According to the latest unaudited results released by Asia Cement (China) Holdings Corporation (743), revenue for the nine months ended 30 September 2025 reached approximately RMB3.73 billion, down from around RMB4.12 billion in the prior-year period. Gross profit amounted to around RMB563.93 million, a notable increase compared to the corresponding period’s RMB224.89 million.

Net profit attributable to owners of the company was approximately RMB146.27 million, a significant turnaround from the net loss reported in the same period last year. The basic earnings per share stood at RMB0.093, while no dividend was recommended during the period under review.

During the reporting period, domestic economic growth in China held steady amid challenges, but national cement production declined by 5.2% year-on-year. Markets in the central and downstream region of the Yangtze River struggled with prolonged high temperatures and rainfall, while the Sichuan region benefitted from reduced supply due to staggered peak production and managed to implement successive price increases in the third quarter.

Despite variations in demand across different regions, the company maintained its core market share. It continued to optimize operations through high efficiency, superior quality, and environmental initiatives. Looking ahead, the announcement indicates that overall cement consumption is unlikely to see a fundamental surge in the near term. Infrastructure construction may provide some support, but the sector remains heavily influenced by implementation of staggered production and adherence to industry self-discipline. The company aims to further improve cost control and cash flow while leveraging market stabilization measures to strengthen performance in the final quarter.
