Kenya: East African Portland Cement’s (EAPCC) profit has fallen by 42% to US$41m in the first half of 2016 from US$70.7m in the same period of 2015. It has blamed the drop on a fall in the revaluation gain of its assets, according to the Daily Nation newspaper. Its revenue rose by 5.4% to US$87m but this was adversely affected by rising cost of sales. The cement producer asked for regulatory approval to publish its financial results after a 31 October 2016 deadline.
