LOGO

Colombia –Residential Sector During this 4Q18, we expect the residential sector to stabilize, supported by low interest rates, as well as by improvements in consumer confidence and in the intention-to-buy-a-home indicator We estimate that national-cement dispatches to this sector declined in the low-single digits during 3Q18 Social housing construction permits increased in the double digits YTD August along with healthy levels of home inventories The new government recently announced the pillars of their housing strategy in the next four years, with a home-construction-starts target of 1 million in this period, or about 250 thousand per year, a new rent-to-buy program and a new home-improvement program, among other initiatives 10


LOGO

Colombia –Infrastructure Sector We expect the infrastructure sector to increase in the double-digits during 4Q18; our volumes should continue to be supported by projects under execution Positive performance in this sector during 3Q18 our volumes were driven by the Salitre water-treatment plant and the CETIC Hospital, additionally, we supplied to the new garage of the Cali BRT system and to a group of 210 schools across the country We continued dispatching our products to several 4G projects including Autopista Mar 1, Autopista al Rio Magdalena 2, Bucaramanga-Barranca-Yondó and Bucaramanga-Pamplona We estimate 4G projects to demand 430,000 m3 in total for 2018, of which we already supplied 130,000, and we expect to supply around 30,000 more during 4Q18 11

LOGO

Panama –Sectors Highlights During 4Q18, ongoing infrastructure projects should provide volume support, particularly the Panama-Northern Corridor, the Transísmica-Road rehabilitation, and the ITSE college Weakness in the residential and industrial-and-commercial sectors expected to continue, inventory continues to be high in the middle-and high-end residential segments, as well as in offices For 2019, the government recently awarded two relevant infrastructure projects. First, the Corredor de las Playas highway with an investment of US$540 million, which is expected to start during 1Q19. And second, the fourth bridge over the canal, with an investment of US$1.4 billion, and which should start construction during 4Q19. We also expect that the third line of the Panama City metro be awarded during 1H19 and start construction during 1Q20 14

LOGO

Costa Rica –Sector Highlights For 4Q18, demand for our products should be supported by projects currently under execution like the wholesale market in the North-Pacific region, the new building for the Parliament, the new Central-Bank building, as well as by the new Coca-Cola plant The government recently announced a plan to reactivate the Costa Rican economy, that includes infrastructure investments for US$4.6 billion, out of which US$3 billion could be spent between 2019 & 2022. The government is ready to deploy US$350 millions of available credit from the Inter-American Development Bank in the short term to start road projects like Ruta 32 Cruce a Río Frío- Limón and Ruta 1 Cañas Limonal 17

LOGO

Nicaragua –Sector Highlights Because of the economic deterioration, we expect our volumes to decrease in the high-single digits during 4Q18 on a sequential basis Although violence in the country receded, consumer and business confidence has been severely damaged by the socio-political crisis, particularly affecting the tourism and construction sectors Our cement volumes during the quarter declined by 13% YoY and by 2% QoQ, our cement volumes were mainly supported by the continued activity in ongoing road projects from the government We reduced our operating expenses in the country by 45%, As we do not foresee the socio-political situation improving in the short term 20


LOGO

Guatemala –Sector Highlights Our cement and ready-mix volumes increased, by 14% and 19%, respectively, during 3Q18 The residential and industrial-and-commercial sectors were the main drivers of demand during the quarter supported by vertical-housing projects and shopping malls in Guatemala City We expect increased construction activity in coming months, as Guatemala will have general elections for president, congress and mayors in June 2019 21

LOGO

Income statement items Controlling interest net income reached US$20 million during 3Q18, US$8 million lower YoY primarily driven by lower gross profit and a negative effect in discontinued operations, partially offset by a positive effect in other expenses, net, as well as lower financial expenses and taxes Other expenses, net, were positive US$5 million include the positive impact from a reversal in a provision of about US$12.5 million related to the “Laserna” case in Colombia, which was resolved in our favor, partially offset by some other provisions made during the quarter Discontinued operations resulted in a loss of US$9 million, mainly due to completion of the Brazil divestment 24
