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 9 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 slightly higher year-over-year at 18%. Controlling interest net income for the quarter was 145% higher year-over-year at PHP 169 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.    2019 First Quarter Results    Page 2

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 3

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 2,167,178 Deferred income tax assets1,067,565 Deferred income tax liability(92,674) Lease liabilities2,318,299 Retained earnings 11,951,819 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 STATEMENTAs originally reportedAs modified FirstJan-MarFirst (Thousands of Philippine Pesos)Jan-MarQuarterQuarter Revenues 5,891,2595,891,2595,891,2595,891,259 Cost of sales(3,445,425)(3,445,425)(3,425,635)(3,425,635) Operating expenses(1,889,136)(1,889,136)(1,873,087)(1,873,087) Other expenses, net2,2762,2762,2762,276 Financial (income) expense and others, net(455,528)(455,528)(536,139)(536,139) Earnings before income tax103,446103,44658,67458,674 Income tax(3,164)(3,164)10,26010,260 Earnings from continuing operations 100,282100,28268,94468,944    As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, assets for the right-of-use amounted to PHP 2,039.4 million and PHP 2,150.7 million, respectively.

Private Sector Strong demand growth seen during the quarter, with the residential segment growing faster than the non-residential segment. Construction employment rose by 13% year-over-year during the first quarter and reached its highest all-time level. Residential segment growth is expected to continue, as residential sites outside of NCR are developed. In addition, higher demand anticipated from Central Luzon and CALABARZON regions tied to upcoming transport infrastructure such as the MRT7 and other South Luzon projects. Non-residential activity to be driven by demand for office spaces from outsourcing and gaming firms, and flexible working spaces.
