Organization and basis of presentation Organization and basis of presentation
Organization
Amrize Ltd (the “Company”) is a building solutions company focused exclusively on the North American
market, offering customers a broad range of advanced building solutions from foundation to rooftop. The Company
earns revenue from the sale of cement, aggregates, ready-mix concrete, asphalt, roofing systems and other building
solutions.
The Company is organized into two reportable segments — Building Materials and Building Envelope —
that are aligned with the products and services it provides and based upon the information used by the chief
operating decision maker (“CODM”) in evaluating the performance of the business and allocating resources and
capital.
Building Materials: The building materials segment offers a range of branded solutions delivering high-
quality products for a wide range of applications. These include cement and aggregates, as well as a
variety of downstream products and solutions such as ready-mix concrete, asphalt and other construction
materials.
Building Envelope: The building envelope segment offers advanced roofing and wall systems, including
single-ply membranes, insulation, shingles, sheathing, waterproofing and protective coatings, along with
adhesives, tapes and sealants that are critical to the application of roofing and wall systems.
On May 14, 2025, the holders of ordinary shares of Holcim Ltd (“Parent”) approved the Spin-off of the
Company (the “Spin-off”). On June 23, 2025 (the “Separation and Distribution Date”), Parent completed the
previously announced Spin-off through a distribution of 100% of the Company’s outstanding shares (the
“Distribution”) to holders of record of Parent’s ordinary shares, on a pro rata basis as a dividend-in-kind, as of the
close of business on June 20, 2025, which resulted in the issuance of 553,082,069 shares of common stock. This
amount is based on 566,875,513 Parent shares outstanding at the Separation and Distribution Date and 13,793,444
shares not distributed to Parent shareholders that are held by the Company as treasury stock. In connection with the
Distribution, the Company and Parent consummated a series of internal reorganization transactions resulting in the
Company becoming the holder, directly or through its subsidiaries, of the business, activities and operations of
Parent and its affiliates in the United States, Canada, Switzerland, and Jamaica, as well as certain support operations
in Colombia and certain trading operations. As a result of the Distribution, the Company became an independent
public company. The Company’s common stock is listed under the symbol “AMRZ” on the New York Stock
Exchange and the SIX Swiss Exchange.
Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “we,” “our,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to (i)
Amrize Ltd’s business prior to the Spin-off as a carve-out business of Parent and (ii) Amrize Ltd and its subsidiaries
following the Spin-off.
Basis of presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). While the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the disclosures provided
in annual financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Company’s historical combined financial statements and accompanying notes included within
the Company’s Form 10 filed with the SEC.
Prior to the Spin-off, the Company operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent and not as a standalone
company. These condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes reflect the historical financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of the Company as historically managed within Parent for periods prior to the
completion of the Spin-off and reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as
a standalone company for periods after the completion of the Spin-off. The historical condensed consolidated
financial statements and footnotes for periods prior to the completion of the Spin-off were prepared on a “carve-out”
basis in connection with the Spin-off, and were derived from the consolidated financial statements and historical
accounting records of Parent.
For periods prior to the Spin-off, the condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects all of the assets and
liabilities of Parent that are specifically identifiable or directly attributable to the Company, including Net parent
investment as a component of equity. Net parent investment represents Parent’s historical investment in the
Company and includes accumulated net income attributable to the Company and the net effect of transactions with
Parent and its subsidiaries. See Note 18 (Related party) for additional information. All intercompany balances and
transactions within the Company have been eliminated in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements.
Prior to the Spin-off, the Company and Parent had intercompany activity resulting in revenues and
expenses for both parties. As described in Note 18 (Related party), certain related party transactions between the
Company and Parent have been included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Pursuant
to the Spin-off, Parent ceased to be a related party to the Company and accordingly, no related party transactions or
balances have been reported subsequent to the Separation and Distribution Date.
Prior to the Spin-off, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations included expense
allocations for certain corporate, infrastructure and other shared services provided by Parent on a centralized basis,
including but not limited to accounting and financial reporting, treasury, tax, legal, human resources, information
technology, insurance, employee benefits and other shared services that are either specifically identifiable or directly
attributable to the Company. These expenses had been allocated to the Company on the basis of direct usage when
specifically identifiable, with the remainder predominantly allocated on a pro rata basis using revenues. The
Company’s management considers this allocation to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided
or the benefit received by the Company during the periods presented. However, these expense allocations may not
be indicative of the actual expenses that would have been incurred had the Company been a standalone company
during the periods presented, and they may not reflect what the Company’s results of operations may be in the
future. See Note 18 (Related party) for additional information. Following the Spin-off, a limited number of services
that Parent provided to the Company prior to the Spin-off are continuing to be provided for a period of time under a
Transition Services Agreement. The Company is now incurring certain costs as a standalone public company,
including services provided by its own resources or through third-party service providers relating to corporate
functions, including executive leadership, accounting and financial reporting, treasury, compliance and regulatory,
human resources, information technology, marketing and communications, insurance, as well as ongoing additional
costs associated with operating as an independent, publicly-traded company.
Historically, Parent used a centralized approach to cash management and financing of operations. Prior to
the Spin-off, a majority of the Company’s subsidiaries participated in Parent’s centralized cash management and
financing function. While the Company maintained bank accounts in the name of its respective legal entities in order
to conduct day-to-day business, cash was managed centrally as part of the overall treasury function and Parent
oversaw a cash pooling program whereby cash was swept from any subsidiary accounts, including the Company’s
accounts, on a daily basis. As such, cash and cash equivalents held by Parent at the corporate level were not
specifically identifiable or directly attributable to the Company and, therefore, have not been reflected in these
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prior to the Spin-off. Rather, the Company’s residual cash
pooling balances as of the end of each reporting period prior to the Spin-off were recorded within Related-party
notes receivable. See Note 18 (Related party) for more information.
Further, Parent’s third-party debt and related interest expense was not attributed to the Company because
the Company was not considered the primary obligor of the debt, and the Company was not a named guarantor or
joint and severally liable for any of Parent’s third-party debt. Prior to the Spin-off, the Company had related-party
note agreements in place with Parent for the financing of its capital needs, which are reflected as Related-party notes
payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024. As part of the Spin-off, the
Company issued senior unsecured notes and completed a bond exchange as described in Note 10 (Debt). A portion
of the proceeds from the issuance of the senior unsecured notes and completion of the bond exchange was used to
repay the Company’s related-party indebtedness due to Parent. Parent also completed an equity contribution to the
Company to settle the remaining related-party indebtedness due to Parent as described in Note 18 (Related party).
Interest expense, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations reflects interest on borrowing
and funding associated with the related-party note agreements for periods prior to the Spin-off. Subsequent to the
Spin-off, Interest expense, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations reflects interest
expense primarily related to the newly issued senior unsecured notes, the notes obtained in the bond exchange with
Parent, the commercial paper program, and interest associated with other long-term debt. See Note 10 (Debt) for
further detail.
In connection with the Spin-off, the Company entered or adopted several agreements, including a
Separation and Distribution Agreement, Transition Services Agreement, and Tax Matters Agreement, among others,
that provide a framework for the post separation relationship between the Company and Parent. See Note 18
(Related party) for more information on these agreements.
Additionally, in relation to the Spin-off, the Company recorded approximately $6 million and $5 million of
various transaction costs for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $11 million and $10
million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, all of which were allocated to the Company
from Parent. These transaction costs allocated from the Parent to the Company correspond to the costs incurred by
the Parent that are directly attributable to the Company, such as rebranding costs, employee-related costs (i.e.
recruitment and relocation expenses) and costs to establish certain standalone functions. These costs are recorded in
Selling, general and administrative expenses and are deemed to be settled in the period in which the costs are
included in Net parent investment on the condensed consolidated balance sheet for periods prior to the Spin-off.
Use of estimates
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP,
which requires management to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect
the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported on these unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company has continued to follow the accounting policies set
forth in the historical combined financial statements and accompanying notes included within the Company’s Form
10 filed with the SEC. Management’s assumptions, estimates and judgments are based on historical experience,
current trends and other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.
On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to
ensure that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with
U.S. GAAP, and the Company revises its estimates, as appropriate, when events or changes in circumstances
indicate that revisions may be necessary. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the
opinion of management, all material adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
fairly state, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company for the periods presented.
Significant accounting estimates reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
are used for, but are not limited to, accounting for the inventory excess and obsolescence reserves, revenue
recognition under the percentage of completion method, volume based rebates, contingent liabilities including
warranty, pension and other postretirement benefits, tax valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, impairment of
goodwill and other intangible assets, asset retirement obligations, self-insurance reserves, litigation and other loss
contingencies, fair values of acquired assets and liabilities assumed under the acquisition method of accounting and
assumptions used for the allocation of general corporate expenses prior to the Spin-off. The Company also considers
the potential impacts of climate-related factors in developing the estimates and assumptions underlying the
accounting areas noted above.
Estimates and assumptions have been based on the available information and regulations in place as of June
30, 2025. Although these assumptions and estimates are based on management’s knowledge of, and experience with,
past and current events, actual results could differ materially from these assumptions and estimates.
Fair value measurement
The carrying values of the Company’s Cash and cash equivalents and Short-term borrowings approximate
their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. See Note 10 (Debt) for disclosures on the fair
value of Long-term debt.
