Also, we expect the SEE and East Mediterranean regions to post negative YoY growth owing to slower construction and unfavourable FX. However, Greece and WE is expe...
Bloomberg has reported that Titan Cement International has chosen Citi Bank and Goldman Sachs for the listing of a minority stake of Titan America. Previously, management indicated that between 15% to 25% would be listed on a NYC-based stock exchange.

The $2.0b valuation is ~24.0% higher than our current estimate of ~$1.6b (~€1.5b). The higher valuation could be due to the fact...

We think the credit rating upgrade couldn't have been better timed and will benefit the group in its ongoing US IPO filing of a minority stake of Titan A...
