Holcim Unveils NextGen Growth 2030 After Spinning Off Amrize as Independent Builder Partner

(IN BRIEF) Holcim has spun off Amrize via a dividend-in-kind distribution (one Amrize share per Holcim share as of June 20, 2025), creating two standalone, publicly traded companies. CEO Miljan Gutovic praised the workforce for the smooth execution and underscored Holcim’s renewed focus on sustainable construction and major growth markets through its NextGen Growth 2030 strategy. That plan includes targeted investments and M&A in Latin America, Europe, Australia, and North Africa, plus an expanded high-value Building Solutions offering. Amrize will begin trading under “AMRZ” on the SIX Swiss Exchange and NYSE.

(PRESS RELEASE) ZUG, 23-Jun-2025— /EuropaWire/ — Holcim (SWX: HOLN), a global leader in innovative and sustainable building solutions, announces that it has finalized the full spin-off of Amrize—North America’s go-to partner for professional builders—by distributing one Amrize share for every outstanding Holcim share as of the close of business on 20 June 2025. This dividend-in-kind transaction establishes Holcim and Amrize as two fully independent, publicly traded entities, each with a focused management team and strategy tailored to their distinct markets.

Miljan Gutovic, Holcim’s CEO, remarked, “Today marks a pivotal milestone for both Holcim and Amrize. I extend my gratitude to our colleagues for the exceptional efforts that made this spin-off possible. We congratulate Jan Jenisch on leading Amrize into its next chapter and wish the new company every success. For Holcim, now unencumbered, we will harness our position as a leader in sustainable construction to pursue the major megatrends reshaping our industry. Alongside our 48,000 employees, we are fully committed to executing NextGen Growth 2030, which we unveiled in March.”

Under the NextGen Growth 2030 roadmap, Holcim will direct its capital toward the most compelling markets—from Latin America and Europe to Australia and North Africa—deploying resources for growth-centric investments and value-accretive M&A. By broadening its high-value Building Solutions portfolio—spanning energy-efficient building systems to advanced concrete technologies—Holcim aims to capture new market opportunities and deliver profitable expansion.

Amrize shares are scheduled to begin trading under the ticker “AMRZ” on the SIX Swiss Exchange at 9:00 a.m. CEST and on the New York Stock Exchange at 9:30 a.m. ET.
