Mexican conglomerate Alfa (ALFAA.MX) raised its guidance for 2021 EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) on Wednesday, on the back of improved performance by its petrochemical subsidiary Alpek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Monterrey-based firm, whose business lines include food and telecommunications, revised up its 2021 EBITDA guidance by 10% to $1.937 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Alpek once again delivered better-than-expected EBITDA, boosted by sustained margin strength,” Alfa said in an earnings statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alfa reported a drop in third quarter net profit to 2.491 billion pesos ($121 million), from 3.766 billion pesos a year earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The firm attributed the drop to an unfavorable comparison with the same period in 2020, when it benefited from a $95 million gain from discontinued operations related to the spin-off of its auto parts producer Nemak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alfa’s quarterly revenue rose 17.7% to 79.552 billion pesos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shares of Alfa closed down 1.14% at 14.74 pesos each before the earnings report was released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
