2.3 Trends in 2022

Although the public health situation has not yet stabilised and despite ongoing economic and geopolitical tensions, VINCI is confident going into 2022.

Barring exceptional events, the Group anticipates the following trends in its various business lines in 2022:

  • VINCI Energies’ markets remain buoyant and it should be able to continue growing its business and solidify its very strong operational performance.
  • Cobra IS, underpinned by firm impetus in its flow business activities – particularly in Spain – and the ramp-up of EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) projects, will be more selective about taking on new business. Given a focus on margins over volumes, Cobra IS expects revenue of around €5.5 billion in 2022 and operating margin in line with the industry’s best in class.
  • VINCI Construction has a large order book and is likely to remain busy, while taking a selective approach to new business, which should allow it to continue improving its operating margin.
  • VINCI Autoroutes, following the trend seen in recent months, expects full-year traffic levels to exceed those of 2019.
  • VINCI Airports, unless the public health situation worsens again, expects the upturn in passenger numbers to continue. The base case scenario is that they will recover to around 60% of their 2019 level, which would enable VINCI Airports’ net income to be close to breakeven.

Based on the trends set out above, VINCI expects net income in 2022 to be higher than the 2019 figure.
