Carib Cement reports improved performance for first half of 2026

 
Caribbean Cement Company is reporting a sharp improvement in its financial performance for the first six months of 2026, driven by stronger operating efficiency, disciplined cost management and continued demand for its products.
 
Revenue strengthened, driving gross profit to $9.31 billion - up 74.7 per cent over the previous year. 
 
Caribbean Cement says the improved performance reflects a more favourable production environment compared with 2025, when a planned maintenance shutdown resulted in approximately $920 million in additional costs and required the importation of cement to maintain supplies.
 
Cash holdings climbed to $18.55 billion, reflecting a strong liquidity position.
 
Caribbean Cement also achieved a record second-quarter sales volume of 110,647 metric tonnes.
 
The company says it remains confident about its outlook, noting that inventories have been built up ahead of its planned maintenance shutdown to ensure uninterrupted supplies to the market.
