MANAGEMENT COMMENTS

During this quarter, we saw the reversal of a negative trend in revenues that started almost 2 years ago. The increase in revenues was mainly driven by concrete sales, which almost doubled in this quarter as compared to the second quarter of 2023. This increase was mainly driven by sales volume related to the Piura airport project. Furthermore, we were able to achieve a 6% increase in consolidated EBITDA, mainly due to operational efficiencies derived from our new kiln in Pacasmayo and favorable raw material prices. We are confident that we can sustain these efficiencies, and we will strive for more in order to continue enhancing profitability.

Regarding the different business segments, bagged cement continues to be the largest operating segment, mainly due to self-construction activities. According to a study conducted by GRADE, a private research center, in Peru there is a requirement of 142 thousand new homes every year. Social housing programs only cover 30% of this requirement, leaving the remaining 70% to self-construction. Therefore, houses are built gradually over a longer period without complying with local building regulations. On average, the self-construction process takes 16 years, from the acquisition/occupation of the property to the completion of the home. During this time, families spend about 8 years in a completely precarious home, and an additional 8 years in a home under construction. These families are our consumers, when they buy a bag of cement, what they are truly buying is their dream home. They need solutions aimed at easing this unnecessarily long journey, which is why we are working on two projects that focus on financing and improving the quality of these homes. One of our programs offers a temporary housing service that helps low-income self-constructing families who want to live in better quality temporary homes. This program focuses on providing a temporary solution that can be transferred, without additional expenses to their permanent home, avoiding precarious situations and enabling its transformation for future use. On the financing side, we have AYU, our solution designed as an intelligent purchasing method so that people are able to define their project and buy the materials that they need, month by month, until they have all of the materials needed to carry out their chosen project. These programs are absolutely aligned with our purpose of building together the future you dream of.

On the private and public sector investment side, we are very glad to finally see some growth, after years of decline. In line with this increase in investment related to infrastructure, concrete, pavement and mortar revenues increased 82% during the first half of the year when compared to the same period last year. Sales volumes for this segment were mainly linked to the Piura airport project, since this quarter we finished phase 1 of the project, which included the construction of the temporary runway. Phase 2 of the project will tackle the reconstruction of the main runway, which began at the end of this quarter and should be completed by December. Precast sales this quarter also increased 46% year-over-year, positively affected by the acceleration of public sector projects. We expect this trend to continue, as public works carry on its execution and new projects start coming in line.

To sum up, this quarter marked what we believe will be an inflection point for top line growth, which we will continue to pair up with operational efficiencies that allow us to deliver robust profitability. Likewise, aligned with our client-centric strategy we are developing and expanding innovative solutions that are in line with our company purpose, delivering sustainable and resilient infrastructure in an attractive and cost effective manner.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW 2Q24:

During 2Q24, the Peruvian economy managed to overcome several months of contraction, showing slight growth. Better weather conditions and increased real incomes following the decline in inflation boosted consumer confidence and therefore private spending. Likewise, public investment at all levels of government began to show signs of recovery this quarter. The Peruvian Central Reserve Bank expects GDP to grow around 3.1% in 2024, the highest growth rate since 2021. This recovery is based mainly on improvements in the agricultural and fishing sectors.

In terms of private investment, after being in negative territory since 2022, during this quarter it showed growth, and expected levels for 2024 should be 2.4%, mainly based on optimistic business expectations, new large projects and better projections. Public investment also showed growth during the first months of the year, and the trend is expected to continue, reaching 12% growth at the end of 2024, mainly leveraged by investments from subnational governments. Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have accelerated. So far this year, ProInversión has awarded US$5.07 billion in the transportation, mining and electricity sectors. This result already exceeded by 117% the US$ 2,332 million awarded throughout 2023. Additionally, there are 17 projects to be awarded by the end of 2024 for US$ 3,200 million.

PERUVIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY OVERVIEW:

The demand for cement in Peru is covered mainly by Pacasmayo, UNACEM and Cementos Yura, and to a lesser extent by Caliza Inca, imports and other small producers. Pacasmayo mainly covers the demand in the northern region of the country, while UNACEM covers the central region and Cementos Yura the southern region.

The northern region of Peru, according to the Instituto Nacional de Estadística e Informática (INEI) and Apoyo Consultoría, represents approximately 32.5% of the country’s population and 16.0% of national Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”). Despite the country’s sustained growth over the last 10 years, Peru continues to have a significant housing deficit, estimated at 1.8 million households throughout the country according to the Ministry of Housing, Construction and Sanitation (80% qualitative and 20% quantitative deficit).

In Peru, the majority of cement is sold to a highly fragmented consumer base of individuals that tend to gradually buy bags of cement to build or to improve their homes, a segment the industry refers to as “self-construction”.
