Consolidated statement of cash flows (abridged version)
| Starting point financial year 2016 |
Outlook financial year 2017 |
|
|---|---|---|
| Output volume | €4,219 million | Organic decrease in the mid to high single digit percentage range |
| Adjusted EBITA | €15 million | Break-even |
Output volume: Output volume for the Group (previous year: €4,219 million) will decline again in 2017 with the organic decrease expected to be in the mid to high single-digit percentage range.
We anticipate a more significant reduction in output volume in the Engineering & Technologies segment due to the continued selective acceptance of orders in the project business (previous year: €1,246 million). In the Maintenance, Modifications & Operations segment, on the other hand, we only expect a slight decrease (previous year: €2,461 million). For Other Operations – considering the potential sale of companies – a stable organic development is anticipated (previous year: €615 million).
Assuming an upturn in demand in the second half of the year, orders received for the Group will grow organically as compared to the prior year.
Adjusted EBITA / adjusted EBITA return: In terms of adjusted EBITA (previous year: €15 million), rather than the previously forecast margin increase of about 100 basis points, Bilfinger now expects to break even. This is a result of the risk provisions made in the second quarter of 2017 for a small number of legacy projects in the USA in the amount of -€53 million.
In the Engineering & Technologies segment, adjusted EBITA will be at about the level of the previous year (previous year: -€30 million). In the Maintenance, Modifications & Operations segment, we expect a slight decrease in the adjusted EBITA margin (previous year: 4.9 percent). In Other Operations, adjusted EBITA is expected to improve (previous year: 0.8 percent).
Adjusted free cash flow: Adjusted free cash flow in 2017 will be below the figure from the previous year (-€111 million) as a result of project burdens in the E&T segment. This figure relates to continuing operations, which means the expected payment from the legal dispute in Qatar is not reflected here.
Capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment: We expect capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment in 2017 to rise as compared to the prior year due to backlog effects. At a share of a good 2 percent of our output volume, this is at the upper end of the sustainable level of between 1.5 and 2 percent.
No significant changes occurred with regard to opportunities and risks during the reporting period compared with the situation as described in the Annual Report 2016. In our assessment, no risks exist that would jeopardize the continued existence of the Group. Overall, our economic environment has not changed significantly.
Our company continues to develop according to plan after the balance-sheet date. No events have occurred that are of particular significance for the Group's profitability, cash flows or financial position.

Segment reporting is prepared in accordance with IFRS 8. The reportable segments of the Bilfinger Group reflect the internal reporting structure. The definition of the segments is based on products and services.
At the beginning of financial year 2017, the Bilfinger Group was restructured and now consists of the following three business segments: Engineering & Technologies, Maintenance, Modifications & Operations and Other Operations. Segment reporting, including prior-year figures, has been adjusted accordingly. The Maintenance, Modifications & Operations business segment includes the divisions Continental Europe, Northwest Europe, North America and Middle East. The other two business segments are also divisions. The Engineering & Technologies segment bundles activities based on engineering services and technical solutions. The project business is predominant; important drivers are capital expenditures on the part of our customers (CAPEX). We meet the requirements of our customers by means of a centrally controlled project management system in an internationally-active division focused on defined industries and engineering disciplines. The Maintenance, Modifications & Operations segment includes activities in ongoing maintenance services, modifications and operational management of industrial plants. The predominant factor here is the share of the services business based on long-term framework agreements. The main drivers of the business are, in many cases, the budgets of our customers for the ongoing operation of their plants (operational expenditure - OPEX). Because these relate primarily to activities with specific local demand structures, we have organized this business in regions. The Other Operations business segment includes operating units that are active outside of the business segments, regions or customer groups defined above. These units are not a focus of the new strategic positioning of the Group, but rather are up for sale in the short term or independently managed for value with the goal of a later sale.
Earnings before interest, taxes and amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions (EBITA) is the key performance indicator for the business units and the Group, and thus the metric for earnings in our segment reporting. EBIT is also reported. The reconciliation of EBIT to earnings before taxes from continuing operations is derived from the consolidated income statement.

Bilfinger SE is a listed stock corporation in accordance with the law of the Federal Republic of Germany. The company is registered with the Commercial Register of the Mannheim District Court under HRB 710296 and has its headquarters at Carl-Reiß-Platz 1-5, 68165 Mannheim, Germany. Bilfinger is an internationally-oriented industrial services company, which offers engineering and other industrial services to customers in the process industry.
The interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2017 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as they are to be applied in the EU, as were the consolidated financial statements for the year 2016, and comply with the requirements of IAS 34. They do not provide all of the information and disclosures included in complete consolidated financial statements and are therefore to be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016. The accounting policies explained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for 2016 have been applied unchanged.
These interim consolidated financial statements of Bilfinger SE were approved for publication by the Executive Board on August 3, 2017.
Bilfinger is currently reviewing the effect of the application of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers (first application for both in annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018).
As of June 30, 2017, Bilfinger holds financial assets that constitute equity instruments of other companies and which, in accordance with IFRS 9, can be measured at fair value either through profit or loss or directly in equity, in the amount of €233 million. With regard to the accounting policy selection to be made for each instrument, Bilfinger has not yet reached a decision. The effects of the new regulation on the measurement of impairment losses (expected credit losses instead of incurred losses in accordance with IAS 39) are still currently under review; in the future, impairment losses will, however, have to be recognized earlier than in accordance with IAS 39. There are also additional disclosures in accordance with IFRS 7 with the application of IFRS 9.
Changes to the total amount and the timing of revenues recognized from contracts with customers in accordance with IFRS 15 are currently only expected to a very limited extent. On the basis of analyses carried out, it is expected that the majority of construction contracts, which are currently accounted for in accordance with the percentage of completion method, fulfill the prerequisites for a recognition of revenues over time. In addition, Bilfinger expects changes to the balance sheet and further quantitative and qualitative disclosures. The Group-wide analysis of the impact on the consolidated financial statements has not yet been completed. Bilfinger does not, however, expect any significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
As was the case in the prior-year period, no acquisitions were made during the interim reporting period.
In the reporting period, Group companies up for sale Bilfinger MCE Aschersleben GmbH, Bilfinger Babcock Hungary Kft., Bilfinger IT Hungary Kft., Bilfinger Scheven GmbH and Kin Sun Construction & Engineering (Macau) Ltd. were sold.
In the prior-year period, the former Water Technologies division, the steel and mechanical engineering activities and portions of the Asia-Pacific activities from the Engineering Solutions division were sold and the acquisition of the Mauell Group was reversed.
The overall effects of the sales were as follows:

3.3 Discontinued operations
Discontinued operations comprise:
In accordance with the provisions of IFRS 5, the investments put up for sale have been recognized as discontinued operations as of the time of reclassification:
Since the dates of their reclassification, non-current assets classified as held for sale have no longer been subject to depreciation or amortization and subsequent measurement according to the equity method was ceased for the investments accounted for using the equity method.
The amounts in the consolidated income statement and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the prior-year period have been adjusted accordingly.
All discontinued operations with the exception of Building, Facility Services, Real Estate and Water Technologies are reported together under Construction activities.
Earnings from discontinued operations are allocated to Construction activities, Building, Facility Services, Real Estate and Water Technologies as follows:
| in € million | January 1 - June 30 | |
|---|---|---|
| 2017 | 2016 | |
| Construction activities | 50 | 2 |
| Building, Facility Services, Real Estate | – | 26 |
| Water Technologies | – | -18 |
| Earnings after taxes from discontinued operations | 50 | 10 |
Earnings after taxes from discontinued operations were fully attributable (previous year: nearly fully attributable) to the shareholders of Bilfinger SE.
| in € million | January 1 - June 30 | |

| Net interest result | 0 | 0 |
| Earnings before taxes | 50 | 3 |
| Income taxes | 0 | -1 |
| Earnings after taxes | 50 | 2 |
Income and expenses include a positive effect from a long-standing legal dispute in Qatar. The reason for this is a payment received for a previously not capitalized receivable on a joint-venture account that had a positive impact of €60 million on earnings from discontinued operations.

In order to present the Group's entire output volume in the interest of more complete information, we disclose our output volume in the consolidated income statement. In addition to revenue, it includes the proportion of output volume generated by consortiums and amounts to €1,949 million (previous year: €2,141 million).
Amortization of €4 million was carried out on intangible assets from acquisitions (previous year: €5 million). These are reported in Cost of sales. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and the amortization of other intangible assets amount to €37 million (previous year: €54 million). This includes impairment losses of €2 million (previous year: €14 million). In addition, impairment losses on financial assets in the amount of €1 million (previous year: €1 million) were recognized.
The measurement of the disposal groups resulted in a total impairment loss in the amount of €4 million (previous year: €6 million) (see Note 10). This is recognized in Other operating income and expense.

| Other financial result | -1 | -1 |
| Total | -7 | -11 |
Deferred tax assets on loss carryforwards are only recognized insofar as their realization is reasonably certain. Based on current assessments, this is not the case in particular for losses incurred at Bilfinger SE and its tax group companies, so that no deferred tax assets on tax-loss carryforwards were recognized as of June 30, 2017.

In the Engineering & Technologies division, in the second quarter of 2017 in the USA there were burdens on earnings from risk provisions for a small number of legacy projects in the total amount of -€53 million. Mid-term targets, however, remain unchanged. The annual review of goodwill allocated to this division as of December 31, 2016 showed that the value in use of the division was well above its carrying amount. Even a significant increase in the discount rate (by more than 2 percentage points) with a simultaneous significantly negative deviation from the cash flows assumed in the planning figures (by more than 40 percent) would not have resulted in a need to impair goodwill. The burdens on earnings from the small number of legacy projects have a considerably more limited effect on the carrying amount and the value in use, so that also as of June 30, 2017, there is no write-down necessary.

As of the balance-sheet date, Assets classified as held for sale and Liabilities classified as held for sale comprise the following disposal groups:
In the second quarter of 2017, STS Steinmüller Siemers GmbH, Bilfinger ELWO S.A. and Bilfinger Neo Structo Private Limited from the Other Operations business segment were put up for sale. Accordingly, the Group companies were thus classified as disposal groups and were measured at fair value less cost to sell. Fair value was measured on the basis of the expected selling prices. This resulted in an impairment loss of €5 million (see Note 5).
Furthermore, the remeasurement as of the balance sheet date on the basis of updated expected selling prices for Envi Con & Plant Engineering GmbH and Bilfinger Babcock CZ s.r.o. in the Other Operations business segment resulted in a gain from the reversal of previously recognized impairment losses in the amount of €1 million (see Note 5) and an impairment loss for the discontinued marine construction activities of €8 million (see Note 3.3.1).
The shares in Julius Berger Nigeria plc (16.5 percent) previously classified as assets held for sale, were reclassified in the second quarter of 2017 as not held for sale because a sale is no longer considered highly probable. The reclassified shares are now again presented under Non-current other financial assets.
The Assets classified as held for sale and Liabilities classified as held for sale are comprised as follows:
| in € million | ||
|---|---|---|
| June 30, 2017 | Dec. 31, 2016 | |
| Goodwill | 2 | 4 |
| Other non-current assets | 7 | 43 |
| Current assets | 15 | 27 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 4 | 7 |
| Assets classified as held for sale | 28 | 81 |
| Non-current liabilities | 1 | 2 |
| Current liabilities | 72 | 66 |
| Liabilities classified as held for sale | 73 | 68 |
Accumulated other comprehensive income after taxes of the disposal groups as of the balance-sheet date amounts to -€4 million (December 31, 2016: -€1 million), of which €0 million (December 31, 2016: €0 million) is attributable to minority interest.
The classification of equity and changes in equity are presented in the interim consolidated financial statements in the consolidated statement of changes in equity.
Earnings after taxes (-€62 million) and transactions recognized directly in equity (-€53 million) led to a net decrease in equity of €115 million.
In addition to the payment of the dividend for financial year 2016 in the amount of €44 million, transactions recognized directly in equity primarily comprise negative effects from currency translation in the amount of €32 million, gains from the remeasurement of defined benefit pension plans in the amount of €10 million that result from the adjustments to the discount rate as well as gains from the fair-value measurement of securities in the amount of €12 million.
The decrease in Provisions for pensions and similar obligations of €11 million to €293 million primarily reflects the adjustment of the discount rate from 1.6 percent to 1.8 percent in the euro zone due to increased interest rates as of June 30, 2017. The remeasurement gains resulting from the adjustments to the discount rate are recognized in equity.
The methods for the measurement of fair value remain fundamentally unchanged from December 31, 2016. Further explanations on the measurement methods can be found in the Annual Report 2016.
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities reflect for the most part the carrying amounts as of the balance sheet date. The fair value of the issued bond amounts to €520 million with a carrying amount of €500 million as of the reporting date (reported under non-current financial debt).
The fair value of the non-listed, equity-like participation rights in Triangle Holding II S.A. (AfS securities) is measured using a combined discounted-cash-flow and multiplicator method on the basis of financial planning (unobservable input) and discount rates calculated using the capital asset pricing model or multiplicators (observable input). Any changes to the planned results or cash flows have a direct impact on the fair value. The change to fair value in the amount of €14 million was presented in the fair-value measurement of securities reserve. This resulted primarily from updated planning figures.
Most of the transactions between fully consolidated companies of the Group and related companies or persons involve associated companies and joint ventures.
Contingent liabilities of €149 million (December 31, 2016: €341 million) generally relate to guarantees provided for former Group companies that were sold and companies in which Bilfinger holds a minority interest. There are collaterals of buyers of the former Group companies in the amount of €93 million. In addition, we are jointly and severally liable as partners in companies constituted under the German Civil Code and in connection with consortiums and joint ventures.
Other contingent liabilities comprise in particular potential litigation charges. These include judicial, arbitrative, and out-of-court proceedings involving customers and subcontractors that file claims or may in future file claims under various contracts, for example under contracts for maintenance and servicing as well as other supply and service relationships. At this time, however, Bilfinger does not expect that these legal disputes will result in any significant negative effects on its net assets and financial position.
There have been no significant events since the balance sheet date.
To the best of our knowledge, and in accordance with the applicable reporting principles for interim financial reporting, the interim consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the net assets and financial position of the Group, and the interim management report of the Group includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and position of the Group, together with a description of the principal opportunities and risks associated with the expected development of the Group in the remaining months of the financial year.

All statements made in this report that relate to the future have been made in good faith and based on the best knowledge available. However, as those statements also depend on factors beyond our control, actual developments may differ from our forecasts.
B Interim consolidated financial statements B.4 Review Report
We have reviewed the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, comprising the income statement, the statement of comprehensive income, the balance sheet, the statement of changes in equity, the statement of cash flows and notes, and the interim group management report of Bilfinger SE, Mannheim, for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2017, which are part of the six-monthly financial report pursuant to Sec. 37w WpHG ["Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": German Securities Trading Act]. The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRSs [International Financial Reporting Standards] on interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and of the group management report in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report based on our review.
We conducted our review of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer [Institute of Public Auditors in Germany] (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain a certain level of assurance in our critical appraisal to preclude that the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IFRSs on interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to making inquiries of company personnel and applying analytical procedures and thus does not provide the assurance that we would obtain from an audit of financial statements. In accordance with our engagement, we have not performed an audit and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IFRSs on interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU or that the interim group management report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports.
