BUA Cement Plc has posted a remarkable financial performance for the 2025 financial year, recording a profit after tax of N356.04 billion, according to confirmed reports.
Financial analysts say the figure represents a major leap from the N73.91 billion recorded in 2024, highlighting the company’s strong growth trajectory in Nigeria’s cement industry.
Data from the Nigerian Exchange Ltd also shows that BUA Cement’s profit before tax climbed sharply to N465.28 billion in 2025, up from N99.63 billion in the previous year.
The company’s operating profit also rose significantly, tripling to N504.55 billion in 2025 compared to N144.30 billion in 2024, despite rising operational costs.
According to the Nigerian Exchange report, the company’s revenue grew strongly within the review period, while production costs remained largely stable.
“This drove gross profit up to N604.18 billion from N300.27 billion.
Total assets rose to N1.811 trillion in 2025 from N1.570 trillion in 2024, reflecting an expansion in both non-current and current assets.
Non-current assets, however, declined slightly to N1.193 trillion from N1.196 trillion, while current assets increased to N618.43 billion from N374.44 billion”.
On the liabilities side, the report further stated:
“Total liabilities reduced to N1.030 trillion in 2025 from N1.182 trillion in 2024, largely due to a decline in non-current liabilities, which fell to N405.24 billion from N607.25 billion.
Current liabilities, however, increased to N624.26 billion from N574.55 billion.
Equity strengthened significantly, rising to N782.14 billion in 2025 from N388.55 billion in 2024, supported by a sharp increase in retained earnings to N571.55 billion from N175.70 billion”.
Industry observers note that the company’s improved financial position reflects stronger operational efficiency, better cost management, and a reduced debt burden.
Overall, analysts say BUA Cement’s 2025 performance signals improved earnings capacity and a more resilient balance sheet, positioning the company for sustained growth compared to its 2024 results.
