NOTICE TO THE MARKET

 

 

 

Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional ("CSN" or the "Company") informs its shareholders and the market in general that yesterday it carried out a scheduled maintenance shutdown on its Blast Furnace 2 (BF#2) located at the Usina Presidente Vargas (UPV) in Volta Redonda-RJ. As announced in the CSN Day presentation published on December 11, 2024 in the category Notice to the Market, this mini-overhaul of BF#2 aims to modernize and extend the useful life of the asset, extending its operation by 8 years, without requiring additional costs and/or investments to the official projections already anticipated by the Company for this year. CSN also clarifies that the mini-overhaul is part of its maintenance program and has been duly planned so as not to affect the results of the Steel segment and its customers.

The Company will keep its shareholders and the market in general duly informed if there are any updates in this case.
