China: Huaxin Cement’s operating income decreased by 2% year-on-year to US$2.08bn in the first half of 2022 from US$2.13bn in the same period in 2021. Its net profit dropped by 35% to US$230m from US$353m. Its sales volumes of cement and clinker declined by 22% to 29Mt. Domestically, the group blamed the situation on the coronavirus pandemic, a “sharp” decline in demand for cement, the high cost of fuel and pressure on prices.
