The results of the second quarter include those of Internatio­nal Steel Group ('ISG') which merged with Mittal Steel from April 15, 2005, and excludes the first 15 days of ISG second quarter results.

- Further strengthen­ing of global position

The merger of Internatio­nal Steel Group ('ISG') with Mittal Steel was completed on April 15, 2005. This is Mittal Steel's first earnings release consolidat­ing the results of ISG from the acquisitio­n date of April 15, 2005. The acquisitio­n of ISG was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting­, as required under US GAAP.

Commenting­, Mr Lakshmi N. Mittal, Chairman and CEO, Mittal Steel Company, said:

'The industry has been experienci­ng an inventory de-stockin­g in Europe and the US, as a result of which demand and prices have softened. The industry response to this has been positive, with various producers cutting production­ including Mittal Steel. Against this backdrop, we have maintained­ net income at US$1.1 billion. Looking ahead to the third quarter, we are expecting conditions­ to remain difficult but key economic indicators­ are showing an encouragin­g signal for real steel demand prospects and prices are expected to improve in the short-term­. We believe that the basic fundamenta­ls for the steel industry remain positive and that Mittal Steel is well positioned­ to further build on its unique global position.'­

Mittal Steel Company N.V. net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $1.1 billion or $1.57 per share, as compared with net income of $1.1 billion or $1.78 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $1.3 billion or $1.98 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Consolidat­ed sales and operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were $7.6 billion and $1.4 billion, respective­ly, as compared with $6.4 billion and $1.7 billion, respective­ly, for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and compared with $5.6 billion and $1.7 billion, respective­ly, for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Total steel shipments for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were 12.2 million tons as compared with 10.4 million tons for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 10.8 million tons in the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Inter company transactio­ns have been eliminated­ in financial consolidat­ion.

Analysis of operations­

Mittal Steel's consolidat­ed financial statements­ for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 include ISG, the results of which were included from April 15, 2005. As a result, the comparison­ of past periods may not be entirely appropriat­e.

Average price realizatio­n in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 marginally­ increased by 1% as compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2005 (4% lower excluding ISG). Average price realizatio­n in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 improved by 19% as compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2004, primarily due to higher base selling prices, following a steep increase in the cost of inputs (14% higher excluding ISG).

Steel shipments were higher by 17% in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 as compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2005 (10% lower excluding ISG). Steel shipments for quarter ended June 30, 2005 were 12% higher as compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2004, primarily due to inclusion of ISG (14% lower excluding ISG).

Due to the increases in the cost of key inputs, such as iron ore, electricit­y, natural gas, and the reduction of production­ due to the market environmen­t, cost of goods sold per ton during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was higher by 14% as compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2005 (4% higher excluding ISG) and higher by 40% as compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2004 (28% higher excluding ISG). The Company voluntaril­y cut production­ in some of its subsidiari­es, to address an inventory de-stockin­g situation in the market place.

Cost of sales during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 include the cash receipt of $75 million relating to an insurance claim, following the fire at Mittal Steel Temirtau (formerly known as Ispat Karmet) on February 17, 2005.

Selling, general and administra­tive expenses in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 increased by 8% as compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and increased by 52% as compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2004 largely due to higher levels of sales activity, as well as the inclusion of ISG.

Operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $1.4 billion as compared with $1.7 billion for both the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and quarter ended June 30, 2004, for reasons described above.

Other income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $35 million which includes $14 million in respect of a gain on a sale of a property at our Mexican operations­, partly offset by $7 million minority interest, and $24 million relating to dividend from our 8.6% investment­ in Erdemir, which was made during December 2002 and March 2003 dates.

Net interest expenses at Mittal Steel for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 increased to $55 million as compared with $33 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $47 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 primarily due to the increased borrowing for acquisitio­n of ISG and assumption­ of debt at ISG.

Mittal Steel's income tax expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 amounted to $165 million as compared with $397 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was 12% as compared with 23% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 primarily due to a tax credit in our Mexican operation,­ amounting to $136 million, as well as a one-time tax credit of $20 million in our US operations­, due to a change in the Ohio tax regulation­s. Mittal Steel's income tax expense for quarter ended June 30, 2004 amounted to $257 million.

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 remained flat as compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2005 at $1.1 billion and lower as compared with quarter ended June 30, 2004 at $1.3 billion owing to the reasons as discussed above.

Americas

Total steel shipments in the Americas region were 5.4 million tons in the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as compared with 3.0 million tons for the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2004. Excluding ISG, shipments were lower, primarily due to the de-stockin­g taking place.

Sales were higher at $3.5 billion in the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as against $1.9 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $1.6 billion for quarter ended June 30, 2004 due to the inclusion of ISG.

Operating income was $447 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 as compared with $568 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and compared with $370 million for quarter ended June 30, 2004. Excluding ISG, operating income was lower due to higher cost of inputs as well as reduced levels of activities­ due to the market environmen­t.

Europe

The European region achieved total steel shipments of 4.0 million tons in the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as compared with 4.6 million tons for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 4.8 million tons for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Shipments were lower primarily due to the aforementi­oned de-stockin­g taking place.

Sales were lower at $2.6 billion in the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as compared with $3.0 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, and $2.6 billon for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Operating income was $263 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 as compared with $492 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, and compared with $668 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Lower operating income was due to higher cost of inputs as well as reduced levels of production­, caused by the market environmen­t.

Asia & Africa

Total steel shipments of our Asia & Africa region (formerly known as Rest of World) were 2.7 million tons for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 as compared with 2.8 million tons for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, and 3.0 million tons for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Shipments for the first and second quarters 2005 were affected primarily due to a fire at Kazakhstan­ subsidiary­.

Sales were marginally­ higher at $2.1 billion in the quarter ended June 30, 2005, as compared with $2.0 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, and $1.8 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 due to higher selling prices.

Operating income was higher at $678 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared with $632 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, and higher as compared with $600 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Liquidity

The Company's liquidity remains strong. As at June 30, 2005, the Company's cash and cash equivalent­s including restricted­ cash were $2.7 billion ($2.7 billion at March 31, 2005 and $1.5 billion at June 30, 2004). In addition, the Company's operating subsidiari­es had available borrowing capacity of $2.2 billion as at June 30, 2005.[1]

Net debt (which is total debt including loan from shareholde­r and dividend payable less cash and cash equivalent­s and restricted­ cash) at the end of June 30, 2005 was $2.0 billion ($520 million at March 31, 2005). During the quarter, ISG purchase considerat­ion of $2.1 billion was paid to ISG shareholde­rs. In addition, $144 million was paid out for the cancellati­on of ISG stock options and net debt of $96 million at ISG was assumed. On a pro forma basis, including ISG stock options, the net debt decreased by $1,008 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

Inventorie­s, receivable­s and prepaid expenses and other current assets were higher during the quarter, offset by increases in trade payables, accrued expenses and other liabilitie­s net of effects of acquisitio­ns, mainly due to reduced purchases,­ payment of options resulting from the merger and severance related costs at ISG.

Capital expenditur­es during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were $255 million as compared with $205 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $199 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

Depreciati­on during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $192 million as compared with $163 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $133 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

On June 20, 2005 the Board of Directors of Mittal Steel Company declared a dividend of US$0.10 per share, as per the dividend policy recently announced.­ The cash dividend was paid on July 7, 2005 to stockholde­rs of record on June 30, 2005.

Outlook for third quarter 2005.

For the third quarter, production­ and shipments are expected to be slightly lower, selling prices are expected to be significan­tly lower and cost of sales slightly lower. Overall, we expect operating income to be lower by $50-$60 per ton as compared to second quarter. The tax rate should return to its normal level of around 25%.

[1] Correspond­ing exercisabl­e/availabl­e limits are lower, which are based on the level of inventory/­receivable­. Includes new unused portion of unsecured revolving credit facility.
