| • | In the first quarter of 2017, cement volume declined 9% versus same period of last year, but increased 4% on a sequential basis versus fourth quarter 2016. |
| • | Cement volumes in March 2017 were the highest in the last 17 months |
| • | In the first quarter of 2017, cost of sales remained stable as a percentage of sales and declined on a unitary basis versus the same period of last year. |
| • | Lower financial expenses due to the refinancing of its principal U.S. dollar-denominated debt into Philippine Pesos. |
MANILA, PHILIPPINES. APRIL 28, 2017 – CEMEX Holdings Philippines, Inc. (“CHP”) (PSE: CHP), announced today that consolidated net income for the first quarter of 2017 declined by 24%, to PhP 350 million, against pro forma net income from the same period last year. Lower volume and price were partially mitigated by better cost of sales and lower financial expenses.
Cement volumes were lower by 9% in the first quarter versus same period last year due to adverse weather conditions that persisted from last year into January and February and a high base of comparison which was marked by strong construction activity prior to the 2016 elections. In the first quarter, CHP’s prices declined by 7% on a year-on-year basis.
Pedro Jose Palomino, President and CEO of CHP said that “The first quarter sales performance has been challenging, but we are encouraged by improvements in cement volumes versus the prior quarter and a strong sales performance in March which was the highest in the last 17 months. As a result, our revenues also increased by 2% versus the prior quarter.”
Cost of sales declined by 14% in absolute terms and 6% on a unitary basis compared with the same period last year, mainly due to better energy costs despite inflationary pressure and higher efficiency at the plants.
As of March 31, 2017, CHP has refinanced and fully paid its U.S. dollar-denominated related party loan with New Sunward Holding B.V. with proceeds from a Senior Secured Peso Term Loan Facility with BDO Unibank, Inc.
Vincent Paul Piedad, Treasurer of CHP said, “This refinancing has slashed our financial expense and drastically reduced our foreign exchange exposure. Our consolidated financial expense decreased by PhP 187 million this quarter versus same period 2016 pro-forma. ”
Palomino added, “Despite the challenging demand situation, our company remains motivated by the prospects of Philippine construction, especially in light of government’s pronouncements on infrastructure investments. In the meantime, we remain focused on managing variables under our control and our plans for growth in the country remain intact.”

(7%) (7%) (2%)
Domestic gray cement volume decreased 9% during the first quarter of 2017 versus the same period last year. Adverse weather conditions,
especially in January and February, led to 24 additional downtime days compared with the same quarter last year, due to rough sea conditions and mandatory sheltering of our vessels. Strong construction activity before elections during the first
quarter of 2016 also resulted in a high base of comparison versus the first quarter of 2017.
Nevertheless, cement sales increased throughout the quarter as weather
improved. Sales volumes in March were the highest in the last 17 months. Sequentially, cement volumes increased by 4% in the first quarter of 2017 versus the prior quarter. We estimate that our market position remained unchanged compared with the
fourth quarter of 2016.
On a year-over-year and quarter-on-quarter basis, our domestic gray cement price in this period decreased 7% and 2%, respectively. The
price decline during the quarter on a year-over-year basis was mainly due to intensified competition from higher import volumes and weaker demand relative to the same quarter last year. However, the price decline on a sequential basis was mainly due
to product and geographical mix.

Presentation of Pro Forma Financial Information (For the purpose of the below clarification, the term “Company” refers to CEMEX Holdings Philippines, Inc., “CHP”” refers to the Company and its subsidiaries, and “CEMEX” refers CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. and its subsidiaries excluding CHP.) CEMEX Holdings Philippines, Inc. was incorporated on September 17, 2015 for purposes of the initial equity offering concluded on July 18, 2016 (the “IPO”). For accounting purposes, the group reorganization by means of which the Company acquired its consolidated subsidiaries was effective January 1, 2016. Several strategies discussed in the CHP primary offer prospectus (“the Prospectus”) were implemented upon conclusion of the initial equity offering: a) the new royalty scheme was implemented in July 2016 with retroactive effects as of January 1, 2016, and b) the new reinsurance scheme was incorporated prospectively effective August 1, 2016. These strategies are already in full effect in 2017. Nevertheless and for the convenience of the reader, and in order to present a comprehensive comparative operating information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, CHP continued to use pro forma selected consolidated income statement information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, intended in all cases and to the extent possible, to present the operating performance of CHP on a like-to-like basis under a “normalized” expected ongoing operation; therefore, as if the new royalty scheme and insurance agreements would have been effective from the beginning of 2016. CHP Pro forma consolidated income statement for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 appearing in this report represent combined historical selected income statement information of CHP subsidiaries, adjusted to reflect the 5% corporate service charges and royalties, and reinsurance agreements (on a like-to-like basis) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016. (Continued in slide 30) 29

Presentation of Pro Forma Financial Information (Continued from slide 29) In addition: (1) beginning fiscal year of 2017, a change in accounting treatment of the effects from the new reinsurance agreements will be adopted recognizing the same as a reduction in operating expenses instead of an increase of revenue (which was the accounting treatment utilized in 2016). This change in accounting treatment is presented in this report’s Pro Forma consolidated income statement information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 This difference in presentation does not have an effect on the reported Pro Forma operating income, reported Pro Forma Operating EBITDA or reported Pro Forma net income for the three months ended March 31, 2016. (2) the Pro Forma selected consolidated income statement information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 appearing in this report was prepared by (a) removing IPO-related operating expenses, (b) removing interest payments on short-term debt, and (c) annualizing long-term debt. 30
