FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the information contained or incorporated by reference in this report may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although we have based these forward-looking statements on our expectations and projections about future events, it is possible that actual events may differ materially from our expectations. In many cases, we include, together with the forward-looking statements themselves, a discussion of factors that may cause actual events to differ from our forward-looking statements.

Examples of forward-looking statements include the following:

• projections of our commercial, operating or financial performance, our financing, our capital structure or our other financial items or ratios;

• statements of our plans, objectives or goals, including those relating to acquisitions, competition and rates;

• statements concerning regulation or regulatory developments;

• statements about our future economic performance or that of Mexico or other countries in which we operate;

• competitive developments in the telecommunications sector;

• other factors and trends affecting the telecommunications industry generally and our financial condition in particular; and

• statements of assumptions underlying the foregoing statements.

We use words such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “expect,” “intend,” “target,” “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “forecast,” “guideline,” “should” and other similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements, but they are not the only way we identify such statements.

Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. We caution you that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements. These factors, some of which are discussed under “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Form 20-F, include economic and political conditions and government policies in Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Europe and elsewhere, inflation rates, exchange rates, regulatory developments, technological improvements, customer demand and competition. We caution you that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and that other risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements. You should evaluate any statements made by us in light of these important factors.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or future events or for any other reason.

AMÉRICA MÓVIL

We provide telecommunications services in 25 countries. We are a leading telecommunications services provider in Latin America, ranking first in wireless, fixed-line, broadband and Pay TV services based on the number of revenue generating units (“RGUs”). Our largest operations are in Mexico and Brazil, which together account for over half of our total RGUs and where we have the largest market share based on RGUs. We also have operations in 16 other countries in the Americas and seven countries in Central and Eastern Europe as of March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2019, we had 277.4 million wireless subscribers and 84.5 million fixed RGUs.

The following table sets forth the number of our wireless subscribers and our fixed RGUs, which together make up our total RGUs, in the countries where we operate. Wireless subscribers consist of the number of prepaid and postpaid subscribers to our wireless services. Fixed RGUs consist of fixed voice, fixed data and Pay TV units (which include customers of our Pay TV services and, separately, of certain other digital services). The table includes total subscribers and fixed RGUs of all of our consolidated subsidiaries, without adjustment where our equity interest is less than 100%, for the reportable segments that we use in our consolidated financial statements.

Consolidated Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

Our financial statements are presented in Mexican pesos, but our operations outside of Mexico account for a significant portion of our revenues and expenses. Currency variations between the Mexican peso and the currencies of our non-Mexican subsidiaries affect our results of operations as reported in Mexican pesos.

We adopted IFRS 16 Leases as of January 1, 2019. The principal effect of adopting IFRS 16 on our consolidated statement of financial position was to increase lease debt and right of use assets by similar amounts. In our condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the adoption of IFRS 16 resulted in lower operating costs and higher depreciation and interest expense, with a limited effect on net profit. We have not restated prior periods to give effect to IFRS 16 because we elected the modified retrospective approach in our adoption of this new standard, so the comparison of our results of operations for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018 is affected by the adoption of IFRS 16. The tables below set forth the effects of IFRS 16 on our income statement and balance sheet data presented above in this Form 6-K.

Table of Contents

In the following discussion regarding our operating revenues and operating costs and expenses, we also include a discussion of the change in the different components of our revenues and cost and expenses between periods at constant exchange rates ( i.e ., using the same exchange rate to translate the local-currency results of our non-Mexican operations for both periods). We believe that this additional information helps investors better understand the performance of our non-Mexican operations and their contribution to our consolidated results.

Operating Revenues

Total operating revenues for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 3.1%, or Ps.7.9 billion, over the first three months of 2018, reflecting the depreciation of most of our operating currencies against the Mexican peso. At constant exchange rates, total operating revenues for the first three months of 2019 increased by 3.0% over the first three months of 2018.

Revenues Services —Revenues services for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 3.7%, or Ps.8.1 billion, over the first three months of 2018. At constant exchange rates, revenues services for the first three months of 2019 increased by 2.5% over the first three months of 2018. This increase principally reflects increases in revenues from broadband and postpaid wireless services, which was partially offset by a decrease in Pay TV revenues.

Sales of Equipment —Sales of equipment for the first three months of 2019 increased by 0.5%, or Ps.0.2 billion, over the first three months of 2018. At constant exchange rates, sales of equipment for the first three months of 2019 increased by 5.5% over the first three months of 2018. The increase principally reflects higher sales of data-enabled devices and accessories and an increase in handset financing plans.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Cost of sales —Cost of sales for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 1.5%, or Ps.0.6 billion, over the first three months of 2018. At constant exchange rates, cost of sales for the first three months of 2019 increased by 1.8% over the first three months of 2018. This increase principally reflects increased sales of higher-end smartphones and an increase in handset financing plans.

Cost of services —Cost of services for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 7.9%, or Ps.6.5 billion, over the first three months of 2018. At constant exchange rates, cost of services for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 3.1% over the first three months of 2018. This decrease principally reflects the impact of our adoption of IFRS 16.

Commercial, Administrative and General Expenses —Commercial, administrative and general expenses for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 5.5%, or Ps.3.2 billion, over the first three months of 2018. At constant exchange rates, commercial, administrative and general expenses for the first three months of 2019 increased by 0.9% over the first three months of 2018. This increase principally reflects higher personnel costs and activation fees, which was partially offset by a reduction in lease expense.

Other Expenses— Other expenses for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 32.0%, or Ps.0.7 billion, over the first three months of 2018. This decrease principally reflects insurance expenses and asset retirements caused by Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico in 2018.

Depreciation and amortization —Depreciation and amortization for the first three months of 2019 decreased by 4.2%, or Ps.1.8 billion, over the first three months of 2018. Absent the effect of our adoption of IFRS 16, depreciation and amortization would have decreased by 18.4%. As a percentage of operating revenues, depreciation and amortization for the first three months of 2019 was 16.1%, as compared to 16.3% for the first three months of 2018. This decrease principally reflects adjustments in 2018 to the useful lives of assets in Brazil, which was partially offset by our adoption of IFRS 16.

Operating Income

Operating income for the first three months of 2019 increased by 15.7%, or Ps.4.8 billion, over the first three months of 2018. Operating margin (operating income as a percentage of operating revenues) for the first three months of 2019 was 14.4%, as compared to 12.1% for the first three months of 2018.

Non-Operating Items

Net Interest Expense —Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) for the first three months of 2019 increased by 15.8%, or Ps.1.2 billion, over the first three months of 2018. This increase principally reflects our adoption of IFRS 16.

Foreign Currency Exchange Gain, Net —We recorded a net exchange gain of Ps.8.3 billion for the first three months of 2019, compared to a net exchange gain of Ps.22.9 billion for the first three months of 2018. The gain principally reflects the depreciation of some of the currencies in which our indebtedness is denominated against our functional currency.

Table of Contents

Valuation of Derivatives, Interest Cost from Labor Obligations and Other Financial Items, Net — The net change in valuation of derivatives and other financial items represented a charge of Ps.0.7 billion for the first three months of 2019, compared to a charge of Ps.14.4 billion for the first three months of 2018. The charge principally reflects the interest cost of labor obligations, which was partially offset by a gain in the fair value of our derivative financial instruments, driven by the reduction in U.S. long-term interest rates and the appreciation of the Pound Sterling against the U.S. dollar.

Income Tax — Our income tax expenses for the first three months of 2019 increased by 11.1% over the first three months of 2018. This increase principally reflects higher profit before income tax due to higher operating income, lower foreign exchange gain and lower valuation of derivatives in 2019 compared to 2018. Our effective corporate income tax rate as a percentage of profit before income tax was 40.9% for the first three months of 2019, as compared to 40.0% for the first three months of 2018. This rate differed from the Mexican statutory rate of 30% principally because of taxable inflationary effects, employee benefits and non-taxable items.

Net Profit

We recorded net profit of Ps.20.2 billion for the first three months of 2019, an increase of 6.8%, or Ps.1.3 billion over the first three months of 2018.

Segment Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2019

The following table sets forth the exchange rates used to translate the results of our significant non-Mexican operations, as expressed in Mexican pesos per foreign currency unit, and the change from the rate used in the prior period indicated.

The following discussion addresses the financial performance of each of our reportable segments by comparing results for the first three months of 2019 and 2018. In the period-to-period comparisons for each segment, we include percentage changes in operating revenues, operating income and operating margin (operating income as a percentage of operating revenues). Comparisons in the following discussion are calculated using figures in Mexican pesos. We also include percentage changes in adjusted segment operating revenues, adjusted segment operating income and adjusted operating margin (adjusted operating income as a percentage of adjusted operating revenues). The adjustments eliminate (i) certain intersegment transactions, (ii) for our non-Mexican segments, the effects of exchange rate changes and (iii) for the Mexican Wireless segment only, revenues and costs of group corporate activities and other businesses that are allocated to the Mexico Wireless segment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2019, we had net debt (total debt minus cash and cash equivalents and equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income and other short-term investments) of Ps.586.5 billion, compared to Ps.568.2 billion as of December 31, 2018. Net debt excludes Ps.116.3 billion of lease debt that was included as a result of our adoption of IFRS 16. As of March 31, 2019, cash and cash equivalents and equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income and other short-term investments amounted to Ps.67.8 billion, compared to Ps.70.7 billion as of December 31, 2018.

Our total indebtedness, excluding lease debt, as of March 31, 2019, was Ps.654.3 billion, of which Ps.161.4 billion was short-term debt (including the current portion of long-term debt). Without considering the effect of hedging instruments used to manage our interest rate and foreign exchange exposures, approximately Ps.194.6 billion, or 29.7%, of our total indebtedness as of March 31, 2019, was denominated in U.S. dollars.

The maturities of our long-term debt as of March 31, 2019, excluding lease debt, were as follows:

Years	Amount
	(in millions of Mexican pesos)
2020	Ps.	69,604
2021		52,554
2022		96,256
2023 and thereafter		274,503
Total	Ps.	492,917

We regularly assess our interest rate and currency exchange exposures in order to determine how to manage the risk associated with these exposures. As of March 31, 2019, the net fair value of our derivatives and other financial items was a net liability of Ps.6.7 billion.

During the first three months of 2019, we used approximately Ps.27.9 billion to fund capital expenditures, which was primarily funded by our operating activities. We have also continued to repurchase shares of our capital stock under our share repurchase program: during the first three months of 2019, we spent Ps.0.02 billion repurchasing our shares in the open market. Whether we continue to do so will depend on our operating cash flow and on various other considerations, including market prices and our other capital requirements.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

The information presented below concerns recent developments since the original filing of our 2018 Form 20-F on April 11, 2019, through the date of this report on Form 6-K.

On April 29, 2019, the Salvadoran antitrust authority ( Superintendencia de Competencia or “SC”) notified us that our request made on March 5th for the authorization to purchase Telefonica’s Operations in El Salvador could not be admitted for analysis of its merits by the SC due to an alleged failure to provide certain corporate documentation. We will file a new request for authorization.

The United States and other jurisdictions have expressed concerns relating to alleged security risks and violations of intellectual property rights and export controls relating to Chinese telecommunications companies such as Huawei, one of our key suppliers. The United States has announced restrictions on exports to Huawei and has taken steps towards imposing additional restrictions on the use within U.S. jurisdiction of information and communications technology from China. If these measures have an impact on Huawei’s ability to timely deliver materials, equipment, and services to us, our business could be adversely affected, but we cannot yet predict the impact, if any, of any such measures. See “Risk Factors—We rely on key suppliers to provide equipment that we need to operate our business” in the 2018 Form 20-F.
