MONTERREY, MEXICO, FEBRUARY 9, 2017– Cemex, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX), announced today that, on a like-to-like basis for the ongoing operations and adjusting for currency fluctuations, consolidated net sales increased by 4% during the fourth quarter of 2016 to US$3.2 billion, and increased 4% for the full year 2016 to US$13.4 billion versus the comparable periods in 2015. Operating EBITDA on a like-to-like basis increased by 10% during the fourth quarter of 2016 to US$654 million and increased by 15% for the full year to US$2.7 billion versus 2015.
CEMEX’s Consolidated Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2016 Financial and Operational Highlights
| • | The increase in quarterly 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, the United Kingdom and Germany. |
| • | Operating earnings before other expenses, net, in the fourth quarter increased by 12%, to US$453 million and increased 14%, to US$1.9 billion, for the full-year 2016. |
| • | Controlling interest net income during the quarter was almost 50% higher, reaching US$214 million from an income of US$144 million in the same period last year. Also, controlling interest net income for the full year improved to US$750 million from an income of US$75 million in 2015. |
| • | Operating EBITDA on a like-to-like basis increased by 10% and 15% during the quarter and the full year, respectively, to US$654 million and US$2.7 billion versus the comparable periods of 2015. |
| • | Operating EBITDA margin during the quarter grew by 1.0 percentage points on a year-over-year basis reaching 20.5%. For the full year, operating EBITDA margin increased to 20.5%, up 1.7 percentage points from 2015. |
| • | Free cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures for the quarter increased by 9% to US$617 million, compared to the same quarter of 2015. For the full year 2016, free cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures reached US$1.7 billion, an increase of 91% versus previous year. |
| • | Asset sales reached approximately US$2 billion, of which slightly above US$1 billion closed during 2016. These assets are being sold at double-digit multiples on average. |
Fernando A. Gonzalez, Chief Executive Officer, said: “2016 was a very good year for CEMEX. Despite continued volatility and uncertainty in the markets, we were able to deliver strong underlying operational and financial results by remaining focused on the variables that we control.
As a result of our favorable volume and price performance, sales increased by 4% in 2016, while operating EBITDA grew by 15%, on a like-to-like basis. Our free cash flow after maintenance capex was close to US$1.7 billion, almost double last year’s level. This was driven by higher EBITDA generation as well as our initiatives to reduce interest expense, maintenance CAPEX and working capital investment.
In line with our stated objective to reach an investment grade capital structure as soon as possible, we applied the proceeds from our free cash flow generation and asset sales mainly for debt reduction. Our total debt is close to US$2.3 billion lower than that at the end of 2015. This represents a 15% reduction from the debt level as of the end of 2015 and a 25% reduction since the end of 2013.
We are also pleased that S&P Global Ratings recognized our discipline and consistency in reducing our leverage with in an improvement in our credit rating, which should further enhance our financial flexibility and reduce our cost of capital.”
Consolidated Corporate Results
During the fourth quarter of 2016, controlling interest net income was US$214 million, an improvement over a gain of US$144 million in the same period last year.
Total debt plus perpetual notes decreased by US$892 million during the quarter. During 2016, total debt plus perpetual notes was reduced by approximately US$2.3 billion, which represents a 15% reduction from the debt level as of the end of 2015 and a 25% reduction compared to the end of 2013.

Domestic gray cement prices during the quarter and full year increased by 19% and 18%,respectively, in local currency and on a year-over-year basis. Cement volume growth during the quarter and full year 2016 was mainly driven by the industrial-and-commercial, formalhousing and self-construction sectors. The industrial-and-commercial sector was supported by continued commercialactivity, as well as warehouse and industrial-park construction. Despite a decline in government subsidies during 2016, theformal residential sector benefited from INFONAVIT’s stable investment and bank’s double-digit growth in mortgageinvestment. The main indicators for the self-construction sector, including remittances and job creation, remained solidduring the year.

During the quarter and on a like-to-like basis, adjusting for the assets sold to GCC, domestic gray cement and ready-mix volumes declined by 2% and 4%, respectively, while aggregates volumes increased by 1%, versus 2015. During the full year and on a like-to-like basis, domestic gray cement, ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased by 3%, 1%, and 2%, respectively, versus 2015. The slight decline in our quarterly like-to-like cement volumes was mainly due to a difficult comparable in the fourth quarter 2015 with unseasonably good weather. In the residential sector, housing starts during the quarter increased 9%, driven by single family activity. This sector was supported by low interest rates and inventories, strong job creation and household formation. Construction spending for the cement-intensive segments in the industrial-and-commercial sector was up 1% in 2016, reflecting growth in the lodging and office segments, offsetting a decline in energy, agriculture, and manufacturing. On the infrastructure sector, streets-and-highways spending picked up during the fourth quarter after a weak pre-election performance. National streets-and-highways spending for the fourth quarter was up 6% while cement consumption for this sector is estimated to be 1% higher.

In Colombia, during the fourth quarter, our domestic gray cement, ready-mix, and aggregates volumes decreased by 3%, 6%, and 7%, respectively, compared with the fourth quarter of 2015. For the full year, our domestic gray cement volumes remained flat, while our ready-mix and aggregates volumes decreased by 8% and 13%, respectively, versus the same period last year. Infrastructure projects delays and macroeconomic challenges impacted national cement consumption during 2016 and particularly the second half of the year. Our cement market position improved during the first months of 2016 and then maintained during the rest of the year. Quarterly cement prices on a sequential basis were affected by difficult competitive dynamics in a soft demand market environment. However, full year prices for our three core products were higher versus 2015. Europe January—December Fourth Quarter l-t-l % l-t-l % 2016 2015% Var. 2016 2015% Var.

In the United Kingdom, our domestic gray cement volumes increased 5%, while our ready-mix and aggregates volumes decreased 2% and 4%, respectively, during the fourth quarter of 2016 and on a year-over-year basis. For the full year, our domestic gray cement and aggregates volumes increased 7% and 3%, respectively, while ready-mix decreased 3%, versus the comparable period in 2015. Cement volume growth during both the quarter and the full year was driven by improvements in all of our main demand sectors. In addition, cement volume growth during the year benefited from higher sales of blended cement that resulted from fly ash scarcity. 2016 Fourth Quarter Results Page 4
Operating results In Spain, our domestic gray cement and ready-mix volumes decreased 12% and 1%, respectively, during the quarter and on a year-over-year basis. Adjusting for fewer working days during the quarter, our domestic gray cement volumes decreased 5% on a year-over-year basis. During the full year, our domestic gray cement volumes decreased 3% and our ready-mix volumes increased 2%, compared with the same period of 2015. Our domestic gray cement prices increased 2% sequentially during the quarter. Political uncertainty for most of last year weighed on consumer sentiment and construction activity was particularly affected during 2016. The residential sector, which was the main driver of cement demand during the year, benefited from favorable credit conditions and income perspectives, job creation, and pent-up housing demand. In Germany, our domestic gray cement volumes increased 1% during the fourth quarter and remained flat during the full year, compared with the same periods of last year. Competitive dynamics improved during the second half of 2016. 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 decreased 5% and 1% during the fourth quarter and the full year, respectively, versus the comparable periods in 2015. Our cement prices during the quarter remained stable on a sequential and on a year-over-year basis, while point-to-point prices from December 2015 to December 2016 increased by 1%. Cement volume decline during the quarter reflects further delays in infrastructure sector projects and a slight loss in our market position. The residential sector was the main driver of demand during 2016. In our operations in France, ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased by 1% and 6%, respectively, during the fourth quarter and on a year over year basis. During the full year, versus the comparable period of last year, ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased 4% and 6%, respectively. The residential and industrial-and-commercial sectors were the main drivers of demand during the year. The residential sector was supported by low interest rates and government’s initiatives including a buy-to-let program and zero-rates loans for first time buyers.

In the Philippines, our domestic gray cement volumes decreased 8% during the fourth quarter and increased 1% during the full year, versus the comparable periods of last year. Our volumes in the fourth quarter were impacted by “La Nińa-like” weather in our core markets. In addition, we observed a weakening in cement demand during the second half of 2016 mainly due to the new government’s transition. In Egypt, our domestic gray cement volumes decreased 20% during the fourth quarter and increased 2% during the full year, versus the comparable periods of 2015. National cement consumption during the quarter was affected by the currency depreciation in early November, which triggered inflation and reduced purchasing power. Our cement volumes in the same period also reflect a slight loss of market position due to our higher price increase, as well as a 7-day haulers strike in mid November. On a sequential basis, our quarterly cement prices increased 9%. Government projects related to the Suez Canal tunnels and port platforms in the city of Port Said, as well as housing complexes, drove cement demand during 2016. 2016 Fourth Quarter Results Page 5

Definitions of terms and disclosures 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 fourth quarter of 2016 and the fourth quarter of 2015 are 20.05 and 16.77 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 December 31, 2016, and December 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.

Debt-related information During the quarter: We repurchased approximately US$242 million of 7.250% senior secured notes due 2021 through a cash tender offer In relation to our Credit Agreement, we pre-paid in November US$373 million corresponding to the September 2017 amortization under the Credit Agreement; in exchange for this prepayment, US$664 million of funded commitments in the Credit Agreement maturing in 2018 were exchanged into a revolving facility, maintaining the same terms and conditions, including amortization schedule. In January: S&P Global Ratings ("S&P") upgraded our Corporate credit rating in its global scale to BB- from B+ and to mxA- from mxBBB in its national scale, which will allow CEMEX to potentially access the institutional Mexican bond market. The rating outlook is stable. In February: CEMEX Holdings Philippines, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of CEMEX, signed an agreement for a 7-year loan facility for up to the Philippine Peso equivalent of US$280 million, to refinance indebtedness owed to an indirect subsidiary of CEMEX. In turn, CEMEX expects to apply the net proceeds to general corporate purposes, including the repayment of indebtedness.
