Report on Operations
Dear Shareholders,
Profits reported by the Group for the year ending 31 December 2011 amounted to
€ 13.5 million after deductions relative to taxes (€ 22 million) and depreciation (€ 87
million).
In assessing the Group’s performance during the year reviewed consideration should
be given to the on-going global economic situation and in particular the markets where
the Group operates.
Steel Market
Following a continuous and significant increase of apparent steel consumption in the
EU 27 Country area from 2003 to 2007, progressive global reductions, with the exception of Asia, were registered as of the last quarter of 2008 and reached an all-time low
of 115 million tons in 2009. The EU trend reversed in 2010/2011, following overall improvements in the international framework, which resulted in an initial recovery of 19%
in 2010 and reached 146 million tons in 2011.
Though this figure is a healthy 27% increase over 2009, it is still a good 38 million tons
(-21%) below 2007 and is particularly uneven throughout EU countries with Italy and
southern Europe way below the volumes registered in northern and eastern Europe.
After the marked decrease in world steel production registered in 2009, leaving only
Asia unscathed, an initial recovery of approximately 15% at world level and 25% in the
27 EU Countries was witnessed in 2011. The uptrend continued into 2010 to approximately 1.5 billion tons globally, equalling an increase of 27% over 2009 for the EU and
44% for Italy (+ approx. 9 million tons), much of which was destined for export.
The outstanding level of production in Asia, particularly in China, saw the BRICS share
of world production exceed 60%, with China alone accounting for 46% of global production and 64% of production within Asia.
Intense changes in consumption, particularly in mature markets and primarily in southern EU countries was most certainly due to a decrease in real consumption in many
steel intensive sectors such as the construction and automotive industries – only partially balanced by the improved apparent market demand, especially after the significant de-stocking process that characterized all of 2009.
Recovery has in fact been significant throughout 2011, though stronger in apparent
rather than real consumption – a trend that also characterized the distribution market which benefitted from an increase of 8% over 2009 figures albe it -3.7% fall over
2010 and the more significant difference of approx. -25% compared to figures for
2007/2008.
5
Demand increased during the first and second quarters but decreased in the fourth
quarter of 2011 and was even lower than the same period in both 2009 and 2010.
Though distribution companies benefitted from the positive market trend in the first
part of the year, despite distinct differences between sectors and products, this was
partially sacrificed as markets declined during the last quarter.
Structural uncertainty increased in 2011, with shorter steel making cycles and greater
variations in prices conditioned by trends in major raw material supplies, particularly
iron ore, coking coal and scrap, supported by high demand from countries in Asia – an
area where the international product price is established in $/ton and then converted to
Euro for the EU market – yet another unforeseeable variant within our system.
Though the overall annual result is positive, excess structural competition, already
present in the distribution sector of the Italian service centres and amplified by decreased consumption after 2008 led to measures aimed at improving operational profitability in certain areas.
As far as the SSC division is concerned, an upturn in sales volumes together with improved unitary profit margins and greater efficiency in managing operational expenditure has allowed the Group to achieve satisfactory economic results in 2011.
Automotive Market
As for the Passenger Cars market, new car registrations in EU27 countries decreased
by 1.7% between 2010 and 2011 to 13.1 million vehicles (following a decrease of 5.5%
between 2009 and 2010), mainly due to continued difficulties and uncertainty in Western Europe. Major decreases were registered in Spain (-17.7%), Italy (-10.9%), the
UK (-4.4%) and France (-2.1%), while a significant increase of 8.8% was registered by
Germany. Main carmaker customers of the CLN Group in Europe which recorded decreased registrations in 2011 include the Fiat Group (-12.1%), PSA (-9%) and Renault
(-8.4%) while BMW reported an increase of 7.6%.
Light Commercial Vehicle registrations in Europe (EU 27 + EFTA), once again showed
an opposing trend and rose by 7.5% over the PSC share: sales increased in France
(+2.7%), Germany (+18.8%), and the UK (+16.7%) whereas a decrease was registered in Italy (-6.1%) and Spain (-10.1%). All main CLN Group European LCV market
Customers reported increases in registrations, in particular Renault (+4.7%), the FIAT
Group (+5.2%) and PSA (+2,6%).
With reference to new car registrations in the main non-European markets where the
Group operated in 2011:
Turkey continued growing by +16.5% in 2011 (though less than in 2010);
.
6
. Russia experienced a sharp increase of +39% in 2011, after a 2 year period of stagnation;
. In Brazil PSC registrations were essentially stable in 2011 compared to 2010 while
LCV registrations increased by +13.8%;
. In South Africa, overall growth continued by +17.5% for PSC and +12% for LCV.
Both the Wheels and Automotive Divisions handled the difficulties experienced by the
PSC market in Western Europe through customer and geographical diversification, increased product and process ranges and thanks to the presence in market segments
(A and B) less affected by the market slump; the improved LCV market in addition
generated positive economic results. The development and diversification strategies
initiated in recent years together with the structural re-organization that has been implemented since 2009, particularly in Italy and France, have enabled the Group to
achieve more than satisfactory results despite reference market difficulties.

To summarize, 2011 closed with revenues totalling € 1,892.4 million, a significant increase of 11.2% over 2010 with EBITDA equalling € 160.3 million, 10% less than the
year before.
An increase in sales was general in all Group Divisions; the following affected this increase significantly:
(i)Consolidation scope differed between 2010 and 2011. The metal pressing
company in South Africa was consolidated for 12 months in 2011 against 7
months in 2010 inducing an impact of € 34 million and the South African controlled wheel producing company entered the consolidation perimeter in May,
inducing an impact of € 16 million; the Japanese and Malaysian Companies
acquired by the Wheel Division in September 2010 were also consolidated for
12 months in 2011 against 3 months in 2010 inducing an impact of € 6 million; Lastly the Russian controlled wheel producer Company brought sales of
a further € 7 million
14
(ii)Average raw material prices were higher than the year before and thus caused
higher sales prices with the same profit margin.
EBITDA worsening for 2011 was affected on the one hand by non recurring income giving advantage to 2010 (in particular in South Africa and South America)
and on the other by worsening of PSC volumes in Europe, particularly during the
last quarter of the year, as well as the phase-out of certain PSA models in South
America. These negative factors were only partly counterbalanced by increased
sales volumes in South Africa. Furthermore, the SSC Division had to account for
the devaluation of its steel stock at the end of 2011, to realign to new market prices,
with a negative impact amounting to approximately € 5 million (devaluation not
present in 2010).
In terms of results based on geographic distribution, a marked lack of balance can be
noted between production units located abroad and those located in Italy, which have
falling and unsatisfactory results compared to 2010 (a number of units are still operating at a deficit).
Monitoring of past investment recoverability, in particular before the 2008/2009 crisis,
continued in 2011, as in the previous two years. In view of this it was considered prudent to allow for a devaluation of € 8 million as an extraordinary expense relative to the
Group’s operations in Russia. Also Company reorganization and restructuring operations initiated in 2009, (accounted for € 17.9 million in extraordinary expenses in 2009
and € 6 million in 2010) have continued in 2011 with related costs of approximately €
5 million. Management of minority holdings closed in 2011 with significant benefits (€
6 million registered as extraordinary income) from the sale of IPM shares.

The Wheels Division also recorded a significant increase (+24.6%) in sales in 2011,
equal to € 34 million mainly due to variations made to the consolidation perimeter during the year regarding Japan, Malaysia, Russia and South Africa and increases in the
price of raw materials which boosted sale prices. Sales volumes did not increase and
maintained the levels achieved in 2010.
Greater sales revenues did not generate benefits in terms of EBITDA, which were in
fact below those registered in 2010, essentially due to the worsening performance of
the companies located in Italy.

and in Turkey (+ € 12 million).
Decreased EBITDA originates from the worsening of performance in South America,
Poland and Italy, connected on the one hand to the slump in the PSC market (particularly
in the last quarter of 2011) and on the other to model/production portfolio changes
implemented by a number of Customers.

With reference to the Balance sheet for the CLN Group, 2011 recorded increased
working capital of approximately € 24 million due to reduced Customer advance
payments for the completion of tooling manufacturing and the reduction of tax
debts.
Net working capital is stated net of receivables sold without recourse (€ 161 million on
31 December 2011 and € 118 million on 31 December 2010).
The decrease of net invested capital (- € 26 million) is essentially due to depreciation
19
greater than new capital expenditure and variations in exchange rates especially with
regard to the Rand and the Zloty.
Total net equity decreased by € 11 million mainly due to markedly reduced conversion
reserve (- € 23 million) and dividends to shareholders (€ 5.2 million) that more than
absorbed yearly results; the entry of Simest as a minority shareholder in South African
metal forming operations generated an increase to third party ownership equivalent to
approximately € 4 million
As in the past three years, net debits continue to decrease: cash flow from operational
management ensured full coverage of annual investments.
In July, 2007 the parent company CLN Spa took out a bank pool loan headed by the
Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA bank totalling € 135 million. The amount remaining
on 31 December 2011 equalled € 47.2 million. This loan is subject to economic and
financial covenants, based on:
1.Net Debt/Equity
2. Net Debt/EBITDA
3. EBITDA/Net Financial charges
These financial indicators were all found to be in compliance on 31 December 2011.
Main Economic and Financial Indicators.
The main economic indicator for the CLN Group is EBITDA, the main financial indicator being Net Debit, as represented in the Reclassified Balance sheet table. Further

The Current Ratio at 31 December 2011 was less than 1 but in line with the previous year. As explained in greater detail in the following paragraph under the heading
“Liquidity Risk”, the Group had undrawn “hot money” facilities of € 41 million. Furthermore, the Group reached an agreement with a Pool of banks (including Intesa
Sanpaolo, Unicredit, BNP Parisbas e Monte dei Paschi di Siena) in 2012 regarding the
stipulation of a syndicated loan (€ 225/250 million) to finance new development initiatives and replace the medium long-term funding reimbursed in 2011 and throughout
previous years. Final deliberations are currently underway.

MAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES FACING THE GROUP
Financial Risks
The CLN Group is exposed to numerous financial risks arising from normal operational
activities which are constantly monitored in an effort to mitigate possible negative effects. These include:
Credit risks, in relation to day-to-day commercial business with customers;
Liquidity risks, related in particular to the availability of financial resources and access to the credit market;
Currency risks, (mainly related to exchange and interest rates) as the Group operates internationally in various currency areas and is potentially exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates and relative interest rates.
.
.
.
Credit Risks
The theoretical maximum exposure to credit risk as at 31 December 2011 is represented by the accountable value of receivables registered in the financial statement.
The CLN Group adopts creditworthiness policies designed towards monitoring the solvency of its customers, and enters into factoring transactions (sales of trade receivables) without recourse, thereby transferring the relative risk.
In order to eliminate or minimize the credit risk deriving from commercial operations
the Group adopts the policy of making specific provisions against specific non performing credits. Based on past experience, to cover generic risks on credits, funds may be
reserved as a precautionary measure to cover generic risk on credits.
22
Liquidity Risk
The principal factors influencing the liquidity of the CLN Group include the resources generated by or absorbed in operations, and the resources deployed in servicing debt and those invested toward strategy and production development The levels of cash flow (actual and forecasted), credit lines and liquidity of the Group are
constantly monitored through treasury reports. At the close of 2011 liquidity (including portfolio securities) amounted to € 87 million and the credit lines available for
short-term financial advances amounted to € 41 million, whilst the lines available
for advances on invoices factoring with recourse amounted to € 174 million.
Currency Risks
The CLN Group is subject to foreign currency risk due to exchange rate fluctuations
affecting international transaction costs, revenues and funding including the conversion of financial statements of consolidated companies within the Group operating in
currencies other than the Euro.
These fluctuations can affect the Group’s net profit (loss) and equity
In 2011, the principal rates of exchange to which the CLN Group was exposed were
the following:
EUR/Zloty
EUR/Peso
EUR/Real
EUR/Leu
EUR/Rand
.
.
.
.
.
Interest Rate Risks
The CLN Group regularly performs factoring transactions with or without recourse
(sales of trade receivables with or without recourse) and, moreover, reverts to other
technical forms of funding, whether short-term (hot money, and advances on import/
export) or medium to long-term usually at variable rates of interest. Changes in market
interest rates affect the level of net financial charges.
23
Business Risks
The CLN Group is exposed to a number of risks relating to the marketplace in which it
operates including:
Risks associated with steel prices
The steel prices are sharply affected by “global” market dynamics (carbon and iron
costs, and steel demand from emerging markets, particularly Asia). In the Wheels
and Automotive Divisions, price variations in raw materials are normally directly
transferred to end-customers. The SSC Division is instead particularly influenced
by local market situations; in particular, a sudden and significant rise in raw material
(coils) prices may expose the SSC Division to the risk of not being able to recover
such costs from end-customers. Over the last three years, the market in which the
SSC Division operates has been (and will be) structurally characterized by a volatile
price market with rapid and violent repeated oscillations throughout the year. These
micro-cycles lead to increased speculation in purchase decision-taking (formation
of demand), whether in terms of distribution or end-users, active primarily in the
“general industry” segment, and hence increase the risk associated with our business activities.
Automotive Market Trend Risks
Group performance is significantly affected by the automotive market and in particular those in Europe, South America and South Africa. These markets are highly
competitive in terms of product quality, innovation and, especially in recent years,
price. Furthermore, due to the shrinking demand for new cars, major carmakers
worldwide are struggling with production overcapacity. It is well known that the car
industry suffers far more than other market segments from risk factors and market
uncertainties such as GDP upturns or downturns, corporate and/or consumer confidence and consumer credit interest rates, all of which constantly affect the demand
for durable goods. The Automotive market is also notoriously cyclic, though it is
always difficult to predict extent and duration. The global recession in 2008 and the
first part of 2009 hit the automotive market hard and this weighed heavily on the
Group’s results for the same period. The current economic weakness felt by countries in the Eurozone, and in particular Italy, is generating uncertainties regarding
the possible evolution of business activities in general, not only in the car industry.
In Europe, though many governments, the EU, monetary authorities and private
corporations have endeavoured to provide financial support to EU member states in
24
difficulty and to offset default by a number of European countries, reserves persist
regarding the burden of debt carried by certain Eurozone countries and their capacity to honour future financial commitments, the overall stability of the Euro as a
single European currency (or in more extreme circumstances, the possible dissolution of the Euro) considering the diverse economic and political backgrounds of the
Eurozone member states. Furthermore, global uncertainties regarding European finances has resulted in worsening interest rates on loans to businesses and general
shrinking of available credit.
Developments in this direction could have a negative impact on the Group’s activities
and operations.
The CLN Group endeavours to take measures, where possible, to offset these risks
by broadening its customer base and heightening geographical diversification. Business initiatives set forth by carmakers are closely followed and the range of products
and processes within the Group are in constant evolution. Past initiatives to this regard
have been undertaken by the Group in South Africa, India, Russia and more recently
in Serbia, Turkey and China.
Risks associated with sales in international markets
A significant portion of the Group’s production activities are conducted and located outside of Italy and the Group expects that revenues from sales outside Italy will account
for a continually increasing portion of its total revenues in the foreseeable future. All of
this exposes the Group to risks inherent to operating globally, including those related to
exposure to local economic and political conditions, import and/or export restrictions,
and multiple tax regimes.
Risks associated with market footprint in emerging economies
The Group operates across a broad spectrum of emerging economies, whether directly (Brazil, Argentina and South Africa) or through Joint Venture agreements or
other cooperation agreements (Turkey, India, Russia, Serbia and as of 2012 China).
The Group’s exposure to the economic trends in these countries has heightened in
recent years. Unfavourable economic or political developments in any one of these
areas (which may vary from country to country) could have a material adverse effect
on the Group’s activities and future prospects, as well as its earnings and financial
position.
Many of our main OEM customers have established globalization policies in the past
and intend to continue in the future aimed at reaching emerging markets. In some
cases our Group has seconded our customers’ initiatives. Our customers’ capacity to
25
reach their objectives and their level of success is a prime factor influencing the profitability of our subsequent initiatives.
Risks associated with Joint Venture Agreements
The Group currently pursues a policy designed toward seeking out alliance and
Joint Venture opportunities aimed at achieving objectives including vertical integration, customer loyalty and business expansion, capital deployment optimization and
risk mitigation, particularly in when entering emerging economies. Joint Venture
agreements are often effected through majority, par-venture and even minority acquisitions.
Multiple factors affect the outcome of Joint Venture agreements such as relationships with respective partners; a shared vision of future strategies to be pursued,
technical and/or financial difficulties and possible problems with local laws and
regulations.
Competition Risks
The automotive components supply market, regarding both wheels and metal formed
components, is highly competitive. The CLN Group is obliged to compete with numerous other suppliers of wheels and components. Some of these hold a more dominant
position in certain areas than ours while others are having to undergo drastic restructuring and reorganization. New suppliers are also appearing from emerging markets
that could well further increase levels of competition.
Risks regarding OEM Outsourcing Policies
The automotive components supply market, regarding both wheels and moulded
components, is strongly affected by OEM outsourcing policies. Multiple factors influence OEM decisions including: internal production capacity, perception of strategic
relevance of certain components, financial resources, production costs, quality, delivery times and know-how. These choices/strategies adopted by OEMs determine
the size of current/potential markets for all those operating in the automotive components sector.
26
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
In conducting business, the CLN Group is committed to protecting the environment
and ensuring compliance with applicable eco-friendly regulations and legislation. At all
points in the manufacturing chain, from the way materials are treated to how waste is
disposed of together with the amount of energy needed, the CLN Group endeavours
to ensure that environmental impact remains at a minimum.
With regard to REACH (the Regulation on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and
Restriction of Chemicals across the European Union territory), introduced in application
of and pursuant to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, CLN continued to monitor – throughout 2011 - regulatory evolution through the REACH coordination team created in 2008.
Particular attention was given to the Candidate List (a list issued by the ECHA regarding prohibited substances) to ensure that the substances listed were not present in
neither products produced nor purchased by the Group.
With regard to industrial safety and industrial health, the year under review was characterized by perpetuation of works inherent to the Industrial Safety Project launched in 2009 with
the introduction of new activities aimed at improving safety levels throughout all Divisions.
The above project represents the first step toward creating an Industrial Health & Safety Management System designed to:
provide a safe and healthy working environment for all staff and ensure the risk prevention in accordance with applicable laws and regulations;
identify and encourage the adoption of appropriate protection and prevention measures to minimize accident and injury frequency rates;
make available to company management an efficient and effective management
system to ensure that any and all problems that might arise are identified, monitored
and managed on an on-going basis and that information can be accessed as and
when wanted to ensure that operating and decision-taking responsibilities are adequately supported;
increase staff awareness, involvement and motivation;
boost performance and efficiency;
contribute to a safer and healthier working place;
improve the Group’s image both internally and externally aimed at creating greater credibility with regard to customers, suppliers and controlling authorities/organizations.
progressively reduce industrial health and safety costs.

Health, safety and the environment
are absolute priorities for all the companies in
the Group with regard to the workplace, machines and
systems used at the plants and methods of transportation.
All employees are well-informed, motivated and involved in
the commonly shared goal of “zero accidents”. The CLN
Group believes that the environment, what we know as
nature, is an indispensable heritage wherever we are.
Thus we have created green zones with shrubs and flowers
at all of our plants, and these are cared for directly by the
employees themselves.
29
Health and Safety measures planned for 2012 are based on the types of accidents
that occurred in 2011, highlighting how behavioural aspects can make the difference
and be of the utmost importance with regard to Health and Safety at all the production sites.
It is more than apparent that accident prevention must necessarily pass through greater staff involvement at all levels and through a methodical, structural and shared observance of general conduct
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Group research and development, which is fully expensed in the annual income statement, were focused as follows:
the application of innovative solutions linked to the use of materials;
the creation of product solutions geared toward increasing safety and reliability;
increased efficiency of key production processes;
responding proactively to customers by anticipating their needs and acting quickly
and efficiently to any requests they make.

As a Global Brain. Working in a partnership
means going a long way to be closer to our customers;
welcoming their challenges and opportunities and doing our
best to offer our own solutions; working in a relational
network that values all those involved, a network aimed at
building common development opportunities, and giving
continuity to collaboration and dialogue, to make our future
that much better.
33
With regard to related party transactions outstanding and, more pointedly, transactions with investees in which the CLN Group holds 50% or less of the respective
voting powers, attention is drawn to the following: aside from specific cases where
control over an investee is exercised jointly with the other party sharing control
(at 31 December 2011, joint control exercised over: DMW, MA-JBM, Almasider,
Prorena Ortolano S.r.l. and Itla S.r.l.), the CLN Group has no power to govern the
financial and operating policies of the investees. In consequence, aside from the
jointly controlled investees referred to above, the CLN Group has no power to
control the strategic, financial and operating decisions of an investee, particularly
in terms of relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and lending institutions.
SIGNIFICANT POST-BALANCE SHEET EVENTS
Events of significance occurring after the 2011 consolidated balance sheets were
drawn and closed are as follows:
February 2012 - MW Italia and Shanghai Baosteel International Economic and Trading Co., Ltd (“Baosteel”) signed a Joint Venture agreement and set up a new company called “Chongqing Baosteel – MW Wheels Co. Ltd”. MW holds a 25% share
of the new company, located in the Province of Chongqing in China. Production
capacity is expected to total 3.5 million PSC/LCV wheels per year.
Canessa S.p.A. agreed to transfer the production activities of the company in Fontanellato in favour of Prorena Ortolano S.r.l. On the strength of this contribution the
CLN Group acquired control of Prorena Ortolano S.r.l., which will be included in the
2012 Consolidated Financial Statements.
March 2012 – MW Italia and the WPT Group reached an agreement whereby MW
agreed to purchase the remaining 30.5% MWPT BV shares. All the relative expenses have already been included in the 2011 Financial Statements
Gianetti Ruote S.p.A., bought a 20% share in Fluid & Mechanical Engineering s.r.l.
12 April 2012 - MA and the Shougang Group Corporation signed an agreement to
form an equally held Joint Venture company producing stamped, assembled and
roll-formed products in the Beijing area (China).

outlook
The first two months of 2012 have essentially confirmed the trend registered in the last
quarter of 2011. The target markets began the year with uncertainty and with a drop in
the levels of demand compared to the analogous period of the prior financial year.
Steel Market
According to forecasts made by relevant trade associations such as Eurofer (for manufacturers) and Eurometal (for distribution), the apparent consumption in the EU-27 for
2012 is expected to decrease (- 2%) compared to 2011, marking a great difference (-22%)
compared to 2007, despite the significant differences amongst the Union’s members and
with Germany, once again, having the best performance opportunity, thanks to its export
possibilities, especially in the Far East, in the automotive and in the engineering industry.
The trends for GDPs within Europe are estimated as being close to zero, with countries
like Italy in recession (-1.2%) and its consequent consumption appraisals seen as being on the decline (-23% compared to 2007), with a particularly critical trend estimate
for the first part of 2012.
Volatile coil prices have risen in the first few months of 2012 running little short of
+100/T (approximately 20%), compared with minimum prices at the end of 2011.
Unfortunately the Italian market’s present situation doesn’t yet show signs of a solid
and stable demand and, all the more so, in the presence of external factors which are
out of our control, the situation could become critical and severely impact our domestic
markets in terms of consumption and prices.
Prudence is therefore compulsory in forecasting the business evolution for 2012, a year
which, for the SSC Division, is still characterised by a demand that is out of line with the current offer and where attention to overall operating costs is of prime importance in reducing
the firm’s break-even point, given that volumes and business margins will be under pressure, due to the structural excess of competition present in the Italian distribution market.
Automotive Market
With regards to the Passenger Cars market (“PSC”), registered number plates fell by
8.2% within the EU27 in the first two months of 2012 compared to the analogous period for the previous year and confirming, therefore, a weakness in demand, as already
apparent from the last months of 2011, even if there are significant differences within
35
each country; Germany, UK and Spain, for example, haven’t been affected by the drop,
whilst France (-20%) and Italy (-17%) have fully confirmed the difficulties that became
apparent throughout 2011. The performance of the main clients for the CLN Group in
Europe show a drop in the number of registered number plates for the first two months
of 2012 compared with the analogous period of the previous year with Fiat Group
(-16%), PSA (-15.8%), Renault (-24.6%)and BMW (-3.4%).
Even the Light Commercial Vehicles sector (“LCV”) in Europe retreated over the first two
months of 2012 (-9.2%), once more with marked diversity amongst the community members: Italy -31,5%, Spain -22,8%, France -3,4%, UK -20,3% whilst Germany doesn’t appear to show any signs of significant variations compared with the previous financial year.
Client performances, within the CLN Group operating within the LCV market in Europe,
show good results compared to Q1 2010 for Renault (+9.8%), Fiat Group (+7.5%) and
PSA (+10%).
In view of the above, it is understandable how the financial year for 2012 will present
uncertainties in the evolution of the demand in Europe with significant and marked
differences between the different countries/carmakers /model/groups. Within such a
context, Automotive Division will continue to pursue its own strategies directed at client and geographical diversification, product positioning for market segmentation and
modelling, the consolidation of efficiencies carried out in 2009-2011 and the awaited
results from reorganisation activities.
Further drive should come from the initiatives taken in new markets in which the Automotive Division was not previously present (South Africa in particular) and from which
an important contribution in consolidation and growth is expected in the medium-term,
whilst groundwork is laid for other future international initiatives (of prominence is the
Joint Venture agreement recently signed with Shougang in China).
Within this setting the Wheels Division expects to have substantial confirmations of
the 2011 positive performances reached in Romania and Poland, whilst a contraction is expected in France; distress will linger in the Italian units, still in the process of
reorganisation and with volumes of business that are insufficient to achieve financial
equilibrium.
The previously outlined path to internationalisation is in fact set to continue, in particular in Turkey through the Joint Venture Agreement signed with Jantsa and in China with
the Joint Venture Agreement signed with Baosteel.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 december 2010
1. CORE BUSINESS
CLN S.p.A. is a joint stock company duly incorporated and existing under the laws of
Italy. CLN S.p.A. and its Subsidiaries (“the Group”) operate in 16 countries with 3 diverse business lines: Service Centers (steel coil slitting and steel sheet cut to lenght in
general), Presswork and Steel Wheel Production.
Related party transactions form part of the Group’s normal day-to-day business. These
are mainly of a commercial nature and are regulated as per market conditions.
2. FORM AND CONTENT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements for 2011 have been prepared as required by Section
III of Italian legislative decree 127/1991, the subsequent variations and interpretations introduced by the Italian legislative decree no. 6 of January 17, 2003 (the Corporate Governance
Reform Act), as subsequent amendments integrated in the accounting principles of the Italian Accounting Profession (Consiglio Nazionale dei Dottori Commercialisti e dei Ragionieri),
the Italian Accounting Board (Organismo Italiano di Contabilità) and the International Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (I.A.S.B.).
These have been applied exercising prudence and on a going concern basis while
also taking into account the economic function of the asset or liability component in
consideration.
The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated balance sheet, the
consolidated income statement and these accompanying Notes.
The more significant post-balance sheet events, illustrated in the Report on Operations
section, form an integral part of these notes.
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared using the
global integration method and include the Consolidated Financial Statements of CLN
S.p.A (parent company) together with Italian and overseas companies where the parent company holds, either directly or indirectly, majority voting rights.
The Consolidated Perimeter is attached to the these Supplementary Notes.
Companies included in the Group, along with their registered business name and address, declared strategic intent, share capital and percentage of direct or indirect ownership are listed in an attachment to these Supplementary Notes.
51
The financial statements in the consolidation all refer to the same date of closure of the
parent company.
No situations occurred in the Consolidate Financial Statements requiring derogation
under Article 2423.4 of the Italian Civil Code.
Consolidation Principles
The Financial Statements of Companies within the Consolidated Perimeter, drafted
and approved by the respective board of directors and amended where necessary
to conform with the accounting policies adopted by the parent company, have been
included in the Group Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ending 31 December 2011.
The income statements of foreign subsidiaries denominated in foreign currency have
been converted into Euro at the respective average rate of exchange for the year
whereas the related balance sheets have been converted into Euro at the exchange
rate prevailing at the end of 2011.
Exchange differences, resulting from the conversion of opening shareholders’ equity
at current rates of exchange and at year-end rates of exchange, have been registered
as consolidated equity reserves.
The rates of exchange applied are reported in the Supplementary Notes under the
heading “Other information”.
As summarized below, all subsidiary undertakings included in the consolidation
perimeter have been consolidated using the line by line method summarized as
follows:
a. assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of subsidiaries, regardless of shareholdings have been included in the consolidated financial statements, after eliminating
the book value of the investments held by the parent company, or by other consolidated companies against the related shareholders’ equity. Minority interests in
the net equity and the net result for the year of the consolidated subsidiaries are
shown separately in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated income
statement.
b.The difference between the purchase consideration paid and the net result for
the year of the companies acquired during the year is taken to the consolidated
financial statements. Where applicable, any differences are allocated to the assets and liabilities of the company being consolidated. Any residual difference is
treated as follows:
52
. if positive, this is recognized on the asset side of the consolidated balance sheet
under line account “consolidation difference”, and is amortized at a constant rate
over the period of expected future risks and benefits;.
if negative, this is recognized within consolidated net equity under line account
“consolidation reserve”, or, should future losses be forecasted, under consolidation reserve for risks and future charges”.
c. Elimination of receivables, payables and revenues arising between consolidated
companies not involving unrelated parties.
The following have also been eliminated:
capital gains arising from or relating to fixed assets transferred among consolidated
companies;
intragroup profits, if significant, arising from transactions between consolidated companies relating to assets transferred that continue to remain as inventory with the acquirer;
devaluation and recovery of investments held by consolidated companies including
intragroup receivables and dividends.
.
.
.
.
3. ASSESSMENT CRITERIA AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The evaluation criteria, as required by Article 2426 of the Italian Civil Code, adopted in
preparing the 2011 Consolidated Financial Statement, and unchanged from 2010, are
as follows:
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at purchase price or production cost. Cost includes accessory expenses, as well as the indirect and direct costs that can be reasonably attributed to the relevant asset. In no case the cost incurred, as defined above, exceeds
the recoverable amount.
Depreciation plans have various durations depending on the estimated economic usefulness of the related asset.
Depreciated intangible assets are registered at their depreciated value, and, with the
exception of goodwill, cannot be maintained in subsequent financial statements when
the reasons for the adjustment ceases to exist. Where the devaluation is of an extraordinary nature, production reconversion, restructuring or production resizing the assets
are registered as extraordinary liabilities.
53
Tangible Fixed Assets (Property, Plant and Equipment)
Tangible fixed assets are stated at purchase price or production cost, adjusted in some
cases as a result of the application of specific monetary revaluation laws or gains arising from the difference between the cost of new acquisitions and purchased net equity,
less accumulated depreciation.
Tangible fixed assets, the expected useful life of which is limited in time, are depreciated systematically each period on the basis of economic/technical rates determined
according to the remaining possibilities of utilizing the related asset.
The depreciation rates applied in the year under review are as follows:
Industrial property
Plant and Machinery
Industrial and commercial equipment
Other
3 to 10%
6.7 to 17.5%
5 to 25%
12 to 25%
The assets are depreciated as from the period in which these enter into service. For
assets acquired in the financial period, the annual depreciation is taken at half (50%)
the regular rate, based on the assumption that the depreciation charge thus taken
does not differ significantly from the depreciation charge determined as from the moment in which the asset is made available and ready for use.
In the case of a permanent impairment in value, regardless of the depreciation already
provided, the asset is written down accordingly; if, in subsequent periods, the reasons
for the write-down cease to apply, the original value of the asset is reinstated. Should
the write-downs result from permanent impairment losses arising as a result of transactions exceptional in nature, or production reconversion, restructuring or production
downsizing, these are classified as extraordinary expenses.
Ordinary maintenance costs are charged wholly against the consolidated income
statement. Maintenance costs of a betterment nature are attributed to the fixed asset
to which they relate, and are depreciated in relation to the remaining possibilities of
utilizing that asset.
Not encompassed within the value of tangible fixed assets are financial charges incurred in the purchase or construction thereof.
Shown separately are payments on account and tangibles under construction, as yet
not entered into service at the consolidated balance sheet date.
Leasing arrangements are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements under the finance method whereby the capital value of assets, including the portion of
54
lease rentals on inception encompassed within “prepaid expenses” in the statutory accounts, is taken to “tangible fixed assets”, whilst lease rentals payable by way of principal are taken to “non-current financial payables”. The lease rentals accounted for in
the statutory accounts are replaced by depreciation determined in relation to the useful
life expectancy of the assets held under lease, classifying the related interest expense
under “financial charges” and the related deferred taxation provisioned.
Notwithstanding general accounting principles generally accepted in Italy and where:
Permitted
(i)by specific monetary revaluation laws, or
(ii)deemed to portray more fairly and truly the values of land and buildings,
The Group has recorded revaluations (in accordance with the thresholds permitted by
law), with the corresponding income statement item being equity reserves. No reassessed amounts are in excess of recoverable amounts.
Financial Fixed Assets
Not included in the consolidation are idle subsidiaries (in start-up) insofar as their impact on aggregate assets, liabilities, net financial position and the result reported by
the Group is insignificant.
Investments in associates are measured and accounted for under the equity method; the positive (negative) difference between the value determined under the equity
method and the carrying amount stated in the previous year’s accounts, for the portion
arising from profits (losses) is taken to a specific income statement line. Also taken into
account when accounting for associates under the equity method are the investments
held by the latter in subsidiary or associate undertakings.
Investments in other enterprises are instead carried at cost, and possibly reduced to
reflect any permanent impairment in value.
Receivables are stated at their presumed realizable value.
Securities are stated at cost, and possibly devalued to reflect any permanent impairment in value.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of purchase or production cost, determined in
accordance with the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method of inventory valuation, and presumed realizable value based on market conditions. The valuation of inventory at
current cost would not have been significantly different from the FIFO valuation.
55
Manufacturing costs include the cost of raw materials, direct costs and the portion of
indirect costs that can be attributed to the cost of production. Obsolete and slow-moving inventories are devaluated on the basis of their possible utilization or saleability
Receivables
Receivables classified under Current Assets are stated at their nominal value. More
pointedly, trade receivables are devalued to their presumed realizable value, as required under Article 2426 of the Italian Civil Code, by provisioning adequate funds to
an appropriate reserve.
The Group enters into factoring and/or securitization transactions involving the sale
and securitization of its trade receivables. The Group also securitizes and sells certain
trade receivables “with recourse”, whereby the receivables sold remain on the asset
side of the consolidated balance sheet, as matched on the other side of the consolidated balance sheet by a financial liability for an equal amount. In this case, no receivables are derecognized.
Accruals and Prepayments
Accruals and prepayments include the portion of revenues and expenses covering two or
more periods, in accordance with the matching or accrual basis of accounting. Under this
basis, the effects of transactions and other events are recognized when they occur (and
not as cash or its equivalent is received or paid) and they are recorded in the accounting
records and reported in the financial statements of the periods to which they relate.
The matching of costs with revenues is a process in which expenses are recognized in
the income statement on the basis of a direct association between the costs incurred
and the earning of specific items of income. This process involves the simultaneous or
combined recognition of revenues and expenses that result directly and jointly from the
same transaction or other events.
The adopted evaluation criteria reflect the application of the general principle of assigning revenues and expenses to the accounting period of reference.
Dividends Payable to Shareholders
Dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognized as a liability in the Group’s
financial statements in the period in which the dividends are declared at the relevant
Shareholders’ Meeting.
56
Reserves for Risks and Charges
Reserves for risks and charges are provided to cover certain or probable losses or
liabilities for which the exact value and effective date are not determinable at the yearend. The reserves represent the best estimate possible based on the information currently available.
Reserve for taxation, and deferred taxation is also included under this title.
Reserve for Employee Severance Indemnities
As accrued by the Italian companies of the Group, the reserve for employee severance
indemnities is provided to cover the full liability due to employees in conformity with current legislation, national labour contracts and payroll agreements prevailing in Italy.
Law No. 296 enacted on 27 December 2006 (Italian Financial Act 2007) introduced
pension reform regulations (establishment of agreed-upon supplementary pension
fund) in respect of Severance Indemnity (TFR) allocations maturing after January
1, 2007
The effects of the reform include the following:
TFR allocations maturing up to 31 December 2006 remain as a book reserve deposited with the company;
TFR allocations maturing as of 1 January 2007 are, as designated by the employee,
transferred or directed to:
a)Agreed upon second-pillar pension funds; or
b)Left with the company, which transfers the TFR allocations to the National Social
Insurance Institute (INPS).
At the consolidated balance sheet level, “Reserve for employee severance indemnities” represents the residual balance on the reserve existent on 31 December 2011;
classified under “Amounts due to provident and social security institutions” is the liability accrued on 31 December 2011 in respect of TFR allocations as yet to be transferred
to the pension funds or provident institutes.
.
.
Payables
Payables are stated at their nominal value.
57
Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies
The effective contingencies, commitments and guarantees outstanding at the consolidated balance sheet date are reported in the memorandum accounts.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is accounted for in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting, less
returns, trade discounts, rebates and premiums. Revenue from the sale of goods is
recognized at the moment that title passes to a customer, which generally coincides
with shipping or consignment. Revenue from the provision of services is recognized at
the moment that the services are rendered.
Cost and Expense Recognition
Costs and expenses are recognized in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting.
Interest Income, Interest Expense, Other Income and Expenses
Interest income and interest expense, and, not least, other income and expenses, are
recognized and included in the accounts, along with the related accruals and deferrals,
in accordance with the accrual basis of accounting.
Taxes
a. Income taxes are applied according to the tax laws and regulations prevailing in the
countries in which the Group companies operate.
b. As of 2004, the Group’s Italian companies have elected to adhere to the National Tax
Consolidation program pursuant to Article 117/129 of the Italian Tax Code (T.U.I.R).
c. The company CLN S.p.A. acts as a consolidating entity and determines a single
taxable base for the group of companies adhering to the tax consolidation program,
thereby benefitting from the possibility to – set off – taxable income with tax losses
with a single income tax return.
d. Each company adhering to the tax consolidation program deposits its entire taxable income with the tax consolidating entity, recording an account payable, for an
amount equating the “IRES” corporation tax payable, the companies contributing
tax losses register an account receivable vis-à-vis with the consolidating entity, for
58
an amount equating the “IRES” corporation tax effectively offset by the Group.
e. Furthermore, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are determined for the more
significant consolidation transactions and all temporary differences between the consolidated assets and the consolidated liabilities and the corresponding amounts for the
purposes of taxation shown in the statutory accounts of the consolidated companies.
f. In particular, deferred tax assets, classified under “deferred tax assets”, are recognized only if their future recovery is certain. Deferred tax liabilities, classified under
“reserve for taxation, including deferred taxation”, are not recognized if there is small
possibility that a future liability will rise.
Furthermore, in agreement with benchmark accounting standards, a deferred tax asset is recognized for the carry forward of the unused tax losses to the extent that it is
probable that the future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax
losses can be utilized.
Dividends from Associates
Dividends distributed by participated Companies not included in the consolidation are
accounted for in the year they were deliberated on.

The South African real estate companies (Claudlynn Investment, Rensor Property e
IG Investment) and the Italian company Aviscali are not consolidated using the full
method because the consolidation would not have generated a significant impact.
Regarding associate undertakings:
As far as MWSA is concerned, the purchase of controlling shares was performed
during the year; therefore the company has been consolidated using the line by line
method in the consolidated 2011 financial statements.
The remaining write downs/revaluations of equity investments derive solely from
the losses/profits reported and included on a pro-rated basis in the consolidated accounts.
.
.
Prorena Ortolano S.r.l. and Itla S.r.l., though holding a 51% interest, have not been fully
included in the consolidation due to the existing partnership governance rules stipulating equal joint control. Both companies have therefore been evaluated using the equity
method as per normal practice in all cases of joint control. Highlights of the equity and
revenue figures for the year ending 31 December 2011 for both companies are shown
in the following table (all amounts are in €/000):

Itla S.r.l. (€ 0.75 million) regarding financing arrangements signed in January 2010 set
to mature in December 2012.
Other Items
Other items primarily include Italian Government Securities (€ 19 million) held by
the parent company, CLN S.p.A. The securities referred to above are recognized in
the consolidated financial statements at cost, and are considered to be long-term
investments.

Inventories shown are net of the provision for the write down of stock amounting to €
21,131.00 (€ 16,304.00 on 31 December 2010). The fund covers the lower value of
raw materials no longer used in current production as well as finished goods, and obsolete or slow-moving ancillary materials in stock while also aligning the value of overall stock to that of the market when this latter is lower. The following table illustrates the
changes to the depreciation fund for stock between 2010 and 2011. End of year figures
are to be deemed congruent.

On 31 December 2011, stock devaluation provision was set at € 15.5 million to cover
raw materials, € 1.3 million to cover semi-finished goods, and € 4.3 million to cover
finished goods.
The increase of provision refers mainly to the SSC Division’s steel stock (equal to
approximately € 5 million) and is aimed at realigning the reserve with current market
prices.
Contract work in progress is primarily related to equipment and die costs sustained by
the Automotive Division with regard to preparation for the production of new models.
When production begins all new equipment and dies are billed to customers, while
the costs, held in suspense in inventory during production, are released to the income
statement. The relative margin is spread over five years (presumed average produc-
67
tion term) in order to allocate to each period the effective net profit on this activity.
Financially, the impact is largely covered by advance payments collected from the relative customers, and classified in the accounts under advances.

5.1 REVENUES
Revenues from Sales
Throughout the year 2011, the CLN Group reached sales revenues totalling € 1.892.373
thousand.
The Group is subdivided into different operating sectors and operates in different geographical regions. The breakdown of revenues for each sector and region is as follows:

521,943
930,176
856,888
1,892,373
1,700,886
389,733
322,055
As for the sales revenue in other EU countries, the increase in the year 2011 is mainly
due to France (+33 million) and Germany (+32 million); on the contrary looking at sales
revenue from other non EU countries, the increase in the year 2011 is mainly attributed
to South Africa (+50 million) and Turkey (+ 11 million).
82
Other Revenue and Income
On 31 December 2011, other income totalled € 200.864 thousand (€ 219.463 thousand on 31 December 2010):

The significant increase in revenues from scrap sales partly derives from the larger
South African perimeter, and also from the increase price of scraps. The marked decrease, with respect to 2010, in revenues from sales of tooling and dies arises from the
significant tooling activity done during the year by the Automotive Division’s French,
German and South American subsidiaries and not yet invoiced to the customers.

5.5 INCOME TAXES

IRES corporation tax or equivalent taxes for the foreign companies and, for the Italian
companies only, IRAP regional tax on manufacturing activities.
Details are shown as follows (amounts in thousand/Euro):
IRES and other Company taxes

(4,166)

If we exclude the IRAP regional tax charge, the tax rate for the Group in 2011 equalled
47.5%, therefore very high. Devaluation of consolidation differences, extraordinary
provisions and impaired investments (€ 9 million, non-tax deductible – estimated tax
impact € 2.4 million) were mainly responsible. Also responsible are the permanent tax
adjustments in Italy (€ 8 million – estimated tax impact € 2.1 million) and the fact that
no provision has been made for deferred tax assets on losses originating from Russia
for the year (estimated tax impact € 2 million) in the absence of reasonable certainty
regarding future recoverability.
5.6 COMPENSATIONS DUE TO LEGAL ADVISORS
Compensation fees due to the auditors is subdivided as following:
Audit fees for the audit of the consolidated financial statements: for FY 2011 amounted to Euro 34.000(*)
