ArcelorMittal Annual Report 2010 Financial highlights 1 Message from the Chairman and CEO Dear Shareholders, Writing to you this time last year, I said that I was more optimistic about 2010 than I had been about 2009. At the same time I said that, while we were through the worst, we should not mislead ourselves that there would be a swift return to buoyant levels of growth. Rather, I was expecting a slow and progressive recovery and that for the developed world in particular, it would be some time before we saw a return to pre-crisis levels of demand. Twelve months on, this is the scenario that has essentially played out. 2 Message from the Chairman and CEO ArcelorMittal Annual Report 2010 Before I talk about that in more detail, Turning back to operating performance, Total global crude steel production reached I want to update you on Health and Safety. for ArcelorMittal 2010 was certainly a new record of 1,414 million tonnes Ever since the creation of ArcelorMittal we a welcome improvement over 2009.
