CONSOLIDATED GROUP PERFORMANCE.
Sales as of 31 December 2015 were €1,283.6 million compared to €1,447.1 million in 2014 with a decline mainly driven by moderate progress in some projects, and the impact of the Brazilian Real devaluation.
At December 2015 the EBITDA Margin stood at €166 million, 13% ahead of year 2014.
The Company’s Profit before Corporate Tax hit €60.4 million at 31 December 2015 against € 80.5 million reported in 2014.
This amount includes a significant year-on-year expenditure increase primarily owing to exchange variations from the Brazilian Real devaluation, and higher financing costs of the Brazilian affiliates.
The Net Year Profit after Corporate Tax at 31 December 2015 was reported at € 42.6 million.
