5. Segment reporting
MYTILINEOS Group is active in three main operating business segments: Metallurgy, Constructions and
Energy. In identifying its operating segments, management generally follows the Group’s service lines,
which represent the main products and services provided by the Group. Each of these operating segments is
managed separately as each of these service lines requires different technologies and other resources as well
as marketing approaches. The adoption of IFRS 8 has not affected the identified operating segments for the
Group compared to the recent annual financial statement.
