Deal Valuation Reflects Highest-Ever EBITDA Multiple for Cementos Pacasmayo
Swiss cement giant Holcim has struck an agreement to acquire Inversiones Aspi S.A. from the Hochschild Group, granting it a controlling 50.01% stake in Cementos Pacasmayo S.A.A. (NYSE: CPAC). The transaction, announced today, assigns Cementos Pacasmayo a valuation of S/ 5,100 million—priced at a multiple of nine times EBITDA for the trailing twelve months ending September 2025. This not only marks an all-time EBITDA record for Pacasmayo but also places the deal well above the company’s current market capitalization, providing shareholders with a substantial premium.

Company leaders emphasized the pride and confidence this investment brings, both in terms of recognition for Pacasmayo’s management and as a statement of faith in the Peruvian market by an international industry leader.
All-Time Record Highlights Operational Excellence
This all-time high EBITDA for the period considered underlines the company’s consistent performance, even in challenging economic cycles. Cementos Pacasmayo’s world-class production capabilities and established market position are at the heart of Holcim’s decision to invest—signaling a new chapter for the team and for Peruvian industry at large.
Transaction Awaits Regulatory Green Light with Completion Expected in 2026
The transaction remains subject to regulatory approvals and is anticipated to close in the first half of 2026.
