Stable cement price, good cost control, and a better base for comparison will lift Anhui Conch Cement (914 HK)'s profitability recovery in 2-4Q24.  

Anhui Conch's earnings outperformed in 1Q24. Its peers are making losses and hence will reduce excess supply. Stabilisation of the real estate market will lower the pressure on demand.
