CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX) announced that on September 30, 2016 it informed the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores) that CEMEX, together with Grupo Cementos de Chihuahua, S.A.B. de C.V. (“GCC”), filed with the National Banking and Securities Commission of Mexico (Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores) (“CNBV”) a request for, among other things, approval so that CEMEX can make a secondary public offering of the 23% share capital that CEMEX directly owns in GCC. Subject to obtaining the corresponding approval from the CNBV, CEMEX has the intention to, in a secondary public offering to investors in Mexico and in a concurrent private placement to eligible investors outside of Mexico, offer its 23% interest in GCC’s capital stock. The filing of the request for approval with the CNBV is a step in one of the alternatives CEMEX is exploring in the context of CEMEX’s previously announced asset divestiture plan.
