Activity in the 2nd quarter of 2016

HERIGE posted turnover of €155.0 million for the 2nd quarter of 2016, up 3.7% on the same period in 2015. In keeping with the 1st quarter, growth was driven by a dynamic activity of Building materials trading and a strong performance from Industrial joinery (+8.1% over the quarter) as the momentum that began in the second half of 2015 continued to gather pace.

Group turnover came in at €290.7 million for the 1st half of 2016 as a whole, up 4.8% at same scope, with the positive contributions from all three sectors bringing the first indications of new market share in a building sector which had yet to pick up again in full over the 1st quarter:

  • turnover for Building materials trading increased 4.1%,
  • turnover for the Concrete industry benefited from a slight increase in volumes for ready-mix concrete despite a persistently competitive market,
  • turnover for Industrial joinery increased by 11%, boosted by dynamic sales as well as energy efficiency rebates.

Outlook

The steady increase in individual housing sales over the past twelve months underpins HERIGE's forecasts of a gradual sector recovery.
