CRH plc: Focus On International And Inorganic Growth

I retain a 'Buy' rating for CRH after analyzing the company's quarterly performance and its outlook for the current year. The group's EBITDA rose by a mid-teens percentage in 4Q2025, thanks to the strong showing from its International Solutions segment. I expect CRH's actual FY26 EBITDA to reach the upper end of its guidance, supported by pricing upside in non-U.S. markets and inorganic growth.

CRH plc: Overvaluation In 2026

CRH plc is fundamentally strong but currently trades at historically high valuations, driven by NA-focused growth and sector-wide premiumization. CRH derives over 75% of EBITDA from North America, with 40% tied to publicly-funded infrastructure, increasing cyclicality and exposure to U.S. market downturns. Despite record results and strong capital allocation, CRH's 22x+ P/E, sub-1.2% yield, and uncertain growth prospects make current risk/reward unattractive.
