Five-Year Company Overview

Income Statement

Income Statement Revenue has grown strongly over the five‑year period with a clear step‑up in recent years, after some softness in the mid‑period. Profitability has improved even more than sales: operating and EBITDA margins have been trending higher, showing better cost control and operational efficiency. The very sharp jump in reported net income in the latest year likely reflects not only stronger operations but also accounting effects and possibly non‑recurring items, so it should be viewed with some caution. Overall, the core business looks solid and more profitable, but headline earnings are more volatile than the underlying operating picture suggests.


Balance Sheet

Balance Sheet The balance sheet has expanded significantly, reflecting heavy investment and asset growth. Equity has increased materially, which strengthens the company’s capital base and provides a buffer against shocks. Debt has risen, but it still looks moderate relative to total assets and equity, suggesting leverage is present but not excessive. Cash on hand remains quite low, which can leave the company more exposed to short‑term liquidity pressures and reinforces the importance of continued strong cash generation and access to funding.


Cash Flow

Cash Flow Operating cash flow has been consistently positive and fairly stable, indicating that the core cement and materials operations generate reliable cash. Free cash flow has also been positive each year and has improved over time, even while the company has continued to spend meaningfully on new plants and equipment. The latest year shows especially heavy investment, which temporarily reduces free cash flow but supports future capacity and efficiency. Overall, the cash profile reflects a business that largely funds its growth from its own operations rather than relying heavily on new borrowing.


Competitive Edge

Competitive Edge Loma Negra holds a leading position in Argentina’s cement market, supported by strong brands, long operating history, and a broad footprint of plants and distribution points. Its control of key limestone reserves and the ownership of a dedicated railway network give it important cost and logistical advantages that are difficult for rivals to match. The company’s vertical integration and nationwide distribution help it serve customers reliably and at scale. At the same time, it remains exposed to Argentina’s economic cycles, construction activity, and regulatory changes, which can materially influence demand and pricing power.


Innovation and R&D

Innovation and R&D Innovation is focused more on process and product improvement than on traditional lab‑style R&D. The company is investing in modern, efficient production lines, alternative fuels, and emissions reduction, which can both lower costs and support its environmental positioning. Digital tools like its customer portal aim to deepen relationships and streamline ordering and logistics. On the product side, specialized cements and concretes and technical advisory services offer higher value solutions rather than just commodity cement. Future efforts appear geared toward more sustainable, lower‑carbon products and further digital integration across the construction value chain.


Summary

Loma Negra combines a strong domestic market position with improving profitability and solid cash generation. It has been investing heavily in modern plants, logistics, and sustainability initiatives, which reinforces its cost and service advantages. The balance sheet shows growth and manageable leverage, but limited cash balances underscore reliance on steady cash flow and functioning capital markets. Earnings can swing sharply due to macro conditions and accounting effects, even when operations are relatively stable. The key themes are a dominant local player, disciplined investment in efficiency and sustainability, and ongoing exposure to Argentina’s economic and construction cycles.
