This week we at Bourse review the performance of Ansa McAL Limited (AMCL) and Agostini’s Limited (AGL) for their respective first quarter and half year ended March 31st, 2024. AMCL would have benefited from improved revenues and margins, supported by its acquisitions/geographical initiatives. AGL, meanwhile, experienced a decline in earnings accompanied by reduced margins. Could AMCL continue to grow its earnings? Can AGL effectively manage its costs as the financial year progresses?
