Holcim Argentina has reported a net loss of ARS18,861m (US$18.9m) for the nine months ended 30 September 2025, according to its latest consolidated financial statements. The result marks a sharp reversal from the ARS34,593m profit posted in the same period of 2024. The company’s accumulated sales reached ARS345,005m, down from ARS363,436m in the 9M25. In the third quarter alone, sales dropped to ARS125,548m from ARS132,936m in the 3Q24. Net loss in the 3Q25 was ARS20,437m, down from a net profit of ARS6747m in the 3Q24.

Holcim Argentina said 3Q25 took place in “an environment of moderate macroeconomic stability” and that while construction activity showed signs of improvement, the overall sector remained subdued due to the government’s fiscal adjustment measures.

According to ISAC data, construction activity increased by 0.4 per cent YoY in August and by eight per cent in the year to date. Private cement demand rose 12.4 per cent in the quarter, reflecting “an environment of moderate reactivation, although still conditioned by the financial cost and the low execution of public works.”
