    Net income for the quarter increased 81% on a year-over-year, reaching US$205 million, and was the highest in a second quarter since 2008.

 

    Operating EBITDA increased by 16% on a like-to-like basis during the quarter, leading to an EBITDA margin of 20.9%. Both EBITDA and EBITDA margin were the highest in a second quarter since 2008.

 

    Free cash flow for the quarter was US$422 million, an improvement of US$359 million, compared with the same quarter of 2015 and the highest in a second quarter since 2006.

 

    Reduction of close to US$1.3 billion during the first half of 2016 in our pro-forma total debt plus perpetual notes, which reflects the utilization of the created cash reserve and the proceeds from our Philippines transaction for debt reduction, among other items.

MONTERREY, MEXICO, JULY 27, 2016– CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX) announced today that its consolidated net sales reached US$3.7 billion during the second quarter of 2016, an increase of 6% on a like-to-like basis for the ongoing operations and adjusting for currency fluctuations, versus the comparable period in 2015. Operating EBITDA increased 6% during the quarter to US$771 million versus the same period in 2015. On a like-to-like basis, operating EBITDA increased 16% in the same period.

CEMEX’s Consolidated Second-Quarter 2016 Financial and Operational Highlights

 

    The increase in consolidated net sales on a like-to-like basis was due to higher prices of our products, in local currency terms, in most of our operations, as well as higher volumes in Mexico, U.S., and our European region.

 

    Operating earnings before other expenses, net, in the second quarter increased 11% and 24% on a like-to-like basis to US$539 million.

 

    Controlling interest net income improved 81% during the second quarter of 2016 to US$205 million from US$114 million in the same period last year.

 

    Operating EBITDA increased during the quarter 6% and, on a like-to-like basis, 16% to US$771 million.

 

    Operating EBITDA margin grew by 1.3 percentage points on a year-over-year basis reaching 20.9%.

 

    Free cash flow for the quarter was US$422 million, an improvement of US$359 million, compared with the same quarter of 2015.


Fernando A. Gonzalez, Chief Executive Officer, said: “Our solid second quarter and first half 2016 results demonstrate the resilience of our portfolio, which is largely comprised of high-growth markets that are experiencing attractive supply-demand conditions.

We saw higher consolidated cement and aggregates volumes during the quarter as well as continued favorable results from our value-before-volume strategy, which led to a growth in sales of 6% on a like-to-like basis. Operating EBITDA increased by 16% also on a like-to-like basis with a margin expansion of 1.3 percentage points. Free cash flow after maintenance capex reached US$478 million during the quarter, an increase of US$376 million from last year’s level.

Our pro-forma debt, reflecting our cash reserve and the proceeds from our Philippines transaction, among other items, is close to US$1.3 billion lower than that at the end of 2015. This is an additional step in our path to reach an investment-grade capital structure as soon as possible.”

During the second quarter of 2016, controlling interest net income was US$205 million, an improvement over US$114 million in the same period last year.

(1)For 2016 and 2015, the effect of the potential dilutive shares generate anti-dilution; therefore, there is no change between the reported basic and diluted loss per share. Consolidated net sales in the second quarter of 2016 decreased to US$3.7 billion, representing a decline of 1%, or an increase of 6% on a like-to-like basis for the ongoing operations and for foreign exchange fluctuations compared with the second 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 Mexico, U.S., and our European region. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased by 1.5pp during the second quarter of 2016 compared with the same period last year, from 65.8% to 64.3%. The decrease was mainly driven by our cost reduction initiatives, as well as lower energy costs. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales remained flat during the second quarter of 2016 compared with the same period last year, in 21.1%. Operating EBITDA increased by 6% to US$771 million or increased 16% on a like to like basis for the ongoing operations and for foreign exchange fluctuations during the second quarter of 2016 compared with the same period last year. On a like to like basis, the increase was mainly due to higher contributions in all of our operations. Operating EBITDA margin increased by 1.3pp from 19.6% in the second quarter of 2015 to 20.9% this quarter. Gain (loss) on financial instruments for the quarter was a loss of US$24 million, resulting mainly from derivatives related to CEMEX shares. Controlling interest net income (loss) was an income of US$205 million in the second quarter of 2016 versus an income of US$114 million in the same quarter of 2015. The income primarily reflects higher operating earnings before other expenses, net, a positive effect in foreign exchange results, lower income tax and a positive effect in discontinued operations, partially offset by higher other expenses, net, higher financial expenses, higher loss from financial instruments and higher non controlling interest net income. Total debt plus perpetual notes decreased by US$1,151 million during the quarter.

During the first six months of the year, domestic gray cement volumes were flat and ready-mix volumes decreased 12% versus the comparable period of 2015. Cement volume growth during the quarter reflects increased demand, better market dynamics, as well as an improvement in our market position. Daily cement volumes increased 18% on a sequential basis. On a quarter-on-quarter and year-over-year basis, our cement prices in this period increased 2% and 18%, respectively. The decline in our ready-mix volumes was mainly due to a high base of comparison in the same quarter of last year, which benefited from an important industrial project, as well as delays in new infrastructure projects.

During the first six months of the year and on a year-over-year basis, domestic gray cement, ready-mix and aggregates increased 7%, 5% and 5%, respectively. Volume increased during the quarter driven by residential and infrastructure activity and despite an unseasonably warm winter that brought some demand forward to the first quarter. Prices for our three core products increased during the quarter both on a sequential and year-over-year basis. In the residential sector, housing starts during the quarter increased 1% with single-family starts increasing 7% supported by low inventories, job creation, low interest rates and household formation. On the infrastructure sector, highway-and-bridges construction spending increased 7% year-to-date May backed by increased state spending and a new federal highway bill. Construction spending in the industrial-and-commercial sector continued to slow, reflecting a headwind from energy, agriculture and manufacturing investment. We estimate national cement consumption for this sector grew in the low single digits during the quarter, reflecting growth in the lodging, office and commercial segments.

In the United Kingdom, domestic gray cement and aggregates volumes increased on a year-over-year basis 11% and 7%, respectively, while ready-mix remained flat during the second quarter of 2016. For the first six months of the year our domestic gray cement and aggregates volumes increased 9% and 6%, respectively, while ready-mix decreased 2%, versus the comparable period in 2015. Uncertainty from the EU referendum affected cement consumption. The increase in our cement volumes during the quarter reflects two additional working days, higher sales of blended cement with fly ash, as well as nonrecurring industry sales. The residential and infrastructure sectors were the main drivers of demand during the quarter.

2016 Second Quarter Results Page 5 Operating results In Spain, our domestic gray cement and ready-mix volumes increased 4% and 7%, respectively, during the quarter on a year-over-year basis. During the first six months of the year, our domestic gray cement and ready-mix volumes increased 5% and 3%, respectively, compared with the same period of 2015. The residential sector benefited from favorable credit conditions and income perspectives, job creation, and pent-up housing demand. In the industrial and commercial sector, offices and retail segments showed positive performance. In Germany, our domestic gray cement volumes decreased 4% and 3% during the second quarter and first six months of the year, respectively, compared to the same periods of last year. Although our main demand sectors performed positively during the quarter, volume decline reflects a high base of comparison as well as challenging market dynamics. The residential sector was the main driver of cement consumption 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, domestic gray cement volumes for our operations increased 8% and 2% during the second quarter and first six months of the year, respectively, versus the comparable periods in 2015. Cement volumes during the quarter benefited from additional working days and from an important infrastructure project in the north of the country. We have broadly maintained our market position with a 2-percent increase in cement prices as of June versus December levels. The residential and infrastructure sectors were the main drivers of demand during the quarter. In our operations in France, ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased 7% and 6%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2016 versus the comparable period of last year, reflecting additional working days and despite the impact of floods which affected construction activity. During the first six months of the year and on a year-over-year basis, ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased 6% and 7%, respectively. The residential sector continued as the main driver of demand. Housing sales growth reflects low interest rates and government’s initiatives including a buy-to-let program and a stimulus package.

In the Philippines, our domestic gray cement volumes were flat and increased 5% during the second quarter and first six months of 2016, respectively, compared with the same periods of 2015. Volume during the quarter reflects a temporary slowdown in construction activity surrounding the general elections in June. The industrial-and-commercial sector was supported by office space demand, while the residential sector by robust remittances, stable inflation and low mortgage rates. In Egypt, our domestic gray cement volumes increased 7% and 12% during the second quarter and first six months of 2016, respectively, versus the comparable periods of last year. Our volumes increased during the quarter despite lower activity in June due to Ramadan this year starting earlier in the month. Government projects related to the Suez Canal tunnels and lowincome housing continued to drive cement demand during the quarter.

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, 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$53 million, including a liability of US$21 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.

Holders of Notes that validly tendered their Notes on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes were accepted for purchase received US$1,102.50 per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase, which includes an early tender premium equal to US$30 per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase. Holders of Notes who validly tendered their Notes on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes were accepted for purchase received accrued and unpaid interest on their accepted Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date. The total cash payment to purchase the accepted Notes on the Early Settlement Date was approximately US$$398 million. Notes validly tendered cannot be withdrawn, except as may be required by applicable law. The Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 27, 2016 (the “Expiration Date”). If Notes are validly tendered such that the aggregate principal amount tendered exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, CEMEX will accept for purchase only the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount of such Notes, subject to the other conditions in the Offer to Purchase. Holders who tender Notes after the Early Tender Date but on or prior to the Expiration Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be entitled to receive only the Base Consideration of US$1,072.50 per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase. Holders who validly tender their Notes in the Tender Offer after the Early Tender Date but on or prior to the Expiration Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on their accepted Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the final settlement date.

CEMEX obtained ‘green’ financing from IFC On July 12, 2016, CEMEX announced that the International Finance Corporation (“IFC”) granted CEMEX a loan of approximately 106 million to support CEMEX’s sustainable investment programs in emerging markets. After a thorough assessment of CEMEX’s environmental, governance and social practices, the IFC granted CEMEX funding for projects designed to enhance environmental performance that were completed in 2014 & 2015 as well as ongoing during 2016 which are part of the capital expenditure plan previously communicated by CEMEX. Approximately 60% of the funds will be allocated for projects related to the reduction of CEMEX’s greenhouse gas emissions, while the remainder of the funds will be allocated to cover improvements to CEMEX’s overall air emission controls. The IFC is joining CEMEX’s facilities agreement dated September 29, 2014, as amended and restated (the “Credit Agreement”) maturing in 2020. This transaction increases the currently outstanding commitments under the Credit Agreement by approximately 106 million and diversifies CEMEX’s sources of funding. CEMEX announced pricing of the sale of a minority stake in the capital stock of its subsidiary in the Philippines On June 29, 2016, CEMEX announced that CEMEX Holdings Philippines, Inc. (“CHP”), an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of CEMEX España, S.A. (“CEMEX España), priced on June 30, 2016 in Asia its initial public offering of 2,032,980,830 common shares (the “Offering”) at a price of ?10.75 Philippine Pesos per common share (the “Offer Price”). The common shares offered by CHP include 2,032,980,830 new common shares offered in a public offering to investors in the Philippines and in a concurrent private placement to eligible investors outside of the Philippines. CHP also granted the underwriters an option to procure subscribers for or themselves subscribe for up to an additional 304,947,124 common shares at the Offer Price (the “Additional Shares”), which option is exercisable at any time up to and including the day prior to the date the common shares are initially listed and commence trading (the “Listing Date”) on the Philippine Stock Exchange (the “PSE”). CEMEX Asian South East Corporation (“CASE”), which is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of CEMEX España and CHP’s principal shareholder, has undertaken to purchase up to 304,947,124 common shares from the underwriters at the Offer Price at any time from and after the Listing Date until the date that is 30 days following the Listing Date (the “Undertaking to Purchase”). After giving effect to the Offering, CASE would directly own approximately 55.0% of CHP’s outstanding common shares (assuming the Undertaking to Purchase is not utilized). CHP’s common shares were approved for listing on the PSE under the ticker “CHP”. The closing of the Offering was on July 18, 2016. The net proceeds to CHP from the Offering were approximately $506.8 million after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions, and other estimated offering expenses payable by CHP (assuming the Additional Shares are purchased by the underwriters or subscribers procured by them and based on the exchange rate of 46.932 Philippine Pesos per U.S. dollar published on June 29, 2016 by the Philippine Dealing & Exchange Corp). CHP expects to use the net proceeds to repay existing indebtedness owed to BDO Unibank, Inc. and to one or more indirect subsidiaries of CEMEX. In turn, CEMEX expects to apply its net proceeds to general corporate purposes, including the repayment of existing indebtedness. This transaction is important in the context of CEMEX’s previously announced asset divestiture plan. CEMEX announced pricing of 400 million in senior secured notes On June 8, 2016, CEMEX announced the pricing of 400 million of 4.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 denominated in Euros (the “Notes”) of its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, CEMEX Finance LLC. The Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 4.625% and mature on June 15, 2024. The Notes were issued at a price of 100% of face value and will be callable commencing on June 15, 2020. The closing of the offering was on June 14, 2016. CEMEX intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes for general corporate purposes, including to repay indebtedness, all in accordance with CEMEX’s facilities agreement, dated as of September 29, 2014, as amended and restated entered into with several financial institutions. CEMEX may use such proceeds to reduce the revolving tranche of the Credit Agreement.

The Tender Offer was made pursuant to the Offer to Purchase dated April 25, 2016 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related letter of transmittal. Because Notes in excess of the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount were validly tendered in the Tender Offer on or prior to the Early Tender Date, CEMEX accepted for purchase all US$178,509,000 of the tendered 2018 Notes, all US$218,932,000 of the tendered 2019 Notes and none of the tendered 2022 Notes. The early settlement date on which CEMEX made payment for such 2018 Notes and 2019 Notes accepted in the Tender Offer was May 12, 2016 (the “Early Settlement Date”). Holders of Notes that validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes were accepted for purchase received US$1,033.75 per US$1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes and US$1,062.50 per US$1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes accepted for purchase, which included, in each case, an early tender premium equal to US$30 per US$1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase. Holders who validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes were accepted for purchase also received accrued and unpaid interest on their accepted Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date.

The new conversion rate for the 2018 Convertible Notes is 112.1339 ADSs per US$1,000 principal amount of 2018 Convertible Notes, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately US$8.9179 per ADS. The new conversion rate for the 2020 Convertible Notes is 87.3646 ADSs per US$1,000 principal amount of 2020 Convertible Notes, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately US$11.4463 per ADS.
