[Brokerage Focus] CITIC SEC indicates that the domestic Business in the Cement Industry is under pressure, while the overseas Business has become a key support for performance growth.
Jinwu Financial News | CITIC SEC stated that according to Cement Network, in 2024, China's cement production capacity will reach approximately 2.561 billion tons, while the output will only be 1.825 billion tons, marking a new low since 2010, with a capacity utilization rate of only 71.24%. The bank indicated that the domestic Cement Industry is facing the challenge of weak downstream demand, with increasingly fierce market competition and corresponding continuous decline in cement prices. Many cement enterprises are focusing their attention overseas, with Southeast Asia and Africa being popular destinations for these companies. The demand in Africa has significant growth potential, and the number of participants is relatively small, as well as higher global cement prices; Southeast Asia is the largest sea.
CITIC SEC: It is the right time for Cement to go global, and domestic companies are expected to increase market share due to strong cost advantages.
