US: Eagle Materials has reported a revenue of US$124m for the third quarter of its 2012 fiscal year which ended on 31 December 2011. This represents a 19% rise compared to the same period of the fiscal 2011 year. However, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) fell to US$ 6.89m, a fall of 40% from the same period in 2011.

In its third quarter report Eagle Materials singled out its low-cost operations for performing well during the challenging environment for US construction activity. Gross profit was reported as US$12m, a rise of 59% compared to the same period in 2011. Segment operating earnings increased by 30% reflecting improved sales volumes in the company's wallboard, paperboard and cement businesses and higher wallboard and paperboard net sales prices as compared to the prior year.

For its Gypsum Wallboard and Paperboard sectors Eagle Materials reported third quarter operating earnings of US$5.4m compared to an operating loss of US$0.4m in the same quarter of 2011. Gypsum Wallboard and Paperboard revenues for the third quarter reached US$73.5m, a 24% increase from the same quarter of the 2011 fiscal year. Higher wallboard and paperboard net sales prices combined with improved paperboard sales volumes were the primary drivers of the quarterly earnings and revenues increase.
