Holcim ( (CH:HOLN) ) has shared an announcement.

Holcim has completed the acquisition of a majority stake in Cementos Pacasmayo, a leading Peruvian producer of cement and concrete that generated 2025 net sales of USD 630 million and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 28%. The deal strengthens Holcim’s footprint in Peru with a complementary range of building materials and solutions and aligns with its NextGen Growth 2030 strategy to accelerate expansion in Latin America.

Cementos Pacasmayo brings three cement plants with about 5 million tons of annual capacity, 28 ready-mix and precast facilities, and a network of more than 300 retail outlets that dovetail with Holcim’s Disensa franchise model. Valued at an implied 7.1x 2025 EBITDA after projected synergies, the transaction is positioned as immediately accretive to earnings per share and free cash flow, and Holcim plans a mandatory tender offer for additional shares under Peruvian law.
