US: The US-based building materials provider Eagle Materials has reported financial results for the third quarter of the 2013 fiscal year, which ended on 31 December 2012. These showed that its revenue was up by 33% compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. Earnings per share were up by 429% year-on-year.

Eagle's third quarter sales volumes improved across all business lines, with sales prices improving in all but one of it business lines. Its gypsum wallboard segment experienced the most significant improvement, with an increase in average net sales prices of 27% as compared with the same quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Eagle's Gypsum Wallboard and Paperboard division's third quarter operating earnings of US$24.8m were up by 362% compared to the same quarter of the 2012 fiscal year. Higher wallboard average net sales prices, higher gypsum wallboard and gypsum paperboard sales volumes and lower recycled paper input costs were the primary driver of the quarterly earnings increase.

Gypsum wallboard and paperboard revenues for the third quarter were US$100.3m, a 37% increase from the same quarter a year ago. The revenue increase reflects primarily higher wallboard average net sales prices and sales volumes. The average gypsum wallboard net sales price for the third quarter was US$120.55/1000ft2, 27% greater than the same quarter a year ago. Wallboard sales volume for the quarter of 519Mft2 represents a 23% year-on-year.
