This first Capital Markets Day marks an important step in our journey — from a blank sheet of paper in 2016 to a cash-generative, resilient Group with a clear model for growth.

The day is about looking ahead. We’ll explore the fundamentals of our business — lime and minerals - and the strength of the markets we serve. We’ll explain how our cash flows are stable and predictable, and how our operating model enables growth without compromising discipline.

Most importantly, we’ll show how that cash is used — to reinvest, to acquire, to de-gear, and to return value to shareholders. It’s a forward-looking view of what we’ve built and where we’re heading. I hope you’ll join us.
