Swiss plumbing materials maker Geberit reported a 4.4% rise in fourth-quarter sales on Thursday, helped by volume growth in most of its regions.
Geberit – whose results are an indicator of the health of the broader construction industry – said its sales in local currencies came in at 715 million Swiss francs ($892.86 million), slightly ahead of analysts’ estimate of 713 million francs in a poll by Visible Alpha.
