Dear shareholders, associates and friends of STRABAG SE,
While we were unable to make up for the first quarter's weather-related decline in output volume in the second quarter of 2013 – also due to the flood in vast parts of Europe –, we remain confident of being able to report a full-year figure for output volume that roughly corresponds to that of the previous year: In view of the harsh winter in Germany, there is a lot of work to be done in the area of road maintenance and repairs here. Moreover, several international projects that we acquired in the meantime were not yet included in the order backlog as at the end of June. In Poland, which recorded one of the greatest declines, a large portion of the projected 2013 output volume is based on previously acquired contracts. We can even see a slight improvement of the climate in the Polish construction sector for the years to come: more than 700 km of expressways are planned for realisation here between 2014 and 2020, of which, however, only a small amount is likely to be awarded this year.
Overall, my management board colleagues and I are staying with the forecast of approx. € 14.0 billion for the group's output volume in the 2013 financial year. While we currently see another slight worsening of the business environment in the European construction sector, and an intensified competition on the price as a result, we also believe that larger negative non-recurring items will not impact the result to the same degree as in 2012. We therefore continue to expect the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) to grow to at least € 260 million in the 2013 financial year.
Your Thomas Birtel
Austrian EFKON AG headquartered in Graz/Raaba, a STRABAG SE subsidiary, has reported two new large orders in Germany and Malaysia with a value in the double-digit million euro range. The company has received a follow-up order for the delivery of On-Board Modules for the satellite-based truck tolling system in Germany as well as a large order in Malaysia comprising the delivery of 250,000 electronic toll collection units.
STRABAG Real Estate GmbH was, after more than four years of bidding process, awarded the contract for the planning, construction and operation of a government building in Potsdam, Germany. The project, with an order value of about € 82 million, will be executed as a public-private partnership over a period of 30 years, not including the nearly two-year period of construction.
Thuringia's Minister of Economic Affairs, Matthias Machnig, has announced planning the construction of a pumped-storage plant in Thuringia together with STRABAG SE and future investors. After in-depth examination of two sites, current plans envision a pumped-storage plant with a capacity of 640 MW at the Ellrich site and one with a capacity of 380 MW at Leutenberg/Probstzella – the latter would be enough to supply more than half a million households with electricity during a six-hour period.
STRABAG SE strives to become a more attractive employer especially for women graduates of technical and commercial secondary schools and universities. The aim is to annually increase the global percentage of women employees from a current 13 % in the group and 8 % in management.
STRABAG SE has issued a € 200 million corporate bond. The fixed-interest bond with a face value of € 1,000.00 has a term to maturity of seven years and a coupon of 3.00 % p.a. The issue price has been set at 101.407 %.
A consortium led by STRABAG subsidiary Heilit+Woerner Sp. z o.o. has been awarded the contract from Poland's General Directorate for National Roads and Highways GDDKiA to complete the 35 km section of the A4 motorway between Krzyż and Dębica Pustynia. The contract value amounts to € 236 million, 50 % of which is Heilit+Woerner's share.
With the end of the Annual General Meeting on 14 June 2013, Hans Peter Haselsteiner has tendered his resignation from the management board. In the future, he will support the management board as an authorised representative in matters concerning the group's internationalisation and strategic orientation. Thomas Birtel succeeded him as new CEO.
Jena University Hospital and STRABAG subsidiary Ed. Züblin AG as general contractor signed the contract for the construction of the second section of Thuringia's university clinic. By the year 2018, the new buildings to be erected will offer around 49,000 sqm of usable space for 15 clinics and institutes, with 710 beds and twelve operating rooms, as well as research and teaching facilities. The total project costs amount to € 316 million.

The STRABAG Group has undergone enormous growth in Switzerland over the past few years with the acquisitions of Brunner Erben AG, Astrada AG, Egolf AG, Meyerhans AG and Baunova AG. In order to achieve a uniform presence on the Swiss market, these group companies were merged into STRABAG AG, Switzerland, effective retroactively to 1 January 2013. Eggstein AG, which had already been merged into STRABAG AG, Switzerland, in 2010 and which had been renamed Eggstein Swissboring, is now doing business under the STRABAG brand. Under the merger, STRABAG AG, Switzerland, assumed the assets and liabilities of the acquired companies. STRABAG SE continues to hold 100 % of the shares of its subsidiary STRABAG AG, Switzerland.
Four new contracts have increased the order backlog of the STRABAG Group until July 2013 by more than € 230 million. Those projects include the construction of a flood protection dam for € 92 million in Oman, two road construction projects in Oman with a total contract value of € 28 million, production of concrete sleepers for railway construction worth € 88 million in Thailand and construction of an LNG tank in Brunei, worth € 23 million.
Through its German subsidiary, Ed. Züblin AG of Stuttgart, STRABAG has been awarded a large contract by the Deutsche Bahn AG, with an order volume of € 250 million, 60 % of which is Ed. Züblin AG's share. The construction of the 5.9 km tunnel from the Swabian Jura to the tracks of Ulm Central Station will last four-and-a-half-years.
DEVELOPMENT OF STRABAG SE SHARE PRICE AND THE BENCHMARK INDEXES
Shares of STRABAG SE saw several bursts of growth in the first half of 2013 without, however, remaining at these high levels. In the end, the year-to-date high of € 20.61 that had been registered on 2 January 2013 was not matched in the second quarter. STRABAG SE's shares closed at € 15.90 on 28 June 2013, just above the year-todate low of € 15.59 from 25 June 2013. This corresponds to a minus of 22 % since the beginning of the year.
The Austrian benchmark index ATX, which had started the second quarter with positive growth, was unable to maintain this trend and ended the first six months of 2013 with a minus of 7 %. Europe's Euro Stoxx 50 was down by 1 %. Growth – in part considerable – was registered by the other international stock exchanges: The industry index STOXX Europe 600 Construction & Materials posted a slight plus of 2 %, New York's Dow Jones Industrials was up by 14 % and Japan's Nikkei Index even grew by 32 %.
On 23 May 2013, STRABAG ended its share buyback programme. From July 2011, the company continuously bought back a total of 11,400,000 shares on the stock market as well as over the counter, corresponding to 10 % of all issued shares. This brings the volume of the free float to 13 %. Some € 237 million were spent on the buyback.
The cumulative trade volume of STRABAG shares on the Vienna Stock Exchange in the first six months of 2013 amounted to € 145 million, with an average trade volume per day of 67,047 shares. Due to the low trade volume, shares of STRABAG SE are no longer listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange's ATX index as of 18 March 2013.
STRABAG's shares are currently under observation by eleven international banks. The analysts calculated an average share price target of € 18.00. Detailed analyses and recommendations are available on the STRABAG SE website at www.strabag.com > Investor Relations > Share > Research & Analysts

Because of the late start of the building season, the output volume of the STRABAG SE Group decreased in the first half of 2013 by 7 % versus the same period of the previous year to € 5,643.00 million. Weather-related declines were registered especially in Germany and in Poland, with an additional expected reduction of the output volume in Poland for market reasons. The consolidated group revenue amounted to € 5,159.15 million, 10 % below the level of the comparison period in the previous year. The ratio of revenue to output volume was 91 %.
The completion of large projects, for example in Benelux, Poland, Canada, Romania and the Middle East, significantly reduced the order backlog by 7 % to € 14,046.50 million. This figure still places the volume of orders at a relatively high level, however, and it does not yet include several international projects that have been acquired since 30 June 2013.
The limited capacity for construction in winter results in significant seasonal effects on the development of earnings and other financial figures of STRABAG SE. The first two quarters of the year typically have a negative effect on results, which is then overcompensated by results in the second half of the year. Because of these seasonal effects, a quarterly comparison makes little sense.
Despite the lower revenue, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased manifold in the first half of 2013 from € 16.14 million to € 68.47 million. The previous year's second-quarter results had been distorted by damage compensation payments related to an arbitration ruling on a failed acquisition. Due to a 5 % increase of the depreciation and amortisation in the first half of the year, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) – which reached € -122.81 million this year after € -166.72 million the year before – did not improve to the same degree as the EBITDA.
The negative interest income decreased significantly: While the € -30.66 million of the comparison period had included approx. € -19 million in negative currency exchange rate differences, the first half of 2013 saw exchange rate gains of nearly € 8 million so that the interest income reached € -8.88 million. Below the line, this resulted in a total profit before tax of € -131.70 million after € -197.38 million the year before. The income tax, at € 26.22 million, was therefore in positive territory once again and thus provided some relief. This left a 33 % better – and for the first six months usual – negative net income of € -105.48 million. Thirdparty shareholders helped bear a loss of € 3.66 million, resulting in a net income after minorities of € -101.82 million.
Due to the – now finished – share buyback programme, the number of weighted outstanding shares was down from 104,670,434 to 102,835,636. The earnings per share thus amounted to € -0.99 after € -1.51 in the first half of the previous year.
The balance sheet total of € 10,046.75 million showed little change versus 31 December 2012. The same is true for the equity ratio, which settled at 29.8 % after 31.2 % at year's end. In response to seasonal losses and in view of the financing need during the period, among other things, the net debt position was up from € 154.55 million at year's end to € 606.19 million after the first half of 2013.
The cash flow from profits moved into positive territory, up from € -26.97 million in the first half of 2012 to € 20.18 million in the same period of 2013. Besides the increased working capital management, it was also possible to replace project financing in associated companies with bank financing. As a result, the cash flow from operating activities, which reached € -221.15 million, was 32 % less deeply in negative territory.
The cash flow from investing activities could be contained by 30 % and therefore amounted to € -154.02 million. The purchase of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets was handled even more restrictively than previously and enterprise acquisitions took place to only a minor extent.
In addition to the necessary maintenance expenditures, STRABAG invested especially in equipment for large tunnelling projects in Austria and the international business as well as in the home market of Germany in the first six months of 2013. The expenditures The cash flow from financing activities transitioned into positive territory, from € -67.07 million to € 91.80 million. The comparison period from the previous year had been characterised by a significant repayment of bank borrowings.
included € 172.49 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as well as € 4.08 million for the purchase of financial assets and € 6.46 million for enterprise acquisitions (changes to the scope of consolidation).
Despite the significantly reduced output volume, the number of employees fell by just 1 % to 71,931. Two large changes nearly balanced each other out here: on the one hand, the workforce in Poland was scaled back for market reasons; on the other hand, new large projects in non-European markets resulted in the addition of more than 1,400 jobs.
During the first six months of the financial year, there were no transactions with related parties which significantly influenced the financial situation or the business result nor were there any changes to transactions with related parties which were presented in the annual financial statements and which significantly influenced the financial situation or business result of the first six months of the current financial year.
In the course of its entrepreneurial activities, the STRABAG Group is exposed to a number of risks, which can be identified and assessed using an active risk management system and dealt with by applying an appropriate risk policy. Among the most important risks are external risks such as cyclical fluctuations in the construction industry, operating risks in the selection and execution of projects, as well as financial, organisational, personnel, and investment risks.
The risks are explained in more detail in the 2012 management report. A review of the current risk situation revealed that in the reporting period there existed no risks which threatened the existence of the company and that for the future no risks are recognisable which constitute a threat to its continued existence.
Based on the balanced business in terms of regions and segments, STRABAG SE expects the output volume for the 2013 financial year to remain unchanged versus 2012 at approx. € 14.0 billion. The reduction in Poland is expected to be countered by increases in the international business and in building construction in Austria and Hungary, for example.
While STRABAG SE sees another slight worsening of the business environment in the European construction sector in 2013, and an intensified competition on the price as a result, it also believes that larger negative non-recurring items will not impact the result to the same degree as in 2012. The company therefore continues to expect the group's EBIT to grow to at least € 260 million in the 2013 financial year.

The segment North + West generated an output volume of € 2,519.50 million in the first half of 2013, 7 % lower than in the same period the previous year. Unfavourable weather conditions had delayed the start of the season in the transportation infrastructures business in Germany and Poland. Especially in Poland, these delays were not yet made up in the second quarter; nevertheless, the company expects to reach its planned full-year output of € 5.8 billion for the segment. The revenue decreased by 2 %. The negative earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) decreased by nearly one half to € -76.12 million after € -138.67 million in the comparison period of the previous year. Losses were limited, for example, in the hydraulic engineering business and in Poland.
The order backlog increased to € 6,006.15 million, up 7 % versus the end of June of the previous year. The completion of large projects, for example in Benelux and in Scandinavia, was more than offset by several new large projects in building construction in Germany and transportation infrastructures in Poland. In Jena, Germany, STRABAG subsidiary Ed. Züblin AG assumed responsibility for the construction of a new section of Thuringia's university clinic; the project has a total value of more than € 300 million. In Poland, STRABAG group companies began construction recently on sections of the A4 motorway and the S8 expressway.
The number of employees was down only slightly by 1 % to 24,628. An expansion of the workforce in Germany was countered by an expected reduction for market reasons in Poland.
A note on the outlook of the segment: While STRABAG has indefinitely suspended its investments in the field of offshore wind due to the adverse political and organisational environment in the German renewable energy sector, the company invested in other areas with growth potential in the first half of the year: Ed. Züblin AG expanded its range of services in the field of structural timber engineering with the acquisition of Merk Timber GmbH (former Metsä Wood Merk GmbH), a German manufacturer of cross-laminated timber; STRABAG B.V. took over the employees, equipment and production facilities of the transportation infrastructures activities of Janssen de Jong Groep in the Netherlands.
The building construction business is continuing to develop very positively in Germany – this is as expected, given the high level of coverage of the expected output volume for 2013 from previously acquired orders. Especially worth mentioning here is the stronger dynamism in residential construction in the greater Frankfurt area at this time. However, the positive effects from stable to falling raw materials prices and from steady subcontractor prices are largely being neutralised by wage and salary increases. In the field of transportation infrastructures in Germany, the weather-related delay in output in the second quarter could not yet be entirely made up – nevertheless, the late start of the season is unlikely to have a negative effect on the total output volume this year, as the winter also brought with it an increased need for renovation. The high price pressure continues to be a burden, however, caused by the investment backlog for urgently needed road construction and maintenance measures.
In Poland, too, a large part of the planned output volume of € 800 million for 2013 has also already been booked in the order backlog, and the company is here also confident of being able to make up the weather-related delay in output volume by year's end. Further momentum, however, is not expected until 2014 at the earliest: although more than 700 km of expressways are planned for realisation in Poland between 2014 and 2020 – partly co-financed by the EU –, only a small amount thereof is likely to be awarded this year.
In Sweden, the housing market for project developments in Stockholm is exhibiting growth potential with stable margins; a series of large tenders is likely in the infrastructures sector, although stronger competitive pressure is expected due to the market entry of internationally operating construction firms.

The output volume in the segment South + East decreased to € 1,826.07 million in the first half of 2013, down 5 % versus the same period the previous year. A decisive factor was, among other things, the internal restructuring of the building construction business in Poland into the segment North + West; growth of the output volume was reported in Hungary and the Czech Republic. While the revenue decreased by 11 %, the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) improved to € -61.78 million after € -78.69 million in the first six months of the previous year. Decisive factors behind this development included the stabilisation of the environmental technology business as well as the continued considerable competitive pressure in railway construction.
The order backlog fell by 16 % to € 4,281.47 million. This was influenced by developments in Romania, where a new order to build a laser research centre in Bucharest was unable to fully compensate for the completion of several large projects such as the Deva–Orăştie motorway section, as well as by the aforementioned restructuring in Poland. Accordingly, the number of employees in the segment decreased by 7 % to 20,454; however, declines were registered in nearly all other markets as well.
The management board continues to expect to generate an output volume of approx. € 5.0 billion in the segment South + East in the 2013 financial year. In general, however, the price pressure in transportation infrastructures in Central and Eastern Europe will continue to last. Especially in the Czech Republic, in Romania and in the Adriatic region, few large projects are being awarded at this time, which is leading to tough competition on the price. A more positive outlook, on the other hand, is offered by the field of transportation infrastructures in Slovakia, where several large motorway and expressway projects are currently being tendered, as well as in the building construction business in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. Here, a slight improvement of the climate can be observed among private clients, although the price levels have so far remained near the limit of profitability.
Austria paints a mixed picture: From the vantage point of the present, the shifting competitive landscape resulting from the insolvency of a competitor is unlikely to result in a reduction of margin pressure in the transportation infrastructures business or in the Austrian states. In the greater Vienna area, meanwhile, STRABAG continues to see itself faced with a stable environment in which it was possible to selectively acquire certain construction projects that had become available following the competitor's insolvency.
In Hungary, stabilisation is becoming apparent at a low level: investments from international industrial groups are growing slightly and the long-awaited large projects in road construction are now finally coming up for tender. Older projects continue to have a negative impact, however.
In Switzerland, STRABAG merged most of its companies, so that a uniform brand presence is now possible. The reorganisation, which is now largely complete, had become necessary due to the strong growth experienced by the group in Switzerland in the past few years.
The railway construction business will remain characterised by overcapacities in Germany in the future; additionally, the long winter means that large equipment has been hardly used this year. In the RANC1) region, acquisition efforts are shifting from building construction in metropolitan areas in Russia to industrial projects and to large projects in countries such as Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan.

The segment International + Special Divisions registered a decline of the output volume by 8 % to € 1,232.84 million in the first half of 2013, for the most part due to the discontinuation of a large project in Poland. The revenue fell by 21 %, as last year's figure had included a large infrastructure project in Poland. The earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) failed to exceed € 1.65 million after € 36.87 million in the comparison period of the previous year. This development is due to the usually volatile business in the segment especially in the international business and in tunnelling.
The order backlog sank by 15 % to € 3,749.94 million: large projects were completed in the international business and considerable orders in Chile, in Thailand and in Oman were not yet booked. In the home market of Germany, on the other hand, the order backlog was bolstered by an order to build a new government building in Potsdam under a public-private partnership (PPP) model. The number of employees grew by 4 % to 21,109, almost exclusively as a result of three orders acquired in Africa in the previous year.
The company expects to just barely achieve the planned 2013 output volume of € 3.0 billion in the segment International + Special Divisions. The earnings are likely to remain satisfactory, even if the price level is ruinously low in some areas. STRABAG has observed that competition in tunnelling in Austria, in Germany and in Switzerland is increasingly being carried out on the price.
The market for concession projects in Europe also remains a challenging one. Competitive pressure is on the rise and, especially in Eastern Europe, the sector is facing political and financial hurdles. PPP Building Construction, on the other hand, is benefiting from a number of projects in the preparation and tendering phase in Germany in particular. The market for PPP measures in building construction should therefore continue to grow, especially due to the observation of growing interest on the part of institutional investors to provide long-term capital for PPP projects. The client realises efficiency advantages from an integrated solutions approach, i.e. from the consideration of lifecycle costs. STRABAG is moreover in a position to completely cover all specifications in this area, thanks to the inclusion of specialist providers from within the group such as STRABAG Property and Facility Services. Property management in particular is contributing to stable development of this service subsidiary in 2013; STRABAG had acquired a residential property management company last year and has been able to develop this business within the group.
The price pressure in the European core markets requires STRABAG to diversify more broadly regionally. In addition to selected countries in East Africa, the company's current foreign markets include Oman, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar. In Canada – the Niagara Tunnel Project was successfully concluded here in March –, Columbia, the United Kingdom and India, STRABAG has been working on new order opportunities in the area of concession and infrastructure projects. Looking at specific construction segments, the conclusion of a partnership agreement with mining company Rio Tinto marked the group's entry into the mining business. STRABAG is also successfully offering specialty construction services around the world in pipe jacking (a tunnelling technique), test track construction, and in the field of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
The construction materials business will continue to put pressure on the margins of the segment. In some countries, STRABAG has therefore ended its engagement in this business field. The market for concrete is stagnating at a low level. Although no improvement is in sight for stone and gravel in the coming two years, rationalisation measures in the cement business appear to be having an effect.

The consolidated semi-annual financial statements of STRABAG SE, based in Villach, Austria, with reporting date 30 June 2013 were drawn up under application of IAS 34 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) – issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) in London and recognised by the European Union – including the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) valid on the reporting date. Applied were exclusively those IASB standards and interpretations adopted by the European Commission before the reporting deadline and published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
In accordance with IAS 34, the consolidated semi-annual financial statements do not contain all the information and details required of annual financial statements. The semi-annual statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of STRABAG SE, Villach, with reporting date 31 December 2012.
The consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 31 December 2012 are available at www.strabag.com.
The following amended or new accounting standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013:
| Application for financial years which begin on or after (according to IAS B) |
Application for financial years which begin on or after (according to EU en dorsement) |
|
|---|---|---|
| IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement | 1.1.2013 | 1.1.2013 |
| IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements | 1.7.2012 | 1.7.2012 |
| IAS 12 Deferred Tax – Recovery of Underlying Assets | 1.1.2012 | 1.1.2013 |

| Annual Improvements to IFRS 2009-2011 | 1.1.2013 | 1.1.2013 |
The first-time application of the IFRS and IFRIC standards mentioned had secondary consequences on the semi-annual consolidated financial statements for the period ending 30 June 2013.
With exception of the above mentioned changes in the accounting and valuation methods the accounting and valuation are fundamentally based on the same accounting principles and valuation methods underlying the consolidated annual financial statements with reporting date 31 December 2012.
Information regarding the accounting and valuation methods can be found in the annual financial statements with reporting date 31 December 2012.
The establishment of the semi-annual report requires estimations and assumptions to be made which may influence the application of the accounting and valuation methods as well as the figures for the assets, liabilities, expenses and income. The actual results could deviate from these estimates.
The consolidated semi-annual financial statements as of 30 June 2013 include STRABAG SE as well as all major domestic and foreign subsidiaries where STRABAG SE either directly or indirectly holds a majority of the voting rights. Major associated companies are reported in the balance sheet using the equity method (investments in associates).
The number of consolidated companies changed in the first six months as follows:
| consolidation | equity method | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Situation as of 31.12.2012 | 321 | 21 | |
| First-time inclusion in the reporting period | 1 | 0 | |
| Merger in the reporting period | -9 | 0 | |
| Exclusion in the reporting period | -1 | 0 | |
| Situation as of 30.6.2013 | 312 | 21 |
The following company formed part of the scope of consolidation for the first time on the reporting date:
| Company Consolidation | direct stake % |
Date of acquisition |
|---|---|---|
| Merk Timber GmbH, Aichach | 100.00 | 22.4.2013 |
Per contract from 11 March 2013, STRABAG acquired 100 % of Merk Timber GmbH (former Metsä Wood Merk GmbH), Aichach, effective retroactively to 1 January 2013. The acquisition serves to expand the group's existing activities in the field of structural timber engineering. The closing took place on 22 April 2013.
The purchase price is preliminarily allocated to assets and liabilities as follows:
| ACquisition | |
|---|---|
| T€ | |
| Acquired assets and liabilities | |
| Goodwill | 1,835 |
| Other non-current assets | 2,352 |
| Current assets | 5,617 |
| Current liabilities | -2,952 |
| Purchase price | 6,852 |
| Acquired cash and cash equivalents | -393 |
| Net cash outflow from the acquisition | 6,459 |
Assuming a fictitious initial consolidation on 1 January 2013 for the acquisition in the reporting period, the consolidated revenue would amount to T€ 5,165,150 and consolidated profit would have changed by a total of T€ -913.
The company which was consolidated for the first time in the reporting period contributed T€ 4,789 to revenue and T€ -240 to profit.
As of 30 June 2013, the following companies were no longer included in the scope of consolidation:
| Companies | |
|---|---|
| Astrada AG, Subingen | Merger |
| Baunova AG, Dällikon | Merger |
| Brunner Erben AG, Zurich | Merger |
| Egolf AG Strassen- und Tiefbau, Weinfelden | Merger |
| Meyerhans AG Amriswil, Amriswil | Merger |
| Meyerhans AG, Strassen- und Tiefbau Uzwil, Uzwil | Merger |
| Polski Asfalt Sp.z o.o., Pruszkow | Merger |
| R I M E X GmbH Servicebetriebe, Aalen | Merger |
| riw Industriewartung GmbH, Ulm | Merger |
| Züblin International Malaysia Sdn. Bhd., Kuala Lumpur | Fell below significant level |
Deconsolidation led to an insignificant disposal of assets and liabilities.
The same methods of consolidation and principles of currency translation were applied in drawing up the consolidated semiannual financial statements with reporting date 30 June 2013 as were used for the consolidated annual financial statements with reporting date 31 December 2012. Details regarding the methods of consolidation and principles of currency translation are available in the 2012 annual report.
Due to snow, ice and other adverse weather conditions, revenue is usually lower in the winter months than in the summer. As the largest part of the costs involves fixed costs, noteworthy losses are posted in the first quarter every year. Starting with the second quarter, these losses are compensated for by rising contribution margins. The break-even point is usually not yet reached before the end of the second quarter. The largest portion of the earnings is expected in the third and fourth quarters. Seasonal fluctuations in the Transportation Infrastructures business are greater than they are in Building Construction & Civil Engineering.
The above-described, annually repeating business trend allows a year-on-year comparison of output volume, revenue and results of the respective quarters.
Interest income from concession contracts which is included in other operating income is represented as follows (also see notes on receivables from concession arrangements):
| 1.1.–30.6.2013 T€ |
1.1.–30.6.2012 T€ |
|
|---|---|---|
| Interest income | 34,590 | 35,281 |
| Interest expense | -17,271 | -18,473 |
| Total | 17,319 | 16,808 |
Goodwill assets are subjected to an annual impairment test in accordance with IAS 36. The impairment test is carried out in the last two months of the financial year.
In 1-6/2013, a total goodwill from capital consolidation on the basis of the preliminary purchase price allocations in the amount of T€ 1,835 was capitalised and no impairments were made.
In 1-6/2013, tangible and intangible assets in the amount of T€ 172,490 (1-6/2012 T€ 215,741) were acquired.
In the same period, tangible and intangible assets with a book value of T€ 7,924 (1-6/2012 T€ 30,880) were sold.
On the reporting date, there were € 63 million (30 June 2012 € 112 million) in contractual commitments for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment which were not considered in the financial statement.
STRABAG has a 100 % interest in the Hungarian M5 Motorway Concession Company AKA Alföld Koncessizios Autopalya Zrt., Budapest (AKA).
In the concession agreement with the Hungarian state, AKA committed to develop, plan, finance and build and operate the M5 motorway. The motorway itself is the property of the state; all vehicles and equipment necessary for motorway operation are to be transferred to the state free of charge following the end of the concession period.
In exchange, AKA will regularly receive an availability fee, independent of transit volume, from the Hungarian state for making the motorway available to the public. AKA bears the operator's risk of motorway closure and non-compliance of contractually agreed roadway criteria.
The route totals 156.5 km and was built in three phases. The concession period runs until 2031. A one-time extension for up to 17.5 years is possible.
All services provided under this concession contract are accounted for under the separate balance sheet item "Receivables from concession arrangements". The receivables are carried at the present value of the payment to be made by the state. The annual accumulation amount is recognised in "Other operating income".
A part of the availability fee consists of interest adjustment payments of the Hungarian state. As a result, the state bears the interest risk from the financing of AKA. These interest adjustment payments represent an embedded hedging transaction which is measured separately in accordance with IAS 39.11. Presentation is made as a cash-flow hedge; as a result, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap are recognised directly in equity.
The market value of the interest rate swap in the amount of T€ -41,907 (31 December 2012 T€ -61,198) is also recognised as long-term receivables from concession arrangements.
Recognisable receivables from concession arrangements are offset by non-recourse financing in the amount of T€ 607,305 (31 December 2012 T€ 630,311), classified either as a current or non-current liability depending on the term. The resulting interest expense is recognised in "Other operating income".
The fully paid-in share capital amounts to € 114,000,000 and is divided into 113,999,997 no-par bearer shares and three registered shares.
The changes in equity are shown in the statement of changes in equity.
The company has accepted the following guarantees:
| 30.6.2013 T€ |
31.12.2012 T€ |
|
|---|---|---|
| Guarantees without financial guarantees | 903 | 903 |
Furthermore, there is a derived credit risk arising from the financial guarantee contracts (guarantees issued) of T€ 88,215 (31 December 2012 T€ 56,019).
The rules of IFRS 8 Operating Segments apply to the segment reporting. IFRS 8 prescribes defining the segments and reporting the earnings on the basis of the internal reporting (Management Approach).
Internal reporting at STRABAG is based on the dedicated management board functions North + West, South + East and International + Special Divisions, which represent the group's operating segments. The operating segments were restructured effective 1 July 2012. For better comparability, the previous year's figures were adjusted to reflect the new structure. In addition, there are the central business units and central staff units, which handle services in the areas of accounting, group financing, technical development, machine management, quality management, logistics, legal affairs, contract management etc. These services are included in the segment Other.
The settlement between the single segments is made at arm's-length prices.

Income and expense in the internal reporting are shown essentially in accordance with IFRS. An exception is income taxes, including those applicable to deferred tax, which are not considered in the internal reporting.
The basis for the internal reporting is formed by all subsidiaries. In the IFRS financial statements, earnings from companies which were not fully consolidated respectively reported using the equity method are recognised in conformity with dividends, transfer of earnings and/or depreciation and amortisation. For this reason, the internal reporting does not conform 100 % with EBIT respectively profit before tax in the consolidated financial statements in terms of the investment result.
Other minor differences result from the other consolidation entries.
Reconciliation of the internal reporting to IFRS Financial Statements is allocated as follows:
| 1.1.–30.6.2013 T€ |
1.1.–30.6.2012 T€ |
|
|---|---|---|
| Investment income | 18,765 | 18,466 |
| Other consolidations | -4,775 | -4,986 |
| Total | 13,990 | 13,480 |
With exception of the financial liabilities the book value of the financial instruments corresponds to the fair value. The fair value of the financial liabilities amounts to T€ 1,813,535 on 30 June 2013 (31 December 2012 T€ 1,671,524) compared to the recognised book value of T€ 1,786,450 (31 December 2012 T€ 1,649,984).
