SUMMARY
The following summary highlights certain information contained elsewhere in this offering memorandum and is
qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information and consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this
offering memorandum. Because this is a summary, it may not contain all of the information that is important to you in
making a decision to invest in the Notes. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully read the entire
offering memorandum, including the "Risk Factors" and "Important Information and Cautionary Statement Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements" sections, our audited combined and consolidated financial statements and the notes to
those statements included in this offering memorandum.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, when we refer to "we", "our", "us", and "the Company" for purposes of this
offering memorandum, we are referring to Constellium N.V. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The Company
Overview
We are a global leader in the design and manufacture of a broad range of innovative specialty rolled and extruded
aluminum products, serving primarily the aerospace, packaging and automotive end-markets. We have a strategic
footprint of manufacturing facilities located in the United States, Europe and China. Our business model is to add value by
converting aluminum into semi-fabricated products. We believe we are the supplier of choice to numerous blue-chip
customers for many value-added products with performance-critical applications. Our product portfolio commands higher
margins as compared to less differentiated, more commoditized fabricated aluminum products, such as common alloy
coils, paintstock, foilstock and soft alloys for construction and distribution.
As of December 31, 2013, we operated 23 production facilities, 10 administrative and commercial sites and one
research and development ("R&D") center, and have approximately 8,600 employees. We believe our portfolio of flexible
and integrated facilities is among the most technologically advanced in the industry. It is our view that our established
presence in the United States and Europe and our growing presence in China strategically position us to service our
global customer base. For example, based on information available to us as an industry participant, we believe we are
one of only two suppliers of aluminum products to the aerospace market with facilities in both the United States and
Europe. We believe this gives us a key competitive advantage in servicing the needs of our aerospace customers,
including Airbus S.A.S. ("Airbus") and The Boeing Company ("Boeing"). We believe our well-invested facilities combined
with more than 50 years of manufacturing experience, quality and innovation and pre-eminent R&D capabilities have put
us in a leadership position in our core markets.
We seek to sell to end-markets that have attractive characteristics for aluminum, including (i) higher margin
products, (ii) stability through economic cycles, and (iii) favorable growth fundamentals supported by customer order
backlogs in aerospace and substitution trends in automotive and European can sheet. We are the leading global supplier
of aluminum aerospace plates, the leading European supplier of can body stock and a leading global supplier of
automotive structures. Our unique platform has enabled us to develop a stable and diversified customer base and to enjoy
long-standing relationships with our largest customers. Our relationships with our top 20 customers average over 25
years. Our customer base includes market leading firms in aerospace, automotive, and packaging, like Airbus, Boeing,
Rexam PLC ("Rexam"), Ball Corporation, Crown Holdings, Inc. and several premium automotive original equipment
manufacturers ("OEMs"), including BMW AG, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen AG. We believe that we are a "mission
critical" supplier to many of our customers due to our technological and R&D capabilities as well as the long and complex
qualification process required for many of our products. Our core products require close collaboration and, in many
instances, joint development with our customers.
For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, we shipped approximately 1,058 kt, 1,033 kt and 1,025 kt
of finished products, generated revenues of 3,556 million, 3,610 million and 3,495 million, incurred net losses of 178
million and generated net income of 141 million and 100 million respectively, and generated Adjusted EBITDA of 156
million, 223 million and 280 million, respectively. The financial performance for the year ended December 31, 2013
represented a 1% decrease in shipments, a 3% decrease in revenues and a 26% increase in Adjusted EBITDA from the
prior year. Please see the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations--Covenant Compliance and Financial Ratios."
Our Operating Segments
Our business is organized into three operating segments: (i) Aerospace & Transportation ("A&T"), (ii) Packaging &
Automotive Rolled Products ("P&ARP"), and (iii) Automotive Structures & Industry ("AS&I").

Revenue by geographic zone is based on the destination of the shipment.
Aerospace & Transportation Operating Segment
Our Aerospace & Transportation operating segment has market leadership positions in technologically advanced
aluminum and specialty materials products with wide applications across the global aerospace, defense, transportation,
and industrial sectors. We offer a wide range of products including plate, sheet, extrusions and precision casting products
which allows us to offer tailored solutions to our customers. We seek to differentiate our products and act as a key partner
to our customers through our broad product range, advanced R&D capabilities, extensive recycling capabilities and
portfolio of plants with an extensive range of capabilities across Europe and North America. In order to reinforce the
competitiveness of our metal solutions, we design our processes and alloys with a view to optimizing our customers'
operations and costs. This includes offering services such as customizing alloys to our customers' processing
requirements, processing short lead time orders and providing vendor managed inventories or tolling arrangements. The
Aerospace & Transportation operating segment accounted for 34% of our revenues and 45% of Management Adjusted
EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Eight of our manufacturing facilities produce products that are sold via our Aerospace & Transportation operating
segment. Our aerospace plate manufacturing facilities in Ravenswood (West Virginia, United States), Issoire (France) and
Sierre (Switzerland) offer the full spectrum of plate required by the aerospace industries (alloys, temper, dimensions, pre-
machined) and have unique capabilities such as producing some wide and very high gauge plates required for some
aerospace programs (civil and commercial).
Downstream aluminum products for the aerospace market require relatively high levels of R&D investment and
advanced technological capabilities, and therefore tend to command higher margins compared to more commoditized
products. We work in close collaboration with our customers to develop highly engineered solutions to fulfill their specific
requirements. For example, we developed AIRWARE®, a lightweight specialty aluminum-lithium alloy for our aerospace
customers to address increasing demand for lighter and more environmentally sound aircraft; it combines optimized
density, corrosion resistance and strength in order to achieve up to 25% weight reduction compared to other aluminum
products and significantly higher corrosion and fatigue resistance than equivalent composite products. In addition, unlike
composite products, any scrap produced in the AIRWARE® manufacturing process can be fully recycled, which reduces
production costs. We are the first company to commercialize and produce AIRWARE®, on an industrial scale, and the
material is currently being used on a number of major aircraft models, including the newest Airbus A350 XWB aircraft, the
fuselage of Bombardier's single-aisle twinjet C-Series short-haul planes, the Airbus A380 and the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
We recently announced plans to significantly increase the industrial capacity of our Issoire, France plant to meet
accelerating demand for our AIRWARE® technology through ramped-up production at two new state-of-the-art
casthouses. Our customer base includes Airbus, Boeing, Embraer, Dassault, Bombardier and Lockheed Martin.
