Taiheiyo Cement’s U.S. Subsidiary to Return to Black

According to Nikkei Asian Review, after five years of red ink in its U.S. business, Taiheiyo Cement expects to return the segment to profitability in the fiscal year that ends March 2015. Taiheiyo Cement President Shuji Fukuda noted that this would help prop up the group as demand related to reconstruction in Japan from the 2011 earthquake and tsunami diminishes.
