CAIRO – 27 May 2018: National Cement Company recorded a net loss of LE 744 million before taxes during the first nine months of fiscal year 2017/2018, compared to a loss of LE 615.6 million during the same period of 2016/2017.

The company’s financial indicators showed a total loss of LE 486.1 million during the same period of the current fiscal year, compared to LE 422.9 million in the nine months of the previous year.
