Indonesia: Semen Indonesia has reported revenues of US$2.00bn in the nine months to 30 September 2019, up by 31% from US$1.53bn in the corresponding period of 2018. The Group’s acquisition of Holcim Indonesia in February 2019 expanded its domestic cement production capacity to 39.4Mt/yr, which it says has bolstered its competetiveness against importers in a crowded domestic market.
The company recorded US$91.7m in profit over the period, down by 38% year-on-year from US$148m as its foreign sections failed to grow.
