Print this page

China: State-owned China Resources Cement said that it expects its 2015 net profit to have fallen sharply year-on-year due to lower selling prices and exchange losses from foreign loans, following dismal data for the first nine months of 2015.

Its net profit for the nine months of 2015 fell by 60.6% year-on-year to US$165m, as its exchange loss from non-Chinese Yuan net borrowings surged fourfold year-on-year to US$83.8m. Cement and clinker also suffered from narrow gross margins of 24.1% and 11.3% for the nine months that ended on 30 September 2015 compared to 34.6% and 13.9% from 2014.
