Aug 11 (Reuters) - Australia's James Hardie Industries (JHX) on Tuesday said first-quarter profit fell 1%, hit by low sales volumes in Europe and the closure of several manufacturing plants due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The world's biggest fibre cement maker said adjusted net operating profit for the quarter ended June 30 was $89.3 million, compared with $90.2 million a year ago.
The Dublin-based company, which had previously withheld its annual forecast citing coronavirus-led uncertainty, said it expects adjusted net operating profit between $330 million and $390 million in fiscal 2021.
