(1) It includes the investment held in Finma S.A.I.F., Techinst S.A., Recrotek S.R.L. de C.V. and Gas Industrial de Monterrey S.A. de C.V. (a)Usinas Siderurgicas de Minas Gerais S.A. – USIMINAS As of December 31, 2021, Ternium, through its subsidiaries, owns a total of 242.6 million ordinary shares and 8.5 million preferred shares, representing 20.4% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Usinas Siderurgicas de Minas Gerais S.A. – USIMINAS (“Usiminas”), the largest flat steel producer in Brazil for the energy, automotive and other industries. Ternium, through its subsidiaries, together with Tenaris S.A.’s Brazilian subsidiary Confab Industrial S.A. (“TenarisConfab”), are part of Usiminas’ control group, comprising the so-called T/T Group. As at December 31, 2021, the Usiminas control group holds, in the aggregate, 483.6 million ordinary shares bound to the Usiminas shareholders’ agreement, representing approximately 68.6% of Usiminas’ voting capital. The Usiminas control group, which is bound by a long-term shareholders’ agreement that governs the rights and obligations of Usiminas’ control group members, is currently composed of three sub-groups: the T/T Group; the NSC Group, comprising Nippon Steel Corporation (“NSC”), Metal One Corporation and Mitsubishi Corporation; and Usiminas’ pension fund Previdência Usiminas. The T/T Group holds approximately 47.1% of the total shares held by the control group (39.5% corresponding to the Ternium entities and the other 7.6% corresponding to TenarisConfab); the NSC Group holds approximately 45.9% of the total shares held by the control group; and Previdência Usiminas holds the remaining 7%. 13. INVESTMENTS IN NON-CONSOLIDATED COMPANIES (continued) The corporate governance rules reflected in the Usiminas shareholders agreement provide, among other things, that Usiminas’ executive board will be composed of six members, including the chief executive officer and five vice-presidents, with Ternium and NSC nominating three members each. The right to nominate Usiminas’ chief executive officer alternates between Ternium and NSC at every 4-year interval, with the party that does not nominate the chief executive officer having the right to nominate the chairman of Usiminas’ board of directors for the same 4-year period. The Usiminas shareholders agreement also provides for an exit mechanism consisting of a buy-and-sell procedure—exercisable at any time after November 16, 2022 and applicable with respect to shares held by NSC and the T/T Group—, which would allow either Ternium or NSC to purchase all or a majority of the Usiminas shares held by the other shareholder. As of December 31, 2021, the closing price of the Usiminas ordinary and preferred shares, as quoted on the BM&F Bovespa Stock Exchange, was BRL 14.51 (approximately $2.60; December 31, 2020: BRL15.69 - $3.02) per ordinary share and BRL15.16 (approximately $2.72; December 31, 2019: BRL14.61 - $2.81) per preferred share, respectively. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2021, Ternium’s ownership stake had a market value of approximately $653.9 million ($756.3 million as of December 31, 2020) and a carrying value of $681.7 million ($422.9 million as of December 31, 2020). Considering that the market value of Usiminas was slightly below the book value as of December 31, 2021, the Company tested the recoverability of its investment in Usiminas as of such date, resulting in no impairment charges to be recognized. Furthermore, the Company reviews periodically the recoverability of its investment in Usiminas. To determine the recoverable value, the Company estimates the value in use of the investment by calculating the present value of the expected cash flows or its fair value less costs of disposal. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the value of the investment in Usiminas is comprised as follows:
|  | USIMINAS
