The Board considers that such increase in the results of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2018 is mainly due to :
(1) by benefiting from positive effect on the implementation of the country’s strategic plan of “Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Synergistic Development” and the “Supply Side Structural Reform” of the cement industry, the cement market order of the Company’s core areas has improved continuously. Although the sales volume of cement and clinker has decreased when compared with the same period of last year, the prices for cement and clinker have recorded an increase when compared with the same period of last year. Thus, leading to an increase in profit for the cement companies year-on-year; and
(2) although there was a slight decrease in the booked gross floor area in the first half of 2018, the relatively large increase in booked unit price has led to an increase in profit for the property development companies year-on-year.
The Group recorded net profit attributable to shareholders of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2017 of approximately RMB1,846,371,200, with basic earnings per share of RMB0.17.
During the six months ended 30 June 2018, the Group has recorded (i) consolidated sales volume of cement and clinker of 39.60 million tonnes (in accordance with the scope of accounting reporting), representing a decrease of 6.24% from the same period of last year of 42.23 million tonnes; (ii) sales volume of concrete of 6.27 million cubic meters, representing a decrease of 4.42% from the same period of last year of 6.56 million cubic meters; and (iii) booked gross floor area of 401.0 thousand sq.m. from property development, representing a slight decrease from the same period of last year of 407.0 thousand sq.m.
The information in this announcement is based on the Company’s preliminary estimations. Detailed financial information of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2018 will be announced in August 2018, which shall prevail over the information contained herein.
Shareholders of the Company and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the shares of the Company.
