瑞士Holcim9月凈利潤(rùn)上升33%
該公司9月凈利潤(rùn)是61,900百萬(wàn)法郎(57,300萬(wàn)美金)。隨著全球經(jīng)濟(jì)的復(fù)蘇,公路和住宅建設(shè)升溫,Holcim的銷售額增加了6.6%,達(dá)100.2億。
這些表明價(jià)格上升的正面影響遠(yuǎn)抵消了原材料等價(jià)格上升的負(fù)面影響。據(jù)中國(guó)水泥網(wǎng)了解,目前Holcim公司能量消耗占收入的9.2%。1到9月份,公司的營(yíng)業(yè)毛利潤(rùn)增加17.8%,去年是16.5%。
分析家們說(shuō),在拉丁美洲、亞洲、非洲和中東地區(qū),Holcim公司比其對(duì)手的發(fā)展形式更好,也就是說(shuō),在未來(lái)的幾年里Holcim將更多地受益于這些地區(qū)建筑的興起。
據(jù)中國(guó)水泥網(wǎng)了解,除德國(guó)之外,歐洲其它地區(qū)建筑行業(yè)興旺,水泥需求增長(zhǎng)超過(guò)了歷史記錄,Holcim公司的水泥、預(yù)攪拌混凝土和集料的運(yùn)送量都大量上升。(中國(guó)水泥網(wǎng) 轉(zhuǎn)載請(qǐng)注明出處)

Holcim 9-month profit rises 33 pct
Holcim's nine-month net profit rose by a third as firming cement prices and solid demand outweighed the effects of higher energy costs on the world's second-biggest cement maker, underpinning its upbeat outlook.
The Swiss group said on it expected to clearly exceed its target of 8 percent internal growth for operating profit this year and forecast "substantially stronger results", helped by an improved market environment in North America.
Nine-month net profit rose 33.4 percent to 691 million francs ($573 million), at the higher end of expectations and helped by the full takeover of Mexican unit Apasco this year.
Sales grew 6.6 percent to 10.02 billion as house and road construction picked up on the back of a global economic rebound.
"The results shows that the positive impact from price increases more than offsets the negative impact from rising raw material and energy prices," Bank Leu said in a note.
Energy costs currently eat up around 9.2 percent of Holcim's revenues, CEO Akermann said.
POSITIVE OUTLOOK
Its operating profit margin grew to 17.8 percent in the first nine months, compared with 16.5 percent last year.
Analysts say Holcim is better positioned than its rivals in the growth markets of Latin America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East, and that it is set to benefit from an increase in construction activity in the next few years.
Deliveries rose in all of Holcim's three segments -- cement, ready-mixed concrete and aggregates -- with Europe recording the strongest cement growth rates as building activity strengthened on the continent, with the exception of Germany. Cement demand also remained solid in North America.
