In Colombia, after the sharp decline in cement demand during April and May due to the lockdowns, industry volumes reached nearly 2019 levels during the third quarter. Our cement volumes declined by 6% during the quarter, reflecting an impact due to our price increase implemented in July and a high base of comparison as a new competitor entered the market in late 2019. Our cement prices increased by 2% and 8% on a sequential and year-over-year basis, respectively, reaching the highest level since 2016 in local-currency terms. The improvement on a sequential basis reflects our price increase implemented in July.

Panama is the country in the region with the longest and most severe restrictions on mobility and activity. Following government regulations, our operations resumed regular activities in mid-September. Hardware stores and certain infrastructure projects could operate during the quarter, while formal construction sites resumed operations in mid-September. Our quarterly cement volumes declined by 63%. In addition to the COVID-19 restrictions, our performance reflects a new cement producer which came into the market during late June.

In Costa Rica, our cement volumes during the third quarter declined by 21%. COVID-19 cases in the country accelerated in late June, prompting a 9-day quarantine in July only for the districts impacted by a COVID-19 surge. Although the lockdown did not impact our operations directly, it curbed cement demand during that period. Our quarterly prices improved by 2% sequentially and declined by 1% year-over-year, in local-currency terms. The sequential improvement reflects our price increase of around 4% for bagged cement, effective on June.

Our cement volumes improved by 25% during the quarter, reaching the highest level since the third quarter of 2016. Cement volumes increased in all countries of the Rest of CLH region. In Guatemala, our cement volumes improved during the quarter supported by an acceleration in the self-construction sector, segment where we have a higher relative presence. Additionally, our volumes benefited from tighter controls in the northern border—implemented because of COVID-19—which restrained flows of illegal cement imports. In Nicaragua, we are encouraged by the improvement in construction activity observed during the quarter and the first nine months of the year. Our cement volumes increased during the quarter driven by the self-construction sector, as well as by government-sponsored projects, such as a hospital, highways, and a social-housing complex.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS AND DISCLOSURES Methodology for translation and presentation of results Under IFRS, CLH reports its consolidated results in its functional currency, which is the US Dollar, by translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries using the corresponding exchange rate at the reporting date for the balance sheet and the corresponding exchange rates at the end of each month for the income statement. For the reader’s convenience, Colombian peso amounts for the consolidated entity are calculated by converting the US dollar amounts using the closing COP/US$ exchange rate at the reporting date for balance sheet purposes, and the average COP/US$ exchange rate for the corresponding period for income statement purposes. The exchange rates are provided below. Per-country/region selected financial information of the income statement is presented before corporate charges and royalties which are included under “other and intercompany eliminations.” Consolidated financial information When reference is made to consolidated financial information means the financial information of CLH together with its consolidated subsidiaries. Presentation of financial and operating information Individual information is provided for Colombia, Panama and Costa Rica. Countries in Rest of CLH include Nicaragua, Guatemala and El Salvador.
