Comments about Union Cement Company Q3 2007 results

As with the accounts for the first nine months of 2007, Union Cement is having the same difficulties as other cement companies in the UAE despite raging demand for cement product. Rising costs, and poor performance with their stock portfolio meant final profits were down. New plant came online in the third quarter according to the management report but didn't seem to help earnings much.

Calculations used on Profit & Loss statement

  • Other Income = Other Income + Income from Investment in Shares
  • 2007Q3 = 1087000 + 3480000 = 4567000 dhs
  • 2006Q3 = 3509000 + 98129000 = 101638000 dhs

Other notes

  • Number of shares increased from 504,000,000 to 554,400,000 after 10% bonus shares added.
