<p class="has-drop-cap">CRH plc’s (NYSE: CRH) <a aria-label="Q2 2024 results (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240807280377/en/CRH-Q2-2024-Results" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">Q2 2024 results</a> indicate a mixed performance with varied outcomes across different metrics. The company reported total revenues of $9.7 billion, which remained flat compared to the same quarter last year.</p>
<p>Despite this stagnation, CRH achieved an 8% increase in net income, reaching $1.3 billion, driven by strong operating performance and effective cost management. Adjusted EBITDA also saw a significant rise, increasing by 12% to $2.3 billion, reflecting the company’s ongoing efforts in operational efficiencies and cost control.</p>
<p>The net income margin improved by 110 basis points to 13.6%, while the adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 270 basis points to 23.4%. These improvements were attributed to the company’s integrated solutions strategy and positive pricing actions. <br><br>CRH’s <a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/how-to-value-a-stock/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">EPS</a> for the quarter was $1.89, a 16% increase from $1.63 in Q2 2023, showcasing the company’s ability to generate higher earnings per share through strategic initiatives and financial management.</p>
<h3 id="crh-beats-revenue-expectations-in-q2">CRH Beats Revenue Expectations in Q2</h3>
<p>When comparing CRH’s Q2 2024 performance to market expectations, the company exceeded the anticipated EPS of $1.80 by delivering an actual EPS of $1.89. <br><br>This 16% increase highlights CRH’s ability to surpass analyst predictions and deliver stronger-than-expected earnings. However, the company’s total revenues of $9.7 billion fell short of the expected $10.18 billion, indicating a 1% decline from the previous year and a miss on revenue projections.<br><br>The disparity between revenue expectations and actual performance can be attributed to several factors, including unfavorable weather conditions in certain regions and the impact of divestitures, such as the European Lime operations. <br><br>Despite these challenges, the company’s effective pricing strategies and contributions from acquisitions helped mitigate some of the revenue shortfalls. The overall positive performance in net income and EBITDA margins demonstrates CRH’s resilience and ability to manage costs effectively.</p>

<p>CRH has raised its full-year guidance for 2024, reflecting confidence in its financial performance and underlying business momentum. <br><br>The company now expects net income to range between $3.70 billion and $3.85 billion, up from the previous guidance of $3.55 billion to $3.80 billion. Adjusted EBITDA is also projected to be higher, with an updated range of $6.82 billion to $7.02 billion, compared to the earlier forecast of $6.55 billion to $6.85 billion.</p>
