LEADERSHIP POSITION CONFIRMED. NUMEROUS BUSINESS SUCCESSES IN GROWING MARKETS
Total consolidated revenue amounted to 28,620 million versus 25,570 million in 2005, up 11.9% at current exchange rates.
Veolia Environnement continued its expansion in all its business sectors, which all posted double-digit growth. In municipal outsourcing, the company won new contracts in the Water division in the Czech Republic, Slovakia (winning the first calls for tenders launched in that country), the Middle East and Asia, in the Environmental Services (waste management) division in the United Kingdom and Asia, in the Energy division in Italy and France, and in the Transport division in the United States. Moreover, the company recorded many successes in the industrial field in France as well as in China, the United Kingdom and Germany. In addition, Veolia Environnement made targeted acquisitions, leading to growth and cost synergies, in particular, the purchase of Cleanaway in the waste management business in the United Kingdom and several small companies in the transportation sector in the United States.
FURTHER IMPROVEMENT IN PROFITABILITY
Recurring operating income increased by 16.7% at current exchange rates (up 16.4% at constant exchange rates) to 2,222.2 million versus 1,903.6 million in 2005. This increase resulted from growth in business, the continuous improvement in productivity and the greater degree of maturity in the portfolio of contracts built up over the last few years. The recurring operating margin continued to show significant improvement, up to 7.8% in 2006 from 7.4% in 2005. Operating income rose to 2,132.9 million versus 1,892.9 million in 2005, up 12.7% at current exchange rates, taking into account exceptional provisions booked in the transportation business in Germany.
Growth in recurring operating income by division was as follows:
|
Veolia Water's recurring operating income rose by 16.3% at constant exchange rates to 1,163.4 million.
In France, operating income benefited from the good performance of the distribution and works businesses.
In Europe, operating performances on existing contracts in the United Kingdom and the launch of new contracts notably in Germany and Central Europe, paved the way for a further improvement in profitability. Income in Asia and in the Africa/Middle East zone accelerated significantly during the year. Lastly, profitability in the engineering and technological solutions businesses showed strong improvement. |
|
Veolia Environmental Services' (the waste management division) recurring operating income increased 17.6% at constant exchange rates to 648.3 million.
In France, the operating performance continued to improve.
Outside France, the robust growth in operating income resulted, in the United Kingdom, from the very good performance on integrated contracts (Hampshire and the start-up of the new Sheffield incinerator notably) and the consolidation of Cleanaway in the fourth quarter of the year. In North America, results benefited from the good performance of the solid waste, industrial services and waste-to-energy businesses. |
|
Veolia Energys recurring operating income rose 16.2% at constant exchange rates to 377.7 million.
In France, margins remained stable despite the unfavorable weather conditions in the fourth quarter.
Outside France, the contribution from Central European countries (Poland and the Czech Republic) grew significantly.
The positive contribution from sales of surplus greenhouse gas emission rights offset the pricing pinch linked to the rapid rise in energy prices in some countries. |
|
Veolia Transports recurring operating income declined 14.4% at constant exchange rates to 100.1 million. Operating income amounted to 13.6 million.
In France, profitability improved in particular in the urban business and in the Greater Paris Area and because of the consolidation of SNCM that made a contribution in line with the company's market plan.
Outside France, performances were satisfactory in Benelux and Australia, while the rapid growth in North America was impacted by new contract start-ups and reorganization costs. In Nordic countries, the turnaround plan continued to be implemented. A decision was made to sell the business in Denmark, leading to its adjustment to market value and its accounting treatment as a discontinued operation.
In addition, given the difficulties encountered in certain contracts in Germany during the starting phase, an impairment charge and exceptional provisions totaling 86.5 million lowered the contribution from operating income of the Transport division to 13.6 million. |
In addition to the growth and increased maturity of contracts, the good operating performance benefited from the impact of the efficiency plan. The plan resulted in
102 million in net and recurring additional savings, including 84 million at the operating income level. All in all, accordingly, the efficiency plan has led to 406 million in cumulative recurring savings in three years versus the initial target of 300 million.
CONTROL OF FINANCING COSTS
In 2006, the cost of net financial debt decreased, falling from 710.7 million in 2005 to 701.0 million in 2006. In 2005, the cost of net financial debt included a specific 26 million expense stemming from the early redemption of a bond. Adjusted for this item, the cost of borrowing remained stable as compared with 2005 at 5.07% in 2006.
Other financial expenses totaled 34.0 million in 2006 versus financial income of 28.1 million in 2005, notably due to the impact of the revaluation of derivatives included in some contracts.
STRONG INCREASE IN NET INCOME
Driven by the combined effect of good operating results and tight control of borrowing costs, consolidated recurring net income rose to 762.0 million in 2006 versus 630.2 million in 2005, an increase of 21%.
Recurring non-diluted net earnings per share amounted to 1.93, up 21.4%.
Net income reached 758.7 million in 2006 compared with 622.2 million in 2005. Net income in 2006 included net non-recurring items that totaled -3.3 million. These included, in particular, a 52.5 million net capital gain on the disposal of Southern Water shares, negative impacts of 51.9 million related to the planned sale of the transportation business in Denmark and 86.5 million linked to the impairment charge and provisions booked in Germany for the Transport division, and a positive impact of 86.2 million from the restructuring of the US tax group.

STRONG CASH FLOW GENERATION
Cash flow from operations before tax and interest expense(1) from continuing operations (2), came to 3,852.4 million versus 3,537.6 million at December 31, 2005, an 8.9% increase that reflects the growth of the business, the maturity of contracts and efforts made to improve productivity.
After taking into account the repayment of operating financial assets (438.1 million versus 320.6 million at December 31, 2005), total cash generation was 4,282.5 million versus 3,862.5 million, a 10.8% increase. The company, furthermore, continued its active asset management policy and disposed of assets and equity interests amounting to 354.9 million.
Thus, the cash flow generated was able to cover financial expenses and current tax, all maintenance capital expenditures (1,411 million), current growth and development capital expenditures that totaled 1,010 million and the new operating financial assets
(361 million), as well as the change in working capital requirement resulting from growth in business. Free cash flow before major new projects (3) came to 901 million versus 555 million in 2005.
The company continued to pursue its growth by investing in major new projects and targeted acquisitions which together amounted to 1,424 million. A significant part, in particular, was used to purchase Cleanaway in the United Kingdom and the Biffa subsidiary in Belgium in the waste management business, acquire the holding companies linked to the Kunming and Liuzhou contracts (China) and finance the costs incurred in winning the Poprad and Banska Bystrica (Slovakia) contracts in the water business, acquire companies in Italy in energy services as well as companies acquired in the transportation business: SNCM (France), Shuttleport and Supershuttle (United States) and Dunn Line (United Kingdom).
After these investments and the dividend payment, net financial debt (4) at December 31, 2006 was 14.7 billion compared with 13.9 billion at December 31, 2005, primarily due to the acquisition of Cleanaway in the United Kingdom.
The company financed all its growth while improving its financial structure: the ratio of net financial debt / (cash flow from operations + repayment of operating financial assets) improved and stood at 3.4x at December 31, 2006 versus 3.6x at December 31, 2005.
IMPROVEMENT IN THE AFTER-TAX RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED (TANGIBLE AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS): 10.8%, OBJECTIVE MET ONE YEAR AHEAD OF SCHEDULE
In line with the objectives set by the company, the after-tax return on capital employed further increased from 10.2% in 2005 to 10.8% in 2006, due to the combined impact of the increased maturity of contracts, the continued efforts to drive efficiencies and the control of capital employed.

Following the Board of Directors meeting, Veolia Environnement Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Henri Proglio stated:
"The performances posted in 2006 confirm the soundness of the strategy consistently implemented by the Company over the course of the last few years. The complementary nature of its businesses, its geographical positioning, its technological and social expertise, strengthen Veolia, day after day, in its role as the global leader in environmental services."
DIVIDEND
Taking into account the results, the Board of Directors has decided to propose a dividend per share of 1.05, representing an increase of 23.5% to the Annual Shareholders Meeting to be held on May 10th, 2007.
OUTLOOK
For 2007, Veolia Environnement has the following objectives: revenue growth of between 8% and 10%, a further increase in recurring operating income and net recurring operating income and the dividend, while keeping its after-tax return on capital employed for tangible and intangible assets stable after taking into account the growth of the company.
In the medium-term, Veolia Environnement has an objective of continuing its development in each of its businesses and growing its revenue at a similar pace. Such growth is based on the organic growth of existing contracts, new contracts won in robust markets in the geographical zones deemed to be priorities: Europe, North America and some countries in the Asia-Pacific region and in the Middle East, and on a selective policy of value-creating acquisitions in the environmental sector. This growth strategy will continue to be pursued within the framework of a rigorous investment policy consistent with the profitability criteria previously set by the company.
