Increases in sales in French conglomerate Bouygues’ construction and Equans divisions partially offset a sharp fall in its residential division in 2024.
Bouygues’ full-year sales totalled €56.8 billion, up 1% year on year.
The company, which also has a telecoms division, reported 2024 current operating profit of just over €2.4 billion, up from €2.1 billion in 2023.
Work installing solar farms, data centres, high-tech facilities, and hospitals helped drive a 2% sales in its Equans arm.
Bouygues’ construction division increased sales 6% year on year thanks to a strong performance in the international building segment.
But its residential development business recorded a sharp fall in sales of 17%,.
The construction businesses, which include Colas, Bouygues Construction, and Bouygues Immobilier, boasted a record order book of €32.2 billion as of the end of 2024, up 13% year on year.
Bouygues said it was targeting a “slight increase” in sales and profit in 2025 versus 2024, amid an “uncertain global environment”.
