On May 26, 2021, CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE:CX) (“CEMEX”) informed the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores) that Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) has affirmed CEMEX’s Long-Term Foreign and Local Currency Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) at ‘BB-’. Additionally, Fitch has upgraded CEMEX’s National Scale Long-Term Rating to ‘A(mex)’ from ‘A-(mex)’ and affirmed CEMEX’s National Scale Short-Term rating at ‘F1(mex)’. Fitch has also revised CEMEX’s Rating Outlook of the long-term ratings from Negative to Stable.

According to Fitch, the revision of the Rating Outlook and the upgrade of the National Scale Rating reflects the ‘stronger than expected’ operating cash flow generation during 2020-2021 by CEMEX, primarily due to the increase in home improvement spending and residential construction, notably in Mexico and the United States.
