ITR –– Quarterly Financial Information - March 31, 2015 – CIA SIDERURGICA NACIONAL |
Version: 1 |
Global economic activity is showing gradual signs of a recovery. The U.S. economy continues to grow moderately, while most of the European countries managed to reverse in 2014, the shrinkage of recent years. The emerging economies, however, have been presenting a slower growth pace.
The global Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) closed March at 53.5 points. The IMF expects global GDP growth of 3.5% this year and 3.7% in 2016.
USA
The U.S. activity indicators are pointing to a moderate economic growth. GDP growth of 0.2% in 1Q15 was negatively impacted by the rigorous winter and port strikes on the west coast, which jeopardized exports. The FED estimates 2015 GDP growth of between 2.3% and 2.7%.
Although industrial production fell by 0.6% in March over February, the 12-month figure moved up by 2.0%, with installed capacity use of 78.4%.
Unemployment fell to 5.5% in March, 1.1 p.p. down on the same month last year and within the 5.2% to 5.5% band considered by most of the FOMC (the FED’s Monetary Policy Committee) to be full employment.
In the 12 months through March, the Consumer Price Index dipped by 0.2%, well below the FOMC’s target of 2% p.a.
Given this scenario, at its last meeting in April the FOMC deemed it appropriate to maintain interest rates at between 0 and 0.25% until the labor market improves and inflation converges towards the 2% p.a. target.
Europe
The Eurozone is showing signs of a recovery in activity, with the adoption of an expansionist monetary policy by the ECB. The block’s compound PMI reached 54.0 points in March 2015, versus 53.3 points in February, while industrial production increased by 1.1% in February over previous month.
According to Eurostat, unemployment rate was 11.3% in March 2015, flat over the previous month, but below the 11.7% recorded in March of last year. Of the member nations, Germany posted the lowest rate, with 4.7%, while Greece and Spain had the highest, with 25.7% and 23%, respectively.
Also according to Eurostat, retail sales fell by 0.2% in February 2015 over January but moved up by 3% year-on-year.
In the UK, manufacturing PMI closed March at 54.4 points, the highest figure for the last eight months. According to the British Treasury, the consensus of estimates points to GDP growth of 2.7% in 2015. The consumer price index edged up by 0.3% in 1Q15 over 1Q14.
Asia
China has been showing signs of a slowdown in growth. Preliminary figures from the Chinese Bureau of Statistics indicate GDP expansion of 7.0% in 1Q15, versus 7.4% in 1Q14, but still within the target defined by the government. Manufacturing PMI, disclosed by HSBC, has been signaling a deterioration in economic conditions since December 2014 and closed March at 49.6 points.
The growth rate of Investments in fixed assets fell from 17.6% in 1Q14 to 13.5% in 1Q15, while industrial production growth of 5.6% in the 12 months through March 2015 was below the average of 7.9% recorded in the previous 12 months.
The deceleration in the construction industry was even more apparent. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, sector investments increased by 8.5% in 1Q15, close to half the 16.8% recorded in 1Q14.

Given this scenario, the Chinese government once again reduced the reserve requirements rate by 1 p.p. and further monetary and fiscal stimuli are expected ahead.
Japan continued to stage a moderate recovery. Manufacturing PMI fell to 50.3 points in March 2015 from 51.6 points in the previous month, while retail sales declined from 1.3% in January 2015 over December 2014. Despite the government measures to stimulate the economy, inflation remained below the target of 2% p.a. determined by the Japanese Central Bank, whose Monetary Policy Committee estimates GDP growth of between 1.5% and 2.1% in 2015.
Brazil
Against a background of political uncertainty, Brazil’s economy slowed, accompanied by increased inflation, higher interest rates and the depreciation of the currency.
GDP in 2014 remained virtually flat over the previous year, while in the 12 months through February 2015, the seasonally-adjusted Central Bank Economic Activity Index (IBC-Br) fell by 0.6%.
According to a survey by the CNI (National Confederation of Industry), industrial production fell in March, with the index closing at 48.2 points, under 50 points.
The Central Bank’s FOCUS report estimates GDP shrinkage of 1.18% in 2015, followed by growth of 1.0% in 2016.
Inflation measured by the IPCA consumer price index increased by 1.32% in March, giving 8.13% in 12 months, above the ceiling of the inflationary target defined by the Monetary Policy Committee (COPOM). As a result, the COPOM has been maintaining a restrictive monetary policy, raising the Selic benchmark interest rate by 0.5 p.p. to 13.25% p.a. at its last meeting in April. The FOCUS report expects 2015 inflation of 8.26%, with a Selic of 13.50% at year-end.
On the foreign exchange front, the dollar appreciated by 20.8% against the real in 1Q15, closing March at R$3.208.

Consolidated net revenue totaled R$4,010 million in 1Q15, 5.0% up on the previous quarter, chiefly due to higher net revenue from the steel segment, which offset the reduction in revenue from the mining segment.
In 1Q15, consolidated COGS came to R$3,025 million, 4% more than in 4Q14, mainly due to lower steel product sales volume.

Gross profit totaled R$985 million in 1Q15, 7% up on the previous three months, primarily due to the gross profit from the steel segment.
SG&A expenses totaled R$411 million in 1Q15, 9% down on the R$450 million recorded in 4Q14, mainly due to lower expenses with iron ore freight, given the Company’s sales strategy.
Other Operating Expenses (Revenues) amounted to R$214 million in 1Q15, 28% less than the R$295 million posted in quarter before, basically due to the non-recurring negative impact of R$133 million in 4Q14, related to the reclassification of accrued losses from investments in shares recorded as available for sale, partially offset by the addition of tax provisions of R$34 million in 1Q15.
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure the segments' performance and operating cash flow capacity. It comprises net income before the net financial result, income and social contribution taxes, depreciation and amortization, results from investees and other operating revenue (expenses). Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s proportional interest in Namisa, MRS Logística and CBSI. Adjusted EBITDA totaled R$911 million in 1Q15, 10% down on 4Q14, basically due to the EBITDA from the steel and mining segments. The adjusted EBITDA margin EBITDA came to 22%, 3 p.p. down on the previous quarter.
The 1Q15 equity result totaled R$398 million, 62%, or R$152 million more than in 4Q14, essentially due to the positive result from the joint controlled entity, Namisa.
The 1Q15 net financial result was negative by R$870 million, chiefly due to the following factors:
· Interest on loans and financing totaling R$803 million;
· Expenses of R$11 million with the monetary restatement of tax installments;
· Other financial expenses totaling R$47 million;
· Monetary and exchange variations amounting to R$65 million;
These negative effects were partially offset by consolidated financial revenues of R$56 million.
Gross debt, net debt and the net debt/EBITDA ratio presented below reflect the Company’s proportional interest in Namisa, MRS Logística and CBSI, as well as the impact from the partial spin-off of Transnordestina Logística S/A.
On March 31, 2015, consolidated net debt came to R$20.0 billion, R$1.1 billion more than the R$18.9 billion recorded at the end of 4Q14, mainly due to:

CONVENIENCE TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH FROM THE ORIGINAL PREVIOUSLY ISSUED IN PORTUGUESE |
| |
ITR –– Quarterly Financial Information - March 31, 2015 – CIA SIDERURGICA NACIONAL |
Version: 1 |
· Dividend payments of R$0.5 billion;
· Investments of R$0.4 billion in fixed assets;
· A R$0.7 billion effect related to the cost of debt;
· Net foreign exchange variation of R$0.4 billion.
These effects were partially offset by 1Q15 EBITDA of R$0.9 billion.
The net debt/EBITDA ratio based on LTM adjusted EBITDA closed the first quarter at 4.8x, 0.8x up on the ratio recorded at the end of the previous quarter.
CSN posted consolidated net income of R$392 million in 1Q15, R$325 million higher than in 4Q14, primarily due to the upturn in gross profit, reduced operating expenses, the improved equity result and the timing difference between the tax and accounting treatment of the foreign exchange variation.
Investments reflect the Company’s proportional interest in Namisa, MRS Logística and CBSI. The Company has ceased consolidating its interest in Transnordestina Logística S/A, due to the latter’s partial spin-off at the end of 2013, and the consequent entry into effect of the new shareholders’ agreement.
CSN invested R$407 million in 1Q15, allocated as follows:
ü Mining: R$123 million;
ü Steel: R$121 million;
ü Cement: R$90 million;
ü Logistics: R$73 million.
At the close of 1Q15, working capital allocated to the Company’s businesses totaled R$2.65 billion, very close to the end-of-2014 figure, given that the increase in accounts receivable and the reduction in the suppliers line were virtually offset by the reduction in inventories, due to the sending of finished products to the subsidiaries abroad and the upturn in taxes payable. The inventory turnover period narrowed by 11 days, offsetting the 5-day increase in the average receivables period and the 6-day reduction in the average supplier payment period.

Production Costs (Parent Company)
In 1Q15, the Presidente Vargas Steelworks’ total production costs came to R$1.55 billion, 3% up on 4Q14, chiefly due the R$84 million rise in expenses with reducing agents as a result of the devaluation of the real, and higher consumption of imported coke due to the revamp of the coke plants, partially offset by the R$42 million reduction in depreciation expenses as a result of the revision of the working life of fixed assets carried out at the end of 2014.
STEEL PRODUCTION COSTS (Parent Company)
Scenario
In 1Q15, prices in the seaborne iron ore market continued to fall, reaching their lowest levels since the index was created in mid-2008. On the supply side, high output from the main Australian mining companies and the resilience of the high-cost producers were chiefly responsible for the decline. On the demand side, the slowdown on the real estate sector and the reduced pace of industrial activity in China jeopardized local demand for steel, limiting steel production and iron ore consumption growth.
Given this scenario, the Platts Fe62% CFR China index averaged US$62.40/dmt in 1Q15, 16% down on the 4Q14 average. The iron ore quality premium varied between US$1.10/dmt and US$1.30/dmt per 1% of Fe content, while freight costs on the Tubarão/Qingdao route fell by a hefty 44% over 4Q14, averaging US$10.56/wmt.
Considering the significant drop in seaborne iron ore prices , CSN is focused on several measures to reduce its production costs , including extraction and processing of seaborne iron ore and port and freight costs, to remain among the most competitive mining companies of the world.
Brazil exported 79 million tonnes of iron ore in the first quarter, 17% down on 4Q14.

Iron Ore Sales
Iron ore sales totaled 5.4 million tonnes1 in 1Q15, 28% less than in the previous quarter, given the optimization of the product mix. Of this total, 4.8 million tonnes came from Casa de Pedra mine and 0.6 million tonnes from Namisa1. The Tecar terminal shipped 6.3 million tonnes, while own consumption came to 1.4 million tonnes.
1 Sales volumes include 100% of the stake in NAMISA.
Net Revenue
Net revenue from mining operations came to R$658 million in 1Q15, 21% down on the quarter before, due to the decline in international iron ore prices and the reduction in sales volume, partially offset by the devaluation of the real and improvement in the product mix.
Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)
Mining COGS totaled R$567 million in 1Q15, 23% less than in 4Q14 due to the cost reduction programs implemented by the Company, lower costs with iron ore purchases from third-parties, and the reduction in sales volume.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted first-quarter EBITDA came to R$156 million, 22% down on 4Q14, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 24%, identical to the previous quarter’s figure.
Scenario
Port Logistics
According to ANTAQ (National Waterway Transport Agency), Brazil’s port installations handled around 969 million tonnes in 2014, 4.3% up on the year before. Bulk solids totaled 590 million tonnes and containers came to 9.3 million TEUs1, 3.7% and 4.7% more, respectively, than in 2013.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional “CSN”, also referred to as the Company or Parent Company, is a publicly-held company incorporated on April 9, 1941, under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil (Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional, its subsidiaries, joint ventures, joint operations and associates collectively referred to herein as the "Group”). The Company’s registered office is located in São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
CSN has shares listed on the São Paulo Stock Exchange (BM&F BOVESPA) and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Accordingly, it reports its information to the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The Group's main operating activities are divided into five (5) operating segments as follows:
· Steel:
The Company’s main industrial facility is the Presidente Vargas Steel Mill (“UPV”), located in the city of Volta Redonda, State of Rio de Janeiro. This segment consolidates the operations related to the production, distribution and sale of flat steel, long steel, metallic containers and galvanized steel. In addition to the facilities in Brazil, CSN has operations in the United States, Portugal and Germany aimed at gaining markets and performing excellent services for final consumers. Its steels are used in the home appliances, civil construction and automobile industries. CSN holds the concession to operate TECAR a solid bulk terminal, one of the four terminals that form the Port of Itaguai, located in Rio de Janeiro. Imports of coal and coke are made through this terminal.
· Mining:
The production of iron ore is developed in the city of Congonhas, in the State of Minas Gerais. It further mines tin in the State of Rondônia to supply the needs of UPV, with the excess of these raw materials being sold to subsidiaries and third parties.
Iron ore is substantially sold in the international market, especially in Europe and Asia. The prices in force in these markets are historically cyclical and subject to significant fluctuations over short periods as a result of many factors related to global demand, to the strategies adopted by major steel producers and to the exchange rate. All these factors are beyond the Company's control. The outflow of the ore is done by TECAR.
· Cement:
CSN entered the cement market boosted by the synergy between this new activity and its already existing businesses. Next to the Presidente Vargas Steel Mill in Volta Redonda (RJ), it installed a new business unit: CSN Cimentos, which produces CP-III type cement by using slag produced by the UPV blast furnaces in Volta Redonda. It also explores limestone and dolomite at the Arches drive in the State of Minas Gerais, to supply the needs of UPV and of the cement plant.
· Logistics
Railroads:
CSN has equity interests in three railroad companies: MRS Logística S. A., which manages the former Southeast Railway System of Rede Ferroviária Federal S.A., Transnordestina Logística S. A. (“TLSA”) and FTL - Ferrovia Transnordestina Logística S.A. (“FTL”), which operate the Northeast Railway System of RFFSA, in the States of Maranhão, Piauí, Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Pernambuco and Alagoas, with TLSA being responsible for the sections of Missão Velha - Salgueiro, Salgueiro - Trindade, Trindade - Eliseu Martins, Salgueiro - Porto de Suape and Missão Velha - Porto de Pecém (Railway System II) and FTL being responsible for the sections of São Luiz - Mucuripe, Arrojado - Recife, Itabaiana - Cabedelo, Paula Cavalcante - Macau and Propriá - Jorge Lins (Railway System I).

The funds available in the Company and subsidiaries set up in Brazil are basically invested in investment funds, classified as exclusive, which were consolidated, with repurchase agreements backed by government and private securities, with fixed rate yield and immediate liquidity.
Private securities are short-term investments in Bank Deposit Certificates (CDBs) with yields pegged to the Interbank Deposit Certificate (CDI) fluctuation, and government securities are basically repurchase agreements backed by National Treasury Notes and National Treasury Bills. The funds are managed by BTG Pactual Serviços Financeiros S.A. DTVM and Caixa Econômica Federal and their assets collateralize possible losses on investments and transactions carried out. The funds’ investments were also consolidated in the individual financial statements.
A significant part of the funds of the Company and its foreign subsidiaries is invested in time deposits with leading banks, bearing fixed rates. Additionally, in 2015 there were capital reductions in the subsidiaries Nacional Minérios and Cia Metalic, in the amount of R$486,758. (See note 7 (b).)

In accordance with CSN’ internal sales policy and the maintenance of its short-term receivables (up to 7 days), the Company has transactions relating to assignment of receivables without co-obligation in which, after assigning the customer’s trade notes/bills and receiving the amounts from each transaction closed, CSN settles the trade receivables and becomes entirely free of the credit risk on the transaction. This transaction totals R$331,395 as of March 31, 2015 (R$264,411 as of December 31, 2014), less the trade receivables.

· NACIONAL MINÉRIOS S.A. - (“Namisa”)
New strategic alliance with the Asian Consortium
On December 11, 2014, CSN’s Board of Directors approved the formation of a strategic alliance with the Asian Consortium.
This transaction consists of creating a joint venture between CSN and the Asian Consortium, under which the Asian Consortium will contribute its 40% stake in Namisa to Congonhas Minérios S.A. (“Congonhas Minérios”), a non-operating subsidiary of CSN, and to which CSN will contribute its Casa de Pedra iron ore mine, its 60% stake in Namisa, its 8.63% stake in MRS, and the assets of and the rights to manage and operate the TECAR Port concession.
As a result of CSN’s and the Asian Consortium’s contributions and the agreements reached during the negotiations between the parties, immediately after the transaction is closed CSN and the Asian Consortium will hold 88.25% and 11.75% of Congonhas Minérios’ capital on a debt free and cash basis, respectively. The final stakes will be determined taking into account the debt and cash adjustments, and the working capital difference on the closing date.
The transaction also provides for an earn-out mechanism, under which a qualifying liquidity event occurring within certain valuation parameters and a given period of time agreed after the transaction is closed could dilute the Consortium’s equity interest in Congonhas Minérios from 11.75% up to 8.21%.

Version: 1 |
The transaction’s primary purpose is to capture synergies among the businesses involved in this reorganization and generate shareholder value to create a world-class company. The main synergies identified are related to procedure optimization, increasing operation efficiencies and cutting operating costs, and capital expansion.
Part of Congonhas Minérios’ iron ore production will be sold to members of the Asian Consortium and CSN. These rights are laid down in long-term supply agreements.
The transaction closing is subject to the parties reaching a consensus on a business plan, regulatory approvals by antitrust authorities and the governmental authorities responsible for regulating mining rights, and other conditions precedent usual in this type of transaction. The closing date is scheduled for the end of 2015.

II – Investments in financial instruments classified as available for sale and measured at fair value through OCI
These consist mainly of investments in shares acquired in Brazil involving top ranked companies, which are recognized in non-current assets, and any gains or losses are recognized in shareholders' equity, where they will remain until actual realization of the securities or when any loss is considered unrecoverable.
Impairment of financial assets classified as available for sale
The Company has investments in common (USIM3) and preferred (USIM5) shares (“Usiminas Shares”), designated as available-for-sale financial assets as they do not meet the criteria to be classified within any of the other categories of financial instruments (loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss). The asset is classified as a non-current asset under line item “investments” and is carried at fair value based on the quoted price on the stock exchange (BM&FBOVESPA).
Considering the volatility of the quotations of Usiminas shares, the Company evaluated whether, at the end of the reporting period, there was objective evidence of impairment of these financial assets, i.e., the Company’s management evaluated if the decline in the market value of Usiminas shares should be considered either significant or prolonged. In turn, this valuation requires judgment based on CSN’s policy, prepared according to practices used in the domestic and international markets, and consists of an instrument by instrument analysis based on quantitative and qualitative information available in the market, from the time an instrument shows a drop of 20% or more in its market value or from the time there is a significant drop in its market value as compared to its acquisition price during more than twelve months.
As of March 31, 2015, after a new decline in the quoted prices of the common shares (USIM5) as compared with the quoted prices as of December 31, 2014, the Company reclassified the accumulated losses for the quarter recognized in other comprehensive income, amounting to R$5,555, net of income tax and social contribution, to profit (loss) for the period, recognizing R$8,417 in other operating expenses and R$2,862 in deferred taxes
Beginning this date, pursuant to a Company's policy, gains and losses arising from the variation of the quotation of shares were recognized in other comprehensive income.
The Company’s interest in Usiminas has not changed as compared with the percentage disclosed in the financial statements as of December 31, 2014.
· Share Market risks
The Company is exposed to the risk of changes in share prices due to the investments made and classified as available-for-sale.
The Company considers as probable scenario the amounts carried at market values as of March 31, 2015, net of tax of R$741,796. Therefore, there is no impact on the financial instruments classified as available-for-sale.
According to the Company’s accounting policies, any negative changes in the investment in Usiminas considered significant (impairment) are recognized in profit or loss, and positive changes are recognized in comprehensive income until the investment is realized.
III - Financial Instrument Policies:
As of March 31, 2015, there were no changes in the financial risk management policies in relation to those disclosed in the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.

(*) The positions of the swap transactions were settled in January 2015
(**) The positions of the swap transactions were settled in May 2014, together with their guarantee deposit.
Fixed rate-to-CDI swap
The purpose of this transaction is to peg obligations subject to a post-fixed rate (CDI) to a fixed rate. Basically, the Company contracted swaps for its obligations indexed to CDI, in which it receives interest on the notional amount (long position) and pays a pre-fixed rate on the notional amount of the contract date (short position). The gains and losses on this contract are directly related to CDI fluctuations. In general, these are transactions conducted in the Brazilian over-the-counter market that have as counterparty a prime financial institution.
· Hedge accounting
Beginning November 1, 2014, the Company formally designated cash flow hedging relationships to protect highly probable future cash flows against US dollar fluctuations.
In order to better reflect the accounting impacts of this foreign exchange hedging strategy on its profit, CSN designated part of its US dollar-denominated liabilities as a hedging instrument of its future exports. As a result, foreign exchange differences arising on translating the designated liabilities will be temporarily recognized in shareholders’ equity and allocated to profit or loss when such exports are carried out, which will allow recognizing the US dollar impact on liabilities and exports concurrently.
The table below shows a summary of the hedging relationships:

(*) The Company taxes foreign exchange differences on a cash basis to calculate income tax and social contribution.
As of March 31, 2015, the information related to the Group´s income tax and social contribution loss carryforwards did not have significant changes in relation to that disclosed in the Company´s financial statements as of December 31, 2014 (note 13). As a result, the estimated recovery of the deferred tax assets remains the same as previously disclosed by the Company.
The Company’s corporate structure includes foreign subsidiaries whose profits are subject to income tax levied by the related countries, recognized at tax rates lower than in Brazil.
In the 2011 period to the first quarter of 2015, these subsidiaries generated profits amounting to R$3,870,350, which tax authorities may understand that have already been distributed, hence, it would be subject to additional taxation in Brazil, in the approximate amount of R$1,315,919. The Company, based on its legal counsel's opinion, assessed the likelihood of loss in a potential challenge by tax authorities as possible and, therefore, no provision was recognized in the condensed interim financial statements.
· Law 12.973/14
Law 12.973, enacted in May 2014, brought significant changes to tax legislation, which among others, revoked the Transition Tax Regime (RTT).Theses changes directly impact the determination of the income tax and social contribution basis. As from 2015, the application of the Law is mandatory and CSN applied the Law´s requirements to the interim financial statements as of March 31, 2015.

The provision for tax, social security, labor, civil and environmental liabilities was estimated by management and is mainly based on the legal counsel’s assessment. Only proceedings for which the risk is classified as probable loss are accrued. Moreover, this provision includes tax liabilities resulting from contingencies filed by the Company, subject to SELIC (Central Bank’s policy rate).
§ Other administrative and judicial proceedings
In the first quarter ended on March 31, 2015, there were no significant changes in the proceeding´s progress classified as possible risk of loss by the external legal counsel. The table below shows a summary of the balance of the main legal matters compared with the balance at December 31, 2014. The increase in the period substantially reflects the monetary adjustment.

Version: 1 |
1. Refers to loans of the subsidiary FTL - Ferrovia Transnordestina Logística S.A to the joint venture Transnordestina Logística S.A.
2. Nacional Minérios S.A: Asset: Refers mainly to prepayment transactions with the indirect subsidiaries CSN Europe, CSN Export and CSN Ibéria. Contracts in US$: interest equivalent to 5.37% with final maturity in June 2015. As of March 31, 2015, borrowings total R$55,930 (R$364,118 as of December 31, 2014) and accounts receivable in the amount of R$81,300 (R$80,003 as of December 31, 2014 related to iron ore purchases.
Liabiliy: Refers mainly to the advance from customer received from jointly controlled entity Nacional Minérios S.A. regarding the contractual obligation of supply of iron ore and port services. The contract is subject to interest rate of 12.5% p.a. and expires in September 2042.
As disclosed in note 7.c), the Company signed an investment agreement for the new strategic alliance formed with the Asian Consortium. During the procedures required to close the transaction, the interest established in the agreements was canceled; however, a resolutive condition was introduced to reinstate the collection of interest retrospectively if the deal is not closed. However, since CSN holds 60% stake in Namisa, the Company began to accrue 40% interest provided for in contracts that would be due to Asian partners, in the case the deal does not occur.
3. Transnordestina Logística S.A: Refers mainly to contracts in R$: interest equivalent to 108.00% of the CDI with final maturity in March 2017. As of March 31, 2015, borrowings total R$154,317 (R$141,358 as of December 31, 2014 classified in short term and R$43,955 classified in long term.

Adjusted EBITDA is the tool based on which the chief operating decision maker measures segment performance and the capacity to generate recurring operating cash, and consists of profit for the year less net finance income (costs), income tax and social contribution, depreciation and amortization, share of profits of investments, and other operating income (expenses), plus the proportional EBITDA of jointly controlled entities.
Even though it is an indicator used in segment performance measurements, EBITDA is not a measurement recognized by accounting practices adopted in Brazil or IFRS, does not have a standard definition, and may not be comparable with measurements using similar names provided by other entities.

25. INSURANCE
Aiming to properly mitigate risk and in view of the nature of its operations, the Company and its subsidiaries have taken out several different types of insurance policies. Such policies are contracted in line with the CSN Risk Management policy and are similar to the insurance taken out by other companies operating in the same lines of business as CSN and its subsidiaries. The risks covered under such policies include the following: Domestic Transportation, International Transportation, Carrier’s Civil Liability, Life and Casualty, Health Coverage, Fleet Vehicles, D&O (Civil Liability Insurance for Directors and Officers),
General Civil Liability, Engineering Risks, Sundry Risks, Export Credit, Performance Bond and Port Operator’s Civil Liability.
In 2014, after negotiation with insurers and reinsurers in Brazil and abroad, an Insurance Issue Certificate was issued for the contracting of a policy of Operational Risk of Property Damages and Loss of Profits, with effect from September 30, 2014 to September 30, 2015. Under the insurance policy, the LMI (Maximum Limit of Indemnity) is US$600,000,000 and covers the following units and subsidiaries of the Company: Usina Presidente Vargas, Mineração Casa de Pedra, CSN Paraná, Terminal de Cargas Tecar, Terminal Tecon, Namisa, CSN Handel and Namisa Handel. CSN takes responsibility for a range of retention of US$375,000,000 in excess of the deductibles for property damages and loss of profits.
In view of their nature, the risk assumptions adopted are not part of the scope of an audit of financial statements and, accordingly, were not audited by our independent auditors.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional
São Paulo – SP
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional (the “Company”), identified as Parent and Consolidated, respectively, included in the Interim Financial Information Form (ITR), for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, which comprises the balance sheet as of March 31, 2015 and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, including the explanatory notes.
The Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Financial Information and international standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, as well as for the presentation of such information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation of the Interim Financial Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on review of interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards on auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion on interim financial information
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the interim financial information referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34, applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information (ITR), and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the CVM.

Other matters
Statements of value added
We have also reviewed the individual and consolidated statements of value added (DVA) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s Management, the presentation of which is required by the standards issued by the CVM applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information (ITR) and considered as supplemental information for International Financial Reporting Standards - IFRSs, which do not require the presentation of DVA. These statements were subject to the same review procedures described above, and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that they were not prepared, in all material respects, consistently with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.
The accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information has been translated into English for the convenience of readers outside Brazil.
