forward-looking statements within the meaning of securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded
by, followed by, or including the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "plans," "estimates," "projects," "forecasts," or
similar expressions. Examples of forward-looking statements in this presentation are statements about the company’s
expectations for projected strong demand for automotive sheet. Novelis cautions that, by their nature, forward-looking
statements involve risk and uncertainty and that Novelis' actual results could differ materially from those expressed or
implied in such statements. We do not intend, and we disclaim, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to
differ from the results expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among other things: changes in the
prices and availability of aluminum (or premiums associated with such prices) or other materials and raw materials we use;
the capacity and effectiveness of our hedging activities; relationships with, and financial and operating conditions of, our
customers, suppliers and other stakeholders; fluctuations in the supply of, and prices for, energy in the areas in which we
maintain production facilities; our ability to access financing for future capital requirements; changes in the relative values of
various currencies and the effectiveness of our currency hedging activities; factors affecting our operations, such as
litigation, environmental remediation and clean-up costs, labor relations and negotiations, breakdown of equipment and
other events; the impact of restructuring efforts in the future; economic, regulatory and political factors within the countries in
which we operate or sell our products, including changes in duties or tariffs; competition from other aluminum rolled products
producers as well as from substitute materials such as steel, glass, plastic and composite materials; changes in general
economic conditions including deterioration in the global economy, particularly sectors in which our customers operate;
cyclical demand and pricing within the principal markets for our products as well as seasonality in certain of our customers’
industries; changes in government regulations, particularly those affecting taxes, environmental, health or safety
compliance; changes in interest rates that have the effect of increasing the amounts we pay under our credit facilities and
other financing agreements; the effect of taxes and changes in tax rates; and our level of indebtedness and our ability to
generate cash. The above list of factors is not exhaustive. Other important risk factors included under the caption "Risk
Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 are specifically incorporated by
reference into this presentation.

Income Statement Reconciliation To Adjusted EBITDA
Explanation of other income (expense) Included in adjusted EBITDA
1) Metal price lag net of related hedges: On certain sales contracts we experience timing differences on the pass through of changing aluminum prices from our suppliers to our customers.
Additional timing differences occur in the flow of metal costs through moving average inventory cost values and cost of goods sold. This timing difference is referred to as metal price lag.
Although we use derivatives contracts to minimize the price lag associated with LME base aluminum prices, we do not use derivative contracts for local market premiums, as these are not
prevalent in the market.
2) Foreign currency remeasurement net of related hedges: All balance sheet accounts not denominated in the functional currency are remeasured every period to the period end exchange
rates. This impacts our profitability. Like metal price lag, we have a risk management program in place to minimize the impact of such remeasurement.
