CHP POSTS P6.2 B 1Q 2019 REVENUES
| 1Q 2019 volumes improved sequentially by 9 percent but behind by 1 percent year- over-year |
MANILA, PHILIPPINES. APRIL 26, 2019 CEMEX HOLDINGS PHILIPPINES, INC. (CHP) (PSE: CHP), announced today that it posted sales revenues and net income amounting to P6.23 billion and P172 million, respectively, during the first quarter of this year behind better operating income and lower foreign exchange losses.
Sales volume during the first quarter posted a 9% improvement from the fourth quarter of 2018 when the companys operations were affected by the landslide in Naga City. Sales activity was still recovering at the start of the year but picked up towards February to March. As a result, quarterly cement sales volumes ended slightly lower by 1% compared to the same period last year.
Cost of goods sold during the first quarter went up by 14 percent compared to the same period last year because of the maintenance shutdown of its Solid cement plant which was not undertaken in the previous year. The company also utilized outsourced clinker inventory and cement imports that the company built up and ordered in late 2018 in response to the Naga City landslide.
For the quarter, CHP posted EBITDA amounting to P1.1 billion resulting to an EBITDA margin of 17 percent.
At the start of the year, we set out goals for the company to grow our sales volume with the market and generate production and distribution efficiencies. There were challenges at the beginning as we were still recovering our markets that were affected by last years landslide in Naga City but I believe we managed to make significant progress along the way, CHP President and CEO Ignacio Mijares said.
The company also announced recently that it will be seeking shareholder approval during its upcoming annual stockholders meeting on June 5, 2019, to increase its authorized capital stock for capital raising exercises that CHP may consider to undertake. CHP is potentially looking to raise up to US$250 million which would allow it to improve its capital structure, fully fund its ongoing Solid Cement plant expansion and provide balance sheet flexibility.
The strategic location of our Solid expansion project will allow us to efficiently contribute and take part the countrys infrastructure growth, Mr. Mijares added.

2019 First Quarter Results Page 2 Operating and Financial Highlights In millions of Philippine Pesos, except percentages and earnings per share 1 U.S. dollar debt converted using end-of-period exchange rate. See Debt Information on page 4 and Exchange Rates on page 8 for more detail. 2 In Philippine Pesos Net sales increased by 6% year-over-year during the quarter due to higher prices, a result of price adjustments implemented during 2018. Cost of sales was at 63% of sales during the quarter versus 58% in the same period of 2018. The increase was mainly due to scheduled kiln maintenance in Solid Cement plant, and cement imports and outsourced clinker carried over resulting from the Naga landslide incident. Fuel costs accounted for 18% of cost of sales, a decrease of 8 pp year-over-year due to use of hedged coal inventory and Solid kiln maintenance. Power costs accounted for 18% of cost of sales, a decrease of 4 pp year-over-year resulting from more competitive contracted power rates and lower power consumption. Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, during the quarter decreased by 5 pp compared to the same period in 2018. Distribution expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 4 pp year-over-year mainly due to supply-chain-optimization initiatives, and higher sales from cement imports carried over resulting from the Naga landslide incident. Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 1 pp year-over-year. Operating EBITDA during the quarter increased by 7% year-over-year due to savings in distribution expenses, while increased cost of sales were mitigated by higher year-over-year prices. Operating EBITDA margin during the quarter was flat year-over-year at 17%. Controlling interest net income for the quarter was 137% higher year-over-year at PHP 172 million mainly due to lower foreign-exchange losses and higher operating earnings. Total debt at the end of March 2019 stood at PHP 19,031 million, of which PHP 13,232 million pertained to long-term debt owed to BDO Unibank, Inc. 20192018% var20192018% varNet sales6,2375,8916%6,2375,8916%Gross profit2,2972,450 (6%)2,2972,450 (6%) as % of net sales37%42% (5pp)37%42% (5pp)Operating earnings before other expenses, net6095776%6095776% as % of net sales10%10%0pp10%10%0ppControlling Interest Net Income (Loss)17273137%17273137%Operating EBITDA1,0741,0007%1,0741,0007% as % of net sales17%17%0pp17%17%0ppFree cash flow after maintenance capital expenditures826836 (1%)826836 (1%)Free cash flow7617216%7617216%Net debt115,14613,47612%15,14613,47612%Total debt119,03115,32724%19,03115,32724%Earnings per share20.030.01137%0.030.01137%JanuaryMarchFirst Quarter
2019 First Quarter Results Page 3 Operating Results Our domestic cement volumes decreased by 1% year-over-year during the quarter as sales volumes were still recovering at the start of the year from the impact of the September 2018 landslide in Naga City, Cebu, near our APO plant. Sales volumes, however, increased throughout the quarter, reaching an all-time high in monthly sales volume during March. Industry growth was driven by a strong residential sector and sustained public infrastructure spending. Our domestic cement prices were 4% higher sequentially during the quarter, reflecting a consolidation of price adjustments implemented in December 2018 due to the impact of the landslide. Product mix effect also positively affected weighted-average prices, as well as a low base of comparison from the first two months of 4Q18. Our domestic cement prices were 7% higher year-over-year, a result of price adjustments implemented during 2018.

2019 First Quarter Results Page 7 Other Information Newly issued PFRS effective in 2019 PFRS 16, Leases (PFRS 16) In summary, beginning January 1, 2019, PFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize, for all leases, allowing exemptions in case of leases with a term of less than 12 months or when the underlying asset is of low value, assets for the right-of-use of the underlying asset against a corresponding financial liability, representing the net present value of estimated lease payments under the contract, with a single income statement model in which a lessee recognizes amortization of the right-of-use asset and interest on the lease liability. After concluding the inventory and measurement of its leases, CEMEX Holdings Philippines, Inc. and Subsidiaries adopted PFRS 16 using the full retrospective approach by means of which it determined an opening cumulative effect in its statement of financial position as of January 1, 2018 as follows: (Thousands of Philippine Pesos) As of January 1, 2018 Assets for the right-of-use 1,035,445 Deferred tax assets net 32,756 Lease liabilities 1,144,631 Retained earnings 1 (76,430) 1 The initial effect in retained earnings refers to a temporary difference between the straight-line amortization expense of the right-of-use asset and the amortization of the financial liability under the effective interest rate method since origination of the contracts. This difference will reverse over the remaining term of the contracts. CEMEX Holdings Philippines, Inc. and Subsidiaries modified the previously reported income statement for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 to give effect to the retrospective adoption of PFRS 16, as follows: SELECTED INFORMATION INCOME STATEMENT As originally reported As modified (Thousands of Philippine Pesos) Jan-Mar First Quarter Jan-Mar First Quarter Revenues 5,891,259 5,891,259 5,891,259 5,891,259 Cost of sales (3,445,425) (3,445,425) (3,441,490) (3,441,490) Operating expenses (1,889,136) (1,889,136) (1,873,087) (1,873,087) Other expenses, net 2,276 2,276 2,276 2,276 Financial (income) expense and others, net (455,528) (455,528) (515,096) (515,096) Earnings before income tax 103,446 103,446 63,862 63,862 Income tax (3,164) (3,164) 8,704 8,704 Earnings from continuing operations 100,282 100,282 72,566 72,566 As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, assets for the right-of-use amounted to PHP 937.2 million and PHP 1,042.5 million, respectively.
