Loma Negra, a leader in Argentina's cement industry, maintains a solid financial structure with low debt and stable margins despite macroeconomic challenges in 2024. The Argentine economy is projected to grow in 2025, driven by private construction, positioning Loma Negra as an attractive medium- to long-term investment. Although 2024 was difficult, Loma Negra's fundamentals remain strong, with a significant market share and efficient vertical integration in cement and concrete production.
Loma Negra Compañía Industrial Argentina Sociedad Anónima's Q4 results highlight a 15% YOY decline in cement volumes, reflecting Argentina's severe recession and weak construction sector. Despite flat adjusted EBITDA from aggressive pricing, the business remains fragile with no concrete recovery signs, making the stock unattractive at over 50x earnings.
