A resilient business model combined with a sustainable growth strategy

VINCI’s business model is stable in its fundamentals and can be applied to ever-expanding geographies and areas of expertise. This stability and versatility are what gives it such immense resilience. The Group’s strategy is to adapt and hone this robust model as it continues to develop across its three businesses – Concessions, Energy and Construction. VINCI is also harnessing its innovation capacity while engaging in the environmental transition to achieve responsible, sustainable growth.

BUSINESS MODEL

VINCI’s business strategy has long been built around the complementary nature of its con­cessions, energy and construction activities. The Group has never ceased to expand its busi­ness model, moving from electricity concessions in the early 20th century into motorway, airport and renewable energy concessions in the 21st, and from building and infrastructure construc­tion into specialist activities in civil engineering and information technologies. As it has diversi­fied its areas of expertise, so has VINCI entered more and more international markets. In 2022, for the first time ever, the Group generated more of its revenue outside the country than in France – nearly 55%.
In addition to a broad range of businesses and markets, VINCI gains its resilience from its management approach. The Group’s highly decentralised organisation and supportive management culture give its companies and people tremendous agility in adapting to changes and unpredictability in their environment.
Drawing on these solid, shared fundamen­tals, VINCI will continue to implement its long-term strategy and to develop its three core businesses.

CONCESSIONS

VINCI’s strategy for its Concessions business focuses on transport infrastructure. Like its con­cession contracts, this strategy is long-term. It aims to diversify, renew and internationalise the Group’s mix of concessions and extend the average maturity of its portfolio. VINCI’s fast growth in airport and motorway concessions since the 2000s, both in France and internationally, results from its steady implementation of this strategy.
To achieve its aims, the Group harnesses its integrated expertise – as an investor and devel­oper of projects, a designer and builder of infra­structure, and an infrastructure operator and maintenance provider – and combines this know-how with its partnership culture and experience collaborating with the local authorities and stake­holders in its ecosystems.
Since the integration of Cobra IS in 2022, this strategy has been applied to renewable energy projects. The Group is leveraging Cobra IS’s specialised range of activities to build a portfolio of electricity production assets. By the end of 2023, the total capacity of its photovoltaic projects in operation or under construction is expected to reach around 2 GW. The longer-term opportunities identified point to the significant growth prospects of this type of asset, in the context of a general shift toward developing renewable energies.
Structural demand for mobility, along with the large investments needed to adapt transport infrastructure to low-carbon uses while reinforcing its climate resilience, will also deliver a long-term boost to transport infrastructure concessions.
In all these sectors, new project development will benefit from synergies between the Concessions, Energy and Construction busi­nesses, building on their areas of expertise and established presence in the targeted regions.

ENERGY

VINCI has focused strategically on its energy activities since the early 2000s. This has resulted in the very sharp internal and external growth of VINCI Energies, whose expertise in energy infrastructure and information technology have proven to be fully aligned with fundamental market trends. The Group’s expansion in this area accelerated with the integration of Cobra IS, the former energy arm of the ACS group, on 1 January 2022. Cobra IS is a comple­mentary fit with VINCI Energies, with a strong foothold in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America and a solid reputation for delivering large EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) projects.
Spurred by this addition to its Energy busi­ness, VINCI will pursue growth in these markets, buoyed for the long term by the environmental transition and the continuous development of renewable energies.

CONSTRUCTION

VINCI Construction is one of the Group’s earliest businesses and where its entrepreneurial culture all started. Today, it is a global construction industry leader. The integration of Eurovia’s activities, in 2021, brought all of VINCI Construction’s building, civil engineering and infrastructure know-how into one business line. The new organisation creates internal synergies and facilitates innovation to develop efficient solutions for increasingly complex projects.
VINCI Construction will continue to develop its three pillars – major projects, networks of specialist subsidiaries and networks of local subsidiaries –, using this combined global and local approach to achieve optimal market coverage and extend the international reach of the Group’s activities. Targeted acquisitions may round out the Construction business line's presence and expertise.
