2Q20 Financial and Operational Highlights:

(All comparisons are to 2Q19, unless otherwise stated)

• Sales volume of cement, concrete and precast decreased 60.3% mainly due to the halt in production and commercialization for most of the quarter due to the state of emergency declared by the Peruvian Government from March 16 until June 30, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We were allowed to resume cement production and shipments on May 20 in line with the Government’s economic recovery plan. Average daily shipments have experienced a steady recovery since we restarted operations.

• Revenues decreased 64.5% primarily due to the halt in commercialization mentioned above. If we compared June 2020 with June 2019, revenues decreased 30.6%.

• Consolidated EBITDA of S/ -5.7 million, a 106% decrease, mainly due to the halt in sales of cement mentioned above, as well as the fixed costs derived from the halt in production in April and May. EBITDA in June 2020 was S/ 17.5 million.

• Consolidated EBITDA margin of -5%, a 34.3 percentage point decrease. However, EBITDA margin for June 2020 was 22.4%.

• Net income of S/ -45.5 million, a 241.3% decrease mainly due to decreased sales and increased fixed costs mentioned above.

• In June, the Peruvian government signed an agreement with the United Kingdom government to execute S/ 7 billion during the next two years from the Reconstruction plan for El Niño related damages in 2017. This agreement will accelerate execution and promote efficiency for much needed infrastructure mostly in the North of Peru.
