NINE-MONTH 2025 RESULTS
Paris, 05/11/25
STRONG NINE-MONTH 2025 GROUP RESULTS
THE GROUP IS TARGETING, FOR 2025, A SLIGHT INCREASE IN COPA AND A SLIGHT INCREASE IN SALES AT CONSTANT EXCHANGE RATES, VERSUS 2024
- Group sales: €41.9bn, up 0.9% year-on-year, notably driven by the construction businesses. The Group’s third-quarter 2025 sales were stable year-on-year at €15bn and included exchange rate effects of around -€250m over the third quarter.
- Group current operating profit from activities (COPA): €1,814m, up €95m year-on-year, an increase driven by the construction businesses and Equans.
- Net profit attributable to the Group (excluding the exceptional income tax surcharge for large companies in France) amounted to €735m, improving €48m year-on-year.
- The estimated effects of the French Finance law and the Social security financing law for 2025, passed in first-quarter 2025 (mainly the exceptional income tax surcharge for large companies in France), on net profit attributable to the Group is confirmed at around €100m for the full year, of which around €80m was booked in the first nine months of 2025.
- Net profit attributable to the Group amounted to €675m, and therefore cannot be compared to that of the first nine months of 2024.
- Particularly robust financial structure: net debt (€7.6bn) improving by around €900m versus end-September 2024, including net acquisitions of close to €1.1bn over the year. S&P outlook associated with its A- credit rating on the Group1 was upgraded negative to stable.
The Board of Directors, chaired by Martin Bouygues, met on 4 November 2025 to close off the financial statements for the first nine months of 2025.

(a) Up 0.8% like-for-like and at constant exchange rates.
(b) Includes PPA amortisation of €77m in 9M 2025 and €68m in 9M 2024.
(c) Includes net non-current charges of €151m in 9M 2025 and of €177m in 9M 2024.
(d) Net debt at end-September 2025 included net acquisitions of close to €1.1bn year-on-year.
- Nine-month 2025 sales were €41.9 billion, up 0.9% versus nine-month 2024, mainly driven by the construction businesses and the nine-month contribution from La Poste Telecom. Like-for-like and at constant exchange rates, sales increased 0.8% year-on-year.
- Exchange rate effects in the first nine months were around -€270 million, and were almost entirely concentrated in the third quarter (impact of around -€250 million).
- As such, the Group’s third-quarter sales remained stable year-on-year, at €15 billion.
- Current operating profit from activities (COPA) was €1,814 million, up €95 million year-on-year, driven mainly by the construction businesses, where COPA increased €115 million year-on-year to €591 million, and by Equans, where COPA increased by €91 million year-on-year to €565 million. As expected, the contribution from Bouygues Telecom was down €94 million to €509 million.
- Net profit attributable to the Group was €675 million2. Excluding the exceptional income tax surcharge for large companies in France, net profit attributable to the Group was €735 million, improving €48 million year-on-year. In particular, net profit attributable to the Group included:
- amortisation and impairment of intangible assets recognised in acquisitions (PPA) of €77 million
(up €9 million year-on-year); - net non-current charges3 of €151 million, which do not reflect the operational performance of the business segments. This notably includes non-current charges related to the Management Incentive Plan at Equans, as well as provisions booked by Bouygues Construction and by Colas, related respectively to a regulatory change in the United Kingdom and to an international case at Colas Rail dating back to 2011;
- financial result of -€305 million. As a reminder, the financial result was -€287 million in the first nine months of 2024;
- income tax expense of €514 million, which includes the exceptional income tax surcharge for large companies in France for an amount of €71 million4. Income tax expense in the first nine months of 2024 was €392 million5.
- amortisation and impairment of intangible assets recognised in acquisitions (PPA) of €77 million
- Net debt was €7.6 billion at end-September 2025, an improvement of €856 million versus end-September 2024, including net acquisitions of close to €1.1 billion over the year, especially the acquisition of La Poste Telecom. Net gearing6 was 53% at end-September 2025 (versus 61% at
end-September 2024).
OUTLOOK FOR 2025
Outlook for the Group
In a very uncertain global environment, the Group’s six business segments will continue to prove their ability to keep pace with developments in their respective markets. They will pursue their efforts to improve profitability.
The Group confirms it is targeting a slight increase in current operating profit from activities (COPA) versus 2024.
The Bouygues group specifies that its 2025 sales are expected to be slightly up versus 2024 at constant exchange rates. Given fluctuations in currencies, notably those related to the US dollar, sales as published, are now expected to be close to the level of 2024.
Previously, the Bouygues group was targeting for 2025 a slight increase in sales and in current operating profit from activities (COPA) versus 2024.
The effects of the French Finance law and the Social security financing law, passed in first-quarter 2025, on net profit attributable to the Group, are estimated to date at around €100 million for 2025.
Outlook for Equans
Equans continues to roll out its strategic Plan. For 2025, Equans is targeting:
- A slight decrease in sales versus 2024, at constant exchange rates, given the proactive exit from remaining non-strategic and non-performing activities, and the temporary slowdown in some areas of activity.
(Previously, Equans was targeting sales close to the level of 2024, at constant exchange rates).
- A margin from activities close to 4.3% (previously, Equans was targeting a margin from activities close to 4.2%).
- A cash conversion rate (COPA-to-cash flow7) before working capital requirement (WCR) of between
80% and 100%.
As a reminder, Equans aims to gradually catch up with the organic growth of sector peers and to achieve a margin from activities (COPA margin) of 5% in 2027.
Outlook for Bouygues Telecom
For 2025, Bouygues Telecom confirms it is aiming for:
- Sales billed to customers, including La Poste Telecom8 higher than in 2024.
- Sales billed to customers (like-for-like, excluding La Poste Telecom) close to the level of 2024. The figure will be either slightly higher or slightly lower, depending on the duration and intensity of the competitive pressure currently being experienced.
- Broadly stable EBITDA after Leases compared to 2024. In 2025, Bouygues Telecom will no longer benefit from the very favourable low hedged energy prices arranged in 2020 and 2021. La Poste Telecom’s contribution to EBITDA after Leases will be limited in 2025, with the full effect expected from 2028.
- Gross capital expenditure of around €1.5 billion (excluding frequencies), including expenditure related to the preparation for the migration of La Poste Telecom Mobile customers.
Outlook for the TF1 group
Capitalizing on its successful strategy, the TF1 group confirms the following 2025 targets:
- Strong double-digit revenue growth in digital.
- Aiming for a growing dividend policy in the coming years.
The current phase of political and fiscal instability in France is undermining the confidence of economic actors and resulting in a more challenging advertising market than expected (linear in particular) in October. First indications for November are also below expectations.
Given this context, and with limited visibility until the end of the year, the TF1 group has adjusted its 2025 guidance for margin from activities to a level between 10.5% and 11.5% (versus a broadly stable margin compared with 2024, when it stood at 12.6%).
DETAILED ANALYSIS BY SECTOR OF ACTIVITY
CONSTRUCTION BUSINESSES
At end-September 2025, the backlog in the construction businesses (Colas, Bouygues Construction and Bouygues Immobilier) was at a very high level of €32.1 billion, up 1% year-on-year9, providing good visibility on future activity.
The backlog was up in Europe10 excluding France (up 14% year-on-year), stable year-on-year in France, and down in the international excluding Europe geography (down 6% year-on-year).
- The backlog at Colas totalled €14.2 billion, rising by around €1.4 billion or 11% year-on-year (up 12% at constant exchange rates and excluding principal disposals and acquisitions). The Roads backlog rose 2% year-on-year (down 3% in France and up 4% internationally). The Rail backlog was up 31% year-on-year.
The share of backlog at end-September 2025 to be executed within 15 months, increased by around €400 million versus end-September 2024.
Colas recorded an order intake of €10.8 billion in the first nine months of 2025. The order intake increased slightly year-on-year in Roads, driven by international, with in third-quarter 2025, significant order intake in the United States, Canada and Morocco. Nine-month 2025 order intake was down slightly year-on-year in mainland France, as expected. In Rail, the order intake increased strongly year-on-year, notably following the signature of a major contract in the United Kingdom during the third quarter.
- Bouygues Construction’s backlog stood at €17.2 billion at end-September 2025, down by around €700 million, or down 4% year-on-year (down 3% at constant exchange rates and excluding principal disposals and acquisitions). It was driven mainly by France Building and International Building, where backlogs increased by 12% and 1% respectively year-on-year. The backlog at Civil Works decreased by 14% year-on-year.
The share of backlog at end-September 2025 to be executed within 15 months, decreased by around €200 million versus end-September 2024. The change in Bouygues Construction’s backlog is not representative, given fluctuations in the award of very large contracts. Several major contracts are expected to be awarded by mid-2026, which will help sustain the backlog.
Bouygues Construction’s order intake was €6.8 billion in the first nine months of 2025, with a large part coming from the normal course of business (contracts of less than €100 million), representing 72% of total order intake in the period. In addition, Bouygues Construction signed several contracts worth over €100 million in first nine months of 2025, including three in the third quarter.
- Bouygues Immobilier continues to face a still challenging market environment. Residential property reservations were slightly over €900 million. Unit reservations rose in value terms and were stable in volume11. Block reservations declined in value and volume. The mix for 2025 is different from that for 2024. The sell-off and cancellation rates both improved significantly year-on-year. Commercial property activity remains at a very low level. The backlog was €723 million, down by around €280 million or down 28% year-on-year. The decrease of around €70 million in the backlog since end-June 2025 is mainly related to the deconsolidation of activities in Poland in July 2025 for around €40 million.
The construction businesses reported sales of €20.6 billion in the first nine months of 2025, up 2% year-on-year12.
- Sales at Colas were up slightly by 1% year-on-year13. Rail (up 12% year-on-year) benefited from business momentum in Egypt, France and Germany, while Roads was stable year-on-year, with France up 2%, the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) region up 2%, North America down 5% and APAC (Asia-Pacific) up 19%.
- Bouygues Construction’s sales rose 4% year-on-year14, driven by its three core businesses – Civil Works (up 5% year-on-year), France Building (up 4% year-on-year) and International Building (up 6% year-on-year).
- Sales at Bouygues Immobilier decreased 6%15 versus the first nine months of 2024, with sales from Residential property restated for the disposal of activities in Poland down by 4% year-on-year.
In the first nine months of 2025, current operating profit from activities (COPA) in the construction businesses was €591 million, up €115 million year-on-year, reflecting increased profits across all three business segments. COPA margin in the construction businesses improved by 0.5 points year-on-year to 2.9%.
- At Colas, COPA was €317 million, up €11 million year-on-year. Its margin from activities was 2.7%, up slightly by 0.1 points year-on-year.
- Bouygues Construction’s COPA increased €45 million to €264 million in first nine months of 2025. Its margin from activities was 3.3%, improving by 0.4 points year-on-year.
- Bouygues Immobilier’s COPA was €10 million, versus a current operating loss from activities of €49 million in first nine months of 2024. COPA included some one-off items, representing a positive global amount of €27 million, in particular the disposal of activities in Poland.
EQUANS
The backlog at Equans at end-September 2025 was €25.8 billion, stable year-on-year16. Its order intake in the first nine months of 2025 was a high €13.9 billion. Order intake relating to contracts worth less than €5 million (which represents over two-thirds of total order intake) increased year-on-year. By contrast, order intake relating to contracts worth over €5 million was down year-on-year, underscoring the wait-and-see attitude perceptible in segments such as data centres in Europe and the gigafactories market. The underlying margin of the order intake continues improving steadily.
Equans posted sales of €13.8 billion in the first nine months of 2025, down 2% year-on-year (down 2% like-for-like and at constant exchange rates). It continues its selective approach to contracts strategy and to divest non-strategic activities, in particular the New Build business (building of new homes, notably social housing) in the United Kingdom. The temporary slowdown in activity was also related to the wait-and-see stance mentioned above.
COPA at Equans was €565 million in first nine months of 2025, rising sharply by €91 million year-on-year. The margin from activities was 4.1%, an increase of 0.7 points year-on-year, demonstrating the continued successful execution of the Perform plan.
In third-quarter 2025, Equans completed four acquisitions, in Germany, Austria, Italy and North America. They represent cumulative sales of around €180 million on a full-year basis.
BOUYGUES TELECOM
Bouygues Telecom maintained a robust commercial performance in Fixed, still benefiting from the good momentum from the B.iG and B&YOU Pure Fibre offers, launched in late 2024, which translated into improved customer satisfaction and churn. The promising launch of Fixed offers by La Poste Telecom in September also made a positive contribution.
At end-September 2025, FTTH customers totalled 4.6 million after 371,000 new customers were added in the first nine months of 2025, of which 128,000 in the third quarter. The total Fixed customer base was 5.3 million, equating to an additional 184,000 in first nine months of 2025, of which an increase of 79,000 in the third quarter. The share of Fixed customers subscribing to a FTTH line continued to increase, reaching 85% versus 79% one year earlier. Bouygues Telecom continued extending its geographical reach across France, achieving its target of 40 million FTTH premises marketed one year ahead of schedule. In the third quarter, Fixed ABPU increased by €0.2 year-on-year to €33.4 per customer per month.
Bouygues Telecom reported a good commercial performance in Mobile, in a mature market that remains competitive. The initial benefits of its new strategy with B.iG continued to feed through into customer satisfaction, churn and the number of convergent customers. Mobile plan customers excluding MtoM totalled 18.5 million as 231,000 were added in the first nine months of 2025, of which 125,000 in the third quarter.
In third-quarter 2025, Mobile ABPU including La Poste Telecom was €17.3 per customer per month17, in a still competitive market in the low-end segment, with low prices for new customers, and factored in the dilutive effect of La Poste Telecom as expected.
Sales billed to customers reached €4.9 billion, up 5% versus the first nine months of 2024, driven by La Poste Telecom. They were broadly stable excluding La Poste Telecom, with the positive contribution from Fixed being offset by the decline in Mobile. In total, Bouygues Telecom’s sales were up 4% year-on-year, lifted by the increase in Sales from services (up 4% year-on-year) and Other sales (up 3% year-on-year), which mainly consist of Handset, Accessories and Built-to-suit sales.
EBITDA after Leases came to €1.5 billion in the first nine months of 2025, stable year-on-year, and included – as expected – a modest contribution from La Poste Telecom. Stable EBITDA after Leases reflects the growth in sales billed to customers and ongoing efforts to control costs, as well as higher energy costs (Bouygues Telecom no longer benefits from the very favourable low hedged energy prices since late 2024). EBITDA after Leases margin was 31.3%, a decrease of 1.2 points year-on-year.
Bouygues Telecom’s COPA was €509 million, down €94 million year-on-year, resulting from the increase in depreciation and amortisation in line with the gross capex pathway. Current operating profit amounted to €483 million and included €26 million of PPA amortisation. Operating profit was €472 million and included a net non-current charge of €11 million.
Gross capital expenditure excluding frequencies amounted to €1 billion at end-September 2025.
TF1
TF1 group’s viewing figures gained ground across all targets in the first nine months of 2025, with audience shares of 33.8% in the WPDM 5018 category and of 30.7% among individuals aged 25-49.
Sales at the TF1 group were €1.6 billion in first nine months of 2025, stable year-on-year.
- Media sales declined by 1% year-on-year, with advertising revenues down 2% year-on-year. TF1+ maintained its strong growth momentum (up 41% year-on-year), confirming the platform’s appeal for advertisers.
- Sales at Studio TF1 (formerly Newen Studios) were €213 million in first nine months of 2025, up 11% year-on-year, including a €25 million contribution form Johnson Production Group (JPG), versus €8 million in the same period last year19.
TF1’s COPA was €191 million, down slightly by €7 million year-on-year. As previously announced, COPA in the third quarter of 2024 included a €27 million capital gain from the sale of the Ushuaïa brand. During the third quarter of 2025, TF1 finalised the sales of My Little Paris and PlayTwo, thereby generating a capital gain of €17 million. Stripping out these items, COPA at end-September 2025 was up €3 million year-on-year.
COPA incorporates a cost of programmes amounting to €662 million. The slight decrease of €9 million versus the first nine months of 2024, notably reflects the base effect related to the EURO 2024 soccer tournament. The margin from activities was 11.9%, a decrease of 0.5 points year-on-year.
FINANCIAL SITUATION
At €14.4 billion, the Group maintained a very high level of liquidity, which comprised €3.1 billion in cash and equivalents, supplemented by €11.3 billion in undrawn medium- and long-term credit facilities.
Net debt at end-September 2025 was €7.6 billion, versus €6.1 billion at end-December 2024 and €8.5 billion
at end-September 2024. This represents an improvement of €856 million year-on-year and includes net acquisitions of close to €1.1 billion over the year, especially the acquisition of La Poste Telecom.
The change in working capital requirements and other was a negative €1.9 billion in the first nine months of 2025.
Net gearing20 was 53%, an improvement versus end-September 2024 (61%).
At end-September 2025, the average maturity of the Group’s bonds was 6.6 years, and the average coupon was 3.01% (average effective rate of 2.25%). The debt maturity schedule is well spread over time, and the next bond redemption will be in October 2026.
On 12 September 2025, Standard and Poor’s upgraded the outlook associated with its A- rating on the Group to stable from negative. Following this upgrade, the long-term credit ratings assigned to the Group by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s are: A3, stable outlook, and A-, stable outlook, respectively.
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS
Colas
On 5 August, Colas Inc., the US subsidiary of Colas, announced the signing of a preliminary agreement to acquire 100% of the shares in Suit-Kote, currently held by the Suits family, who founded the company in 1921, for an amount exceeding USD450 million.
Suit-Kote specialises in the distribution of liquid asphalt, in the manufacture of emulsion mixes, and in road construction and pavement preservation across multiple states in north-eastern United States. With over 750 employees, Suit-Kote generates approximately USD500 million in sales annually.
The planned acquisition is under review by the US antitrust authority.
Bouygues Construction
On 4th November 2025, the UK government announced that it had reached financial close relating to the two EPRs (European Pressurised Reactors) for the Sizewell C nuclear power station, in United Kingdom.
Sizewell C had previously announced on 30th June 2025 the formation of an Alliance, the Civil Works Alliance, with Bouygues Construction, Laing O’Rourke and Balfour Beatty to deliver the main civil works for the new power station.
The Civil Works Alliance (CWA), of which Bouygues Construction is a member through its subsidiary Bouygues Travaux Publics alongside other delivery partners, will be responsible for:
- Enabling works and earthworks.
- Marine and tunnelling works, including three 3km tunnels.
- Main civil engineering works, including the nuclear island, conventional island and pumping stations for each of the two units.
- Ancillary buildings, roads and permanent networks.
The scope of works will be carried out through the delivery of a series of 40 work orders which will be progressively agreed between the client and the CWA. In this context, Bouygues Construction will book the related orders as they are instructed, from the fourth quarter 2025. It is estimated that the share of Bouygues Construction’s involvement in the construction of Sizewell C will be worth around £3 billion (€3.3 billion).
Bouygues Telecom
On 30 July 2025, Bouygues Telecom and SFR announced that they had entered into exclusive negotiations with Phoenix Tower International with a view to selling it 100% of the capital and voting rights in Infracos, a joint venture created in 2014 by Bouygues Telecom and SFR within the scope of the so-called “Crozon” agreements for the roll-out and operation of shared mobile telecoms sites in the less dense areas of France. Bouygues Telecom and SFR each own 50% of Infracos. This divestment should have a positive impact of between €300 million and €350 million on the Group’s net debt. The transaction requires consultation with employee representative bodies, and is expected to be completed by the end of 2025 subject to the necessary administrative clearances from the competition authorities, Arcep (the French telecoms regulator) and the French minister in charge of foreign investments. These assets have not been classified under “Held-for-sale assets and operations” because they are not available for sale in their current state.
On 14 October 2025, Bouygues Telecom, Free-iliad Group and Orange announced that they had submitted a joint non-binding offer to acquire a large part of the telecommunications activities of the Altice group in France)21. It covered most of SFR’s assets, but excluded, in particular, stakes in Intelcia, UltraEdge, XP Fibre and Altice Technical Services, as well as the Altice group’s activities in French overseas departments and regions. This offer corresponded to a total enterprise value of €17 billion for the Altice group assets concerned in France, giving an indicative implied enterprise value for the whole of Altice France of more than €21 billion. On 15 October 2025, Bouygues Telecom, Free-iliad Group and Orange took note of the Altice group’s decision to reject their joint non-binding offer, submitted on 14 October. Bouygues Telecom, Free-iliad Group and Orange have maintained their offer and wish to engage in constructive dialogue with the Altice group and its shareholders in order to assess how this project could progress going forward22.
