   voestalpine sets clear growth targets in attractive future markets

   voestalpine is continuing to pursue its strategic course and to focus on
   value-added growth in high-yield processing segments. At today’s Capital
   Markets Day, held during InnoTrans in Berlin, the Group is providing
   insight into its strategic plans and specific growth prospects. The focus
   lies on the Railway Systems business segment, whose revenue is expected to
   increase from its current level of around EUR 2.2 billion to approximately
   EUR 3 billion by 2030/31. Market growth is being driven by the global
   trend toward sustainable rail mobility and the associated extensive
   investments in upgrading existing and building new rail infrastructure. In
   addition to rail infrastructure, the Group plans to continue
   systematically expanding operations in its Aerospace, Warehouse & Rack
   Solutions, and Tubes & Sections business segments.

   voestalpine focuses on value-added growth in technologically advanced
   sectors in which it enjoys leading market positions and has extensive
   expertise and long-standing customer relationships. Railway Systems is a
   prime example of this strategy: the business segment combines materials
   and processing expertise with innovative system solutions, digitalization,
   and comprehensive services to support high-performance rail
   infrastructure. Since its initial public offering in 1995, voestalpine has
   increased the share of Group turnover generated through value-added
   segments from around 20% to 45%. In future, this share is expected to
   continue to rise, particularly through growth in such segments as Railway
   Systems, Aerospace, Warehouse & Rack Solutions, and Tubes & Sections. At
   the same time, the Group is driving the gradual decarbonization of steel
   production through its greentec steel transformation program. The planned
   start-up of the first electric arc furnaces in Linz and Donawitz in the
   first half of 2027 marks the next major step along this path.

   Digitalization and modernization are drivers of change

   “Rising global investments in the expansion and modernization of rail
   networks, new transport corridors, and increasing demand for
   digitalization are opening up attractive prospects for voestalpine Railway
   Systems and creating significant and sustained demand for its high-quality
   products,” says Herbert Eibensteiner, CEO of voestalpine AG. Additional
   growth opportunities are emerging in India due to extensive investments in
   new high-speed rail, freight transport, and urban mobility projects.

   “There is growing demand for integrated solutions that combine
   infrastructure, digitalization, and services. As a leading full-service
   provider in the field of railway systems, we offer rail and turnout
   systems, signaling solutions, digital applications, and services—all from
   a single source. It is precisely this holistic approach that constitutes a
   key competitive advantage for voestalpine Railway Systems, which supports
   its customers throughout the entire life cycle,” says Franz Kainersdorfer,
   Member of the Management Board of voestalpine AG and Head of the Metal
   Engineering Division.

   The company’s strong market position is also underscored by recent major
   contracts, most recently the Rail Baltica project with a value of EUR 470
   million. At InnoTrans, voestalpine Railway Systems also showcases
   integrated solutions for high-speed, freight, and urban transit networks,
   as well as digital monitoring and diagnostic systems designed to improve
   maintenance efficiency and increase rail system availability.

   Focus on growth and value creation

   “Our investment decisions are guided by clear priorities: a sound capital
   structure, gradual decarbonization, value-enhancing growth, and ensuring
   our shareholders share in the company’s success. Railway Systems combines
   attractive growth prospects with a strong market position, a resilient
   business model, and a high return on capital, thereby making a significant
   contribution to the Group’s long-term value creation,” says Gerald Mayer,
   CFO of voestalpine AG.
