In the first nine months of the 2022 financial year, fuel and electricity costs rose by 31 per cent, raw materials costs by 12 per cent and logistics costs by 5 per cent. This offset a 5 per cent net sales rise resulting in an operating profit before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (OPBITDA) per tonne of cement of $14.70, down by 10 per cent year-on-year.
