Corporate CEO Pedro Lerner said “In Peru, we continue to see a positive trend, with a quarter in which our prefabricated building business achieved record revenues and market activity supported this performance. In the US, despite the challenging environment, we have maintained our market share in Arizona and increased it in California, which reaffirms the strength of our operation. We also highlight the modernisation of Termochilca, which exceeded the expected efficiency levels.”
Corporate strategy manager Alicia Campos said “This quarter our portfolio showed resilient performance, with higher volumes in Peru, Ecuador and Chile, along with sustained growth in our energy platform. EBITDA reflects this operational strength, while capital expenditure responded to the execution of strategic and sustainability projects, including environmental and efficiency improvements in our operations. These advances continue to strengthen our position and support the year-to-date performance.”
