| Please note that whereas the additional impairment of US$76 million (nil 
income tax effect) and the revaluation deficit of US$420 million (net of income 
tax effect of US$144 million) recognised through the change in accounting policy 
are one-off charges, the increase in depreciation expense of US$558 million (net 
of income tax effect of US$148 million) as a result of the change in accounting 
policy will affect our profitability in the future 
 
Alexander Frolov, Chief Executive of Evraz Group, commented: 
 
"The year 2009 proved challenging for Evraz and the global steel industry in 
general. We were particularly affected by the contraction of the Russian 
construction sector and the slow-down in infrastructure spending in the markets 
where our production facilities are located: North America, Europe and South 
Africa. 
 
"At the onset of the international economic reversal, management developed and 
executed an action plan specifically designed to reduce the Company's cost base 
and reinforce the balance sheet. We have delivered on all our priorities and I 
am confident that the Company had significantly strengthened its operating base. 
 
"Our Russian steelmaking operations have been running at full capacity since 1 
July 2009 on the back of improved demand for steel products from South East 
Asia, the Middle East and North Africa.  This, together with increased prices, 
helped to raise our EBITDA margin from 10% in the first half of 2009 to 15% in 
the second half." 
 
Giacomo Baizini, Evraz Group's Chief Financial Officer, commented: 
 
"Our net loss of US$1,261 million for 2009 reflects the global softness of steel 
markets. In order to aid comparison with previous years' results, however it 
should be noted that in the absence of the effect of the revaluation of certain 
asset classes due to the change in accounting policy under IAS16, the net loss 
would have amounted to US$207 million. This change resulted in additional 
depreciation of US$558 million (net of income tax effect of US$148 million) due 
to higher asset values, a loss from the revaluation deficit of US$420 million 
(net of income tax effect of US$144 million) recognised on the date of 
revaluation, and an additional impairment loss on goodwill of US$76 million (nil 
income tax effect). 
 
"Prices for semi-finished and finished products have been rising steadily since 
the second quarter of 2009 in line with higher raw material prices.  Due to 
significant scale of our vertical integration (2H2009: 96% self-coverage in iron 
ore and 74% self-coverage in coking coal excluding the Raspadskaya stake or 117% 
including the Raspadskaya stake) integrated EBITDA margins increased, although 
further gains in the fourth quarter of 2009 were limited by global increases in 
scrap prices. 
 
"In a rising price environment we are subject to a short-term time lag due to 
the fact that export prices are typically fixed one to three months ahead of 
production, while prices for externally procured raw materials are fixed 
immediately prior to the month of production. This means that the full benefit 
of higher prices will not become fully apparent until the trend stabilises." 
 
 
Management actions 
 
Operations and sales: 
 
·     In the wake of de-stocking activity in 1H2009, the priority during 2H2009 
was to increase output. Overall steelmaking utilisation improved from 75% in 
1H2009 to 90% in 2H2009. In Russia and Ukraine, 100% utilisation was achieved as 
from 1 July 2009 through increased exports 
·     Maximum utilisation of internal raw material and semi-finished supply, 
while also taking advantage of optimisation opportunities (e.g. physical iron 
ore swap with another mining company in Russia to save rail transportation 
costs) 
·     Labour costs cut by 27% in 2009 compared to 2008 through reduced salaries, 
elimination of bonuses, reduction of shifts and decreased headcount 
·     Cost of services and auxiliary materials reduced by 28% in 2009 compared 
with 2008 following extensive negotiations with suppliers 
·      As a result of these actions and Rouble devaluation, integrated cash cost 
per tonne of semi-finished steel products in Russia decreased to an average 260 
US$/tonne for 2009 compared with an average 410 US$/tonne for 2008 
·     Attention given to maximising margins through monthly evaluations of the 
profitability of individual product lines and relevant sales destinations 
compared with available alternatives 
 
CAPEX: 
 
·     CAPEX in 2009 amounted to US$441 million, a significant reduction compared 
with US$1,103 million total for 2008 
·     Reduction principally achieved through delay of development CAPEX but also 
through minimising maintenance while fully observing safety requirements 
 
Financial management: 
 
·     Raised US$965 million in convertible bond and GDR issues in July 2009 
·     Raised US$683 million in Rouble bond issues in October 2009 
·     US$654 million released from working capital largely through reduction of 
finished goods inventory in 1H2009 
·     Reset covenants on existing bank debt and bonds with ample headroom even 
assuming the most pessimistic scenarios 
 
 
Outlook 
 
Commenting on the outlook for 2010 and beyond Mr. Frolov said: 
 
"Since the beginning of 2010 we have seen improvements in demand in all our 
markets. Steel prices have risen on a global basis, in line with raw material 
prices, and this will translate into improved results for us due to the scale of 
our vertical integration. 
 
"The Russian domestic market is showing an encouraging trend with construction 
steel sales volumes currently above the highest monthly levels achieved in 2009, 
having grown steadily since the beginning of the year. Export demand remains 
strong and this will allow us to continue running our Russian steelmaking 
operations at full capacity. 
 
"The North American market has also demonstrated marked improvements since the 
start of the year and this, in turn, will allow us to increase utilisation rates 
in our US and Canadian plants. 
 
"In the medium-term we expect that global demand for long steel products and 
structural flat products will continue to strengthen on the back of 
infrastructure investments. 
 
"Our focus on raw material supply, which ensures that our steel plants are 
supplied with low extraction cost iron ore and coking coal, will continue to 
underwrite the fundamental strength of our business." 
 
Mr. Baizini added: 
 
"We expect first quarter 2010 EBITDA to be somewhat higher than that for the 
fourth quarter of 2009, and we anticipate a figure in the order of US$400 
million. The full impact of growing steel prices is expected to be reflected in 
our financial performance later in 2010. 
 
"The capital markets continue to be receptive to us as illustrated by our US$500 
million issue of Rouble-denominated bonds in March 2010 for the refinancing of 
short-term maturities.  This, together with the fact that the Group continues to 
be free cash flow positive on a quarterly basis, gives us confidence in our 
ability to manage liquidity and our debt portfolio."

2009 Results Summary: 
 
Evraz's consolidated revenues decreased by 52.1% to US$9,772 million in 2009 
compared with US$20,380 million in 2008. Steel segment sales accounted for the 
majority of the decrease in revenues, largely due to lower average prices and 
sales volumes of steel products. Evraz's sales volumes of steel products to 
third parties decreased from 17.0 million tonnes in 2008 to 14.3 million tonnes 
in 2009. 
 
The decrease in steel sales volumes primarily relates to a decline in demand for 
construction products in Russia with overall sales in the Russian market down by 
2.4 million tonnes. Sales volumes in Ukraine declined by 0.1 million tonnes. The 
decreases in the domestic markets were partially offset by the growth of export 
sales volumes from the Russian and Ukrainian operations, which increased by 0.8 
million tonnes in total. Sales volumes of the European and South African 
operations declined by 0.3 million tonnes and 0.1 million tonnes respectively. 
The Canadian operations, which were acquired in June 2008, sold approximately 
the same steel volumes in 2009 as in 2008 post acquisition, while sales of the 
US operations decreased by 0.6 million tonnes. These decreases directly 
reflected the general slowdown in the steel markets in 2009 and related cuts in 
production volumes.

Revenues from sales in Russia decreased as a proportion of total revenues from 
37.2% to 30.2%. 
 
In 2009, revenues from non-Russian sales declined by 46.7% to US$6,822 million 
compared to US$12,805 million in 2008 and increased as a percentage of total 
revenues to 69.8%, compared with 62.8% in 2008. The main driver of the higher 
proportion of revenues outside Russia was the re-orientation of sales from the 
Russian operations to export markets in response to weak domestic demand. 
 
The consolidated cost of revenues amounted to US$8,756 million, representing 
89.6% of consolidated revenues, in 2009 compared with US$13,463 million, 
representing 66.1% of consolidated revenues, in 2008. Gross profit fell by 85.3% 
from US$6,917 million in 2008 to US$1,016 million in 2009. The steep reduction 
in gross profit margin primarily resulted from the fall in steel and vanadium 
prices and production cuts in response to weaker demand in principal steel 
markets during 2009. An additional factor was a 62% increase in steel segment's 
depreciation charge in 2009 compared with 2008 due to a revaluation of assets. 
 
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses as a percentage of 
consolidated revenues increased year-on-year from 8.6% to 13.0%. 
 
Total loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment amounted to US$81 
million in 2009 compared with US$37 million in 2008. The increased loss in 2009 
primarily related to the revaluation of property, plant and equipment. 
 
Total impairment of assets amounted to US$163 million in 2009 compared with 
US$880 million in 2008. The impairment in 2009 and 2008 was largely attributable 
to impairment of goodwill in the amounts of US$135 million and US$756 million 
respectively, related to the acquisition of new operations in North America and 
Ukraine. Evraz also recognised an impairment of assets, other than goodwill, in 
2009 and 2008 in the amounts of US$28 million and US$124 million respectively, 
including impairment due to the closure of certain obsolete and inefficient 
Russian production facilities. 
 
The revaluation deficit on property, plant and equipment in 2009 amounted to 
US$564 million and relates to changes in the accounting policies. 
 
Profit (loss) from operations changed to a loss of US$1,047 million, or -10.7% 
of consolidated revenues, for 2009 compared to a profit of US$3,632 million, or 
17.8% of consolidated revenues, for 2008. The decrease in profit from operations 
is attributable to the decline in consolidated gross profit margin. 
 
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA decreased by 80.1% to US$1,237 million in 2009 
compared to US$6,215 million in 2008, with adjusted EBITDA margins of 12.7% and 
30.5% respectively. 
 
Share of profits (losses) of associates and joint ventures of US$(8) million in 
2009 and US$194 million in 2008 related to income (loss) attributable to Evraz's 
interest in Raspadskaya and Kazankovskaya mine (an associate of 
Yuzhkuzbassugol). 
 
In 2009, income tax expense (benefit) changed to a benefit of US$339 million 
compared with an expense of US$1,192 million, in 2008, which corresponds to 
effective tax rates of 21.2% and 39.1% respectively. 
 
The net profit (loss) attributable to equity holders of Evraz Group changed from 
a profit of US$1,797 million in 2008 to a loss of US$1,251 million in 2009.

* Including intersegment sales 
 
Steel segment revenues decreased by 49.9% to US$8,978 million in 2009 compared 
with US$17,925 million in 2008. This decline reflected negative price dynamics 
for steel products and lower sales volumes. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of construction products 
decreased due to a significant decline in the sales volumes of construction 
products at the Russian operations. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of railway products remained 
unchanged despite a decrease in the proportion of volumes. This reflects the 
fact that prices of railway products decreased less than other steel products. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of flat-rolled products 
(primarily plate) decreased due to an above average decline in sales volumes 
compared with other steel products, particularly with regard to the European 
operations. 
 
An increase in the proportion of revenues attributable to sales of tubular 
products reflects relatively stable tubular products in North America towards 
the end of 2008 and at the start of 2009, the result being a below average 
decline in the prices of tubular goods compared to other steel products. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of semi-finished products 
increased due to higher sales volumes of semis sold by the Russian and Ukrainian 
operations to export markets. 
 
Steel segment sales to the mining segment amounted to US$83 million in 2009 
compared with US$178 million in 2008. The decrease is attributable to lower sale 
prices and volumes. 
 
Revenues from sales outside Russia amounted to approximately 70% of steel 
segment revenues in 2009, compared with 61% in 2008. The increased share of 
revenues from sales outside Russia in 2009 was primarily attributable to the 
reallocation of steel volumes from the Russian market to Asian export markets. 
 
Steel segment cost of revenues totalled US$8,122 million, or 90.5% of steel 
segment revenues, in 2009 compared with US$12,662 million, or 70.6% of steel 
segment revenues, in 2008. The decrease is attributable to the decline in sales 
volumes and in the prices of raw materials together with staff optimisation 
measures and the depreciation of local currencies against the US dollar. 
 
In 2009, the steel segment profit (loss) from operations changed to a loss of 
US$840 million compared with a profit of US$2,746 million in 2008. 
 
In 2009, adjusted EBITDA in the steel segment totalled US$903 million, or 10.1% 
of steel segment revenues, compared with US$4,671 million, or 26.1% of steel 
segment revenues in 2008.

* Including intersegment sales 
 
Mining segment revenues were down by 59.9% to US$1,456 million, compared with 
US$3,634 million in 2008, primarily reflecting a decline in average prices of 
iron ore and coal. 
 
Sales volumes of iron ore products decreased by 15.7% in 2009 compared with 
2008. Excluding the effect of the resale of iron ore products from UGOK (a 
related party) in 2008, sales volumes of iron ore in 2009 decreased by just 1.1% 
compared with 2008. Sales volumes of steam coal products decreased by 8.2% in 
2009 compared with 2008, while sales volumes of coking coal increased by 3.7%. 
 
In 2009 mining segment sales to the steel segment amounted to US$1,017 million, 
or 69.8% of mining segment sales, compared with US$2,340 million, or 64.4% of 
mining segment sales, in 2008. 
 
Approximately 51% of the mining segment's third party sales in 2009 were to 
customers in Russia compared with 29% in 2008. The higher share of third party 
sales outside Russia in 2008 is largely attributable to the resale of iron ore 
from UGOK, a related party, to export markets. There were no such resales in 
2009. 
 
The mining segment cost of revenues decreased by 42.7% from US$2,387 million in 
2008 to US$1,368 million in 2009, primarily due to the decrease in raw 
materials, transportation, staff, energy and other costs. 
 
The mining segment profit (loss) from operations changed from a profit of US$971 
million in 2008 to a loss of US$214 million in 2009. 
 
Adjusted EBITDA in the mining segment decreased by 80.0% to US$279 million, or 
19.2% of mining segment revenues in 2009, compared with US$1,395 million, or 
38.4% of mining segment revenues, in 2008.

maturity of more than three months, totalled approximately US$1,997 million as 
of 31 December 2009 compared with approximately US$2,634 million as of 31 
December 2008. (Please refer to Attachment 2 for calculation of liquidity) 
 
As of 31 December 2009, Evraz had unutilised borrowing facilities of US$1,300 
million, including US$819 million of committed facilities and US$481 million of 
uncommitted facilities. 
 
Net debt decreased to US$7,226 million as of 31 December 2009 compared with 
US$9,031 million as of 31 December 2008. (Please refer to Attachment 3 for 
calculation of net debt) 
 
As of 31 December 2009, total assets amounted to US$23,424 million compared with 
US$19,451 million as of 31 December 2008. This primarily reflected the surplus 
arising from the revaluation of certain of the Group's assets as of 1 January 
2009. 
 
Evraz Group S.A. shareholders' equity, including reserves and accumulated 
profits, increased to US$10,284 million as of 31 December 2009 compared with 
US$4,672 million as of 31 December 2008, primarily due to the surplus arising 
from the revaluation of certain of the Group's assets as of 1 January 2009.

Adjusted EBITDA 
 
Adjusted EBITDA represents profit from operations adjusted for depreciation, 
depletion and amortisation, impairment of assets and loss (gain) on disposal of 
property, plant and equipment, foreign exchange gains/(losses).  Evraz presents 
an Adjusted EBITDA because it considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an important 
supplemental measure of its operating performance and believes Adjusted EBITDA 
is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested 
parties in the evaluation of companies in the same industry. Adjusted EBITDA is 
not a measure of financial performance under IFRS and it should not be 
considered as an alternative to net profit as a measure of operating performance 
or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.  Evraz's 
calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by 
other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. Adjusted EBITDA has 
limitations as an analytical tool and potential investors should not consider it 
in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our operating results as 
reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations include: 
 
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of financing or financing costs on 
Evraz's operating performance, which can be significant and could further 
increase if Evraz were to incur more debt. 
 
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of income taxes on Evraz's operating 
performance. 
 
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of depreciation and amortisation on 
Evraz's operating performance. The assets of Evraz's businesses which are being 
depreciated and/or amortised will have to be replaced in the future and such 
depreciation and amortisation expense may approximate the cost to replace these 
assets in the future. Adjusted EBITDA, due to the exclusion of this expense, 
does not reflect Evraz's future cash requirements for these replacements. 
Adjusted EBITDA also does not reflect the impact of a loss on disposal of 
property, plant and equipment. 
 
 
 
Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to profit (loss) from operations is as 
follows:

Net Debt 
 
Net Debt represents long-term loans, net of current portion, plus short-term 
loans and current portion of long-term loans less cash and cash equivalents 
(excluding restricted deposits).  Net Debt is not a balance sheet measure under 
IFRS and it should not be considered as an alternative to other measures of 
financial position.  Evraz's calculation of Net Debt may be different from the 
calculation used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. 
 
Net Debt has been calculated as follows:
