There are no material differences between IFRS and management view in total revenues.


The differences between operating income under IFRS and the management views are mainly related to the cost of goods sold, reflecting the effect of raw materials prices increases on the valuation of the replacement cost considered for management view compared to IFRS cost calculated at historical cost mainly on FIFO basis, and other minor timing differences.


The main differences in net income under the IFRS and management views arise from the impact of functional currencies on financial result, deferred income taxes as well as the equity in earnings of non-consolidated companies.


In 2024, following the integration of coating activities into its Tubes segment, the Company represented year-to-date segment information amounts accordingly.
