Interim management report
Report on the economic position
Summary
After 9 months remaining on growth track with significant progress in earnings
- Group and continuing operations with order intake, sales, and adjusted EBIT clearly higher yearon-year
- Highest 9-month order intake since start of Strategic Way Forward
- Capital goods businesses and materials businesses with double-digit growth rates overall
- Components Technology and Elevator Technology with new record highs
- Capital goods business overall and all materials businesses with sales growth
- Group and continuing operations with adjusted EBIT significantly higher year-on-year:
- Elevator Technology with continued earnings and margin improvement
- Temporary decline at Industrial Solutions ňlower-margin project milestones and partial underutilization'n
- Steel Europe with strong margin expansion
- "impact": €670 million EBIT effects increase efficiency in first 9 months. Also:
- Further measures of around €400 million to reduce general and administrative costs at Corporate and in all business areas by end of fiscal2019 / 2020
- Expansion of efficiency program at Industrial Solutions to lower costs by a three-digit million euro amount on top of measures previously initiated
- Group's net income in reporting period impacted by negative income effect in 2nd quarter from sale of CSA; 3rd-quarter net income clearly positive and higher year-on-year
- As expected, free cash flow of Group and continuing operations clearly negative in first 9 months due to increase in net working capital
- Sale of the Brazilian steel mill CSA to Ternium approved without restrictions by the Brazilian competition authority CADE on August 1, approval not yet legally binding; closing of the transaction expected before end of fiscal year; clearly positive effects on net financial debt and gearing
- Sales and earnings forecast for Group and continuing operations affirmed. FCF before M&A now expected to be negative in mid to higher three-digit million euro range
- Due to the earlier than expected closing of the sale of CSA to Ternium in the 4th quarter and absence therefore of the anticipated NWC release by CSA towards the end of the fiscal year. The absence of this NWC release results in a correspondingly higher purchase price. This is neutral for expected net financial debt and FCF overall but will burden FCF before M&A
- Key milestones in product innovation and digitization support long-term growth prospects
- MULTI, world's first rope-free, sideways-moving elevator, unveiled in test tower; first customer order received for MULTI
- 100,000th MAX unit installed, elevator sector's first predictive maintenance solution
- In-house developed IIoTňIndustrial Internet of Things'n platform "toii" connects machinery at Materials Services
Macro and sector environment
Global economy has gained momentum – outlook remains marked by great uncertainty
- Compared with start of fiscal year, slight acceleration in global economic growth despite high political uncertainty
- Industrialized countries: Continued, faster upturn thanks to continuing expansionary monetary policy and stabilization of economy in the USA and Europe
- Emerging economies: Increasing momentum and end of recession in Brazil and Russia; growth in China in 2017 level with prior year
- But risks and uncertainties for global economy remain exceptionally highňgeopolitical flashpoints, impact of US economic policy and interest rate liftoff in USA, Brexit negotiations, volatility of oil and raw material prices, high volatility in Chinese financial and real estate sectors'n

Automotive
- Slight growth in global sales and production of cars and light trucks in 2017 from high prior-year level
- Europe: Outlook for 2017 slightly positive in virtually all markets
- USA: Significantly weaker production, particularly in car sector, very high inventories
- Mexico: Steep increase, among other things ramp-up of new production plants, particularly for exports
- Brazil: Economic and political conditions remain uncertain; production at low level
- China: Sales and production of cars with double-digit growth in 2016, benefiting in part from pull-forward effects due to reduced tax breaks; further growth expected in 2017 with reduced government incentives
- Heavy trucks: Increase in global production expected for 2017, driven mainly by China; Europe stable; NAFTA Class 8 showing first signs of market recovery; Brazil weak
Machinery
- Germany: Forecast for 2017 raised significantly, in particular demand from abroad expected to increase
- USA: Continued upturn in investment in oil and gas production
- China: Growth in 2017 to slow slightly at a higher level than previously expected; lower government fiscal incentives for infrastructure and state-owned companies; however, planned transformation to high-tech nation should keep growth at a solid level
Construction
- Germany: Further slight increase in growth expected in 2017; driver remains housing construction, but also public sector and commercial construction
- USA: Continued solid growth albeit at lower level, potential additional stimulus from new administration's fiscal measures
- China and India: In China government measures to cool down real estate market taking effect in 2017; continuing urbanization to provide further important impetus in India

- Global finished steel demand rising faster (+3%) than expected at start of year with economic growth accelerating in 2017
- EU carbon flat steel market up slightly year-on-year in first six months of 2017 with further pressure from imports: lower volumes from China and Russia but significantly higher imports from other third countries, particularly India and Turkey
- Market environment remains extremely challenging, particularly on account of global overcapacities, increasing export risks, and continued highly volatile raw material prices

1) Excluding material currency and portfolio effects
Order intake in all capital goods businesses was clearly higher year-on-year in the first 9 months, supported partly by positive exchange-rate effects.
Components Technology
- Car components: Growth in particular in axle assembly, damping systems and camshaft modules; positive trend in China and Western Europe more than offset slowdown in the USA and continuing weak demand in Brazil
- Components for heavy trucks: Market improvement in China, Europe solid, further upturn in USA in 3rd quarter, Brazil still weak
- Industrial components: Growth in demand for construction equipment components against weak prior year, signs of recovery over last two quarters; higher order intake also for wind energy and machinery components
Elevator Technology
- Order intake at new record high, driven by major projects; continued high level of orders in hand ň€5.2 billion excl. service'n
- Positive trend in the USA, Brazil, and South Korea; major infrastructure projects in Germany and Turkey; China lower year-on-yearňmainly due to negative exchange rate effects and high price pressure'n
Industrial Solutions
- Clear year-on-year increase in first 9 months and in 3rd quarter confirms turnaround in order intake and strong project pipeline
- Marine Systems: Major submarine order in 2nd quarter; nominated as exclusive strategic partner for Norwegian/German submarine program
- Cement: Orders for new plants in Algeria in 1st quarter and Bolivia in 3rd quarter; also various orders for plant expansions and modernizations
- Mining: Major orderňship loader and stockyard equipment'nin North America in 3rd quarter and further medium-size and smaller ordersňincl. belt conveyor systems, bucket wheel excavators, and coal handling facility in Asia as well as biomass power plant in Australia'n
- Chemical plant engineering: Major projects at advanced stage of negotiation
- System Engineering: Orders for battery assembly plant, body-in-white lines and test systems from leading German automakers in Europe and Asia; temporary decline in first 9 months with full-year outlook remaining positive
Orders in the materials businesses Materials Services and Steel Europe were clearly up year-on-year in the first 9 months thanks in particular to higher prices. At Steel Europe orders in 3rd quarter were down from prior year as a result of lower volumes.
Steel Americasňdiscontinued operation) clearly up from prior-year due to higher prices.

1'n Excluding material currency and portfolio effects
Overall sales in the capital goods businesses were higher year-on-year.
Rising sales at Components Technology (particularly for auto components) and Elevator Technology (particularly positive trend in the USA and South Korea) outweighed declining sales at Industrial Solutions (lower number of milestone billings in plant engineering; but sales gains at Marine Systems and System Engineering)
The materials businesses Materials Services and Steel Europe increased their sales significantly year-on-year mainly due to higher prices.
Materials Services
- Double-digit percentage sales gains year-on-year
- Following recovery, prices now declining in almost all product segments; however prices for flat steel products from Asia currently rising again; stainless steel prices remain highly volatile
- Overall materials volumes level with prior year (7.3 million tons shipments)
- Stable warehousing and service business, particularly due to new service centers in Hungary and Spain; situation in global materials trading likewise stable
- Gains at AST due to higher volumes and prices
- Raw material trading volumes down from 2.3 million tons to 0.9 million tons; stronger focus on higher-value, higher-margin products
Steel Europe
- Higher sales due to higher average net selling prices and rising shipments (8.6 million tons; up 4%), but lower volumes in heavy plate due to market- and production-related factors
- Price recovery for all products and business units with exception of Electrical Steel
Steel Americas (discontinued operation) achieved higher sales due to higher prices, with shipments temporarily lower (3.1 million tons; down 5%). Good progress building further long-term customer relationships and increase in local shipment volumes.

1) See reconciliation in segment reporting (Note 07).
In the capital goods businesses adjusted EBIT in the first 9 months was lower year-on-year despite sustainable efficiency and cost reduction measures.
■ Continued growth at Components Technology and Elevator Technology could not offset decline at Industrial Solutions
Components Technology
- Adjusted EBIT level with prior year in 3rd quarter and higher year-on-year in first 9 months
- Improvements in car components outweighed declines in industrial components
Elevator Technology
- Adjusted EBIT and margin in 3rd quarter higher year-on-year for the 19th quarter in succession
- Margin at 12.3% in 3rd quarter 0.5 percentage points higher year-on-year as a result of performance program
Industrial Solutions
■ Adjusted EBIT down sharply year-on-year, reflecting lower-margin project milestones as well as partial underutilization; partly offset by positive effects from full consolidation of Atlas Elektronik
In the materials businesses Materials Services and Steel Europe adjusted EBIT was significantly higher year-on-year, also supported by cost programs.
Materials Services
- Positive price trend particularly in 1st half and continued earnings-securing measures led to strong earnings improvement in all units
- AST with significantly higher earnings contribution, reflecting positive price trend and sustainable success of performance programs
Steel Europe
- Earnings in 9-month period significantly higher year-on-year, primarily due to higher selling prices, and with clear improvement over course of fiscal year; raw material costs softened in reporting quarter, but now rising again
- Correspondingly positive margin trend: Adjusted EBIT margin in 3rd quarter increased to 9.9%, compared with 1.5% and 3.9% in previous two quarters
At Corporate adjusted EBIT was down year-on-year and continues to include project expenditures in connection with the digital initiativesňIT infrastructure standardization and data and process harmonization'n.
At Steel Americasňdiscontinued operation) the positive price trend, cost reduction measures and valuation effects on input tax credits outweighed lower shipments and higher raw material costs and negative cost effects from the stronger Brazilian real.

Results of operations and financial position
Analysis of the statement of income
Income from operations
- Growth in cost of sales of continuing operations slightly higher than growth in net sales; gross profit margin down year-on-year to 17.0%ňprior year: 17.3%'n
- Increase in selling expenses of continuing operations mainly due to higher expenses for salesrelated freight and insurance charges and tariffs
- Increase in general and administrative expenses of continuing operations resulting mainly from higher personnel expenses, due in part to increased restructuring provisions, and higher consulting and IT costs
- Increase in other income of continuing operations mainly due to remeasurement of the investment in Atlas Elektronik in connection with the switch to full consolidation as a result of acquisition of the remaining shares
- Increase in other expenses of continuing operations mainly due to higher non-income taxes
Financial income/expense and income tax
- Decrease in finance income mainly due to lower exchange rate gains in connection with financial transactions alongside higher income from derivatives in connection with financing
- Net decrease in finance expense mainly due to much lower exchange rate losses in connection with financial transactions and lower interest expense for financial debt and pensions alongside higher expenses from derivatives in connection with financing
- Increased tax expense on rising profits in the USA and non-recognition of deferred tax assets
Earnings per share
- Net income down by €836 million to loss of €721 million; impairment charges in connection with the initiated sale of the Brazilian steel mill CSA to Ternium impacted income from discontinued operations
- Improvement in non-controlling interest mainly due to takeover of minority interest in thyssenkrupp CSA in 3rd quarter of fiscal 2015 / 2016
- Large decrease in earnings per share to loss of €1.33
Analysis of the statement of cash flows
Operating cash flows
- Operating cash flows from continuing operations positive in the 3rd quarter but lower year-onyear mainly due to increase in operating assets and liabilities; clearly negative and likewise lower year-on-year in the first 9 months mainly due to net increase in operating assets and liabilities
- Volume recovery and strong rise in materials prices in the materials businesses
- Working down of existing orders and temporary shift in payment profile at Industrial Solutions
Cash flows from investing activities
- Capital spending at continuing operations higher year-on-year in the first 9 months; share of capital goods businesses in continuing operations 51%
- Modernization of IT and harmonization of systems landscape at all business areas and Corporate to enhance efficiency, lower costs and as a basis for Industry 4.0

Forecast, opportunity and risk report
2016 / 2017 forecast
Overall assessment by the Executive Board
- Pleasing progress on transformation of the Group and continuation of good operating performance in the first 9 months:
- Sale of Brazilian steel mill CSA to Ternium in 2nd quarter concludes Steel Americas exit
- Group and continuing operations with highest order intake since the start of the Strategic Way Forward; sales and adjusted EBIT higher year-on-year
- However, also severe dislocations on the raw materials markets, especially for coking coal, with temporary effects on expected costs and net working capital
- Sales and earnings forecast for the Group and the continuing operations affirmed; forecast for FCF before M&A of the Group revisedňsee below'n
For key assumptions and expected economic conditions see forecast section and "Macro and sector environment" in the report on the economic position in the 2015 / 2016 Annual Report and this interim report.
2016 / 2017 expectations
- Group sales and sales of the continuing operations to increase on a comparable basis in the high single-digit percentage range
- Capital goods businesses: on a comparable basis increase in single-digit percentage range for Components Technology and Elevator Technology; decrease in single-digit percentage range for Industrial Solutions
-
Materials businesses: on a comparable basis Materials Services, Steel Europe and Steel Americas ňdiscontinued operation'nto achieve increase in double-digit percentage range driven by volumes and in particular prices/costs
-
Adjusted EBIT of the Group expected to be around €1.8 billionňprior year: €1,469 million'n, supported by €850 million planned EBIT effects from "impact"
- Adjusted EBIT of continuing operations expected to be around €1.7 billion
- Capital goods businesses
- Components Technology: improvement in adjusted EBITňprior year: €335 million'nfrom significant rise in sales and slight improvement in marginňprior year: 4.9%'n
- Elevator Technology: improvement in adjusted EBITňprior year: €860 million'nfrom slight sales growth and increase in adjusted EBIT margin by 0.5 to 0.7 percentage pointsňprior year: 11.5%'n
- Industrial Solutions:
- Short-term focus on reversing trend in orders and cash flow
- Decline in adjusted EBIT due to partial underutilizationňprior year: €355 million'nwith slight decline in sales
- Marine Systems and chemical plant construction with temporary sharp decline in margin and earnings
- Overall margin temporarily noticeably below target range of 6 to 7%
- Materials businesses
- Materials Services: adjusted EBIT significantly higher year-on-yearňprior year: €128 million'n
- Steel Europe: adjusted EBIT significantly higher year-on-yearňprior year: €315 million'n
- Steel Americas ňdiscontinued operation'n: adjusted EBIT significantly higher year-on-year ňprior year: loss of €33 million'n; no depreciation due to classification as discontinued operation
- Net income of the Group: with positive operating earnings and continuing restructuring expense, overall significant net loss expectedňprior year: €261 million net income'nexclusively as a result of negative earnings impact from sale of CSA
- tkVA of the Group: clearly positive trend due to good operating performance, but as a result of negative earnings impact from sale of CSA overall significantly lower year-on-yearňprior year: loss of €85 million'n
- Capital spending of the Group before M&A: expected around €1.5 billionňprior year: €1,387 million'n
- FCF before M&A of the Group: Negative in mid to higher three-digit million euro rangeňprior year: €198 million'n
- Due to the significant increase in net working capital at our materials businesses as a result of dislocations on raw materials markets and higher volumes and prices
- Due to the earlier than expected closing of the sale of CSA to Ternium in the 4th quarter and absence therefore of the anticipated NWC release by CSA towards the end of the fiscal year. The absence of this NWC release results in a correspondingly higher purchase price. This is neutral for expected net financial debt and FCF overall but will burden FCF before M&A
Opportunities and risks
Opportunities
- Strong and stable earnings, cash flow and value added through positioning as diversified industrial group and systematic continuation of "impact" measures as well as utilization of advantages in interplay between business areas, regions, corporate functions and service units
- Increasing focus on high-earning capital goods and service businesses

thyssenkrupp AG – Selected notes
Corporate information
thyssenkrupp Aktiengesellschaftň"thyssenkrupp AG" or "Company"'nis a publicly traded corporation domiciled in Duisburg and Essen in Germany. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of thyssenkrupp AG and subsidiaries, collectively the "Group", for the period from October 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017, were reviewed and authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Executive Board on August 7, 2017.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying Group's condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to section 37w of the German Securities Trading ActňWpHG'nand in conformity with IAS 34 "Interim financial reporting". They are in line with the International Financial Reporting StandardsňIFRS'nand its interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board ňIASB'n for interim financial information effective within the European Union. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by IFRS for complete financial statements for year-end reporting purposes.
The accounting principles and practices as applied in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2017 correspond to those pertaining to the most recent annual consolidated financial statements with the exception of the recently adopted accounting standards. A detailed description of the accounting policies is published in the notes to the consolidated financial statements of our annual report 2015 / 2016.
Recently adopted accounting standards
In fiscal year 2016 / 2017, thyssenkrupp adopted the following amendments to already existing standards that did not have a material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements:
- Amendments to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements", issued in December 2014. The amendments mainly include clarifications regarding the judgment of materiality of disclosures, explanations how to aggregate and disaggregate line items of the balance sheet and the statement of comprehensive income, the order to the notes and the disclosure to significant accounting policies.
- Amendments to IFRS 11 "Joint Arrangements": "Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations", issued in May 2014
- Amendments to IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment" and IAS 38 "Intangible Assets": "Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation", issued in May 2014

- Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28: "Investment Entities Applying the Consolidation Exception", issued in December 2014
01 Acquisitions
At the beginning of April 2017 thyssenkrupp completed the full takeover of Atlas Elektronik after approval for the acquisition of the 49% share held by Airbus was also given by the German government and the competition authorities. thyssenkrupp already held a 51% share in Atlas Elektronik and managed the company together with Airbus as a joint venture, which was accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. Following the full acquisition, the Atlas Elektronik group is now fully consolidated.
The Atlas Elektronik group is an international maritime high-tech supplier of ships' electronic systems and has been a technology partner of thyssenkrupp Marine systems for many years. With the takeover the Marine Systems business of the Industrial Solutions business area is repositioning itself as an integrated system provider and developing strategic advantages in the global market for submarines and naval surface vessels.
Immediately before the acquisition of the remaining share, the value of the investment accounted for using the equity-method amounted to €111 million. Following remeasurement in connection with the acquisition, this increased to €161 million taking into account the purchase price for the 49% share; the resultant profit of €50 million is reported under other income in the consolidated statement of income. The purchase price for the 49% share amounted to €155 million. In the context of the first-time consolidation a preliminary goodwill of €255 million was recognized, which contains assets such as know-how and customer relationships. Currently the purchase price is allocated.
Based on the preliminary values at the time of acquisition, the acquisition affected the consolidated financial statements as follows:

If the acquisition had taken place instead as of October 1, 2016, the Atlas Elektronik group would have contributed additional sales of around €196 million and earnings before taxes of around €ň17'nmillion to the Group.

02 Discontinued operation
As part of the Strategic Way Forward, thyssenkrupp reached agreement with Ternium on the sale of the Brazilian steel mill CSA Siderúrgica do Atlantico ňCSA'n at the end of February 2017. As of June 30, 2017 the sale was still subject to the approval of the responsible Brazilian competition authority CADE and is due for completion by September 30, 2017. The transaction meets the criteria of IFRS 5 for presentation of the Steel Americas business area as a discontinued operation. Consequently in the current reporting periods all expense and income of Steel Americas are reported separately in the income statement and all cash flows reported separately in the statement of cash flows; prior-period figures are adjusted accordingly. In the statement of financial position, assets and liabilities attributable to Steel Americas are only reported separately at the current balance sheet date.
In connection with the initiated disposal, the assets and liabilities of the discontinued operation are measured at fair value less costs to sell; this amounted to €1.5 billion ňenterprise value'n. This resulted in a negative earnings effect of €0.9 billion in the 2nd quarter ended March 31, 2017, including an impairment loss of €808 million in accordance with IAS 36 immediately prior to reclassification. Of this €8 million relates to goodwill, €1 million to other intangible assets, €83 million to land and buildings, €555 million to technical equipment and machinery, €1 million to other assets and €160 million to other non-financial assets. In addition, in the 2nd quarter ended March 31, 2017 a €101 million provision has been recognized for an obligation resulting from the sale to Ternium in connection with the slab supply contract, which as a result of further slab supplies increased by €51 million to €152 million in the 3rd quarter ended June 30, 2017. The expenses are included in the consolidated statement of income in the line "Income/ňloss'n from discontinued operationsňnet of tax'n".
The assets and liabilities of the Steel Americas business area classified as a discontinued operation are presented in the following table:

In March 2017 thyssenkrupp AG issued a bond with a total volume of €1,250 million with a maturity of five years and a coupon of 1.375% p.a. under its €10 billion debt issuance program.
As of June 30, 2017 the existing Commercial Paper Program with a maximum issuing volume of €1.5 billion was utilized with €1.1 billion.
05 Contingencies and commitments
Contingencies
thyssenkrupp AG as well as, in individual cases, its subsidiaries have issued or have had guarantees in favour of business partners or lenders. The following table shows obligations under guarantees where the principal debtor is not a consolidated Group company:
| CONTINGENCIES | ||
|---|---|---|
| Maximum potential amount of future payments as of |
Provision as of | |
| million € | June 30, 2017 | June 30, 2017 |
| Advance payment bonds | 1 | 0 |
| Performance bonds | 2 | 0 |
| Residual value guarantees | 61 | 12 |
| Other guarantees | 7 | 0 |
| Total | 71 | 12 |
Compared with September 30, 2016 contingencies decreased significantly by €352 million to €71 million; this is in connection with the first-time consolidation of the Atlas Elektronik group as of April 3, 2017.
The terms of those guarantees depend on the type of guarantee and may range from three months to ten years ňe.g. rental payment guarantees'n. The basis for possible payments under the guarantees is always the non-performance of the principal debtor under a contractual agreement, e.g. late delivery, delivery of non-conforming goods under a contract or non-performance with respect to the warranted quality or default under a loan agreement.
All guarantees are issued by or issued by instruction of thyssenkrupp AG or subsidiaries upon request of the principal debtor obligated by the underlying contractual relationship and are subject to recourse provisions in case of default. If such a principal debtor is a company owned fully or partially by a foreign third party, the third party is generally requested to provide additional collateral in a corresponding amount.
Commitments and other contingencies
Due to the high volatility of iron ore prices, in the Steel Europe and Steel Americas business areas the existing long-term iron ore and iron ore pellets supply contracts are measured for the entire contract period at the iron ore prices applying as of the respective balance sheet date. Compared with September 30, 2016, purchase commitments as of June 30, 2017 are again at the level of €7.1 billion; of this €5.0 billion relates to the discontinued operation Steel Americas.
There have been no other material changes since the end of the last fiscal year.

The carrying amounts of trade accounts receivable, other current financial assets as well as cash and cash equivalents equal their fair values. The fair value of loans equals the present value of expected cash flows which are discounted on the basis of interest rates prevailing on the interim balance sheet date.
Available-for-sale financial assets primarily include equity and debt instruments. They are in general measured at fair value, which is based to the extent available on market prices as of the interim balance sheet date. When no quoted market prices in an active market are available and the fair value cannot be reliably measured, equity instruments are measured at cost.
The fair value of foreign currency forward transactions is determined on the basis of the middle spot exchange rate applicable as of the interim balance sheet date, and taking into account of forward premiums or discounts arising for the respective remaining contract term compared to the contracted forward exchange rate. Common methods for calculating option prices are used for foreign currency options. The fair value of an option is influenced not only by the remaining term of an option, but also by other factors, such as current amount and volatility of the underlying exchange or base rate.
Interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps are measured at fair value by discounting expected cash flows on the basis of market interest rates applicable for the remaining contract term. In the case of cross currency swaps, the exchange rates for each foreign currency, in which cash flows occur, are also included.
The fair value of commodity futures is based on published price quotations. It is measured as of the interim balance sheet date, both internally and by external financial partners.
The carrying amounts of trade accounts payable and other current liabilities equal their fair values. The fair value of fixed rate liabilities equals the present value of expected cash flows. Discounting is based on interest rates applicable as of the balance sheet date. The carrying amounts of floating rate liabilities equal their fair values.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value could be categorized in the following three level fair value hierarchy:

The fair value hierarchy reflects the significance of the inputs used to determine fair values. Financial instruments with fair value measurement based on quoted prices in active markets are disclosed in Level 1. In Level 2 determination of fair values is based on observable inputs, e.g. foreign exchange rates. Level 3 comprises financial instruments for which the fair value measurement is based on unobservable inputs.

Review report
To thyssenkrupp AG, Duisburg and Essen
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements – comprising the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of income and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated statement of cash flows and selected explanatory notes – and the interim group management report of thyssenkrupp AG, Duisburg and Essen, for the period from October 1, 2016, to June 30, 2017, which are part of the quarterly financial report pursuant to §ňArticle'n37w WpHG ň"Wertpapierhandelsgesetz" German Securities Trading Act'n. The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and of the interim group management report in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports is the responsibility of the parent Company's Board of Managing Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a review report on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.
We conducted our review of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der WirtschaftsprüferňInstitute of Public Auditors in Germany'n ňIDW'n and additional observed the International Standard on Review Engagements "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" ňISRE 2410'n. Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with moderate assurance, that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot issue an audit opinion.
Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU nor that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports.
