On June 8, China National Building Material declined 5.17% in regular trading, trading at approximately 4.64 HKD/share, with trading volume of approximately 65.10 million HKD, extending its recent downtrend.
On the news front, cement industry fundamentals remain under sustained pressure. Data shows that January-to-April national cumulative cement production fell 8.6% year-over-year, housing new starts declined 22% YoY, and real estate development investment dropped 13.7% YoY, reflecting persistently weakening demand. Among 19 listed cement companies in the sector, only 6 achieved profitability in Q1, with some industry leaders posting single-quarter losses exceeding RMB 1 billion. The company itself reported a full-year swing to a net loss of RMB 3.745 billion for the prior fiscal year, a 256.9% decline from the previous year's profit. Although companies have attempted to offset cost pressures through staggered production halts and price hikes, the sustainability of such measures remains in doubt amid weak demand.
China National Building Material is a construction materials company primarily engaged in the production and sale of cement, concrete, new materials, and engineering services, with operations mainly in the domestic market.
