THIRD-QUARTER 2013 RESULTS
· CLH reports an operating EBITDA year-over-year growth of 24% during the third quarter with an operating EBITDA margin expansion of 1.7 percentage points, reaching a level of 35.5%
BOGOTÁ, COLOMBIA, OCTOBER 23, 2013 CEMEX Latam Holdings, S.A. (CLH) (BVC: CLH), announced today that consolidated net sales reached US$474 million during the third quarter of 2013, an increase of 18% versus the pro forma third quarter of 2012. Operating EBITDA increased by 24% during the quarter to US$168 million versus the pro forma third quarter in 2012.
Carlos Jacks, CEO of CLH, said, We are pleased by the strong results reached in the third quarter. Given the high levels of construction activity in the region, in many of our markets we sold record volumes of our products. We are also satisfied by the positive results in our housing solutions initiative in Colombia, as these projects are allowing us to capture incremental value.
CLHs Financial and Operational Highlights
· The increase in consolidated net sales during the quarter resulted mainly from higher volumes in most of our markets, along with the effect from our housing solutions projects in Colombia.
· Operating EBITDA growth in the quarter was driven by higher volumes, along with lower distribution expenses, lower maintenance costs and lower fuel costs. On a year-over-year basis, operating EBITDA margin during the quarter expanded in most of our markets.
· Our Construrama initiative in Colombia has continued its expansion. We recently reached a total of 200 stores that have agreed to join the program, with more than 110 already operating as Construramas.
· Free cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures during the quarter reached US$91 million.
Carlos Jacks, added, Our high free cashflow generation in the quarter was driven by the strong double-digit growth of operating EBITDA. We expect to continue using our free cashflow generation to finance our business strategy and our expansion projects.

###
This press release contains forward-looking statements and information that are necessarily subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of CLH to be materially different from those expressed or implied in this release, including, among others, changes in general economic, political, governmental and business conditions globally and in the countries in which CLH does business, changes in interest rates, changes in inflation rates, changes in exchange rates, the level of construction generally, changes in cement demand and prices, changes in raw material and energy prices, changes in business strategy, changes derived from events affecting CEMEX, S.A.B de C.V. and subsidiaries (CEMEX) and various other factors. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein. CLH assumes no obligation to update or correct the information contained in this press release.
For convenience of the reader the 2012 pro forma consolidated financial information was adjusted to reflect the additional results of the operating subsidiaries for three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and reflect the 5% corporate charges and royalties agreement entered into by CLH with CEMEX. Operating EBITDA is defined as operating earnings before other expenses, net plus depreciation and operating amortization. Free Cash Flow is defined as operating EBITDA minus net interest expense, maintenance and expansion capital expenditures, change in working capital, taxes paid, and other cash items (net other expenses less proceeds from the disposal of obsolete and/or substantially depleted operating fixed assets that are no longer in operation). All of the above items are presented on a consolidated basis in 2012 based on the financial statements of CLHs subsidiaries prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Operating EBITDA and Free Cash Flow (as defined above) are presented herein because CLH believes that they are widely accepted as financial indicators of CLHs ability to internally fund capital expenditures and service or incur debt. Operating EBITDA and Free Cash Flow should not be considered as indicators of CLHs financial performance, as alternatives to cash flow, as measures of liquidity or as being comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Consolidated net sales in the third quarter of 2013 increased to US$474 million, representing an 18% growth when compared to the pro forma third quarter of 2012. The increase in net sales is mainly explained by higher construction activity driving strong volume growth during the third quarter, along with the contribution from our housing solutions projects in Colombia. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales declined by 1.0pp during the third quarter of 2013 compared with the same period last year, from 50.8% to 49.8%. This resulted mainly from a decline in maintenance and fuel costs. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased by 1.5pp during the third quarter from 21.1% to 19.6%, compared with the same period a year ago, on a pro forma basis. This decline is mainly explained by lower distribution expenses and the effect on sales of our housing solutions initiative. Operating EBITDA during the third quarter reached US$168 million, increasing by 24% compared to the pro forma third quarter of 2012. This improvement was driven by a positive performance in most of our markets. Operating EBITDA margin during the third quarter increased 1.7pp, compared to the third quarter on a pro forma basis, reaching 35.5%, mainly as a result of higher volumes, as well as lower distribution expenses, lower maintenance costs and lower fuel costs. Controlling interest net income during the third quarter of 2013 reached US$96 million. Total debt at the end of the third quarter of 2013 was US$1,424 million.

OTHER ACTIVITIES AND INFORMATION Antitrust Investigation in Colombia On September 5, 2013, CEMEX Latam Holdings, S.A. (CLH) (BVC: CLH) informed the Colombian Financial Superintendency (Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia) that on that same date, CEMEX Colombia S.A. (CEMEX Colombia), a subsidiary of CLH, was notified of Resolution No. 49141 dated August 21, 2013, issued by the Colombian Superintendency of Industry and Commerce, SIC, (Superintendencia de Industriay Comercio) pursuant to which the SIC opened an investigation and issued a statement of objections (pliego de cargos) against five (5) cement companies and fourteen (14) directors of those companies, including CEMEX Colombia, for alleged anti-competitive practices. The parties being investigated have a twenty (20) day term commencing from the notice date to answer the statement of objections (pliego de cargos) and submit evidence. The investigated parties are accused of allegedly breaching: (i) Article 1 of Law 155 of 1959, which prohibits any kind of practice, procedure or system designed to limit free competition and determining or maintaining unfair prices; (ii) paragraph 1 of Article 47 of Decree 2153 of 1992, which prohibits any agreements designed to directly or indirectly fix prices; and (iii) paragraph 3 of Article 47 of Decree 2153 of 1992, which prohibits any market sharing agreements between producers or between distributors. Additionally, the fourteen (14) executives, including a former legal representative and the current President of CEMEX Colombia, are being investigated for allegedly breaching paragraph 16 of Article 4 of Decree 2153 of 1992, as amended by Article 26 of Law 1340 of 2009, which provides that the SIC may investigate and sanction any individual who collaborates, facilitates, authorizes, executes or tolerates behavior that violates free competition rules. If the alleged infringements investigated by the SIC are substantiated, aside from any measures that could be ordered to stop the alleged anti-competitive practices, penalties may be imposed against CEMEX Colombia. Pursuant to Law 1340 of 2009, the SIC may impose the following penalties: (i) up to one hundred thousand (100,000) legal monthly minimum wages, approximately 58,950,000,000 Colombian Pesos (approximately U.S.$30.8 million as of September 30, 2013, based on an exchange rate of 1,914.65 Colombian Pesos to U.S.$1.00) for each violation and to each company being declared in breach of the competition rules, and (ii) up to two thousand (2,000) legal monthly minimum wages, approximately 1,179,000,000 Colombian Pesos (approximately U.S.$616,000 as of September 30, 2013, based on an exchange rate of 1,914.65 Colombian Pesos to U.S.$1.00) against those individuals found responsible of collaborating, facilitating, authorizing, executing or tolerating behavior that violates free competition rules.
