<P STYLE="font: 8.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 6pt 0">We expect that the Company's net income in 2019 decreased by
4% as compared to 2018, mainly attributable to: (i) an expected increase of 158,000 tons of finished steel products shipped; (ii)
an expected 7% decrease in the average price of steel products sold; (iii) an expected 11% decrease in the price per ton of steel
products sold; (iv) an expected exchange loss of Ps. 785 million in 2019 as compared to a foreign exchange loss of Ps. 147 million
in 2018; and (v) an expected increase in the provision for income taxes in 2019 to Ps. 3,276 million as compared to Ps. 752 million
in 2018. As a consequence of these factors, amongst others that will be described in the Form 20-F, we expect net expenses of Ps.
1,306 million in 2019, as compared to net income of Ps. 3,653 million in 2018.</P>
