BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

Management report
Operating in 80 countries worldwide, Bouygues Construction is a global player in the building,
civil works, energy and services markets. It has recognised know-how at all stages of a project,
from nancing and design to construction, operation and maintenance.
Its 55,000-plus employees develop and implement effective and innovative solutions that enhance
people's quality of life and protect the environment.

GROWTH STRATEGY
AND OPPORTUNITIES
Bouygues Construction is continuing to
pursue growth in the most buoyant regions
of the world, offering its customers comprehensive and innovative solutions, especially
in energy and environmental performance.
Its strategic growth priorities are complementary.
HIGH VALUE-ADDED PROJECTS
Over the last 20 years, Bouygues Construction
has developed high-level expertise in publicprivate partnerships and concessions, completing over a hundred projects in France and
around the world. In the property development
segment, it draws on a network of specialist
rms in France and other European countries
and on specic investment funds, especially
for BBC low-energy and HQE (High Environmental Quality) buildings.
SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION
Sustainable construction is how Bouygues
Construction puts its sustainable development policy into practice. Through eco-design,
the company can offer solutions that deliver
effective environmental and economic performance throughout a building's lifetime. The
approach is gradually being extended to neighbourhood and city level. From design to operation, Bouygues Construction companies
enter into contractual commitments to meet
performance targets set jointly with their customers and partners.

ENERGY AND SERVICES


Bouygues Construction's energy and services
businesses enable the company to take positions on promising energy-performance markets and to offer full-service solutions that
generate recurring long-term income. The company is also strengthening its positions in hightechnology segments such as broadband,
very-high-speed services and data centres.
ETDE is being renamed Bouygues Energies &
Services in 2013 to better assert its position
as a full-service operator and its complementarity with Bouygues Construction's designbuild activities.
INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
Bouygues Construction operates on international markets on a long-term basis through
local subsidiaries or on one-off major projects.
The two approaches are complementary and
give the company the necessary exibility to
mobilise its resources quickly on high-potential
markets. As a result of this strategy, Bouygues
Construction generates half its sales on international markets.

STRENGTHS
Bouygues Construction has many strengths
to draw on in all its lines of business:
an international presence and experience of managing complex projects:
motivated people with high-level technical
skills enable the company to meet the needs
of its public and private customers and make
the most of future opportunities;

a robust nancial situation and good


performance: over the last ten years,
Bouygues Construction has demonstrated its
capacity to generate revenue growth while
preserving protability, backed up by a healthy
and robust nancial situation;
the capacity to adapt to changing
markets: the value and depth of its order
book give the company visibility that enables
it to promptly adjust costs and concentrate
investment on the most buoyant markets;
a policy of controlling operating and
nancial risks: strict application of procedures at all levels of the company guarantees
that the right projects are selected and carried
out smoothly.

OUTLOOK FOR 2013


In a still-tough economic climate, Bouygues
Construction has set its sales target for 2013
at 10.7 billion, 1% higher than in 2012.
Bouygues Construction enjoys good visibility,
backed up by:
orders at 31 December 2012 to be
executed in 2013 worth 8.5 billion, covering 79% of forecast sales;
sustained international activity outside
Europe, especially in places less affected by
the economic crisis, such as Hong Kong,
Singapore, Qatar and Canada;
a long-term order book (more than ve
years) worth 2.7 billion at 31 December
2012;
a sound nancial structure, with a net
cash surplus of 3.1 billion;

an expanding range of sustainable


construction products and services,
with strong energy and environmental performance commitments.
Tight control over the execution of major
projects, a selective approach to orders in the
face of competitive pressure and obtaining
nancing for future projects will continue to
be central priorities for Bouygues Construction
in 2013.

COMPETITIVE POSITIONING
Given the organisational structure of its direct
competitors, it is difcult to make like-for-like
comparisons between them and Bouygues
Construction. Based on the 2011 ranking published by trade magazine Le Moniteur in
December 2012, Bouygues' construction
businesses arm (Bouygues Construction,
Bouygues Immobilier, Colas) is the second
largest in Europe after Vinci's Contracting division, ahead of the Spanish rm ACS (consolidated with Hochtief from June 2011) and the
French contractor Eiffage. In the ENR ranking
for 2011, Bouygues' construction businesses,
represented by its three business areas, made
it the fourth-largest international construction
rm, based on the share of sales generated
on international markets.
In a French building and civil works market worth
about 200 billion according to a Euroconstruct
estimate in December 2012, Bouygues Construction (excluding Bouygues Energies & Services) is one of the top three French contractors
ahead of Eiffage Construction and behind Vinci
Construction (2011 ranking published by the
trade magazine Le Moniteur in December
2012). The market also includes many small
and medium-sized rms. In energy and services,
Bouygues Energies & Services is in sixth place
after GDF Suez nergie Services, Vinci nergies,
Dalkia, Spie and Eiffage nergie (2011 ranking
published by the trade magazine Le Moniteur
in December 2012).

RECORD COMMERCIAL ACTIVITY, A


ROBUST OPERATING MARGIN AND
A SOUND FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
A RECORD ORDER INTAKE: 11,976M
Order intake in 2012 rose 9% versus 2011 to

a record 11,976 million and included 15


contracts worth over 100 million each (nine
on international markets), three of which were
worth over 300 million.
Order intake in France rose 5% to 7,199 million, boosted by the conclusion of two major
public-private partnership (PPP) projects: the
Paris law courts complex and the NmesMontpellier railway bypass.
On international markets it rose 16% to
4,777 million, driven by the order for a section of the bridge linking Hong Kong to Macao
and more generally by commercial successes
in countries less hard-hit by the economic
crisis, such as Switzerland, Thailand and
Canada. It was also boosted by the integration
of Thomas Vale in the UK.
Buildings with environmental certification
accounted for 57% of the order intake, compared with 55% in 2011.
GROWTH IN THE ORDER BOOK (UP 12%)
The order book rose by 12% year-on-year to
stand at 17.1 billion at year-end, with international markets accounting for 45% of the
total. Orders to be executed in 2013 amounted
to 8.5 billion. An increase in the mediumand long-term end of the order book gives
greater visibility, especially in energy and
services activities. At the end of 2012, the
order book for execution beyond one year was
therefore up 16% year-on-year
ROBUST SALES GROWTH:
10,640M (UP 9%)
Sales rose by 9% in 2012 to 10,640 million,
with building and civil works accounting for 86%
and energy and services for 14%. Both France,
where sales increased 5% to 5,612 million, and
international markets, up 13% to 5,028 million,
contributed to this growth, accounting for 53%
and 47% of sales respectively.
Outside France, sales were boosted by the
acquisition in 2011 of Leadbitter, consolidated
from the second quarter of 2011, and Thomas
Vale, the acquisition of which was completed
in June 2012. Both these transactions were
carried out in the UK.
Like-for-like and at constant exchange rates,
sales rose by 4%.

A RISE IN NET PROFIT: 267M (UP 18%)


Current operating prot remained satisfactory
at 364 million, 11 million more than in the
previous year, a rise of 3%, yielding an operating margin of 3.4%, down 0.2 points. Financial
income, at 33 million, remained at the same
level as in the previous year, despite the
decline in income from net surplus cash which
was due to the impact of the fall in the interest
rates on Bouygues Construction's cash surplus. After a tax charge of 129 million, net
prot attributable to the Group rose sharply
to 267 million in 2012, representing 2.5%
of sales.
A VERY SUBSTANTIAL CASH SURPLUS:
3,093M (UP 224M)
Bouygues Construction had a net cash surplus of 3.1 billion at end-2012, 224 million
more than in 2011, thus further strengthening
its robust nancial structure.

DEVELOPMENTS IN BOUYGUES
CONSTRUCTION'S MARKETS
AND ACTIVITIES
The world's construction needs remain at a
very high level, especially for urban amenities,
energy infrastructure, schools and universities, and cultural and leisure facilities.
In industrialised countries, Bouygues
Construction takes advantage of its expertise in partnership contracts (design, build,
operate) to offer customers increasingly
competitive solutions for complex major
projects. Markets in emerging countries are
more buoyant due to factors such as high
growth rates and sovereign wealth funds,
holding out attractive prospects for Bouygues
Construction's businesses. The company
can rapidly mobilise its resources on highpotential markets, as demonstrated by the
major contracts concluded in Asia in 2012.
Demand for sustainable construction is more
or less mature depending on the country. It is
well-advanced in France, where the government plays a key role in stepping up efforts to
make both new and renovated buildings more
energy-efcient, and in several other countries
of Western Europe (UK and Switzerland),
North America (Canada) and Asia (Singapore,

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

Hong Kong). Where countries are less


advanced in this sphere, Bouygues Construction takes a proactive stance, especially in
promoting the environmental certication of
its projects.

BUILDING AND CIVIL WORKS


Sales in the building and civil works segment rose to 9,099 million, 10% higher
than in 2011 (8,300 million* in 2011).
Sales amounted to 4,525 million in France
and 4,574 million on international markets
(80 countries).

during the year, highlights Bouygues Construction's ambitious environmental


approach.
Private renovation and construction activity
also ourished, both in the residential segment (handover of the Suresnes-Sentou
residential complex) and the commercial
segment (Lumen new office project at
Montrouge), as well as mixed-use projects
such as the transformation of Laennec
Hospital in Paris into ofces and housing
and the Fort d'Issy eco-neighbourhood in
Issy-les-Moulineaux.

In civil works, Bouygues Construction has


regional agencies all over France that specialise in smaller-scale civil engineering projects
and earthworks. In addition to its core business, the company also carries out complex
major projects like ongoing civil engineering
works for the Flamanville EPR nuclear power
plant and LNG storage tanks in Dunkirk.
Another commercial highlight of 2012 was the
order, in the framework of a PPP, for the
Nmes-Montpellier railway bypass project. It
will be France's rst shared-track high-speed
line, carrying both freight and passengers.

FRANCE
With a slightly higher level of activity than in
2011, the French market was one of the most
resilient in Western Europe.
In the Paris region, public and private investment in residential property remained
steady, with private investment encouraged
by the Scellier tax incentive scheme, amongst
other factors, which ended in December
2012. Activity was also sustained by major
infrastructure projects, many of them
awarded in recent months within the framework of the Grand Paris project.
In the rest of France, the building market is
still under pressure and projects are tending
to become smaller. Difculties in raising
nance make the conclusion of large-scale
projects longer and more complex. Prospects for growth exist, notably with the
approach of municipal elections in 2014,
which should boost civil works, and the
increase in municipalities' obligatory social
housing quota mandated by the Urban
Solidarity and Renewal Act.
2012 SALES: 4,525M (UP 5%)
Bouygues Construction's building activity in
the Paris region was sustained by the major
amenity projects booked in 2011, such as
the Beaugrenelle shopping centre, the Paris
Philharmonic Hall, the Paris Zoological Park
and the French Ministry of Defence. The
National Archives building at Pierrette-surSeine, begun in 2009 and handed over

Commercial activity was sustained by public-sector orders, especially PPPs such as


the Paris law courts complex and the SaintQuentin-en-Yvelines Velodrome, orders for
which were booked in early 2012.
Despite difculties related to the economic
crisis, orders remained rm for both privatesector renovation projects, especially in the
commercial segment (The Ritz Paris Hotel,
Tour Athna in La Dfense, Quai Le Gallo
ofces in Boulogne-Billancourt) and new-build
projects (Saussure-Cardinet ofce complex in
Paris, Val de Bivre complex at Gentilly).
Elsewhere in France, Bouygues Construction's ve regional building subsidiaries
held up well in a depressed economic environment. The construction of amenities,
especially public hospitals, helped to cushion the decline in activity. Bouygues Construction handed over the Metz-Thionville
hospital in 2012 and work continued on the
Amiens-Picardie and Orlans hospitals. The
ongoing reconguration of the Velodrome
Stadium in Marseille is a showcase example
of Bouygues Construction's expertise in the
construction of leisure facilities and the
execution of works on sites in use.
The order for the Cit Municipale in
Bordeaux, a positive-energy building to
house the city's municipal services, illustrates Bouygues Construction's energy performance commitments.

EUROPE
The construction market in Europe continued
to contract in 2012.
In Western Europe, Bouygues Construction
subsidiaries are particularly active in the UK,
where the market is worth 158 billion, and
in Switzerland (50 billion). In the UK,
budget pressures have crimped public-sector
investment, while the civil works market,
buoyed in 2011 by preparations for the
London Olympics, has agged since then.
The construction market in Switzerland is
rm, especially for housing, boosted by historically low interest rates.
Investment capacity in Eastern Europe has
suffered from a decrease in EU funding
and a tightening of national budgets. Infrastructure needs are still considerable,
however, holding out bright prospects for
the medium term.
2012 SALES: 1,979M (UP 8%)*
In the UK, Bouygues Construction, which
already has an extensive presence in London
and the south of England, strengthened its
coverage. The acquisition of Thomas Vale
gives the company a foothold in the dynamic
Midlands region, while the acquisition of
Leadbitter has brought strong positions in the
south of England and in Wales. Commercially,
Bouygues Construction capitalises on its
school-building expertise. Three projects to
* 2011 sales restated, comparable to 2012

renovate schools while still in use were successfully completed during the year. Furthermore, the University of Essex, near Colchester,
has chosen the company to design and build
its new student hall of residence.
In the south of England, Bouygues Construction
took an order for the design and construction of
an up-market, three-tower complex in Southampton, while work on the Mary Rose
museum in Portsmouth neared completion.
Demand in Switzerland remained strong,
especially on the housing market. Bouygues
Construction took advantage of its expertise
in putting together major property development projects: the company continued work
on the Eikentt eco-neighbourhood in Gland.
Bouygues Construction also has acknowledged expertise in "multi-product" projects
including ofces, shops, housing and leisure
facilities, as illustrated by the complexes currently under construction in Monthey, Thun
and Zurich. The company continued to expand
in the German-speaking part of the country,
winning a contract to build ofces for the
Swiss post ofce in Bern.
In Eastern Europe, Bouygues Construction
has acquired a number of well-established
local rms in recent years, notably in Poland,
Hungary and the Czech Republic, which continued to expand their building activities.
Elsewhere in Europe, Bouygues Construction
is also involved on a one-off basis in major
infrastructure projects such as the new connement shelter for the damaged nuclear
reactor at Chernobyl in Ukraine, which is being
built in partnership with Vinci.

economy benets all sectors, especially


construction. Attractive possibilities also
exist in some other emerging regions, though
the risk factor is high.
2012 SALES: 1,469M (UP 31%)
In Hong Kong, the Civil Aviation Department
headquarters building was handed over. Activity was sustained by major projects begun in
2011, including the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal
building and two sections of the rail tunnel for
the Hong Kong to Guangzhou high-speed rail
link. The commercial highlights of 2012 were
orders for a section of the gigantic bridge linking Hong Kong, Zhuhai and Macao and for the
Trade & Industry Tower.
Bouygues Construction remains a recognised player on the Asian building market,
especially for high-rise structures. Major
residential complexes are under construction
in Singapore. In Bangkok, the company has
taken orders for three residential towers in a
highly desirable business neighbourhood
and for the Mahanakhon tower which, on
handover in 2015, will be the highest in the
Thai capital and a historic record for
Bouygues Construction. Work continues on
the Singapore SportsHub, the world's largest
sports-related PPP project.
In Turkmenistan, activity was sustained by
ongoing work on projects booked in 2011,
including a turnkey five-star hotel, the Finance
Ministry and renovation of the Rukhiet Palace,
completed during the year. In early 2013,
Bouygues Construction took orders for the
Congress Centre and Theatre and Concert
Centre in the capital, Ashgabat.

AFRICA MIDDLE EAST


ASIA
Construction markets in Asia are particularly
buoyant, with continuing high growth rates
sustained by effective government intervention. Bouygues Construction benets from
its position as a long-standing player in Hong
Kong, though local and foreign competition
is intensifying. Thailand, where growth was
hit by the oods in 2011, is now experiencing
an economic revival. Singapore's thriving

Economic growth has dipped in North Africa,


due in particular to a drop in tourist revenue at
the time of the Arab Spring and the deteriorating
economic situation of the euro zone, on which
North African countries depend for much of
their trade. Sub-Saharan Africa has resisted the
global economic downturn, with the exception
of South Africa. However, transport infrastructure needs and the exploitation of natural
resources make this a high-potential region.

Oil-exporting Middle Eastern countries are


taking advantage of high oil prices to step
up their investment in major infrastructure
projects. Qatar in particular is investing in
preparation for the FIFA World Cup which
will be taking place there in 2022.
2012 SALES: 711M (DOWN 7%)
In Africa, Bouygues Construction's building
and civil engineering rms work together on
major infrastructure projects.
In Equatorial Guinea, Bouygues Construction
has taken an order to build a portion of the
Bata seafront road as part of the government infrastructure modernisation programme. The company is also continuing
to build the national headquarters of the
Bank of Central African States at Malabo
and a two-lane motorway linking Bata to the
east of the country.
In Morocco, work is continuing on the
second container port in Tangier. Line 3 of
the Cairo metro in Egypt was completed
during the year.
In Ivory Coast, Bouygues Construction started
work on the Riviera Marcory bridge in Abidjan,
which it will also operate. The project will be
one of the rst concessions in West Africa.
In South Africa, the last section of the tunnel
for the Gautrain, a fast rail link between
Johannesburg, Pretoria and Johannesburg
International Airport, came into service.
In the Middle East, Bouygues Construction
is involved in complex major projects such
as the Hodariyat bridge in Abu Dhabi
(United Arab Emirates), handed over in
early 2012, and the Qatar Petroleum District, a vast complex that includes nine highrise office buildings, currently under
construction in Doha.

AMERICAS CARIBBEAN
The economic situation in the Americas is
contrasted, differing very considerably from
one country to another. Some markets
seem to be riding out the economic storm
better than others. Bouygues Construction
is involved in major facilities and infrastructure projects in the region (Canada, Cuba).

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

2012 SALES: 414M (UP 45%)


Bouygues Construction has long-term operations in Cuba, where it is a recognised specialist in the construction of turnkey luxury hotel
complexes. In 2012, the company took orders
for luxury hotel complexes on Laguna del Este
on Cayo Santa Maria and on Cayo Coco.
In Jamaica, the last section of Highway 2000
came into service, illustrating Bouygues
Construction's involvement in the development of the country's road and motorway
network over a number of years.
At Baluarte in Mexico, Bouygues Construction
completed its work on the world's highest
cable-stayed bridge.
In Canada, Bouygues Construction handed
over the Royal Canadian Mounted Police headquarters in Surrey and won the contract to
build a set of sporting facilities in Ontario for
the 2015 Pan American Games.
In the United States, work is continuing on the
Miami port tunnel within the framework of a
35 year public-private partnership.

ENERGIES AND SERVICES


ETDE was renamed Bouygues Energies &
Services on 1 January 2013 to better assert
its position as a full-service operator and its
complementarity with Bouygues Construction's
design-build activities.
Bouygues Energies & Services contributed
1,541 million to Bouygues Construction's
consolidated sales, 3% more than in 2011
(1,502 million*). Bouygues Energies &
Services has three business lines: network
infrastructure (52% of sales), electrical and
HVAC engineering (25%) and facilities management (23%).
Demographic growth, spreading urbanisation
and increasingly scarce raw materials mean
that energy and environmental performance is
a central concern. Fast-growing telecommunications needs have also increased demand for
network infrastructure. These two key trends on
the energy and services markets offer Bouygues
Construction sources of growth, both in the
countries where it has most of its operations
(France, the UK, Switzerland and Canada) and
in emerging countries, especially in Africa.

In France, the market in very concentrated.


Short-term economic uncertainties remain
due to pressure on central and local government budgets, affecting network infrastructure works in particular, and the difculty of
raising private nance, especially for commercial property projects and public-private
partnerships. The situation is aggravated by
erce price competition on a highly concentrated market.

FRANCE
2012 SALES: 1,087M (UP 3%)
Bouygues Energies & Services, through its
network infrastructure subsidiary, is a leading
player in the development of digital networks
in France and is involved in 15 public service
delegations, representing 12,000 km of optical bre serving 6.5 million people. The contract awarded in 2011 for the development
and management for 25 years of the broadband and very-high-speed network in the
Vaucluse dpartement in the south of France
is now under way.
Bouygues Energies & Services won a 20-year
public lighting contract in Valenciennes, in
northern France, and is continuing the contracts begun in 2011, especially the major
energy performance contract with the City of
Paris that aims to achieve a 30% reduction
in the city's energy consumption by 2020 in
comparison with the level in 2004.
In electrical and HVAC engineering,
Bouygues Energies & Services has completed work on the Metz-Thionville hospital,
handed over in 2012, and is continuing work
on the Amiens-Picardie hospital. Work is also
continuing on the Pantin data centre, for
which the order was booked in 2011.
In partnership with Bouygues Construction's
building subsidiaries, Bouygues Energies &
Services' facilities management subsidiary
is involved in a number of PPP contracts,
including the maintenance and operation of
the French Ministry of Defence and the Paris
law courts complex, the Cit Municipale in
Bordeaux and the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines
Velodrome.

INTERNATIONAL
2012 SALES: 454M (UP 3%)*
Bouygues Energies & Services is continuing
to expand in its three main lines of business
in Europe (especially in the UK, Switzerland
and Hungary), in Africa (Congo, Gabon) and
in North America (Canada).
On international markets, Bouygues Energies
& Services is an expert in major turnkey electricity network infrastructure projects. Its subsidiary in the segment started work on two
new contracts in 2012: a second direct-current
line in Finland and a high-voltage, rural electrication and public lighting project in the
north of Gabon.
In electrical and HVAC engineering, Bouygues
Energies & Services is involved in complex
projects like the Eneld data centre in the UK.
In Canada, Bouygues Energies & Services
has a 30-year facilities management contract for Surrey Hospital and a 25 year contract for the RCMP headquarters. Both in
France and internationally, facilities management contracts guarantee Bouygues
Energies & Services recurring long-term
income.

RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY


The risks facing the Bouygues Construction
group in 2012 were of the same nature as
those identied in previous years: operational
risks relating to major projects, country risk,
recession-related risk and compliance risk.

INTERNAL CONTROL
EVALUATION OF INTERNAL CONTROL
For the second successive year, the selfassessment campaign covered extended
organisational and functional scopes. This
campaign addressed 15 common themes
(eight covering general principles, and seven
covering accounting and nancial principles), chosen to reect the key issues for the
Bouygues Construction group (legal compliance, information systems, treasury, etc). All
entities took part, so as to ensure a uniform
approach across the Group.
In addition, each entity had the option of adding
* 2011 sales restated, comparable to 2012

10

extra themes to its own assessment, and of


dening its own scope for deployment. Overall,
the campaign involved over 600 people in
around 100 entities or units. The average
number of principles assessed was 180 at
entity level, and 150 at prot centre level.
The self-assessment campaign was conducted during the spring, with summary
reports presented in the autumn. The data
collected were used to compile findings
about the effectiveness of internal control
within Bouygues Construction, and to
develop and implement action plans with a
view to constantly improving the internal control system.
Each entity developed its own action plan. At
Bouygues Construction level, managers of the
support functions and centres of excellence
are overseeing action plans for the common
themes, broadening and deepening actions
already in progress:
Legal compliance: the rollout of the ethics
policy continued in 2012, with ethics and compliance training programmes deployed at
entity level, and the phased integration of
these issues into existing managerial and
commercial training.
Information systems: the aim is to continue, enhance and strengthen security
based on the components of ISO 27000:
implementation of the information systems
security policy, tightening access controls
(especially for critical applications), and protection of sensitive data.
Treasury: the introduction of a treasury
management tool and a bank cash pool is
ongoing, with the objective of achieving tighter
control over treasury management and the
risk of payment instrument fraud.
Accounting and nancial control: within the
context of the rollout of the Groups new
accounting and nancial information system,
the objectives here are to manage segregation
of duties via tighter authorisation controls and
to monitor mitigating controls.
The results of the 2012 self-assessment
campaign showed progress in acceptance
of the internal control approach and grow-

ing maturity among the teams responsible


for implementation in all entities.
By providing feedback and pooling their
results, those involved are helping internal
control to become a training, team-building
and management tool. The experience gained
from successive campaigns will improve the
practices of those involved, which in turn will
enhance the effectiveness of internal control.
RISK MAPPING
Risk mapping is now integrated into the
Bouygues Construction management cycle as
part of the strategic plan. It is also submitted
to the Accounts Committee and the Board of
Directors.
This management process provides a shared
vision of major risks at both entity and Group
level, with the aim of constantly improving control over these risks. In addition, synergies
between risk management, internal control and
internal audit can deliver added value in terms
of the organisations control processes. For
example, the 2013 audit plan includes assignments that are more closely targeted at the key
risks identied by the mapping process.
The risk mapping campaign was conducted
in the spring of 2012. The work done at entity
level was supplemented by contributions from
the support functions; this was used as the
basis for preparing the risk mapping for the
Bouygues Construction group as a whole.
As part of the campaign, key risk factsheets
which identify action plans were updated.
RESOURCES DEPLOYED
The internal control rollout strategy adopted
by Bouygues Construction reects the Groups
decentralised structure, and the decision to
rely on strong and highly-structured support
functions. The control environment has been
adapted accordingly:
Role of the Bouygues Construction
holding company
Project management is handled by a dedicated team within the Legal Affairs, Audit and
Internal Control directorate. The holding company plays the lead role in the process, co-

ordinates the self-assessment campaigns,


and provides methodological support to the
entities. It also prepares the Group-level summary report, monitors transverse action
plans, and drafts Group-level risk mapping.
Role of the entities
Within the entities, internal control is the
responsibility of the General Counsel. Each
entity compiles its own risk mapping, and
presents it as part of the strategic plan. Internal control correspondents are responsible for
the evaluation process; this includes monitoring progress on the self-assessment campaign
and drafting the summary report.
Within operational units, the General Counsel
is responsible for onward deployment.
Role of the support functions
The support functions bind the process
together, building on the work done at entity
level. Managers of the support functions and
centres of excellence are responsible for
approving certain principles; they also prepare
a summary report, and monitor transverse
action plans. Most of the support functions
also carry out risk mapping (accounting and
nancial control, information systems, legal
affairs, purchasing).
Training and awareness programmes
A wide range of training and awareness campaigns ran alongside the campaign: implementation of a computerised internal control
self-assessment application, training for
respondents and approvers, discussion
forums and feedback meetings, committee
meetings and seminars at support function
level, and regular reporting to the Executive
Committees.
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL
INTERNAL CONTROL
The entities have specic resources in both
accounting and nancial control. Accounting
teams may be centralised or decentralised,
depending on the circumstances. Financial
controllers present at every level of the
organisation work closely with operational
managers. Both functions operate on the
double reporting principle.
The nancial control function (over 900 staff)
is headed up by the Financial Control and

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

Accounting Director, to whom the Chief


Accountant (responsible for the accounting
function, with over 600 staff) reports.
Both functions have a role in deploying and
adapting the Groups accounting and nancial
information system, and in reducing the leadtimes to publication of accounting and nancial information.
An internal control campaign launch day was
held in May 2012, and feedback meetings
were held with various entities in late October.
The 2012 campaign provided an opportunity
to revisit the key accounting and nancial
themes such as compliance with accounting
rules, organisation and security of information
systems, and preparations for the accounting
close. Overall, the scores achieved point to
good levels of control in these various areas.
Going forward, the accounting and nancial
control teams remain committed to achieving
further progress.

OPERATIONAL RISKS
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MAJOR
PROJECTS IN THE DESIGN AND
EXECUTION PHASES
Major projects are a potential source of risk
for Bouygues Construction because of their
size and number. They frequently involve complex packages (public-private partnerships,
concessions, long-term contracts), for which
risk allocation must be tailored to the capacities of the company.
The types of risk inherent in major projects
include:
in the design phase: design error, budget
underestimation, poor assessment of the
local environment, and inadequate contractual analysis;
in the execution phase: business failure of
a customer, partner or subcontractor, difculty
in recruiting sufficient staff or adequately
qualied staff, and execution defects leading
to cost overruns, quality problems or failure to
meet deadlines.
To achieve tighter control over these two

11

major risks, Bouygues Construction operates


an organisational structure that reects the
specific requirements of each business,
backed up by rigorous approval and control
procedures.
Each entity has access to substantial, highlyqualied resources in technical elds such as
design, costing, feasibility studies and methods. Clusters of staff with extensive expertise
in highly specialised areas (high-rise buildings,
materials engineering, facades and sustainable construction, for example) share knowledge and capitalise on experiences across all
Bouygues Construction entities.
Support functions are organised on similar
lines, with separate departments covering
legal affairs, human resources, accounting,
management control, information systems
and procurement, all headed up by members of the Bouygues Construction management team. Specialist clusters dedicated to
treasury management, nancial engineering, tax and insurance provide expertise to
all group entities.
Approval and control procedures apply at each
key stage in design and execution. For major
projects, project selection and key risks are
subject to systematic monitoring.
Key operational risks are further mitigated by
the fact that project execution teams are highly
professional and adequately-staffed, and are
actively supervised by experienced managers.
Design and execution processes are documented in management systems at operational unit level, and are subject to various
measures designed to enhance performance
and control:
Particular attention is paid to the pre-execution phase of major projects, especially in
design, contract drafting and site preparation.
In the design phase, external consultants
are used to back up in-house expertise on
technical issues for the highest-risk projects.
Regular costing audits are performed to
check the reliability of procedures for

expenses, subcontractor budgets, and site


supervision costs.
Support functions are always involved
upfront, especially in contract management
and procurement.
Particular care is taken in the selection and
monitoring of customers and partners.
The subcontracting process is closely
supervised, with major subcontractors and
partners thoroughly assessed ahead of the
awarding of highly-sensitive work packages
(architectural, technical trades, etc.).
Risk monitoring is assisted by the use of
specically-developed procedures and tools.
Specic areas of focus during 2012 included:
providing leadership to the Project Management and Worksite supervisory functions;
management of temporary workers and
measures to combat illegal employment;
tightening of procedures in contractual
management and operational planning.
No signicant operational risks materialized
during 2012. However, two projects are subject to special attention: the Gautrain project
in South Africa, and the Miami tunnel project
in the United States. For a description of the
current status of these projects, see the claims
and litigation section.
COUNTRY RISK
Bouygues Construction generates 53% of its
business in France and 77% in OECD countries.
Outside these areas, the risks to which
Bouygues Construction is exposed are of two
types: political/social and economic/nancial. Political and social risks include those
deriving from governmental actions such as
embargoes, asset seizures or the freezing of
bank accounts, and from general strikes or
civil disturbances. Economic and nancial
risks include currency devaluation, currency
shortages or payment default.
Bouygues Construction uses a variety of
means to limit these risks. Thorough investigations are conducted before prospecting for
business in a new country. It is company
policy to suspend commercial activities in

12

regions with a particularly serious political risk,


and not to prospect for business in the highestrisk countries (in particular those experiencing
serious civil or military unrest, or subject to
United Nations embargo). The company also
operates preventive legal, nancial and insurance measures. These include systematically
halting projects in the event of non-payment,
favouring the use of multilateral international
nancing, and obtaining political risk insurance whenever it is available on the market on
satisfactory nancial terms.
The Quality, Security and Environment departments are becoming increasingly involved in
regular reviews of the security situation in the
countries in which Bouygues Construction
operates, in liaison with the Bouygues group
security department.
Regularly-updated business continuity plans
are also in place. A key aim of such plans is
to safeguard people, in particular by ensuring that guidelines issued by French embassies in at-risk countries are strictly followed,
and by liaising with the embassies to develop
evacuation plans for various alert levels. In
addition, exible and responsive organisational structures mean that in exceptional
circumstances, Bouygues Construction can
withdraw resources from countries where
such risks materialise while keeping its
losses to a minimum.
The political disturbances that marked 2012
in many countries had only a limited impact
on the companys business and personnel.
Bouygues Construction continues to monitor
very closely the situation in a number of African countries (Nigeria, Mali, Ivory Coast, and
the Democratic Republic of Congo).
RECESSION-RELATED RISK
The European construction sector is operating in a degraded macroeconomic environment, especially with the euro zone recently
moving into recession, and will continue to
face difculties throughout 2013 in most
market segments.
Bouygues Construction, which generates 74%

of its sales in Europe, achieved sales growth


during 2012 both in France (where the construction market in the Paris region remains
very lively) and in the United Kingdom (via the
acquisition of Thomas Vale).

revenue prospects. Bouygues Construction


uses forecasts to anticipate adverse trends,
so that it can react appropriately and reallocate production resources to less affected
markets or activities.

Despite healthy levels of activity, market


prices remain under pressure, and there is
a growing risk of a slowdown in orders from
the public sector.
Like many companies in the industry, Bouygues
Construction is nding it increasingly difcult
to obtain the investment and bank nancing to
secure complex transactions.
In addition to the risk of a sharp downturn in
activity during the three-year plan, Bouygues
Construction may be faced with specic oneoff problems connected with delays to or the
abandonment of projects, and difculties in
obtaining payment for ongoing projects. Moreover, the counterparty risk to which Bouygues
Construction is normally exposed (customers,
subcontractors, suppliers, etc.) could increase
signicantly.
Nevertheless, the company has many
strengths to help it resist and adapt to the
economic climate. A diverse business mix and
broad geographical footprint mean that it is
less exposed than a mono-line or mono-region
business.

Finally, Bouygues Construction encourages


job mobility between businesses and geographical areas and the development of
synergies between Group entities, so that it
is always well placed to anticipate, react
and adapt to changes in the economic environment.

In addition, Bouygues Construction is still


exposed to a favourable business environment
in some countries or sectors. This applies to
the companys established markets in Asia
(Hong Kong and Singapore), but also to Central America (especially Cuba, where a growing tourist industry with good future prospects
is fuelling expansion in the hotel business).
Prospects are positive for certain industries,
such as open cast gold mines in Africa. The
company is also engaged in a geographical
diversication strategy, focusing on expansion
in buoyant markets (Australia, Canada) or in
zones experiencing robust economic development (Sub-Saharan Africa).
After stripping out long-term contracts
(beyond 2017), the order backlog represented 16.3 months of sales at end-December 2012, giving good visibility on short-term

COMMODITIES RISK
Bouygues Construction is not exposed to commodities risk.

INDUSTRIAL AND
ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS
Because of the nature of its business (which
is not subject to REACH regulations on classied sites), the Bouygues Construction group
is not exposed to signicant industrial or environmental risk.

LEGAL RISK
COMPLIANCE RISK
In a poor economic climate, compliance
breaches remain a significant risk for
Bouygues Construction.
Consequently, the ethics policy was deepened
in 2012. The training programmes that have
been in place for several years were supplemented by two new initiatives, spearheaded
by the legal department:
following on from the programs provided to
entity-level Executive Committees in 2011,
training programs in ethics and compliance
issues are being rolled out in each entity;
an ethics and compliance module is being
incorporated as standard in existing managerial and sales training programs.
CLAIMS AND LITIGATION
South Africa Gautrain Project
Bouygues Travaux Publics, in association with
two local partners and Bombardier (rolling
stock and electro-mechanical equipment),

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

delivered the rst phase of a large-scale rail


infrastructure project in June 2010 linking the
countrys principal airport to Johannesburg
and Pretoria. This phase has been in service
since this date.
Delivery of phase 2 has been disrupted by
disagreements between Bombela Ltd, the
concession company holding the contract, in
which Bouygues Travaux Publics owns a 17%
equity stake, and Gauteng Province, regarding
execution of the project works.
A problem arose in relation to the waterproofing of the tunnel in several sections of phase
2: water seepage levels were higher than
stipulated in the technical specifications,
according to Gauteng Provinces reading of the
contract. This disagreement was referred to
the Dispute Resolution Board (DRB) provided for in the concession contract. The DRB
found that the tunnel and its sealing against
water inow were in compliance with specications in all sections other than the Park
Station to E2 section.
Water seepage for this section was found to
be higher than the levels stipulated in the contract technical specications. Remedial works
were carried out to rectify this problem at end2011/beginning of 2012. As a result of this
issue, the line did not come fully into service
until 7 June 2012.
Gauteng Province is now challenging:
the validity of the DRBs nding as to the
compliance of the tunnel;
the effectiveness of the works required of the
contractors by the DRB, and now completed;
the conditions of the acceptance and certication of the transit system by the independent engineer.
The Province has appealed the DRB decision
to the Arbitration Foundation of South Africa
(AFSA). The other issues will also ultimately
be heard before the AFSA.
The parties have also referred a number of
other disputes to the AFSA; the principal dis-

13

pute relates to the consequences of delays by


the Province in expropriating the land needed
for execution of the works. These delays seriously disrupted execution of the contract, and
have had signicant nancial repercussions.
Proceedings are ongoing, and the initial hearings on these disputes will be held at the end
of 2013.
A further arbitration case relates to the construction of the Sandton Cavern station.
Bombela proposed a variant solution which
resulted in additional costs for Gauteng Province; this was disputed by the Province, given
that the construction contract was a xedprice contract. The AFSA has issued a ruling
that Bombelas demand was valid. Further
hearings are to be held by the AFSA during
2013 to determine whether the Province must
bear the additional costs, and if so how much.
France Flamanville EPR
Bouygues Travaux Publics was awarded the
civil engineering contract to build the European Pressurised Reactor (EPR) at the Flamanville nuclear power plant, which it signed
with EDF on 2 October 2006.
Technical difculties since execution of this
contract began have, in the past, already
prompted the parties to amend its terms and
conditions, in particular as regards price and
delivery date.
Under an addendum to the contract, signed
in 2011, an increase in the contract price
was agreed. This mainly covered difculties
encountered in the design and construction
of the metal liners of pools for some of the
reactors, and the cost of adapting construction methods (largely to reect the growing
complexity of reinforcement and concreting
works).
In addition, an industrial accident involving
a temporary worker employed by a subcontractor of the consortium responsible for the
works has led to a preliminary investigation
for involuntary manslaughter. Employees of
the consortium have been interviewed as
part of this investigation.

Finally, another investigation is ongoing into


suspected undeclared employment, illegal
use of temporary workers, and irregularities
in the reporting of industrial accidents. This
investigation covers members of the consortium responsible for civil engineering, and
various companies involved in the project.
Managers of the various parties involved in the
project have been interviewed.
France le-de-France Regional
Authority Contracts
Following a Competition Council (now Competition Authority) ruling of 9 May 2007, the
le-de-France Regional Authority led a compensation claim in 2008 as relief for losses it
claims to have incurred as a result of the anticompetitive practices of construction companies in connection with the awarding of public
works contracts for the renovation of secondary school buildings in the region.
The Regional Authoritys urgent application to
the Paris District Court was denied in a ruling
issued on 15 January 2009 on the grounds
that, prima facie, there were genuine reasons
for objecting to the very principle of the compensation claim.
Invited to revisit the substantive issues of the
claim, the Regional Authority led a further
application to the Paris District Court in February 2010, this time claiming damages for a
loss it estimated at 232,000,000 based on
the joint and several liability of the parties collectively responsible for the loss, i.e. the companies and individuals alleged to have
engaged in anti-competitive practices.
The construction companies involved, which
dispute both the reality and the amount of the
alleged loss, in turn applied to the Court to
compel the Regional Authority to disclose a
number of documents. This was so that the
decision-making process behind the award of
each of the contracts could be reconstructed
as precisely as possible, thus providing evidence of the alleged loss.
In an injunction dated 3 March 2011, the
Paris District Court ordered the Regional

14

Authority to individualise its claims (in terms


of loss suffered, and the contractor against
which the action is directed) for each of the
88 contract tranches involved in the case,
and to disclose archived documents not yet
adduced in evidence.
In an injunction dated 31 May 2012, the Paris
District Court admitted a request by the contractors to examine the potential inadmissibility of the Authoritys civil action on grounds of
limitation, before addressing the substantive
issues of the Regional Authoritys claim.
This decision demonstrates the seriousness of
the arguments advanced by the contractors.
France EOLE
Following a Competition Council (now Competition Authority) ruling of 21 March 2006,
imposing penalties on a number of companies for general collusion in sharing contracts and specic collusion on tranches 34B
and 37B of the East-West Express Rail Link
(EOLE) project, on 21 March 2011 SNCF
brought an action in damages before the
Paris Administrative Court seeking relief for
losses that it claims to have suffered as a
result of anti-competitive practices by construction companies when the project
tranches were awarded.
Bouygues Construction contests the reality of
the alleged loss suffered by SNCF, and it considers the action potentially time-barred.
USA Port of Miami Tunnel
Bouygues Travaux Publics was awarded a
contract to nance, design, build and maintain a major road tunnel in the port of Miami.
Before the tunnelling work started, Bouygues
Travaux Publics conducted additional geological surveys which showed signicant divergences from the geological data originally
supplied by the customer (Florida Department
of Transportation).
The customer was officially notified of the
results of these additional surveys, to inform it
of the likely alterations to tunnelling methods.

To ensure that the project progressed satisfactorily, Bouygues Travaux Publics immediately
undertook additional works involving (i) technical modications to the boring machine and
(ii) preparatory injection works to enable tunnelling to commence under optimal technical
conditions.
Simultaneously, Bouygues Travaux Publics
made a submission to the Dispute Resolution
Board (DRB) provided for under the concession contract, seeking (i) recognition that the
sub-soil description contained in contractual
documents supplied by the customer was
inaccurate and (ii) conrmation that the customer was liable for the financial consequences of this nding.
On 17 January 2012, the DRB issued an
immediately enforceable decision, the main
terms of which were:
The DRB disputed in principle that there
had been any change in the geological conditions compared to the geological data contained in the contract, and concluded that the
contractor should bear the cost of the technical modications to the boring machine.
The DRB accepted the need for the preparatory injection works carried out by the
company. The concession company, contractor and customer immediately entered into
negotiations to decide how liability for these
costs should be apportioned.
On 11 July 2012, Bouygues Travaux Publics
and the customer reached a preliminary
agreement on the terms for meeting the cost
of the additional injection works. Further negotiations based on this agreement resulted in
the signature of an addendum to the concession contract on 30 January 2013. The nancial effects of this addendum have been
recognised in the 2012 nancial statements.
United States patent infringement
action
Freyssinet Inc., a subsidiary of the Freyssinet
group, has brought an action in the Maryland
District Court against VSL International AG
and VStructural LLC, alleging infringement of

a patent relating to devices for anchoring


structural cable on cable-stayed bridges.
Freyssinet Inc. alleges that VStructural LLC, a
licensee of VSL International AG, infringed the
patent on a number of bridges on which it
worked. The VSL group contests the allegation. Negotiations towards an out-of-court settlement are ongoing.
Spain Decision by the Comisin
Nacional de la Competencia on 2
August 2012
On 2 August 2012, the Comisin Nacional de
la Competencia (CNC), the Spanish competition commission, issued a decision establishing the existence of anti-competitive practices
over several years involving a number of companies in the FCC, VSLI, Dywidag, Freyssinet,
Acciona, Ferrovial and other groups.
As regards companies in the Bouygues
Construction group, the CNC imposed a ne
of 2.4 million on CTT Stronghold and a ne
of 0.4 million on VSL Spain.
CTT Stronghold and VSL Spain have appealed
against this decision.
This claim has been covered by a provision in
the 2012 consolidated nancial statements.
France Paris Law Courts complex
The contractual documents enabling work to
start on the major project to build the new
Paris Law Courts complex were signed on 15
February 2012.
Justice dans la Cit, a not-for-prot organisation that intends to use all possible means to
prevent the relocation of the Paris District
Court to the Batignolles district in the 17th
arrondissement of Paris, has led a number
of claims with the Paris Administrative Court
challenging the legality of various administrative procedures relating to the project.
More specically, the claimant contests the
eligibility of the project for a public-private
partnership contract. The Paris Administrative
Court is due to deliver its ruling during the rst
quarter of 2013.

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

France Ministry of Defense building


at the Balard site in Paris
Execution of this contact began several
months ago.
In 2012, the Paris City Authority led two
claims seeking annulation of (i) the order
whereby the Prfet of the le-de-France
Regional Authority declared, in favour of the
French State, that the proposed construction of the Defence Ministry and Army High
Command complex in the Balard district of
Paris was in the public interest, and
amended the Paris City Authoritys local
development plan accordingly and (ii) the
order whereby the Prfet of the le-deFrance Regional Authority issued the building consent required for the project.
In a judgment issued on 21 February 2013,
the Paris Administrative Court rejected all the
claims made by the Paris City Authority.
The Paris City Authority has given notice of its
intention to appeal.
INSURANCE RISK COVERAGE
Bouygues Constructions policy on insurance
cover focuses on optimising and ensuring the
continuing validity of the policies contracted
for the company and its subsidiaries; the aim
is to protect against exceptionally large or
numerous potential claims at a cost that does
not impair the companys competitiveness.
This long-term approach to insurance cover
requires partnerships with high-quality, nancially sound insurers. To preserve these partnerships and prevent information being used
to the detriment of Bouygues Construction,
especially in legal disputes, the amount of premiums and the terms of cover are kept strictly
condential, especially in liability insurance.
In addition to insurance policies required by
law, Bouygues Construction also takes out
liability cover against loss or injury to third
parties for which Group companies may be
liable. Because Group companies vary greatly
in size and in the nature of their operations,

15

cover is tailored to the risks incurred, but is


generally in excess of 5 million per claim.
Permanent premises (like the headquarters
building, branch ofces, depots and workshops) are protected by comprehensive
insurance policies that provide cover up to a
contractual rebuild cost agreed with the
insurers on a maximum probable loss basis.
Projects in progress are usually covered by
contractors comprehensive insurance policies that provide protection for property
damage. The insured sum is generally the
market value.
However, in some cases, the insured sum
may be limited by the total capacity available
in the world insurance market, in light of
specic criteria such as geographical location, the type of project (e.g. tunnels), the risk
covered (e.g. storms or earthquakes), or the
nature of the cover (e.g. 10-year construction
guarantees for major building projects).
For all these contracts, deductibles are set
so as to optimise the overall cost to Bouygues
Construction, based on the likelihood of
claims and the premium reductions that can
be obtained from insurers by increasing the
deductible.
The refurbishment works being carried out at
the Challenger building near Paris are covered
by specic Damage to the Works and Contractors All Risks policies.
Finally, Bouygues Construction and its subsidiaries operate a prevent and protect policy,
including the development of new measures
to further reduce the incidence and nancial
effect of accidents and claims.

CREDIT AND/OR
COUNTERPARTY RISK
COMMERCIAL CREDIT AND
COUNTERPARTY RISK
The fact that our projects and prot centres
are structurally cash-positive is a fundamental
principle underpinning the nancial security

of our operations. Cash ow and nancial risk


projections are prepared for major projects
from the prospecting phase onwards, and are
regularly updated.
The quality and nancial soundness of sensitive customers, consortium members,
partners, suppliers and subcontractors is
closely analysed. Depending on the contractual and commercial context of a project,
we may:
require an upfront advance from the customer before works commence;
require the customer to provide bank guarantees against payments;
assign trade receivables without recourse;
take out export risk insurance (covering
against country risk and political risk);
take out credit insurance.
The Bouygues Construction group is not
exposed to any risk of dependency with a specic customer.
Subcontractors provide the lead contractor
with bank guarantees of a nature and scope
at least equivalent to those of the guarantees
provided by the Group to its customers.
In the case of ad-hoc consortia, temporary
allocations of cash between consortium
members are covered by bank guarantees
securing the return of the cash.
BANKING CREDIT
AND COUNTERPARTY RISK
Any investment of funds with a third party
requires the prior approval of the Treasury
Department, in terms of both the choice
of bank counterparty (based on an analysis of the banks rating) and the type of
instrument.
The main investment products used:
term deposits with a maturity of no more
than 6 months with high-grade counterparties;
pure money-market funds with daily
liquidity.
These investments are subject to review
and monitoring on a monthly basis.

16

No losses arose during 2012 on any of the


investment products used by the Group.
As of 31 December 2012, no single bank held
more than 10% of the Groups available liquidity. Over 90% of investments are placed with
counterparties rated investment grade or
better (minimum: Standard & Poors BBB+).
LIQUIDITY RISK
As of 31 December 2012, net cash amounted
to 3,610 million, and the Group also had
16 million of undrawn conrmed mediumterm credit facilities on that date. Consequently, Bouygues Construction is not exposed
to liquidity risk. The bank loans contracted by
the Group contain no nancial covenants or
trigger event clauses.

INTEREST RATE RISK


EXPOSURE TO INTEREST
RATE RISK
Interest rate risk exposure arises on variablerate debt recognised in the balance sheet, and
is hedged by variable-rate investments.
Bouygues Construction systematically negotiates upfront payments with customers before
starting work on a contract, and hence has a
substantial net cash surplus which is invested
in the short term in products that are sensitive
to interest rate movements.
INTEREST RATE RISK
HEDGING RULES
The only instruments that can be used for
interest rate risk hedging purposes are interest rate swaps, caps and collars. These
instruments are used solely for hedging purposes, are contracted solely with high-quality
French and foreign banks, and carry no
liquidity risk in the event of a downturn. Specic reports are prepared for those responsible for the management and supervision
of the relevant Group companies describing
the use of hedging instruments, the selection
of counterparties with whom they are contracted, and more generally, the management of exposure to interest rate risk.
Bouygues Construction group policy is to
hedge some or all of its nancial assets and
liabilities, where these are foreseeable and

recurring. Given Bouygues Constructions


level of debt and capital expenditure needs,
use of the nancial instruments listed above
is limited to hedging the companys risk
exposures.

CURRENCY RISK

rmed. Equity investments in foreign companies are usually hedged by a liability of a


similar amount in the same currency in the
books of the entity that holds the investment.

RISK RELATING TO EQUITIES AND


OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

EXPOSURE TO CURRENCY RISK


Bouygues Construction has low exposure to
currency risk in routine commercial transactions. Where possible, expenses relating to a
contract are incurred in the same currency as
that in which the contract is billed.
This applies to most construction projects
executed outside France, on which localcurrency expenses (sub-contracting and supplies) represent a much higher proportion
than euro-denominated expenses. Bouygues
Construction also pays particular attention
to risks relating to assets denominated in
non-convertible currencies, and to country
risk generally.

Bouygues Construction has no exposure to


equities risk.
Financial instruments may occasionally be
contracted to hedge a commodities risk,
provided that an appropriate instrument is
available on the nancial markets.

CURRENCY RISK HEDGING RULES


The only instruments that can be used for
currency risk hedging purposes are forward
currency purchases and sales, currency
swaps and currency options. These instruments are used solely for hedging purposes,
are contracted solely with high-quality French
and foreign banks, and carry no liquidity risk
in the event of a downturn. Specic reports
are prepared for those responsible for the
management and supervision of the relevant
Group companies describing the use of hedging instruments, the selection of counterparties with whom they are contracted, and
more generally, the management of exposure to currency risk and interest rate risk.

In compliance with Article 225 of the Grenelle


2 Law, Bouygues Construction is posting its
entire Corporate Social and Environmental
Responsibility (CSER) Report on the Internet.
It can be consulted in the Sustainable Development section of the www.bouygues-construction.
com website. The structure of the report is set
out below.

Bouygues Construction group policy is to


hedge systematically all residual exposure to
currency risk on commercial transactions
relative to the functional currency of a project
or entity. If the future cash ow is certain, the
currency risk is hedged by buying or selling
currency forward, or by means of currency
swaps. For some large contracts, options
may be taken out for hedging purposes
before the contract award has been con-

There have been no signicant events or changes in the scope

NOTE 2
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND VALUATION
METHODS UNDER IFRS
The consolidated nancial statements of the Bouygues Construction group for the year ended 31 December 2012 have
been prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) as endorsed by the European Union
(European Council Regulation 1606/2002 of 19 July 2002).
The term IFRS refers collectively to International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRSs), to International Accounting
Standards (IASs), and to interpretations of those standards
(SICs and IFRICs).
The Bouygues Construction group applied the same standards,
interpretations and accounting policies for the year ended 31
December 2012 as were applied in its consolidated nancial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2011, except for
new IFRS requirements applicable from 1 January 2012 (see
below) and the early adoption of the amendment to IAS 19.
These changes did not have a material impact on the consolidated nancial statements.
Principal new standards, amendments and interpretations effective within the European Union and mandatorily applicable or permitted for early adoption for
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012:
Amendment to IFRS 7: Disclosures Transfers of Financial
Assets (mandatorily applicable from 1 January 2012). This
amendment does not alter the existing accounting treatment of
securitisation transactions, but species the disclosure requirements for such transactions.
Amendment to IAS 1: Presentation of items of Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). Although the amendment to IAS 1 had
not been adopted by the European Union as of 31 December
2011, it was early adopted by the Group from 1 January 2011
since it was not in conict with pronouncements that had already
been endorsed. This amendment became effective within the

European Union on 6 June 2012 and is mandatorily applicable


from 1 January 2013.
Amendment to IAS 19, Employee Benets (published in
the Ofcial Journal of the European Union on 6 June 2012,
mandatorily applicable from 1 January 2013, early adoption
permitted from 1 January 2012). The Group has early adopted
this amendment in the consolidated nancial statements for
the year ended 31 December 2012. Given that the Group
already recognises in equity actuarial gains and losses on
dened-benet employee benet plans, applying this change
in method would have had an immaterial impact on net assets
as of 31 December 2011 and on net prot for the year then
ended. The negative impact on consolidated equity of 9 million
(net of deferred tax assets) relates primarily to a plan amendment that occurred in 2005, net of the amount already amortised through prot or loss under IAS 19 as previously applied.
IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 11
Joint Arrangements, IFRS 12 Disclosures of Interests in
Other Entities, IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements (as
amended in 2011), IAS 28 Investments in Associates and
Joint Ventures (as amended in 2011): These standards were
endorsed on 29 December 2012 and are mandatorily applicable from 1 January 2014. The impact of these standards,
which were not early adopted by the Group from 1 January
2012, is currently under review.
Amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes (Deferred Tax
Recovery of Underlying Assets) and IFRS 1, First-Time Adoption
of International Financial Reporting Standards (Severe Hyperination and Removal of Fixed Dates for First-Time Adopters),
and IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement: These pronouncements were endorsed on 29 December 2012 and are mandatorily applicable from 1 January 2013. They have no impact on
the nancial statements of the Bouygues Construction group.

AT PRESENT (pending)

*Unless otherwise indicated, applicable to accounting periods beginning on or after the date shown in this column.

The nancial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention, with the exception of certain items in
particular some nancial assets and nancial liabilities which
are measured at fair value.
Preparing nancial statements to comply with IFRS requires the
use of estimates and assumptions which may have affected the
amounts reported for assets and liabilities at the balance sheet
date, and the amounts of income and expenses reported for
the nancial year. These estimates and assumptions have been
applied consistently on the basis of past experience and of
various other factors regarded as reasonable forming the basis
of assessments of the valuations of assets and liabilities for
accounting purposes. Actual results may differ materially from
these estimates if different assumptions or conditions apply.
The main areas in which estimates and assumptions are
involved are the measurement of provisions and forecast data
regarding the completion of construction contracts in progress.

2.1 CONSOLIDATION METHODS


2.1.1 CONSOLIDATION METHODS AND SCOPE OF
CONSOLIDATION
Companies over which Bouygues Construction exercises legal
or de facto exclusive control are consolidated by the full consolidation method.
Companies controlled jointly by more than one shareholder
(joint ventures) are consolidated by the proportionate consolidation method.
Entities over which Bouygues Construction exercises signicant
inuence (associates) are accounted for by the equity method.

2.1.2 TRANSLATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF FOREIGN ENTITIES


The nancial statements of consolidated subsidiaries with a
functional currency other than the euro are translated at the
exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date (in the case
of the balance sheet) and at the average exchange rate for the
year (in the case of the income statement and cash ow statement). The resulting translation differences are taken to equity
under Translation reserve.
Translation differences arising on foreign-currency liabilities
accounted for as hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation are recognised in equity.
2.1.3 TRANSLATION OF TRANSACTIONS
DENOMINATED IN FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Entities that have the euro as their functional currency translate
foreign-currency transactions into euros at the exchange rate
prevailing on the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date
are translated at the closing exchange rate, with the resulting
translation differences recognised in prot or loss for the period.
2.1.4 DEFERRED TAXATION
Deferred taxation is recognised on all differences between the
carrying amount and the tax base of assets or liabilities (balance
sheet liability method). These differences arise from:
Temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax
base of assets or liabilities, which may be:
- items generating a tax liability in the future (deferred tax liabilities), arising mainly from income that is liable to tax in future
periods; or
- items deductible from taxable prots in the future (deferred tax
assets), mainly provisions that are temporarily non-deductible
for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date, and recognised where it is probable there will
be sufcient taxable prots to enable the temporary differences
to be offset.
Tax losses available for carry-forward (deferred tax assets),
provided that there is a strong probability of recovery in future
periods.

26

Deferred taxes are measured at the tax rate applicable at the


balance sheet date, adjusted as necessary for the effect of
changes in tax legislation.
The effects of changes in corporate income tax rates are
recognised in prot or loss for the period, in accordance with
the liability method.
The estimated amount of non-recoverable taxes on dividends
payable by French or foreign subsidiaries is covered by a
provision where material.
2.1.5 CONCESSION CONTRACTS AND PUBLICPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS (PPP)
The Bouygues Construction group has equity interests in
associates that have been awarded concession/PPP contracts; these are accounted for in accordance with IFRIC 12.

2.2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND VALUATION


METHODS
The Bouygues Construction group applies Recommendation
2009-R-03 on the presentation of nancial statements, issued
on 2 July 2009 by the Conseil National de la Comptabilit
(CNC), now the Autorit des Normes Comptables (ANC), the
French national accounting standard-setter.
2.2.1 ASSETS
a) Non-current assets
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is measured at acquisition cost
less accumulated depreciation and impairment.
Where an item of property, plant and equipment consists of
signicant components with different useful lives or different
depreciation methods, each component is accounted for and
depreciated as a separate item of property, plant and equipment (component-based approach).
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises the purchase price after deducting any commercial
discounts and rebates, including import duties and nonrefundable taxes and any costs directly attributable to bringing
the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be
capable of operating as intended by management.
Subsequent costs are recognised as an expense unless they
improve the performance of the asset as originally specied,
extend its useful life, or reduce the cost of operating the asset
as previously established.
Following initial recognition as an asset, items of property,
plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated
depreciation and impairment. The Bouygues Construction
group accounts for property, plant and equipment using the
benchmark historical cost model.
Depreciation is calculated over the expected useful life of the

asset. The useful life of an asset is the period over which the
Group expects the asset to be available for use.
The depreciable amount of an asset is cost less any estimated
residual value net of costs of disposal. The residual value of
an item of property, plant and equipment is the amount the
Group would receive currently for the asset if the asset were
already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of
its useful life (excluding the effects of ination).
The principal useful lives applied are:
Buildings: 10, 20 or 30 years, depending on whether the
building is of lightweight or durable construction
Plant, equipment and tooling: 3 to 8 years
Other property, plant and equipment: 3 to 10 years,
depending on the type of asset (vehicles, ofce equipment
and furniture, etc)
Depreciation periods are reviewed annually, and may be
adjusted if expectations differ from previous estimates.
Any such changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively.
Finance leases:
A nance lease is a contract under which substantially all the
risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the lessee,
whether or not title is ultimately transferred to the lessee.
Assets acquired under nance leases are, if material, recognised as an asset in the balance sheet under Property, plant
and equipment, with a matching liability recognised under
Debt on the liabilities side of the balance sheet.
These assets are depreciated over their expected useful lives.
Site rehabilitation costs:
Rehabilitation costs arising from the gradual deterioration of
a site are covered by provisions recognised on the liabilities
side of the balance sheet.
Investment properties:
The Bouygues Construction group has not identied any asset
that qualies as an investment property.
Intangible assets
IAS 38 denes an intangible asset as an identiable non-monetary asset without physical substance. An asset is identiable:
if it is separable, i.e. capable of being independently sold,
transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged;
or if it is derived from contractual or other legal rights,
whether separable or not.
Intangible assets with nite useful lives are depreciable. Intangible assets with indenite useful lives are not depreciable,
but are tested for impairment at each balance sheet date.

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

Development expenses
Development expenses are capitalised if the IAS 38 criteria are
met, i.e. if they are expected to generate future economic benets
and their cost can be reliably measured.
Incorporation and research expenses are expensed as incurred.
Intangible assets with no legal protection
Acquired intangible assets with no legal protection are included in
goodwill.
Business combinations
With effect from 1 January 2010, business combinations have
been accounted for in accordance with the revised IFRS 3 and
IAS 27, which use the concept of obtaining control in determining the accounting treatment to be applied to acquisitions or
disposals of equity interests; depending on the circumstances,
the impacts of such acquisitions and disposals are recognised
either in consolidated prot or loss or in equity.
In a business combination, the fair value of the consideration
transferred is allocated to the identiable assets and liabilities of
the acquiree, which are measured at fair value at the acquisition
date and presented in the balance sheet using the full fair value
method in accordance with the revised IFRS 3. This method
involves remeasuring the assets and liabilities acquired at fair
value in full (including minority interests), rather than remeasuring just the percentage interest acquired.
The revised IFRS 3 allows entities to elect one of two methods of
accounting for minority interests in each business combination:
at fair value (full goodwill method), i.e. the minority interests
are allocated their share of goodwill;
at the minority interests proportionate share of the acquired
entitys identifiable assets and liabilities (partial goodwill
method), i.e. no share of goodwill is allocated to the minority
interests.
Goodwill recognised prior to 1 January 2004 continues to be
measured using the partial fair value method. This method
involves restricting the fair value remeasurement of identiable
items to the percentage interest acquired. Minority interests in
these items are measured on the basis of the carrying amount
of the items as shown in the balance sheet of the acquired entity.
The revised standards allow the acquirer to elect to account for
each new business combination on either a full goodwill basis
or a partial goodwill basis.
Fair value is the amount for which an asset or cash generating
unit (CGU) could be sold between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arms length transaction.
Goodwill is the excess of the acquisition cost over the acquirers
interest in the fair value of the acquirees identiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that can be reliably measured at
the acquisition date.

27

It represents the payment made by the acquirer in anticipation


of the future economic benets arising from assets that cannot
be individually identied and separately recognised, and is
reported separately as an asset in the balance sheet.
Positive goodwill appears in asset item goodwill - negative
goodwill (i.e. gained from bargain purchase) is taken to the
income statement in the period in which the acquisition is made.
The measurement period is limited to the period required to
identify and measure the acquirees assets and liabilities, minority interests, the consideration paid, and the fair value of any
previously-held equity interest, subject to a maximum of twelve
months.
Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost
less accumulated impairment losses in accordance with IAS
36, and is tested for impairment annually. Any impairment
losses are recognised in prot or loss, as a component of operating prot.
Goodwill is allocated to the CGU beneting from the business
combination or to the group of CGUs at the level of which return
on investment is measured.
The value in use of CGUs is determined using the discounted cash
ow (DCF) method, applying the following principles:
The discount rate is determined by reference to the weighted
average cost of capital.
The cash ows used are derived from the medium-term
business plan prepared by the management of the CGU.
The terminal value is calculated by aggregating the discounted
cash ows to innity, based on normative cash ows and a
perpetual growth rate that is consistent with the growth potential
of the markets in which the CGU operates and with its competitive position in those markets.
Bouygues Construction has identied two CGUs:
A CGU comprising French and international building and civil
engineering activities:
The business plan used was prepared within the context of the
Groups management cycle.
The assumptions applied include no changes in the scope of
the Groups building and civil engineering activities, and the
continuation of these activities as a going concern over the
three-year period covered by the business plan.
The Bouygues Construction group has set a year by year protability target for its building and civil engineering activities.
This target is incorporated into the assumptions used in the
business plan, which also takes into account past experience
and external sources of information.
Discount rate applied: 11.51%/10.36%, depending on the
assumptions used. Growth rate applied: 0%.
There were no events or circumstances requiring the recognition
of an impairment loss in 2012.

28

A CGU comprising French and International Energy and


Services activities:
The business plan used was prepared within the context of the
Groups management cycle.
The assumptions applied include no changes in the scope of
the Groups Energy and Services activities, and the continuation
of these activities as a going concern over the three-year period
covered by the business plan.
The Bouygues Construction group has set a year by year protability target for its Energy and Services activities. This target is
incorporated into the assumptions used in the business plan,
which also takes into account past experience and external
sources of information.
Discount rate applied: 6.98%/6.27%, depending on the
assumptions used. Growth rate applied: 1%.
There were no events or circumstances requiring the recognition
of an impairment loss in 2012.
Financial assets
Investments in non-consolidated companies and
other long-term investment securities:
Investments in non-consolidated companies and other long-term
investment securities are classied as available-for-sale nancial
assets, and are recognised at fair value in the balance sheet.
Changes in fair value are recognised in equity except in the case
of other-than temporary impairment, in which case the impairment loss is recognised in prot or loss for the period. When an
asset is derecognised, the change in fair value previously recognised in equity is reclassied to prot or loss.
Non-current loans receivable:
Loans, advances to non-consolidated companies, and deposits
and caution money are measured at fair value on initial recognition, and subsequently at amortised cost.
b) Current assets
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (weighted average unit
cost) or market price.
Where the realisable value of inventory is lower than cost, an
impairment loss is recognised.
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are essentially short-term, and are carried at
face value net of impairment allowances recorded to reect the
probability of recovery.
In line with the percentage of completion method of accounting
for long-term contracts, trade receivables include:
statements issued as works are executed or services pro-

vided, and accepted by the project owner;


unbilled receivables, arising where works are entitled to acceptance but billing or acceptance by the project owner has been
temporarily delayed.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash equivalents (short-term investments) are measured at fair
value and classied as available-for-sale nancial assets.
Cash, short-term deposits and bank overdrafts:
Because of the short-term nature of these items, the carrying
amounts shown in the consolidated nancial statements are a
reasonable estimate of market value.
2.2.2 LIABILITIES AND SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY
a) Non-current liabilities
Non-current provisions
A provision is recorded where the Group has a present obligation
to a third party at the balance sheet date resulting from a past
event, the settlement of which is expected to result in a probable
outow from the Group of resources embodying economic benets that can be measured reliably.
These mainly comprise:
Employee benets
Provisions for lump-sum retirement benet obligations
The Group records a provision for its obligations to pay lumpsum benets to its employees on retirement, to the extent that
these obligations are not covered by insurance policies.
This provision is calculated using the projected unit credit
method based on nal salary, projected to the retirement date.
The amount of the provision is determined on the basis of the
relevant collective agreement, and taking account of the following factors:
- classication of employees into groups with common characteristics in terms of status, age and length of service;
- monthly salary, uplifted by a coefcient to reect the applicable percentage of employers social security charges;
- nal salary ination rate;
- discount rate applied to the obligation over the projected
period to the retirement date;
- employee turnover rate, determined by age bracket and
socio-professional category;
- life expectancy, determined using the INSEE 2006-2008
mortality table.
In accordance with the revised IAS 19, all actuarial gains and
losses on dened-benet post-employment benet plans are
recognised in non-current provisions, with the matching entry
recognised in equity via the statement of recognised income
and expense.

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

Provision for long-service awards:


The Group records a provision for its obligations in respect of
long-service awards (10, 20, 30 and 40 years) using the projected unit credit method, projected over the period to the date
of the award.
Provisions for litigation, claims and foreseeable risk
exposures
Customer warranty provisions
These provisions are intended to cover risks for which the
company is liable during the warranty period (essentially the
10-year warranty in France).
The provision is determined by applying a statistical rate (determined annually by reference to warranty information specic
to each entity) to sales.
b) Current liabilities
Trade and other payables
Because of the short-term nature of these liabilities, the carrying amounts shown in the consolidated nancial statements
are a reasonable estimate of market value.
Advances and down-payments received
This item comprises advances and down-payments received
from customers on construction contract starts.
Current provisions
These mainly comprise:
Provisions for project risks and project completion
Provisions for expected losses to completion:
These relate to construction contracts in progress, and take
account of claims accepted by the client. They are measured
on a contract by contract basis, with no netting between them.
2.2.3 INCOME STATEMENT
a) Consolidated sales
Consolidated sales represent the aggregate amount of contract revenues, sales of products and sales of services, including sales generated by the following entities (after eliminating
any intercompany transactions):
fully-consolidated entities;
construction project partnerships (whether or not managed
by the Group) and other proportionately-consolidated entities,
to the extent of the Groups share.
Sales are broken down into construction contracts, sales of
goods, and sales of services.
b) Accounting for construction contracts
All activities related to construction contracts are accounted

29

for using the percentage of completion method.


Under this method, the revenue recognised equals the latest
estimate of the total selling price of the contract multiplied by
the actual completion rate determined by reference to the
physical state of progress of the works. The latest estimate of
the total selling price takes account of claims accepted by the
client.
If it is regarded as probable that a contract will generate a loss
on completion, a provision for expected losses on completion
is recognised as a current provision in the balance sheet. The
loss is provided for in full as soon as it can be reliably measured, irrespective of the completion rate.
c) Prots/losses from joint operations
These represent the Groups share of prots or losses from
non-consolidated partnerships and joint ventures; as such,
they are a component of operating prot and are reported on
the lines Other income from operations and Other
expenses on operations.
d) Operating prot
Operating prot represents the net amount of all income and
expenses not generated by nancing activities, associates,
discontinued or held-for-sale operations, and income taxes.
Any impairment of goodwill is recognised as a charge against
operating prot.
e) Income from net surplus cash
Income from net surplus cash comprises all gains, losses,
income and expenses generated by components of net surplus cash during the period (see Note 9, Change in net
surplus cash), including gains and losses on related interest
rate and currency hedges.
f) Other nancial income and expenses
This comprises nancial income and expenses that are of a
non-operating nature and do not relate to components of net
surplus cash.
2.2.4 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Some Group entities use hedging instruments to limit the
impact on the income statement of uctuations in exchange
rates and interest rates. The Groups policy on the use of
nancial instruments is described below.
The only instruments used for hedging purposes are:
forward currency purchases and sales, currency swaps and
currency options for currency risk hedging purposes;
interest rate swaps and purchases of caps and collars for
interest rate risk hedging purposes.

30

These instruments:
are used solely for hedging purposes;
are contracted solely with high-quality French and foreign
banks;
carry no liquidity risk in the event of a downturn.
Specic reports are prepared on a regular basis for those
responsible for the management and supervision of the relevant
Group companies, describing the use of hedging instruments;
the selection of counterparties with whom they are contracted;
and more generally, the management of exposure to currency
risk and interest rate risk.
a) Risks to which the Group is exposed, and principles
applied to the management of these nancial risks
Currency risk
In general, the Bouygues Construction group has little exposure
to currency risk in routine commercial transactions. Where possible, expenses relating to a contract are incurred in the same
currency as that in which the contract is billed. This applies to
most projects executed outside France, on which local-currency
expenses (sub-contracting and supplies) represent a much
higher proportion than euro-denominated expenses. Particular
attention is paid to risks relating to assets denominated in nonconvertible currencies, and to country risk generally.
Group policy is to hedge systematically all residual exposure to
currency risk on commercial transactions relative to the functional currency of a project or entity. If the future cash ow is
certain, the currency risk is hedged by buying or selling currency
forward, or by means of currency swaps. For some large contracts, options may be taken out for hedging purposes before
the contract award has been conrmed.
Equity investments in foreign companies are usually hedged by
a liability of a similar amount in the same currency in the books
of the entity that holds the investment.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises on variable-rate debt, and is hedged using
variable-rate investments.
The Groups income statement could be adversely affected by
a signicant fall in European interest rates. Interest rate swaps
may be contracted to lock in the income streams from the
Groups surplus cash.
b) Hedge accounting policies and rules
The Group accounts for hedges in accordance with IAS 39.
Hedge accounting is applied where a derivative instrument
wholly or partly offsets changes in the fair value or cash ows
of a hedged item. Hedge effectiveness is assessed on a regular
basis, and at least once a quarter.

To qualify for hedge accounting, nancial instruments must


meet the following conditions:
formal designation and documentation of the hedging relationship on inception of the hedge;
hedge effectiveness demonstrated throughout the life of the
nancial instrument.
If a hedging relationship cannot be demonstrated, all changes
in fair value are recognised in prot or loss.
All derivative instruments are measured at fair value. Fair value
is the quoted market price in the case of listed instruments, or
is determined using calculation and valuation models based on
market data (yield curves, exchange rates, etc) in other cases.
No embedded derivatives within the meaning of IAS 39 have
been identied within the Bouygues Construction group.
Cash ow hedges
A cash ow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in the
future cash ows from a hedged item or a future transaction.
Where a derivative instrument is used to hedge the exposure to
variability in the cash ows from a rm commitment or a forecast transaction, the change in the fair value of the portion of
the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective
hedge is recognised directly in equity.
The change in fair value of the portion of the hedge regarded as
ineffective is recognised immediately in prot or loss.
Fair value hedges
The purpose of a fair value hedge is to limit the variability of the
fair value of an asset or a liability recognised in the balance sheet.
Where a derivative instrument hedges exposure to changes in
the fair value of a receivable or a payable, the change in the fair
value of the hedging instrument is recognised immediately in
prot or loss. The gain or loss on the hedged item attributable
to the hedged risk is accounted for as an adjustment to the
carrying amount of the hedged item, and is recognised directly
in prot or loss.
The fair value of hedged items corresponds to their carrying
amount translated into euros using the rate prevailing at the
balance sheet date.
Hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation
A hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation is a hedge of
the currency risk exposure on the parent companys interest in
the net assets of that operation.
Where a liability denominated in a foreign currency is used to
hedge a net investment in a foreign operation, translation differences arising between that currency and the euro are recognised directly in equity. If the hedging instrument is a derivative
instrument, the change in the fair value of the portion of the

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge


is recognised directly in equity; the change in fair value of the
ineffective portion is recognised immediately in prot or loss.
2.2.5 CASH FLOW STATEMENT
The cash ow statement is presented in accordance with IAS
7 and with CNC recommendation 2009-R-03 of 2 July 2009
(indirect method).
The net prot of consolidated entities is adjusted to eliminate
the impact of transactions with no cash effect, and of income
and expenses related to investing or nancing activities.
Cash ow as reported in the cash ow statement is dened
as follows:
Net prot from consolidated entities before: net depreciation
and amortisation expense, net changes in provisions and impairment losses, gains and losses on asset disposals, income from
net suplus cash or cost of net debt (included in nancing activities in the cash ow statement), and net income tax expense
for the period.
The cash ow statement explains changes in the Groups net
cash position, which is dened as the net total of the following
balance sheet items:
cash and cash equivalents;
overdrafts and short-term bank borrowings.
No cash or cash equivalents were unavailable as of 31
December 2012.
2.2.6 OFF BALANCE SHEET COMMITMENTS
A summary of off balance sheet commitments is provided
in Note 18.
2.2.7 EBITDA
EBITDA equals Current operating prot after stripping out
Net depreciation and amortisation expense, Net charges to
provisions and impairment losses, and reversals of unused
provisions and impairment losses reported in Other income
from operations and Other expenses from operations.
2.2.8 FREE CASH FLOW
Free cash ow equals cash ow after income from surplus cash
(or cost of net debt) and income tax expense, less net capital
expenditure for the period.
Net capital expenditure equals the purchase price of property,
plant and equipment and intangible assets acquired during
the period, net of proceeds from disposals and investment
grants obtained.
2.2.9 NET SURPLUS CASH
Net surplus cash is the sum total of the following items:

31

cash and cash equivalents;


overdrafts and short-term bank borrowings;
non-current and current debt;
nancial instruments used to hedge nancial liabilities
measured at fair value.

2.3 OTHER INFORMATION


Comparability of the nancial statements:
The impact of changes in the scope of consolidation between
1 January and 31 December 2012 does not impair the comparability of the consolidated nancial statements as presented.
Under the revised IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Group has elected to present the components of
comprehensive income in two detailed statements, as permitted by the IASB:
a) an income statement;
b) a statement of recognised income and expense that reports
other comprehensive income, including income and expenses
recognised directly in equity.
Bouygues Construction is included in the scope of consolidation
of Bouygues SA for the purposes of the presentation of the
Bouygues SA consolidated nancial statements.

BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by reference to the weighted average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for the conversion of all
potentially dilutive shares. Because Bouygues Construction does not use dilutive instruments, there is no difference between basic earnings
per share and diluted earnings per share.

17.3. MARKET VALUE OF HEDGING INSTRUMENTS


At 31 December 2012, the market value (net present value) of the hedging instruments portfolio was -3.2m. This amount mainly comprises the net present value of forwards and futures contracted to hedge currency risk arising on commercial transactions, and the net
present value of interest rate swaps contracted to hedge the Groups debt.
The split of this market value by type of hedge is as follows:
- fair value hedges:
-2.2m
- cash ow hedges:
-1.0m
- hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation: 0.0m
In the event of a +1.00% movement in the euro yield curve, the hedging instruments portfolio would have a market value of -0.6m; in
the event of a -1.00% movement in the euro yield curve (subject to a yield curve oor of 0.0%), the hedging instruments portfolio would
have a market value of -7.0m.
In the event of a uniform 1% depreciation in the euro against all other currencies, the hedging instruments portfolio would have a market
value of -1.7m.
These calculations were prepared by the Bouygues Construction group, or obtained from the banks with whom the instruments were
contracted.

BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION_2012 FINANCIAL REPORT

Statutory auditors report


on the consolidated financial
statements
To the Shareholders,
In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your
Annual General Meetings, we hereby report to you, for the
year ended December 31, 2012 on:
the audit of the accompanying consolidated nancial statements of Bouygues Construction,
the justication of our assessments,
the specic verication required by law.
These consolidated nancial statements have been approved
by the Board of Directors. Our role is to express an opinion on
these consolidated nancial statements based on our audit.

I. - OPINION ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


We conducted our audit in accordance with professional standards applicable in France; those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the consolidated nancial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures, using sampling techniques or other methods of
selection, to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated nancial statements. An audit
also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
made, as well as the overall presentation of the consolidated
nancial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we
have obtained is sufcient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated nancial statements give a
true and fair view of the assets and liabilities and of the nancial position of the Group as at December 31, 2012 and of the
results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted
by the European Union.

II. - JUSTIFICATION OF OUR ASSESSMENTS


In accordance with the requirements of article L. 823-9 of the
French commercial code (Code de commerce) relating to the
justication of our assessments, we bring to your attention
the following matters:
Current and non-current provisions carried on the balance
sheet were measured as described in Note 2.2.2 to the
consolidated nancial statements. In light of available information, our assessment of these provisions was based
primarily on an analysis of the processes implemented by
management to identify and evaluate risks.
As indicated in note 2.2.3 to the consolidated nancial
statements, the Group accounts for construction contracts
using the percentage of completion method, which leads
to assess year-end margin based on cost to complete estimates. Our work was namely to assess the appropriateness
of the assumptions taken and the assessment of the stage
of completion margin.
These assessments were made as part of our audit of the
consolidated nancial statements taken as a whole, and therefore contributed to the opinion we formed which is expressed
in the rst part of this report.

III. - SPECIFIC VERIFICATION


As required by law we have also veried in accordance with
professional standards applicable in France the information
presented in the Groups management report.
We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and its
consistency with the consolidated nancial statements.
