CEMEX REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER 2015 RESULTS
| • | Controlling interest net income during the quarter increased 50% on a year-over-year basis and was the highest since the third quarter of 2009. |
MONTERREY, MEXICO, JULY 22, 2015– CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX), announced today that consolidated net sales reached US$3.8 billion during the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 5% on a like-to-like basis for the ongoing operations and adjusting for currency fluctuations, versus the comparable period in 2014. Operating EBITDA increased by 1% during the quarter to US$744 million versus the same period in 2014. On a like-to-like basis, operating EBITDA increased by 13% in the same period.
CEMEX’s Consolidated Second-Quarter 2015 Financial and Operational Highlights
| • | The increase in consolidated net sales on a like-to-like basis was due to higher prices in our products, in local currency terms, in most of our operations, as well as improved volumes in most of our products in Mexico, the U.S., and our Northern Europe and Asia regions. |
| • | Operating earnings before other expenses, net, in the second quarter increased by 9%, to US$496 million. |
| • | Operating EBITDA increased by 1% to US$744 million or 13% on a like to like basis for the ongoing operations and for foreign exchange fluctuations during the second quarter of 2015 compared with the same period last year. The increase was mainly due to higher contributions from the U.S., Mexico and Asia region. |
| • | Operating EBITDA margin grew by 1.7 percentage points on a year-over-year basis reaching 19.4%. |
| • | Free cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures for the quarter was US$102 million, compared with US$63 million in the same quarter of 2014. |

In addition, our operating EBITDA grew by 13% on a like-to-like basis. This is the third quarter with double-digit, like-to-like growth in EBITDA.
On the financing side, we are pleased to announce that as of today we have commitments from 19 financial institutions to fully repay approximately US$1.94 billion outstanding under our Facilities Agreement maturing in February 2017. The new debt is expected to have a final amortization in 2020 and benefit from a lower interest rate, which is expected to initially represent savings in our financial expense of close to US$20 million annually.”

In Mexico, domestic gray cement volumes increased by 4% during the quarter versus the same period last year, while ready-mix volumes increased by 2% during the same period. During the first six months of the year, domestic gray cement volumes increased by 8% and ready-mix volumes increased by 5% versus the comparable period a year ago.
Demand for our products benefited from increased activity in all sectors, especially in the industrial-and-commercial and formal residential sectors. The industrial-and-commercial sector was supported by stronger private consumption and consumer confidence. The formal residential sector growth was supported by the increase in housing credits provided by both, public institutes and the banking sector and the acceleration in granting of subsidies. The main drivers for the self-construction sector, including remittances, employment, and consumer confidence also continued to improve.

In the United States, domestic gray cement volume declined by 1%, while ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased by 10% and 3%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2015 versus the same period last year. On a pro-forma basis, adjusting for the acquisition of ready-mix plants in California, ready-mix volumes grew by 7% on a year-over-year basis. During the first six months of the year and on a year-over-year basis, domestic gray cement remained flat, while aggregates and pro-forma ready-mix volumes increased by 3% and 10%, respectively.
For the second consecutive quarter, poor weather and reduced demand for oil well cement affected cement volumes. Construction growth in the second quarter was supported by the residential and the industrial-and-commercial sectors. The residential sector remains positive driven by fundamentals such as substantial pent-up demand, low levels of inventory and good job creation. For the first half versus prior year, multi-family and single-family starts are up 14% and 9%, respectively. The industrial-and-commercial sector performance was positive, supported by manufacturing, office, lodging and commercial construction. Cement demand from the infrastructure sector was relatively flat during the quarter, hampered by uncertainty over the Federal Highway Program, which expires at the end of July.

Our domestic gray cement volumes in the Northern Europe region increased by 6% during the second quarter of 2015 and increased by 4% during the first six months of the year versus the comparable periods in 2014. On a pro-forma basis adjusting for the transactions with Holcim closed at the beginning of the first quarter, domestic gray cement volumes increased by 17% during the second quarter of 2015 and increased by 17% during the first six months of the year versus the comparable periods in 2014.
In Germany, our domestic gray cement volumes decreased by 42% and 47% during the second quarter and first six months of the year respectively, on a year-over-year basis. Pro-forma cement volumes grew by 13% and 10% during the second quarter and the first six months of the year, respectively, compared to the same periods of last year. The residential sector remained as the main driver of cement consumption during the quarter despite constraints on the supply side, such as land availability and regulatory caps on rental increases. The sector benefited from low unemployment, low mortgage rates, rising purchase power and growing immigration. The Infrastructure sector continued showing signs of recovery.
In Poland, domestic gray cement volumes for our operations increased by 43% during the quarter and by 38% during the first six months of the year versus the comparable periods in 2014. While our market position remained stable during the last four quarters, volume growth reflects our efforts to strengthen our market presence during the second half of last year, from historically low level in the second quarter of 2014. Our ready-mix operations also benefited from the initiation of important infrastructure projects, including highways, as well as residential developments in metropolitan areas – even when we observe some delays in the projects.
In our operations in France, ready-mix volumes and aggregates decreased by 7% and 2%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2015 versus the comparable period last year. During the first six months of the year, ready-mix and aggregates volumes decreased by 11% and 5%, respectively, on a year-over-year basis. During the first half of the year, there was higher activity
in traded aggregates volumes. Volumes were affected by the continued macroeconomic weakness. Housing sales have improved as a result of government’s initiatives which include a buy-to-let program and a stimulus package.
In the United Kingdom, domestic gray cement and aggregates volumes increased, on a year-over-year basis by 8% and 2%, respectively, while ready-mix declined 1% during the second quarter of 2015. For the first six months of the year our domestic gray cement and aggregates volumes increased by 13% and 4% respectively, while ready-mix decreased by 2%, versus the comparable period in the previous year. The decline in ready-mix volumes reflects our focus on profitability. The residential sector was the main driver of demand during the quarter. Improved business environment contributed to growth in the industrial-and-commercial sector. During the quarter there was also stronger cement demand from infrastructure projects, especially in the Southeast of England.

Our domestic gray cement volumes in the Mediterranean region declined by 11% and by 8% during the second quarter and the first six months of 2015, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2014. On a pro-forma basis adjusting for the transactions with Holcim closed at the beginning of the first quarter, domestic gray cement volumes declined by 17% and by 14% during the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, versus the same periods in 2014.
In Egypt, our domestic gray cement volumes decreased by 23% during the second quarter of 2015 and declined by 18% during the first six months of the year, versus the comparable periods of last year. The decline in cement volumes is the result of lower activity due to Ramadan, which came twelve days earlier this year, and a high base last year. During the quarter, there was higher activity in the formal residential and infrastructure sectors.
In Spain, our domestic gray cement volumes increased by 37% and our ready-mix volumes declined by 15% on a year-over-year basis during the quarter. On a pro-forma basis, cement volumes declined by 7% during the quarter and by 8% during the first six months of the year, compared with the same periods in 2014. The decline in pro-forma cement volumes results from a comparison with a strong second quarter 2014, in which we had a stronger market position resulting from market dynamics. The infrastructure sector is benefiting from lower pressure for fiscal austerity measures and favorable financing conditions. Higher housing permits year to date driven by improved credit conditions, income and employment levels.

In the Philippines, our domestic gray cement volumes increased by 25% and by 23% during the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, versus the comparable periods of last year. Volume during the quarter benefited from increased residential and industrial-and-commercial activity, as well as a better ability to serve our markets through the introduction of the new cement-grinding mill at the end of the second quarter of last year. The industrial-and-commercial sector continued its growth momentum driven by strong office space demand. The residential sector remains strong as developers continue to expand housing projects supported by stable inflation, low mortgage rates, increased remittances, as well as by higher housing demand from foreigners.

During the quarter, we used the US$588 million cash reserve created in 1Q15 and the drawing down of a portion of the revolving tranche of our 2014 credit agreement to pay the outstanding 2020 senior secured notes and the floating rate senior secured notes which were due in September 2015.
Free cash flow during the quarter, plus proceeds from the unwinding of a portion of the 2016 capped calls, were mainly used for cash replenishment.
Our debt during the quarter reflects the conversion of a portion of our 2016 convertibles into ADSs as well as a negative foreign conversion effect of US$72 million.

Equity-related and derivative instruments information
Equity-related information
One CEMEX ADS represents ten CEMEX CPOs. The following amounts are expressed in CPO terms.
Beginning-of-quarter CPO-equivalent units outstanding 12,481,975,514
CPOs issued due to recapitalization of retained earnings 500,009,466
Less increase (decrease) in the number of CPOs held in subsidiaries 730,445
Stock-based compensation 16,613,588
CPOs issued as result of the exchange of a portion of our 2016 convertible securities 417,751,390
End-of-quarter CPO-equivalent units outstanding 13,415,619,513
Outstanding units equal total CEMEX CPO-equivalent units less CPOs held in subsidiaries, which as of June 30, 2015 were 18,991,576.
CEMEX has outstanding mandatorily convertible securities which, upon conversion, will increase the number of CPOs outstanding by approximately
218 million, subject to antidilution adjustments.
Employee long-term compensation plans
As of June 30, 2015, executives had outstanding options on a total of 1,410,250 CPOs, with a weighted-average strike price
of approximately US$1.91 per CPO (equivalent to US$19.11 per ADS). Starting in 2005, CEMEX began offering executives a
restricted stock-ownership program. As of June 30, 2015, our executives held 31,232,170 restricted CPOs, representing 0.2%
of our total CPOs outstanding as of such date.
Derivative instruments
The following table shows the notional amount for each type of derivative instrument and the aggregate fair market value for all of CEMEX’s derivative instruments as of the last day of each quarter presented.
Second Quarter First Quarter
2015 2014 2015
Notional amount of equity related derivatives (1) 1,378 1,792 1,695
Estimated aggregate fair market value (1) (2) (3) 137 529 181
In millions of US dollars.
The estimated aggregate fair market value represents the approximate settlement result as of the valuation date, based upon quoted market prices and estimated settlement costs, which fluctuate over time. Fair market values and notional amounts do not represent amounts of cash currently exchanged between the parties; cash amounts will be determined upon termination of the contracts considering the notional amounts and quoted market prices as well as other derivative items as of the settlement date. Fair market values should not be viewed in isolation, but rather in relation to the fair market values of the underlying hedge transactions and the overall reduction in CEMEX’s exposure to the risks being hedged.
Note: Under IFRS, companies are required to recognize all derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, at their estimated fair market value, with changes in such fair market values recorded in the income statement, except when transactions are entered into for cash-flow-hedging purposes, in which case changes in the fair market value of the related derivative instruments are recognized temporarily in equity and then reclassified into earnings as the inverse effects of the underlying hedged items flow through the income statement. As of June 30, 2015, in connection with the fair market value recognition of its derivatives portfolio, CEMEX recognized increases in its assets and liabilities resulting in a net asset of US$167 million, including a liability of US$29 million corresponding to an embedded derivative related to our mandatorily convertible securities, which according to our debt agreements, is presented net of the assets associated with the derivative instruments. The notional amounts of derivatives substantially match the amounts of underlying assets, liabilities, or equity transactions on which the derivatives are being entered into.
(1) Excludes an interest-rate swap related to our long-term energy contracts. As of June 30, 2015, the notional amount of this derivative was US$161 million, with a positive fair market value of approximately US$30 million.
(2) Net of cash collateral deposited under open positions. Cash collateral was US$9 million as of June 30, 2015 and US$6 million as of June 30, 2014. (3) As required by IFRS, the estimated aggregate fair market value as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 includes a liability of US$29 million and US$47 million, respectively, relating to an embedded derivative in CEMEX’s mandatorily convertible securities.

Mexican Tax Reform 2010 and 2014
In November 2009, Mexico approved amendments to the income tax
law, which became effective on January 1, 2010. Such amendments
modified the tax consolidation regime by requiring entities to determine
income taxes as if the tax consolidation provisions did not exist from
1999 onward, specifically turning into taxable items: a) the difference
between the sum of the equity of the controlled entities for tax purposes
and the equity of the consolidated entity for tax purposes; b) dividends
from the controlled entities for tax purposes to CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V.;
and c) other transactions that represented the transfer of resources
between the companies included in the tax consolidation. In December
2010, pursuant to miscellaneous rules, the tax authority in Mexico
granted the option to defer the calculation and payment of the income
tax over the difference in equity explained above, until the subsidiary is
disposed of or CEMEX eliminates the tax consolidation. Tax liabilities
associated with the tax loss carryforwards used in the tax consolidation
of the Mexican subsidiaries are not offset with deferred tax assets in the
balance sheet. The realization of these tax assets is subject to the
generation of future tax earnings in the controlled subsidiaries that
generated the tax loss carryforwards in the past.
In addition, in connection with new amendments to the income tax law
in Mexico approved in December 2013 and effective beginning January 1,
2014, the tax consolidation regime in effect until December 31, 2013,
was replaced prospectively by a new integration regime, to which CEMEX
will not apply, resulting in that beginning in 2014, each Mexican entity
will determine its income taxes based solely in its individual results, and a
period of up to 10 years has been established for the settlement of the
liability for income taxes related to the tax consolidation regime accrued
until December 31, 2013, amount which considering the new rules issued
for the disconnection of the tax consolidation regime amounted to
approximately US$1,901 million, based on an exchange rate of Ps13.05 to
US$1.00 as of December 31, 2013.
Changes in the Parent Company’s tax payable associated with the tax
consolidation in Mexico in 2014 were as follows (approximate
US$Millions):
2014
Balance at the beginning of the period $1,683*
Restatement for the period $65
Payments during the period($294)
Balance at the end of the period $1,454
*Based on an exchange rate of Ps14.74 to US$1.00 as of December
31,2014
As of December 31, 2014, the estimated payment schedule of taxes
payable resulting from these changes in the tax consolidation regime in
Mexico were as follows (approximate amounts in millions of US dollars):
2015 $350 **
2016 $293
2017 $291
2018 $215
2019 and thereafter $305
1,454
** This amount has been paid
Capped Calls
In relation to the capped calls purchased by CEMEX with proceeds of its
subordinated convertibles notes issued in March 2011 and due in March
2016, during April and May of 2015 we amended a portion of the capped
calls with the purpose of unwinding the position. As a result, during April
and May CEMEX received US$41 million in cash, equivalent to the
unwind of 32.4% of the total notional amount of such capped call.

Increase in regional cement volumes during the quarter reflects positive performance from our operations in the Philippines
During the quarter, regional prices for our three core products increased both sequentially and on a year- over-year basis, in local-currency terms
In the Philippines, the double-digit growth in cement volumes reflects positive performance mainly in the residential and industrial-and-commercial sectors, and also the introduction of the new grinding mill at the end of 2Q14

Other income statement items
Foreign-exchange gain of US$37 million resulting primarily from the fluctuation of the Mexican peso versus the U.S. dollar
Loss on financial instruments of US$9 million related mainly to CEMEX shares
Controlling interest net income of US$114 million, versus an income of US$76 million in 2Q14, mainly reflects higher operating earnings before other expenses, lower financial expenses, higher equity in gain of associates, and lower income tax, partially offset by other expenses, a loss on financial instruments, and a lower foreign-exchange gain
