Brazil: Votorantim’s cement division’s sales fell by 7% year-on-year to US$3.24bn in 2017 from US$3.48bn in 2016. Its adjusted earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) fell by 26% to US$515m from US$693m. The company blamed the continued decline on the poor market in Brazil.
