Eiffage's Board of Directors met on 27 August 2025 to approve the financial statements for the first half of 2025(1) .

Revenue

The Group's consolidated revenue for the first half of 2025 totalled €11.93 billion, an increase of 7.5% in actual terms (up 4.3% lfl) compared with the first half of 2024.

Contracting saw growth of 8.4% to €10.02 billion (up 4.5% lfl). Revenue rose by 2.7% (up 2.6% lfl) to €5.76 billion in France and by 17.2% in other countries to €4.26 billion (increase of 17.4% in Europe excluding France), following on from the trend seen in previous semesters. More than 42% of Contracting is now done outside France, having risen steadily over the last five years.

In the Construction division revenue increased by 0.6% (up 0.5% lfl) to €1.94 billion, with growth of 0.8% in France and 0.2% international. Property development revenues fell by 24.5% to €228 million, against a backdrop of new housing crisis in Europe, amplified during the first semester by the launch of developments sold in blocks being spread out over the year. A total of 916 homes were sold compared with 810 in the first half of 2024.

The order book stood at €5.4 billion at 30 June 2025, down 2% year-on-year. This only includes part of the multi-year activity generated by the Nové contract with the French Ministry of the Armed Forces.

In the Infrastructure division, revenue rose by 8.2% (up 7.6% lfl) to €4.30 billion. France saw an increase of 3.7%, with disparities depending on the business unit (Eiffage Génie Civil up 11.3%, Eiffage Métal down 18.3% and Eiffage Route up 2.5%). Revenue continued to grow in other countries, up 13.5% (Eiffage Génie Civil up 8.9% and Eiffage Métal up 25.1%) thanks to an ongoing strong performance in Europe excluding France (up 16.4%) in major energy and transportation infrastructure programmes. HSM Offshore Energy is consolidated as of 1 June 2025.

The order book stood at €15.4 billion at 30 June 2025, up 3% year-on-year. HSM Offshore Energy's order book has been included in the first half of the year, representing €0.6 billion.

Thanks to a dense European network, the Energy Systems division revenue increased by 13.2% (up 3.2% lfl) to €3.77 billion, with growth of 3.2% in France (up 2.7% lfl) and 28.7% in other countries, including an increase of 27.2% in Europe excluding France (up 1.3% lfl). Acquisitions in this region contributed to 25.8% of this growth, including 21.4% in relation to Germany (Eqos and IFT).

The order book is up 9% year-on-year at €8.7 billion.

Concessions revenue rose by 3.1% to €1.91 billion. Motorway traffic was robust, with growth of 2.2% at APRR relative to the first half of 2024, 11.7% at Aliaé (A79), 4.3% for the Autoroute de l'Avenir motorway in Senegal, and 1.7% for Adelac (A41). Aliénor (A65) saw a 0.4% fall relative to the first half of 2024, while the Millau viaduct was down 2.5%.

Lille and Toulouse airports traffic was down 1.5% relative to the first half of 2024 (with a fall of 1.9% at Toulouse and stable traffic at Lille).

The Group achieved a 6.9% increase in revenue in the second quarter relative to the same period in 2024, with growth of 7.6% in Contracting and 3.2% in Concessions.

(1): audit procedures have been performed and the report on the limited review of the financial statements has been issued.

Results

Operating profit on ordinary activities rose slightly to €1,006 million (up €9 million relative to the first half of 2024), despite the increase of €60 million in the share-based payment expense (Ifrs 2) following the sharp rise in the Eiffage share price during the subscription period for the annual capital increase reserved for employees. This represents an operating margin on ordinary activities of 8.4%.

In Construction, operating margin was stable at 3.4% despite the state of the new build market in France (residential and commercial properties) and the reduced contribution from property development. This attests once again to the resilience of the Group's integrated construction/development model and the relevance of the division's selective approach.

In the Infrastructure division, operating margin – which is usually negative in the first half of the year for Eiffage Génie Civil and Eiffage Route – was -0.2% (vs. -0.3% in the first half of 2024), still buoyed by the strong performance of Eiffage Métal and major transportation infrastructure projects in Europe.

The Energy Systems division operating margin improved substantially to 4.9% (vs. 4.6% in the first half of 2024) against the backdrop of a favourable market trend in Europe, particularly in energy transportation infrastructure projects, which the company capitalised on fully thanks to its most recent acquisitions.

Overall, Contracting operating margin improved to 2.4% (vs. 2.2% in the first half of 2024), bringing the contribution of Contracting to total operating profit on ordinary activities for the first half of the year to €241 million compared with €207 million in the first half of 2024 (an increase of 16.4% compared with revenue growth of 8.4%).

The Concessions business generated operating profit on ordinary activities of €845 million, an increase of €23 million. As of 2024, this includes the new tax on long-distance transportation infrastructure projects (€61 million). Operating margin was 44.2% (vs. 44.3% in the first half of 2024), with APRR achieving an EBITDA margin of 72.1% (vs. 72.3% in June 2024). The deterioration in margin for the Concessions business (operating margin for the segment and EBITDA margin for APRR) is solely due to the higher share-based payment expense, atypical in 2025.

Other operating income and expenses represent a net expense of €24 million compared with €18 million in the first half of 2024.

Cost of net debt is under control at €159 million, down €5 million.

Income from associates (companies consolidated under the equity method) includes €31 million in relation to Getlink.

At a constant rate of taxation, net income attributable to the Group would have been €391 million. The corporation tax expense includes a €135 million one-off contribution for large businesses applicable in France in 2025, most of which was accounted for in the first half of the year. This had an impact on net income Group share (after minority interests) of €83 million.

Net income attributable to the Group therefore totalled €308 million compared with €382 million in the first half of 2024.

Financial position

Free cash flow – which is structurally low in the first half of the year – was slightly negative (-€91 million) due to a more pronounced seasonal variation in the working capital requirement this year in Contracting and increased growth investment in Concessions (new infrastructure projects).

The acquisitions of the semester represented a €205 million investment (€23 million net of the cash of the companies acquired).

Net debt stands at €9.9 billion, a reduction of €0.7 billion over 12 months, as free cash flow generation over the period was used to finance major investments in growth (in particular the acquisition of Eqos at the end of 2024). The net cash position of the holding company and Contracting divisions improved to around €0.6 billion (compared with €0 as at 30 June 2024).

Eiffage cancelled shares in the first half of the year at the same time as carrying out a rights issue reserved for employees. Treasury shares made up 1.8% of share capital as at 30 June 2025 compared with 2.6% as at 30 June 2024 and 5.8% as at 31 December 2024.

Financing

The Group benefits from a solid financial position at the level of Eiffage SA (and its Contracting subsidiaries), with a short-term rating of F2 from Fitch, as well as its concession-holding entities, the largest of which is APRR, rated A/Stable by Fitch and A-/Stable by S&P.

Eiffage SA and its Contracting subsidiaries had a cash position of €4.5 billion as at 30 June 2025, comprising €2.5 billion of cash and cash equivalents and an undrawn bank credit facility of €2 billion with no financial covenants. This facility matures in 2030, with two possible extensions of one year each. Eiffage SA's cash position is up €0.7 billion relative to 30 June 2024.

APRR had a cash position of €3.3 billion as at 30 June 2025, comprising €1.8 billion of cash and cash equivalents and an undrawn bank credit facility with no financial covenants of €1.5 billion. This facility matures in 2030, with two possible extensions of one year each. APRR's cash position has increased by €0.1 billion relative to 30 June 2024.

On 19 May 2025, APRR successfully carried out a new €0.5 billion bond issue maturing in January 2031 with a coupon of 2.875%.

Supporting the environmental transition

Eiffage published its sixth climate report in the first half of 2025, illustrating the progress made by its business lines and countries in terms of climate change mitigation, the circular economy and protecting ecosystems and biodiversity.

The Group has also launched a marketplace encouraging manufacturers represented on the platform to ramp up management of their environmental impact by producing life cycle analysis. Significant progress has been made, with 40,000 products listed, 1,000 orders per month and 60 partner manufacturers and distributors engaged.

As part of the "Businesses Committed to Nature" (Entreprises Engagées pour la Nature) initiative, the French Biodiversity Agency (OFB) has performed an interim review of the Group's 2023-2025 biodiversity action plan. The progress made so far by the plan in achieving the 186 actions was deemed satisfactory, and its monitoring of the plan's implementation was deemed exemplary.

2025 outlook

The Contracting order book stood at €29.5 billion as at 30 June 2025, an increase of 4% year-on-year (up 2% since the start of the year), representing 17.4 months of Contracting revenue. This includes €0.6 billion from the acquisition of HSM Offshore Energy.

The Group therefore confirms its outlook for 2025:

  • In Contracting, revenue should rise in all segments. A further increase is expected in operating profit on ordinary activities, primarily on the back of improvement in profitability at Eiffage Énergie Systèmes, which will reach operating margin on ordinary activities of 6% and revenue close to €8 billion.
  • In Concessions, a slight increase is expected in revenue and operating profit on ordinary activities.
  • Finally, net income attributable to the Group, up at a constant rate of taxation, will be affected by the oneoff corporation tax contribution applicable in France in 20252 . Improvement in operating performance will not be enough to make up for this impact.

2 Applied to the 2024 financial year, this one-off contribution would have been around €205 million, representing an impact of €130 million on net income attributable to the Group.

Post Closing events

The main announcements since 30 June 2025 concern:

  • Eiffage Énergie Systèmes is consolidating its presence in Spain with the acquisition of CVS, M3i Controls and Inmotechnia for close to €75M of revenues in 2024.

  • Eiffage Énergie Systèmes realised over the first half of 2025 an order intake worth nearly €950 million in Germany.

  • Eiffage Construction has been awarded the design-build contract for the new Frontex headquarters in Warsaw, Poland.

  • Eiffage Concessions has been selected to build and operate the new headquarters of the Port of Marseille Fos.
