**Commenting, Aditya Mittal, ArcelorMittal Chief Executive Officer, said:**

"Despite the challenges that emerged as the year unfolded, our full year results demonstrate the benefits of our strengthened asset portfolio and the improvements we have made to our cost base in recent periods. This, alongside the mitigatory actions we took in the second half of the year to adapt production levels and optimize energy consumption, has added resilience to our business.

Our delivery of consistently positive free cash flow and balance sheet strength has allowed us to grow and develop the business, capturing growth opportunities in faster growing markets while also making good progress in our ambition to be a leader in low-carbon steel production. The acquisition of Texas HBI helps us secure high-quality metallics for low-carbon steelmaking. We celebrated the commissioning of the European steel industry's first carbon capture and re-use project in Belgium. Our two low-carbon customer products, XCarb® green steel certificates and XCarb® recycled and renewably produced, continue to gain momentum with customers; and the XCarb® Innovation Fund made a series of investments in compelling new low-carbon technologies.

As we look ahead, evidence suggests that the customer destock we saw in the second half of 2022 has peaked, hence providing support to apparent steel consumption and steel spreads. Although geopolitical uncertainty remains high, we remain confident in the strength and resilience of ArcelorMittal, and in our ability to successfully execute our strategy of growth, decarbonization and sustainable returns through all aspects of the cycle."

**Sustainable development and safety performance**

**Health and safety - Own personnel and contractors lost time injury frequency rate**<sup>3,12</sup>

Protecting the health and wellbeing of employees is the Company's overarching priority, with a particular focus on becoming a fatality free and severe injury free company.

Health and safety performance based on own personnel and contractors lost time injury frequency ("LTIF") rate was 0.86x in the fourth quarter of 2022 ("4Q 2022") as compared to 0.54x in the third quarter of 2022 ("3Q 2022) and 0.74x in the fourth quarter of 2021<sup>3</sup> ("4Q 2021"). Health and safety performance in the twelve months of 2022 ("12M 2022" or "FY 2022") was 0.70x as compared to 0.79x in the twelve months of 2021 ("12M 2021" or "FY 2021").

**Sustainable development highlights – leading the decarbonization of the steel industry<sup>10</sup>:**

• On January 27, 2023, ArcelorMittal announced an investment
of $36 million in Boston Metal. The transaction is the Company's largest single initial investment to date through its XCarb®
Innovation Fund. The fund, launched in March 2021, targets investing in the best and brightest technologies that hold the potential to
play a meaningful role in the decarbonization of the steel industry, a process ArcelorMittal intends to lead.

• On December 29, 2022, ArcelorMittal announced that it had
signed an agreement to acquire Polish scrap metal recycling business Zaklad Przerobu Złomu ("Złomex"). Złomex
operates scrap yards in Krakow and Warsaw which last year processed and shipped almost 400,000 tonnes of ferrous scrap metal. Złomex
supplies a range of steel mills and foundries with well-established relationships and has also been a long-standing supplier to ArcelorMittal's
steel plants in Dąbrowa Górnicza and Warsaw. This follows ArcelorMittal's announcement on December 6, 2022, that it
has acquired Riwald Recycling ('Riwald'), a state-of-the-art ferrous scrap metal recycling business based in the Netherlands.
Riwald processed over 330,000 tonnes of ferrous scrap metal in 2021. ArcelorMittal has acquired four scrap metal businesses during 2022,
as the Company continually seeks to enhance its ability to source scrap steel, a key raw material which supports the Company's ability
to reduce its carbon emissions and to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

• On December 8, 2022, ArcelorMittal successfully inaugurated
its first carbon capture and utilization ('CCU') project in Ghent (Belgium). The €200 million 'Steelanol'
project is a first of its kind for the European steel industry. Utilizing cutting edge carbon recycling technology developed by our project
partner LanzaTech, the CCU plant uses biocatalysts to transform carbon-rich waste gases from the steelmaking process into advanced bioethanol.
The advanced bioethanol can then be used as a building block to produce a variety of chemical products including transport fuels, paints,
clothing and even cosmetic perfume, hence helping to support the decarbonization efforts of the chemical sector. Once production reaches
full capacity the Steelanol plant will produce 80 million litres of advanced ethanol, almost half of the total current advanced ethanol
demand for fuel mixing in Belgium. Carbalyst smart carbon technologies (Ghent) when combined with 2 Torero reactors is expected to achieve
0.3Mt CO2 saving.

• The Company improved its gender diversity in 2022 with 16%
of women in management (vs. 14% in 2021) and remains on track to reach the target of 25% by 2030.

**Analysis of results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 versus results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021**

Total steel shipments for 12M 2022 were 55.9 million metric tonnes (Mt), a decrease of -11.2% as compared to 62.9Mt in 12M 2021. Steel shipments on a scope adjusted basis (i.e. excluding the shipments of ArcelorMittal Italia, deconsolidated as from April 14, 2021) and excluding the impact of Ukraine, decreased by -4.5%.

Sales for 12M 2022 increased by +4.3% to $79.8 billion as compared with $76.6 billion for 12M 2021, primarily due to higher average steel selling prices (+16.6%), offset in part by lower steel shipments.

Depreciation was higher at $2.6 billion for 12M 2022 as compared to $2.5 billion in 12M 2021. The Company expects 12M 2023 depreciation at $2.6 billion.

Impairment charges for 12M 2022 of $1.0 billion relate to ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih. In 4Q 2022, the Company recognized a $1,026 million impairment charge related to property, plant and equipment with respect to ArcelorMittal Kriviy Rih (Ukraine) in the ACIS segment, where the ongoing conflict with Russia resulted in low levels of production, sales and income and created significant uncertainty about the timing and ability of operations to return to a normal level of activity. Recent attacks against Ukrainian power infrastructures caused additional operational issues for ArcelorMittal Kriviy Rih and the increasing geopolitical tensions resulted in a substantial increase in the discount rate applied by the Company in its value in use calculation. Impairment gain for 12M 2021 amounted to $218 million following improved cash flow projections in the context of decarbonization plans in Sestao (Spain) (partially reversing the impairment recognized in 2015).

Exceptional items for 12M 2022 of $0.3 billion included $0.5 billion of non-cash inventory related provisions (recognized in 3Q 2022) to reflect the net realizable value of inventory under IFRS with declining market prices in Europe, partially offset by a $0.1 billion purchase gain on the acquisition of the Hot Briquetted Iron ('HBI') plant in Texas and a $0.1 billion gain following the settlement of a claim by ArcelorMittal for a breach of a supply contract. Exceptional items for 12M 2021 of $123 million related to expected costs for the decommissioning of the dam at the Serra Azul mine in Brazil.

Operating income for 12M 2022 of $10.3 billion was lower as compared to 12M 2021 of $17.0 billion primarily driven by negative price-cost effect, elevated energy costs, lower steel shipments, negative translation effect and combined impairment costs and exceptional items totaling $1.3 billion as discussed above.

Income from associates, joint ventures and other investments for 12M 2022 was $1.3 billion as compared to $2.2 billion for 12M 2021 primarily due to the lower contributions from AMNS India and AMNS Calvert. 12M 2022 includes the annual dividend from Erdemir of $117 million (vs. $89 million received in 12M 2021).

Net interest expense in 12M 2022 of $213 million was lower as compared to $278 million in 12M 2021 due to higher interest income. The Company expects interest costs to increase to $0.4 billion in 12M 2023 due to higher interest rates.

Foreign exchange and other net financing losses were $121 million for 12M 2022 as compared to losses of $877 million for 12M 2021. Foreign exchange gain for 12M 2022 was $191 million as compared to a loss of $155 million in 12M 2021. 12M 2021 included charges of $191 million related to repurchases of bonds and MCNs, as well as a $163 million loss (primarily consisting of interest and indexation charges) relating to a legal claim at ArcelorMittal Brasil from the Votorantim acquisition.

ArcelorMittal recorded an income tax expense of $1,717 million for 12M 2022 (including $363 million deferred tax benefit) as compared to $2,460 million for 12M 2021 (including $493 million deferred tax benefit) reflecting overall lower taxable profits.

ArcelorMittal's net income for 12M 2022 was $9.3 billion as compared to $15.0 billion for 12M 2021. Adjusted net income<sup>6</sup> for 12M 2022 excluding impairments charges and exceptional items, was $10.6 billion as compared to $14.9 billion for 12M 2021.

ArcelorMittal's basic earnings per common share for 12M 2022 was $10.21 basic earnings per common share, as compared to $13.53 basic earnings per common share for 12M 2021. Adjusted basic earnings per common share (excluding impairment charges and exceptional items)<sup>6</sup> for 12M 2022 was $11.65/sh as compared to $13.45/sh for 12M 2021.

**Analysis of results for 4Q 2022 versus 3Q 2022 and 4Q 2021**

Total steel shipments in 4Q 2022 were 12.6Mt, -6.9% lower as compared with 13.6Mt in 3Q 2022. Reflecting the significantly lower apparent demand due to destocking, 4Q 2022 steel shipments were -19.9% lower as compared with 15.8Mt in 4Q 2021 (-14.7% excluding the impact of Ukraine).

Sales in 4Q 2022 were $16.9 billion as compared to $19.0 billion for 3Q 2022 and $20.8 billion for 4Q 2021. As compared to 3Q 2022, the -11.0% decrease in sales was primarily due to lower average steel selling prices (-6.8%) and lower steel shipment volumes. Sales in 4Q 2022 were -18.8% lower as compared to 4Q 2021 primarily due to lower average steel selling prices (-4.3%) and lower steel shipments (-19.9%).

Depreciation for 4Q 2022 was $636 million as compared to $628 million for 3Q 2022 and $712 million in 4Q 2021.

Impairment charges for 4Q 2022 of $1.0 billion relate to ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih as discussed above.

Exceptional items for 4Q 2022 of $0.1 billion relates to a gain following the settlement of a claim by ArcelorMittal for a breach of a supply contract. Exceptional items for 3Q 2022 of $0.4 billion included $0.5 billion of non-cash inventory related provisions to reflect the net realizable value of inventory under IFRS with declining market prices in Europe, partially offset by a $0.1 billion purchase gain on the acquisition of a Hot Briquetted Iron ('HBI') plant in Texas. Exceptional items for 4Q 2021 were nil.

Operating loss for 4Q 2022 of $0.3 billion reflected the impairment charges as discussed above, negative price-cost and lower volumes, and compares to an operating income of $1.7 billion in 3Q 2022 and $4.6 billion for 4Q 2021.

Income from associates, joint ventures and other investments for 4Q 2022 was $121 million as compared to $59 million for 3Q 2022 and $383 million in 4Q 2021. 4Q 2022 results improved as compared to 3Q 2022 with improved contributions from Chinese investees.

Net interest expense in 4Q 2022 was higher at $72 million as compared to $37 million in 3Q 2022 and higher than $49 million in 4Q 2021, due to the issuance, at the end of 3Q 2022 and in 4Q 2022 of new notes bearing higher interest rates.

Foreign exchange and other net financing gain in 4Q 2022 was $449 million as compared to a loss of $247 million in 3Q 2022 and $111 million in 4Q 2021. 4Q 2022 includes foreign exchange gain of $497 million (following the -9.4% depreciation of the US dollar vs. the euro at the period end rates) as compared to a loss of $108 million in 3Q 2022 and a loss of $30 million in 4Q 2021.

Due to a lower taxable profit, ArcelorMittal recorded an income tax benefit of $35 million (including deferred tax benefit of $126 million) in 4Q 2022, as compared to an income tax expense of $371 million (including deferred tax benefit of $23 million) in 3Q 2022. Income tax expense in 4Q 2021 was $632 million (including deferred tax benefit of $46 million).

ArcelorMittal recorded a net income in 4Q 2022 of $261 million as compared to $993 million in 3Q 2022 and $4,045 million for 4Q 2021. Adjusted net income<sup>6</sup> in 4Q 2022 was $1,189 million as compared to $1,374 million in 3Q 2022 and $3,827 million for 4Q 2021.

ArcelorMittal's basic earnings per common share for 4Q 2022 was lower at $0.30 as compared to $1.11 in 3Q 2022 and $3.93 in 4Q 2021. Adjusted basic earnings per common share<sup>6</sup> for 4Q 2022 was lower at $1.37 as compared to $1.54 in 3Q 2022 and $3.72 in 4Q 2021.

Europe segment crude steel production declined by -13.0% to 7.0Mt in 4Q 2022 as compared to 8.0Mt in 3Q 2022. Production was -19.3% lower as compared to 8.6Mt in 4Q 2021 given curtailed production in light of weaker apparent demand driven by destocking. As apparent demand conditions are now showing signs of improvement, the Company is gradually restarting capacity.

Steel shipments declined by -3.9% to 6.8Mt in 4Q 2022 as compared to 7.1Mt in 3Q 2022 due to lower apparent demand severely impacted by destocking. Shipments declined by -18.3% as compared to 8.3Mt in 4Q 2021 primarily due to weaker apparent demand.

Exceptional items for 3Q 2022 of $473 million related to non-cash inventory provisions to reflect the net realizable value of inventory under IFRS with declining market prices.

Sales in 4Q 2022 decreased by -5.8% to $10.1 billion, as compared to $10.7 billion in 3Q 2022, due to a -3.9% reduction in steel shipments and -5.7% lower average selling prices. Sales declined by -16.6% as compared to 4Q 2021 primarily due to lower steel shipments (-18.3%) and lower average steel selling prices (-2.3%).

Operating loss in 4Q 2022 was $10 million as compared to an operating income of $158 million in 3Q 2022 and $1,886 million in 4Q 2021.

EBITDA in 4Q 2022 of $306 million declined as compared to $931 million in 3Q 2022, due to the impacts of a negative price-cost effect and reduced steel shipments on account of lower demand, offset in part by easing of energy costs. EBITDA in 4Q 2022 decreased significantly as compared to $2,021 million in 4Q 2021 due to a negative price cost effect, lower shipments and negative translation effect.

ACIS segment crude steel production in 4Q 2022 was -24.3% lower at 1.4Mt as compared to 1.8Mt in 3Q 2022 mainly due to operational issues and power availability in Kazakhstan, and planned maintenance shutdowns in South Africa. Crude steel production in 4Q 2022 was -48.3% below 2.7Mt in 4Q 2021 primarily due to lower steel production in Ukraine due to the ongoing war.

Steel shipments in 4Q 2022 decreased by -15.6% to 1.4Mt as compared to 1.7Mt in 3Q 2022 primarily due to weaker Kazakhstan shipments driven by the lower production as discussed above. Shipments were -45.6% lower as compared to 2.6Mt in 4Q 2021, primarily due to lower production in Ukraine.

Sales in 4Q 2022 decreased by -21.7% to $1.2 billion as compared to $1.6 billion in 3Q 2022, primarily due to lower steel shipments as above and -6.9% lower average steel selling prices.

Impairment costs for 4Q 2022 of $1.0 billion relate to the ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih's assets<sup>4</sup>.

Operating loss in 4Q 2022 of $1,198 million compares to an operating loss of $55 million in 3Q 2022 and operating income of $439 million in 4Q 2021. Performance was negatively impacted by the impairment as discussed above.

EBITDA loss of $107 million in 4Q 2022 as compared to EBITDA of $38 million in 3Q 2022, was primarily due to lower shipments and lower selling prices.

Note: Mining segment comprises iron ore operations of ArcelorMittal Mines Canada and ArcelorMittal Liberia.

Iron ore production increased in 4Q 2022 by +7.8% to 7.5Mt as compared to 6.9Mt in 3Q 2022 and was higher than 7.2Mt in 4Q 2021. Higher iron ore production at AMMC<sup>13</sup> and Liberia in 4Q 2022 as compared to 3Q 2022 was due to the recovery following the adverse impact of exceptionally heavy rains in Canada in 3Q 2022.

Despite higher production, iron ore shipments were stable at 6.9Mt in 4Q 2022 as compared to 3Q 2022 due to severe storms in Canada during December 2022 impacting port operations. 4Q 2022 iron ore shipments of 6.9Mt were -2.5% lower as compared to 7.1Mt at 4Q 2021.

Operating income in 4Q 2022 was broadly stable at $255 million as compared 3Q 2022 and lower by -25.7% as compared to $343 million in 4Q 2021.

EBITDA in 4Q 2022 of $312 million was broadly stable as compared to $311 million in 3Q 2022, with the effect of lower iron ore reference prices (-4.8%) and lower quality premia offset in part by lower freight and other costs. EBITDA in 4Q 2022 was lower as compared to $400 million in 4Q 2021, primarily due to lower iron ore reference prices (-10.7%), lower shipments (-2.5%) and lower quality premia partially offset by lower freight costs.

**Joint ventures**

ArcelorMittal has investments in various joint ventures and associate entities globally. The Company considers the Calvert (50% equity interest) and AMNS India (60% equity interest) joint ventures to be of particular strategic importance, warranting more detailed disclosures to improve the understanding of their operational performance and value to the Company.

Crude steel production in 4Q 2022 decreased by -2.3% to 1.6Mt as compared to 1.7Mt in 3Q 2022. Production was lower by -12.1% as compared to 4Q 2021 due to lower exports following the imposition of export duties on steel exports from India in 2Q 2022 (export duties removed from the end of November 2022).

Steel shipments in 4Q 2022 decreased by -2.5% to 1.6Mt as compared to 3Q 2022 and -8.0% lower as compared to 1.7Mt in 4Q 2021 due to the reasons discussed above.

EBITDA during 4Q 2022 of $162 million was lower as compared to $204 million in 3Q 2022, due to lower steel shipments and lower selling prices.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Net cash provided by operating activities for 4Q 2022 was $3,634 million as compared to $1,981 million in 3Q 2022 and $4,154 million in 4Q 2021. Net cash provided by operating activities in 4Q 2022 includes a working capital release of $2,412 million as compared to a working capital investment of $580 million in 3Q 2022 and $22 million release in 4Q 2021. 4Q 2022 working capital release (as compared to 3Q 2022) was driven primarily by lower accounts receivable (due to lower prices and lower volumes), and lower inventories (due to the impact of lower production costs and reduced inventory volumes).

Capex in 4Q 2022 increased to $1,500 million as compared with $784 million in 3Q 2022 as projects gained momentum following earlier impacts from project mobilization/contractor delays. Capex of $3.5 billion in 12M 2022 is in line with the latest guidance and compares with $3.0 billion in 12M 2021. In line with the rate of spending in 2H 2022 capex in 2023 is expected in the range of $4.5-5.0 billion. Decarbonization capex is expected to increase to $0.4 billion in 2023 (vs. $0.2 billion in 2022). The previously announced strategic pipeline (2021-2024) has now increased by $0.5 billion to $4.2 billion<sup>19</sup>, with the addition of a new production unit for electrical steels at the Mardyck site in the north of France, with $0.9 billion having been spent as of the end of 2022. The Company expects strategic projects capex in 2023 between $1.3-$1.6 billion as compared to $0.7 billion in 2022 largely due to catch up on previously announced projects. Capex outside of strategic capex and decarbonization projects including general maintenance capex is expected to be $2.8-$3.0 billion in 2023 (vs. $2.6 billion in 2022).

Net cash used in other investing activities in 4Q 2022 was $33 million primarily related to the $25 million investment in nuclear innovation company TerraPower. Net cash used in other investing activities in 3Q 2022 was $19 million mainly related to investment in Form Energy Inc. 4Q 2021 cash outflow of $90 million primarily related to a $45 million investment through the XCarb™ Innovation Fund<sup>10</sup> (including $30 million for the carbon recycling company, LanzaTech).

Net cash provided by financing activities in 4Q 2022 of $1,578 million as compared to net cash used in financing activities in 3Q 2022 of $219 million and $2,990 million in 4Q 2021. On November 21, 2022, ArcelorMittal priced new USD notes issuance with two tranches: a 5-year, $1.2 billion tranche at 6.55% and a 10-year, $1.0 billion tranche at 6.80% (both offerings occurred on November 29, 2022). In 4Q 2022, the Company repurchased 10.3 million shares for a total value of $225 million ($288 million including $63 million related to 3Q 2022 purchases settled early October 2022) as part of its previously announced share buy back program and paid minority dividends of $29 million mainly to minority shareholders of Belgo Bekaert Arames (Brazil). In 3Q 2022, ArcelorMittal raised a €600 million 4 year note which was offset by the repurchase of 31 million shares for a total value of $712 million (of which $649 million was paid by the end of September 2022 and $63 million settled in early October 2022) and paid minority dividends of $124 million mainly to minority shareholders of AMMC.

Gross debt increased to $11.7 billion as of December 31, 2022, as compared to $9.0 billion as of September 30, 2022, and $8.4 billion as of December 31, 2021. Net debt decreased by $1.7 billion to $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2022, as compared to $3.9 billion as of September 30, 2022, and decreased by $1.8 billion from $4.0 billion as of December 31, 2021.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had liquidity of $14.9 billion as compared to $10.6 billion as of September 30, 2022, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $9.4 billion (as of September 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents was $5.1 billion) and $5.5 billion of available credit lines<sup>14</sup>. As of December 31, 2022, the average debt maturity was 5.7 years.

**Recent developments**

• On July 28, 2022, ArcelorMittal announced it had signed an
agreement with the shareholders of CSP to acquire CSP for an enterprise value of approximately $2.2 billion. Antitrust final clearance
has now been obtained and transaction is expected to close in 1Q 2023. CSP is a world-class operation, producing high-quality slab at
a globally competitive cost.

**Value plan**

In 2022, the Company announced a new 3-year $1.5 billion value plan focused on creating value through well-defined commercial and operational initiatives. The plan did not include the impact of strategic projects. The plan included commercial initiatives, including volume/mix improvements and operational improvements (primarily in variable costs). The plan aimed to protect the EBITDA potential of the business from rising inflationary pressures; improving its relative competitive position vis-a-vis its peers and supporting sustainably higher profits.

The Value plan has progressed during 2022 and is on track. Several actions were taken in 2022 which yielded improvement of $0.4 billion (~25% of the plan). Examples of the initiatives undertaken are as follows:

• Commercial: Projects to improve cost to manufacture value-added
products; and increase higher added value mix (e.g. Magnelis products and Advanced High Strength Steels)

• Operational: Improvement of fuel rates in blast furnaces;
substitution of purchased coke through improved performance of coke oven batteries; purchasing gains through local sourcing initiatives

With the ongoing focus to execute and deliver the value plan initiatives the Company anticipates improvements >$1.1 billion over the next 2 years.

**Capital return** 

In line with the Company's capital return policy, the Board proposes to increase the annual base dividend to shareholders to $0.44/sh (to be paid in 2 equal instalments in June 2023 and December 2023), subject to the approval of shareholders at the AGM in May 2023.

Share buybacks will continue as per the Company's defined policy to return 50% of post-dividend FCF to shareholders. The Company will request the customary authorizations from shareholders at the AGM in May 2023 to continue to repurchase shares.

**Financial calendar for 2023**

• General meeting of shareholders: May 2, 2023: ArcelorMittal
Annual General Meeting ("AGM")

• Earnings results announcements: May 4, 2023 Earnings release
1Q 2023; July 27, 2023: Earnings release 2Q and half year 2023; November 9, 2023: Earnings release 3Q and nine-months 2023

**Outlook** 

As anticipated, apparent demand conditions are now showing signs of improvement as the destocking phase reaches maturity. Despite continued headwinds to real demand, World ex-China apparent steel consumption ("ASC") in 2023 is expected to recover by +2.0% to +3.0% as compared to 2022 (when global ASC is estimated to have contracted by -2.0% to -2.5%), due to non-recurrence of the destocking effects that weighed on demand, particularly in the final months of 2022. The Company expects its steel shipments in 2023 to grow by ~5% vs. 2022<sup>11</sup>.

ArcelorMittal expects the following demand dynamics by key region:

• In the US, although real demand growth is expected to remain
lackluster due to the lagged impact of interest rates rises, the anticipated end to destocking is expected to lead to an increase in apparent
steel consumption of +1.5% to +3.5% in 2023;

• In Europe, the impact of significant destocking drove a contraction
of apparent consumption by -7.0% to -7.5% in 2022. As a result, whilst the Company does assume a marginal decline in real demand in 2023,
apparent demand is expected to recover by +0.5% to +2.5% in 2023. This would represent a significantly higher level of apparent demand
as compared to the peak of the destocking cycle in 4Q 2022;

• In Brazil, the Company expects a gradual rebound in real steel
consumption in 2023 and slowdown in the destock to support an ASC growth of +3.0% to +5.0%;

• In India, the Company expects another strong year with apparent
steel consumption growth in the range of +6.0% to +8.0%;

• In the CIS region (which includes Commonwealth of Independent
States and Ukraine), whilst the Company forecasts some improvement in steel consumption in Ukraine, this is more than offset by the expected
decline in Russian steel consumption due to the lagged impact of ongoing sanctions, particularly lower oil and gas revenue, leading to
an expected decline in ASC of 0.0% to -2.0% for the region; and

• In China, economic growth is expected to rebound strongly
in 2023 as COVID-19 restrictions are now lifted. However, with continued weakness expected in real estate during the year, steel consumption
is expected to stabilize in 2023 (+1.0% to -1.0%) with potential upside dependent on government infrastructure stimulus.

The Company expects working capital will follow the normal seasonal patterns (including an investment in 1Q 2023) but expects a release for the full year 2023.

The Company expects positive FCF generation in 2023; capex is expected to increase to within the $4.5-$5.0 billion range, interest costs are expected to increase to approximately $0.4 billion, and lower cash taxes (including non-recurrence of timing related payments made in 2022 of $0.7 billion).

a) Investment in ArcelorMittal Dofasco (Canada) to modernize the hot strip mill. The project is to install two new state of the art coilers and runout tables to replace three end of life coilers. The strip cooling system was upgraded and includes innovative power cooling technology to improve product capability. The project was completed in 2Q 2022 and is estimated to add ~$25 million of EBITDA in 2023.

b) Investment to replace #5 Hot-Dip Galvanizing Line Galvanneal coating capability with 160kt/year Aluminum Silicon (AluS<sup>i®</sup>) capability for the production of ArcelorMittal's patented Usibor<sup>®</sup> Press Hardenable Steel for automotive structural and safety components. With the investment, ArcelorMittal Dofasco becomes the only Canadian producer of AluSi<sup>®</sup> coated Usibor<sup>®</sup>. This investment complements additional strategic North America developments, including a new EAF and caster at Calvert in the US and a new hot strip mill in Mexico, and will allow to capitalize on increasing Auto Aluminized PHS demand in North America. The project was completed in 3Q 2022 and is estimated to add $40 million of EBITDA on full completion and post ramp up (estimated by 2025).

c) In February 2021, ArcelorMittal announced the resumption of the Vega Do Sul expansion to provide an additional 700kt of cold-rolled annealed and galvanized capacity to serve the growing domestic market. The ~$0.35 billion investment programme to increase rolling capacity with construction of a new continuous annealing line and CGL combiline (and the option to add a ca. 100kt organic coating line to serve construction and appliance segments), and upon completion, will strengthen ArcelorMittal's position in the fast growing automotive and industry markets through Advanced High Strength Steel products. The project is expected to be completed in 4Q 2023 and estimated to add >$0.1 billion of EBITDA on full completion and post ramp up.

d) ArcelorMittal Liberia has been operating 5Mt direct shipping ore (DSO) since 2011 (Phase 1). The Company restarted construction of a Phase 2 project that envisages the construction of 15Mtpa of concentrate sinter fines capacity and associated infrastructure. Changed project scope and engineering, together with supply chain delays has impacted the construction schedule. Detailed construction design is well advanced. Main civil works started, whilst contracting and mobilization for other construction packages underway. Capex required to conclude the project is currently under review given impact of enlarged scope and inflation. Under the amendment to the Mineral Development Agreement (MDA) signed in September 2021, the Company has further expansion opportunities up to 30Mtpa. First concentrate is now estimated in 4Q 2024. The project is estimated to add approximately $250 million of EBITDA on full completion and post ramp up to 15Mtpa rate. Revised capex estimates will be communicated in 1H 2023.

e) ArcelorMittal Mexico is investing ~$150 million to increase pellet feed production by 1Mtpa to 2.3Mtpa and improve concentrate grade in Las Truchas. This project will enable concentrate production to the blast furnace (BF) route (2.0Mtpa) and DRI route (0.3Mtpa) for a total of 2.3Mtpa. Primary target is to supply ArcelorMittal Mexico steel operations with high quality feed. Project start-up date delayed to 2H 2024 due to slower progress of equipment deliveries and construction works, as well as delays to obtain required construction permits. The project is estimated to add approximately $50 million of EBITDA on full completion and post ramp up.

f) Approximately $350 million investment at Serra Azul (Brazil) to construct facilities to produce 4.5Mtpa of DRI quality pellet feed to primarily supply ArcelorMittal Mexico steel operation. The project will allow to mine the compact itabirite iron ore. Project start-up date delayed to 2H 2024 due to slower than scheduled mobilization leading to delayed construction works. The project is estimated to add approximately $100 million of EBITDA on full completion and post ramp up.

g) The Monlevade upstream expansion project consisting of the sinter plant, blast furnace and meltshop has recommenced in late 2021, following the anticipated improvement in Brazil domestic market. Capex required to complete the project is currently under review and the revised capex estimates will be communicated in 1H 2023.

h) Investment in ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih to build a 5.0Mtpa pellet plant. However the project is on hold and has been suspended with the revised completion date and budget dependent on when the project can be effectively resumed due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

i) ~$0.25 billion investment in sections mill at Barra Mansa (Brazil) with 400ktpa production capacity. The aim of the project is to deliver higher added value products (HAV) (Merchant Bar and Special Bars) to increase domestic market share in HAV products and to enhance profitability. The project commenced in 2022 and is expected to be completed by 1Q 2024 and estimated to add $0.1 billion of EBITDA on full completion and post ramp up.

j) This $0.6 billion investment, combining solar and wind power, will be supported by Greenko's hydro pumped storage project, which helps to overcome the intermittent nature of wind and solar power generation. The project is owned and funded by ArcelorMittal. Greenko will design, construct and operate the facilities in Andhra Pradesh, Southern India. AMNS India will enter into a 25 year off-take agreement with ArcelorMittal to purchase 250 MW of renewable electricity annually from the project, resulting in over 20% of the electricity requirement at AMNS India's Hazira plant coming from renewable sources, reducing carbon emissions by approximately 1.5Mt per year. Necessary allotment of land has been received from the Government of Andhra Pradesh. Private land acquisition is in progress and key contracts for wind projects have been executed and are in negotiation for the solar project. The project commissioning is expected by mid-2024 and estimated to add $70 million of EBITDA (excluding savings at AMNS India) upon completion. The Company is studying the option to develop a second phase which would double the installed capacity.

k) On March 17, 2022, ArcelorMittal announced an investment with the support of the French government, to create a new production unit for electrical steels at its Mardyck site in the north of France. This new unit will specialize in the production of electrical steels for the engines of electric vehicles and which complements ArcelorMittal's existing electrical steels plant in Saint Chély d'Apcher, in the south of France. The new industrial unit in Mardyck will have a 170,000-tonne production capacity and is scheduled to start up in 3Q 2024. The $0.5 billion investment program aims at implementing a production capacity of 170Kt Non-Grain Orientated (NGO) Electrical Steels (of which 145kt for automotive applications) consisting of annealing and pickling line (APL), reversing mill (REV) and annealing and varnishing (ACL) line to be installed in Mardyck (France). The completion will occur in 2 steps: the commissioning and start of ramp-up of the end-of-streamline (Annealing & Coating Line and related installations) is expected to be in 2H 2024; the start-up of the Annealing and Pickling Line and the Reversing Mill is expected to occur in 2Q 2025. The project is estimated potentially to add $100 million of EBITDA on full completion and post ramp up.

**Footnotes**

1. The financial information in this press release has been prepared
consistently with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board ("IASB") and as adopted by the European Union. The interim financial information included in this announcement has also
been prepared in accordance with IFRS applicable to interim periods, however this announcement does not contain sufficient information
to constitute an interim financial report as defined in International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting".
The numbers in this press release have not been audited. The financial information and certain other information presented in a number
of tables in this press release have been rounded to the nearest whole number or the nearest decimal. Therefore, the sum of the numbers
in a column may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that column. In addition, certain percentages presented in the tables
in this press release reflect calculations based upon the underlying information prior to rounding and, accordingly, may not conform exactly
to the percentages that would be derived if the relevant calculations were based upon the rounded numbers. Segment information presented
in this press release is prior to inter-segment eliminations and certain adjustments made to operating result of the segments to reflect
corporate costs, income from non-steel operations (e.g., logistics and shipping services) and the elimination of stock margins between
the segments. This press release also includes certain non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures. ArcelorMittal presents EBITDA
and EBITDA/tonne, free cash flow (FCF) and ratio of net debt/EBITDA which are non-GAAP financial/alternative performance measures, as
additional measures to enhance the understanding of its operating performance. ArcelorMittal also presents Equity book value per share
and ROE as shown in footnotes to this press release. ArcelorMittal believes such indicators are relevant to provide management and investors
with additional information. ArcelorMittal also presents net debt and change in working capital as additional measures to enhance the
understanding of its financial position, changes to its capital structure and its credit assessment. ArcelorMittal also presents adjusted
net income(loss) and adjusted basic earnings per share as it believes these are useful measures for the underlying business performance
excluding impairment items, exceptional items. The Company's guidance as to free cash flow, cash taxes and its working capital release
(or the change in working capital included in net cash provided by operating activities) for 2023 is based on the same accounting policies
as those applied in the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Non-GAAP financial/alternative performance
measures should be read in conjunction with, and not as an alternative to, ArcelorMittal's financial information prepared in accordance
with IFRS.

2. Effective 2Q 2021, ArcelorMittal retrospectively amended its
presentation of reportable segments. The results of each mine are accounted for within the steel segment that it primarily supplies. Summary
of changes: NAFTA: all Mexico mines; Brazil: Andrade and Serra Azul mines; Europe: ArcelorMittal Prijedor mine (Bosnia and Herzegovina);
ACIS: Kazakhstan and Ukraine mines; and Mining: only AMMC and Liberia iron ore mines.

3. LTIF figures presented for 12M 2022 of 0.70x and 12M 2021
of 0.79x exclude ArcelorMittal Italia (which was deconsolidated as from 2Q 2021 onwards).

4. In 2022, the Company recognized a $1,026 million impairment
charge related to property, plant and equipment with respect to ArcelorMittal Kriviy Rih (Ukraine) in the ACIS segment, where the ongoing
conflict with Russia resulted in low levels of production, sales and income and created significant uncertainty about the timing and ability
of operations to return to a normal level of activity. Recent attacks against Ukrainian power infrastructures caused additional operational
issues for ArcelorMittal Kriviy Rih and the increasing geopolitical tensions resulted in a substantial increase in the discount rate applied
by the Company in its value in use calculation. Impairment gain for 12M 2021 amounted to $218 million following improved cash flow projections
in the context of decarbonization plans in Sestao (Spain) (partially reversing the impairment recognized in 2015).

5. Exceptional items for 12M 2022 of $0.3 billion included $0.5
billion of non-cash inventory related provisions (recognized in 3Q 2022) to reflect the net realizable value of inventory under IFRS with
declining market prices in Europe and partially offset by a $0.1 billion purchase gain on the acquisition of a Hot Briquetted Iron ('HBI')
plant in Texas and $0.1 billion gain following the settlement of a claim by ArcelorMittal for a breach of a supply contract. Exceptional
items for 12M 2021 of $123 million related to expected costs for the decommissioning of the dam at the Serra Azul mine in Brazil.

6. See Appendix 5 for reconciliation of adjusted net income and
adjusted basic EPS.

7. September 30, 2020, was the inception date of the recent share
buyback programs.

8. ROE refers to "Return on Equity" which is calculated
as trailing twelve-month net income (excluding impairment charges and exceptional items) attributable to equity holders of the parent
divided by the average equity attributable to the equity holders of the parent over the period. 2022 ROE of 20.3% ($10.6 billion / $52.3
billion).

9. Equity book value per share is calculated as the Equity attributable
to the equity holders of the parent divided by diluted number of shares at the end of the period. 4Q 2022 total equity of $53.2 billion
divided by 862 million diluted shares outstanding equals $62/sh. 3Q 2022 total equity of $51.6 billion divided by 873 million diluted
shares outstanding equals $59/sh. 4Q 2021 total equity of 49.1 billion divided by 967 million diluted shares outstanding equals $51/sh.

10. XCarb™ is designed to bring together all of ArcelorMittal's
reduced, low and zero-carbon products and steelmaking activities, as well as wider initiatives and green innovation projects, into a single
effort focused on achieving demonstrable progress towards carbon neutral steel. Alongside the new XCarb™ brand, we have launched
three XCarb™ initiatives: the XCarb™ innovation fund, XCarb™ green steel certificates and XCarb™ recycled and
renewably produced for products made via the Electric Arc Furnace route using scrap. The Company is offering green steel using a system
of certificates (XCarb® green certificates). These will be issued by an independent auditor to certify tonnes of CO2 savings achieved
through the Company's investment in decarbonization technologies in Europe. Net-zero equivalence is determined by assigning CO2
savings certificates equivalent to CO2 per tonne of steel produced in 2018 as baseline. The certificates will relate to the tonnes of
CO2 saved in total, as a direct result of the decarbonization projects being implemented across a number of its European sites.

11. 12M 2023 steel shipment guidance does not include CSP acquisition
and assumes no change in Ukraine.

12. The Company has introduced a 50% increase in the short term
incentive plan (STIP) link to safety performance (with fatalities acting as a circuit breaker); increased the safety target in STIP to
15% and long term incentive plan (LTIP) to 10%; and included ESG objectives in LTIP.

13. ArcelorMittal Mines Canada, otherwise known as ArcelorMittal
Mines and Infrastructure Canada.

14. On December 19, 2018, ArcelorMittal signed a $5.5 billion
Revolving Credit Facility, with a five-year maturity plus two one-year extension options. During the fourth quarter of 2019, ArcelorMittal
executed the option to extend the facility to December 19, 2024. The extension was completed for $5.4 billion of the available amount,
with the remaining $0.1 billion remaining with a maturity of December 19, 2023. In December 2020, ArcelorMittal executed the second option
to extend the facility, and the new maturity is now extended to December 19, 2025. On April 30, 2021, ArcelorMittal amended its $5.5 billion
RCF to align with its sustainability and climate action strategy. As of December 31, 2022, the $5.5 billion revolving credit facility
was fully available.

15. The listed investment of Erdemir had a market value of $910
million, $660 million and $885 million as of December 31, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

16. Estimate of additional contribution to EBITDA, based on assumptions
including synergies and once ramped up to capacity and assuming prices/spreads generally in line with long term averages.

17. FY 2021 FCF of $6.6 billion ($9.9 billion net cash provided
by operating activities less capex of $3.0 billion less minority dividends of $0.3 billion).

18. On March 30, 2022, Votorantim exercised the put option right
it has under its shareholders' agreement with the Company to sell its entire equity interest in ArcelorMittal Brasil to the Company,
following the acquisition of Votorantim S.A.'s long steel business in Brazil in 2018, which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ArcelorMittal
Brasil. The exercise price is calculated pursuant to an agreed formula in the shareholders' agreement which applies a 6x multiple
of ArcelorMittal Brasil Longs Business EBITDA in the four immediately preceding calendar quarters from the date of the put option exercise
(subject to certain adjustments, such as the exclusion of any unusual, infrequent or abnormal events) less an assumed net debt of BRL
6.2 billion times 15%. ArcelorMittal Brasil calculated the put option exercise price in the amount of $0.2 billion. Votorantim S.A. has
indicated that it does not agree with ArcelorMittal Brasil's calculation of the exercise price and filed a request for arbitration
on September 28, 2022.
