Key Terms

senior notes financial
Senior notes are a type of loan that a company borrows from investors, promising to pay it back with interest. They are called "senior" because in case the company faces financial trouble, these lenders are paid back before others. This makes senior notes safer for investors compared to other types of loans or bonds.
shelf registration statement regulatory
A shelf registration statement is a document a company files with regulators that allows it to sell shares or bonds quickly when it’s a good time to raise money. It’s like having a pre-approved plan ready so the company can act fast without going through lengthy paperwork each time they want to sell, making fundraising more flexible.
prospectus supplement regulatory
A prospectus supplement is an additional document provided alongside a company's main offering details, offering updated or extra information about a specific financial product being sold. It helps investors understand the latest terms, risks, and details of the investment, similar to how an update or revision clarifies or expands on original instructions, ensuring they have current and complete information before making a decision.
MiFID II regulatory
MiFID II is a set of rules in Europe that aims to make financial markets more transparent and fair. It requires banks and investment firms to clearly explain their services and costs to clients, helping people make better-informed decisions when investing their money.
Insurance Distribution Directive regulatory
A set of regulatory rules that govern how insurance products are marketed and sold, aimed at protecting buyers and ensuring fair behavior by sellers. Think of it as 'rules of the road' for insurance sales: it requires clear disclosure of costs and conflicts of interest, sets training and competency standards for advisers, and shapes which sales channels and commissions are allowed — all of which can affect an insurer’s sales, costs and reputation, and therefore investor returns.
PRIIPs Regulation regulatory
The PRIIPs regulation is a set of rules designed to help individual investors understand the risks and potential rewards of complex financial products, such as investment funds and insurance-based investments. It requires providers to present clear, standardized information—similar to a nutrition label—so investors can compare options easily and make informed decisions. This regulation aims to increase transparency and protect consumers in the financial market.
Prospectus Regulation regulatory
A set of laws and rules that require companies to prepare and publish a prospectus — a detailed document about an offering of stocks, bonds or other securities — so potential buyers can see key facts like business plans, risks and financial numbers. Think of it as a product label for an investment: it helps investors compare offers, avoid surprises and make informed choices, and it also affects how and when companies can raise money.
regulated market regulatory
A regulated market is an organized trading venue overseen by government or independent authorities that enforces rules on who can list, what information must be published, and how trades are executed. Think of it like a store that must pass safety inspections and display clear labels: the oversight promotes honesty, regular reporting, and fair access, which helps investors compare options, find buyers and sellers, and reduces the risk of fraud or hidden problems.

MONTERREY, Mexico--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Cemex, S.A.B. de C.V. (“Cemex”) (NYSE: CX) announced today the pricing of U.S.$1.5 billion of its 5.750% Senior Notes due 2036 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be guaranteed by Cemex’s subsidiary, Cemex Corp.

The Notes will bear interest semi-annually at an annual rate of 5.750% and mature on June 5, 2036. The Notes will be issued at a price of 99.572% of face value. The date of issuance of the Notes is scheduled to occur on June 5, 2026, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Cemex intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of indebtedness and other financial obligations (including repayment of all or a portion of the outstanding borrowings under certain of Cemex’s credit agreements).

This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell or buy any securities of Cemex in any transaction.

Cemex is making the offer pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3 previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The offering and sale of the Notes and the guarantee are being made only by means of a prospectus supplement and an accompanying prospectus related to the offering. Copies of the prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus related to the offering may be obtained from BofA Securities, Inc. at +1 800 294 1322; Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at +1 800 831-9146; Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc. at +1 866 807 6030; J.P. Morgan Securities LLC at +1 212 834 4533; Mizuho Securities USA LLC at +1 866 271 7403; and SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc. at +1 888 868 6856.

THE NOTES HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED WITH THE NATIONAL SECURITIES REGISTRY (REGISTRO NACIONAL DE VALORES) MAINTAINED BY THE MEXICAN NATIONAL BANKING AND SECURITIES COMMISSION (COMISIÓN NACIONAL BANCARIA Y DE VALORES), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD PUBLICLY IN MEXICO.

The Notes to which this press release relates are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the “Insurance Distribution Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. Any offer of Notes in any member state of the EEA will be made pursuant to an exemption under Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended, the “Prospectus Regulation”) from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Notes. This press release is not a prospectus for the purpose of the Prospectus Regulation.

The Notes to which this press release relates are not intended to be offered, sold, distributed, or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom. For these purposes, (a) the expression “retail investor” means a person who is either one (or both) of the following: (i) not a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the “EUWA”); or (ii) not a qualified investor as defined in paragraph 15 of Schedule 1 to the Public Offers and Admissions to Trading Regulations 2024 (the “POATRs”); and (b) the expression “offer” includes the press release in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of any offer and any debt securities to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to buy or subscribe for the debt securities. Consequently, no disclosure document required by the FCA Product Disclosure Sourcebook (“DISC”) for offering, selling or distributing the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering, selling or distributing the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the DISC and the Consumer Composite Investments (Designated Activities) Regulations 2024. Any offer of the Notes in the UK will be made pursuant to one of the exemptions specified in Part 1 of Schedule 1 of the POATRs. The Notes will not be “admitted to trading” on a “regulated market” in the UK within the meaning of Section 1.4.1R of the UK FCA’s PRM sourcebook and, accordingly, no document will be required to be published as a prospectus as approved by the FCA in accordance with the PRM. This press release is not a prospectus for the purpose of the PRM or the POATRs.
