Heidelberg Materials

The company attributes the revenue decline in part to the expiry of an Italian subsidy program, confirmed its full-year guidance and expects a noticeable margin improvement later in the year. The share fell 4.42% to $1.34, trading near its 52-week low; free cash flow remained negative. Strategically, Heidelberg is pursuing portfolio adjustments and diversification, for example through the acquisition of Manroland, partnerships such as PHENOGY and expansion into energy storage and defense-related activities. » More on de.investing.com
