Profile and Background
Construction Materials Industries Company is engaged in the manufacture and supply of calcium silicate bricks, hydrated lime and related products. After a poor 1996, which ended in a net loss, the company posted a modest net profit in 1997.
Sales were up 22.4 per cent in the year. In 1998, increased general and administrative expenses led to a 66 per cent decline in net profits to RO 6,255 ($16,247). Sales income declined by 10 per cent.
There was a further deterioration in sales revenue in 1999 to under RO 1 million ($2.6 million). The negative trend threw the firm into a loss for the year. Paid-in capital was reduced by a half in 1997 to its present level to enable the company to reduce its accumulated losses.
The loss in 1999 was absorbed by reserves. The company's shares are rarely traded. The price of its shares was unchanged in 1999 and did not move in the first three months of 2000.
