Japan: Sumitomo Osaka Cement’s net profit in the fiscal year that ended on 31 March 2020 was US$102m, up by 40% year-on-year from US$72.7m in the fiscal year 2019. Sales fell by 2.4% to US$2.28bn from US$2.34bn. This was due to the collapse in cement demand following the coronavirus state of emergency declared in Tokyo and six other prefectures on 7 April 2020.
