Saint-Gobain’s sales and earnings recover so far in 2021

30 July 2021

France: Saint-Gobain’s sales grew by 24.6% year-on-year to Euro22.1bn in the first half of 2021 from Euro17.8m in the same period in 2020. Earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) nearly doubled to Euro3.25bn from Euro1.64bn. Both sales and earnings were also higher than the comparable period in 2019.

“These first-half 2021 record results surpass even our second-half 2020 performance. This success reflects the profound positive changes in our organisation from Transform & Grow,” said Benoit Bazin, chief executive officer of Saint-Gobain. “It also reflects structural changes in our markets, which should show an acceleration in growth over the coming years.” The group added that it was planning to catch up with previously delayed expansion projects for the construction Industry and in façade and gypsum solutions in Mexico, India and China in the second half of 2021.

30 July 2021

US: Eagle Materials’ gypsum wallboard sales grew by 28% year-on-year to US$166m in the first quarter of its financial year to 30 June 2021 from US$130m in the same period in 2020. Wallboard sales volumes rose by 8% to 70.9Mm2 from 65.4Mm2. Wallboard earnings increased by 53% to US$63.3m from US$41.3m. The building materials producer attributed its increased revenue to higher sales and prices.

“These results reflect strong market demand in both of our major business lines and exceptional operational execution by our team. Our wallboard business continues to benefit from robust residential construction activity across our markets,” said president and chief executive officer Michael Haack.
