Bouygues

Bouygues will expand its activities in the US, Germany and northern Europe to seek growth beyond the weakening French market. CEO Olivier Roussat called the US market particularly attractive and said the group will focus on road construction and on Equans, which builds infrastructure for the energy transition. In Germany, where revenue is currently around €1bn, Bouygues aims to double to triple its sales. Political uncertainty in France could, however, weigh on the property business and advertising revenue at broadcaster TF1; Bouygues is also part of a consortium seeking to take over SFR. » Więcej na de.investing.com

A consortium made up of Bouygues, Orange and Iliad has signed a letter of intent with Altice France to acquire mobile operator SFR. The agreed valuation is €20.35 billion; Bouygues is to take about 42%, Iliad 31% and Orange 27% of SFR’s assets. The deal is subject to regulatory approvals, is planned for the second half of 2027, and includes possible purchase-price adjustments and exit clauses, which would consolidate the French telecom market from four to three major providers. » Więcej na finanzen.net

The stock fell about 5.5% in pre‑market trading. » Więcej na de.investing.com

Bouygues reports a 3.2% decline in revenue for Q1 2026 to €12.2bn, but shows increased operating profitability (COPA €77m) and an improved net loss of €94m. Net debt fell by around €2.02bn to €5.059bn and net gearing improved to 34%. Strong results at Equans and growth in Bouygues Telecom’s FTTH business offset weaknesses at TF1 and Colas. The group confirms its 2026 outlook and highlights diversification, solid liquidity and investment‑grade ratings. » Więcej na de.investing.com
