VINCI’s 2022 financial statements show a sharp rise in revenue and earnings compared with 2021. All business lines posted significant growth in earnings, taking them very close to or above levels achieved before the Covid-19 pandemic. This good momentum was accompanied by record free cash flow.

Consolidated revenue totalled €61.7 billion in 2022, up 25% on an actual basis relative to 2021 and up 11% like-for-like. Relative to 2019, the year before the Covid-19 crisis, revenue was up 28%. For the first time in VINCI’s history, revenue generated outside France exceeded that generated in France (55% in 2022 as opposed to 47% in 2021).

Ebitda rose sharply to €10.2 billion (€7.9 billion in 2021 and €8.5 billion in 2019). It equalled 16.6% of revenue (16.0% in 2021 and 17.7% in 2019).

Operating income from ordinary activities (Ebit) was €6.8 billion, much higher than in previous years (€4.7 billion in 2021 and €5.7 billion in 2019). It equalled 11.1% of revenue compared with 9.6% in 2021 and 11.9% in 2019.

Recurring operating income amounted to €6.5 billion (€4.5 billion in 2021 and €5.7 billion in 2019). It includes a share-based payment expense (IFRS 2) and a slightly positive contribution from companies accounted for under the equity method.

Consolidated net income attributable to owners of the parent was almost €4.3 billion in 2022, representing growth of 64% compared with 2021 (€2.6 billion (*)) and a 31% increase relative to 2019 (€3.3 billion). Earnings per share, after taking account of dilutive instruments, amounted to €7.47 (€4.51 in 2021 and €5.82 in 2019).

Free cash flow – after operating investments by the business lines – hit a record €5.4 billion. This was driven by higher Ebitda, a stable working capital requirement following a high level of cash collection at the end of the year, and a firm grip on operating investments.

Net financial debt at 31 December 2022 was €18.5 billion. This represents a fall of €1.0 billion relative to 31 December 2021 after taking into account financial investments during the period (€2.7 billion), dividend payments (€1.9 billion) and share buy-backs net of capital increases (€0.6 billion).

At 31 December 2022, VINCI had a large amount of liquidity, around €20 billion, breaking down into €9.2 billion of managed net cash (€9.0 billion a year earlier) and €10.5 billion of confirmed credit facilities not used by VINCI SA (€8.0 billion a year earlier).

The Group carried out several bond issues and refinancing transactions in 2022, totalling €2.8 billion. Debt repayments during the year amounted to €3.6 billion.

Order intake at VINCI Energies, Cobra IS and VINCI Construction totalled €55.7 billion in 2022, up 32% year on year (up 13% excluding Cobra IS).

(*) €2.8 billion excluding the non-recurring deferred tax expense in the United Kingdom that was recognised in 2021.
