ALFA, S.A.B. DE C.V.
THIRD QUARTER 2017 FINANCIAL REPORT
ALFA REPORTS 3Q17 EBITDA OF U.S. $400 MILLION
Monterrey, N.L., Mexico, October 16, 2017.- ALFA, S.A.B. de C.V. (ALFA), a leading Mexican industrial company, reported today its 3Q17 unaudited financial results. Total revenues were U.S. $4,278 million, up 6% year-on-year due to higher sales achieved at all major business units. EBITDA was U.S. $400 million, down 29% vis-à-vis 3Q16, mainly explained by the impact of one-time charges in Alpek, related to accounts receivable from one of its clients. Excluding this extraordinary item, EBITDA would have been U.S. $513 million, down 8% year-on-year.
Alvaro Fernandez, ALFA’s President, commented on the Company’s results: “Overall, our subsidiaries delivered solid results and performed in line with expectations. This was partially offset by one-time provisions made at Alpek due to the financial issues of one of its clients. Sigma delivered strong results in all major regions, while Nemak’s results were lower year-on-year as it continues to face weaker conditions in the North American auto market. Finally, Axtel continues to increase its Enterprise and Government
businesses and advanced in the sale and delivery of transmission towers”.
Consolidated capital expenditures and acquisitions amounted to U.S. $326 million during 3Q17. Net Debt at the quarter end of U.S. $6,545 million was 10% higher when compared to the U.S. $5,943 million in 3Q16. At the end of the quarter, financial ratios were: Net Debt to EBITDA: 3.3 times; Interest Coverage: 5.1 times.
Majority Net Loss was U.S. $333 million in 3Q17, compared to Majority Net Income of U.S. $13 million in 3Q16. This decrease is mainly explained by the effects of provisions and asset impairments at Alpek which impacted both Operating Income and Comprehensive Financing Expense (“CFE”).

ALFA´S THIRD QUARTER 2017 2
SUMMARY OF GROUPS´ PERFORMANCE DURING 3Q17
Sigma’s revenues amounted to U.S. $1,608 million, an increase of 10% from 3Q16. By region, sales in Mexico increased
13% year-on-year, reflecting higher volume and higher average prices. U.S. sales increased 6%, mainly driven by higher
sales volumes. European sales continued to improve, increasing 8%. Latin America sales increased 17%, reflecting the
acquisition of Supemsa at the end of 2Q17.
Sigma reported 3Q17 EBITDA of U.S. $179 million, up 8% year-on-year, mainly explained by a solid performance of Mexican
and U.S. operations.
On September 1st, Sigma acquired the remaining 51% of the shares of Caroli Foods Group, BV. ("Caroli'), that it did not
already own, for €49 million, making Sigma the sole owner. Caroli, a Romanian company, produces and markets packaged
meats and ready to eat meals and generated sales of €88 million in 2016 and employs more than 1,200 people.
During 3Q17, capital expenditures and acquisitions totaled U.S. $122 million, funds were utilized for the acquisitions of
Caroli and Supemsa, the new plant in Burgos, Spain, other fixed assets and minor projects across the company.
At the end of 3Q17, Net Debt was U.S. $2,037 million, 11% higher than in 3Q16. Financial ratios at the end of 3Q17 were:
Net Debt to EBITDA, 3.1 times; Interest Coverage, 4.6 times.
(See appendix “A” for more comprehensive analysis of Sigma´s 3Q17 financial results)
Alpek’s third quarter 2017 financial results were impacted by full provisions and asset impairments associated
with Mossi & Ghissolfi (M&G) which proceeded to shut down its operations in Altamira, Mexico due to liquidity
constraints. Missed payments forced Alpek to halt PTA supply to M&G Mexico and M&G Brazil during 3Q17. Since
then, Alpek and its advisors have engaged M&G and its creditors to resume PTA supply; a suitable mechanism has
yet to be agreed upon.
Exposure to M&G is twofold as of 3Q17: PTA accounts receivable (A/R), and funding for its integrated PTA-PET site
under construction in Corpus Christi, TX. In accordance with IFRS, Alpek recognized the following non-recurring
items: i) U.S. $113 million A/R provision impairment affecting EBITDA, ii) U.S. $435 million intangible asset
impairment affecting Operating Income, iii) U.S. $95 million financial asset impairment affecting Financial Cost, Net,
and iv) U.S. $223 million deferred tax credit benefiting Income Tax.
The full amount of provisions and asset impairments is subject to restitution upon A/R collection or a definitive
Corpus Christi project resolution reaffirming Alpek’s capacity rights. Alpek will continue pursuing full restitution by
leveraging its competitive PTA supply in Mexico and Brazil as well as its secured claim in Corpus Christi.
Revenues for the third quarter totaled U.S. $1.3 billion, up 6% year-on-year, mainly due to higher average consolidated
prices in both business segments. Average 3Q17 consolidated prices increased 5% when compared with 3Q16. 3Q17
consolidated volume was up 1% year-on-year. Accumulated net sales as of September 30, 2017 totaled U.S. $3.9 billion, 7%
higher than the same period last year as a result of 5% and 2% increases in average prices and volume, respectively.
3Q17 EBITDA was U.S. $3 million, down 98% when compared with 3Q16. This quarter’s Consolidated EBITDA includes a
U.S. $113 million A/R provision impairment associated to M&G and a U.S. $9 million non-cash inventory gain. Adjusting for
the M&G A/R provision and the inventory gain, comparable EBITDA was U.S. $108 million and U.S. $152 million in 3Q17
and 3Q16 respectively. EBITDA was also affected by lower PTA sales to M&G in 3Q17. Accumulated EBITDA as of
September 30, 2017 was U.S. $243 million.
3Q17 Capex was U.S. $64 million, compared to U.S. $128 million in 3Q16. Most of these funds were invested in the 350
MW power cogeneration plant in Altamira, Mexico, which is advancing as planned together with other projects. An
ALFA´S THIRD QUARTER 2017 3
important milestone this quarter was the completion of the Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) capacity expansion project in
Altamira, Mexico. Alpek invested a total of U.S. $28 million to expand its 165 Kton per year EPS plant by 75 Kton per year,
making it one of the largest in the world.
The acquisition of PetroquimicaSuape and Citepe from Petrobras for U.S. $385 million is advancing. The transaction is being
evaluated by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) in Brazil. Closing is subject to CADE’s approval,
among other conditions.
Alpek continues to move forward with the sale of power cogeneration assets in Mexico, and is engaged in the final
selection stage to choose one of the offers received from potential investors for its power cogeneration facilities.
Net Debt as of the end of the quarter was U.S. $1,192 million, up 30% year-on-year, driven by the aforementioned
investment in strategic projects. At quarter end, financial ratios were as follows: Net Debt to EBITDA, 3.2 times; Interest
Coverage, 5.4 times.
Subsequent to quarter’s end, Alpek acquired from Inbursa all credit rights to a U.S. $100 million secured loan with M&G
Polímeros México S.A. de C.V. (M&G Mexico). The acquired credit rights are secured by a lien on M&G Mexico’s PET
production facility in Altamira, Mexico which has an installed capacity of approximately 560 ktons per year and is co-
located with Alpek’s PTA site. Alpek will continue engaging M&G and its creditors to resume M&G Mexico’s operations and
implement a definitive solution to M&G’s financial situation.
(See appendix “B” for Alpek´s 3Q17 financial report)
Nemak´s 3Q17 sales volume was 11.7 million equivalent units, 4% lower than 3Q16. Sales volume declined in North
America mainly due to lower vehicle production, with Ford reducing production of passenger cars and GM adjusting overall
inventories. Additionally, FCA’s 2016 discontinuation of its small- and- medium-size sedan lines continued to make for a
difficult year-on-year comparison. Volumes in Europe increased 6% year-on-year reflecting the strength of the market.
Meanwhile, in Rest of World, volumes increased 8% year-on-year mainly due to the continued ramp-up of new programs in
China and improved industry performance in Brazil.
Higher aluminum prices more than offset the impact of lower sales volumes, resulting in revenues of U.S. $1,099 million up
3% year-over-year. In turn, 3Q17 EBITDA totaled U.S. $153 million, down 16% year-on-year, mainly as a result of lower
sales volumes, negative metal price lag, and increased expenses related to new program launches. EBITDA per unit was
U.S. $13.10 in 3Q17, down from U.S. $14.90 in the same period last year.
Capital expenditures in the quarter amounted to U.S. $93 million as the company continued to move ahead with strategic
projects. Investments were made to expand capacity and to facilitate operational efficiency across the company’s plants in
all regions.
Net Debt at the end of 3Q17 totaled U.S. $1,387 million, up 4% from 3Q16, reflecting the capital expenditures during the
period. Financial ratios in 3Q17 were: Net Debt to EBITDA of 1.9 times, and Interest Coverage of 10.1 times.
(See appendix “C” for Nemak´s 3Q17 financial report)
Axtel’s revenues in the third quarter totaled U.S. $211 million, up 3% year-on-year, mainly due to higher sales to the
Enterprise segment which compensated for lower revenue from legacy businesses in the Mass Market segment. In peso
terms, total revenues decreased 2% in the quarter. Enterprise and government segment represented 80% of revenues in
the quarter.
ALFA´S THIRD QUARTER 2017 4
3Q17 EBITDA was U.S. $74 million, up 10% year-on-year, explained in part by a U.S. $9 million benefit from the second
tranche of the tower sale. Excluding this effect, EBITDA decreased 3% from 3Q16, mainly due to the decline in the legacy
wireless mass market business revenues and non-recurrent extraordinary revenues recorded in the year-earlier quarter.
Capital expenditures totaled U.S. $34 million in 3Q17 (U.S. $42 million excluding tower sales), including investments to
provide last-mile access to connect customers, to deploy IT infrastructure and to further increase data center capacity in
Queretaro, Mexico. At the end of 3Q17, Net Debt was U.S. $1,029 million, up U.S. $20 million year-on-year. Financial ratios
at the end of 3Q17 were: Net Debt to EBITDA of 4.0 times and Interest Coverage of 7.1 times.
(See appendix “D” for Axtel´s 3Q17 financial report)
Newpek’s revenues were U.S. $21 million, down 28% from 3Q16, as higher average oil and natural gas prices did not
offset a decline in production.
Newpek connected to sales seven new wells at the Eagle Ford Shale (“EFS”) in South Texas. This brought wells in
production at EFS to 639 by the quarter’s end, compared to the 628 wells in production at the end of 3Q16. Production in
the U.S. averaged 4.3 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (MBOED) during 3Q17, down 35% from 3Q16 reflecting
decline rates before drilling restarted in 2017. Strategic drilling and completion activities continued at EFS during the
quarter. As a result, nine new wells are expected to be put into production during 4Q17, for a total of 20 new producing
wells during the year. Additionally, five new wells will be drilled and completed in the Wilcox formation in South Texas,
where Newpek has a 20% working interest. In Mexico, production averaged 3.4 MBOED during 3Q17, down 3% from 3Q16.
3Q17 EBITDA was U.S. $1 million, unchanged from 3Q16. Capital expenditures amounted to U.S. $11 million, while net
debt was U.S. $30 million at the end of the quarter.
(See appendix “E” for more comprehensive analysis of Newpek´s 3Q17 financial results)
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS
3Q17 consolidated revenues were U.S. $4,278 million, up 6% from U.S. $4,023 million reported in 3Q16. The increase is the
result of higher sales across all major business units and mainly reflects higher volumes and prices in Sigma, higher
aluminum prices which offset lower volumes in Nemak, along with higher sales volume and prices in Alpek. During the
quarter, foreign sales represented 65% of the total, in line with 3Q16. Year-to-date revenues were U.S. $12,507, up 5%
from 2016, primarily for the same reasons.
3Q17 Consolidated Operating Loss totaled U.S. $302 million, down 190% from 3Q16, primarily due to the impact of
account receivables provisions charges and intangible asset impairments at Alpek of U.S $113 million and U.S. $435 million,
respectively, as a result of M&G’s financial difficulties, as explained in the Alpek summary section above. Alpek’s results
were also affected by lower PTA sales to M&G in 3Q17. In Nemak, operating income was negatively impacted by lower
sales volumes and negative metal price lag and decreased U.S. $37 million year-on-year. Sigma improved due to better
performance in all regions. In turn, Axtel´s operating income benefitted by extraordinary income of U.S. $9 million
stemming from the sale of transmission towers. Accumulated Operating Income was U.S. $269 million, down 76% from
2016.
3Q17 EBITDA was U.S. $400 million, down 29% year-on-year, reflecting the lower Operating Income explained above,
excluding depreciation, amortization and the aforementioned intangible asset impairment. Year-to-date EBITDA was U.S.
$1,450 million, down 19% from 2016.
ALFA reported 3Q17 Comprehensive Financing Expense (CFE) of U.S. $271 million, compared to U.S. $187 million in 3Q16,
mainly explained by a U.S. $95 million financial asset impairment affecting Financial Cost, Net, related to an
outstanding loan to M&G at Alpek.
ALFA´S THIRD QUARTER 2017 5
Majority Net Loss was U.S. $333 million in 3Q17, compared to Majority Net Income of U.S. $13 million in 3Q16. This year-
on-year decrease is mainly explained by the effects of provisions and asset impairments at Alpek which impacted both
Operating Income and Comprehensive Financing Expense (“CFE”) already explained, and by a U.S. $223 million deferred tax
credit benefiting Income Tax resulting from the same M&G-related charges. Year-to-date Majority Net Loss was U.S. $103
million, down 151% from the same period in 2016.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND ACQUISITIONS; NET DEBT
Consolidated capital expenditures and acquisitions totaled U.S. $326 million in 3Q17. All subsidiaries continued to make
progress on their investment plans as discussed in the initial section of this report. At quarter-end 3Q17, ALFA’s Net Debt
amounted to U.S. $6,545 million, U.S. $602 million higher than 3Q16. At the end of the quarter, financial ratios were: Net
Debt to EBITDA, 3.3 times; Interest Coverage, 5.1 times. These ratios compare to 2.4 times and 6.6 times, respectively in
3Q16.

ALFA´S THIRD QUARTER 2017 11
SIGMA | REFRIGERATED FOOD PRODUCTS
38% AND 44% OF ALFA´S REVENUES AND EBITDA IN 3Q17
Sigma is a leading multinational refrigerated food company that produces, markets and distributes quality branded foods,
including packaged meats, cheese, yogurt and other refrigerated and frozen foods. Sigma has a diversified portfolio of
leading brands and operates 69 plants in 18 countries across its four key regions: Mexico, Europe, the United States, and
Latin America.
INDUSTRY COMMENTS
During 3Q17, consumer confidence is higher year-on-year across Sigma’s main regions of operations. In Mexico, the
average consumer confidence index reported by INEGI (Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía – National Institute for
Statistics and Geography) has been recovering steadily since February and was up 2% year-on-year, while same-store sales
reported by the National Association of Supermarkets and Department Stores (ANTAD) increased 4% year-on-year in
nominal pesos. In Europe, according to the European Commission, the average consumer confidence index for 3Q17
improved to negative 1.5, from negative 8.2 during 3Q16, reaching a 10-year high. In the U.S., the average consumer
confidence index increased to 120 in 3Q17 from 101 during 3Q16 as reported by The Conference Board, the highest since
2000. Food retail sales reported by the U.S. Census Bureau increased 2% year-on-year.
Key raw material prices were mixed during the quarter and varied by region. In the Americas, most raw material prices such
as pork, turkey thigh and milk were similar during 3Q17 when compared to 3Q16. In turn, turkey breast was 29% lower and
chicken was 22% higher than the same period of the prior year. Compared to the previous quarter, turkey thigh and
chicken have decreased 15% and 10%, respectively. In Europe, pork ham prices were 4% higher than 3Q16, with increases
beginning during the second half of 2016 resulting in current prices above historical figures. In Mexico, the recent
appreciation of the Peso vis-a-vis the U.S. Dollar has eased the pressure in the cost of raw materials, as the industry
participants import most of its meats from the U.S.
OPERATIONS
During 3Q17, Sigma sold approximately 441 thousand tons of food products, up 4% from 3Q16, supported by growth in all
regions. In dollar terms, average prices increased 6% year-on-year, stemming from higher prices in all regions, and a more
favorable currency environment in Mexico and Europe.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Sigma´s revenues amounted to U.S. $1,608 million, an increase of 10% versus 3Q16. By region, sales in Mexico increased
13% year-on-year, reflecting higher volume and higher average prices. U.S. sales increased 6% driven by higher sales
volumes due to increased distribution in mainstream products, and growth in the heritage premium segment. European
sales continued to improve, increasing 8% in U.S. dollars, benefiting from the appreciation of the Euro. Latin America sales
increased 17%, reflecting the acquisition of Supemsa at the end of 2Q17.
Sales in Mexico accounted for 42% of the quarter’s total, while Europe represented 35%, the U.S. 16%, and Latin America
7%. During the first three quarters of 2017, revenues were U.S. $4,461 million, up 5% when compared to the same period
of 2016.
Operating Income and EBITDA were U.S. $125 million and U.S. $179 million in 3Q17, up 9% and 8% year-on-year,
respectively. This was primarily due to a solid performance of Mexican and U.S. operations, with sales growing this quarter
ALFA´S THIRD QUARTER 2017 12
while maintaining similar margins with 3Q16, resulting in increases in EBITDA of 10% and 8% y-o-y respectively. In Europe,
results from Caroli started consolidating in September.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND ACQUISITIONS; NET DEBT
On September 1st, Sigma acquired the remaining 51% of the shares of Caroli Foods Group, BV. ("Caroli'), that it did not
already own, for €49 million, making Sigma the sole owner. Caroli, a Romanian company, produces and markets packaged
meats and ready to eat meals and generated sales of €88 million in 2016 and employs more than 1,200 people.
During 3Q17, capital expenditures and acquisitions totaled U.S. $122 million, funds were utilized for the acquisition of
Caroli and Supemsa, the new plant in Burgos, Spain, other fixed assets and minor projects across the company.
At the end of 3Q17, Net Debt was U.S. $2,037 million, up 11% from 3Q16, mainly explained by the payment of the
construction of the Bureba facility and the acquisitions of Supemsa and Caroli. Financial ratios at the end of 3Q17 were: Net
Debt to EBITDA, 3.1 times; Interest Coverage, 4.6 times. These ratios compare with those reported in 3Q16, of 2.4 times
and 7.0 times, respectively, which benefitted from the insurance gains recorded in 4Q15 related to the Bureba fire.

Message from the CEO
Alpek’s third quarter 2017 financial results include full provisions and asset impairments associated to Mossi
& Ghisolfi (M&G) which proceeded to shut down its operations in Altamira, Mx due to liquidity constraints. Missed
payments forced Alpek to halt PTA supply to M&G Mexico and M&G Brazil during 3Q17. Since then, Alpek and its
advisors have engaged M&G and its creditors to resume PTA supply; a suitable mechanism may be implemented soon.
Exposure to M&G is twofold as of 3Q17: i) PTA accounts receivable (A/R) and ii) funding for its integrated
PTA-PET site under construction in Corpus Christi, TX. In accordance with IFRS, Alpek recognized the following
non-recurring items: i) U.S. -$113 million provision for A/R impairment affecting EBITDA, ii) U.S. -$435 million
intangible asset impairment affecting Operating Income or EBIT, iii) U.S. -$95 million financial asset impairment
affecting Financial Cost, Net, and iv) U.S. +$223 million deferred tax benefiting Income Tax.
The full amount of provisions and asset impairments is subject to restitution upon A/R collection or a definitive
Corpus Christi project resolution reaffirming Alpek’s capacity rights. Alpek will continue pursuing full restitution by
leveraging its competitive PTA supply in Mexico and Brazil as well as its secured claim in Corpus Christi.
In addition to its A/R claim as an M&G Mexico supplier, Alpek acquired from Inbursa all credit rights to a
U.S. $100 million secured loan with M&G Polímeros México S.A. de C.V. (M&G Mexico) earlier this month. Alpek paid
a lump sum of U.S. $101 million for the loan’s principal and accrued interest. The acquired credit rights are secured
by a first lien on M&G Mexico’s PET production facility in Altamira, Mexico which has an installed capacity of
approximately 560 Kton per year and is located next to Alpek’s largest PTA site. Alpek will continue engaging M&G
and its creditors to resume M&G Mexico’s operations and implement a restructuring plan for M&G Mexico.
Alpek’s Consolidated 3Q17 EBITDA was U.S. $3 million. Adjusting for the U.S. -$113 million M&G A/R provision
and a U.S. $9 million inventory gain, Comparable 3Q17 Consolidated EBITDA was U.S. $108 million, 9% higher than
2Q17 driven mainly by sequential improvement in the Polyester segment.
Polyester EBITDA was U.S. -$51 million in 3Q17. Adjusting for the M&G A/R provision and inventory gains,
Comparable 3Q17 Polyester EBITDA was U.S. $54 million, up 20% when compared with 2Q17 despite lower PTA sales
to M&G. Stable plant operations following multiple unplanned outages in 2Q17 as well as the recent recovery in oil
and feedstock prices contributed to sequential Polyester EBITDA growth.
Relevant polyester industry events in 3Q17 include petitions from domestic polyester producers to investigate
unfairly traded PET resin imports into the United States and Canada. In the U.S., petitions were filed with the United
States Department of Commerce (USDOC) and the United States International Trade Commission (USITC) against five
countries: Brazil, Indonesia, Korea, Pakistan and Taiwan. Separately, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA)
launched an investigation into PET resin imports from China, India, Oman and Pakistan. Before year-end, the USDOC
will determine whether to initiate an investigation, the USITC will reach a preliminary determination on whether there
is material injury, and the CBSA could apply preliminary import duties.
Plastics & Chemicals (P&C) segment EBITDA posted its third consecutive quarter above Alpek’s 2017 Guidance.
3Q17 P&C EBITDA and Comparable P&C EBITDA were U.S. $54 million as lower volume was more than offset by robust
margins. P&C volume was down 3% quarter-on-quarter due to temporary feedstock supply disruptions; most of which
were associated to Hurricane Harvey.
Third Quarter 2017 (3Q17) |
www.alpek.com 3
Capex totaled U.S. $64 million in 3Q17 as progress is ongoing in the development of strategic projects such as
the 350 MW Altamira power cogeneration plant. An important milestone this quarter was the completion of the
Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) capacity expansion project in Altamira, Mexico. Alpek invested a total of U.S. $33 million
to expand its EPS plant by 75 Kton per year to reach 240 Kton per year, making it one of the top five in the world. The
additional production unit started its gradual ramp up process in September 2017, a few months ahead of schedule.
The acquisition of PetroquimicaSuape and Citepe from Petrobras for U.S. $385 million is being evaluated by
the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) in Brazil. Recently, CADE declared this case as “complex”
which is a procedural act that allows a 90-day extension to the initial 240-day term for its analysis. Alpek will continue
working closely with CADE and Petrobras to obtain approval of the transaction. Closing is subject to CADE’s approval,
among other conditions.
Another initiative that continued moving forward is the sale of power cogeneration assets in Mexico. Alpek
is engaged in the final selection stage to choose one of the offers received from potential investors for its power
cogeneration facilities.
Alpek maintains a solid financial position supported by a strong balance sheet and liquidity. At the close of
3Q17, Net Debt totaled U.S. $1.192 billion and Net Debt to LTM EBITDA was 3.2 times or 2.4 times when adjusted for
the U.S. -$113 million M&G A/R provision that affected EBITDA. Furthermore, the balance of Cash and Cash
Equivalents was U.S. $447 million as of 3Q17.
The recent events associated to M&G’s financial situation were not considered in Alpek’s 2017 Guidance.
Volume, Revenues and EBITDA were negatively impacted in 3Q17 by the current M&G shutdown. However, the total
impact in 2017 may vary depending on a number of variables such as the duration of the M&G shutdown or potential
impairment restitution, among others. Alpek has limited visibility at this time to provide a reliable 4Q17 outlook.
Looking ahead, the base scenario is for Alpek to resume PTA supply to M&G in the short term. However, even
in an extreme full M&G shutdown scenario for 2018, Alpek expects its EBITDA to recover within a range of at least
U.S. $450 to $500 million based on preliminary estimations. Lost PTA sales to M&G would be partially offset with
higher internal PTA consumption, higher domestic PET sales, savings from strategic projects and higher PTA exports.
Additionally, 2018 EBITDA would not be affected by the non-recurring M&G A/R provision recognized in 2017.
Third Quarter 2017 (3Q17) |
www.alpek.com 4
Results by Business Segment
Polyester (Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA), Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), Polyester fibers – 72% of Alpek’s Net Sales)
Third quarter 2017 Polyester revenue was up 7% year-on-year and 2% quarter-on-quarter as mixed volume
growth was more than offset by higher average prices. Average 3Q17 Polyester prices increased 3% when compared
with 3Q16 and 4% versus 2Q17, reflecting the oil and feedstock price recovery observed after 2Q17 as well as a shift
in Polyester sales mix caused by lower PTA sales to M&G.
3Q17 Polyester volume increased 4% when compared with 3Q16 but decreased 2% versus 2Q17. The sudden
halt of PTA supply to M&G negatively impacted Polyester volume. Year-to-date, Polyester volume is 4% higher than
2016 driven mainly by growth associated to the integration of Selenis Canada Inc. (PET).
Third quarter 2017 segment EBITDA was U.S. -$51 million, including the U.S. -$113 million M&G A/R provision
and a U.S. $9 million non-cash inventory gain. Adjusting for the impairment and inventory gain, Comparable 3Q17
Polyester EBITDA was U.S. $54 million, 36% lower than 3Q16 but up 20% when compared with 2Q17. Comparable
Polyester EBITDA posted solid growth quarter-on-quarter driven mainly by the recent recovery in feedstock prices
(e.g. paraxylene and monoethylene glycol) as well as restored plant operations after multiple unplanned outages in
2Q17. Lower PTA sales to M&G and incremental secondary feedstock (i.e. isophthalic acid - IPA) costs that have not
been fully transferred to PET prices weighed on sequential Comparable Polyester EBITDA growth.
Plastics & Chemicals (P&C) (Polypropylene (PP), Expandable Polystyrene (EPS), Caprolactam (CPL), Other products – 28% of Alpek’s Net Sales)
3Q17 P&C revenue increased 4% year-on-year but decreased 2% quarter-on-quarter as lower volume was
partially offset by higher average prices. Average third quarter 2017 P&C prices were up 12% and 1% when compared
with 3Q16 and 2Q17 respectively, driven mainly by higher feedstock prices.
Third quarter 2017 P&C volume was down 7% and 3% when compared with 3Q16 and 2Q17, respectively.
P&C volume was negatively impacted by feedstock supply disruptions in Mexico and the United States. In the case of
Mexico, unplanned refinery outages weighed on domestic propylene supply and Alpek’s specialty chemical business
was subject to lower ethylene oxide supply. Moreover, temporary disruptions associated to Hurricane Harvey
affected the supply of certain feedstocks that are imported from the U.S. Gulf Coast.
3Q17 P&C EBITDA and Comparable P&C EBITDA were U.S. $54 million as lower volume was more than offset
by better-than-expected margins. PP margins have been resilient to high feedstock price volatility, while EPS and CPL
margins posted sequential improvement after 2Q17. Year-to-date, P&C EBITDA has consistently been above
guidance.
Third Quarter 2017 (3Q17) |
www.alpek.com 5
Consolidated Financial Results
Net Sales: Net Sales for the third quarter totaled U.S. $1.3 billion, up 6% year-on-year and flat quarter-on-quarter,
mainly due to higher average consolidated prices in both business segments. Average 3Q17 consolidated prices
increased 5% and 3% when compared with 3Q16 and 2Q17, respectively. 3Q17 consolidated volume was up 1% year-
on-year and down 2% on a quarterly basis. Accumulated net sales as of September 30, 2017 totaled U.S. $3.9 billion,
7% higher than the same period last year as a result of 5% and 2% increases in average prices and volume respectively.
EBITDA: 3Q17 EBITDA was U.S. $3 million, down 98% and 96% when compared with 3Q16 and 2Q17 respectively.
This quarter 2017 Consolidated EBITDA includes a U.S. -$113 million provision for A/R impairment associated to M&G
and a U.S. $9 million non-cash inventory gain. Adjusting for the M&G A/R impairment and the inventory gain,
Comparable Consolidated EBITDA was U.S. $108 million, U.S. $99 million and U.S. $152 million in 3Q17, 2Q17 and
3Q16 respectively. Comparable 3Q17 Consolidated EBITDA decreased 29% year-on-year but increased 9% versus
2Q17 supported by the recent recovery in oil and feedstock prices, better-than-expected P&C margins and improved
polyester plant operations following multiple unplanned outages in 2Q17. Accumulated EBITDA as of September 30,
2017 was U.S. $243 million and accumulated Comparable Consolidated EBITDA totaled U.S. $338 million.
Profit (Loss) Attributable to Controlling Interest: Loss Attributable to Controlling Interest for the third
quarter of 2017 was U.S. -$400 million, compared to U.S. $50 million and U.S. $25 million Profit in 3Q16 and 2Q17
respectively. 3Q17 Loss Attributable to Controlling Interest includes an aggregate net impact of U.S. -$416 million
from non-recurring charges associated to M&G affecting EBITDA, Operating Income, Financial Cost, Net and Income
Tax. Adjusting for the non-recurring M&G items, the Profit Attributable to Controlling Interest was U.S. $16 million
for the quarter and U.S. $127 million year-to-date.
Capital Expenditures and Acquisitions (Capex): 3Q17 Capex was U.S. $64 million, compared to
U.S. $128 million and U.S. $65 million in 3Q16 and 2Q17 respectively. Year-to-date Capex of U.S. $206 million is 24%
lower than the same period last year as investment ramps down due to completion of strategic projects. The majority
of these funds were invested in the 350 MW power cogeneration plant in Altamira, Mexico, which is advancing as
planned together with other projects. An important milestone this quarter was the completion of the Expandable
Polystyrene (EPS) capacity expansion project in Altamira, Mexico. Alpek invested a total of U.S. $33 million to expand
its EPS plant by 75 Kton per year to reach 240 Kton per year. The additional production unit started its gradual ramp
up process in September 2017, a few months ahead of schedule.
Net Debt: Consolidated Net Debt as of September 30, 2017 was U.S. $1.192 billion, up 30% and 13% year-on-year
and quarter-on-quarter, respectively. On an absolute basis, Net Debt increased U.S. $135 million in 3Q17. Dividends
and CAPEX were the two largest cash flow line items this quarter. Dividends include U.S. $72 million paid to
shareholders in September, as approved at Alpek’s Annual Shareholders Meeting. As of September 30, 2017, Gross
Debt was U.S. $1.639 billion and the Cash balance totaled U.S. $447 million. Financial ratios at the close of 3Q17
were: Net Debt to LTM EBITDA of 3.2 times and Interest Coverage of 5.4 times. Adjusting for the U.S. -$113 million
M&G A/R provision, Net Debt to LTM EBITDA was 2.4 times and Interest Coverage was 7.0 times.

Nemak reports 3Q17 results
- Quarterly revenues and EBITDA of US$1.1 billion and US$153 million
- Won new contracts worth US$570 million in annual revenues
Monterrey, Mexico. October 16, 2017. - Nemak, S.A.B. de C.V. (“Nemak”) (BMV: NEMAK), a leading provider of innovative lightweighting solutions for the global automotive industry, announced today its operational and financial results for the third quarter of 2017 ("3Q17"). What follows is an overview of the quarter’s main highlights:
Key Figures
For 3Q17, volumes were 11.7 million equivalent units ("MEU"), 4.1% lower year-over-year ("y-o-y"), with Europe ("EU") and Rest of World ("RoW") showing healthy growth while North America ("NA") reporting a decrease. Nonetheless, revenues were US$1,099 million up 3.4% y-o-y, as higher average aluminum prices passed on to customers more than compensated for lower volumes. Volumes for the first nine months of 2017 were 37.9 MEU, down slightly vis-a-vis 2016, while revenues were US$ 3,387 million, 3.9% higher mainly due to the same factors affecting quarterly comparisons.
3Q17 EBITDA was US$153 million, a 15.9% y-o-y decrease mainly due to the effect on operating income of the reduction in volumes already explained, plus negative metal price lag and increased launching expenses associated with new programs. On the positive side, EU and RoW reported solid results, driven mainly by new program launches. On a cumulative basis, EBITDA for the first nine months was US$550 million, 10.1% lower than the same period last year primarily due to the effect of lower volumes, negative metal price lag, foreign exchange, and higher launching expenses.
3Q17 capex was US$93 million as the company continued with investments to increase and adapt production capacity to meet new demand related to recently won contracts. Likewise, resources were invested in the continued ramp-up of new programs to produce structural and electric vehicle components in NA and EU. For the first nine months of 2017, capex amounted to US$324 million.

Message from the CEO
We saw mixed results this quarter, as our Europe and Rest-of-World regions showed healthy growth while lower volumes weighed on North America. Nonetheless, we remained on track to meet our targets for the year, successfully launching new, high-volume programs and advancing as planned with additional efficiency initiatives. At the same time, we continued to grow our sales backlog, winning new business in the quarter across our product lines worth a total of approximately US$570 million in annual revenues.
I am also pleased to share that we started ramping up production at our new plant in Slovakia, which is wholly dedicated to structural and electric vehicle components. This is our third facility in Europe serving these businesses.
Lastly, we provided a detailed overview of our long-term outlook at our Investor Day presentations in Mexico City and New York City on September 27 and 28, respectively. We focused on opportunities to drive growth in our core powertrain business while tapping into new trends towards vehicle lightweighting and electrification.

In the quarter, SAAR for U.S. vehicle sales was down 2.0% y-o-y, with retail sales remaining stable while fleet sales decreased. Meanwhile, North America vehicle production and Nemak customers’ vehicle production decreased 8.0% and 7.0%, respectively, mainly due to inventory reductions by GM combined with lower passenger car production by Ford and FCA.
In Europe, vehicle sales SAAR in 3Q17 increased 4.0% y-o-y, with increased sales across Western and Eastern Europe. In turn, vehicle production and Nemak customers’ production increased 5.4% and 4.0%, respectively, which was in-line with industry demand.

Recent Developments
During the quarter, Nemak won new contracts across its main product lines worth US$570 million in annual revenues. So far in 2017, it has won new contracts worth US$695 million in annual revenues.
Successfully completed the ramp-up of a new program to produce structural components for the Audi Q5 in Mexico.
Won a new program to produce battery housings for a high-performance hybrid platform of a North American OEM.
Financial Results Summary
What follows is an explanation of the results shown in the table above:
3Q17 total volume decreased by 4.1% y-o-y mainly due to lower demand for Nemak components from Ford and GM, with the former reducing production of small vehicles and the latter adjusting overall inventories. Another factor explaining the volume decrease was the comparative impact of FCA’s 2016 discontinuation of its small- and- medium-size sedan lines, as explained in past reports.
Regarding Europe, 3Q17 volume increased 5.9% y-o-y reflecting the strength of the market. Meanwhile, RoW reported a strong y-o-y volume increase mainly due to the continued ramp-up of new programs in China and improved industry performance in Brazil. For the first nine months, Nemak´s overall volume was slightly lower compared to the same period in 2016 with EU and RoW showing healthy growth while NA recording a decrease.
Turning to revenues, the effect of higher aluminum prices more than compensated for declining volumes, causing Nemak´s 3Q17 consolidated revenues to increase 3.4% y-o-y. Similarly, rising aluminum prices brought revenues 3.9% higher year to date ("YTD").
3Q17 operating income decreased 35.9% y-o-y, mainly as a result of lower sales volumes, negative metal price lag, and increased expenses related to new program launches. In turn, lower operating income translated into an operating margin of 6.0%, 360 basis points below 3Q16. On a cumulative basis, operating income was 20.1% lower than the same period in 2016, for the reasons already explained.
October 16, 2017 4
The above-mentioned decrease in operating income resulted in a 15.9% y-o-y reduction in EBITDA. 3Q17 EBITDA margin was 13.9%, down from the 17.1% reported in 3Q16. 3Q17 EBITDA per equivalent unit was US$13.10, down from US$14.90 in 3Q16. On a cumulative basis, the lower YTD operating income affected YTD EBITDA, which was 10.1% lower than the same period in 2016 for the reasons already mentioned. YTD EBITDA margin and EBITDA per equivalent unit were 16.2% and US$14.50, respectively, which compared to 18.8% and US$16.00 in the same period last year.
3Q17 net income decreased 81.0% compared to 3Q16 mainly due to lower operating income combined with higher interest expenses and foreign exchange losses. YTD net income was 32.8% lower than the same period in 2016.
Capital expenditures totaled US$93 million during 3Q17. As explained, investments were made to expand capacity and to facilitate operational efficiency across the company’s regions. For the first nine months of the year, capital expenditures amounted to US$324 million.
As of September 30, 2017, Nemak reported Net Debt in the amount of US$1.4 billion, including Cash and Marketable Securities worth US$130 million. Financial ratios were: Debt, net of Cash, to EBITDA, 1.9 times; Interest Coverage, 10.1 times. These ratios are similar to those reported at the end of 3Q16.
Regional Results
North America
In 3Q17, revenues decreased 4.9% y-o-y as the impact of lower volumes in the region more than offset higher selling prices. Turning to EBITDA, lower volumes was the main cause of the 26.8% decrease y-o-y; the adverse impact of metal price lag was also a factor, albeit to a lesser extent.
Europe
In 3Q17, revenues in Europe increased 11.2% y-o-y mainly due to new program launches and higher selling prices. Meanwhile, 3Q17 EBITDA increased 6.3% y-o-y, as higher volumes and a more favorable sales mix more than compensated for the effects of negative metal price lag and increased expenses related to new programs brought on stream in the quarter.
Rest of the World (RoW)
In 3Q17, revenues in RoW increased by 29.7% y-o-y reflecting a solid performance in China and industry recovery in Brazil, with sales volumes growing 8.3%. 3Q17 EBITDA in RoW increased US$2 million in 3Q17 compared to 3Q16 due primarily to higher profitability in South America.

San Pedro Garza Garcia, Mexico, October 16, 2017 - Axtel, S.A.B. de C.V. (“Axtel” or “the Company”), a Mexican
Information and Communications Technology company, announced today its unaudited third quarter results ended
September 30, 2017(1). Results presented on this report reflect figures consolidated under Alfa S.A.B. de C.V. The complete
unaudited third quarter results of Axtel have been filed with the Mexican Stock Exchange and are also available at the
Company’s website, axtelcorp.mx .
Note: Financial information presented throughout this report includes unaudited consolidated results for Alestra S. de
R.L. de C.V. and its subsidiaries (“Alestra”) up to February 14th, 2016, and for Axtel and its subsidiaries,
including Alestra, from February 15th, 2016, and thereafter.
Highlights:
Third quarter results continued demonstrating Axtel’s commitment to deliver IT and Telecom
solutions to enterprise and government customers under the highest standards of quality and
service. Axtel’s core segments posted positive results during the quarter. In peso terms,
Enterprise and Government recurring revenues increased 5% year-over-year, contributing to
a 6% year to date revenues growth, on a pro forma basis and excluding the negative effect
from the legacy mass market wireless segment. In the quarter, recurrent revenues
represented 95 and 87% of total Enterprise and Government segments, respectively.
In the third quarter, Axtel executed the second tranche of the Tower Sale agreement with
American Tower Corporation reflecting a net benefit of $9 million, expecting to receive
regulatory approvals to conclude the transaction in the fourth quarter 2017.
During the quarter, relevant progress was accomplished in the business strategy towards the
Red Compartida project. Axtel continued implementing infrastructure and capacity under its
vendor agreement with ALTAN, supplying metropolitan links, fiber capacity, collocation and
data center services to support ALTAN’s initial population coverage obligation due in March
2018. These investments should be translated in revenues in excess of $14 million in 2018.
The positive trend in Axtel’s performance and the benefits from the tower divestiture have
contributed to the 7% and 17% increases, in peso terms, in the quarterly and pro forma YTD
EBITDA, excluding merger-related expenses.

Cost of revenues(3) (excludes depreciation and amortization
cost). For the three month period ended September 30, 2017, the cost of
revenues represented $51 million, a 9% or $4 million increase, mainly due
to an increase in Telecom costs, partially mitigated by a decline in IT
costs. In addition, as part of the homologation accounting process
between Axtel and Alestra, costs that were previously classified as
operating expenses related to billing, collection and maintenance directly
associated with customers are being recorded as costs as of 2017. This
adjustment represents a year-over-year increase of $7 million in the
quarter. In peso terms, Cost of Revenues increased 4% year-over-year.
Operating and other expenses(4) (excludes depreciation and
amortization expense). In the third quarter of year 2017, total expenses
totaled $87 million, 5% lower than the $91 million recorded in the same
period in year 2016. In peso terms, expenses decreased 9% year-over-
year, mainly due to the positive effect of $9 million in other income related
to the second phase of the tower sale recorded during the quarter and no
change in operating expenses year-over-year.
EBITDA(5). For the third quarter of 2017, EBITDA totaled $74
million, a 10% increase compared to the same period in year 2016. This
figure includes $9 million of other income related to the second phase of
the tower sale. For the three month period ended September 30, 2017
and 2016, non-recurring merger and integration process expenses totaled
$6 million and $3 million, respectively. In peso terms, EBITDA increased
4% year-over-year, and without the tower sale nor merger-related
expenses, EBITDA declined 5% mainly due to declines in the legacy
wireless mass market business revenues and non-recurrent extraordinary
revenues recorded in the year-earlier quarter.

Comprehensive Financing Result
Total Debt. At the end of the third quarter 2017, total debt increased $21 million in
comparison with third quarter 2016. The increase is explained by (i) a $6 million decrease in
the long-term credit facility with Bancomext; (ii) a $1 million increase in accrued interests; and
(iii) a $26 million non-cash increase caused by the 7% appreciation of the Mexican peso.
Cash. As of the end of the third quarter of 2017, the cash balance totaled $48 million,
compared to $46 million a year ago, and $69 million at the beginning of the quarter. The cash
balance at the end of the quarter includes $9 million restricted cash.
Total Debt and Net Debt (7)
The comprehensive financing cost reached $35 million in the third quarter of 2017,
compared to $43 million in the same period of 2016, mostly explained by the lower FX loss
during the third quarter of 2017 due to a 2% depreciation of the Mexican peso, compared to a
higher FX loss in the third quarter 2016 related to a 3% depreciation of the Mexican peso;
partially mitigated by an increase in interest expense year-over-year due to increases in
interest rates.
In the third quarter of 2017, capital investments totaled $42 million, compared to $50
million in the year-earlier quarter, a 17% decline.

ALFA´S THIRD QUARTER 2017 45
NEWPEK | NATURAL GAS AND HYDROCARBONS
1% AND 0% OF ALFA´S REVENUES AND EBITDA IN 3Q17
Newpek is an oil & gas exploration and production company with operations in the United States and Mexico. The
company owns mineral rights in several states within the U.S. where it extracts oil, natural gas and liquids. In Mexico, its
operations are concentrated in two mature oil fields under a service agreement with Petróleos Mexicanos (PEMEX).
INDUSTRY COMMENTS
Hydrocarbon prices experienced less volatility during 3Q17 when compared with prior quarters. WTI oil price averaged
U.S. $48 per barrel, similar to the previous quarter, while Henry Hub natural gas price averaged U.S. $2.9 per MMBTU, 4%
lower than the previous quarter. The third quarter started with bullish signals for oil markets as OPEC revealed its
intentions to extend cuts through the rest of 2018, the U.S. rig count stabilized and summer demand season peaked, but
further price gains were hampered due to refineries closures along the U.S. Gulf Coast after Hurricane Harvey, causing oil
inventories to rise. Henry Hub prices also started the quarter rising as continued weekly inventory data reflected a lower
rate of injection compared to the 5-year average, but then temperatures were milder than expected and Hurricane Harvey
also affected gas demand, weakening prices by quarter end.
OPERATIONS IN THE U.S.
During 3Q17, seven new wells were connected to sales at the Eagle Ford Shale play (“EFS”) in South Texas. This brought
wells in production at EFS to 639 by the quarter’s end, compared to the 628 wells in production at the end of 3Q16. Sales
volume in the U.S. averaged 4.3 MBOED during 3Q17, down 35% from 3Q16, reflecting normal decline rates prior to
restarting drilling in 2017. Liquids and oil represented 67% of the total volume for the quarter, up from 65% a year ago.
Strategic drilling and completion activities continued at EFS during the quarter. As a result, nine new wells are expected to
be put into production during 4Q17, for a total of 20 new wells during the year. Initial results of the eleven new wells have
been encouraging. The new completion technique, testing longer laterals with higher intensity completions is proving to
yield higher capital efficiency than the original wells drilled in similar locations. All 2017 wells are being completed using this
new technology. Additionally, five new wells will be drilled and completed in the Wilcox formation in South Texas, where
Newpek has a 20% working interest. These wells are expected to be put into production during 4Q17. The prospects in the
other areas within the U.S. remained on hold during the quarter, but drill-ready locations have been identified and are
expected to be drilled soon.
OPERATIONS IN MEXICO
In Mexico, production averaged 3.4 MBOED during 3Q17, down 3% from 3Q16. The San Andrés field represented 69% of
the total production for the quarter, essentially flat year-on-year. There were 132 wells in production in Mexico at quarter’s
end, a 1% increase from the 130 wells in production at the end of 3Q16.
FINANCIAL RESULTS; CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND ACQUISITIONS; NET DEBT
Oil and gas prices increased on a year-on-year basis, with WTI Oil price up 7% and Henry Hub natural gas price up 19%,
however this was not sufficient to offset the normal decline in production volume, resulting in lower revenues in the
quarter, which totaled U.S. $21 million in 3Q17, down 28% year-on-year. 3Q17 EBITDA was U.S. $1 million, unchanged
from 3Q16. Capital expenditures amounted to U.S. $11 million, while net debt was U.S. $30 million at the end of the
quarter.
