In an adverse global economic environment - where the strong contraction of the Iberian market, particularly Spain, is especially significant - and in a quarter characterized by unfavourable weather conditions in most countries where the company operates, CIMPOR achieved an Operating Cash Flow (EBITDA) of EUR 123.5 million (8.7% down on the same period of the previous year), which once again demonstrates the quality of its assets and excellence of portfolio.
The EBITDA margin was 25.8%, 2.3 pp less than in the first quarter of 2009.
By Business Areas, the extremely positive contribution of Brazil is a highlight, where market growth combined with a significant appreciation of the Brazilian real was responsible for the 42.6% increase in Operating Cash Flow.
The South Africa, Turkey and Tunisia Business Areas also provided a positive contribution to the development of EBITDA. In the case of South Africa, the appreciation of the currency and expansion of capacity undertaken in 2008, providing for cement manufacture only using own clinker, resulted in an improved operating profitability. The gradual recovery of Turkey is to be emphasized - albeit with profitability still much lower than the Group average - and the dynamism shown by Tunisia is also of note, where the growth in consumption in the 1st quarter of 2010 allowed EBITDA to increase by approximately 19%.
The Egypt and Portugal Business Areas continue to deserve highlight for the importance of the contributions in absolute terms, despite recording negative changes in this reporting period. Egypt continues to register interesting cement consumption growth rates (though lower than the previous year), despite the interruptions on electricity supplies due to heavy rains. In Portugal, despite the fall in quantities, exports mitigated the impact on profits.
In negative terms, the Spain Business Area, as already mentioned, deserves particular attention. It is estimated that the market in this Business Area in the first quarter of 2010 declined by about 20% compared to the same period of the preceding year, following on from the decline in 2009 (compared to the first quarter of 2008) of nearly 50%. In 2009, CIMPOR implemented a major organisational restructuring plan to tackle the extremely difficult economic climate, which included, among other measures, the reduction of the workforce in the country by around 17% between the $1st$ quarter of 2009 and the $1st$ quarter of 2010.
Moreover, EBITDA was influenced by the costs associated with the Takeover Bid for CIMPOR at the end of 2009, which totalled about EUR 3.6 million. The logistics costs of moving clinker from the Iberian Peninsula to Egypt, to address the capacity shortfall in that country, also negatively contributed to the development of FRITDA

On a consolidated basis, sales of cement and clinker in the period totalled about 6.1 million ton, against 6.2 million ton in the 1st quarter of 2009, thus registering a decrease of 1.7%.
In a period marked by sharp contractions in some markets where CIMPOR operates, it is worth noting that consolidated turnover in the 1st quarter of 2010 - EUR 479.4 million, remained practically unchanged from the same period of the preceding year (down 0.5%).
Again Brazil was a major driver, with an increase in Turnover of 41.6% as a result of the increase in consumption combined with the strong appreciation of the Brazilian real (the increase would be slightly less than 20% excluding the currency impact).
As was the case for EBITDA, Tunisia, Turkey and South Africa recorded positive developments in Turnover. This was due to a less severe winter associated with certain market recovery in Turkey, the result of an increase in cement consumption in Tunisia, and as the result of currency appreciation and a slight recovery in sales prices in relation to South Africa.
The opposite was the case in, specially, Spain and China. In Spain, the significant shrinkage of the market caused a substantial reduction in Turnover. The significant decline in Turnover in China was due to the completion of a major contract (in addition to certain market contraction with a negative impact on prices), unfavourable weather conditions and the prolonged stoppage for maintenance of one of the plants.

(1) Including intra-group eliminations
Financial results for the first quarter of 2010 were negative EUR 3.8 million, which compares favourably with the figure of negative EUR 13.1 million recorded for the same period of 2009. It can be concluded that this improvement, excluding non-recurring profits, was essentially the result of the fall of interest rates in the market and their natural impact on a funding structure that has most of its financial liabilities tied to a floating rate.
Income tax amounted to EUR 16 million, lower than that recorded for the first quarter of 2009, in accordance with lower profits before tax.
As at 31 March 2010, the Net Assets of CIMPOR totalled EUR 5513 million, an increase of 4.6% from 31 December 2009. The value of assets denominated in currencies that appreciated against the euro significantly contributed to this increase. This effect is also the reason underlying much of the increase of Equity.
Investment in the first quarter of 2010 only amounted to around EUR 36 million, as a result of the adopted policy of financial restraint. Net Financial Debt declined by 5.1% from 31 December 2009, to reach the value of EUR 1,612 million on 31 March 2010.
The improvement of the financial position of CIMPOR is well illustrated in the Net Debt/EBITDA and EBITDA/Net Financial Expenses ratios - calculated according to the debt instruments method - which were respectively 2.72 and 14.62, compared to 2.82 and 11.26 on 31 December 2009, equivalent, in both cases, to marked improvements.
