Developments on Financials and Operations:

  • According to sectoral data released by TCMA, cement consumption in Türkiye increased by 9% y/y in 2024, and further rose by 15% y/y in January 2025. Meanwhile, based on data from the Central Anatolia Exporters Association, Türkiye's cement and clinker exports contracted by 3.4% y/y in 2024 but grew by 6.1% y/y in the first quarter of 2025.
  • Çimsa maintained high capacity utilization in 1Q25 and increased its consolidated sales volumes by 1.4% y/y organically, supported by 1% volume growth in Türkiye and 2% volume growth in international markets. Including Mannok's sales volumes, consolidated sales volumes were up by 15% y/y inorganically.
  • Consolidated net sales were up by 21% y/y in 1Q25 and reached to TRY8.9bn, thanks to organic volume growth and Mannok's contribution. The further growth of net sales was constrained by the fact that Turkish Lira depreciation remaining below the rate of inflation, thereby limiting the contribution from exports and international operations.
  • Çimsa achieved a consolidated EBITDA of TRY 1,094 million in the first quarter of 2025, representing a 37% y/y increase. Consequently, consolidated EBITDA margin expanded by 1.4 pp compared to the same period of the previous year, reaching 12.3%.
  • Despite having almost 90% higher debt stock in its balance sheet as of March, 2025 compared to a year ago, Çimsa have been able to maintain solid financial management and recorded only 14% y/y higher net financial expenses in 1Q25.
  • Çimsa reported a consolidated net profit of TRY 345 million in 1Q25. The 37% annual decline in net profit was primarily attributable to a negative impact of TRY 681 million resulting from the price movement of SAHOL shares. Adjusting for this impact in both 1Q24 and 1Q25 figures, net income increased by 411% y/y to TRY 1,027 million.
  • As of March 2025, consolidated net debt stood at TRY 17,244 million and the leverage ratio was 2.69x. The short-term bridge loan utilized for the acquisition of Mannok last year was restructured through project financing in February 2025, resulting in an extended debt maturity profile compared to the end of 2024.
