Independent auditor's report on review the individual and consolidated interim financial information.
To the Shareholders, Directors and Managers of
Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional
Sao Paulo-SP
Introduction
We have reviewed the individual and consolidated interim financial information of Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional ("Company"), contained in the Quarterly Information Form - ITR for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, which comprise the balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, for three and nine-month period then ended and changes in shareholder’s equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, including a summary of significant accounting policies and notes.
The Company's management is responsible for preparing and presenting the individual and consolidated interim financial information, in accordance with technical pronouncement NBC TG 21 - Interim Financial Statements and with the international accounting standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as the presentation of this information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission, applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly 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 for reviewing interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Entity Auditor and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. The scope of a review is significantly less than that of an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards and, as a result, did not enable us to obtain assurance that we have taken knowledge of all significant matters that could be identified in an audit. Therefore, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information
Based on our review, we are not aware of any fact which leads us to believe that the individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the aforementioned quarterly information was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NBC TG 21 and IAS 34, applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information - ITR, and presented in accordance with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission.

Other matters
Statement of Value Added
The aforementioned quarterly information includes the individual and consolidated Statements of Value Added (DVA), referring to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, prepared under the responsibility of the Company's management and presented as supplementary information for IAS purposes 34. These statements were submitted to review procedures performed in conjunction with the review of the Company's quarterly information - ITR -, in order to conclude whether they are reconciled with the interim financial information and accounting records, as applicable, and if their form and content are in accordance with the criteria defined in NBC TG 09 - "Demonstration of Added Value". Based on our review, we are not aware of any facts that lead us to believe that these statements of value added were not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the criteria defined in this standard and in a manner consistent with the interim financial information, individual and consolidated, taken together.
