


Volumes of cement, concrete and blocks rose 8.1%
Revenues rose 6.5% to S/ 309 million

First Quarter 2016

Management Comments
Our performance during the first quarter shows the quality of our operations, and the improving industry
fundamentals in the northern region of Peru. Cement volumes rose year-on-year, with nearly 20% of total volume
coming from the Piura facility, the most advanced cement plant in Latin America. The ramp-up of the Piura plant
is now almost complete, providing us with greater capacity, lower costs and increased flexibility in logistics.
Financial results for the quarter were lower year-on-year, mainly driven by costs associated with higher clinker
imports to meet growing demand, the non-cash impact of currency movements and extraordinary expenses
related to reducing headcount in the permanent search for higher efficiency. All of these are non recurring
events. Piura began producing clinker mid-way through 1Q, and is now producing at a rate of 2,800 tons per day,
fully eliminating any need to consume imported clinker for the foreseeable future. Additionally, the company
incurred some non-recurring costs as we entered the final stages of the Piura ramp up, and carried out
maintenance at our kiln #3 at the Pacasmayo plant. Leaving all these non recurring events behind, going forward,
we are confident we will maintain a sustainable gross margin in the 40s.
The demand environment in the northern region of Peru shows further signs of improvement. Infrastructure
spending for January and February, the most recent months available, showed double digit growth from 2015.
Our three major projects keep moving along and new projects are now under way such as the city of Olmos and a
wide number of Eolic Parks. On a positive note the concerns over el Niño effects have diminished with the ending
of the summer which had been historically the riskiest season for this phenomenon.
At the national level, the recent presidential election points towards a supportive political environment. Almost
75% of the country has voted in favor of the current economic model: both candidates have business-friendly
policy platforms, and recognize the value of infrastructure spending. This raises the possibility of increased
federal spending on infrastructure at the conclusion of 2016. The self-construction market is also posting positive
growth, with economic growth and political stability supporting spending.
In 2016, we remain focused on our key advantages. The Piura plant has given us increased capacity with greater
levels of efficiency, while the need to consume imported clinker and expenses associated with the ramp-up are
now behind us. Lastly, we are the leader in the northern region of Peru, a market with healthy demand and high
barriers to entry. We are confident that the volume growth will continue to be positive during the year. All of
these factors position us to deliver growth and margin expansion when compared with 2015 results.

First Quarter 2016
Earnings Release
Economic Overview for 1Q16:
GDP growth for 1Q16 is estimated at 4%. As we had begun to see by the end of 2015, El Niño proved less intense
than expected, with fewer consequences than expected on the economy in the northern region of Peru. As a
result, public spending continued increasing.
In February, public spending grew 11%, the highest rate in over a year, and specifically the construction of public
works increased 16%. For the northern region, during 2016, most of the growth for the construction sector will
come from the development of major infrastructure projects including the Talara refinery, Chavimochic and the
Longitudinal de la Sierra highway.

Presidential elections took place April 10th 2016, and since no candidate obtained more than 50% of the vote the
runoff will be June 5th. The two candidates that will go to the runoff, Keiko Fujimori and Pedro Pablo Kuczynski,
represent business friendly and open-market policies and could guarantee the continuity of the current economic
model, and the ability to undertake reforms to improve the macroeconomic indicators.

Peruvian Cement Industry Overview:
Cement demand in Peru is mainly supplied by Cementos Pacasmayo, UNACEM and Cementos Yura. Cementos
Pacasmayo primarily supplies the northern region of Peru, while UNACEM supplies 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 23% of the country’s population and 14% of national Gross Domestic
Product (“GDP”). Despite sustained growth in the last 10 years, Peru continues to have a significant housing
deficit estimated at 1.9 million households throughout the country as per the Ministry of Housing, Construction
and Sanitation.
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”.

Clinker production volume at the Pacasmayo plant in 1Q16 decreased 39.3% when compared to 1Q15, mainly
due to scheduled maintenance of our main kiln.
Clinker production volume at the Rioja plant decreased in 1Q16 compared to 1Q15, mainly due to higher
production for inventory purposes during 1Q15.
During 1Q16, 96,518 MT of imported clinker were consumed, 25.3% more than the 77,000 MT used in 1Q15. This
was due to maintenance of the main kiln in Pacasmayo and the use of imported clinker for cement production at
the Piura plant during the ramp-up of the clinker production. The Company ceased importing clinker mid-way
through the first quarter, and does not expect to consume it again for the foreseeable future.

New Cement Plant in Piura
During 1Q16 the clinker production at the Piura plant began, marking the last stage of the plant’s startup. The
ramp up of cement production continued and we expect to be fully self-sufficient in clinker during 2016.
The new plant improves the Company’s competitive position in the northern region of Peru. With production
from three plants, the Company is able to serve its market more efficiently. This state-of-the-art plant is the most
modern in Latin America. It also reduces transportation costs by enabling the dispatching of cement from plants
within closer proximity to the point of sale. During 2016, as the clinker production finished its ramp up period, the
Company will achieve significant efficiencies at the consolidated level due to the elimination of imported clinker
and the use of more advanced production technology.
As of March 31, 2016, the Company has invested approximately US$ 363.0 million in the project. It is important to
highlight that at this point the project is under budget, with a total estimated investment below the original
budget of US$ 386 million.

Equity holders of the parent
Although revenues increased 6.5%, profit for the period decreased 47.0% during 1Q16 compared to 1Q15, mainly
due to increased used of imported clinker in the Piura plant during the startup and ramp up process, and in the
Pacasmayo plant due to the maintenance of our main kiln. Furthermore, the increase in the exchange rate had an
impact in results because some raw materials such as imported clinker and blast furnace slag were consumed at a
higher cost. In addition, the new Piura plant capital expenditures were capitalized, resulting therefore in an
increase of depreciation and financial expenses related to the US$ 300 million debt. It is also important to
mention that, the appreciation of the sol during 1Q16 caused a negative exchange rate effect in our dollar cash
position which also affected our profit for the period.

Projects
Fosfatos del Pacífico S.A.
In December 2011, the Company sold a 30% stake of the subsidiary Fosfatos del Pacifico S.A. for US$ 46.1 million
to an affiliate of Mitsubishi Corporation, a globally-integrated company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which
develops and operates business in multiple sectors.
In accordance with the terms of sale, Mitsubishi Corporation signed a long-term contract of purchase and sale
(Off Take Agreement), in which it commits to acquire 2 million MT of phosphate per year with the option to buy
an additional 0.5 million MT per year. The agreement has a term of 20 years.
Fosfatos del Pacifico hired companies to begin a basic engineering study for the project’s various sections. Those
selected were: Golder Associates to study the mine, a FL Smidth Minerals-Jacobs-Golder Associates consortium to
study the plant, Berenguer Ingenieros to study the port, and Pepsa Tecsult and Aecom to study the electrical
transmission and water. During the second half of 2014, value engineering was developed to identify
opportunities to improve design, construction, and project operations. Fosfatos del Pacifico hired the main
engineering companies (Hatch, Ausenco and WorleyParsons) according to experience and knowledge in various
areas. Within the main scope of this value engineering are the change in the methodology of mining, from a
conventional mining to a continuous mining system, thereby making the mining process more efficient; the
reduction of the footprint of the processing plant without reducing capacity; and size reduction of the port
according to the capacity requirements of the project.
In March 2014, the environmental impact study for the phosphate project was approved. This is an important
milestone in the development of the project and reflects the Company’s commitment to its execution.
In April 2015, the onsite Laboratory was certified as Overseas Member of the Association of Fertilizer and
Phosphate Chemists and ISO 9001.
During 2015 the project incorporated the value engineering findings, from a conceptual level to a basic
engineering level, which allowed for a more accurate analysis of the project. In order to integrate the engineering
efforts of the different components of the project, through a bidding process, Pacasmayo hired WorleyParsons to
act as “Project Management Consultant”, a position it will hold throughout the engineering process, as well as
during the procurement, construction, and start of operations.
The feasibility study was concluded at the end of 2015 and the Company is currently evaluating next steps.
Salmueras Sudamericanas S.A.
In 2011, the Company signed an agreement with Quimica del Pacifico (Quimpac), a leading Peruvian chemical
company, to establish Salmueras Sudamericanas S.A., in which the Company owns 74.9% of the outstanding
shares, with Quimpac holding the remaining 25.1%.
The basic engineering study was conducted by the German company, K-Utec AG Salt Technologies, which has
over 50 years of experience in the salt business, and is currently being evaluated by both partners in order to
determine how to move forward according to their investment priorities. The environmental impact study was
approved in December 2014.
