Earnings Call Q3 2026
November 6, 2026 - AI Summary
Demand/volume outlook: still weak in 3Q, weather-driven, improving momentum in Sept—forecasting 2027 tailwinds
- Cement volume -6.3% YoY in 3Q; consolidated revenues -3.2% YoY.
- Industry pressure: July/August soft activity + heavy rainfall; September rebounded (company: “significant improvement”; industry dispatches +4.5% YoY and +18% QoQ/sequentially in Sept).
- Management expects weather normalization to continue supporting volumes; key upside for 2027 from RIGI-linked tenders/projects (participating in 7 tenders, some with 24–30 month horizons) plus broader economic recovery.
Profitability: EBITDA down YoY but resilience in cash generation; margin pressured by seasonality/costs
- Adjusted EBITDA: Ps 54.2bn (-6.7% YoY), margin 20.1% (down 74 bps YoY); in dollar terms EBITDA/ton $32.5 (+24% YoY).
- Cement segment: slightly better margin YoY and sequentially, with Sergio noting 3Q is typically the lowest margin quarter due to seasonal costs.
- Concrete/rail/aggregates remain mixed: concrete still in negative territory at EBITDA margin level; railroad profitability weakened.
Segment highlights (where performance improved vs worsened)
- Cement & Lime: volumes -6.3% YoY; bagged cement -8% while bulk cement +2% YoY (share gradually shifting to bulk).
- Concrete: revenues -23.2% YoY; volume -24.9% YoY driven by weaker public works/special projects and lower industrial/architectural activity (pricing partially offsets).
- Railroad: revenues -2.2% YoY; transported volumes -7% (partly offset by higher chemicals/chips and resumed services on a repaired rail section).
- Aggregates: revenues +3.7% YoY helped by pricing offsetting -16.1% volume contraction.
