Q: What is the current situation of cement shipments? What is the expected sales situation in the third quarter of this year?
Answer: Since the beginning of the traditional off-season in July, due to the high temperature, typhoon and continuous rainfall, the downstream construction progress has been generally hindered, and the demand side has remained weak. The company's cement sales volume is basically the same as the same period last year, and the sales volume has declined compared with June. July-August is the traditional typhoon rainy season in the south, the construction activities are slowing down, the current demand is weakening in stages, and the recent continuous rainfall in South China makes it impossible to judge the real demand. September will begin to enter the traditional sales season, and the sales situation in the third quarter also needs to pay attention to the demand replenishment after the weather improves.
