Brickworks Ltd Faces AUD 55 Million Impairment in North America Amid Market Challenges

Brickworks Ltd ( (AU:BKW) ) has shared an update.

Brickworks Ltd has announced a post-tax non-cash impairment charge of approximately AUD 55 million for its North American operations due to declining market conditions, reduced demand, and competitive pressures. This has led to plant shutdowns, reduced efficiency, and a significant decline in EBITDA margin. Despite these challenges, Brickworks’ Property EBITDA is expected to be higher due to stable capitalisation rates, while Building Products Australia maintains steady performance. However, Building Products North America’s EBITDA will be significantly lower, impacted by extreme weather and market conditions.
