Jim Mintern, Chief Executive Officer, said:
"2024 was a strong year for CRH, driven by our customer-connected solutions strategy and leading positions of scale in attractive, higher-growth markets. We delivered another year of double-digit profit growth and an 11th consecutive year of margin expansion, reflecting a continued focus on commercial management and operational excellence across the organisation. The strength of our balance sheet enabled us to invest US$5 billion in 40 value-accretive acquisitions while also returning US$3 billion of cash to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks. The outlook for our business remains positive, underpinned by favourable demand and positive pricing momentum, leaving us well positioned for another year of growth and value creation ahead."
