Japan: Sumitomo Osaka Cement’s net sales rose by 4.6% year-on-year to US$2.24bn in the financial year that ended on 31 March 2018 from US$2.14bn in the same period of the previous year. It attributed the increase to higher sales volumes of cement. However, its operating income fell by 15.6% to US$92m from US$113 due to higher coal prices. The company said that overall local demand in the country rose by 0.2% to 42Mt during the reporting period. Exports rose by 2.4% to 11.8Mt.
