The Company’s registered office is located in São Paulo, SP, Brazil.

The Group's main operating activities are divided into five (5) operating segments as follows:

· Steel:

The Company’s main industrial facility is the Presidente Vargas steelworks (“UPV”), located in the city of Volta Redonda, State of Rio de Janeiro. This segment consolidates production, distribution and sale of flat steel, long steel, metallic containers and galvanized steel. In addition to the facilities in Brazil, CSN has operations in the United States, Portugal and Germany, all of them are in line with the plan to achieve new markets and perform excellent services for final consumers. Its steel has been used in home appliances, civil construction and automobile industries.

· Mining:

The production of iron ore is developed in the city of Congonhas, State of Minas Gerais.

Iron ore is sold basically in the international market, especially in Europe and Asia. The prices charged in these markets are historically cyclical and subject to significant fluctuations over short periods of time, driven by several factors related to global demand, strategies adopted by the major steel producers, and the foreign exchange rate. All these factors are beyond the Company’s control. The ore transportation is accomplished by Terminal de Carvão e Minérios do Porto de Itaguai - TECAR, a solid bulk terminal, one of the four terminals that compose the Port of Itaguai, located in Rio de Janeiro. Imports of coal and coke are held through this terminal and directed to the steel industry of CSN.

From November 30, 2015 the Company has transferred to its subsidiary Congonhas Minérios the mining assets, the logistical infrastructure, including the mine Casa de Pedra and the right to operate the terminal TECAR, S.A. On the same date, the Company acquired the Asian Consortium 40% stake in Namisa as an exchange for 12,48% stake in Congonhas Minérios S. A.

The Company´s mining activities also comprises tin exploitation, which is based in the State of Rondônia, this facility is engaged to supply the needs of UPV, with the excess of raw materials being sold to subsidiaries and third parties.

· Cement:

Next to the Presidente Vargas Steelworks (UPV) in Volta Redonda (RJ) is installed the new business unit CSN Cimentos, which produces CP-III type of cement by using slag produced by the UPV blast furnaces in Volta Redonda. It also explores limestone and dolomite at the Arcos unit, located in the State of Minas Gerais, to satisfy the needs of UPV as of the cement plant.

3. BUSINESS COMBINATION – CONTROL AQUISITION OF CGPAR CONSTRUÇÃO PESADA S.A. (“CGPAR”)

On September 30, 2016, CSN acquired 50% shares of CGPAR previously held by GPA Construção Pesada e Mineração Ltda., increasing its participation to 100%. The total amount paid in consideration for the shares was R$ 1.00 (One Real).

The consideration paid reflects an agreement to solve a legal dispute involving corporate and commercial issues, as well as to release dividends declared in previous fiscal years.

The business combination steps are described as follows:

a) Determination of the purchase price

Description	R$	Ref.
Fair value of the equity interest held by the acquiring company in CGPAR immediately prior to the combination	36,621	(i)
Consideration paid in CGPAR acquisition	-	(ii)
Purchase price considered for the business combination	36,621

(i) Fair value of 50% stake in CGPAR held immediately before the acquisition.

(ii) Amount related to the consideration paid for the acquiring company R$ 1.00 (One real).

CSN held 50% shares of CGPAR immediately before the conclusion of the control acquisition, this investment was measured by the equity method.

According to the item 41 of the IFRS 3, those shares are part of the consideration paid and must be measured by their fair value on the acquisition date. The accounting rule determines that a gain or loss must be recorded resulting from the difference between the fair value and the book value before the transaction. Therefore, the CGPAR valuation by its fair value was calculated based in the discounted cash flow method, considering the business plan valid until the transaction date.

The results are presented in the following table:

Premises		R$
Fair value as of September 30, 2016 (equity value)		73,242
Fair value attributed to 50% equity interest prior acquisition (a)		36,621
Accounting Balances
The equity interest prior acquisition (a) on September 30, 2016		8,608
Gain in the valuation of the 50% interest by the fair value of the equity interest prior to the acquisition (a)-(b) (Note 24)		28,013

b) Goodwill generated from the control acquisition of CGPAR

According to the item 32 of the IFRS 3, the acquirer must recognize the goodwill resulted from the future economic benefits at the acquisition date, measured by the amount in which the purchase price exceeds the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed (Purchase Price Allocation - PPA). The generated and goodwill amounting to R$ 1.784 million.

In the following table its presented the fair value allocation for 100% of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on September 30, 2016 which is being analyzed by an independent firm.

				09/30/2016
	Carrying amounts	Fair value adjustments		Total fair value
Total assets acquired	49,750	21,231	(a)	70,981
Total liabilities assumed	32,535	3,609	(b)	36,144
	17,215	17,622		34,837

(a) Refers to property, plant and equipment adjusted by the difference between the fair value and the book value amounts.

(b) Refers to deferred tax.

The accounting record for the CGPAR acquisition was temporarily elaborated at the end of reporting period of these financial statements. At the date of these financial statements, the required market assessments, contractual obligations and other calculations had not been finalized and, as a consequence, had only been temporarily elaborated on the basis of management's best estimate of probable values.

The Company has investments in common (USIM3) and preferred (USIM5) shares of Usiminas (“Usiminas Shares”), designated as available-for-sale financial assets. The Company adopts this designation because the nature of the investment is not comprised in any other categories of financial instruments (loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss). The asset is classified as a non-current asset in line item “investments” and is carried at fair value based on the quoted price on the stock exchange (BM&FBOVESPA). According to the Company's policy, the gains and losses arising from changes in the price of shares are recorded directly in equity, as other comprehensive income.

During March 2016, the Usiminas’ Board of Directors authorized a capital increase amounting to R$64,882, through the issuance of up to 50,689,310 preferred shares.

Class of shares	Quantity	09/30/2016			12/31/2015		Variation in the period
Class of shares	Quantity	Share price	Closing Balance	Quantity	Share price	Closing Balance	Share price	Variation in the carrying amount

· Hedge accounting – cash flow

Beginning November 1, 2014, the Company formally designated cash flow hedging relationships to protect highly probable future cash flows against US dollar fluctuations.

In order to better reflect the accounting impacts of this foreign exchange hedging strategy on its profit, CSN designated part of its US dollar-denominated liabilities as a hedging instrument of its future exports. As a result, foreign exchange differences arising on translating the designated liabilities shall be temporarily recognized in shareholders’ equity and allocated to profit or loss when such exports are carried out, which will allow recognizing the US dollar impact on liabilities and exports concurrently.

The table below shows a summary of the hedging relationships as of September 30, 2016:

(*) The effect on the financial result was recorded in net foreign exchange rates.

(1) During the designation on August 2015, we reviewed the future export projections and identified that the amount of US$ 9 million designated previously were not highly probable due to Platt’s quotation reduction. Therefore, the hedge relationship was discontinued from August 2015. The exchange rate of the effective period remains recorded in Stockholders' Equity until the time of debt settlement.

In the hedging relationships described above, the amounts of the debt instruments were fully designated for equivalent iron ore export portions.

The movements in the hedge accounting amounts recognized in shareholders’ equity as of September 30, 2016 are as follows:

	12/31/2015	Movement	Realization	09/30/2016
Cash flow hedge accounting	1,520,090	(1,016,560)	(26,472)	477,058
Income tax and social contribution on cash flow hedge accounting	(516,831)	345,631	9,000	(162,200)
Not recorded Income tax and social contribution on cash flow hedge accounting	357,951	(340,823)		17,128
Cash flow hedge accounting	1,361,210	(1,011,752)	(17,472)	331,986

As of September 30, 2016, the hedging relationships established by the Company were effective, according to the prospective tests conducted. Thus, no reversal for hedge accounting ineffectiveness was recognized.

· Net investment hedge in foreign subsidiaries

CSN has foreign exchange exposure in Euros arising from a loan made by a foreign subsidiary with functional currency in Reais, for the acquisition of investments abroad whose functional currency is Euro. Such exposure arises from converting the balance sheets of these subsidiaries for consolidation in CSN, and the exchange rate of the loans affected the income statement in the financial result item and the exchange variation of the net assets of the foreign operation directly affected the equity in other comprehensive income.

As from September 1^st, 2015 CSN began to adopt hedge of net investment to eliminate exposure in order to cover future fluctuations of the Euro on such loans. Non-derivative financial liabilities have been designated represented by loan agreements with financial institutions in the amount of € 120 million. The carrying amounts on September 30, 2016 are:

(*) The volume of sales presented hereto considers the sales of the company together with the sales of its affiliates and joint ventures.

· Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is the measurement based on which the chief operating decision maker assesses the segment performance and the capacity to generate recurring operating cash, consisting of profit for the year less net finance income (costs), income tax and social contribution, depreciation and amortization, equity in results of affiliated companies, results of discontinued operations and other operating income (expenses), plus the proportionate EBITDA of joint ventures.

Even though it is an indicator used in segment performance measurement, EBITDA is not a measurement recognized by accounting practices adopted in Brazil or IFRS, it does not have a standard definition, and may not be comparable with measurements using similar names provided by other entities.

As required by IFRS 8, the table below shows the reconciliation of the measurement used by the chief operating decision maker with the results determined using the accounting practices:

28. INSURANCE

Aiming to properly mitigate risk and in view of the nature of its operations, the Company and its subsidiaries have taken out several different types of insurance policies. Such policies are contracted in line with the CSN Risk Management policy and are similar to the insurance taken out by other companies operating in the same lines of business as CSN and its subsidiaries. The risks covered under such policies include the following: Domestic Transportation, International Transportation, Life and Casualty, Health Coverage, Fleet Vehicles, D&O (Civil Liability Insurance for Directors and Officers), General Civil Liability, Engineering Risks, naming Risks, Export Credit, warranty and Port Operator’s Civil Liability.

In 2015, after negotiation with insurers and reinsurers in Brazil and abroad, an insurance policy was issued for the contracting of a policy of Operational Risk of Property Damages and Loss of Profits, with effect from September 30, 2015 to October 30, 2016. Under the insurance policy, the LMI (Maximum Limit of Indemnity) is US$600 million and covers the following units and subsidiaries of the Company: Presidente Vargas steelworks, Congonhas Minérios, Sepetiba Tecon, and CSN Mining. CSN takes responsibility for a range of retention of US$375 million in excess of the deductibles for property damages and loss of profits.

In view of their nature, the risk assumptions adopted are not part of the scope of an audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, were not audited by our independent auditors.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional

São Paulo – SP

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional (the “Company”), identified as Parent and Consolidated, respectively, included in the Interim Financial Information Form (ITR), for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, which comprises the balance sheet as of September 30, 2016 and the related statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine-month period then ended, and statement of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period ended, including the explanatory notes.

The Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) Interim Financial Information and international standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board IASB, as well as for the presentation of such information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation of the Interim Financial Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on review of interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards on auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the interim financial information referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34, applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information (ITR), and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the CVM.

Emphasis of Matter

The individual and consolidated corresponding values, related to the cash flow statement for the three and nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 are being restated accordingly to the matter described at note 2.d).

Other Matters

We have also reviewed the individual and consolidated statements of value added (DVA) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s Management, the presentation of which is required by the standards issued by the CVM applicable to the preparation of Interim Financial Information (ITR) and considered as supplemental information for International Financial Reporting Standards IFRSs, which do not require the presentation of DVA. These statements were subject to the same review procedures described above, and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that they were not prepared, in all material respects, consistently with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.

The accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information has been translated into English for the convenience of readers outside Brazil.
