MONTERREY, Mexico--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- #cemex--A consortium comprised of Cemex and Linde, a leading global industrial gases and engineering company, has been selected to receive €157 million in funding from the EU Innovation Fund for a pioneering CO2 capture project at Cemex's Rüdersdorf Cement Plant in Germany. The project, Cemex's largest planned Carbon Capture Use and Storage (CCUS) project to date, aims to capture 1.3 million metric tons of CO2 per year from Rüdersdorf's cement production, ultimately.
CEMEX's Mexican segment shows steady growth, offsetting weaknesses in Europe and the Middle East, leading to flat to slightly positive growth in 2024. Strong pricing and decelerating cost inflation are expected to support margins, with volume growth in the U.S. and Mexico driving top line growth. Despite recent stock decline due to FX headwinds, the stock is attractively priced with promising long-term prospects from onshoring and federal funding.
CEMEX faced weather-related headwinds in key US and Mexico markets, causing significant volume drops, especially in the ready-mix category with a 9% decline. Despite significant weather-related and macroeconomic headwinds, CEMEX maintained positive growth through strategic pricing, strong execution, and efficient cost management, showing resilience amid industry challenges. CEMEX's stock appears undervalued compared to peers, with lower price multiples despite steady performance, creating a strong buy opportunity.
CX's recent acquisition is likely to support the ongoing efforts to grow its circularity business and recover nearly 14 million tons of CDEM annually by 2030.
When markets start to get choppy, investors typically look for the most affordable stocks that promise some upside potential for the coming quarters. After the S&P 500 had a small version of a “flash crash” triggered by the unwind of the so-called “carry trade” between the Japanese yen and U.S. dollar, a quick recovery signaled markets that things might be better than they seem.

Cemex stock has underperformed peers, in large part due to bearish sentiment on Mexico after the recent presidential election. Demand and margins have stayed healthy in Mexico, and Q2 should see double-digit growth again, but guidance for the second half is a big watch item. U.S. results have been less impressive, with Cemex seeing headwinds from weather, weaker residential and non-residential demand, and higher transportation costs, but the longer-term supply/demand outlook is favorable.
