01/02/2009Annual Report 2009
In a highly adverse economic environment, with a 3.6% drop in Spains GDP, in 2009 FCC earned a net profit of over 300 million euro, after subtracting taxes and the portion attributable to minority shareholders. Thanks to the timely measures taken by the Governing Bodies, FCC has successfully weathered the worst of the crisis, which we date to the first half of 2009, and is facing 2010 and following fiscal years with moderate optimism. This optimism is based on the strength of our balance sheet and our business portfolio, which is growing increasingly large and increasingly diversified in terms of markets and activities.
