CRH plc has released its 2024 Full Year Results, reporting a revenue of $8.87 billion, which represents a 2.13% year-over-year increase, though it fell short of expectations by $140 million. The adjusted earnings per share (EPS) stood at $1.45, reflecting an 11.54% year-over-year growth and aligning with analyst estimates. The company has also announced a continuation of its share buyback program and highlighted a record 11th year of margin expansion, returning $3 billion to shareholders. CRH's strong performance is attributed to the ongoing infrastructure boom in the U.S., fueled by substantial government funding that has increased demand for its construction materials. The company reported a 12% rise in EBITDA and maintains a positive outlook for future growth.
