2Q23 FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS:
(All comparisons are to 2Q22, unless otherwise stated)

- Sales volume of cement, concrete and precast decreased by 17.9%, mainly due to the above-mentioned reasons.
- Consolidated EBITDA margin of 25.5%, a 1.5 percentage point increase, mainly due to decreased costs as we stopped using imported clinker.

- Net income of S/ 43.5 million, a 9.4% decrease mainly due to decreased revenues as mentioned above.
6M23 FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS:
