what happened
Swiss building materials maker Holcim raised its full-year 2026 guidance for organic growth in recurring EBIT to a range of 10%-12%. According to Reuters, nine-month net sales rose 5.2% organically, while the recurring EBIT margin reached 19.2%.
Third-quarter net sales hit CHF 4.66 billion, up 15.5% in Swiss francs. Quarterly recurring EBIT came in at CHF 976 million, with an EBIT margin of 20.9%. The company kept its free cash flow guidance of around CHF 2 billion for 2026.
Holcim also expects net sales and recurring EBIT growth to land at the high end of its NextGen Growth 2030 targets.
why it matters
For markets, this signals resilience in the construction materials sector: the company is raising its outlook and confirming its planned cash flow. Profit growth running ahead of sales growth matters for investors in European cement and concrete producers.
