Foreign Exchange
Exposure
The FX exposure of our consolidated
balance sheet on March 31, 2017 was US$ 603 million, ex bond as shown in the
table below.
The hedge accounting adopted by CSN
correlates projected export inflows in dollars with part of the scheduled debt
payments in the same currency. Therefore, the exchange variation of the
dollar-denominated debt is temporarily booked
under shareholders’ eq
uity, being recorded in the
income statement when dollar revenues from exports are received.

Notes: As of 2013, the Company ceased the proportional consolidation of its jointly-owned subsidiaries Namisa, MRS and CBSI.

reconciliation of CSN’s consolidated results, these companies’ results are eliminated in the “Corporate Expenses/Elimination”
