    The picture is steel product metallograph Disclaimer: The information contained in this English version of 2012 Annual Report is provided as a reference only with the understanding that Baoshan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. makes no warranties, either expressed or implied, concerning the accuracy of the translation. For full information, please refer to Baosteel’s Chinese version of 2012 Annual Report. To Our Investors 2012 was an extremely difficult year for the steel industry. Prices for fuel and raw materials fluctuated at high levels, intensity of the homogeneity competition was ever growing, the steel market remained gloomy and steel enterprises saw continued business deterioration. Confronted with the severe industrial environment, Baosteel stepped up operation to solidify its advantages in differentiated product competitiveness, and enforced strict cost control to pursue production and sales balance under economic operation. The Company made a good performance in production and sales in 2012. It sold 22.995 million tons of steel, including 1.955 million tons and 2.34 million tons of exclusive products and exported products respectively, reporting a 6.6% gross sales profit for major steel products. The Company maintained a comparatively stable level of profitability, and kept its best performance among domestic peers. While carrying out the daily business carefully, the Company’s managerial staff were actively seeking ways to enhance its long-term competitiveness and investment value. In response to the shareholders’ requests and to boost the market confidence, in August 2012, the Company’s BOD announced the decision to repurchase the Company stock at a price not more than 5 RMB/share, with the total spending within RMB 5 billion.
