Outokumpu will change its segment structure as of January 1, 2018 by separating Ferrochrome operations from Business Area Europe as a new reportable segment. In the new structure, Outokumpu will have four reportable segments – Europe, the Americas, Long Products and Ferrochrome. Outokumpu’s financial reporting will be changed accordingly as of the first-quarter interim statement 2018.

Ferrochrome operations are an integral part of Outokumpu’s business, and will be managed separately. Coupled with Kemi mine, ferrochrome production gives us clear competitive advantage. The change in reporting practices will also increase transparency to our operations.

The segments’ key comparison figures (sales, adjusted EBITDA, adjustments to EBITDA and EBITDA) for 2016 and January-September 2017 are included in the attached table. The full set of comparison data for 2016 and 2017, including quarterly figures, will be published during the first quarter of 2018.
