Positive impact of cost reductions

Significant, selective footprint adjustments from Q4 2008, particularly in

Precious Metals Products & Catalysts and Element Six Abrasives

Overall workforce reduction of more than 800 in fully consolidated companies in 2009 (~8%) + overall workforce reduction of more than 900 in associates

Job creation continued in growth areas

Wherever possible flexible measures were implemented. Of the 1,000 people formerly on temporary unemployment, the majority has now returned to work

The footprint adjustments have had a significant positive impact

on the financial

performance in H2 2009

Page 7: No Slide Title...Revenues and earnings impacted by the economic downturn, although signs of gradual recovery were evident in H2 • Revenues of € 1.7 billion (€ 2.1 billion in

7

Continued investment in growth projects

R&D spend of some € 136 million,

representing 6.9% of revenues

Includes € 8.9 million of capitalised development costs

In Automotive Catalysts, efficiency improvements led to lower development and testing costs

R&D efforts were stepped up in precious metals refining, rechargeable battery materials and electro-

optic materials, partly offset by reduced efforts in other units

Capex

reached € 190 million

Significant recovery in profitability in H2, mainly due to impact of cost reductions in Element Six Abrasives and improved sales in Umicore businesses

Sales of rechargeable battery materials picked up in H2 but with a less positive mix

Other cobalt activities also performed better in H2

Steady performance in Electro-Optic Materials

Increased development efforts in Thin Film Products for rotary targets

Precious Metals Products & Catalysts

Automotive production improved in H2 and reached 57 million units world-wide in 2009 (versus 65 million in 2008)

Combination of improved revenues and cost reduction measures had a significant positive impact in Automotive Catalysts in H2

Cost reduction measures supported Technical Materials’

performance in H2

Gold recycling activities offset some of the fall in demand for jewellery materials

Precious Metals Services

Overall very strong results for 2009, with ROCE at 59%

As anticipated, H2 margins reflected the weaker supply environment in early 2009

Gradual reduction of the benefits from contracts secured at higher metals price levels

Intake of end-of-life materials lower, especially for spent automotive catalysts

Metals Management activities performed well, but below the exceptional levels of 2008

Zinc Specialties

2009 performance was down on 2008 in both business units; H2 performance was down on H1, reflecting seasonal trends and a weaker year-on-

year business environment

In Zinc Chemicals, the recycling activities performed well, benefiting from supply contracts priced in prior years; low demand for zinc oxides and powders despite end of destocking

In Building Products sales volumes stabilized in France and Benelux. Other European markets remained depressed

Umicore expects recurring EBIT to show a significant improvement

from the levels of 2009

The impact of the cost reduction measures taken to date should be complemented by a gradual recovery of revenues in many product-

related businesses

Capital expenditures and R&D spend are expected to be at similar

levels to those of 2009
