On July 27th 2018, the Board of Directors of Vassiliko Cement Works Public Company Ltd approved the financial results of the Group for the first half of the year that ended 30 June 2018.
Revenues for the first half of 2018 reached €49.603.000, compared to €52.812.000 for the respective period of 2017. Revenues were negatively affected by a drop in income from exports, as well as price decreases effective throughout the first half of 2018 for the domestic market. This is despite the increase of demand in the domestic market, which has grown steadily for a third consecutive year.
On the production front, there was a negative impact from fuel and electricity costs, negatively affecting the operating margins as compared to the previous year. The impact of the rising cost of traditional fuels was mitigated to some extend with the use of alternative non-fossil fuels.
The profits for the first half of 2018 were positively affected from financial income that relates to realised exchange differences of €440.000.
As a result, the profit for the period reached $\epsilon$ 8.902.000 compared to $\epsilon$ 11.777.000 for the same period of 2017.
Second half revenues are expected to remain at similar level, fuel prices remain high, while there is an increasing trend in the cost of electricity, both due to the high fuels costs, as well as to the peak-season tariff between June to September. Another important factor affecting performance this year is the rising cost of CO2 emission rights.

The uncertain economic conditions, the limited availability of financing for individuals and businesses by the banking system in general, energy prices and exchange rates, could affect:
(3) the cash flow forecasts of the Group and the assessment of impairment of other financial and non financial assets.

Considering the above uncertainties the Group's Management is taking measures to limit exposure to certain risks and mitigate any possible negative consequences.
Other risks and uncertainties faced by the Group are detailed on note 36 of the Annual Report and Financial Statements for 2017.
