News Eagle Materials’ gypsum wallboard sales grow in first quarter

Eagle Materials’ gypsum wallboard sales grow in first quarter

US: Eagle Materials’ sales from its Light Materials division rose slightly to US$153m in the first quarter of its financial year to 30 June 2020. Gypsum wallboard sales revenue growth offset declines in paperboard sales. However, earnings fell by 8% to US$44m. Gypsum wallboard sales grew by 7% to 65Mm2. Overall, the group’s revenue and earnings rose.

“While we are very pleased with our first-quarter performance, we recognise a high level of uncertainty persists in our markets and the overall economy: despite the decline in jobless claims from the March peak, total unemployment remains historically high; state and local governments face ongoing revenue pressure, which could have the potential to constrain infrastructure budgets; and, in some geographic areas important to our business, Covid-19 case numbers continue to escalate,” said Michael Haack, president and chief executive officer (CEO).
The group announced plans in May 2019 to split its Heavy Materials and Light Materials divisions into two independent businesses. However, it says the timing remains ‘uncertain.’
