Alexander Frolov, Chief Executive of Evraz Group, commented: 
 
"During the first half of 2010 we have seen the continuation of a measured 
recovery in the global economy which, in turn, has led to an increase in steel 
demand across all our key markets. This has allowed us to fully utilise our 
steelmaking capacities in Russia and significantly increase the utilisation 
rates of our international operations. 
 
"Prices for steel products rose steadily throughout the second half of 2009 and 
the first four months of 2010, in line with higher raw material prices, followed 
by a correction in May-July of 2010. Group EBITDA margins advanced benefiting in 
part from the significant scale of our vertical integration. 
 
"Demand in Russia was driven by an increase in private sector construction 
activity as well as Russian government-financed infrastructure projects, 
including infrastructure development in preparation for the APEC Summit in the 
Far East and the Sochi Olympic Games. 
 
"Export demand is driven by the ongoing growth of developing economies, 
particularly in Asia, which represents one of our key markets. Our North 
American operations registered notable volume increases driven by strong demand 
for pipes to facilitate shale gas exploration projects and construction plate in 
relation to infrastructure investment on behalf of local governments. 
 
"Overall our key strategic priorities remain unchanged: cost leadership, an 
appropriate level of vertical integration into raw materials, geographic 
diversification, a manufacturing focus on infrastructure products and the 
extraction of further synergies from our international asset base. 
 
"During the remainder of 2010 our focus will be on driving efficiency gains and 
operational improvements. We are embarking on a major reconstruction of our 
Russian rail mills which will herald the production of higher margin products, 
including the manufacture of 100-metre high-speed rails. The introduction of a 
pulverised coal injection project, scheduled for completion in 2012, will 
increase our energy efficiency, eliminate the need for natural gas and reduce 
our coking coal consumption by almost 20%." 
 
 
Giacomo Baizini, Evraz Group's Chief Financial Officer, commented: 
 
"Our financial performance, benefiting from the market recovery, showed a 
significant improvement during the first half of 2010. This was reflected in a 
147% increase in EBITDA compared to the first half of 2009 and was in line with 
our guidance despite the market turbulence experienced in May and June. 
 
"Our net loss of US$270 million resulted from two factors impacting our net 
result: (a) the adoption last year of the revaluation model of accounting for 
property, plant and equipment (the net effect on the net profit in 1H 2010 was 
US$416 million); and (b) a number of one-off transactions totalling US$138 
million. In the absence of these factors, our net profit for the first half of 
2010 would have amounted to US$284 million. The increased depreciation expense 
under the revaluation model of accounting will have a negative effect on our net 
result in the future, thereby distorting comparison with peers that employ the 
cost method of property, plant and equipment valuation. Against this background 
we believe that EBITDA will provide a more accurate measure of performance. 
 
"The refinancing of short-term debt through longer-term maturities remains our 
priority in terms of financial management. A successful US$500 million 
equivalent Rouble bond placement in March 2010 and the refinancing of a US$1 
billion short-term debt to VEB through a US$950 million 5-year loan from 
Gazprombank reflected the confidence of investors and lenders alike in the 
Company's prospects. Our cost of capital continued to decline, reflecting the 
improvement in financial and operating results together with more favourable 
market conditions. For example, since October 2009 bond yields have fallen from 
almost 10% to nearer 7%." 
 
 
Outlook 
 
Commenting on the outlook for the remainder of 2010 and beyond Mr. Frolov added: 
 
"The wider global economy and, in turn, the steel industry, continue to face 
challenges and despite positive price and volume dynamics, the pattern and 
resilience of the global economic recovery remain questionable. 
 
"We strongly believe, however, that the quality of Evraz Group's asset base, the 
competitive advantages derived from vertical integration and our geographic 
breadth leaves the Company, under the stewardship of a highly experienced 
management team, well positioned to capitalise on the advent of a sustained 
economic upturn." 
 
Mr. Baizini stated: 
 
"Although the general demand trend in our key markets is positive, some 
volatility in steel prices and volumes in May-July 2010 have negatively affected 
our performance in the third quarter. 
 
"We expect our 3Q 2010 EBITDA to be in the range of US$480-550 million. Assuming 
a continuation of the current trends, Evraz is on course to repeat its 1H 2010 
performance in 2H 2010. 
 
"We will continue to refinance our short-term maturities through longer-term 
instruments. Capital markets are readily available and yields are close to their 
historic lows."

1H 2010 Results Summary: 
 
Evraz's consolidated revenues for the first six months of 2010 increased by 
37.5% to US$6,379 million compared with US$4,639 million for the first six 
months of 2009. Steel segment sales accounted for the majority of the increase 
in revenues, reflecting the growth in sales volumes and average prices of steel 
products. Evraz's external sales volumes of steel products rose from 6.8 million 
tonnes in the six months ended 30 June 2009 to 7.7 million tonnes in the six 
months ended 30 June 2010. 
 
The increase in steel sales volumes primarily reflects the growth in demand for 
construction products in Russia with overall sales on the Russian market 
advancing by 0.6 million tonnes compared with 1H 2009. Sales volumes in Ukraine 
remained flat. Export sales volumes from the Russian and Ukrainian operations 
showed a total decrease of 0.2 million tonnes. Sales volumes of the European and 
North American operations increased by 0.2 million and 0.3 million tonnes 
respectively, while steel sales volumes of the South African operations showed 
no change.

Revenues from sales in Russia increased as a proportion of total revenues from 
28.1% to 33.2%, driven by the growing demand for construction products on the 
Russian market after a decline in 2009. 
 
In 1H 2010, revenues from non-Russian sales rose by 27.9% to US$4,264 million 
compared with US$3,335 million in 1H 2009 but decreased as a percentage of total 
revenues to 66.8%, compared with 71.9% in 1H 2009. 
 
In the first six months of 2010, the consolidated cost of revenues improved to 
83.0% of consolidated revenues, or US$5,296 million compared with 92.6% of 
consolidated revenues, or US$4,297 million in the first six months of 2009. 
 
Gross profit rose by 216.7% from US$342 million in 1H 2009 to US$1,083 million 
in 1H 2010. This increase in gross profit primarily resulted from a recovery in 
steel, mining and vanadium prices following the weak demand that characterised 
the principal steel markets in 2009. 
 
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses as a percentage of 
consolidated revenues decreased year-on-year from 12.8% to 11.8%. 
 
The total revaluation deficit on property, plant and equipment amounted to 
US$138 million and US$564 million in the six months ended 30 June 2010 and 2009 
respectively and related to the application of the revaluation model to the 
valuation of certain classes of property, plant and equipment, which resulted in 
additional charges recognised in the statement of operations. 
 
Total loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment in the first six 
months of 2010 amounted to US$24 million compared with US$25 million in the 
first six months of 2009. 
 
Total impairment of assets amounted to US$38 million in the six months ended 30 
June 2010 compared with US$211 million in the same period of 2009. Impairment 
was partly attributable to the impairment of goodwill in the amount of US$16 
million in the six months ended 30 June 2010 (related to Stratcor) and of US$129 
million in the six months ended 30 June 2009 (related to operations in North 
America and Ukraine). Evraz also recognised an impairment of assets, other than 
goodwill, in the amount of US$22 million and US$82 million in the six months 
ended 30 June 2010 and 30 June 2009 respectively, including impairment of 
property, plant and equipment of the Group's subsidiaries. 
 
Profit (loss) from operations improved from a loss of US$1,046 million, or 
-22.5% of consolidated revenues, for 1H 2009, to a profit of US$167 million, or 
2.6% of consolidated revenues, for 1H 2010. The change in profit (loss) from 
operations is attributable to the growth in consolidated gross profit margin in 
the first six months of 2010. 
 
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA increased by 146.6% to US$1,154 million in the 
first half of 2010 compared to US$468 million in the first half of 2009, with 
adjusted EBITDA margins of 18.1% and 10.1% respectively. 
 
Interest expense rose 9.9% to US$368 million in the six months to 30 June 2010 
compared with US$335 million in the six months to 30 June 2009 due to an 
increased interest rate on Group debt that reflected lengthening of average debt 
duration. 
 
Loss on disposal of assets held for sale in the six months ended 30 June 2010 
amounted to US$52 million, of which US$50 million relate to the disposal of the 
Tomusinskaya 5-6 coal mine. 
 
In 1H 2010, income tax expense amounted to US$6 million compared with an income 
tax benefit of US$261 million, in 1H 2009. Evraz's effective tax rate, defined 
as income tax expense (benefit) as a percentage of profit (loss) before tax, 
decreased from an effective tax benefit of 20.7% in the six months of 2009 to a 
tax charge of 2.3% in the first six months of 2010. 
 
The net loss attributable to equity holders of Evraz Group in the six months 
ended 30 June 2010 was US$267 million compared with a loss of US$987 million in 
the six months ended 30 June 2009.

* Including intersegment sales 
 
Steel segment revenues increased by 35.1% to US$5,796 million in the first six 
months of 2010 compared with US$4,291 million in the first six months of 2009, a 
reflection of positive price dynamics for steel products and higher sales 
volumes. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of construction products 
increased as a result of a significant growth in the sales volumes and prices of 
construction products in Russia. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of railway products decreased 
despite an increase in the proportion of volumes, explained by the fact that 
prices of railway products, particularly rails in Russia, are relatively more 
stable and less affected by steel market price fluctuations. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of flat-rolled products 
(primarily plates) increased in response to a significant advance in sales 
volumes across the Group's North American, European and South African 
operations. 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of tubular products decreased 
primarily due to lower sales volumes and prices of large diameter pipes in North 
America despite a 12% growth in total sales volumes of tubular products (in 
particular of casing and tubing). 
 
The proportion of revenues attributable to sales of semi-finished products 
decreased largely due to a re-allocation of sales volumes by the Russian 
operations from export markets to the domestic construction sector. 
 
Steel segment sales to the mining segment amounted to US$57 million in the first 
half of 2010 compared with US$37 million a year earlier. The increase is 
attributable to higher sales prices and volumes. 
 
Revenues from sales in Russia amounted to approximately 33% of steel segment 
revenues in the first six months of 2010, compared with 27% in the first six 
months of 2009. The increased share of revenues from sales in Russia resulted 
from the reallocation of steel volumes from Asian export markets to the Russian 
market. 
 
Steel segment cost of revenues improved to 87.6% of steel segment revenues, in 
the first six months of 2010, or US$5,075 million, compared with 92.1% of steel 
segment revenues, or US$3,953 million, in the first six months of 2009. The 
increase in cost of revenue in monetary terms is attributable to a rise of 84.9% 
in raw material costs due to significant growth in the prices of all key raw 
materials (particularly coking coal and scrap in Russia); increases of 
approximately 20% in production volumes of pig iron and crude steel;  additional 
transportation costs (+38.6%) reflecting a higher average railway tariff in 
Russia and greater export sales volumes of steel products from Russia; increased 
energy costs (+37.8%) due to expanded production; and enhanced staff costs 
(+13%). At the same time, costs of semi-finished products decreased by 39.4% due 
to higher volumes of internally-produced slabs used for production of rolled 
products within the Group (up by approximately 0.4 million tonnes) and reduced 
market purchases of semi-finished products. 
 
In 1H 2010, the steel segment recorded an operating profit of US$1 million, 
compared with a loss of US$882 million (-20.6% of steel segment revenues) in the 
same period of 2009. The change in the operating profit margin of the steel 
segment is attributable to the increase in gross profit margin and the decreased 
revaluation deficit on property, plant and equipment in the six months ended 30 
June 2010.

* Including intersegment sales 
 
Mining segment revenues rose 71.8% to US$1,120 million in 1H 2010, compared with 
US$652 million in 1H 2009, primarily reflecting significant increases in the 
market prices of iron ore and coal during the first six months of 2010. 
 
Sales volumes of iron ore products decreased by 4.9% in 1H 2010 compared with 1H 
2009. Sales volumes of steam coal products and coking coal products decreased by 
30.3% and 9.8% respectively in the six months ended 30 June 2010 compared with 
the six months ended 30 June 2009. 
 
In the first six months of 2010 mining segment sales to the steel segment 
amounted to US$812 million, or 72.5% of mining segment sales, compared with 
US$456 million, or 70.0% of mining segment sales, in the first six months of 
2009. 
 
In 1H 2010, Evraz's iron ore requirements were self-covered by approximately 91% 
compared with 98% in 1H 2009. Self-coverage in coking coal (including 40% share 
of Raspadskaya production) was 84% in 1H 2010 and 117% in 1H 2009. Without the 
Raspadskaya share it was 50% and 87% respectively. 
 
Approximately 56% of the mining segment's third party sales in 1H 2010 were to 
customers in Russia compared with 47% in 1H 2009. The decrease in the share of 
third party sales outside Russia is largely attributable to the decline in 
export sales of mining products from Yuzhkuzbassugol and KGOK to Europe.

* Including intersegment sales 
 
Vanadium segment revenues advanced by 110.1% to US$290 million in the first six 
months of 2010, compared with US$138 million in the first six months of 2009, 
reflecting increased sales volumes and prices of vanadium products. Sales 
volumes of the vanadium segment increased from 7.4 thousand tonnes of pure 
vanadium in the six months ended 30 June 2009 to 10.9 thousand tonnes of pure 
vanadium in the six months ended 30 June 2010. Following the acquisition of 
Vanady-Tula in November 2009, revenues from sales of vanadium slag account for 
less than 10% of vanadium segment revenues (some of the reported slag sold to 
third parties is repurchased in the form of oxides for further processing within 
the Group and is subsequently sold as finished products). 
 
Vanadium segment cost of revenues improved to 69.7% of vanadium segment 
revenues, or US$202 million, in the first six months of 2010 from 115.2% of 
vanadium segment revenues, or US$159 million, in the first six months of 2009. 
The increase in monetary terms was primarily attributable to higher sales 
volumes and higher prices of raw materials.

Consolidated Group Financial Position 
 
Cash flow 
 
Cash flow from operating activities decreased from US$1,123 million in the first 
six months of 2009 to US$744 million in the first six months of 2010. This 
decrease was caused by changes in working capital including a release of US$738 
million in the first six months of 2009 compared with an increase of US$144 
million in the first six months of 2010. The increase in working capital in the 
first six months of 2010 was largely driven by the increase in the value of 
inventories. Cash provided by operating activities before working capital 
adjustments increased from US$385 million in the six months ended 30 June 2009 
to US$888 million in the six months ended 30 June 2010. 
 
Net cash used in investing activities totalled US$385 million in 1H 2010 
compared with net cash received from investing activities of US$380 million in 
1H 2009. Substantially, all the cash used in investing activities related to 
purchases of property, plant and equipment. 
 
In 1H 2010, Evraz's capital expenditure totalled US$397 million, including 
US$251 million in respect of its steel segment and US$136 million in respect of 
its mining segment. 
 
 
Balance sheet 
As of 30 June 2010 total debt amounted to US$7,873 million, largely unchanged 
from US$7,923 million as of 31 December 2009. Cash and cash equivalents together 
with short-term bank deposits amounted to US$675 million, against US$697 million 
as of 31 December 2009. Liquidity, defined as cash and cash equivalents, amounts 
available under credit facilities and short-term bank deposits with original 
maturity of more than three months, totalled approximately US$1,598 million as 
of 30 June 2010 compared with approximately US$1,997 million as of 31 December 
2009. (Refer to Attachment 3 for calculation of liquidity) 
 
As of 30 June 2010, Evraz had unutilised borrowing facilities of US$923 million, 
including US$430 million of committed facilities and US$493 million of 
uncommitted facilities. Committed facilities consisted of credit facilities 
available for Russian and North American operations in the amounts of US$334 
million and US$95 million respectively. Uncommitted facilities consisted of 
revolving credit lines of US$323 million with international banks for export 
trade financing at East Metals S.A. and credit facilities available for 
European, South African and North American operations. 
 
Evraz's current ratio, defined as current assets divided by current liabilities, 
increased from 0.73 as of 30 June 2009 to 1.26 as of 30 June 2010. The increase 
in the current ratio primarily resulted from decreases in short-term loans and 
the current portion of long-term loans due to repayments and refinancing 
activities on the part of management and an increase in working capital. 
 
Net debt decreased to US$7,198 million as of 30 June 2010 compared with US$7,226 
million as of 31 December 2009. (Refer to Attachment 4 for calculation of net 
debt)

Adjusted EBITDA 
 
Adjusted EBITDA represents profit from operations adjusted for depreciation, 
depletion and amortisation, impairment of assets, loss/(gain) on disposal of 
property, plant and equipment, foreign exchange losses/(gains), deficit on 
revaluation of property, plant and equipment.  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 profit (loss) from operations to adjusted EBITDA 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:
