In relation to iron ore export sales are generally made pursuant to long-term supply contracts which provide for annual price adjustments. Cyclical changes in the world demand for steel products affect sales prices and volumes in the world iron ore market. Different factors, such as the iron content of specific ore deposits, the various beneficiation and purifying processes required to produce the desired final product, particle size, moisture content, and the type and concentration of contaminants (such as phosphorus, alumina and manganese) in the ore influence contract prices for iron ore. Contract prices also depend on transportation costs. Fines, lump ore and pellets command different prices. We generally conduct annual price negotiations from November to February of each year, with separate prices established for the Asian and European iron ore markets. In the Asian market, the renegotiated prices are effective as of April of each year. In the European market, the renegotiated prices are effective as of January of each year. Because of the wide variety of iron ore and pellet quality and physical characteristics, iron ore and pellets are less commodity-like than other minerals. This factor combined with the structure of the market has prevented the development of an iron ore futures market. Nowadays we do not hedge our exposure to iron ore price volatility. Concerning logistics, CVRD is a lider in brazilian transportation sector; we have extensive experience managing complex logistics operations. Built originally to serve our iron ore business, our logistics system includes our 898 km Vitoria-Minas Railroad and Tubarao and Praia Mole ports in the Southern System, and our 892 km Carajas Railroad and Ponta da Madeira marine terminal in the Northern System. In addition, in the last five years we have acquired stakes in three privatized railroads, including Centro-Atlantica, which interconnects with the Vitoria-Minas Railroad using the same track gauge, and therefore leverages its volumes. We made these investments to expand our third-party cargo business. The principal cargo of the Vitoria-Minas railroad is the transportation of our own iron ore and other Brazilian mining companies, steel, coal and pig iron carried for steel manufacturers located along the railroad, and limestone carried for steel mills located in the States of Minas Gerais and Espirito Santo. Market rates vary based upon the distance traveled and the density of the freight in question; (b) Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the two currencies have a significant impact on the operating cash flows ; (c) Approximately 95% of the short-term and long-term loans of the Company as of 09/30/01 are denominated in U.S. dollars. As a result, exchange rate fluctuations have a significant impact on the financial expenses (Notes 6.11 and 6.19); (d) The variations of the main currencies and indices during the nine months ended 09/30/01 and 09/30/00 in terms of percentages in relation to the real, which impacted the results of the Company and its subsidiaries, jointly controlled companies and affiliates, were as follows: (DELTA)% ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------- Currencies/Indices Parity Period U.S. DOLLAR YEN GOLD IGPM (*) TJLP(**) US$ x Yen ------------------------------------------ ------------ ---------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ------------ 09/30/01 36.6 30.9 6.8 7.7 6.9 119.7 09/30/00 3.1 (2.3) (5.6) 8.5 8.2 108.3 (*) IGPM - General Price Index - Market (**) TJLP - Long-Term Interest Rate 3 1.2- Comments on the Parent Company Results The net income of the Company for the period was R$ 2,411,580 (R$ 1,205,898 in the first semester and R$ 1,205,682 in the third quarter) a 50.7% increase over the R$ 1,600,329 reported for the same period of 2000, raising the earnings per share to R$ 6.28 in 2001 from R$ 4.16 in 2000. 1.2.1- Operating Revenues Operating revenues increased 27.7% (from R$ 3,765,045 in 2000 to R$ 4,806,738 in 2001). The increase in revenues reflects the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the real as well as a growth in iron ore and pellets sales volume, offset in part by a decrease in the volumes of other products and services. Increase in iron ore sales is due to SOCOIMEX incorporation and the leasing of mines owned by SAMITRI (06/01). The operations mentioned above though do not mean decrease in total revenues, caused change with railroad and port services revenues, and these were basically substituted by the commercialization of iron ore. The reduction in manganese sales volumes is compensated by an increase in the sales of SIBRA (a subsidiary) due to capital contribution in 12/31/00 of the Azul manganese mine.

Besides, increase in fuel oil prices and consumption, the devaluation of the real against the U.S. dollar and increased purchase of pellets for resale also contributed for the increase.

This variation was basically due to a combination of the following factors: o Recognition of equity income of R$ 107,522 on the unwinding of the cross participation between CVRD and CSN. o The positive effects of the 36.6% devaluation of the real against the U.S. dollar in 2001 (as compared to 3.1% in the same period of 2000) in the companies operating abroad, offset by the negative effects in the companies in Brazil with debt denominated in U.S. dollars as well as reduction in prices and quantities sold for aluminum and steel products. o Since this quarter recognition of provison for losses and integral amortization of the goodwill of investments with unsecured liability. 5 Business Area 09/30/01 09/30/00 ----------------------------------- -------- -------- Ferrous .

In addition, through its direct and indirect subsidiaries and jointly controlled companies, CVRD operates in coastal shipping, logistics, geological studies and technological research services, steel, aluminum, energy and e-business. 6.2- Presentation of Quarterly Information The financial statements have been prepared according to the accounting principles provided for in Brazilian corporate legislation as well as the rules and guidelines issued by the Comissao de Valores Mobiliarios - CVM (Brazilian Securities Commission) and the IBRACON - Instituto dos Auditores Independentes do Brasil (Institute of Independent Accountants of Brazil). In order to provide better information to the market, the Company is presenting as additional information the Statements of Cash Flows as shown on page 12. Certain amounts and classifications in the 2000 financial statements have been adjusted to the criteria used in 2001 for better comparability (Note 6.23). Other values with no relevant effect were also reclassified on the financial statements for the same purpose. 6.3- Significant Accounting Policies (a) The accrual basis of accounting is adopted by the Company; (b) Assets and liabilities that are realizable or due more than twelve months after the quarterly information date are classified as long-term; (c) Marketable securities are classified as cash and cash equivalents and stated at cost plus accrued income earned through the quarterly information date; (d) Inventories are stated at average purchase or production cost, and imports in transit at the cost of each item, not exceeding market or net realizable value; (e) Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates in effect at the quarterly information date, and those in local currency are restated based on contractual indices; (f) Investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled companies and affiliated companies are accounted for by the equity method, based on the stockholders' equity of the investees, and when applicable increased/decreased by goodwill and negative goodwill to be amortized and provision for losses. Other investments are recorded at cost, less provision for unrealized losses when applicable; and (g) Property, plant and equipment, including interest incurred during the construction period of large-scale projects, are recorded at historic cost (increased by monetary restatement up to 1995) and depreciated by the straight-line method, at rates that take into consideration the useful lives of the assets. Depletion of mineral reserves is computed by the unit-of-production method. Since 2001 the Company, based on technical studies, concluded for the revision of useful lives (depreciation rates) of certain equipments/installations. The effects of such revision are reflected in inventories and, mainly, in the results of 2001, which were reduced by R$ 92 million. 6.4- Cash and Cash Equivalents 09/30/01 06/30/01 Marketable securities (*) 1,070,993 1,309,404 Fixed-yield bond investments (funds) 185,630 80,213 Government securities (NBC-E, NTN-D, LFT ) 115,160 89,829 Others 1,522 2,372 --------- --------- 1,373,305 1,481,818 ========= ========= (*) For part of these investments the Company contracted swap operations with financial institutions, mainly related to interest rate and/or currency variations. 13 6.5- Accounts Receivable from Customers 09/30/01 06/30/01 Domestic 341,196 340,768 Export 658,339 491,588 ------- ------- 999,535 832,356 Allowance for doubtful accounts (22,462) (22,432) Allowance for ore weight credits (16,010) (13,289) ------- ------- 961,063 796,635 ======= ======= 6.6- Transactions with Related Parties Derived from sales and purchases of products and services or from loans under normal market conditions, with maturities up to the year 2010, as follows: Assets Liabilities --------------------- --------------------- 09/30/01 06/30/01 09/30/01 06/30/01 -------- -------- -------- -------- ALUNORTE - Alumina do Norte do Brasil S.A. 840,878 761,902 115,089 135,414 Celulose Nipo-Brasileira S.A. - CENIBRA - 235,460 - - Companhia Coreano-Brasileira de Pelotizacao - KOBRASCO 96,310 73,603 56,739 29,414 Companhia Hispano-Brasileira de Pelotizacao - HISPANOBRAS 45,149 38,364 55,818 46,487 Companhia Italo-Brasileira de Pelotizacao - ITABRASCO 46,571 33,100 61,619 40,211 Companhia Nipo-Brasileira de Pelotizacao - NIBRASCO 64,977 68,278 30,513 75,188 CVRD Overseas Ltd. 76,708 474 958,883 707,338 DOCEPAR S.A. 62,922 59,800 117 113 Ferrovia Centro-Atlantica S.A. 141,255 136,778 - 662 S.

Mineracao Trindade - SAMITRI . With this operation, the Company is seeking a gain in efficiency by reducing costs and rationalizing activities. On 02/19/01 an Extraordinary General Meeting approved the incorporation of the shares. Due to the incorporation of the shares issued by SAMITRI, the minority stockholders received preferred class A shares issued by CVRD, which were in treasury, in the proportion of 1 CVRD share to 628 SAMITRI shares; On 08/01/01 an Extraordinary General Meeting approved the protocol and justification for incorporation of Mineracao Trindade S. A. - SAMITRI. On 10/01/01 SAMITRI was merged with CVRD. (l) On 03/15/01 CVRD terminated its investment in Companhia Siderurgica Nacional ("CSN") by unwinding the cross participation relationship between the companies. This transaction created the opportunity to address the following questions: (1) The signing of a contract with CSN which guarantees to the Company certain preemptive rights, for a period of thirty years, as follows: (a) purchase of any iron ore surplus produced by the Casa de Pedra mine; (b) the leasing and acquisition of the Casa de Pedra mine; (c) the development of a pelletizing plant supplied by iron ore produced by the Casa de Pedra mine, if CSN decides to enter into a joint venture with third parties. Conversely, CSN has the right of preference in constructing, in conjunction with the Company, any greenfield steel making project which the 18 Company decides to set up under its own control over the next five years; (2) The transfer to VALIA of its interest in CSN (10.33% of CSN total capital), (which will not participate in the CSN shareholders' agreement). These shares were valued at approximately R$ 520 million, R$ 70.22 per lot of 1000 shares, based on the weighted average price of the last thirty trading sessions at BOVESPA in the period ended on 03/09/01. This transaction generated a gain for the Company, eliminates VALIA's actuarial deficit and significantly increases the Company's borrowing capacity; and (3) This operation resulted in a gain on investments accounted for by the equity method of R$ 107,522 and a gain of R$ 10,406 on the sales of shares to VALIA, which is recorded as "others - result of investments participations". (m) On 06/05/01, at a private auction for the sale of 86,562,480 ordinary shares, 5,694,900 Class A preferred shares and 3,211,189 Class D preferred shares of Celulose Nipo-Brasileira SA (CENIBRA) equivalent to 51.48% of the capital, CVRD chose the best price offer presented by the Carthage Investment Corp., a joint venture constituted by Votorantim Celulose e Papel SA (VCP) and Aracruz Celulose SA (Aracruz), in the value of US$ 670,500. The conclusion of the purchase and sale operation was subject to certain precedent conditions among which the most important relates to the exercise, or not, of the preemptive rights detained by the Japan Brazil Paper and Pulp Resources Development Co. Ltd. (JBP), a consortium of Japanese companies which owns 48.52% of the total CENIBRA capital. On 07/06/01, JBP exercised its preemptive rights to acquire the totality of CVRD's participation in the CENIBRA capital. Under the same terms and conditions governing the purchase and sale contract for the shares in question that would have been celebrated with the Carthage Investment Corp, the winner of the private auction held by CVRD on 06/05/01. On 09/14/01, CVRD concluded the sale of Celulose Nipo-Brasileira S. A. - CENIBRA to Japan Brazil Paper and Pulp Resources Development Co., Ltda., with exercised its right to purchase 51.48% of the shares held by its subsidiary Itabira Rio Doce Company Limited - ITACO. Accordingly, JBP became sole owner of CENIBRA. (n) On 09/26/01, CVRD acquired 99.99% of the quotas of Belem - Administracoes e Participacoes Ltda for R$ 68,229, while its wholly owned subsidiary Docepar S. A. acquired the remaining 0.01%. Belem is a non-operational limited liability company that has a 9.9% holding in Empreendimentos Brasileiros de Mineracao S. A. - EBM, which in turn owns 51% of Mineracoes Brasileiras Reunidas S. A. - MBR, an unlisted Brazilian company that produces iron ore. (o) On 09/20/01, CVRD converted into capital the advances made for the future capital increase in Zagaia in the amount of R$ 1,278,175. Zagaia is a non operational company with limited liability that holds 100% of the social capital of Ferteco Mineracao S.

On 12/28/99 the Secretariat of Complementary Social Security, through Rule No. 866-SPC/COJ, approved a new Mixed-Benefits Plan. This plan, which was implemented in the second quarter of 2000, is based on the most modern concepts of private pension plans; programmed benefits are based on defined contributions not associated with the government social security benefits, and those entailing risks have the characteristic of defined benefit. A plan for deferred benefits upon severance ("vesting") was also introduced, allowing participants to remain 23 associated without the obligation for future contributions. Another advantage offered by the new plan is that it allows full repayment of all employee contributions in case of leaving the plan, along with up to 80% of the sponsor's contributions, plus gains on investments. Over 98% of active employees migrated to the new plan, thus requiring an actuarial appraisal of the new situation, using the group evaluation methodology of the former Defined Benefit Plan. This appraisal, conducted by independent actuaries, found a deficit in the mathematical reserves of the old plan, whose value was assumed by CVRD, as previously foreseen, up to the limit stated in the Company's privatization rules (disclosed through a "relevant fact" in the Official Gazette of 04/11/97). This deficit amounted to R$ 489,531 as of 04/30/00 (the final date for closing the plan to new entrants), to be amortized over 20 years, subject to monetary restatement by the IGP-DI index and interest of 6% per annum. Accordingly, considering that this deficit was formed over many years since VALIA's inception, CVRD recognized its portion up to 12/31/99 as a liability in the amount of R$ 472,847 and charged retained earnings with R$ 312,079 (net of tax effects corresponding to R$ 160,768), recorded as long-term assets under deferred income tax and social contribution. On 12/31/00 the balance totaled R$ 520,618, recorded as related party liabilities with VALIA, R$ 28,551 in current liabilities and R$ 492,067 in long-term liabilities . On 03/15/01 the Company settled its obligation by transferring the total of its interest (10.33%) in CSN to VALIA. (Note 6.9 (l)) 6.17 - Capital The Company's capital consists of 388,559,056 shares, of which 249,983,143 are common shares, 138,575,912 are preferred shares, and one is a special preferred share ("Golden Share"), all with no par value. Preferred shares have the same rights as common shares, except for the right to elect the members of the Board of Directors. They have priority to a minimum annual dividend of 6% on the portion of capital represented by this class of share. The special "Golden Share" created during the privatization in 1997 belongs to the Brazilian Government. This share gives it the right to a permanent veto of changes in the Company's name, headquarters location, nature as a mining enterprise, continuous operation of the integrated iron ore systems, mining, transportation and shipping and other matters determined in the by-laws. The Extraordinary General Meeting held on 04/25/01 approved the increase of capital from R$ 3 billion to R$ 4 billion, without issue of new shares, through the capitalization of reserves in the amount of R$ 1 billion.

These have the exclusive aim of reducing exposure to risk. We do not use derivatives for speculation purposes. 25 We monitor and evaluate our derivative positions on a regular basis and adjust our strategy in response to market conditions. We also periodically review the credit limits and credit worthiness of our counter-parties in these transactions. In view of the policies and practices established for operations with derivatives, management considers the occurrence of non-measurable risk situations as unlikely. All derivatives have been adjusted to fair market value at quarterly information date and the change included in current earnings. For the period ended 09/30/01 the movement of unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments is as follows: Net Gains (Losses) ------------------------------------------------- Interest rates Gold (libor) Currencies Total ------ -------------- ---------- -------- Gross (losses) at 09/30/01 15,861 (110,3100 (8,529) (102,978) ====== ========= ====== ======== Final maturity dates December 2005 October 2007 April 2005 (a) Interest Rate and Exchange Rate Risk Interest rate risks mainly relate to that part of the debt borrowed at floating rates. The foreign currency debt is largely subject to fluctuations in the London Interbank Offered Rate - LIBOR. That portion of local currency denominated debt that is subject to floating rates is linked to the Long Term Interest Rate - TJLP, fixed quarterly by the Brazilian Central Bank. Since May 1998, we have used derivative instruments to protect overselves against fluctuations in the LIBOR rate. There is an exchange rate risk associated with our foreign currency denominated debt. On the other hand, a substantial proportion of our revenues are denominated in, or automatically indexed to, the U.S. dollar, while the majority of costs are expressed in reais. This provides a natural hedge against any devaluation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar. When events of this nature occur, the immediate negative impact on foreign currency denominated debt is offset over time by the positive effect of devaluation on future cash flows. With the advent of a floating exchange rate regime in Brazil in January 1999, we adopted a strategy of monitoring market fluctuations, using derivatives to protect against specific risks from exchange rate variation. From time to time we enter into foreign exchange derivative swap transactions seeking to change the characteristics of our real-denominated cash investments to US dollar-indexed instruments. The extent of such transactions depends on our perception of market and currency risk, but is never speculative in nature. All such operations are marked-to-market at quarterly information date and the effect included in financial income or expense. During the nine months ended 09/30/01 our use of such instruments was not significant. (b) Commodity Risk We also use derivative instruments to manage exposure to changing gold prices. Derivatives allow the fixing of an average minimum profit level for future gold production. However, they may also have the effect of eliminating potential gains on certain price increases in the spot market for gold. We manage our contract positions actively, and the results are reviewed at least monthly, allowing adjustments to targets and strategy to be made in response to changing market conditions. In the case of gold derivatives, our policy has been to settle all contracts through cash payments or receipts, without physical delivery of product. (c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments The market values of investments are indicated in Note 6.9 (e). 26 6.21 - Exchange rate Exposure The exchange rate exposure is predominantly in U.S. dollars.

From 10/15/01 onwards the new custodian will be Banco Bradesco S. A.. This change will not affect the characteristics of the ADR program and remained as follows: RDE9600146, ADR Level II program, Class A Preferred Shares, 01 (one) ADR is equivalent to 1 (one) share, Code ISIN: BRVALEACNPA3. Merger of SAMITRI On 10/01/01 SAMITRI was merged with CVRD, according to the approval of the Extraordinary General Meeting held on 08/01/01. Conclusion of Negotiation with Baosteel On 10/18/01 having fulfilled all terms and conditions established in the contracts signed on August 21 of this year, with Shanghai Baosteel Group Corporation (BAOSTEEL), both companies formalized proceedings on 08/21/01, for implementing a business partnership. This includes the creation and co-management of a company in Brazil, BAOVALE MINERACAO S. A., as well as a long-term iron ore supply contract between CVRD and BAOSTEEL. CVRD is expected to earn a total revenue of US$ 2billion over the next twenty years as a result of this business deal. Acquisition of the Sossego Project confirming CVRD copper strategy 28 On 10/24/01 the Sossego Project was acquired by CVRD, which has an estimated 313 million tons of copper ore reserves. The Sossego project is expected to start copper and gold production by mid-2004, with an annual capacity of 140,000 tons of high-grade copper concentrate and 3 tons of gold. Share buyback program On 10/24/01 the Board of Directors authorized a share buyback program, according to the following conditions: (a) it will be limited to 5,027,429 common shares and 13,692,872 class "A" preferred shares; (b) the Company will buy the shares at the Sao Paulo Stock Exchange (BOVESPA), respecting limit prices that may be authorized during the buyback prize, up to the legal high price allowed; (c) the acquisition of these shares will be made through the following brokerage houses: Liberal S.A. Corretora de Cambio e Valores Mobiliarios, and Bradesco S.A. CTVM; (d) the share buyback program will be effective up to three months after 10/24/01. European commission approval of the CAEMI acquisition On 10/30/01 the European Commission in Brussels approved Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (CVRD) and Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (Mitsui) joint acquisition of the Brazilian mining concern CAEMI Mineracao e Metalurgia S.A. (Caemi). Once the transaction is completed CVRD and Mitsui will each own 50% of Caemi's voting shares.

Despite the increase in sales, the result for the first quarter of 2001 was substantially affected by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the real, impacting positively on export revenue but negatively on the debt of SAMITRI and its affiliate SAMARCO. In the third quarter of 2001, SAMITRI did not have any activities in the production and sale of iron ore, only maintaining the leasing of its mines to CVRD. Investments Investments are budgeted for 2001 only for replacement of the production capacity, research and environment. Leasing According to an agreement relating to mineral rights and assets and facilities signed on 04/10/01, since 05/01/01 CVRD has operated SAMITRI's mines. On the other hand, CVRD will pay SAMITRI based on a monthly fixed amount agreed by both parties in the amount of R$ 2,763. The agreement was registered at "Departamento Nacional de Producao Mineral - DNPM", the National Mineral Production Department, through Relation n 272/2001. Incorporation On October 1, 2001 SAMITRI was merged with CVRD (note 6.9 (k)). 38 8.1 - Aluminum Area - ALBRAS (Adjusted and Non-Audited) Attachment I ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information 2001 ----------- ---- 1st Quarter 2nd Quarter 3rd Quarter Total ----------- ----------- ----------- ----- Quantity sold -

ITR of Companhia Vale do Rio Doce for the quarters ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. This financial information is the responsibility of the Company's management. 2 Except as mentioned in paragraph three, our limited reviews were carried out in accordance with the specific procedures established by the IBRACON - Brazilian Institute of Independent Accountants, in conjunction with the Federal Accounting Board, and consisted mainly of: (a) inquires and discussion with the officers responsible for the Company's accounting, financial and operational areas about the procedures adopted for preparing the Quarterly Financial Information - ITR, and (b) review of the information and subsequent events which have, or may have, relevant effects on the Company's financial position and operations. 3 The financial statements at September 30, 2001 and 2000, of subsidiary, jointly-owned and associated companies, in which there are relevant investments, have not been reviewed by independent accountants. Thus, the conclusions resulting from our reviews do not cover the amounts of R$ 8,659,589 thousand (2000 - R$ 6,304,552 thousand) of these investments and R$ 1,169,439 thousand (2000 - R$ 297,231 thousand) of the income produced by them for the quarters then ended. 4 Based on our limited reviews, except for the effects of any adjustments which might have been required if the financial statements of the subsidiary, jointly-owned and associated companies mentioned in paragraph 3 had been reviewed by independent accountants, we are not aware of any relevant adjustments which should be made to the Quarterly Financial Information - ITR, referred to in paragraph 1, for it to be in accordance with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission - CVM specifically applicable to the preparation of obligatory Quarterly Financial Information - ITR. 5 The Quarterly Financial Information - ITR also contains accounting and financial information relating to the quarter ended June 30, 2001. We reviewed this information at the time of its preparation and issued our respective report on July 18, 2001, including the limitation mentioned in paragraph 3.

Item 3 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Vale do Rio Doce Press Release 3Q01 COMPANHIA VALE DO RIO DOCE PERFORMANCE IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2001 (3Q01) Rio de Janeiro, November 12, 2001 -- Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (CVRD) posted a solid R$ 1.206 billion net earnings in 2Q01, equal to earnings per share of R$ 3.15, a historical record. The gains with the sale of Cenibra, a strategic movement to focus on mining, logistics and power generation, contributed to this result. Accumulated earnings for the first nine months of 2001 amounted to R$ 2.412 billion, 50.8% higher than the R$ 1.600 billion achieved in the same period of last year. 3Q01 EBITDA reached an all time high of R$ 986 million. In the first nine months of 2001 EBITDA was R$2.450 billion, 37.2 % higher than in the same period of 2000. 3Q01 EBITDA margin was 55.5%, an all time high. Consolidated gross revenue for the first nine months of 2001 was R$ 9.016 billion. Sales of iron ore and pellets were responsible for 54% of that amount. During the same period, volumes of consolidated sales of iron ore and pellets reached 104.1 million tonnes. CVRD exports reached US$ 2.448 billion in the first nine months of 2001, accounting for 5.5% of total Brazilian exports. CVRD delivered a stronger financial and operational performance despite the slowdown in the global economy. The quality of its world class asset base is key to weather the current global recession throughout the next quarters. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] THE MACROECONOMIC SCENARIO AND ITS EFFECTS ON CVRD 2 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce A global recession but growth prospects are well alive Even prior to September 11, macroeconomic developments already pointed to weaker growth in every region of the globe. The synchronized slowdown has reflected the strong global linkages among the developed economies and between them and the developing economies, the continued weakness in the information technology sector, the deteriorating situation in Japan and worsening financing conditions for emerging markets. The United States had been the unquestioned driver of global growth since 1995. Now, with the broadening of the economic slowdown, the world economy found itself without a growth engine. The estimates indicate that the world economy is suffering its fifth recession in the last thirty years -- 1975, 1982, 1991, 1998 and 2001. While the near-term outlook is downbeat, despite the existing risks and uncertainties derived from the war against terrorism, there is a reasonable prospect for a global recovery to start by the end of 1H02. There are a number of reasons for cautious optimism. First, the main central banks of the world eased their monetary policies, acting much earlier than in previous cycles. The US short term interest rate is the lowest since 1962 and it is negative in real terms. There is room for additional easing, the main opportunities lie with the ECB and the BOJ. On the fiscal side, there is a sizable policy stimulus in the United States. Second, economic activity is likely to be bolstered by the abatement of the food and oil price shocks. Third, economic fundamentals across the globe are stronger than they were a few years ago, reflected in lower inflation, greater monetary policy credibility and more balanced public budgets. In many emerging markets, in a sharp contrast with 1997/98, more flexible exchange rate regimes are in place and external vulnerabilities were reduced, with smaller current account deficits and greater reliance on foreign direct investment flows than on short term speculative flows. Although the iron ore market is reasonably stable, the deepening of the global economic slowdown is potentially harmful to CVRD's performance. On the other hand, the continued weakness of the Brazilian Real (BRL) contributes to increase its margins, cash flow generation and return on invested capital. Additionally, an undervalued BRL stimulates export growth and, therefore, the demand for railroad and port services, one of the main CVRD businesses. Iron ore and metals markets Global steel output has fallen only marginally and the demand for iron ore remained strong. According to the International Institute for Steel and Iron (IISI), in the first nine months of 2001 steel production reached 620.0 million tonnes against 620.7 million tonnes in the same period of last year. US production has declined substantially, 11.4%, while in Asia it was up 4.6%. Japanese production declined 1.3%, with China and Taiwan showing the highest increases, 10.1% and 12.5%, respectively. In the European Union, there was a slight output reduction of 1.6%. However, since there is a close correlation between global steel crude production and global industrial production, we could expect supply cutbacks in the near future. In the last global recessions, 1991 and 1998, global crude steel production showed a similar pattern: moderate cutbacks, distributed over the recession year and the following. In 1991, reduction was 4.7% followed by a 1.9% cut in 1992. In 1998, the production cut was smaller, 2.8%, followed by an additional 0.7% in 1999. The main impact of the global steel downcycle on the demand for iron ore is a shift towards lower priced products. According to the IISI, global direct reduced iron (DRI) production, used in mini-mills, in the first nine months of 2001 is 8.4% lower than in the same period of last year. This development has a negative effect on the demand for direct reduction pellets, the highest priced iron ore product. Blast furnace mills are switching demand out of blast furnace pellets to iron ore fines. Therefore, the demand for pellets is slowing down and it will bear most of the burden of the negative outlook for steel. CVRD pellet production is expected to remain at levels below its nominal capacity throughout the next three quarters. The sales of Samarco, an affiliated company, were the first to be hurt by the negative economic environment, declining, on a quarter over quarter basis, since 1Q01. On the positive side, there are two factors. China demand for steel has remained firm and growing substantially. At the same time, in order to boost productivity, it is relying more and more on imported iron ore: on an annualized basis, iron ore imports over the January to September 2001 period reached 88.4 million tonnes, showing a dramatic 26% increase over year 2000 purchases of 70 million tonnes. In the early nineties, Chinese imports represented only 7.5% of global seaborne trade. It is 3 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce likely that its market share will amount to approximately 20% this year. According to some estimates, China is forecast to import 130 million tonnes in 2005. CVRD managed to increase its penetration into this fast growing market as evidenced by the long term contract with Baosteel, the largest Chinese steelmaker. The slowing of global trade flows is diminishing temporarily CVRD geographic disadvantage in the Asian market. Brazil-Australia freight differential into Asia is currently at the lower end of its normal range, providing CVRD more opportunities to supply the Asian market, given the superior quality and diversification of its iron ore products. Although a capacity of almost 2.0 million tonnes per year remains idled due to power shortages in the United States (Pacific Northwest), Canada and Brazil, aluminum price levels are the lowest since mid-1999, given concerns over the outlook for consumption. The Economist Metals Price Index, which comprises aluminum, copper, nickel, zinc, lead and tin prices, reached in the last few days its lowest level since 1993. At that time, it had reached the bottom of the downward trend started with the emergence of the 1991 global recession. Gold prices reacted positively in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks. However, this price hike looks like much more a spike than the beginning of an upward trend, replicating the pattern showed in the aftermath of the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990/91. Inflation rates are at low levels worldwide, central banks credibility as inflation fighters are at a historical high and the weak global economic environment has a negative impact on jewelry demand, which represents an important component of the demand for gold. CVRD aluminum and gold low cash costs and its hedging policy are helping to weather the storm in metals prices. However, the electricity rationing mandatory aluminum production curtailments, 48,000 tonnes at Albras and 11,000 tonnes at Valesul, are hurting the operating performance of its aluminum division. The recovery of global GDP growth will face a limited supply growth of primary aluminum, with brownfield additions partially offset by likely permanent smelter closures, thereby bringing opportunities for a solid price recovery. Electricity rationing in the North of Brazil is expected to be abolished by year end, reducing CVRD electricity costs in the iron ore, manganese, gold and kaolin mining operations and freeing Albras to resume its normal operations at a pace of 407,000 tonnes per year. Electricity saving targets for the Southeast region are expected to be relaxed in early 2002, lowering electricity costs in CVRD iron ore and pellets in the Southern System and allowing Valesul and the ferro-alloys subsidiary CPFL to increase production. [GRAPHIC OMITTED] CONSOLIDATED SELECTED INDICES Sales of iron ore and pellets: 104.1 million tons CVRD plans to start releasing consolidated quarterly financial statements in 1Q02. In this release, there is some information, referring to sales volumes, revenues and exports at the consolidated level. Consolidated iron ore and pellet sales comprised of: (a) sales realized by CVRD and the joint venture companies - Nibrasco, Itabrasco, Kobrasco and Hispanobras; and (b) sales by subsidiaries and affiliates, calculated in proportion to the stake held in the company by CVRD. The volume of consolidated sales is net of inter-company transactions within the CVRD group, such as, for example, the sale of pellet feed by the Parent Company to the joint venture pellet companies. This volume amounted to 5.3 million tons in 3Q01 and 15.3 million tons in the first nine months of 2001. In the first nine months of this year, the accumulated consolidated sales of 104.1 million tons was 21.7% higher than the same period in 2000. Acquisitions carried out by CVRD -- Socoimex, Samitri, Samarco, GIIC and Ferteco -- contributed to 18% of sales in 2001, 18.7 million tons, compared to 9% in the first nine months of the year. In 2001, 88.5 million tons - 85% of consolidated sales - were to external markets. The percentage sold to the domestic market in the last two years has remained practically constant for each quarter, at around 15%. Consolidated iron ore and pellet sales volume amounted to 35.8 million tons in 3Q01 and was the largest quarterly volume in CVRD's history. In the third quarter, consolidated iron ore sales increased 6.8% on the previous quarter, and 17.2% compared with the same period a year earlier. Consolidated pellet sales in 3Q01 fell 15.6% and 8.2%, compared to 2Q01 and 3Q00, respectively - 4 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce reflecting a cyclical change in the demand profile for iron ore. Japan, for example has cut its total imports of lump ore and pellets by 10.7% for the first nine months of 2001, when compared with the same period a year earlier, while purchases of iron ore fines fell by only 2.2%. 5 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce Consolidated Sales Volumes -- in million tonnes Iron Ore Pellets 9M 01 9M 01 Iron Ore 64.8 Iron Ore 80.9 Pellets 20.8 Pellets 23.2 Iron Ore Pelletss 1Q 00 17.4 6.5 2Q 00 22.9 6.6 3Q 00 24.4 7.8 4Q 00 23.4 9.1 1Q 01 25.3 7.7 2Q 01 26.8 8.5 3Q 01 28.7 7.1 Consolidated Sales Volumes -- in million tonnes Iron Ore and Pellets 9M 00 9M 01 CVRD 77.6 CVRD 84.9 Aquisitions* 8 Aquisitions 19.2 CVRD Aquisitions 1Q 00 23.9 2Q 00 27.1 2.4 3Q 00 26.7 5.5 4Q 00 27.7 4.8 1Q 01 27.2 5.8 2Q 01 27.3 8 3Q 01 30.5 5.3 * Acquisitions: SOCOIMEX, SAMITRI, SAMARCO, GIIC, FERTECO. 6 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce EXPORTS OF US$ 2.446 BILLION CVRD's consolidated gross revenues for the period January to September 2001 amounted to R$ 9.016 billion. The breakdown of the main items that made up these revenues was as follows: iron ore and pellets (53.6%), transport services (13.0%), aluminum (10.5%), steel (10.5%) and manganese and ferro alloys (5.3%). Exports totalling US$ 2.446 billion accounted for 62% of total revenues, sales by subsidiaries and foreign affiliates, 15.1% and 22.9% to the domestic market. Thus 84.9% of CVRD's consolidated revenues was denominated in U.S. dollars.

For the first nine months of 2001, accumulated earnings amounted to R$ 2.412 billion, 50.8% higher than the same period last year and 13.1% more than that recorded for the whole of 2000 (R$ 2.133 billion). On an annualized basis, return on equity (ROE) in 2001 amounted to 28.2% against 20.2% in 2000. Gross margin widened from 47.7% in 2Q01 to 51.4% in 3Q01, the highest since 2Q00. Net operating revenues rose by R$ 237 million, while the cost of goods sold (COGS) increased by R$ 58 million. Power rationing was an influencing factor in pushing up COGS. Increases in costs of contracted services - up by R$ 21.2 million, and consumption of fuel oil - up by R$ 15.3 million, were partially explained by the rent and use of diesel oil electricity generators. 7 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce Quarterly Net Income and Gross Margin R$ millions 1Q 00 639 0.473 2Q 00 462 0.525 3Q 00 499 0.491 4Q 00 533 0.478 1Q 01 660 0.469 2Q 01 546 0.477 3Q 01 1206 0.514 Cost of Goods Sold* - Parent Company 3Q 01 R$ 661 million R$ millions 1Q 00 2Q 00 3Q 00 4Q 00 1Q 01 2Q 01 3Q 01 Personnel 95 104 104 104 97 104.8 127 Material 88 95 100 92 92 86.2 109 Fuel 55 61 69 71 74 71.7 87 Electrical Energy 15 18 19 19 18 21.8 31 Outsourced Services 56 61 64 87 95 100.8 122 Depreciation and Depletion 68 67 68 67 111 106.4 129 Others 56 61 60 57 46 57.2 56 --------- * Excludes expenses with product acquisitions 8 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce The evolution of operational revenues The Parent Company's net operating revenues amounted to R$ 1.778 billion in the third quarter, compared to R$ 1.541 billion in 2Q01 and R$ 1.264 billion in 3Q00, reflecting the positive impact of exchange rate devaluation and the growth in iron ore sales. In the first nine months of 2001, the net revenue achieved of R$ 4.640 billion, was 27.8% higher than that reported in the same period in 2000, which saw revenues of R$ 3.632 billion. Gross revenue in the third quarter from pellet and iron ore sales amounted to R$ 1.423 billion, up 21.5% on the previous quarter, and up 57.8% YoY. Iron ore and pellet sales volumes in the Parent Company amounted to 34.8 million tons of in 3Q01, 11.5% higher than the previous quarter and up 16.7% on 3Q00. From June 2001, Samitri's iron ore sales were handled by CVRD. Sales by the Parent Company consisted of: (a) iron ore sales, including pellet feed to joint venture companies (JVs); and (b) the sale of pellets produced by CVRD's two pellet plants and those pellets acquired from the JVs. In 3Q01, CVRD purchased 2.3 million tons of pellets from the JVs, which brought total pellet purchases in the first nine months of 2001 to 7.6 million tons, compared to 7.0 million tons in the same period last year. The average sales price for iron ore and pellets in 3Q01 amounted to US$16.68 per ton, slightly higher than that recorded in 2Q01 - of US$ 16.04 per ton and in 3Q00 -- of US$16.31 per ton. The rise in average sales prices was lower than the 2001 increase in reference prices due to the change in product mix. The 3.6 million ton increase in the sales of iron ore and pellets in the third quarter, compared to 2Q01, was in part due to expansion seen in Asian markets. China's foreign purchases of iron ore in 3Q01, which amounted to 24.2 million tons, were up 7.8% on the previous quarter. CVRD's exports to China doubled from 2.8 million to 5.6 million tons, comparing the same two periods. China, therefore, became the Parent Company's main iron ore market in 3Q01, exceeding sales to Brazilian steel plants -- 5.2 million tons -- and Japan -- 4.3 million tons. In the first nine months of this year, CVRD's sales to China jumped 76.9% compared to the same period in 2000. This reflected CVRD's successful marketing policy in exporting to the world's fastest growing economy - China has increased its iron ore imports by an annual average of 15% during the period 1992/2001. General cargo (all cargo except for iron ore and pellets) transported by CVRD's railroads of Carajas and Vitoria to Minas - amounted to 3.325 billion ton kilometers in 3Q01. This is practically the same as the figure achieved in 2Q01 of 3.350 billion ton kilometers, but 3.9% less than that seen in 3Q00, reflecting the slowdown in the growth of the Brazilian economy. General cargo handled for clients in the Parent Company's ports (Tubarao, Ponta da Madeira and TMIB) totalled 5.9 million tons in 3Q01, an increase of 7.3% on the previous quarter and up 18% YoY. Revenues generated from providing railfreight and port services amounted to R$ 256 million in 3Q01, compared to R$ 281 million in 2Q01 and R$256 million in 3Q00. Gold sales totalled 4.49 tons, an increase of 25.7% on the previous quarter and up 5.1% compared to 3Q00. The average sales price in the first nine months of the year was US$ 272.86 per ounce, 1.5% higher than the average COMEX price of US$ 268.89 per ounce. Revenues derived from gold sales amounted to R$ 102.6 million, 41.8% higher than the previous quarter and up 48.9% YoY. 9 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce Sales Volumes Iron Ore and Pellets - Parent Company General Cargo Transportation* - million tonnes Railways Parent Company - million of TKU Iron Ore Pellets EFVM EFC -------- ------- ---- --- 1Q 00 22.6 4.1 1Q 00 2389 308 2Q 00 26.3 3.3 2Q 00 2702 398 3Q 00 26 3.8 3Q 00 3054 407 4Q 00 26.2 4.4 4Q 00 2805 380 1Q 01 26.6 3.6 1Q 01 2642 346 2Q 01 27 4.2 2Q 01 2803 547 3Q 01 31 3.8 3Q 01 2839 486 ------------- * except iron ore and pellets General Cargo Transportation - FCA General Cargo Handling* - Ports millions of TKU Parent Company - million tonnes EFVM Ports ---- ----- 1Q 00 2014 1Q 00 3.9 2Q 00 2074 2Q 00 4.5 3Q 00 1903 3Q 00 5 4Q 00 1661 4Q 00 5.1 1Q 01 1961 1Q 01 4.4 2Q 01 2236 2Q 01 5.5 3Q 01 2161 3Q 01 5.9 ------------- * except iron ore and pellets Iron Ore and Pellets Sales by Market Parent Company -- in million tonnes 9M 00 9M 01 ----- ----- Brazil - JV's 19% Brazil - JV's 16% Brazil - Steel Mills 13% Brazil - Steel Mills 16% Europe 24% Europe 25% Japan 16% Japan 13% China 7% China 12% Asia - others 9% Asia - others 8% Others 12% Others 10% Gross Revenue by Product -- Parent Company -- R$ billion 9M 00 9M 01 ----- ----- Iron Ore 53% Iron Ore 57% Pellets 17% Pellets 17% Railroad Services 15% Railroad Services 13% Port Services 4% Port Services 4% Potash 3% Potash 3% Manganese and Others 3% Gold 5% Gold 5% Others 1% 10 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce Sources of earnings growth Comparing earnings in 3Q01 with that of the previous quarter, the main reason for the increase in the result was the non-operational item of R$ 1.420 billion, from the profit of R$ 1.472 billion derived from the sale of Cenibra. The drop in equity income of R$ 275 million, the R$ 289 million negative impact caused by the rise in the USD against the BRL on the Company's dollar- denominated debt, and a R$ 684 million increase in other operating expenses, all combined to partially offset the increased profit recorded by CVRD for 3Q01. Equity income was a negative R$ 5 million, and reflected the worst performance by CVRD's subsidiaries and affiliates since 3Q99. The segments to show a loss in the period were logistics - a loss of R$ 86 million, and aluminum, with a loss of R$ 125 million. The negative result in the logistics segment was due to a loss of R$ 13 million by MRS Logistica and provisions made by Docenave for losses from the sale of ships and non-use of tax credits, of R$ 95 million and R$ 25 million, respectively. Losses in the aluminum segment consisted of a R$ 196 million loss by Albras and a loss of R$ 128 million by Alunorte. Losses in both these companies were basically due to the effect of the BRL depreciation against the USD, on dollar-denominated debt. Production of primary aluminum by Albras was down due to power rationing, falling from 93,400 tons in 2Q01 to 76,800 tons in 3Q01. As a consequence, sales totalled 80,000 tons compared to 92,000 tons in 2T01 and 93,000 in 3Q00. The average sales price in the period January/September was US$ 1,463 per ton, 4.1% higher than the average London Metal Exchange three month contract of US$ 1,406 per ton. EBITDA for Albras in 3Q01 amounted to R$ 25 million, down 81.7% on the previous quarter and down 76.4%, YoY. In the case of Alunorte, EBITDA has remained steady at around R$ 64 million, quarter on quarter, but was up 42.2% YoY. Equity income from subsidiaries and affiliates in the iron ore segment amounted to R$ 83 million in 3Q01, down R$ 59 million on the previous quarter. This deterioration was mainly due to losses suffered by Samarco of R$48 million, a loss by Kobrasco of R$ 72 million, and Nibrasco of R$ 34 million. Samarco's pellet and pellet feed sales volume totalled 2.2 million tons in 3Q01. For the third consecutive quarter, Samarco showed shrinking sales. GIIC's pellet sales volume came to 662,000 tons in the third quarter, compared to 861,000 in 2Q01 and 1.05 million in 3Q00. Samarco's EBITDA was R$ 82.1 million in 3Q01, down 7.1% QoQ and 13.5% YoY. Ferteco sold 3.3 million tons of iron ore and 549,000 tons of pellets in 3Q01. Ferteco's 3Q01 EBITDA was R$ 32.3 million. Equity income from the manganese and ferro alloy segments was practically unchanged at R$ 26 million. Sales of manganese ore by Sibra and Urucum amounted to 197,000 tons in 3Q01, up 44.4% on 2Q01 and up 61.2% YoY. Volume sold in the first nine months of 2001 amounted to 564,300 tons, 21.9% higher than in the same period a year earlier. The rationing of electricity consumption was the main factor behind the drop in sales of ferro alloys in 3Q01. With the exception of RDME, located in France, all the subsidiaries, SIBRA, CPFL and Urucum, were forced to cut back production. Sales, therefore, in the third quarter amounted to 82,600 tons, compared to 92,800 in 2Q01 and 104,000 in 3Q00. The rise of R$ 684 million in other operational expenses is explained by the increase in provisions made for losses in subsidiaries and affiliates, and goodwill amortization of R$ 535 million, the reversal of ICMS tax credits of R$ 127 million, exhaustion of the gold mines in Igarape Bahia and Fazenda Brasileiro (R$ 55 million), and the restoration of environmentally degraded areas (R$ 40 million). The main provisions for losses in subsidiaries and affiliates are comprised by: FCA (R$ 108 million), PPSA (R$ 104 million), and CFN (R$ 33 million). Goodwill amortization totaled R$ 297 million comprised by FCA (R$ 139 million), PPSA (R$ 75 million), GIIC (R$ 60 million) and SIBRA (R$ 19 million). 11 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce Factors that Affected Net Earnings R$ million 2Q 01 546 Non Operational Income 546 1420 Income Tax 1966 434 Net Revenue 2400 237 COGS 2579 58 Financial Result 2487 92 Monetary Variation 2198 289 Equity Income 1923 275 Operating Expenses 1206 717 3Q 01 1206 Equity Income * R$ million 1Q 00 251 2Q 00 229 3Q 00 297 4Q 00 206 1Q 01 202 2Q 01 270 3Q 01 -5 ------------- * Excluding capital gains from assets sales 12 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Companhia Press Release 3Q01 Vale do Rio Doce EBITDA - Aluminum R$ million ALBRAS ALUNORTE ------ -------- 1Q 00 114 51 2Q 00 88 45 3Q 00 106 45 4Q 00 117 35 1Q 01 122 51 2Q 01 137 65 3Q 01 25 64 RECORD QUARTERLY EBITDA: R$ 986 MILLION EBITDA in 3Q01 amounted to R$ 986 million, the highest quarterly figure achieved in the Company's history. This was 27.2% higher than that reported in 2Q01 and almost double that achieved in 3Q00. Dividends received totalled R$ 114 million, representing 11.6% of EBITDA. EBITDA margin in 3Q01 was recorded at 55.5%, also the highest in CVRD's history. Company's capacity to convert revenues into operational profits was enhanced by the weakness of the BRL. The quarter-on-quarter EBITDA increase of R$ 211 million was the result of a R$ 237 million rise in net operating revenues and R$ 58 million in dividends received, though this was partially offset by a rise in the cost of goods sold (COGS) of R$ 58 million and an increase in administrative expenses of R$ 19 million. In the first nine months of 2001, EBITDA totalled R$ 2.450 billion, compared to R$ 1.786 billion in the same period a year earlier, up, therefore by 37.0%.
