As a Multi Service Group, we want to further strengthen our strategic advantages primarily through the expansion of our services business. We have the financial lattitude necessary for acquisitions.We are also counting on organic growth which, in view of the high rates of growth in 2007 and the degree to which our capacities are currently being utilized, will flatten out slightly. Furthermore, we want to invest in high-yield privately financed concession projects in the future, too. In the construction business we are striving to achieve a sustainable increase in profitability.
In the current year we plan an increase in output volume and further growth of EBITA and net profit. From 2009, in the Civil business segment, we want to achieve an EBITA margin of 2.5-3%, in the Building and Industrial business segment we have set a goal of 1.5-2% and in the services business we want to achieve a sustained EBITA margin of over 5%.
Our shareholders will participate in the Company’s growing success through an attractive dividend distribution. With a return on capital employed above our cost of capital, we want to once again create substantial value added also in the future.
