*EBITDA in 2Q 2024 includes a $171 million loss from the provision for
ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas. If this charge was not included EBITDA would have amounted
to $821 million, or 24.7% of sales.
Net sales in the third quarter were affected by lower prices in the Americas
and lower demand in the USA, Mexico and Saudi Arabia as well as lower line pipe shipments in Argentina. Margins were relatively resilient
with our EBITDA margin falling 1.1% quarter on quarter on a comparable basis while net income recovered after the extraordinary provisions
recorded by Tenaris and its associate company Ternium in the last quarter.
During the quarter, our free cash flow amounted to $373 million and, after
spending $182 million on share buybacks, our positive net cash position amounted to $4.0 billion at September 30, 2024.
Interim Dividend Payment
Our board of directors approved the payment of
an interim dividend of $0.27 per share ($0.54 per ADS), or approximately $300 million, according to the following timetable:
| · | Payment date: November 20, 2024 |
| · | Record date: November 19, 2024 |
| · | Ex-dividend for securities listed in Europe: November 18, 2024 |
| · | Ex-dividend for securities listed in the United States and Mexico: November 19, 2024 |
Follow-on Share Buyback Program
Tenaris’s Board of Directors approved a
$700 million follow-on share buyback program under the authority granted by the annual general meeting of shareholders held on June 2,
2020.
Under the previous $1.2 billion share buyback,
which ran from November 5, 2023 to August 2, 2024, the Company purchased a total number of ordinary shares representing 6.07% of its total
issued share capital measured as at the launch of the program. This follow-on share buyback program will cover up to $700 million (excluding
customary transaction fees), subject to a maximum of 46,373,915 ordinary shares representing the remainder 3.93% of the Company’s
issued share capital (measured also as at the launch of the original program) that may be repurchased under the above-referred authority
(which authorizes repurchases up to a maximum of 10% of the share capital).
The decision and opportunity of launching this
follow-on buyback program is driven by the Company’s significant cash flow generation and strong balance sheet.
The follow-on buyback program is expected to be
launched in the near future and finish by March 26, 2025. It will be executed by a primary financial institution on the Milan Stock Exchange,
with the intention to cancel the ordinary shares acquired through the program.
The buybacks may be ceased, paused and continued
at any time, subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Tenaris will provide updates on the buyback program via press releases
and on the Investors section of its corporate website. The buybacks will be carried out subject to market conditions and in compliance
with applicable laws and regulations, including the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 and the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052.
Market Background and Outlook
Oil prices appear relatively stable and support industry investment despite
uncertainty about Asian demand growth and geopolitical tensions.
The decline in OCTG prices in North America that we have seen over the
past two years has now come to an end as drilling activity has stabilized and the level of US OCTG imports has come down.
The new government in Mexico is implementing its energy policy, drilling
activity in the near term is subdued, while next year we expect that it will recover. In Argentina, the economic environment is improving,
which should support investment in pipeline infrastructure and drilling activity in the Vaca Muerta shale.
In the Middle East, while gas drilling activity remains at a stable level,
we see some reduction in oil activity and rationalization of inventories, including pipes, to protect cash flow.
In the fourth quarter, our sales and EBITDA will be lower than the third
quarter, affected by lower sales in Mexico and Saudi Arabia and the delayed impact of OCTG pricing in the Americas. Overall, our 2024
second half results will be in line with our investor day guidance in September. Going into 2025, we expect our sales and EBITDA to recover
with an increase in shipments in North America and the Middle East and a rebound in OCTG prices in North America.

Net sales of tubular products and services decreased 11% sequentially
and 10% year on year. Sequentially, volumes decreased 9% and average selling prices excluding the coating services on third parties pipes
decreased 2%. In North America sales declined due to lower prices throughout the region and lower activity in the United States and Mexico.
In South America we had lower pipeline sales in Argentina and lower conductor sales in Brazil partially compensated by a start of shipments
to the Raia offshore line pipe project. In Europe sales increased thanks to the continued shipments to the Sakarya offshore line pipe
project and higher sales of OCTG in Romania and Turkey which more than compensated for lower sales in the North Sea. In Asia Pacific,
Middle East and Africa further sales in Saudi Arabia under inventory replenishment program, stable sales to the United Arab Emirates and
a high level of shipments to Iraq, attenuated a drop in sales in sub-Saharan Africa, China and the rest of the Middle East.
Operating results from tubular products and services amounted to
a gain of $527 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to a gain of $459 million in the previous quarter and a gain of $841 million
in the third quarter of 2023. In the second quarter of 2024 our Tubes operating income included a $171 million loss from the provision
for ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas and a $14 million gain from a positive legal claim resolution
in Mexico. Excluding these two effects Tubes operating income in the second quarter of 2024 would have amounted to $616 million and the
current quarter would have been 14% lower following the decline in prices and sales.
Others
The following table indicates, for our Others business segment, net sales,
operating income and operating income as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated below:
Others | |

| | | |
| 19.0 | % | |
| | |
Net sales of other products and services decreased 35% sequentially
and decreased 13% year on year. Sequentially, sales declined mainly due to lower sales of coiled tubing, sucker rods and oil services
in Argentina.
Selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A,
amounted to $454 million, or 15.6% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $497 million, 15.0% in the previous quarter
and $433 million, 13.4% in the third quarter of 2023. Sequentially, the decline in SG&A is mainly due to lower shipment costs due
to a reduction in volumes shipped and a decrease in services and fees, taxes and others.
Other operating results amounted to a gain of $11 million in the
third quarter of 2024, compared to a loss of $170 million in the previous quarter and a $36 million gain in the third quarter of 2023.
In the second quarter of 2024 we recorded a $171 million loss from provision for ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation
in Usiminas.
Financial results amounted to a gain of $48 million in the third
quarter of 2024, compared to a gain of $57 million in the previous quarter and a gain of $67 million in the third quarter of 2023. Financial
result of the quarter is mainly attributable to a $50 million net finance income from the net return of our portfolio investments offset
by other financial results.
Equity in earnings (losses) of non-consolidated companies generated
a gain of $8 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to a loss of $83 million in the previous quarter and a loss of $110 million
in the third quarter of 2023. These results are mainly derived from our participation in Ternium (NYSE:TX). The previous quarter included
an $83 million loss from the provision for ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas on our investment
in Ternium.
Income tax charge amounted to $134 million in the third quarter
of 2024, compared to $138 million in the previous quarter and $278 million in the third quarter of 2023. With a similar income before
equity earnings of non-consolidated companies and income tax, the tax charge of the quarter was sequentially lower mainly due to a lower
impact of the foreign exchange devaluation in Mexico on the fiscal values of fixed assets and inventory.
Cash Flow and Liquidity of 2024 Third Quarter
Net cash generated by operating activities during the third quarter of
2024 was $552 million, compared to $935 million in the previous quarter and $1.3 billion in the third quarter of 2023. During the third
quarter of 2024 cash generated by operating activities includes a net working capital reduction of $48 million.
With capital expenditures of $179 million, our free cash flow amounted
to $373 million during the quarter. After share buybacks of $182 million in the quarter, our net cash position amounted to $4.0 billion
at September 30, 2024.

*EBITDA in 9M 2024 includes a $174 million loss from the provision for
ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas. If this charge was not included EBITDA would have amounted
to $2,499 million, or 25.8% of sales.
Our sales in the first nine months of 2024 decreased 15% compared to the
first nine months of 2023 as volumes of tubular products shipped decreased 4%, tubes average selling prices decreased 15% excluding the
coating services on third parties pipes, while sales in the Others segment remained flat. Following the decrease in sales, mainly due
to the tubes average price decline, EBITDA margin declined from 34% to 24% and EBITDA declined 40%. EBITDA in the first nine months of
2024 includes a $174 million loss from the provision for ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas,
included in other operating expenses. Additionally, related to the same case, net income includes an $86 million loss from our participation
in Ternium.
Cash flow provided by operating activities amounted to $2.4 billion during
the first nine months of 2024, including a a reduction in working capital of $324 million. After capital expenditures of $512 million,
our free cash flow amounted to $1.9 billion. Following a dividend payment of $459 million in May 2024 and share buybacks for $985 million
in the nine months, our positive net cash position amounted to $4.0 billion at the end of September 2024.

Net sales of tubular products and services decreased 16% to $9,212
million in the first nine months of 2024, compared to $10,987 million in the first nine months of 2023 due to a 4% decrease in volumes
and a 15% decrease in average selling prices excluding the coating services on third parties pipes. Price declines were concentrated in
the Americas, more so in North America, and were partially offset by increases in Europe and Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa.
Operating results from tubular products and services amounted to
a gain of $1,772 million in the first nine months of 2024 compared to a gain of $3,403 million in the first nine months of 2023. The decline
in operating results is mainly due to the decline in average selling prices and the corresponding impact on margins. Additionally, in
the first nine months of 2024 our Tubes operating income includes a charge of $174 million loss from the provision for ongoing litigation
related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas, included in other operating expenses. On the other hand, operating income in
the first nine months of 2024 includes gains amounting to $39 million from positive legal claims resolutions in Mexico and Brazil.

Net sales of other products and services which amounted to $467
million in the first nine months of 2024 remained flat in comparison to the the first nine months of 2023 as an increase in sales of oilfield
services in Argentina and coiled tubing offset a decline in sales of sucker rods, excess raw materials and energy.
Operating results from other products and services amounted to a
gain of $88 million in the first nine months of 2024, compared to a gain of $94 million in the first nine months of 2023. Results were
mainly derived from our sucker rods business, coiled tubing and our oilfield services business in Argentina.
Selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, amounted
to $1,459 million in the first nine months of 2024, representing 15.1% of sales, and $1,449 million in the first nine months of 2023,
representing 12.6% of sales. SG&A expenses increased as a percentage of sales due to the 15% decline in revenues, mainly due to lower
Tubes average selling prices, and an increase of fixed costs partially offset by a reduction in selling expenses.
Other operating results amounted to a loss of $146 million in the
first nine months of 2024, compared to a gain of $41 million in the same period of 2023. In the first nine months of 2024 we recorded
a $174 million loss from provision for ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas. In the first nine
months of 2023 other operating income includes a non-recurring gain of $33 million corresponding to the transfer of the awards related
to the Company’s Venezuelan nationalized assets.
Financial results amounted to a gain of $81 million in the first
nine months of 2024, compared to a gain of $128 million in the first nine months of 2023. While net finance income increased due to a
higher net financial position, other financial results were negatively affected by a cumulative result of the U.S. dollar denominated
Argentine bond previously recognized in other comprehensive income, while foreign exchange results decreased in the first nine months
of 2024 in respect to the same period of 2023.
Equity in (losses) earnings of non-consolidated companies generated
a loss of $27 million in the first nine months of 2024, compared to a gain of $39 million in the first nine months of 2023. These results
were mainly derived from our equity investment in Ternium (NYSE:TX) and in the first nine months of 2024 were negatively affected by an
$86 million loss from the provision for ongoing litigation related to the acquisition of a participation in Usiminas on our Ternium investment.
Income tax amounted to a charge of $357 million in the first nine
months of 2024, compared to $852 million in the first nine months of 2023. The lower income tax charge reflects mainly the reduction in
results at several subsidiaries.
Cash Flow and Liquidity of 2024 First Nine Months
Net cash provided by operating activities during the first nine months
of 2024 amounted to $2.4 billion (including a reduction in working capital of $324 million), compared to cash provided by operations of
$3.6 billion (net of a reduction in working capital of $248 million) in the first nine months of 2023.
Capital expenditures amounted to $512 million in the first nine months
of 2024, compared to $453 million in the first nine months of 2023. Free cash flow amounted to $1.9 billion in the first nine months of
2024, compared to $3.1 billion in the first nine months of 2023.
Following a dividend payment of $459 million in May 2024 and share buybacks
of $985 million in the nine months, our positive net cash position amounted to $4.0 billion at the end of September 2024.

Exhibit I – Alternative performance measures
Alternative performance measures should be considered in addition to, not
as substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
EBITDA, Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization.
EBITDA provides an analysis of the operating results excluding depreciation
and amortization and impairments, as they are recurring non-cash variables which can vary substantially from company to company depending
on accounting policies and the accounting value of the assets. EBITDA is an approximation to pre-tax operating cash flow and reflects
cash generation before working capital variation. EBITDA is widely used by investors when evaluating businesses (multiples valuation),
as well as by rating agencies and creditors to evaluate the level of debt, comparing EBITDA with net debt.
EBITDA is calculated in the following manner:
EBITDA = Net income for the period + Income tax charges +/- Equity in Earnings
(losses) of non-consolidated companies +/- Financial results + Depreciation and amortization +/- Impairment charges/(reversals).
EBITDA is a non-IFRS alternative performance measure.

capital expenditures. FCF represents the cash that a company is able to generate after spending the money required to maintain or expand
its asset base.
Free cash flow is calculated in the following manner:
Free cash flow = Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities - Capital expenditures.
Free cash flow is a non-IFRS alternative performance measure.

Net Cash / (Debt)
This is the net balance of cash and cash equivalents, other current investments
and fixed income investments held to maturity less total borrowings. It provides a summary of the financial solvency and liquidity of
the company. Net cash / (debt) is widely used by investors and rating agencies and creditors to assess the company’s leverage, financial
strength, flexibility and risks.
Net cash/ debt is calculated in the following manner:
Net cash = Cash and cash equivalents + Other investments (Current and Non-Current)+/- Derivatives
hedging borrowings and investments - Borrowings (Current and Non-Current).
Net cash/debt is a non-IFRS alternative performance measure.

components of current assets and current liabilities. Operating working capital is a measure of a company’s operational efficiency,
and short-term financial health.
Operating working capital days is calculated in the following manner:
Operating working capital days = [(Inventories + Trade receivables –
Trade payables – Customer advances) / Annualized quarterly sales ] x 365.
Operating working capital days is a non-IFRS alternative performance measure.
