Comments on the Results of the Business Unit - Steelmaking

In the 3Q20, Net revenue of the Steel Unit was R$3.0 billion, increasing 61.7% in relation to 2Q20 (R$1.9 billion) mainly due to the higher sales volume, mix of products sold and higher prices.

Cash cost per ton was R$2,445/t in the 3Q20, 5.7% lower than in the 2Q20 (R$2,594/t). Among the main variations in cost per ton in the period, we highlight: (a) lower costs with coal, coke and energy, (b) greater dilution of fixed costs, partially offset by (c) higher cost with purchased slabs, due to the greater participation of this input in the production mix due to the resumption of activities at the Cubatão Plant and (d) higher iron ore cost in the period.

Cost of products sold - COGS was R$2.9 billion in the 3Q20, 45.6% higher than in the 2Q20 (R$2.0 billion), given the higher volume of steel sold in the period. COGS per ton was R$3,066/t in the 3Q20, a 5.2% decrease compared to the 2Q20 (R$3,235/t), mainly due to the lower unit production cost in the period.

Selling expenses totaled R$29 million in the 3Q20, down 36.9% compared to the 2Q20 (R$46 million). This variation results mainly from the recording of a provision for doubtful accounts in the 2Q20 in the amount of R$19 million. This event was non-recurrent in the 3Q20.

In the 3Q20, General and administrative expenses totaled R$77 million, in line with the result presented in the 2Q20 (R$77 million).

Other net operating income (expenses) were a negative R$130 million in the 3Q20, an

18.7% increase compared to the 2Q20 (negative R$110 million), mainly due to:

  • Increase of R$27 million with Idle capacity, mainly due to the shutdown of equipment occurred in the 2Q20 (Stoppage of the Blast Furnaces 1 and 2 and the Steel Shop 1 of Ipatinga Plant, and stoppage of the Cubatão plant's activities). It is worth mentioning that these were events of temporary nature, and that in August 2020, the activities of the Blast Furnace 1, the Steel Shop 1 and the Cubatão plant were resumed. In the 3Q20, these expenses totaled R$111 million, compared to R$84 million in the 2Q20.

Thus, Adjusted EBITDA reached a positive R$157 million in the 3Q20, compared to a negative R$102 million in the previous quarter. The Adjusted EBITDA margin was positive by 5.1% in the 3Q20, compared to the negative margin of 5.4% in the 2Q20.

Investments (CAPEX)

CAPEX totaled R$126 million in 3Q20, a 9.5% decrease compared to the 2Q20 (R$139 million). Investments were mainly applied in sustaining CAPEX, safety and environment.
