Margins being eroded for cement producers in Mexico

13 April 2022

Mexico: Increases in raw material prices and energy costs, as a result of high inflation levels, will affect the operating margins of cement companies listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange in the first quarter of 2022, according to analysts quoted by CE NoticiasFinancieras.

Jacobo Rodríguez, director of Economic Analysis at Black Wallstreet Capital, explained that, "Despite the fact that companies are slow to pass on the increase in their costs to their final products, we will see pressure on their margins in their results in the first quarter of the year and from now on.”

Heriberto Sandoval, investment advisor at Increase Kapital, said “The cement industry is strongly affected by the increase in energy costs and, considering that the high cost pressures worldwide will be longer lasting than originally thought, this will lead to a decrease in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) this year.”

Mexican cement companies recorded a decline in the price of their shares between January and March 2022. Market leader Cemex led the way, with a 23.59% drop in the value of its shares. The second largest drop was seen by GCC, which lost 9.5% of its value. Cementos Moctezuma’s shares also lost 3.05% of their value in the first quarter of 2022.
