According to Cornerstone, the main reason for the decline in revenue was reduced demand in some end markets due to the pandemic. As numerous projects were suspended due to local outbreaks of COVID-19, the non-residential real estate sector has shown the biggest decline. Despite pursuing a cost control strategy, the company reported a decline in profits for the same reason.
Cornerstone Building Brands Inc (CNR)said during its quarterly announcement that it expects increased sales in 2021 in light of increased industrial activity in the single-family housing market.
