On July 19, 2016, Usiminas’ extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting homologated a capital increase, and Ternium Investments acquired 62.6 million additional ordinary shares, and Ternium Argentina and Prosid acquired an aggregate 13.8 million additional ordinary shares. As a result of these transactions, Ternium, through its subsidiaries Ternium Investments, Ternium Argentina and Prosid, owned as of June 30, 2023, 242.6 million ordinary shares of Usiminas (representing 34.4% of Usiminas’ ordinary shares) and 8.5 million of Usiminas’ preferred shares (representing 1.6% of Usiminas’ preferred shares), representing, in the aggregate, 20.4% of Usiminas’ share capital.

As of June 30, 2023, the Usiminas control group held, in the aggregate, 483.6 million ordinary shares bound to the Usiminas shareholders’ agreement, representing approximately 68.6% of Usiminas’ voting capital. The Usiminas control group, which was bound by a long-term shareholders’ agreement that governs the rights and obligations of Usiminas’ control group members, was composed as of such date of three sub-groups: the T/T Group; the NSC Group, comprising Nippon Steel Corporation (“NSC”), Metal One Corporation and Mitsubishi Corporation; and Usiminas’ pension fund Previdência Usiminas. The T/T Group held approximately 47.1% of the total shares held by the control group (39.5% corresponding to the Ternium entities and the other 7.6% corresponding to TenarisConfab); the NSC Group held approximately 45.9% of the total shares held by the control group; and Previdência Usiminas held the remaining 7%. The corporate governance rules reflected in the Usiminas shareholders agreement provided, among other things, that Usiminas’ executive board was composed of six members, including the chief executive officer and five vice-presidents, with Ternium and NSC nominating three members each. The right to nominate Usiminas’ chief executive officer alternated between Ternium and NSC at every 4-year interval, with the party that did not nominate the chief executive officer having the right to nominate the chairman of Usiminas’ board of directors for the same 4-year period. The Usiminas shareholders agreement also provided for an exit mechanism consisting of a buy-and-sell procedure—exercisable at any time after November 16, 2022, and applicable with respect to shares held by NSC and the T/T Group—, which would allow either Ternium or NSC to purchase all or a majority of the Usiminas shares held by the other shareholder.

(b) The acquisition of the additional participation

On March 30, 2023, Ternium S.A. announced that its subsidiaries Ternium Investments and Ternium Argentina, together with Confab, a subsidiary of its affiliate Tenaris S.A., all of which compose the T/T group within Usiminas control group, entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire from Nippon Steel Corporation, Mitsubishi and MetalOne (the “NSC group”), pro rata to their current participations in the T/T group, 68.7 million ordinary shares of Usinas Siderúrgicas de Minas Gerais S.A. – USIMINAS (“Usiminas”) at a price of BRL10 per ordinary share.

3. ACQUISITION OF BUSINESS – INCREASE OF THE PARTICIPATION IN USIMINAS CONTROL GROUP AND NEW GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE OF USIMINAS (continued)

On July 3, 2023, the Company announced the completion of the acquisition of this additional participation. Pursuant to the transaction, Ternium paid $ 118.7 million in cash for 57.7 million ordinary shares, increasing its participation in the Usiminas control group to 51.5%.

The Usiminas control group holds the majority of Usiminas’ voting rights. Following the completion of the transaction, the T/T group holds an aggregate participation of 61.3% in the control group, with the NSC group and Previdência Usiminas (Usiminas employees’ pension fund) holding 31.7% and 7.1%, respectively. The Usiminas control group members also agreed a new governance structure, as a result of which the T/T group nominated a majority of the Usiminas board of directors, the CEO and four other members of Usiminas board of officers, and ordinary decisions are approved with a 55% majority of the control group shares.

Pursuant to the Usiminas shareholders agreement, as supplemented by the T/T Group shareholders’ agreement, Ternium started fully consolidating Usiminas balance sheet and results of operations in its consolidated financial statements beginning in July 2023.

As of July 3, 2023, Ternium remeasured its former participation (20.4%) at its fair value as of such date and recognized in its Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, the effects described below.

Consequently, Ternium valued its previously held interest by means of the market quotation of Usiminas share in the Brazilian stock market. Such value as of July 3, 2023, was of 7.36 BRL per share, amounting to a total of $ 385.9 million. This valuation results in the recognition of a loss of $ 441.4 million, which is included along with the gain related to the bargain purchase amounting to $ 270.4 million (see note 3 (d)) in the “Effect related to the increase of the participation in Usiminas” in the income statement for a total of $ 171.0 million.

In addition, IFRS 3, paragraph 42, establishes that the previous interest must be remeasured, and necessary adjustments made as if it were a disposal of the investment. In this case, items previously recognized in other comprehensive income, mainly the CTA (currency translation adjustment) should be recycled to results of the period. The accumulated loss in “Other comprehensive income” as of the acquisition date was $ 934.9 million.

3. ACQUISITION OF BUSINESS – INCREASE OF THE PARTICIPATION IN USIMINAS CONTROL GROUP AND NEW GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE OF USIMINAS (continued)

(d) Fair value of net assets acquired

The fair values determined for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from the acquisition and as of the acquisition date are as follows:


Fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities:						in $ thousands

Property, plant and equipment						904,780
Investments in non-consolidated companies						400,037
Inventories						1,707,311
Cash and cash equivalents						781,072
Other investments						247,005
Trade receivables						764,257
Allowance for doubtful accounts						(44,626)
Other receivables						854,917
Deferred tax assets						1,327,232
Borrowings						(1,224,399)
Provisions						(856,153)
Trade payables						(758,687)
Other assets and liabilities, net						(509,486)
Net assets acquired						3,593,260

Non-controlling interest						(2,818,358)
Remeasurement of previously held interest in Usiminas						(385,851)
Total Purchase consideration						(118,686)
Bargain purchase gain						270,365

Loss on the remeasurement of previously held interest in Usiminas						(441,410)
Net loss effect related to the increase of the participation in Usiminas						(171,045)

The purchase price allocation disclosed above was prepared with the assistance of a third-party expert. Management applied significant judgment in estimating the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which involved the use of significant estimates and assumptions in particular with respect to the estimation of the loss probability for the contingencies, including revenue forecasts, EBITDA margins, capital expenditures and discount rate for the cash flow projections. According to the purchase price allocation, the transaction led to the recognition of a bargain purchase of $ 270.4 million, recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023.

(e) Put and call option

In addition to the share purchase and the new governance structure, a “put” and “call” mechanism was established according to the following scheme:

- NSC group will have the right, at any time after the closing of the transaction, to withdraw its remaining shares from the control group and sell them in the open market after giving the T/T group the opportunity to buy them at the 40-trading day average price per share immediately prior to the NSC group’s notice of withdrawal, as well as the right, at any time after the second anniversary of the closing, to sell such shares to the T/T group at BRL10 per share.

3. ACQUISITION OF BUSINESS – INCREASE OF THE PARTICIPATION IN USIMINAS CONTROL GROUP AND NEW GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE OF USIMINAS (continued)

- At any time after the second anniversary of the closing of the transaction, the T/T group will have the right to buy the NSC group’s remaining interest in the Usiminas control group (153.1 million ordinary shares) at the higher of BRL10 per share and the 40-trading day average price per share immediately prior to the date of exercising the option.

- In the case of the T/T Group, Ternium will decide at its own discretion the execution of the call option, having Confab and Ternium Argentina the option to acquire the shares owned by NSC pro rata to their participation.

IAS 32 requires a liability to be recognized for written puts over non-controlling interests. The liability reflects the entity’s obligation to deliver cash or a financial asset. The financial liability is recognized at present value of the redemption amount and accreted through finance charges in the income statement over the contract period up to the final redemption amount. Ternium has recognized a liability associated with the put option of $ 242.5 million ($ 259.6 million as of September 30, 2024), accounted for in the statement of financial position under Other liabilities, with the corresponding debit in the statement of changes in equity under Non-controlling interest.

(f) Recognition of non-controlling interest

Ternium recognizes non-controlling interests in an acquired entity either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquired entity’s net identifiable assets. This decision is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. For the non-controlling interests in Usiminas, the Company elected to recognize the non-controlling interests at its proportionate share of the acquired net identifiable assets, which led to a non-controlling interest of $ 2,575.9 million, recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023.

(g) Main contingencies associated with the acquired business

Contrary to the recognition principles in IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, IFRS 3 Business Combinations requires an acquirer of a business to recognize contingent liabilities assumed in a business acquisition at the acquisition date even if it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation.


						in $ thousands

Provisions for contingencies recognized by Usiminas before business combination						(199,677)

Provisions for contingencies recognized as part of the business combination:
Tax related contingencies						(432,488)
Civil and other related contingencies						(174,333)
Labour related contingencies						(49,655)
Total Provision for contingencies						(856,153)

Contingencies estimated by Management were related to possible losses arising from administrative proceedings and litigation related to tax, civil and labour matters and based on the advice and assessment of internal and external legal advisors.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

OPERATING SEGMENTS

As of March 31, 2024, following the acquisition of an additional participation in Usiminas on July 3, 2023, the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") performed a review of the new business structure to decide on the allocation of resources and the assessment of performance, and decided to organize the Company in two operating segments: Steel and Mining.

The Steel segment includes the sales of steel products done by the Company's subsidiaries, which comprises mainly slabs, heavy plates, hot and cold rolled products, coated products, stamped steel parts for the automotive industry, roll-formed and tubular products, billets, bars and other products, including sales of energy.

The Mining segment includes the sales of mining products done by the Company's subsidiaries, mainly iron ore and iron ore pellets, and comprises the mining activities of Las Encinas, an iron ore mining company in which Ternium holds a 100% equity interest, the 50% of the operations and results performed by Peña Colorada, another iron ore mining company in which Ternium maintains that same percentage over its equity interest, and the mining activities of Mineraçao Usiminas, an iron ore mining company in which Usiminas holds a 70% equity interest.

Ternium's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") functions as the CODM. The various geographic regions operate as an integrated steel producer. The CEO allocates resources and assesses performance of the Steel Segment as an integrated business and does the same with the Mining Segment. The CEO uses "Operating income - Management view" as per the below table as the key performance measure, which differs from operating income determined in accordance with IFRS principally as follows:

• The use of direct cost methodology to value inventories, while under IFRS they are valued at full cost, including absorption of production overheads and depreciation.

• The use of costs based on previously internally defined cost estimates, while, under IFRS, costs are calculated at historical cost (using the FIFO methodology).

• In the case of Usiminas, the use of costs based on the weighted average cost, while, under IFRS, costs are calculated under the FIFO methodology.

• Other differences related to other operating income and expenses.

Contingencies, commitments and restrictions on the distributions of profits should be read in Note 25 to the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

(i) Tax claims and other contingencies

Provision for ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas

In 2013, the Company was notified of a lawsuit filed in Brazil by Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional, or CSN, and various entities affiliated with CSN against Ternium Investments, its subsidiary Ternium Argentina, and Tenaris’s subsidiary Confab, all of which compose the T/T Group under the Usiminas shareholders agreement. The entities named in the CSN lawsuit had acquired a participation in Usiminas in January 2012. The CSN lawsuit alleged that, under applicable Brazilian laws and rules, the acquirers were required to launch a tag-along tender offer to all non-controlling holders of Usiminas ordinary shares for a price per share equal to 80% of the price per share paid in such acquisition, or BRL 28.8, and sought an order to compel the acquirers to launch an offer at that price plus interest. If so ordered, the offer would need to be made to 182,609,851 ordinary shares of Usiminas not belonging to Usiminas’ control group. Ternium Investments and Ternium Argentina’s respective shares in the offer would be 60.6% and 21.5%.

On September 23, 2013, the first instance court dismissed the CSN lawsuit, and on February 8, 2017, the court of appeals maintained the understanding of the first instance court. On August 18, 2017, CSN filed an appeal to the Superior Court of Justice (SCJ) seeking the review and reversal of the decision issued by the Court of Appeals. On September 10, 2019, the SCJ declared CSN’s appeal admissible. On March 7, 2023, the SCJ, by majority vote, rejected CSN’s appeal. CSN made several submissions in connection with the SCJ decision, including a motion for clarification that challenged the merits of the SCJ decision. Decisions at the SCJ are adopted by majority vote. At an October 17, 2023 session, two justices of the SCJ voted in favor of remanding the case to the first instance for it to be retried following production and assessment of the new evidence, and two justices of the SCJ voted, without requiring any further evidence, in favor of granting CSN’s motion for clarification and reversing the March 7, 2023 decision that rejected CSN’s appeal; because the fifth member of SCJ excused himself from voting, a justice from another panel at the SCJ was summoned to produce the tie-breaking vote.

and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

13. CONTINGENCIES, COMMITMENTS AND RESTRICTIONS ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROFITS (continued)

On June 18, 2024, the SCJ completed its voting on CSN’s motion for clarification and reversed, by majority vote, its March 7, 2023 decision, and resolved that Ternium Investments, its subsidiary Ternium Argentina and Tenaris’s subsidiary Confab should pay CSN an indemnification in connection with the acquisition by the T/T Group a participation in Usiminas in January 2012, with CSN being allowed to retain ownership of the Usiminas ordinary shares it currently owns. Depending on how the indemnification is calculated by other courts (including as to the calculation of monetary adjustment and interest), and assuming monetary adjustment and interest, as determined pursuant to the prevailing vote at the SCJ, through September 30, 2024, the potential aggregate indemnification payable by Ternium Investments and Ternium Argentina could reach up to BRL3.3 billion (approximately $601 million at the BRL/$ rate as of such date) and BRL1.2 billion (approximately $213 million at the BRL/$ rate as of such date), respectively. On August 1, 2024, Ternium Investments, Ternium Argentina and the other T/T Group entities filed a motion for clarification against the SCJ decision and, subsequently, CSN filed its reply. The T/T Group’s motion is still pending, and there is no specific deadline for the SCJ to rule on these filings.

The Company continues to believe that all of CSN's claims and allegations are groundless and without merit, as confirmed by several opinions of Brazilian legal counsel, two decisions issued by the Brazilian securities regulator in February 2012 and December 2016, the first and second instance court decisions and the March 7, 2023 SCJ decision referred to above. The Company also believes that the June 18, 2024 SCJ decision on CSN’s motion for clarification is contrary to applicable substantive and procedural law and Ternium will file all available motions and appeals against the SCJ decision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in light of the recent SCJ decision, the Company cannot predict the ultimate resolution on the matter.

BP Energía México (BPEM) – Arbitration process

On February 2022, BP Energía México (“BPEM”) started an arbitration process against Gas Industrial de Monterrey, S.A. de C.V. (“GIMSA”), Ternium México and Ternium Gas México (“Respondents”), claiming payment for the gas supply from February 12 to February 28, 2021, for $ 27.6 million, $ 12.4 million, and $ 2.4 million, plus V.A.T. and interest, respectively. On June 9, 2024, after the arbitration process was completed, the arbitration award was notified and the Arbitration Tribunal ordered the Respondents to pay BPEM $ 22.0 million, $ 9.9 million and $ 2.1 million, plus V.A.T. and interest, respectively. Additionally, the Parties were ordered to pay expenses and costs for $ 2.4 million. As of September 30, 2024, the Company recognized a provision of $ 34.2 million in its consolidated condensed interim financial statements.

On October 25, 2024, the parties reached an agreement settling the reciprocal claims, and all parties formally dismissed the legal actions initiated with respect to the arbitration award.

PIS and COFINS credits defense action - Usiminas

In August 2024, the Federal Government had filed two new tax claims for a total of approximately BRL 503 million ($ 92 million). The contingencies are related to tax assessments that partially approved offset statements through which Usiminas claimed PIS and COFINS credits arising from a final court decision, which discussed the exclusion of ICMS from the calculation basis of said contributions. The tax authority disagreed with the calculation methodology adopted by Usiminas. Usiminas filed a defense action in the aforementioned proceedings, arguing that the calculations are correct and the credit rights should be recognized.

16. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RESTRICTIONS IN ARGENTINA

Ternium’s Argentine subsidiary, Ternium Argentina S.A., is currently operating in a complex and volatile economic environment.

Between September 2019 and December 13, 2023, the Argentine government imposed significant restrictions on foreign exchange transactions. Although after a new administration took office in Argentina in December 2023 certain restrictions were eased and other changes to such regulations are expected, at the date of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements the application of existing foreign exchange regulations remains uncertain and the scope and timing of upcoming changes remain unknown. The main currently applicable measures are described below:

• Access to the Argentine foreign exchange market (“MULC”) to pay for imports of services rendered by related and non-related parties (including royalties) on or before December 12, 2023, is subject to Argentine Central Bank approval. Currently, these approvals are rarely, if ever, granted. Access to the MULC to pay for imports of services that were rendered or accrued as from December 13, 2023, does not require government approval, but payment is deferred 30 calendar days as from the date of supply or accrual of the service (if the service was rendered by a non-related party) or 180 calendar days (if rendered by a related party).

• In the context of high, but decelerating, inflation during 2024, restrictions of access to the MULC to pay for imports of goods remain, but have been gradually made more flexible. The price for imports with customs clearance on or after October 21, 2024, may be paid in full as from on the 30th day from the date of customs clearance. In addition, the price for imports with customs clearance between August 1 and October 20, 2024, may be paid in two equal installments on the 30th and 60th day from the date of customs clearance, and the price for imports with customs clearance between December 13, 2023, and July 31, 2024, may be paid in four equal installments payable on the 30th, 60th, 90th and 120th day from the date of customs clearance. Access to the MULC to pay for imports that obtained customs clearance on or before December 12, 2023, continues to require Argentine Central Bank approval.

TERNIUM S.A.
Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024
and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

16. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RESTRICTIONS IN ARGENTINA (continued)

• Foreign currency proceeds derived from exports of goods must be sold into the MULC and converted into Argentine pesos within 60 days (if made to related parties) or 180 days (if made to unrelated parties) from shipment date, or, if collected earlier, within five days of collection. Foreign currency proceeds from exports of services must be sold into the MULC and converted into Argentine pesos within five business days of collection. As from December 13, 2023, up to 20% of export of goods or services proceeds can be sold for Argentine pesos through securities transactions resulting in a higher implicit exchange rate, as described further below. This percentage has changed over time.

• Access to the MULC to make dividend payments requires prior Argentine Central Bank approval. When required, Argentine Central Bank approvals are rarely, if ever, granted.

Ternium Argentina carries out all of its import and export transactions through the MULC. Therefore, assets and liabilities in foreign currency as of September 30, 2024, have been valued considering the official exchange rates at the end of the period.

Under Ternium Argentina’s annual accounts as of September 30, 2024, and for the nine-month period then ended, revenues amounted to $ 1,676 million (nine-month period ended September 30, 2023: $ 2,619 million), net profit from continuing operations to $ 167 million (nine-month period ended September 30, 2023: $ 588 million), total assets to $ 5,792 million (December 31, 2023: $ 5,083 million), total liabilities to $ 919 million (December 31, 2023: $ 759 million) and shareholders’ equity to $ 4,873 million (December 31, 2023: $ 4,324 million).

Ternium Argentina’s cash and cash equivalents and other investments amounted to $ 1,188 million as of September 30, 2024, broken down as follows:

- $ 1,146 million in U.S. dollars-denominated instruments in sovereign bonds issued by the Argentine Government and payable in U.S. dollars, and Argentine Treasury bonds related to the official exchange rate. The U.S. dollar value of these instruments recorded in Ternium’s consolidated financial statements is based on their Argentine peso local market price, converted to the U.S. dollar at the ARS/$ official exchange rate. Therefore, the valuation of such investments is subject to the volatility of the Argentine financial market and currency exchange rates, leading to a potential significant reduction of such value in the consolidated financial statements.

- $ 28 million in negotiable obligations and promissory notes issued by Argentine export driven companies in U.S. dollars and mainly payable in Argentine pesos.

- $ 14 million in Argentine pesos-denominated instruments.

Ternium Argentina’s financial position in ARS as of September 30, 2024, amounted to $ 201 million in monetary assets and $ 261 million in monetary liabilities. All of Ternium Argentina’s ARS-denominated assets and liabilities are valued at the prevailing official exchange rate. The Argentine peso devaluated by approximately 55% upon the change of government. In the event of an additional devaluation, Ternium Argentina may be adversely affected, and will also suffer a loss on deferred tax charge as a result of a deterioration on the tax value of their fixed assets. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate all impacts of a new devaluation of the Argentine peso against the U.S. dollar.

and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

16. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RESTRICTIONS IN ARGENTINA (continued)

On April 24, 2023, Ternium Argentina’s board of directors approved the payment of a dividend in kind in US dollar-denominated Argentine bonds for a total amount of up to $ 624 million. On May 4, 2023, Ternium received its share of the dividend in kind. Considering the impact of foreign exchange restrictions in Argentina and based on the value of the bonds in the international market, Ternium recorded in its equity a negative reserve as of the collection date. With the disposal of a portion of these instruments, the Company partially reclassified such reserve to financial results. As of September 30, 2024, the equity reserve was fully reclassified to financial results upon disposal of these remaining bonds.

This context of volatility and uncertainty remains in place as of the issue date of these Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements. Management continues to monitor closely the evolution of the main variables affecting its business, identifying the potential impact thereof on its financial and economic situation and determining the appropriate course of action in each case. The Company’s Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements should be read taking into account these circumstances.
