Based on planning by the individual business units, and taking account of significant effects from measures as well as structural improvements from the "Salzgitter AG 2015" groupwidep g g pproject, we assume the following in the year 2014:

• sales of almost € 10 billion• sales of almost € 10 billion …• … a significant increase in the pre-tax result, approximating breakeven,

compared with the financial year 2013 and …

As in recent years, we make reference to the fact that opportunities and risks from currently unforeseeable trends in selling prices, input material prices and capacity level developments, as well as changes in the currency parity, may considerably affect performance in the course of the financial year 2014. The resulting fluctuation in the consolidated pre-tax result may, as current events show, be within a
