In Panama during the second quarter our domestic gray cement, ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased by 4%, 10% and 21% respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2014.

During the quarter, the positive performance in our volumes was fueled by higher sales to the residential sector, which continued being the main driver of demand for our products, as well as a basis effect related to the constructions workers strike in the second quarter of 2014. Cement sales to the Panama Canal expansion project declined by 58% during the quarter on a year-over-year basis.

In the Rest of CLH region, which includes our operations in Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador and Brazil, during the second quarter of 2015 our domestic gray cement and aggregates volumes decreased by 6% and 25%, respectively, while our ready-mix volumes increased by 23%, compared to the second quarter of 2014. During the first half of the year, our domestic gray volumes decreased by 7%, while our ready-mix and aggregates volumes increased by 21% and 2% respectively, compared to the same period of last year.

The positive performance in our cement volumes in Nicaragua was offset by weak demand conditions in the other markets. Housing and infrastructure in Nicaragua, along with industrial-and-commercial activity in Guatemala, remained the main drivers of demand for our products.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS AND DISCLOSURES

Methodology for translation and presentation of results

Under IFRS, CLH reports its consolidated results in its functional currency, which is the US Dollar, by translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries using the corresponding exchange rate at the reporting date for the balance sheet and the corresponding exchange rates at the end of each month for the income statement.

For the reader’s convenience, Colombian peso amounts for the consolidated entity are calculated by converting the US dollar amounts using the closing COP/US$ exchange rate at the reporting date for balance sheet purposes, and the average COP/US$ exchange rate for the corresponding period for income statement purposes. The exchange rates used to convert: (i) the balance sheet as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 was $2,585.11 and $1,881.19 Colombian pesos per US dollar, respectively, and (ii) the consolidated results for the second quarter of 2015 and for the second quarter of 2014 were $2,502.32 and $1,905.66 Colombian pesos per US dollar, respectively.

Per-country/region selected financial information of the income statement is presented before corporate charges and royalties which are included under “other and intercompany eliminations.”

Consolidated financial information

When reference is made to consolidated financial information means the financial information of CLH together with its consolidated subsidiaries.
