BUA Cement Share Price Rallies 51.3% in 2025

BUA Cement PLC has experienced a strong rally in its share price, closing at ₦270, which marks a 51.3% increase so far in 2025. This follows a remarkable turnaround from a 4.25% decline in 2024, where the share price had previously risen by 92%.

The company's valuation has expanded, with a trailing twelve-month earnings per share of ₦10.51, leading investors to pay 25.7 times earnings, compared to 19.17 times at the end of 2025. The rally is attributed to BUA Cement's strong financial growth, improved cost management, operational efficiency, and enhanced engagement across its supply chain.

The company has rewarded shareholders with higher dividends, and its shareholding structure, with major shareholders controlling 95% of the company, limits the free float to 2.32%. This small supply of tradable shares means that even moderate buying pressure can significantly impact the stock price.

Management expects revenue growth to continue into 2026, supported by price expansion, product capacity growth, and cost efficiency improvements.
