## Swiss chemicals maker Sika posts 13.8% jump in Q1 sales   (Reuters) -Swiss chemicals maker Sika AG on Tuesday reported a 13.8% increase in its first-quarter sales and confirmed its outlook for 2024, saying it anticipated sales growth of between 6% and 9% in local currencies this year.    Sika reported sales of 2.648 billion Swiss francs ($2.90 billion) for the quarter, the company said in a presentation.    The company added that it was forecasting an “over-proportional” increase in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) this year.    Sika pointed to its acquisition this month of U.S. firm Kwik Bond Polymers, a manufacturer of polymer systems for the refurbishment of concrete infrastructure, as part of its plans to keep investing in future growth.
