CEMEX REPORTS FIRST-QUARTER 2016 RESULTS
| • | Net income was US$35 million during the quarter and was positive in a first quarter for the first time in 7 years. |
| • | Operating EBITDA increased 12% on a like-to-like basis during the quarter and was the highest first-quarter EBITDA, as well as the highest EBITDA margin since 2009. |
| • | First positive free cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures in a first quarter since 2009. |
MONTERREY, MEXICO, APRIL 21, 2016– CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX), announced today that consolidated net sales reached US$3.2 billion during the first quarter of 2016, an increase of 3% on a like-to-like basis for the ongoing operations and adjusting for currency fluctuations, versus the comparable period in 2015. Operating EBITDA increased 12% on a like-to-like basis during the quarter to US$583 million versus the same period in 2015.
CEMEX’s Consolidated First-Quarter 2016 Financial and Operational Highlights
| • | The increase in consolidated net sales was due to higher prices of our products, in local currency terms, in most of our operations, as well as higher volumes in the U.S., and our Europe and AME&A regions. |
| • | On a like-to-like basis, operating earnings before other expenses, net, in the first quarter increased 19% to US$358 million versus the comparable period in 2015. |
| • | Controlling interest net income improved to US$35 million during the first quarter of 2016 from a loss of US$149 million in the same period last year. |
| • | Operating EBITDA increased during the quarter 12% on a like-to-like basis to US$583 million. |
| • | Operating EBITDA margin grew by 1.2 percentage points on a year-over-year basis reaching 18.2%. |
| • | Free cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures for the quarter was US$8 million, compared with negative US$281 million in the same quarter of 2015. |
| • | Free cash flow for the quarter was negative US$35 million, an improvement of US$322 million, compared with the same quarter of 2015. |
Fernando A. Gonzalez, CEMEX Chief Executive Officer, said: “We continue to see favorable results from the implementation of our value-before-volume strategy, with increases in sequential pricing in our three core products. Higher consolidated prices led to a like-to-like increase in net sales of 3%. Prices increased more than our costs and we had a favorable operating leverage in many of our markets leading to a 12% increase in EBITDA on a like-to-like basis, as well as an EBITDA margin expansion of 1.2 percentage points.
We are particularly pleased with both our free cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures and our net income being positive in a first quarter for the first time in 7 years.”

Many factors could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of CEMEX 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 CEMEX 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 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.

Operating EBITDA is defined as operating income 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). Net debt is defined as total debt
minus the fair value of cross-currency swaps associated with debt minus cash and cash equivalents. The Consolidated Funded Debt to Operating EBITDA ratio is calculated by dividing Consolidated Funded Debt at the end of the quarter by Operating EBITDA for the last twelve months. All of the above items are presented under the guidance of 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 CEMEX believes that they are widely accepted as financial indicators of CEMEX’s ability to internally fund capital expenditures and service or incur debt. Operating EBITDA and Free Cash Flow should not be considered as indicators of CEMEX’s 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 first quarter of 2016 reached US$3.2 billion, representing a decline of 3%, or an increase of 3% on a
like-to-like basis for the ongoing operations and for foreign exchange fluctuations compared with the first quarter of 2015. The increase in consolidated net sales was due to higher prices of our products, in local currency terms, in most of
our operations, as well as higher volumes in the U.S., and our Europe and AME&A regions.
Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased by 1.5pp during
the first quarter of 2016 compared with the same period last year, from 69.3% to 67.8%. The decrease was mainly driven by our cost reduction initiatives, as well as lower energy costs.
Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased by 0.4pp during the first quarter of 2016 compared with the same period last year, from 20.6% to 21.0%.
Operating EBITDA increased by 3% to US$583 million or increased 12% on a like to like basis for the ongoing operations and for foreign exchange fluctuations during the first
quarter of 2016 compared with the same period last year. The increase on a like to like basis was mainly due to higher contributions in most of our operations.
Operating EBITDA margin increased by 1.2pp from 17.0% in the first quarter of 2015 to 18.2% this quarter.
Gain (loss) on financial instruments for the quarter was a gain of US$22 million, resulting mainly from derivatives related to CEMEX shares.
Controlling interest net income (loss) was an income of US$35 million in the first quarter of 2016 versus a loss of US$149 million in the same quarter of 2015. The income primarily
reflects higher operating earnings before other expenses, net, lower financial expenses, better results from financial instruments, higher equity in gain of associates and lower income tax, partially offset by higher other expenses, net, and a
negative effect in foreign exchange results.
Total debt plus perpetual notes increased by US$672 million during the quarter.

In Mexico, our domestic gray cement and ready-mix volumes decreased 13% and 18%, respectively, during the first quarter of 2016 versus the same period last year. Daily volumes of
cement plus mortar were practically flat sequentially and declined 10% on a year-over-year basis during the quarter.
During the first quarter there was a
moderation in cement consumption, especially in infrastructure, sector in which we have high participation. The decline in our volumes was mainly due to a high base of comparison in the first quarter of last year, as well as our Value-before-Volume
strategy. On a sequential and year-over-year basis, our cement prices increased 8% and 18%, respectively, during the quarter. In the formal residential sector, commercial banks supported activity with increases in new home credits and credits for
homebuilders. The industrial-and-commercial sector continued to be supported by strong commercial indicators, including retail sales.

In the United States, our domestic gray cement, ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased 8%, 5% and 6%, respectively, during the first quarter of 2016 versus the same period last
year.
Volume growth during the quarter was due to a pickup in residential and infrastructure activity, as well as good weather in most of our portfolio relative to
the prior year. In the residential sector, housing starts increased 15% year-to-date March, driven by low inventories, job creation and household formation. Similar to the fourth quarter of last year, single-family construction growth outpaced
multi-family. The infrastructure sector reflected a pick-up in highway-and-bridges construction spending in the first two months of the year. Construction spending in the industrial-and-commercial sector including energy has slowed over the last
year reflecting a headwind from energy and manufacturing investment. Spending in this sector is up 3% year-to-date February, reflecting growth in the more cement intensive lodging, office and commercial segments.

In the United Kingdom, our domestic gray cement and aggregates volumes increased 6% and 5%, respectively, while ready-mix declined 4% during the first quarter of 2016. Cement
volume growth during the quarter reflects higher sales of cements with high fly-ash content, as well as non-recurring industry sales. Ready-mix volume decline reflects challenging competitive dynamics, especially in the London area. The residential
sector continued to be the main driver of demand supported by economic growth, accelerating home prices and government-sponsored programs. In the infrastructure sector, large scale projects such as Crossrail in London and Mersey Gateway in northwest
England, continued to drive demand.

Operating results
CEMEX
Domestic gray cement volumes for our operations in Spain increased 7%, while our ready-mix volumes declined 2% during the quarter on a year-over-year basis. The residential sector
benefited from favorable credit conditions with low interest rates, improved salaries and job creation, as well as pent-up housing demand. The industrial-and-commercial sector had a favorable performance during the quarter supported by permits
growth at the end of last year.
In Germany, our domestic gray cement volumes declined 1% during the first quarter of 2016 on a year-over-year basis. Adjusting for
one fewer working day this quarter, cement volumes remained stable. The residential sector continued as the main driver of cement consumption during the quarter despite capacity constraints in the local construction industry and public
authorities’ restrictions. This sector continued to benefit from low unemployment and mortgage rates, rising purchasing power and growing immigration.
In
Poland, our domestic cement volumes declined 6% mainly due to a high comparison base in the same quarter of 2015, which benefited from better weather conditions, as well as the impact of the Easter holidays. The residential and infrastructure
sectors were the main drivers of demand during the quarter supported by multi-family developments in metropolitan areas and road projects, respectively.
In France,
domestic ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased 5% and 7%, respectively, during the first quarter of 2016 versus the comparable period last year. During the quarter, there was higher activity in traded aggregates volumes. The residential sector
continued as the main driver of demand. Housing sales growth reflects government’s initiatives including a buy-to-let program and a stimulus package.

In the Philippines, our domestic gray
cement volumes increased 10% during the first quarter of 2016 versus the comparable period of last year. Our cement volumes during the quarter benefited from improved demand in all sectors. The residential sector was supported by robust remittances,
stable inflation and low mortgage rates. The industrial-and-commercial sector experienced improved demand from the continued expansions in business process outsourcing services and tourism-related projects. Regarding infrastructure, volume growth
was driven by an increase in government outlays during the quarter.
In Egypt, our domestic gray cement volumes increased 17% during the quarter on a year-over-year
basis. Volumes benefited from continued residential and infrastructure activity, as well as improved weather conditions. Government projects related to the Suez Canal tunnels and low-income housing continued to drive cement demand during the
quarter.

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 March 31, 2016, 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$64 million, including a liability of US$26
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 March 31, 2016, the notional amount of this derivative was US$157 million, with a positive fair market value of approximately US$33 million.
(2) Excludes exchange rate derivatives, as of March 31, 2016, the notional amount of the derivatives were US$224 million, with a negative fair market value of approximately US$8
million.
(3) Excludes forward contracts negotiated to hedge the price of diesel fuel as of March 31, 2016, the notional amount of the forward contracts were US$29
million, with a positive fair market value of approximately US$1 million.
(4) Net of cash collateral deposited under open positions. Cash collateral was US$8
million as of March 31, 2015.
(5) As required by IFRS, the estimated aggregate fair market value as of March 31, 2016 and 2015 includes a liability of US$26
million and US$27 million, respectively, relating to an embedded derivative in CEMEX’s mandatorily convertible securities.

CEMEX subsidiary presented
application to Philippine authorities for potential sale of a minority stake in its assets in the Philippines
On March 10, 2016, CEMEX announced that CEMEX
Holdings Philippines, Inc. (“CHP”), an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of CEMEX España, S.A., filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the Philippines (the “Philippine SEC”) relating
to an initial public offering of CHP’s common shares (the “Offering”). Subject to obtaining the corresponding approvals from the Philippine SEC and the Philippine Stock Exchange (the “PSE”) for the listing of CHP’s
shares on the PSE, CHP has the intention to, in a public offering to investors in the Philippines and, in a concurrent private placement to eligible investors outside of the Philippines, offer a minority interest in CHP’s capital stock.
CHP’s assets consist primarily of CEMEX’s cement manufacturing assets in the Philippines. The filing of the registration statement with the Philippine SEC is a first step in one of the alternatives CEMEX is exploring in the context of
CEMEX’s previously announced asset divestiture plan. CEMEX continues to explore other alternatives, and the ultimate implementation of any such alternative remains at the discretion of CEMEX. This report does not constitute or form part of an
offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to purchase or subscribe for securities in the United States or in any other jurisdiction. The securities referred to herein have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as

Mexican Tax Reform 2016
In October 2015, a new tax reform approved by Congress (the “new
tax reform”) which became effective in January 1, 2016 granted entities the option to settle a portion of the liability for the exit of the tax consolidation regime using available tax loss carryforwards of the previously consolidated entities,
considering a discount factor, and a tax credit to offset certain items of the aforementioned liability. Consequently, during 2015, as a result of payments made, the liability was further reduced to approximately US$938 million, which after the
application of tax credits and assets for tax loss carryforwards (as provided by the new tax reform) which had a book value for CEMEX before discount of approximately US$646 million, as of December 31, 2015, the Parent Company’s liability was
reduced to approximately US$226 million. All USD amounts are based on an exchange rate of Ps17.23 to US$1.00 as of December 31, 2015.
Polish Antitrust
Investigation
Regarding the antitrust proceedings formally initiated in January 2007 against all cement producers in Poland, including CEMEX and the corresponding
fine issued in December 2013 that was appealed by CEMEX in May 2014, after several hearings, the Appeals Court reopened the hearing phase which had been closed on February 26, 2016. As a result, the issuance of a final judgment has been delayed. The
penalty to be paid, if any, must be paid within 14 calendar days after the formal announcement by the appeals court. An accounting provision for this matter exists.
Information Request in Costa Rica
As a result of a claim made by a third
party, in March 2016, the Competition Directorate of Costa Rica notified CEMEX (Costa Rica), S.A. (“CEMEX Costa Rica”) of a formal information request that has the objective of calculating the cement market share in Costa Rica and the
geographical areas in which CEMEX Costa Rica has a presence. CEMEX Costa Rica has delivered the requested information. As of March 31, 2016, we are not able to assess the likelihood of this request for information leading to a formal investigation
or any other actions by the Competition Directorate of Costa Rica, but if any formal investigations are commenced or if any actions are taken by the Competition Directorate of Costa Rica or any other governmental authority in Costa Rica we would not
expect that any adverse result from any investigation or actions taken by the corresponding authority of the government of Costa Rica would have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

Methodology for translation, consolidation, and presentation of results
Under
IFRS, beginning January 1, 2008, CEMEX translates the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries using exchange rates at the reporting date for the balance sheet and the exchange rates at the end of each month for the income statement. CEMEX
reports its consolidated results in Mexican pesos.
For the reader’s convenience, beginning June 30, 2008, US dollar amounts for the consolidated entity are
calculated by converting the nominal Mexican peso amounts at the end of each quarter using the average MXN/US$ exchange rate for each quarter. The exchange rates used to convert results for the first quarter of 2016 and the first quarter of 2015 are
17.85 and 15.07 Mexican pesos per US dollar, respectively.
Per-country/region figures are presented in US dollars for the reader’s convenience. Figures
presented in US dollars for Mexico, as of March 31, 2016, and March 31, 2015, can be converted into their original local currency amount by multiplying the US-dollar figure by the corresponding average exchange rates for 2016 and 2015, provided
below.
