Second-quarter growth sets the benchmark

According to The Rio Times on July 23, 2026, Cemex reported second-quarter sales of USD 4.59 billion, up 12.00 percent year over year. Operating EBITDA rose 24.00 percent to a record USD 1.02 billion, while the operating EBITDA margin widened by 2.10 percentage points to 22.20 percent.

The same second-quarter report showed net income attributable to shareholders of USD 347.00 million, up 9.00 percent year over year. Cemex also raised its 2026 operating EBITDA growth outlook to 16.00-17.00 percent, giving the October results a clear numerical test.

What does the outlook mean for margins?

The key question is whether the 22.20 percent second-quarter operating EBITDA margin can hold while Cemex works toward 16.00-17.00 percent growth for 2026. The Rio Times reported that US operating EBITDA fell 11.00 percent to USD 248.00 million in the second quarter, while EMEA operating EBITDA rose 28.00 percent to USD 293.00 million, showing how uneven regional performance remains.

Three dated milestones shape the story

On July 23, 2026, Cemex reported second-quarter sales of USD 4.59 billion and raised its 2026 operating EBITDA growth outlook to 16.00-17.00 percent, according to Cemex. On September 3, 2026, S&P raised its outlook on Cemex to positive while keeping its BBB- rating, as The Rio Times reported.

On September 23, 2026, Fortune included Cemex in its 2026 Change the World list for the fifth time, according to Cemex. The sequence moves from operating delivery to credit perception and then to corporate recognition.

Upcoming dates carry the next test

Cemex's next substantiated reporting date is October 26, 2026, when it has scheduled its third-quarter 2026 earnings webcast. The following earnings webcast is scheduled for February 18, 2027, according to Cemex.
