Tokyo Cement navigates competitive headwinds to post strong FY24/25 earnings



Tokyo Cement Group (Tokyo Cement) reported a turnover of Rs. 12,960 million and a Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs. 664 million for the 4th Quarter ending 31st March 2025, compared to a turnover of Rs. Rs. 13,145 million and a PAT of Rs. 722 million, in the same period last year. The diminished earnings can be attributed to price reductions as volumes grew by 13% in the quarter.

For the Financial Year ending 31st March 2025, the Group reported a turnover of Rs. 50,096 million compared to Rs. 49,824 million, and a PAT of Rs. 3,459 million against Rs. 2,422 million, respectively, over the previous year. Despite a 15% year-on-year increase in sales volume, turnover grew by only 1% due to widespread price reductions across the industry aimed at defending market share in a highly competitive environment. The 43% rise in PAT reflects the lower margin base of the prior year, further supported by strategic cost savings from optimized sourcing, currency appreciation, lower freight rates, and downward trending finance costs.





The economy continued its positive trajectory this quarter, with key indicators pointing towards a more resilient recovery. Residential and commercial sectors drove an increase in demand for construction related credit facilities, encouraged by declining interest rates and material costs due to stable forex and freight rates. These are promising indicators of a favorable predevelopment environment conducive to long-term growth in the construction sector. Consequently, the Purchasing Managers’ Index for the Construction Industry reflected this positive momentum during the quarter, boosted by an increase in both new orders and quantity of purchases. However, large-scale development projects are yet to be initiated as the government continues to seek out financing and bilateral partnerships for infrastructure investments.

The cement industry recorded a year-on-year demand increase from 3.96 Mn MT to 4.71 Mn MT, partly owing to latent demand and the low base effect of the previous year. Market dynamics shifted with the entry of a new local grinding operator and multiple cement importers capitalising on relaxed import restrictions, intensifying competition in an already saturated market. On a positive note, a bigger portion of the demand was met through locally manufactured cement, reinforcing the industry’s self-sufficiency and promoting local value creation.





The industry remains optimistic about a demand resurgence, driven by the restart of new and previously stalled construction projects led by private sector investors and developers. This is expected to be further supplemented by state-led infrastructure initiatives, supported by active fund disbursements from international development agencies and bilateral partnerships with countries such as India, Japan, and China.

Nevertheless, heightened volatility in global trade policies and ongoing regional conflicts pose downside risks that add to the uncertainty and may jeopardise some of the hard-fought economic gains the country is working towards. While the immediate impact may be contained within the sectors that are directly exposed to such trade barriers, broader effects from global price increases could lead to demand contractions across key markets. Additionally, escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, Europe, and South Asia threaten to disrupt energy prices, trade flows, tourism, freight, foreign exchange markets, and overall investor sentiment. These factors may constrain capital inflows, dampen export prospects, and impede economic recovery.

Whilst maintaining its conservative outlook for the short to medium term, Tokyo Cement remains optimistic of the country’s economic fundamentals and stands ready to maximise any growth opportunities they present for the industry. The Group will maintain the stringent cost control measures already in place to protect the interests of its stakeholders. The Tokyo Cement Group remains agile to the changes in the business environment and stands ready to be an active participant in the country’s efforts to reignite the economy.

In addition, the FOG Cricket Academy is represented in the Sri Lanka Men’s National Team by top-notch players such as Navod Paranavithana, Malsha Tharupathi, Haren Weerasinghe, S. Mathushan and many more. Star-class international players such as Vijayakanth Viyaskanth and the Captain of the Sri Lanka National Hearing-impaired Cricket Team Gimadu Malcolm are also among the distinguished talent unearthed through the Tokyo Cement-Foundation of Goodness Cricket Coaching Academy. With the renewed partnership, it is poised to create more opportunities for talented young cricketers from remote areas to achieve their dreams of a successful sports career and bring fame to our motherland.

Tokyo Cement Group recently had the honor of reaffirming its Sustainable Leadership status in the Construction Industry by winning two prestigious awards at the Annual Green and Sustainability Awards 2024.

The company’s revolutionary new product, TOKYO SUPERSET Multi-Purpose Mortar, received the Gold Award, whilst its innovative solution, Pervious Concrete from Tokyo Supermix (Pvt) Limited; the Group’s Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC) business unit, secured the Silver Award in Sustainable Products and Systems category at the awards ceremony organized by the Ceylon Institute of Builders (CIOB).

TOKYO SUPERSET Multi-Purpose Mortar won Gold in the Sustainable Products and Systems Category at CIOB Annual Green Awards 2024

The 12th World Construction Symposium and Green and Sustainability Awards Night hosted by CIOB and the University of Moratuwa, offered a unique platform to share knowledge and insights on promoting sustainable built environments. It was followed by the Annual Green Awards ceremony, which recognizes outstanding sustainability efforts in the Sri Lankan construction industry, with the aim of promoting sustainable practices, foster innovation and inspire others.

Pervious Concrete by TOKYO SUPERMIX won Silver in the Sustainable Products and Systems Category at CIOB Annual Green Awards 2024

These two ground-breaking and revolutionary products winning the topmost accreditation at the Annual Green Awards stands proof of Tokyo Cement’s continuous commitment to environmental sustainability. Over the years the Tokyo Cement Group, being Sri Lanka’s largest manufacturer of cement, concrete, and cement-based value-added products, has received multiple accolades in recognition of its standard-setting sustainability practices that have transformed the local construction industry.

The TOKYO SUPERSET Multi-Purpose Mortar that was decorated in Gold at the Annual Green Awards 2024 is a revolutionary cement mortar application, which was introduced as an environmental-friendly and highly efficient solution for brick/block laying, internal and external plastering, and floor rendering. It is a pre-blended, ready-to-use solution that only requires the addition of water to apply, as opposed to the troublesome traditional method of preparing cement mortar. In addition to significantly reducing wastage compared to traditional mortar preparation, the Carbon Footprint of TOKYO SUPERSET Multi-Purpose Mortar is reduced further due to its special formula that uses non-toxic organic additives, graded manufactured sand and blended hydraulic cement, which also has a lower carbon footprint compared to that of Ordinary Portland Cement. The reduction in labor costs and time is further enhanced by improved coverage, spreadability, workability, and thin coat application features of the TOKYO SUPERSET Multi-Purpose Mortar, which collectively enhances application efficiency.

Pervious Concrete by Tokyo Supermix won the Silver Award in recognition of its unique mix design that allows water to infiltrate through its surface onto the underlying soil. This product contributes significantly to enhance the environmental sustainability of built environments by supporting natural hydrology and groundwater recharge networks, thus reducing the strain on stormwater drainage systems. Furthermore, the composition of pervious concrete can be adjusted to achieve the right level of porosity and water permeability to suit different site conditions and help eliminate water accumulation on outdoor surfaces such as driveways, sidewalks, courtyards, parking lots and even green roofs of eco-friendly building designs. The rise in demand for well-designed urban residential communities is rising nationwide, necessitating thoughtful micro-level town planning and eco-friendly design practices. As such, Pervious Concrete offers a versatile solution for sustainable water management and environmental stewardship, enhancing both the functionality and value of these developments.

Furthermore, Tokyo Cement Group’s unwavering commitment to promote sustainable construction practices is firmly attested through its distinguished product brand TOKYO SUPER Cement that has gained prestigious accreditations of Green Mark® (Singapore) Certification from the CIOB, and the GREENSL® Labelling System Certification from the Green Building Council of Sri Lanka (GBCSL), making it the Greenest Cement in the market.

Tokyo Cement has earned the reputation as the most trusted supplier of high-quality cement, concrete and cement-based innovative products in Sri Lanka, that have uplifted the local Construction Industry to global standards. By successfully integrating social welfare and environmental conservation into its mission to enrich the country, its people and the environment, Tokyo Cement Group has reaffirmed its position as the leading partner in Nation-building.

Cricket in Sri Lanka is a unique phenomenon that binds our nation together in positivity and pride. The game continues to tear down barriers to bring almost every citizen to the streets, cheering, dancing and pulsating to a uniquely Sri Lankan rhythm united under one flag, one team. Right now, the entire nation yearns for that excitement of seeing our flag fly high once again. It goes without saying that in order to reclaim our victorious spot on the cricket world map, we must keep unearthing new talent and give them opportunities to sharpen their skills. In 2014, Tokyo Cement Group and the Foundation of Goodness set off on a mission to discover young cricketing talent from across the country. Together they organize monthly Cricket Coaching Camps where youngsters are given the chance to polish up their raw talent under the guidance of the best coaches and cricket experts. The objective is to give budding school cricketers from remote backgrounds the opportunity to realize their dreams of a successful sporting career. The initiative takes place at the Foundation of Goodness’ world-class practice facilities in Seenigama and Hikkaduwa, where monthly Cricket Coaching Camps are conducted. The sessions are led by the celebrated coaching staff of renowned cricket coach Mr. Hemantha Devapriya, for schoolgirls and boys aged between 13 to 19 years. The success of the Southern cricket camps prompted Tokyo Cement to extend the program to the Northern areas in 2017, in search of future cricketing sensations. The program enrolls many young cricketers from areas such as Jaffna, Killinochchi, Oddusudan, Mankulam, Mullaitivu, Vavuniya and Mannar. Mr. Anura De Silva, Sports Director of the Foundation of Goodness, heads the project which aims to take 50 Northern youth under its wings to train them to become sparkling cricket stars who bring glory to our motherland. Upon witnessing the richness of talent in the North, Mr. De Silva comments, “Right throughout history, Sri Lankan cricket got enriched thanks to players from different parts of the country who infused their unique styles to the game. There is tremendous talent yet to be discovered in our rural areas. Our aim is to uncover these gems that can enhance our cricket legacy in the future”. The showcase of talent in the North has so far surpassed all expectations, igniting our hopes for another Sri Lankan cricketing spring in the near future. Tokyo Cement Group is an avid supporter of cricket on the frontline to uplift the game. The Company firmly believes in the game’s ability to build bridges across geographic and social boundaries characterizing true cricketing spirit. The coaching camps conducted by the Foundation of Goodness under the patronage of Tokyo Cement have so far trained over 1,000 girl and boy school cricketers, producing many National-level players who represent Sri Lanka in the World Cricket Arena. By providing youth from every part of the country an opportunity to unite in cricket, the company is laying the foundation of brotherhood, understanding and respect, that contributes to Nation-building which remains Tokyo Cement’s vision as the leader in the local construction industry.

Tokyo Cement Group expands “Nourishing the Future” School Nutrition Program

Tokyo Cement Group recently extended its “Nourishing the Future” school nutrition program by adding 179 students from four schools in Siyambalanduwa in the Monaragala District. The initiative includes primary grade students of Wattegama Sirimal Kanista Vidyalaya in Kotiyagala, Bambaragasroda Kanista Vidyalaya in Siyambalanduwa, and Barawaya Primary School and Danakiriya Kanista Vidyalaya in Kandaudapanguwa, who now …

Tokyo Cement Group recently extended its “Nourishing the Future” school nutrition program by adding 179 students from four schools in Siyambalanduwa in the Monaragala District. The initiative includes primary grade students of Wattegama Sirimal Kanista Vidyalaya in Kotiyagala, Bambaragasroda Kanista Vidyalaya in Siyambalanduwa, and Barawaya Primary School and Danakiriya Kanista Vidyalaya in Kandaudapanguwa, who now receive a balanced mid-day meal on all five days of the week through this scheme.

Tokyo Cement was silently operating this benevolent social upliftment program for several years in the past, where they provided mid-day meals to over 300 students of Thiriyaya Maha Vidyalaya in Trincomalee. With the addition of Monaragala schools, Tokyo Cement Group’s “Nourishing the Future” mid-day meal program now touches the lives of over 475 schoolchildren hailing from backgrounds of reduced circumstances.

Mr. Praveen Gnanam, Director Innovations, Tokyo Cement Group, commenting on the expansion of this far-reaching initiative said, “The purpose of this program is to address the childhood malnutrition epidemic that has grown exponentially over the course of this year. Left unchecked, malnutrition has the potential to cause both mental and physiological developmental diseases for future generations. Furthermore, parents are more likely to send their children to school if they are fed, thereby increasing access to education for those most impacted by the economic crisis.”



179 students in 4 schools in Moneragala receive a balanced mid-day meal through Tokyo Cement Group’s “Nourishing the Future” school nutrition program

The daily meal plans follow the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Education, to ensure all main food groups consisting of greens, pulses, a fresh dairy product and a locally sourced fruit is included therein, to supplement their diet and fulfil the children’s nutritional growth needs. To ensure the students receive a wholesome lunch on a consistent basis and the children’s growth milestones are achieved progressively, Tokyo Cement has implemented a comprehensive monitoring process with help from each schools’ administration, parent groups, Zonal Director of the Ministry of Education and local health officers attached to the Ministry of Health.



The daily meal-plans include all main food groups to fulfil the children’s nutritional growth needs

The Zonal Educational Director played a key role in coordinating the program between the schools’ authorities and Tokyo Cement. On ground, the program is executed under the supervision of the principal and teachers in each school, whilst voluntary teams of parents help prepare the meals. Tokyo Cement has also stepped up the program by supplying the basic utensils and amenities required, to standardize each school kitchen to operate under optimal hygienic conditions during food preparation. The local Public Health Inspectors supervise the program by visiting the schools on a regular basis to ensure the meals are prepared adhering to strict health guidelines.

Meals are prepared by voluntary teams of parents under strict hygienic conditions supervised by local health authorities and the principal and teachers in each school

This compassionate endeavour was started by Tokyo Cement Group’s Founder Chairman, Deshamanya A.Y.S. Gnanam, who during his time saw the importance of providing a healthy meal to schoolchildren from low-income families to encourage school attendance as a much-needed boost to complete their primary education. Tokyo Cement Group’s decision to expand the program comes at a time when several international agencies such as UNICEF and the WB have flagged the rising rates of malnutrition and growth deficiencies among children in all parts of Sri Lanka, especially in low-income segments, due to the rapid rise of food inflation. The Nourishing the Future school nutrition program addresses this issue with a tangible solution that lifts a huge burden off the parents, who are on a daily struggle to provide a square meal for their children amidst dire economic conditions.

The program is among the many social empowerment projects deployed by the Company with a profound impact on the lives of the people of our country. Tokyo Cement Group’s commitment to social responsibility breathes life through initiatives such as this, by which they have successfully integrated social welfare and environmental conservation into its corporate DNA, as part of the vision to become the leading partner in Nation-building.
