Dangote Cement Plc ("the Company") was incorporated in Nigeria as a public limited liability company on 4 November 1992 and commenced operations in January 2007 under the name Obajana Cement Plc. The name was changed on 14 July 2010 to Dangote Cement Plc.
Its parent company is Dangote Industries Limited ("DIL" or "the Parent Company"). Its ultimate controlling party is Alhaji Aliko Dangote. The registered address of the Company is located at 1 Alfred Rewane Road, Ikoyi, Lagos, Nigeria.
The principal activity of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "the Group") is to operate plants for the preparation, manufacture, and
distribution of cement and related products. The Company's production activities are currently undertaken at Obajana town in Kogi State, Gboko in Benue State and Ibese in Ogun State; all in Nigeria. Information in respect of the subsidiaries locations is disclosed in note 15.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group for the period ended 31 March 2026 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries. The condensed separate interim financial statements of the Company for the period ended 31 March 2026 comprise the Company only.
Securities trading policy
The Board has established an Insider Trading Policy designed to prohibit dealing in Dangote Cement Plc. shares or securities on the basis of potentially price-sensitive information that is not yet in the public domain. This is in line with the Rules of the NGX, the Investment and Securities Act (ISA) 2007 and the SEC Rules and Regulations. Having enquired, we can confirm that all Directors complied with the Insider Trading Policy during the period under review.
Material accounting policies
The Group and Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee of the IASB (together "IFRS Standards") and requirements of the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA),2020 and the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) of Nigeria Act, 2011.
Dangote Cement Plc. Group has consistently applied the same accounting policies and methods of computation in its condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements as in its 2025 annual financial statements except for the application of new standards. None of the new standards, interpretations and amendments, effective for the first time from 1 January 2026, have had a material effect on the condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements.
Standards issued but not yet effective
A number of new standards are issued but not yet effective. Earlier application is permitted; however, the Group has not early adopted any of the forthcoming new or amended standards in preparing these condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements.
Basis of preparation
These condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements For the three months ended 31 March 2026 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and should be read in conjunction with the Group and Company's last annual consolidated and separate financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2025 ("last annual consolidated and separate financial statements"). They do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS Standards. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group and Company's financial position and performance since last annual consolidated and separate financial statements.
The condensed consolidated and separate interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for derivatives which are measured at fair value and balances of entities in hyper-inflation economies. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
Fair values
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability that market participants would take into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for leasing transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 16, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in IAS 2 or value in use in IAS 36. Derivatives are carried at fair value.
Basis of consolidation
The Group condensed interim financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries over whom it has control, made up to 31 March 2026. Control is achieved where the investor; (i) has power over the investee entity (ii) is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from the investee entity as a result of its involvement, and (iii) can exercise some power over the investee to affect its returns.
The Company reassesses whether or not it still controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group.
Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners' of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interest having a deficit balance.
In the Company's condensed separate interim financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less any impairment that has been recognised in profit or loss.

Segment Information
Products and services from which reportable segments derive their revenue
The Executive Management Committee is the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker. Management has determined operating segments based on the information reported and reviewed by the Executive Management Committee for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. The Executive Management Committee reviews internal management reports on at least a quarterly basis. These internal reports are prepared on the same basis as the accompanying consolidated and separate financial statements.
Segment information is presented in respect of the Group's reportable segments. For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units by geographical areas in which the Group operates. The Group has 2 reportable segments based on location of the principal operations as follows:
Nigeria (includes Company and all subsidiaries operating in Nigeria. See Note 15.1)
Pan Africa (includes entities operating outside Nigeria. See Note 15.1)
Segment revenues and results
Performance is measured based on segment sales revenue, Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) and profit from operating activities, as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Executive Management Committee. Segment sales revenue, EBITDA and profit from operating activities are used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries.

Income tax expense is recognised at an amount determined by multiplying the profit/loss before tax for the interim reporting period by management's best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full year, adjusted for the effect of certain items recognised in full in the interim period. As such, the effective tax rate in the Interim financial statements may differ from management's estimate of the effective tax rate for the annual financial statements.
