US: Colombia-based Cementos Argos, Summit Materials’ largest shareholder, has sold its 31% stake in the company to Quikrete Holdings. The price of US$52.50 per share represents a rise by 38% compared to when Cementos Argos acquired the shares in 2023 through the combination of its US assets with Summit Materials. The sale, valued at US$11.5bn for 100% of the company’s shares, will reportedly enable Cementos Argos to pursue new cement, ready-mix concrete and aggregates opportunities in the US market. Supply agreements, including exports from Cartagena to the US, will continue. Through the deal, Quikrete will acquire 100% of Summit Materials’ shares, and the company will become a privately held subsidiary of Quikrete.
