First-half net profit rose 24% to €74 million, while EBITDA increased 10% and its margin widened to 17%. Profitability is growing faster than sales, suggesting better returns from the work being delivered. (Reuters)
A World Bank Group agency issued $62.6 million of guarantees covering Mota-Engil’s equity investment in the Lobito railway, offering protection as it backs a major long-term infrastructure project. The corridor also links the company’s existing railway operations in Angola with the Congolese network. (MIGA, Bloomberg)
Net financial costs worsened to €135 million in the first half from €121 million a year earlier, and the average interest rate was 7.1%. Higher financing costs can absorb a meaningful share of operating gains. (ECO News)
Net debt rose to €1.99 billion from €1.94 billion at the end of 2025, while the group invested €185 million and paid €69 million in dividends. Continued investment in concessions and projects could keep pressure on debt and cash available to shareholders. (ECO News)
European sales fell 20% in the first half, despite growth in Africa and Latin America. That weakness shows that activity remains uneven across the group’s markets and could weigh on growth if the stronger regions slow. (Reuters)
