Share price development in 2008
Following a weak start to the year, equity markets also failed to gain much ground over the course of the first quarter. The reasons for this weakness were continuing uncertainties about the effects of the subprime crisis. The weak US dollar and extremely high raw-material prices exacerbated the capital market’s reticence.
Bilfinger Berger’s share price fell more sharply than the overall market and sector at the beginning of the year, without any company-specific reasons. But following the publication of the preliminary results for the year 2007, investors’ interest in our shares bounced back. The announcement of new acquisitions and the start of the share buyback program provided additional impetus. At the beginning of May, the share price was 9% higher than at the end of 2007 and was well above the development of the DAX and MDAX in the period.
