WHICHEVER WAY<br />
YOU LOOK AT IT,<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> CONSTRUCTION<br />
HAS NO LIMITS.<br />
In an ever-changing world, you have to evolve to<br />
seize opportunities and generate growth. Over<br />
the decades, <strong>PORR</strong> has developed from a purely<br />
construction company into a multi-utility corporate<br />
group with many successful facets. The company<br />
units PPH, PTU, T-A and PS are now consolidated<br />
within the organisation of <strong>PORR</strong>.<br />
These days, business areas like financing, project<br />
development, infrastructure projects, real estate<br />
<strong>management</strong> and environmental technology are<br />
every bit as indispensable to our service portfolio<br />
as building construction. This comprehensive<br />
value chain enables us to maximise potential<br />
in diverse sectors and regions and open up new<br />
perspectives for the future. When you look at it<br />
from this angle, you will see there’s more to discover<br />
in <strong>PORR</strong> than ever before: we stand for<br />
construction unlimited.
THE SPORTING FACE OF <strong>PORR</strong>.<br />
THE 2008 EUROPEAN<br />
CHAMPIONSHIPS<br />
ALREADY HAS A WINNER.<br />
A SPECIALIST IN EVERY SENSE: Before you can claim to offer something special, you must<br />
have a perfect command of specialist areas. That’s because more and more construction<br />
projects for specific purposes demand specialist expertise, from planning to completion,<br />
facility <strong>management</strong> and utilisation. With our knack for implementing such a diversity of<br />
projects, we are a true specialist for every situation – and our experience and efficiency<br />
make us extremely competitive.<br />
The contract to upgrade the stadiums at Klagenfurt, Innsbruck and Salzburg provides an<br />
example of what we mean. Salzburg stadium is a multi-functional arena that needs to<br />
perform a number of functions: apart from the European football championships in 2008,<br />
it will also host rock concerts and motocross events. <strong>PORR</strong> triumphed in the bidding<br />
process partly because of its business proposal, and partly because of its ability to handle<br />
special constructional and technical requirements such as the covered stand, the<br />
artificial turf and the floodlighting. The 18,000-seater stadium opened in March 2003;<br />
by the time of the 2008 football tournament, further expansion will enable it to accommodate<br />
30,000 spectators.
THE FLEXIBLE FACE OF <strong>PORR</strong>.
WE BUILD STRUCTURES<br />
THAT HOUSE THE FUTURE.<br />
ACCELERATING DIVERSITY: Our wide-ranging service portfolio is<br />
extending the value chain; we are also making projects happen<br />
much faster thanks to the smooth coordination of all areas of<br />
the company. Given the networking of proficiency and expertise<br />
across the group, no challenge is too complex.<br />
The highly demanding Vienna Business & Science Park building<br />
construction project – conceived as a research and development<br />
centre – presented us with numerous technological and<br />
constructional obstacles to overcome. For example, the steel<br />
hall had to be built as a Faraday cage; powerful impedance<br />
coils needed to be housed in an 18-metre high wooden hall.<br />
Thanks to some faultless project development and planning,<br />
the general contractorship and the building construction of<br />
<strong>PORR</strong>, the halls – covering a total surface area of 13,000m 2 –<br />
were constructed in just 14 months. The specific needs of the<br />
client were met, to the letter and on schedule.
THE MOBILE FACE OF <strong>PORR</strong>.<br />
WHEN IT COMES TO RENOVATION, WE’RE ON THE RIGHT ROAD.<br />
FAST TRACK TO THE FUTURE: As a full-service supplier in the sectors of road construction, canal building and environmental<br />
protection as well as the field of sealing works, TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> ranks as a highly productive building block in the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group alongside the areas of building construction and civil engineering. Given the rising requirement for maintenance<br />
and renovation and the urgent need to upgrade the motorway network in central and eastern Europe, this is a road that leads<br />
to massive business potential in the years ahead.<br />
In connection with the large-scale renovation of the A1 Westautobahn motorway, a 13.4km section of road surface was upgraded;<br />
19 bridges within this building section were also overhauled, with seven new ones being built. Five water pollution prevention<br />
systems were installed, and 23,000 metres of drainage pipelines were laid. Maintaining the flow of traffic throughout the<br />
construction period was a particular challenge; this was achieved by setting up diversion routes at certain points.
THE STYLISH FACE OF <strong>PORR</strong>.<br />
WE INVEST IN PLACES<br />
THAT ARE GOING PLACES.<br />
We also believe in the build-it-yourself approach. The development<br />
and marketing of real estate is a logical and lucrative<br />
step for a construction company – not least because this is a<br />
way to exploit fresh potential for expansion, particularly in<br />
booming markets. After all, who better to build a property<br />
than the company that planned it?<br />
Working with a local partner company, <strong>PORR</strong> SOLUTIONS has<br />
resurrected a jewel of yesteryear: the Villa Neretva in Mostar.<br />
A new section has also expanded the usage possibilities of the<br />
building: providing a total area of 3,950m 2 , luxury apartments,<br />
office space and catering premises are ready to be marketed.<br />
Doubly satisfying is the fact that the Villa Neretva stands as a<br />
symbol of the regeneration of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS<br />
DEAR SHAREHOLDERS AND<br />
VALUED BUSINESS PARTNERS OF <strong>PORR</strong>,<br />
Development for our markets was highly encouraging in 2005, with the substantial public<br />
investment backlog steadily converting into concrete demand.<br />
Growth rates on the construction market in Austria are outpacing average levels; in Germany,<br />
where staffing levels halved following the short-lived post-reunification boom, the first signs of<br />
recovery are emerging; building production is running at over 5% p.a. in the new EU member<br />
states. The EU accession candidates are also raising their levels of public and private investment.<br />
In central Europe, a region in which we are active, growth is likely to remain above average<br />
on balance for the next 10 to 15 years.<br />
From a strategic and structural viewpoint, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group is ready to meet these exciting<br />
challenges. We are continually expanding our presence on these expanding markets. Thanks<br />
to an organisational structure adapted to the needs of the market, an effective cost and risk<br />
<strong>management</strong> system and a policy of selective acquisition, we will be in a position to raise our<br />
profitability.<br />
Our Group structure and organisational framework have also been enhanced as planned. Various<br />
elements have been permanently tightened or simplified with a view to improving results and<br />
cost monitoring; we have also invested significantly in grouping the operations centres of all<br />
subsidiaries within the Vienna district. This will facilitate and raise efficiency in terms of material<br />
planning, device <strong>management</strong> and logistics.<br />
Demand is set to rise in the area of infrastructure. Power plant construction is certain to undergo<br />
a renaissance in the years ahead, and private investors will be putting their money into offices<br />
and industrial plant. This means that we will have the opportunity to optimise our construction<br />
capacity whilst bringing to bear our 137 years of experience in project development. In both<br />
the public and private sectors, investors prefer to rent properties rather than act as owner; we<br />
will be well placed increasingly to play the role of investor, as we have always done on occasion<br />
in the past.<br />

During 2005, we established the preconditions for this by enhancing our financial structure.<br />
Efforts continue to improve our equity ratio still further.<br />
Allgemeine Baugesellschaft – A. Porr <strong>AG</strong> issued two bonds in the first half of 2005. In April,<br />
an Asset Linked Porr Security (ALPS) bond was issued as a private placement with institutional<br />
investors at a nominal value of €72 million; the quoted corporate bond with a volume of<br />
€100 million was issued in June. This enabled us to shift a large part of the Group’s bank<br />
liabilities from the short-term to the long-term area and thereby guarantee financial backing for<br />
our long-term corporate strategy. At the end of 2005, the level of short-term bank liabilities<br />
(€187.4 million) was 55% below the previous year’s value.<br />
On the basis of the positive earnings situation, the equity ratio of the Group also improved<br />
from 15.3% to 16.4%. The <strong>PORR</strong> Group belongs to the top division of industrial construction<br />
companies with an EBIT margin of 2.7%.<br />
As of 31 st March 2006, our order balance stood at €1.93 billion. Our proficient and motivated<br />
industrial and salaried employees are working to high capacity at home and abroad in pursuit of<br />
their primary aim of customer satisfaction. We would like to thank our customers, many of whom<br />
are long-established, for their positive cooperation and their trust.<br />
We would also like to thank our shareholders. We will do everything in our power to repay their<br />
commitment by delivering outstanding performance in a challenging sector.<br />
Finally, we would like to express our appreciation of the highly cooperative relationship with the<br />
employee representatives, who consistently support our corporate objectives in a constructive<br />
manner.<br />

THE RIGHT CORPORATE STRUCTURE FOR THE MARKET<br />
The organisational alignment of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group is continually adapting to changing market<br />
conditions and the needs of our customers. The various company areas are coordinated through<br />
the holding company, Allgemeine Baugesellschaft – A. Porr Aktiengesellschaft.<br />
The founding of the two national sector-specific subsidiaries Porr Technobau und Umwelt <strong>AG</strong> (in<br />
1989) and Porr Projekt und Hochbau <strong>AG</strong> (in 1994) laid the foundation for the current structure<br />
of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group. Amalgamating domestic and foreign activities for a particular sector makes it<br />
possible to respond quickly and effectively to demand levels on a particular market. An alignment<br />
along sectoral lines also supports the attainment of high expertise: know-how is developed as a<br />
package rather than in parallel across several regions. The coordination of cross-sector subsidiary<br />
activity was further optimised by the establishment of Porr GmbH in 2004.<br />
The long-held Group tradition of real estate development was revived in 1992 through UBM,<br />
which until that point had only been responsible for administrative functions. In order to improve<br />
the structure of the consolidated balance sheet, the share in UBM was reduced to below 50% in<br />
2004, and this corporate area was subsequently deconsolidated. Despite this, the productive<br />
partnership between <strong>PORR</strong> and UBM will continue as before to the benefit of both parties.<br />

“I can only compare the<br />
current demand situation in our<br />
sector to that which existed after<br />
the second world war”<br />
DIRECTOR GENERAL HORST PÖCHHACKER ON THE OVERALL POTENTIAL<br />
IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY AND HOW <strong>PORR</strong> CAN BENEFIT.<br />
Some years ago, the members of the<br />
European Union agreed a growth and<br />
stability pact, which later metamorphosed<br />
into merely a stability pact because of the<br />
reluctance of the public sector to invest.<br />
This was the start of a downward spiral<br />
which also discouraged companies from<br />
investing. The result of that trend is the<br />
massive investment backlog that we see<br />
today. In western Europe, it is mainly infrastructure<br />
and energy projects that urgently<br />
require completion; in the east of Europe,<br />
there is demand in virtually all sectors.<br />
Taking account of the usual regional and<br />
sector-specific fluctuations, I calculate<br />
that overall demand levels will remain high<br />
for the next 10 to 15 years. I can only<br />
compare the magnitude of the current<br />
demand situation to that which existed<br />
after the second world war.<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group is ideally placed to maximise<br />
this market potential. In additional to<br />
our traditional field of construction, we<br />
have successfully positioned ourselves in<br />
recent years as an expert partner for complex<br />
projects, operator models and franchise<br />
models. This is where I perceive the main<br />
potential of <strong>PORR</strong> for the future. We have<br />
already carried out critical preparatory<br />
work in this regard by establishing <strong>PORR</strong><br />
SOLUTIONS, which has provided the focal<br />
point for project development expertise<br />
across the Group. At the same time, of<br />
course, we remain active as a conventional<br />
construction company. By extending the<br />
value chain to include elements requiring<br />
high levels of know-how, we are setting<br />
ourselves apart from the competition whilst<br />
raising our profitability. It is therefore<br />
important to secure this know-how along<br />
with a differentiated system of risk <strong>management</strong>.<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group has demonstrated<br />
a strong ability to cope with such<br />
challenges on many occasions in the past.<br />
We were, for example, one of the first<br />
organisations to identify the opportunities<br />
offered by the emerging economies of<br />
eastern Europe; today, this region is a firm<br />
part of our extended home market. Our<br />
corporate structures are also tracking the<br />
rapid development trends that characterise<br />
our markets and our customers. With our<br />
robust sectoral structure, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group<br />
today ranks as a flexible and versatile<br />
corporate group – one that pursues a<br />
consistent and considered path of expansion,<br />
and one that is quick to pinpoint<br />
and utilise the indicators and opportunities<br />
of the day.<br />

In 2000, <strong>PORR</strong> considerably expanded its production volume in road construction by gaining a<br />
shareholding in TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong>. This participation since been expanded to around 52.5%,<br />
giving <strong>PORR</strong> the industrial <strong>management</strong> of the company.<br />
During fiscal year 2005, the integration of WIBEBA (acquired late in 2004) was completed. This<br />
company’s operational units have been gradually merged into the corresponding areas of the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group.<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group established a new and nationally active project development company known<br />
as Porr Solutions Immobilien- und Infrastrukturprojekte GmbH (PS) during the first half of 2005.<br />
Two companies which had been involved in project development for many years – Porr Immoprojekt<br />
GmbH and Porr Infrastruktur GmbH – were amalgamated to form this wholly-owned<br />
subsidiary, thereby merging their respective areas of expertise. The areas PT&S (26% shareholding<br />
of PS specialising in construction, planning and project <strong>management</strong>) and FMA (50% shareholding<br />
of PT&S specialising in total facility <strong>management</strong>) have also been assigned to project<br />
development.<br />
INTERNATIONAL PRESENCE<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group has always operated well beyond the<br />
domestic borders of Austria. The countries of central, eastern<br />
and southern Europe are currently gaining in significance on<br />
account of their above-average rates of growth. The <strong>PORR</strong><br />
Group has been represented in Hungary, the Czech Republic,<br />
Slovakia and Poland for many years.<br />
During fiscal year 2005, inroads were made into the markets<br />
of the constituent states of the former Yugoslavia, with<br />
subsidiaries established in Zagreb, Belgrade, Sarajevo and<br />
Banja Luka. Projects have also been successfully realised in<br />
Slovenia, Croatia, Lithuania, Romania and Bulgaria. Italy<br />
and Ukraine are currently under assessment.<br />

CORPORATE STRATEGY<br />
OVERVIEW OF STRATEGIC PRIORITIES<br />
_ Place quality of production output before quantity<br />
_ Place long-term corporate governance ahead of short-term increases in earnings<br />
_ Develop the highest level of expertise<br />
_ Reduce simple construction business in favour of a greater share in complex<br />
projects that fewer competitors are able to realise<br />
_ Raise involvement in projects delivering a yield over many years in order<br />
to ensure a basic level of revenue in times of low demand<br />
_ Expand market presence to level out fluctuations in demand and ensure<br />
utilisation of specialist expertise<br />
_ Focus exclusively on European markets<br />
MARKET FOCUS<br />
The corporate structures of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group<br />
are specifically designed to reflect the<br />
requirements and conditions on our various<br />
geographical markets and sectors. The four<br />
company areas enable us to pool our knowhow<br />
and proficiency in the sectors of building<br />
construction, civil engineering, road construction<br />
and project development. Porr GmbH<br />
was set up to coordinate cross-sector subsidiary<br />
business; the Group’s project development<br />
expertise is concentrated in <strong>PORR</strong><br />
SOLUTIONS (founded in 2005), in which the<br />
subsidiaries PPH and PTU hold shares.<br />
SERVICE PORTFOLIO<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group has successfully positioned itself as a multi-utility group covering every need of<br />
the modern-day construction industry. In addition to the traditional field of building construction,<br />
the project development area (which includes stock maintenance, property development, planning<br />
and facility <strong>management</strong>) is becoming increasingly important. The seamless networking of<br />
subsidiaries organised according to sector enables us to implement complex projects from a single<br />
source. As a result, <strong>PORR</strong> is increasingly fulfilling the role of reliable partner in operator and<br />
franchise projects, more and more of which are being launched in response to brisk investment<br />
activity in the infrastructure/energy area at a time when public budgets are limited.<br />
CORPORATE MAN<strong>AG</strong>EMENT<br />
As a strategic holding company, <strong>PORR</strong> <strong>AG</strong> is responsible for overall control of the subsidiaries.<br />
Agreement is reached with the <strong>management</strong> committees of the ancillary companies at regular<br />
coordination meetings. Members of the <strong>PORR</strong> <strong>AG</strong> executive board are also represented on the<br />
supervisory committees of the subsidiaries and majority holdings. To facilitate fast decisionmaking,<br />
the executive boards and managing directors of the respective companies take responsibility<br />
for operational corporate <strong>management</strong>; their decisions are informed by general Group<br />
guidelines.<br />

“We want to grow in terms<br />
of quality, not quantity”<br />
DEPUTY DIRECTOR GENERAL WOLFGANG HESOUN ON THE SELECTIVE<br />
EXPANSION POLICY AND THE HIGH-POTENTIAL BUSINESS AREAS OF <strong>PORR</strong>.<br />
Alongside the German-speaking region,<br />
which we define as our core market, the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group has established a highly<br />
successful presence in central, eastern and<br />
southern Europe. In 2005, projects were<br />
launched and branch offices were founded<br />
in the constituent states of the former<br />
Yugoslavia for the first time. Although we<br />
are at a very early stage in Romania,<br />
Bulgaria and Ukraine, we are convinced of<br />
the long-term potential of these markets.<br />
However, our efforts to expand are not<br />
driven by a simple desire to grow in terms<br />
of size. We want to expand by selectively<br />
developing projects that allow us to apply<br />
our expertise in as many diverse – and,<br />
above all, profitable – ways as possible. This<br />
policy will require us to take stock of our<br />
situation at certain intervals and accept that<br />
periods of consolidation will be necessary.<br />
The huge potential of our existing markets<br />
means that we won’t need to experiment in<br />
exotic regions; we can already count on<br />
expansion during the years ahead. I believe<br />
there is a massive backlog in the infrastructure<br />
and energy area, even if the realisation<br />
of projects in these areas will vary<br />
from region to region. For example, in<br />
western Europe, where energy supply<br />
companies are in a position to make their<br />
own investments, we can continue to position<br />
ourselves as an expert partner for<br />
implementation. It is a different situation<br />
in the east and southeast of Europe, where<br />
there is simply a lack of funds. In this<br />
region, it is up to us to seize the opportunities<br />
and present ourselves as a reliable<br />
project manager. Needless to say, financial<br />
and planning aspects become critical given<br />
the long-term nature of such projects.<br />
On the other hand, from the viewpoint of<br />
long-term corporate <strong>management</strong>, an<br />
extended timeframe ensures long-term<br />
revenue, which can compensate for any<br />
fluctuations in the overall orders situation.<br />
On many past occasions, we have demonstrated<br />
beyond doubt that <strong>PORR</strong> possesses<br />
the expertise needed to run operator<br />
models and franchise models. To give just<br />
one example, we are currently realising a<br />
section of around 59km on the M6 motorway<br />
between Budapest and Dunaùjvaros in<br />
the form of a public-private partnership<br />
project.<br />

“We are doing everything possible to<br />
enhance our financing structure”<br />
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR HELMUT MAYER ON THE<br />
ONGOING EFFORTS OF THE <strong>PORR</strong> GROUP TO IMPROVE THE BALANCE SHEET<br />
AND FINANCING STRUCTURES.<br />
Until fairly recently, it was easy for a<br />
construction group of our size and reputation<br />
to secure financing for projects and<br />
proposals with relatively favourable, shortterm<br />
borrowed funds. Now that the lending<br />
policy of the banks has changed in the<br />
wake of the Basel II agreement, the organisation<br />
and maturity profile of our financing<br />
structure has become increasingly important.<br />
With the instrument of raising capital<br />
no longer available, our first step was to<br />
deconsolidate UBM Realitätenentwicklung<br />
<strong>AG</strong>; by reducing our share to below 50%,<br />
we were able to cut the consolidated<br />
financial liabilities of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group<br />
significantly. The simultaneous reduction<br />
in bank liabilities that we accomplished<br />
through our own efforts – which included<br />
reassessing the real estate portfolio –<br />
improved the equity ratio, including minority<br />
shares, from 13.5% to the current level<br />
of 16.4% over the last two years.<br />
The next step was to issue two bonds: a<br />
structured bond followed in June 2005 by<br />
a corporate bond. These measures enabled<br />
us to optimise and amend our financing<br />
sources at a fundamental level whilst<br />
preparing the ground for further capital<br />
measures.<br />
Another strategic priority was to improve<br />
our profitability. At an operational level, we<br />
pursued this aim with a policy of selective<br />
order acquisition. Internally, we needed to<br />
bring about greater efficiency and resource<br />
planning. New software solutions have<br />
resulted in significant successes in the<br />
accounting and IT areas; the establishment<br />
of the Group Treasury has optimised<br />
the raising and application of financial<br />
resources.<br />
We are also proud of our successes in the<br />
field of personnel. In 2005, following years<br />
of preparatory work and intensive dialogue<br />
with employee representatives, we finalised<br />
a collective agreement between the <strong>management</strong><br />
and the works council. This<br />
agreement not only bridges traditional<br />
disparities, but also defines the first uniform<br />
remuneration and social model for<br />
all employees of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group. The<br />
pension fund model that it creates accords<br />
with the Group strategy of sustainable<br />
development.<br />

“We need sound structures to<br />
achieve successful growth”<br />
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR PETER WEBER ON<br />
EXPANSION PRECONDITIONS, INTEGRATION AND<br />
CONTROLLING MEASURES.<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group is pursuing a strategy of<br />
measured expansion; we cannot grow faster<br />
than our own structures will allow, and nor<br />
would we wish to. We are highly cautious<br />
when it comes to developing new markets;<br />
we become familiar with these markets<br />
step by step, carrying out specific projects<br />
and keeping the associated risks manageable<br />
at all times. Only when we are sufficiently<br />
familiar with a market do we set up<br />
our own permanent structures and introduce<br />
a comprehensive marketing plan. As<br />
our sphere of action grows, personnel and<br />
resource <strong>management</strong> becomes critical. We<br />
cannot hope to complete projects successfully<br />
unless we have secured access to the<br />
necessary qualified personnel and a supply<br />
of raw materials – things that we cannot<br />
take for granted in some eastern European<br />
countries. During the year under review, we<br />
tightened the organisation of our resource<br />
<strong>management</strong> across the Group, and we are<br />
currently developing a strategy for widening<br />
these business areas.<br />
Owing to the geographical and sectoral<br />
expansion of our operating network, our<br />
operational <strong>report</strong>ing and control system<br />
is gaining in importance. During the <strong>report</strong>ing<br />
year, we implemented a value-based<br />
risk <strong>management</strong> system with a view to<br />
counteracting adverse developments as<br />
early as possible. Cost accounting, budgeting<br />
and financial accounting data is entered<br />
into a complex model, which utilises a<br />
sophisticated key data catalogue to provide<br />
an excellent early warning system. This is<br />
integrated into a standardised <strong>report</strong>ing<br />
system, which produces a monthly assessment<br />
of the company’s situation.<br />
Another key strategic focus of 2005 was<br />
the integration of WIBEBA, which was<br />
acquired at the end of 2004. The main<br />
areas have now been merged into the<br />
relevant areas of <strong>PORR</strong>, and the operational<br />
units have been relocated to their<br />
respective positions in the <strong>PORR</strong> Group.<br />
Subject to temporary provisions, the<br />
new collective agreement between the<br />
<strong>management</strong> and works council of the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group will apply to all staff members<br />
of WIBEBA. The new standard service<br />
regulations came into force across the<br />
group following years of preparatory work.<br />

RISK MAN<strong>AG</strong>EMENT ACROSS THE GROUP<br />
A group-wide risk <strong>management</strong> system – ideally matched to the specific needs of the <strong>PORR</strong><br />
Group – was implemented in fiscal year 2005. Based on a value-oriented model, cost accounting,<br />
budgeting and financial accounting data is entered into a key data catalogue which acts as<br />
an early warning system. A specialist team known as Operational Controlling supports the various<br />
business areas; the same team is responsible for developing controlling know-how in the operational<br />
areas. Controlling tasks and measures for the construction sites and business areas are<br />
defined in a comprehensive set of guidelines; compliance with and performance of these is<br />
monitored within the framework of formalised advisory council <strong>report</strong>s and coordination meetings.<br />
The measures are backed up by a standardised <strong>report</strong>ing system, which produces a monthly<br />
assessment of the company’s situation based on business-related data and notes and enables<br />
adverse developments to be forestalled at an early stage.<br />
GEOGRAPHICAL EXPANSION<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group has operated on the flourishing markets of central, eastern and southern<br />
Europe for decades. We generally move into new markets by carrying out small-scale projects at<br />
first; in this way we familiarise ourselves with local conditions and requirements whilst keeping<br />
risk to a minimum. Permanent company structures are only established when the general level of<br />
market potential justifies a longer-term commitment. The <strong>PORR</strong> Group is not currently considering<br />
a move into underdeveloped markets in Europe or markets outside of Europe. The only exceptions<br />
to this rule are low-risk deliveries and services in collaboration with our global partners.<br />
ACQUISITION POLICY<br />
The expansion strategy of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group does not involve raising production output at any<br />
cost. Corporate acquisitions are only made where these offer better-than-average opportunities<br />
for growth and yield; in other words, to buy in additional expertise, open up new sectoral or<br />
geographical markets or boost activity in specific business areas. Projects of this kind are carried<br />
out by the holding company itself or in close cooperation with the holding company; risk <strong>management</strong><br />
is applied.<br />
In order to avoid the duplication of activities and deploy available resources as effectively as<br />
possible, contract and project acquisition is coordinated internally. Regional and national<br />
company units must act in full agreement and cooperation.<br />

UTILISING MARKET DEVELOPMENTS<br />
Allowing for the usual variations in different regions and sectors, years of insufficient investment<br />
have ensured that levels of demand on our central and eastern European markets will remain<br />
generally satisfactory for the next few years. The demand that exists in all sectors in the new and<br />
prospective EU member states will add to the infrastructure and energy-related backlog in the<br />
15 old member states. Given that there are no indications of any long-term change in the restrictive<br />
budgetary policies of public authorities, alternative sources of finance such as public-private<br />
partnerships and franchise models are becoming more important. We have already acquired the<br />
necessary know-how in relation to these financing models (and a contract awards process that is<br />
becoming ever more complicated) through <strong>PORR</strong> SOLUTIONS and the centrally managed finance<br />
department of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group.<br />
OPTIMISING THE FINANCE STRUCTURE<br />
Now that the lending policy of the banks has changed in the wake of the Basel II agreement,<br />
conditions for the external financing of projects have become less favourable owing to the poor<br />
equity capitalisation of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group. For this reason, a realignment of financing structures<br />
and sources has been a strategic priority of recent years. One milestone in this objective was the<br />
deconsolidation of UBM, whose balance sheet structure had been notable for high liabilities in<br />
connection with project development business. Our balance sheet structure and maturity profile<br />
were further enhanced during fiscal year 2005 by means of project sales and the issue of bonds.<br />
Compared to the previous year, payables to banks were cut by €211 million in 2005. The equity<br />
ratio (including minority shares) of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group rose from 15.3% to 16.4% by the end of<br />
2005. Recent capital procurement measures should improve the financing structure still further.<br />
These initiatives will also ensure that we can react flexibly (and, more importantly, quickly) to<br />
acquisition opportunities that may arise.<br />

COMPANY PROFILE<br />
Porr Technobau und Umwelt <strong>AG</strong> (PTU) is responsible for the civil engineering activities of the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group in the fields of engineering construction, environmental technology and resource<br />
<strong>management</strong>; it also manages operator and franchise models for those sectors. The close<br />
cooperation between national departments and regional cross-sector subsidiaries ensures that<br />
our specialist know-how and regional presence are retained and expanded. This is our basis for<br />
business success, along with our highly qualified staff and the standards of quality we maintain.<br />
Specialist departments provide expertise predominantly in the sectors of foundations, tunnel<br />
construction, power plant construction, railway construction, bridge construction, environmental<br />
technology and prestressing technology. Both at home and abroad, we are offering more and<br />
more operator and franchise models in the areas of road construction and waste disposal and in<br />
connection with various industrial plant projects. Our rock, gravel and landfill resources guarantee<br />
long-term market opportunities and reduce our dependence on external sources of raw materials.<br />

SERVICE PORTFOLIO<br />
Engineering construction<br />
Civil engineering services are delivered nationally through the Civil Engineering Projects<br />
department, regionally (in Austria) through the Vienna office and Porr GmbH and internationally<br />
through the respective PTU companies abroad.<br />
The Civil Engineering Projects department operates in the fields of underground railway construction,<br />
motorway and expressway construction, bridge construction, energy engineering and power plant<br />
construction. In November 2005, the Bindermichl project unit on the A7 “Mühlkreis” motorway<br />
was handed over on schedule. Much of the construction work on project unit U 2/5 (Stadion) in<br />
connection with the Vienna underground railway project has been completed; contracts for the units<br />
U 2/6 (Donaumarina) and U2/10(Aspernstrasse) were secured in December 2005 following a lengthy<br />
awards procedure. Our Vienna office performs the full range of engineering construction and civil<br />
engineering tasks at regional and municipal level in Vienna and its environs. Its remit includes<br />
everything from bridges, car parks and industrial plant to sewer pipes and district heating pipelines.

Railway construction<br />
The railway construction area fulfils contracts for rail-related constructions such as railway<br />
bridges, underpasses and stations as well as substructure works and track construction work. The<br />
“reinforced track” system developed by <strong>PORR</strong> in collaboration with Austrian Federal Railways<br />
continues to constitute a technologically significant specialist area. The focus of activity in 2005<br />
was on the four-track extension of the Westbahn line around the Linz–St. Pölten–Tullnerfeld<br />
areas. Wide-ranging construction work is also in progress in connection with the expansion and<br />
redevelopment of the underground rail station at Schwechat airport. Another major sales generator<br />
in 2005 was the “track construction for Bosnia” project involving the Bradina–Konjic and<br />
Josavka–Banja Luka lines. The “Jedrinje tunnel” contract has already been secured for 2006.<br />
FAST-TRACK TECHNOLOGY<br />
Specialist civil engineering<br />
The Foundations department delivers specialist civil engineering services such as bored piles,<br />
diaphragm walls, insulation walls, drilling and injection tasks and pile driving work. Through the<br />
PTU branch offices, contracts are also gained beyond the borders of Austria; the company is<br />
particularly active in Hungary. In future, we plan to develop the Hungarian market by establishing<br />
a separate foundations department within Porr Budapest Kft. In Sri Lanka, the bulk of the work<br />
on the pile foundations of Waagner Biró bridges was successfully concluded as a one-off project.<br />
SUCCESS IN BOTH<br />
AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY<br />
Tunnel construction<br />
The tunnel construction sector is now benefiting from significant growth impetus in Austria. Investment<br />
in the expansion of the rail and road network – and further investment on the part of energy<br />
suppliers – will ensure a steady stream of contracts over the coming years. Porr Tunnelbau GmbH is<br />
ideally placed to meet these challenges. In 2005, technically complex tunnel driving work involving<br />
artificial icing technology and injection engineering continued in Vienna on the underground railway<br />
U 2/1 project unit (Schottenring). Tunnel driving for the Wiental main sewer was brought to a highly<br />
successful conclusion in April; proceeding at 36 metres per day, we achieved a world first in tunnel<br />
driving with a large EPB shield. Two tunnelling machines were constructed for the “Wienerwald<br />
tunnel” project; these were put into operation in autumn 2005. The Lötschberg base tunnel project<br />
linked to the MaTrans joint venture, also neared completion in 2005.<br />

THE HIDDEN FACE OF <strong>PORR</strong>.
SOME OF OUR TECHNICAL<br />
MASTERPIECES NEVER SEE THE<br />
LIGHT OF DAY.<br />
GROWING IN EVERY DIRECTION MEANS HEADING UNDERGROUND:<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> can also point to a long company tradition in the field of<br />
tunnel construction. For 137 years, we have been gaining the<br />
kind of invaluable experiences that make us such an innovative<br />
company today. No wonder our technical solutions are in such<br />
high demand.<br />
Built by <strong>PORR</strong> TUNNELBAU, the Wiental main sewer relief channel<br />
is a masterpiece of classical engineering, running for 2.6 kilometres<br />
at a depth of 30 metres below the heart of Vienna. For tunnel<br />
driving, we used a shield tunnel boring machine with an impressive<br />
diameter of 8.60 metres: a mere number to some, but an ideal<br />
solution at the cutting edge of technology to our customers.

SECURING THE SUPPLY<br />
OF RAW MATERIALS<br />
Environmental technology<br />
Within the framework of the Budgetbegleitgesetz legislation of 2003 (a series of legal measures<br />
aimed at supporting the labour market opportunities of older employees), an amendment was<br />
passed to the Contaminated Sites Clean-up Act. This introduced an increase in charges for contaminated<br />
sites and the liability to pay charges on incinerated waste. On the basis of the associated<br />
budgetary surplus of the federal government, we are working on the assumption that subsidies for<br />
hazardous site remediation will remain available. The strategy of Porr Umwelttechnik GmbH is to<br />
establish the longest possible value chain. For this reason, whilst developing resources for treating<br />
inorganic waste in particular, the company continues to pursue and acquire complex restoration<br />
projects. These include the restoration of the TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> Simmering site and the restoration<br />
of the Angeler pit in the Neustadt area of Vienna, which commenced in January 2006.<br />
Resources<br />
Thanks to Schotter- und Betonwerk Karl Schwarzl Betriebsgesellschaft m.b.H., a wholly-owned<br />
subsidiary of <strong>PORR</strong> under the industrial <strong>management</strong> of PTU, we can remain largely independent<br />
of external rock and concrete resources. Operating five quarries and three gravel pits in Austria, four<br />
gravel pits in Germany and a total of 15 concrete manufacturing plants in Austria, Hungary and<br />
Croatia, Schwarzl is a key player in this field. A major exploration for raw materials began in southeastern<br />
Europe in 2005 to ensure we are ready for the large-scale building projects of the future.<br />

GEOGRAPHICAL PRESENCE<br />
Austria<br />
Porr GmbH – through which branch offices are managed in Lower Austria, Upper Austria,<br />
Salzburg, Tyrol, Styria and Carinthia – positioned itself effectively in 2005, its first year of<br />
business. Under the joint <strong>management</strong> of PTU and PPH, Porr GmbH functions as a cross-sector<br />
company in the fields of regional building construction and civil engineering. The company also<br />
performs a certain level of intensive construction-related project development. The contract to<br />
build the stadium in Klagenfurt – which attracted widespread media coverage – was secured in<br />
mid-2005. This led to follow-up orders for stadium redevelopments in Innsbruck and Salzburg.<br />
At the end of 2005, Vorspanntechnik GmbH & Co KG (VT) joined the new franchise company<br />
BBR-VT International <strong>AG</strong>. In addition to its globally recognised brands, BBR provides a licensee<br />

network encompassing over 40 countries; VT can contribute the technology of the VT strand posttensioning<br />
system and CMM technology.<br />
Germany<br />
The situation on the German construction market is still uncertain. For this reason, Porr Technobau<br />
und Umwelt GmbH, which has offices in Berlin and Munich, limits itself to performing<br />
selected technically demanding engineering construction and power plant construction projects,<br />
accepting falls in turnover in favour of profitability. A similar policy is pursued by Betzold<br />
Rohrbau GmbH & Co KG, which operates in the fields of gas, water and district heating pipeline<br />
installation from its offices in Nuremberg.<br />
Switzerland<br />
Porr Suisse GmbH asserted itself well in a tough market environment in 2005. The main<br />
operational emphases in the central Switzerland region were on the Portaldach Hergiswil site and<br />
noise protection projects on the Zug–Gotthard railway line. A noise protection project for the<br />
Hardturm stadium in Zurich was completed, whilst the General Contractor department finished<br />
renovating the Embassy of Qatar in partnership with PPH. Measures to counter the occurrence<br />
of lifting tunnel invert in the Chiemberg tunnel were also completed by Porr Tunnelbau GmbH<br />
in 2005.<br />
Hungary<br />
During the main construction phase in 2005, output reached a peak on the project unit for<br />
the M6 Budapest–Dunaujvaros motorway, which extends for over 58.6km. Two thousand workers<br />
installed 80,000 cubic metres of imported fill every day; 550 trucks were deployed; seven asphalt<br />
mixing plants produced a total output of 760 tonnes per hour.<br />

MOTORWAY CONSTRUCTION<br />
Porr Budapest Kft. has positioned itself well on the Hungarian market. Having supplied a wide<br />
range of road building, bridge construction and sound barrier installation services in connection<br />
with the M6 project, another motorway project unit – the M0 east sector, unit 2 – was acquired<br />
towards the end of the year. Porr was also contracted during the <strong>report</strong>ing year to carry out<br />
construction work on a station stop for the Budapest Metro (line 4).<br />
Southeastern Europe<br />
Business activity in eastern and southeastern Europe expanded steadily during 2005. A contract<br />
to erect a cable-stayed bridge over the River Drava in Ptuj, Slovenia, was signed in September. In<br />
Bosnia and Herzegovina, most of the work was completed in relation to two track construction<br />
orders in the Republic of Srpska. Structural shell work for the 21-storey Zagreb Tower proceeded<br />
according to plan in Croatia; a topping-out ceremony took place in April 2006. In Serbia,<br />
Romania and Bulgaria, tenders were submitted for projects in the fields of infrastructure (road<br />
and rail construction), environment (waste utilisation, waste disposal sites) and energy/hydraulic<br />
engineering (power stations). Negotiations have proved to be extremely complex and remain<br />
incomplete in some cases.<br />
BUILDING PRESENCE<br />
OUTLOOK<br />
Securing core business whilst prudently expanding the foreign markets are the strategic pillars of<br />
Porr Technobau und Umwelt <strong>AG</strong>. The further education and training of staff is a particular priority<br />
in terms of maintaining high quality standards. These strategic objectives are supported by<br />
continual adjustments to the organisation of the operational and commercial law framework.<br />

EXPERTISE<br />
SERVICE PORTFOLIO<br />
Construction processing remains one of the central areas of PPH expertise. In the field of high-rise<br />
building construction in particular, PPH has developed into one of central Europe’s leading<br />
suppliers in recent years. However, the company also generates considerable volume in hotel<br />
and residential construction, office construction, industrial building projects and revitalisation<br />
measures.<br />
Project planning<br />
In a field that is closely related to building construction, we also deal with every aspect of the<br />
architectural and structural engineering planning of construction projects. We support our clients<br />
at every stage, from the design and economic assessment of a building project to assistance with<br />
running buildings.<br />
Project development<br />
The project development tasks of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group were brought together within Porr Solutions<br />
Immobilien- und Infrastrukturprojekte GmbH in fiscal year 2005. PPH cooperates closely with<br />
this company (in which it holds a participating interest) as a construction services provider at the<br />
design and performance stages. Projects in Vienna and Hamburg are currently in progress.<br />

At the end of 2005, PPH had established a presence on the markets of Austria, Germany,<br />
Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia and Romania. We also moved into the<br />
markets of the constituent states of the former Yugoslavia during the year under review; in<br />
partnership with sister company Porr Technobau und Umwelt <strong>AG</strong> (PTU), subsidiaries were set<br />
up in Zagreb, Belgrade, Sarajevo and Banja Luka. We are currently assessing and planning our<br />
entry onto the highly promising Ukrainian market.<br />
GROWING PRESENCE<br />
Austria<br />
Although our geographical presence is expanding, Austria continues to account for a large<br />
proportion of our business. The most notable of many projects in 2005 included the VIP and<br />
Aviation Center at Schwechat airport, the completion of new residential construction units for<br />
Monte Laa and a privately financed property for the Federal Ministry for Education, Science and<br />
Culture at Marchettigasse.<br />
PRESENCE IN AUSTRIA<br />
OPTIMISED BY <strong>PORR</strong> GMBH<br />
The Viennese branch office of PPH also operates successfully in the sector of revitalisation,<br />
renovation and refurbishment. A high level of expertise was required, for example, in the<br />
development and conversion of the “boiler house courtyard” at the Hofburg, the revitalisation<br />
of the listed Schloss Hof castle and the renovation of the Ehamgasse residential complex.<br />
The branch offices of Porr GmbH, the joint subsidiary of PPH and PTU founded in 2004,<br />
positioned themselves successfully on the market during the year under review. Porr GmbH<br />
brings together the branch offices of its parent organisations in the federal states of Lower<br />
Austria, Upper Austria, Salzburg, Tyrol, Styria and Carinthia. The growth in output achieved by<br />
the aforementioned corporate units underlines the success of the strategic merger. The respective<br />
specialists of PPH and PTU will continue to work on specific large-scale and specialist<br />
construction projects.<br />

WE THRIVE ON CHALLENGE.<br />
WE CAN SEE THE POSITIVE FACE OF EVERY COUNTRY: Alongside Austria, Germany and Switzerland, the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group has been working successfully for many years in the fast-expanding countries of central<br />
and eastern Europe. When it comes to large-scale projects in particular, our service portfolio knows no<br />
boundaries. Wherever they are, our customers can count on a comprehensive range of high-level services.<br />
To give one example, the “Business Technology Park” office construction project at Chodov (near<br />
Prague) has demonstrated our effortless ability to realise highly complex projects beyond our own<br />
borders. Within twelve months of the contract signing in January 2002, the first tenants were taking<br />
up residence. This achievement was underlined by a series of follow-up orders: various constructions<br />
have since been realised (sometimes simultaneously), including the European data centre for logistics<br />
group DHL. This project will gradually expand over the coming years to encompass a final gross floor<br />
area of 200,000 square metres.

FOCUS ON RESIDENTIAL<br />
CONSTRUCTION<br />
Germany<br />
In fiscal year 2005, Munich-based Porr Aktiengesellschaft contended with a German construction<br />
market that remains in decline. In Munich, high vacancy rates in office buildings led to a<br />
shift in focus to residential construction. Turnkey projects are in progress in the new city development<br />
regions of Arnulfpark, Neue Messestadt Riem (on the site of the old airport) and the Unterbiberg<br />
district of Munich. In Hamburg, properties linked to the new Hafencity development were<br />
handed over on schedule; in a follow-up order, we have been contracted to build a new turnkey<br />
property at Neuer Wall, also in Hamburg.<br />
POLAND EMERGES AS<br />
KEY FOREIGN MARKET<br />
Northeastern Europe<br />
During the fiscal year, Poland accounted for around 16% of PPH construction output, making it<br />
the strongest foreign market. The turnaround that began in the previous year is now a fullyfledged<br />
trend: we have been responsible for realising complex large-scale properties in the residential,<br />
office construction and industrial construction fields. Having realised the first section of<br />
a major shopping centre in Posen to the satisfaction of the building owner, the contract to complete<br />
the second section is particularly significant. On the basis of a healthy orders situation, we<br />
expect Porr (Polska) S.A. to develop positively in 2006.<br />
Modzelewski & Rodek Sp. z o.o., our 50%-owned associated company based in Warsaw, maintained<br />
its encouraging business development in 2005. Measures taken to counteract capacity<br />
bottlenecks on the Polish labour market included the greater involvement of this company.<br />
Stal-Service Sp. z o.o., an 80%-owned associated company of Porr (Polska) S.A. that operates an<br />
iron forge in Warsaw, also enjoyed a satisfactory fiscal year. Although the steel market stabilised<br />
slightly during the <strong>report</strong>ing year, we fully expect prices to rise.<br />

Porr (Hrvatska) d.o.o., another associated company set up with PTU, developed well during<br />
the fiscal year, achieving a high capacity level thanks to a number of major orders in Zagreb.<br />
The in-house project “Zagreb Tower” is scheduled for completion in 2006.<br />
OUTLOOK<br />
The steady revenue-based growth of PPH is set to continue in 2006 on the basis of the solid<br />
domestic market of Austria, which accounts for around half of total construction output.<br />
Encouraging developments in Poland, the Czech Republic and Croatia make us doubly confident<br />
of breaking into new markets.<br />

COMPANY PROFILE<br />
With a majority shareholding of over 52%, <strong>PORR</strong> <strong>AG</strong> also holds the industrial <strong>management</strong> of<br />
TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong>, which specialises in road construction, canal building works, environmental<br />
protection activities and the full range of sealing works. The company’s success and high level of<br />
competitiveness are ensured by its widespread coverage of the Austrian market; its strong market<br />
position is further underpinned by a dense network of asphalt mixing plants and a secure supply<br />
of raw materials.<br />
In addition to large and complex projects in the infrastructure area, we also perform smaller,<br />
regional construction jobs for local authorities and private clients. Our main strengths within our<br />
business areas are reliability, adherence to schedules and innovative flair.<br />

SERVICE PORTFOLIO<br />
Road construction<br />
Accounting for over 50% of output, the road construction sector constituted our most important<br />
business area. Given the rising demand for fast and safe transport networks across Europe (and<br />
particularly in central and eastern Europe), this segment is a key driver of growth.<br />
With an order volume of around €35.2 million, the renovation of the Böheimkirchen-Kirchstetten<br />
stretch of the A1 Westautobahn (performed as a joint venture) was a significant project. The construction<br />
of the Gnas link road on the B68 at Gniebing, Styria, also deserves special mention.<br />
With a volume of around €140.8 million, the construction of a new 4.2-kilometre section of the<br />
D47 motorway from Hrusov to Bohumin, including two bridges spanning the River Oder, ranks as<br />
a flagship project for our Prague subsidiary PSVS a.s. (realised as a joint venture).<br />

Concrete construction and bridge building<br />
Once again, many characteristic construction projects were completed in this sector during 2005.<br />
In the concrete construction area, unit 3 of the Wörgl-Bruckhäusl by-pass project was particularly<br />
notable. Having completed units 1 and 2, we are pleased to <strong>report</strong> that TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong><br />
secured the final project unit as part of a joint venture. We were also contracted to build the<br />
Olympia Bridge, a 200-metre steel composite bridge at Innsbruck. The Milser Innbrücke project<br />
on the B174 in Tyrol was also realised.<br />
Sealing work<br />
Over recent years, the sealing sector has developed into a significant operational field in Austria<br />
and the neighbouring countries. In the year under review, we carried out a structural reorganisation<br />
aimed at reflecting the increasing importance of this area. With retroactive effect to<br />
1st January 2005, the companies BAUVEG-Baubetrieb GmbH, ISO-Bau Abdichtungstechnik<br />
GmbH and Polydicht Abdichtungstechnik GmbH were merged to form IAT GmbH.<br />
NEW FIELD DELIVERS<br />
DIVERSIFICATION<br />
We are one of Austria’s leading providers in the field of bituminous sealing and the sector of<br />
plastic insulation for tunnel, waste disposal site and storage reservoir construction. IAT GmbH<br />
carried out numerous technically complex sealing projects in tunnels during the year under<br />
review. The best example of our foreign activities was the sealing work for the Gotthard base<br />
tunnel in Switzerland.<br />
Road markings<br />
Road marking work was performed throughout Austria in fiscal year 2005 in connection with<br />
various large-scale motorway project units as well as major federal and regional routes. Thanks<br />
to our deployment of the latest technologies and the expertise of our staff members, we have<br />
become a specialist in this field and one of the leading providers in Austria.<br />

THE PURE FACE OF <strong>PORR</strong>.<br />
THE TOUGHER THE CHALLENGE,<br />
THE BETTER THE SOLUTION.<br />
A MULTI-FACETED COMPANY CAN FACE EVERY SITUATION: With four<br />
business divisions, there’s really nothing that we can’t build. As our<br />
impressive list of references proves, we know how to link our fields<br />
of expertise to resolve even the most complex of tasks to the fullest<br />
satisfaction of the customer – whether that means a sophisticated<br />
office building in the city or a wastewater treatment plant in the<br />
mountains.<br />
In 1979, we constructed a sewage treatment plant to service the<br />
15,700 inhabitants of Sölden. However, given that the number of<br />
people in this popular winter sports destination rises sharply during<br />
the season, TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> – without interrupting the operation<br />
of the plant – has expanded the plant’s capacity to cope with an<br />
average of 90,000 inhabitants. Now that figure can be ramped up to<br />
120,000 whenever extra capacity is needed. All components of the<br />
plant with an overall height of up to 9.6 metres have been embedded,<br />
making them virtually invisible. Although the lack of space and<br />
challenging physical location made for tough working conditions, the<br />
new plant was delivered right on schedule.

Outside of Austria, TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 2005 concentrated on the Czech Republic, Poland,<br />
Hungary, Switzerland and Croatia.<br />
With nine branch offices and a number of subsidiary companies, the company is represented<br />
throughout Austria, guaranteeing optimum customer support. We are pursuing the same strategy<br />
on all of our markets.<br />
TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> also runs PSVS a.s. (Prazské Silnicní a vodohospodárské stavby a.s.), a<br />
wholly-owned subsidiary since the end of 2005 and now the leading company in Greater Prague<br />
for road construction and civil engineering. Branch offices have been established in Bohemia and<br />
Moravia.<br />
The Warsaw-based subsidiary TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> POLSKA Sp. z o.o., founded in 2004, successfully<br />
acquired and completed a number of road construction projects.<br />
Our plastic insulation technology company GUNIMPERM-BAUVEG SA, which operates on the<br />
Swiss market, mainly handles localised special orders linked to tunnel sealing. Through our sealing<br />
group companies, we are also represented on a project-related basis in Germany, the Czech<br />
Republic and Croatia.<br />
We have positioned ourselves effectively in western Hungary with the subsidiary Teerag-Asdag<br />
Kft. in Mosonmagyaróvár and its branch office in Szombathely, which focuses on road construction<br />
and canal building projects. Moreover, the participation in the ASD<strong>AG</strong> Kavicsbanya gravel<br />

THE CLEVER FACE OF <strong>PORR</strong>.
WE FINANCE THE FAST ROADS TO<br />
THE FUTURE.<br />
INNOVATION MEANS FINDING NEW FACES TO EXISTING MARKETS:<br />
Over the coming years, major infrastructure projects will increasingly<br />
be financed by means of public-private partnerships and franchise<br />
models. This will ease the financial burden on public budgets. We<br />
have already built up a highly impressive stock of references for<br />
this high-potential new business model on the basis of small-scale<br />
projects at home and abroad.<br />
In the PPP project concerning the M6 motorway between Budapest<br />
and Dunaùjvaros, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group defeated strong international<br />
competition to be awarded the first section of 58.6 kilometres. The<br />
€500 million project will be completed in just 18 months under the<br />
terms of a joint venture; the consortium will be responsible for upkeep<br />
over the subsequent 20 years and six months. Refinancing from<br />
the Hungarian state will take the form of a fixed annual payment.<br />
A complex bonus-penalty system will ensure a high operational<br />
standard is maintained.

The development, planning, construction, financing, operation and marketing of real estate and<br />
infrastructure-related properties in Austria and abroad makes up the core business of <strong>PORR</strong><br />
SOLUTIONS.<br />
In the real estate area, the <strong>PORR</strong> SOLUTIONS portfolio centres on office and corporate properties,<br />
industrial and commercial real estate, public properties and the development of municipal<br />
districts.<br />
In the field of infrastructure, various public-private partnerships and services are provided and<br />
performed in connection with waste and wastewater disposal, the traffic sector (road and rail)<br />
and public health alongside in-house investments in the energy sector.<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> SOLUTIONS is therefore represented in many future-oriented sectors within the construction<br />
and service sphere. The company’s success is rooted in its expertise, performance capability<br />
and its well-established network. All services are provided from a single source; processes and<br />
interfaces are subject to continual enhancement, and synergies arising between <strong>PORR</strong> Group<br />
subsidiaries are utilised to the maximum advantage.<br />

OUTLOOK<br />
The project development area is regarded as having high potential, especially in the real estate<br />
and infrastructure sectors in eastern Europe. For this reason, we are expanding the company’s<br />
presence in the region.<br />
In future, <strong>PORR</strong> SOLUTIONS will be able to offer a greater range of services, particularly in the<br />
fields of planning and project <strong>management</strong> and total facility <strong>management</strong>. With a comprehensive<br />
service portfolio, it will be possible to offer customers a “lifecycle model” in the real estate and<br />
infrastructure areas: in order words, to provide maximum support throughout the lifecycle of a<br />
project, from the initial idea onwards. Services like financing concepts and franchise/operator<br />
models will also be extended.<br />
As an efficient partner within central Europe, <strong>PORR</strong> SOLUTIONS raises the project development<br />
profile of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group in an internationally competitive environment. The stated aim is a<br />
significant increase in market share and a major contribution to Group profits over the long term.<br />

<strong>PORR</strong> ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE<br />
UNEVEN DEVELOPMENT FOR<br />
CAPITAL MARKETS IN 2005<br />
DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL MARKETS<br />
Fortunes varied for the international share markets in 2005. Although most European indices<br />
developed positively on the back of encouraging company <strong>report</strong>s and the Japanese Nikkei index<br />
hit a five-year high, the Dow Jones index in America barely moved from the previous year’s level.<br />
In Vienna, the ATX leading index tracked the development of share indices in eastern Europe,<br />
comfortably outperforming the main international indices with a recent rise of 50.8% and closing<br />
the year 2005 on 3,667.03 points. In contrast to other international stock exchanges, the<br />
Austrian shares market sustained a record-breaking mood throughout the period, achieving new<br />
all-time highs on over 50 separate trading days. This development was assisted mainly by the<br />
business profits of companies listed in Vienna (which exceeded the international average) and<br />
the proximity to the rapidly expanding economies of central, eastern and southern Europe. The<br />
accession of ten countries to the European Union in 2004, four of which are neighbours of<br />
Austria, further focused the attention of international investors on the favourable economic and<br />
geographical conditions enjoyed by companies listed in Vienna.<br />
MARKET CAPITALISATION<br />
OF VIENNA STOCK EXCHANGE<br />
HITS RECORD HIGH<br />
As of the end of 2005, domestic market capitalisation (domestic shares, including jouissance<br />
and participation shares in official trading, OTC market and third market) on the Vienna Stock<br />
Exchange amounted to €107.1 billion, 65.8% above the comparable value of the previous year<br />
(€64.6 billion). The key figure for market capitalisation as a percentage of gross domestic<br />
product – used for international comparison purposes – thereby increased to over 40%. The<br />
Vienna Stock Exchange has thus achieved, faster than expected, a market position that bears<br />
comparison with other stock exchanges in western Europe.<br />
MARKET CAPITALISATION OF<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> SHARES UP BY 37.4%<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> SHARES<br />
In 2005, the development of <strong>PORR</strong> shares was characterised by a rapid rate increase early in<br />
the year. By year end, the stock market price of <strong>PORR</strong> ordinary shares had risen by 33.3%.<br />
With a rise of 48.0%, the widely dispersed preference shares mirrored the extremely positive<br />
development of the overall market. Owing to the very low liquidity of ordinary shares, these have<br />
been traded on the Standard Auction Market of the Vienna Stock Exchange since the start of<br />
the second quarter of 2006 rather than the Standard Continuous Market.<br />
The sharp rate rise in the company’s ordinary and preference shares produced a significant<br />
increase in market capitalisation from €173.6 million at the end of 2004 to €238.6 million<br />
at the end of 2005.<br />

CORPORATE BOND ISSUED<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> CORPORATE BOND<br />
In June 2005, <strong>PORR</strong> issued a corporate bond of €100 million in a further measure aimed at<br />
improving the capital and financing structure. The bond, with a denomination of €500 and a<br />
term of five years, has a bond coupon of 4.5%. Based on an issue price of 100.827%, the yield<br />
upon issue stood at 4.313%. <strong>PORR</strong> raised the net proceeds from the issue of the debentures<br />
mainly to bring stabilisation and structural improvement to the financing structure and thereby<br />
facilitate a rescheduling from short-term to long-term payables.<br />

MEETING THE AUSTRIAN COMPLIANCE GUIDELINES<br />
In order to prevent the misuse of insider information, the “issuer compliance regulations” of the<br />
financial market supervisory authority came into force on 1 st April 2002. These were revised<br />
owing to an amendment to the Stock Exchange Act in 2005.<br />
In line with the stipulations of the Stock Exchange Act and the issuer compliance regulations,<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> enacted a new set of compliance guidelines; these came into force in June 2005. These<br />
guidelines regulate the exchange of information within the company and define measures to<br />
monitor all internal and external flows of information with a view to preventing their misuse. The<br />
aim is to make employees, company organs, consultants and other persons active on behalf of<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> aware of the legal prohibition of the abuse of insider information.<br />
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> has not so far made any declaration of commitment to observe the Austrian Code of<br />
Corporate Governance. Nonetheless, <strong>PORR</strong> complies with all of the legal provisions and many<br />
of the “comply or explain” regulations.<br />

M6 MOTORWAY, HUNGARY<br />
Length of section: 58.6 km<br />
Total project volume: €500 million<br />
Implementation term: 18 months<br />
Under the terms of a public-private partnership, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group cooperated<br />

period of just 18 months. Refinancing for the project will take the form of<br />
a fixed annual payment from the Hungarian state. To ensure a higher-thanaverage<br />
operational standard, a complex bonus-penalty system has been<br />
agreed; the project company will also be responsible for maintaining and<br />

FURTHER EDUCATION AND TRAINING<br />
The continual further education and training of our staff is carried out in accordance<br />
with a clearly defined training concept. Every salaried employee of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group<br />
complies with an individual training plan, defined in a yearly training agreement<br />
between the employee and their superior. The training programme is organised by<br />
the Personnel department with the cooperation and agreement of the Quality Management<br />
department. The main focus of training for managerial staff, who also take part<br />
in the programme, is on general and sector-specific <strong>management</strong> issues; these range<br />
from company law and planning and building law to staff <strong>management</strong>.<br />

For many years, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group has been recognised for its commitment to the education and<br />
training of young people. Many apprentices gain their vocational grounding in the various skilled<br />
trades with us. In order to eliminate the training costs of commercial apprentices for the various<br />
construction centres, a national cost allocation regulation has been introduced for the companies<br />
in Austria: according to the respective year of an apprenticeship, training costs are progressively<br />
assigned to a collective cost centre at the higher-level corporate organisation. Those responsible<br />
hope that this cost-easing model will provide a further incentive to raise the number of apprentices.<br />

Following lengthy negotiations, a standard collective agreement between the <strong>management</strong> and<br />

2005. Differences that related mainly to historically-developed structures and the operational<br />
integration of TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> have now been ironed out. A uniform model now defines the<br />
rights and duties of staff as well as the structure of benefits such as seniority bonuses and<br />
long-service payments; the various regulations on pension provision have been standardised. The<br />
collective agreement also provided a basis for the implementation in 2005 of combined software<br />
for wage and salary payments, thereby minimising costs in this area.<br />

R&D FOCUS ON BUILDING CONSTRUCTION<br />
Research activities in the area of building construction revolve around the development of<br />
procedures and materials that enhance building insulation, equipment and appliances and<br />
consequently reduce the construction costs and running costs of buildings. <strong>PORR</strong> is thereby<br />
preparing the early ground for a development that – significantly for the medium term – will take<br />
account of European climate protection targets as well as rising energy prices. In the long term,<br />
we expect these issues to determine the attractiveness of construction projects to a greater degree.<br />

CONTINUAL ENHANCEMENT OF<br />
WASTE TREATMENT METHODS<br />
According to recent studies by the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber, the Austrian environmental<br />
technology sector has an R&D quota of around 5.6% (material goods production, by<br />
contrast, only has a quota of around 2%). The high priority assigned to research and development<br />
activity is shared by Porr Umwelttechnik GmbH, as numerous successfully applied environmental<br />
technology patents demonstrate. Innovative projects include the utilisation and treatment<br />
of waste by means of chemical/physical wet processing, the stabilisation of waste using latent<br />
hydraulic bonding agents and a device for the in-situ purification of contaminated groundwater<br />
streams using a filter reaction wall.<br />
Most research activity in this area takes place in connection with projects; this is the best way to<br />
respond to highly specific and often widely diverse challenges. At the same time, we monitor<br />
medium-term market trends so that we can define our priorities as appropriate in good time (in<br />
future, for example, waste will increasingly be used as a substitute raw material or as substitute<br />
fuel). The current trend in the waste <strong>management</strong> sector at national and European level is to<br />
conserve natural resources whilst increasing the degree of utilisation and recycling. Porr Umwelttechnik<br />
GmbH is responding to this development by improving waste treatment methods and<br />
utilisation strategies.<br />
In 2005, Porr Umwelttechnik GmbH introduced an environmental <strong>management</strong> system in<br />
compliance with EN ISO 14001. The company consistently pursues the objectives and measures<br />
that this defines, which are aimed at improving all environmentally-relevant processes on a<br />
sustainable basis.<br />
A system that utilises terrestrial heat (for heating and cooling) in combination with a co-generation<br />
plant will be installed for the first time as part of an office construction project in Vienna. Under<br />
the project, terrestrial heat exchange systems will be integrated in the diaphragm walls and base<br />
plates used in the construction of the underground car parks. In summer, these systems will<br />
channel thermal energy from the building’s cooling system into the ground and store it there. In<br />
winter, it will then be possible to draw this energy from the ground for heating purposes, thereby<br />
cutting energy costs substantially.<br />

GENERAL ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT<br />
THE GLOBAL ECONOMY IN 2005<br />
The global economy continued to expand strongly in 2005 despite sharp rises in raw material<br />
and crude oil prices. The development was driven by Asia, and in particular China, where the<br />
pace of growth showed no signs of abating. By contrast, production slowed down in other regions.<br />
One major factor shaping the overall economic picture in 2005 was the steep increase in the<br />
price of oil. In the wake of lost production linked to Hurricane Katrina, listings for Brent crude<br />
oil reached an all-time high of US$70 per barrel in early September. The effects of this on the<br />
economies of industrialised nations were less dramatic than in the past; low interest rates in particular<br />
provided an important counterbalance.<br />
PRICE OF CRUDE OIL<br />
HITS RECORD HIGH<br />
During 2005, the USA maintained the economic upturn of the previous year. In spite of devastating<br />
natural disasters, gross domestic product expanded by 3.5%, only marginally short of the<br />
previous year’s level. The economic situation was boosted by strong private consumption and an<br />
acceleration in government spending. Although monetary conditions deteriorated due to the gradual<br />
increase in key interest rates by the US Federal Reserve Bank, they remain relatively<br />
favourable. Apart from the interest rate effect, the dollar – revalued in real and effective terms<br />
despite the rising foreign trade deficit – also had an adverse effect.<br />
The economies of China and India expanded rapidly in 2005, influencing supply and demand<br />
throughout the global economy. This led to substantial increases in quotations on commodities<br />
exchanges for energy and industrial raw materials in particular. The economy in Japan continued<br />
to pick up, returning real-terms GDP growth of 1.7%; this was mainly due to higher domestic<br />
demand, the devaluation of the yen and a constant interest rate.<br />
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN EUROPE<br />
In the European Union, economic output was hampered by the increase in oil prices and the<br />
upward course of the euro and gained momentum only slowly in the first half of 2005. With<br />
activity picking up in the second half of 2005, GDP for the EU-25 expanded by 1.6% for the<br />
year as a whole. The main factor behind this development was the surge in non-domestic<br />
demand. Corporate investment activity also increased thanks to brighter revenue prospects and<br />
consistently favourable financing conditions. However, private consumption was once again a<br />
weak link in economic development during 2005. With unemployment remaining high (at 8.7%<br />
in the EU-25), the steep rise in energy prices restricted net disposable income. At the end of<br />
2005, the European Central Bank abandoned its hesitant interest rate policy and raised the<br />
interest rate level, thereby deflating inflation expectations.<br />

Despite difficult macro-economic conditions, economic growth in the countries of central and<br />
eastern Europe comfortably outperformed the eurozone once again. Foreign trade expanded<br />
rapidly in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Slovenia (GDP of 6.0%, 6.0%, 4.1% and<br />
3.9% respectively), while private consumption escalated in Poland (GDP 3.2%). Considerable<br />
progress was made in terms of the consumer price index (down from 7.5% to 2.8% in Slovakia,<br />
from 6.8% to 3.5% in Hungary and from 2.6% to 1.6% in the Czech Republic) and the unemployment<br />
rate (down from 8.3% to 7.9% in the Czech Republic, from 19.0% to 17.7% in<br />
Poland and from 18.2% to 16.4% in Slovakia). With growth forecasts improving as a result and<br />
interest and inflation rates levelling out, this had a stabilising effect on exchange rates.<br />

Economic development in Austria in 2005 was again<br />
influenced by the country’s location between the<br />
heavyweight economies of Germany and Italy (albeit<br />
contending with structural growth problems) and the<br />
economically prospering CEE countries. Following a<br />
period of poor performance in the first half of 2005,<br />
the industrial economy revived thanks to rising export<br />
demand; overall growth for the year amounted to 1.7%.<br />
Low levels of private consumption picked up slightly at<br />
the end of 2005 thanks to a steady inflation rate of<br />
2.1%. The unemployment rate, however, rose from<br />
4.8% to 5.2%. Compared to other countries in Europe,<br />
Austria ranked sixth in terms of unemployment behind<br />
Ireland (4.3%), Norway (4.6%), the Netherlands and<br />
Great Britain (both on 4.7%) and Denmark (4.9%), and<br />
well below the EU-25 average of 8.7%.<br />

DEVELOPMENT OF THE CONSTRUCTION MARKET<br />
The European construction industry is a patchwork of extremely diverse national circumstances.<br />
The major western European countries remain in a recessionary phase, but their substantial<br />
market volume enables them to dominate overall development of the sector in Europe. Although<br />
central and eastern European markets have achieved healthy growth rates, their influence on the<br />
general trend will be limited for as long as their market volume is small in absolute terms.<br />
WESTERN EUROPE: THE EU-15<br />
During 2005, production value for the construction industry of the EU-15 expanded by 1.8%,<br />
below the growth rate of the previous year. This reduction was the result of a diminishing readiness<br />
to invest on the part of the public sector and private investors. Investment in infrastructure<br />
expansion and the European transport network was too sluggish to compensate for low levels of<br />
residential construction. Given that the development of civil engineering is heavily influenced by<br />
the strategies and fiscal policy of the public sector, more and more private finance initiatives<br />
such as public-private partnerships and franchise models are being developed in order to overcome<br />
budget restrictions and develop infrastructure in particular.<br />
LITTLE APPETITE<br />
FOR INVESTMENT<br />
Real-terms construction investment in Germany – an important foreign market for the <strong>PORR</strong><br />
Group – declined by 1.0% compared to the previous year despite an economic upturn. Even<br />
positive prospects for production and turnover in industrial companies led to job creation and<br />
thus greater investment in development (including construction measures) only in isolated<br />
instances. With levels of new borrowing by regional and local authorities remaining substantial<br />
and national debt at extremely high levels, the scope for making decisions on building projects<br />
was greatly restricted. Moreover, the general picture in Germany is still affected by the varying<br />
pace of development on the eastern and western German markets.<br />
CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE<br />
Construction output continued to rise in 2005 for the new EU states of central and eastern<br />
Europe. The infrastructure sector in particular benefited from the EU Cohesion Fund, which<br />
aims to accelerate the process of economic recovery. Apart from the transport infrastructure,<br />
investment in environmental civil engineering projects such as the development of renewable<br />
sources of energy (hydroelectric, solar and wind power) has become more significant. In the<br />
water <strong>management</strong> sector in particular, the backlog and need for modernisation (as regards water<br />
and sewage pipelines) remains very high in some countries. This trend raised the profile of the<br />
region’s construction industry (and especially its civil engineering sectors) during 2005. By<br />
contrast, building construction was characterised by a temporary stagnation in residential<br />
construction. In the wake of some high (preliminary) growth rates for 2005 (16.9% in Hungary,<br />
9.4% in Poland, 7.8% in Slovakia and 4.8% in the Czech Republic), average increases of up to<br />
7% are anticipated for the years ahead.<br />

AUSTRIA<br />
During 2005, the construction industry in Austria benefited mainly from a 6.6% increase in<br />
demand for civil engineering which was driven by investment in the transport infrastructure area.<br />
Non-budgetary financing and a national promotion programme have widened the scope for<br />
accelerated expansion of the road and railway infrastructure. Orders on hand have been rising<br />
sharply since early 2005, with strong (preliminary) production growth achieved in the areas of<br />
tunnel construction (83.1%) and overground railway construction (19.1%). In overall terms,<br />
the positive trend in civil engineering more than made up for stagnating production output in<br />
building construction.<br />
The decline in production value seen over recent years in residential construction continued in<br />
2005. By contrast, demand for modernisation services and thermal redevelopment almost matched<br />
the volume of the previous year, with investment in energy-efficient residential construction<br />
boosted by favourable bank and building society conditions and targeted housing construction<br />
subsidies. The orders situation at the end of 2005 for companies in the field of industrial plant<br />
construction was an improvement on previous years, even if the starting level was relatively low.<br />
In the healthcare sector (hospital building, fitness and leisure sector), the level of private<br />
investment increased.<br />

DEVELOPMENT OF THE REAL ESTATE SECTOR IN EUROPE<br />
Investment and transaction activity on the European real estate market reached record levels in<br />
2005; never before had so much been invested. This extraordinary growth was achieved in spite<br />
of declining yield prospects in all sectors. The investment market is internationally oriented, with<br />
American, German and British investors dominating the scene. As investment opportunities<br />
diminish in the key regions, these investors are starting to increase their focus on smaller and<br />
medium-sized provincial cities and the expanding economies of eastern Europe. The office market<br />
emerged as the most active sector in 2005, accounting for nearly half of all investment.<br />
Commercial real estate was responsible for a quarter of investment, with over half of this made<br />
in shopping centres. As the year progressed, the industrial construction sector attracted ever<br />
greater interest. Rates of growth were marginal in the other categories (especially multifunctional<br />
centres).<br />
INVESTMENT VOLUME<br />
HITS RECORD LEVEL<br />
The top 10 real estate markets accounted for around 55% of total volume: London, Paris and<br />
Stockholm represented more than one third (37.7%). Four German cities (Frankfurt, Berlin,<br />
Hamburg and Munich) also featured in the top 10 for 2005 despite the sluggish economic<br />
environment.<br />
Development by sector varied greatly across the EU-15. In the United Kingdom, France, Sweden<br />
and Ireland in particular, extremely high growth rates were achieved in the office construction,<br />
multifunctional centres and residential construction sectors. Owing to a below-average price<br />
level, Germany constituted the fourth largest investment market of the EU15 in 2005, an<br />
improvement on previous years.<br />

REAL ESTATE MARKET IN AUSTRIA<br />
With a stable macro-economic environment and quantifiable framework conditions, the demand<br />
for lucrative investment properties in Austria remained high throughout 2005. Although investors<br />
from Germany had accounted for more than 50% of total investment in previous years, it was<br />
Austrian investors who dominated the <strong>report</strong>ing period. Vienna provided the focus on account of<br />
its bridging function between eastern and western Europe and its international reputation. On the<br />
back of the successful relocation of many international companies, the demand for modern office<br />
space has been increasing for many years: in 2005, floor space totalling around 340,000m 2 was<br />
rented. The price level for top properties is constant at €22 per square metre/month and remains<br />
attractive by international comparison (London €112, Paris €53, Dublin and Moscow €44). The<br />
vacancy rate, which rose sharply from 2.5% in 2000 to 6.5% in 2004, declined marginally to<br />
6.1% during the <strong>report</strong>ing period; this corresponds to vacant space of around 600,000m 2 . A<br />
significant proportion of the investment volume relates to residential space and mixed-use<br />
properties. The demand for high-quality logistical real estate, which can be rented for an average<br />
of €4.50 per square metre of storage space, also increased.<br />
DEVELOPMENT OF OUTPUT<br />
CONSOLIDATION OF WIBEBA<br />
DEFINITION OF PRODUCTION OUTPUT<br />
Within the <strong>PORR</strong> Group, production output is determined from the annual construction output of<br />
all operational Group companies according to certain economic criteria. As opposed to the gross<br />
revenues <strong>report</strong>ed in the Group profit and loss account, the output of joint ventures involving<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> <strong>AG</strong> or one of its subsidiaries is included proportionately in the calculation of production<br />
output.<br />
Only the TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> Group, in which <strong>PORR</strong> has a stake of 52.49% and thus holds industrial<br />
<strong>management</strong> control, deviates from this rule in that 100% of its output is included. The<br />
main addition to the consolidated entity was the 100% acquisition of the WIBEBA Group early in<br />
2005. The comments below as well as the consolidated financial statements for 2005 take<br />
account of all financial figures of WIBEBA.<br />

DEVELOPMENT OF PRODUCTION OUTPUT<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group succeeded in increasing its output volume considerably in 2005.<br />
Production output of €2,258.0 million exceeded the previous year’s value by around<br />
21.8% or €403.9 million. Part of this increase in output (€122.8 million) was due<br />
to domestic organic growth of €1,444.2 million; however, it was mainly due to a<br />
32.3% (€171.8 million) expansion in foreign activities to €704.5 million. Around<br />
one quarter of the rise in production output (€109.3 million) resulted from the<br />
acquisition of WIBEBA.<br />
For detailed information on the breakdown of production output within the <strong>PORR</strong><br />
Group and explanatory notes on the individual segments, please refer to the diagram<br />
opposite, the segment <strong>report</strong>s and the notes to the consolidated financial statements.<br />
DEVELOPMENT OF FOREIGN MARKETS<br />
During 2005, the dynamic development of foreign markets contributed significantly<br />
to the increase in overall production output for the <strong>PORR</strong> Group. Production output<br />
rose by 32.3% on the previous year’s value to €704.5 million, with the foreign share<br />
of total production output up from 28.7% in 2004 year to around 31.2% in 2005.<br />
The corporate strategy of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group is to establish the broadest possible<br />
geographical presence, especially in central and eastern Europe. In this way, we can<br />
compensate for developments on the sluggish market of Germany, formerly our<br />
strongest foreign market. There is a huge backlog in the infrastructure, energy and<br />
building construction sectors, particularly in the new EU member states but also in<br />
the other constituent states of the former Yugoslavia. Thanks to its early market entry,<br />
the <strong>PORR</strong> Group is poised to maximise this potential.<br />
In Hungary, output volume increased almost eightfold in 2005 to stand at €172.1<br />
million; this market accounted for 7.6% of total production output. The second most<br />
productive foreign market was the Czech Republic with 7.3% (€165.1 million) of<br />
consolidated production output. In Germany, where output volume decreased deliberately<br />
by about one third compared to the previous year owing to the general economic<br />
situation, the proportion stood at 6.7% (€151.5 million). The doubling of production<br />
output in Poland to €103.2 million (4.6% of consolidated production output) helped<br />
to overcome the slump of the previous year. Switzerland accounted for 1.9%<br />
(€42.2 million), marginally short of the previous year’s level. By contrast, Croatia<br />
(1.2%/€27.5 million) and Bosnia and Herzegovina (1.1%/€25.5 million) delivered<br />
their first significant output contributions. While Slovakia (0.6% or €13.0 million)<br />
already ranks as one of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group’s established foreign markets, carefully<br />
selected launch projects were carried out in Slovenia, Romania and Serbia and<br />
Montenegro. These initial experiences will help us to maximise existing market<br />
potential in the future.<br />

DEVELOPMENT OF PRODUCTION OUTPUT BY SECTOR<br />
Although investment accelerated during 2005 in the infrastructure sector (road and<br />
rail construction), the <strong>PORR</strong> Group achieved its strongest growth rates in the building<br />
construction sectors. With production output of approximately €856 million (up<br />
€194.2 million), the proportion of building construction in relation to total production<br />
output increased by 2.2 percentage point to 37.9%. Counter to the general market<br />
trend, significant growth rates were achieved both at home and abroad in residential<br />
construction (up 39.0%) and industrial plant construction (up 121.2%). Driven by the<br />
office and commercial buildings sector, other building construction expanded by a<br />
considerable 36.9% in Austria, more than compensating for the downturn abroad. The<br />
proportion of refurbishment work in building construction increased by 9.8% domestically,<br />
in contrast to a downward trend abroad, albeit on a very low level (-63.9%).<br />

The volume of the civil engineering sectors remained virtually unchanged from 2004 at<br />

utility mains and cable network construction), although regional differences were evident.<br />
The construction of a section of the M6 motorway in Hungary and the increase in<br />
output at PSVS (a wholly-owned subsidiary of TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong> in the Czech Republic)<br />
provided the basis for considerable output growth abroad in road construction (up<br />
223.4%) and bridge/elevated road construction (up 80.7%). In contrast, output in<br />
bridge/elevated road construction in Austria expanded by just 13.5%; in road construction,<br />
output volume fell marginally short of the previous year’s level (-1.1%). The<br />

picture was reversed for tunnel construction: the “Wienerwald tunnel” and “Arlberg tunnel”<br />
projects ensured an increase of 148.8% compared to 2004 in Austria, but a 33.5% decline was<br />
sustained abroad.<br />
Preparatory work on construction sites was broadly stable with a proportion of 2.1% (equivalent<br />
to €48.2 million). In contrast, the volume of output recorded as “other activities” – waste<br />

ORDER BALANCE<br />
At the end of 2005, the order balance for the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group stood at €1,465.3 million,<br />
2.5% short of the excellent figure of the<br />
previous year. Although domestic orders on<br />
hand increased by around 2.7% at year<br />
end to €923.9 million, the balance abroad<br />
fell by approximately 10.3% to €541.4<br />
million. The main reasons behind this<br />
development were greater service provision<br />
in Hungary linked to the M6 motorway<br />
project, the situation in Germany and<br />
follow-up projects that had not materialised<br />
at that point. By the end of 2005, a number<br />

EARNINGS SITUATION<br />
For the year 2005, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group <strong>report</strong>s gross revenues of €1,828.2 million in the<br />
profit and loss account, which includes invoiced construction work on own construction<br />
sites, goods and services to joint ventures, profit transfers from joint ventures and<br />
other ancillary revenue. We therefore succeeded in raising gross revenues by 19.2%<br />
or €295.1 million compared to the previous year’s level of €1,533.1 million. The<br />
disparity in production output from the gross revenues stated in the profit and loss<br />
account results from changes in the consolidated entity as well as the differing<br />
treatment of joint ventures (the <strong>report</strong>ing of sales only shows output actually invoiced<br />
and profit transfers).<br />
The rise in expenditure is mainly due to an above-average increase in expenditure for<br />
materials (30.7% up on the previous year). This development resulted from the<br />
increased use of subcontractors, mainly abroad.<br />

By contrast, personnel expenditure was below par with a rise of 12.1% compared to the<br />

basically comprises office running costs, accommodation and travel expenses, taxes and duties,<br />
legal, audit and consultancy costs, transfers to provisions, advertising expenditure, other third<br />
party services, general administrative costs and loss transfers from joint ventures.<br />
The EBIT for 2005 amounted to €49.3 million, an increase of 12.3% (€5.4 million) on 2004.<br />
This produced an EBIT margin of 2.7%, compared to 2.9% in 2004. Earnings from shareholdings<br />
rose by €3.0 million to €13.5 million, which includes revenue from the divestment of financial<br />
assets. Net interest income for the year under review moved little from the level of the previous<br />
year and stands at 1.7% of gross revenues. The measures introduced in 2005 aimed at improving<br />
the financial structure have improved the liquidity of<br />

FINANCIAL POSITION<br />
INITIAL CONSOLIDATION OF THE WIBEBA GROUP<br />
On 1 st January 2005, the WIBEBA Group was fully integrated into the annual statements of the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group for the first time. The effect on earnings of the initial consolidation amounted to<br />
€2.6 million and is shown under other operating income. The change in the consolidated entity<br />
resulted in a €76.8 million increase in the balance sheet total. The cash flow statement details<br />
the effects of the initial consolidation of the WIBEBA Group on the investment area.<br />
INITIAL CONSOLIDATION<br />
OF WIBEBA<br />
CHANGE IN THE BALANCE SHEET PRESENTATION<br />
Since fiscal year 2002, Allgemeine Baugesellschaft - A. Porr <strong>AG</strong> has applied the provisions of<br />
§ 245a of the Commercial Code and prepares the consolidated financial statements according to<br />
the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Accordingly, the consolidated balance<br />
sheet as of 31 st December 2005 is for the first time divided into long-term and short-term assets.<br />
LONG-TERM ASSETS<br />
As of 31 st December 2005, the long-term assets of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group had fallen by just €1.8 million<br />
to €720.3 million. The main reason for the decline was a cut in investment activity compared to<br />
the previous year, despite the initial consolidation of WIBEBA. Reductions in tangible fixed assets<br />
(from €347.9 million to €335.7 million) and in financial real estate (from €159.9 million<br />
to €148.3 million) were balanced out by an increase in shares in associated companies (from<br />
€59.3 million to €64.4 million) and a rise in accounts receivable (from €11.8 million to €21.3<br />
million). Of the total investments made in 2005 (€66.7 million), €42.9 million was allocated to<br />
fixed assets and €21.1 million to financial assets. The main proportion constituted replacement<br />
or new investment in the areas of technical equipment and machinery and business and office<br />
equipment items.<br />
LITTLE CHANGE<br />
IN LONG-TERM ASSETS<br />
SHORT-TERM ASSETS<br />
Compared to 2004, the short-term assets of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group increased by €79.6 million to<br />
€807.3 million. Although inventories decreased slightly compared to the previous year, rising<br />
output produced an increase in accounts receivable and other assets in 2005. On the key date,<br />
the <strong>PORR</strong> Group had accounts receivable and other assets of €648.5 million, up by €48.1 million.<br />
The improvement in liquidity is apparent in the figure for liquid assets (€101.6 million at the<br />
end of 2005, €32.8 million above the previous year’s figure).<br />
IMPROVEMENTS<br />
TO LIQUIDITY<br />
Compared to 2004, the balance sheet total of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group increased by €77.8 million to<br />
€1,527.6 million; this was mainly due to the initial consolidation of WIBEBA.<br />

FINANCING STRUCTURE<br />
By the end of 2005, the equity capital excluding profits due to minorities had increased compared<br />

€25.2 million, dividend payments of around €3.5 million and the transfer of revenue from the<br />
sale of own shares (€2.0 million) to retained earnings. The equity ratio thereby increased from<br />
11.7% in the previous year to 12.7% despite a rise in the balance sheet total of around 5.4%.<br />
Taking account of profits due to minority shareholders, the equity capital increased to €251.0<br />

The bond issues of the <strong>report</strong>ing year totalling €172.0 million together with the change in the<br />
provisions for pensions and similar obligations by reducing the actuarial calculation interest rate<br />
from 5.5% to 4.7% led to an increase in long-term borrowed capital from €278.4 million to<br />
€479.5 million. These capital market transactions were used exclusively to convert short-term<br />
payables to banks into long-term liabilities. The €229.5 million reduction in short-term bank<br />
liabilities to €187.4 million was counterbalanced by a €65.6 million output-related increase in<br />
other liabilities (trade creditors) to €482.0 million, whereby short-term borrowed capital was<br />
reduced in total by €152.5 million to €797.1 million.<br />
On the basis of significantly improved consolidated profits of €25.2 million (up €4.7 million<br />
or 22.9% compared to 2004), cash earnings according to ÖVFA (the Austrian Association for<br />
Financial Analysis and Investment Advisory Services) amounted to €77.0 million. An increase<br />
of €24.6 million or 46.9% heralded a return to 2003 levels following a temporary downturn in<br />
2004. Supported by a slight increase in accounts receivable, cash flow from operating activities<br />
increased by €24.7 million in 2005 to €64.2 million. Cash flow from investing activities<br />
increased by €51.2 million, from minus €40.6 million in 2004 to €10.6. This change was<br />
mainly due to higher revenues from disposals of financial assets, lower investments in tangible<br />
fixed assets and the effects of the acquisition of WIBEBA.<br />
Massive repayment of bank liabilities – at €211.2 million, much higher than the volume of the<br />
bonds of €172.0 million – led to a change in the cash flow from financing activity to minus<br />
€41.9 million, compared to minus €9.3 million at the same time last year.<br />

MINIMISES RISK<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group operates in a very wide range of sectors and countries. This broad geographical<br />

IMPLEMENTATION OF A VALUE-BASED RISK SYSTEM<br />
In order to establish a comprehensive risk <strong>management</strong> system that is independent of year-end<br />
data (and therefore operates closer to real time), a new value-based system was installed across<br />
the company in 2005. The tool, tailored to the actual situation of the company, takes account of<br />
cost accounting and budgeting aspects as well as results-oriented and asset-based data from<br />
financial accounting.<br />
The central element of the risk <strong>management</strong> system is an early warning system based on key<br />
data. With clearly defined risk classes, the various companies can be fully allocated to specific<br />
risk categories; the relevant corporate areas are then responsible for a detailed analysis of the<br />
companies. The findings are summarised into a risk <strong>report</strong> which forms part of a “<strong>management</strong><br />
letter” to the Executive Board. Timely countermeasures which are monitored for effectiveness<br />
complete the process.<br />

controlling tasks and activities that apply to the construction sites and business areas are<br />
defined in a set of generally applicable guidelines; performance of these is tracked within the<br />
framework of formalised advisory council <strong>report</strong>s and coordination meetings. These planning,<br />

FORECAST REPORT<br />
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT<br />
The economic revival in Europe is expected to continue in 2006, with an upturn in exports providing<br />
the momentum. The positive earnings situation of the companies, brighter sales prospects<br />
and the relatively low (although climbing) interest rate level are likely to exert a positive influence<br />
on the investment climate. Industrial production in the eurozone should start to pick up from the<br />
beginning of 2006. However, private consumption demand will also need to increase to sustain a<br />
self-supporting economic upswing over the long term. Developments on raw materials markets<br />
will continue to represent a significant risk to economic expansion.<br />
BUILDING CONSTRUCTION<br />
TO REMAIN WEAK; CIVIL<br />
ENGINEERING TO BENEFIT FROM<br />
INFRASTRUCTURE SECTOR<br />
THE CONSTRUCTION MARKET<br />
Compared to the economy as a whole, construction investment in Europe will probably struggle to<br />
gain momentum. The increase in building construction is likely to fall short of GDP growth once<br />
again, largely as a result of inadequate investment in new residential construction. By contrast,<br />
strong growth rates are expected in civil engineering thanks to greater investment in infrastructure<br />
expansion and the trans-European transport network.<br />
The rapid construction sector growth in the new EU member states is likely to be maintained,<br />
with the expansion of the traffic network and environmental projects afforded a high priority.<br />
EU subsidies will spur investment, with double-digit growth rates forecast for the infrastructure<br />
sector in particular.<br />
In Austria, a number of indicators point to a continuation of the recovery that began in mid-2005.<br />
Although the price level remains low, the orders and business situation has improved. Investments<br />
in the infrastructure sector (for example, in technical aspects of the transport networks of neighbouring<br />
regions to the east) coupled with rising demand for industrial, commercial and residential<br />
construction should enable construction investment to grow by more than 2% per annum for the<br />
foreseeable future, above the average level for western Europe. In line with the general trend<br />
across Europe, civil engineering will provide the growth engine for the Austrian construction<br />
industry over the medium term. Financing models that do not directly impact on public budgets<br />
have created new opportunities for boosting the expansion of the road and railway infrastructure;<br />
a 3% rise in real-terms civil engineering output is expected in 2006.<br />
PRODUCTION OUTPUT UP 6%<br />
OUTPUT DEVELOPMENT IN FIRST QUARTER 2006<br />
In spite of some very difficult weather conditions during the first quarter of 2006, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group<br />
succeeded in raising production output to €312.0 million (around 6% up on the same period of<br />
the previous year). The building construction sectors raised their output by around 35% to<br />
€159.7 million and accounted for around 51% of total production output. The main contributing<br />
sectors to this dramatic expansion in Austria were residential construction (up 59%) and other<br />
building construction (industrial and commercial plant, up 58%). Significant volumes have been<br />
worked off abroad, especially in the Czech Republic (office and commercial buildings, with an<br />
increase rate of 111%) and in Poland (office and commercial buildings, with a rise of 36%).<br />
Domestic growth of 19% in the first quarter of 2006 contrasted with a decline of 12% abroad;<br />
for the year as a whole, however, foreign activity is expected to increase.<br />

OUTPUT FORECAST AND EARNINGS SITUATION IN 2006<br />
During 2006, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group will aim to repeat, and hopefully improve on, the production<br />
output achieved in 2005 (approximately €2,250 million). In accordance with the strategy of the<br />
<strong>PORR</strong> Group, foreign activities will grow by around €80 million to stand at roughly €783 million<br />
(a share of 35%). Given the current healthy orders situation, building construction is likely to<br />
expand moderately; civil engineering and road construction will stabilise at around the previous<br />
year’s levels.<br />
AIMING FOR ANOTHER<br />
EARNINGS INCREASE<br />
Although the price level will remain unsatisfactory, the positive orders situation and brightening<br />
economic prospects will facilitate a further slight improvement in the earnings situation.<br />
CURRENT ORDERS SITUATION<br />
As of 31 st March 2006, the order balance for the <strong>PORR</strong> Group stood at €1,928.7 million, a<br />
figure exceeding the comparable value of the previous year by 10.2%. Increases were achieved<br />
in all sub-areas: in Austria, for example, orders secured in the first quarter related to the northeast<br />
apron extension at Schwechat airport, the construction of an office/commercial building with<br />
underground parking in Vienna (Simmering), a corporate building for the Pfaffenau incinerating<br />
plant in Vienna (Simmering), the feeder line for the Brenner rail axis (northern section, Kundl/<br />
Radfeld – Baumkirchen) and the Terminal Tower high-rise office block with underground parking<br />
at the main Linz railway station. Following works on the M6 motorway in Hungary, the <strong>PORR</strong><br />
Group has won a follow-up contract to build the east section of the M0 motorway. In Poland, an<br />
order concerning the extension of the Stary Browar II shopping centre in Poznan has been<br />
obtained.<br />
BRANCH OFFICES OF <strong>PORR</strong> <strong>AG</strong><br />
As of the balance sheet date, <strong>PORR</strong> <strong>AG</strong> managed branch offices in Vienna, Lower Austria,<br />
Burgenland, Upper Austria, Styria, Salzburg, Carinthia, Tyrol and Vorarlberg (with the company<br />
form “Branch Office”) as well as Maribor in Slovenia.<br />
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE<br />
The issue of a further bond is planned for the second quarter of 2006 with a view to maintaining<br />
successful liquidity improvements and financing expansion measures.<br />

CIVIL ENGINEERING / PTU GROUP SEGMENT<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group concentrates all of its civil engineering activities as regards engineering construction,<br />
environmental technology and resource <strong>management</strong> as well as its expertise in operator<br />
and franchise models within the Civil Engineering/PTU Group (Porr Technobau und Umwelt)<br />
segment.<br />
The service portfolio for this segment includes engineering construction (underground railway<br />
construction, motorway/expressway construction, bridge construction, energy engineering and<br />
power plant construction), railway construction (railway bridges, subways and railways stations as<br />
well as substructure works and track construction work), specialist civil engineering (including<br />
bored piles, diaphragm walls, insulation walls, drilling and injection engineering and pile driving<br />
technology), tunnel construction, environmental technology and resource <strong>management</strong> (operation<br />
of quarries and gravel pits in Austria and Germany as well as concrete manufacturing plants in<br />
Austria, Hungary and Croatia).<br />
A detailed breakdown of the segment can be found in the notes to the consolidated accounts.<br />
DEVELOPMENT DURING THE FISCAL YEAR<br />
During 2005, the Civil Engineering/PTU Group segment achieved a 30% rise in production<br />
output to €880.9 million. Porr GmbH, which performed extremely well in its first year of business,<br />
was responsible for a significant share of this output expansion in Austria. On the Hungarian<br />
market, Porr Budapest Kft. positioned itself successfully, delivering comprehensive services in<br />
road, bridge and sound barrier construction in connection with the M6 project. Business activities<br />
in the countries of eastern and southeastern Europe were expanded steadily in 2005. In Bosnia<br />

ORDER BALANCE AND OUTLOOK<br />
By the end of 2005, the order balance for the Civil Engineering/PTU Group segment<br />
was down by 8.6% to €663.8 million. This reduction can be explained by the inclusion<br />
of the M6 project in Hungary, which was assigned to the previous year’s order balance<br />
shortly before the year end. The upward order trend in the first quarter of 2006,<br />
the further deliberate expansion of geographical presence and the optimistic industry<br />
expectations suggest that the satisfactory development of output and earnings will<br />
continue over the years ahead.<br />

BUILDING CONSTRUCTION / PPH GROUP SEGMENT<br />
In the Building Construction/PPH Group segment, the <strong>PORR</strong> Group has drawn together its building<br />
construction expertise in the fields of high-rise building construction, hotel/residential<br />
construction, office construction and industrial construction along with adaptation, revitalisation<br />
and renovation measures; the segment also includes project planning and project development.<br />
A detailed breakdown of this segment can be found in the notes to the consolidated accounts.<br />
DEVELOPMENT DURING THE FISCAL YEAR<br />
During 2005, the activities of the Building Construction/PPH Group (Porr Projekt- und Hochbau)<br />
segment continued to centre on the consolidation of market presence in Austria, Germany,<br />
Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia and Romania as well as the operational<br />
development of the constituent states of the former Yugoslavia and an assessment of the Ukrainian<br />
market. This orientation, along with the allocation of the building construction capacity of<br />
WIBEBA, which was acquired early in 2005, led to a 26.8% rise in production output for the<br />
segment to €589.7 million. Since the WIBEBA building construction group only operates on<br />
the domestic market, the foreign share for this segment fell from 48.8% in the previous year to<br />
41.6% (€245.5 million) despite a satisfactory increase in foreign output.<br />
Increases in material costs – often substantial – were counterbalanced by personnel expenses<br />
that rose at a below-average rate. This resulted in an EBIT of €9.6 million, 37.1% up on 2004.<br />
Changes to assets and liabilities items allocated to this segment were reasonably balanced, with<br />
the assets allocated to this segment increasing by 40.3% to €664.4 million and segment<br />
liabilities rising by 48.4% to €609.0 million. Investments in this segment totalled €6.5 million.<br />
The allocation of WIBEBA building construction personnel and increased foreign activity have<br />
contributed to an overall 33.6% increase in the average staffing level to 1,867 employees.<br />

ROAD CONSTRUCTION / T-A GROUP SEGMENT<br />
The core skills of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group in road construction, canal building and environmental protection<br />
technology together with all sealing services are pooled within the Road Construction/T-A<br />
Group (TEER<strong>AG</strong>-ASD<strong>AG</strong>) segment. A market presence throughout Austria is backed up by a<br />
tight network of asphalt mixing facilities and a reliable supply of raw materials. Following the<br />
successful activities of PSVS a.s. in the Czech Republic, the Group’s foreign presence will be<br />
carefully developed through market entries in Poland, Hungary, Switzerland and Croatia.<br />
The road construction sector accounts for over half of the service portfolio of this segment. Given<br />
the growing demand for fast and secure traffic connections throughout Europe, the growth<br />
dynamic of this area is secure. The second pillar of the segment is environmental protection,<br />
which involves the construction of supply and waste disposal pipelines, sewage treatment plants<br />
and sound barriers. In both Austria and its neighbouring countries, the sealing services sector<br />
has become a mainstay of operational activity. The company IAT GmbH, which is part of the<br />
corporate group, is one of Austria’s leading providers in the field of plastic insulation for tunnel,<br />
waste disposal site and storage reservoir construction.<br />
A detailed breakdown of the segment can be found in the notes to the consolidated accounts.<br />
DEVELOPMENT DURING THE FISCAL YEAR<br />
In 2005, the Road Construction/T-A Group segment succeeded in raising the production output<br />
of the previous year by 10.7% to €787.3 million, mainly as a result of the positive development<br />
of foreign activities. With a 60.9% rise in output to €119.2 million, the foreign share for this<br />
segment stood at 15.1% in 2005 (compared to 10.4% in the previous year). Since material<br />
and personnel costs rose only moderately in 2005, the Group succeeded in raising the EBIT by<br />
129.1% to €25.2 million.<br />

increased market activity abroad, the average staffing level rose by 5% to 4,812<br />

The Road Construction/T-A Group segment had an order balance of €349.5 million at<br />
the end of 2005, just 3.5% below the outstanding value of the previous year. The<br />
strategic aim of the segment is to maintain its high market share in Austria, expand its<br />
presence in Hungary and Poland and, in particular, gain a foothold on the markets of<br />
Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia and Montenegro. However,<br />
bringing about further improvements to the healthy earnings situation will remain the<br />
highest priority.<br />

ALLGEMEINE BAUGESELLSCHAFT –<br />
A. <strong>PORR</strong> AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT<br />
GENERAL EXPLANATORY NOTES<br />
The consolidated accounts of Allgemeine Baugesellschaft – A. Porr Aktiengesellschaft (<strong>PORR</strong><br />
Group) have been prepared pursuant to § 245a of the Commercial Code in accordance with the<br />
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting<br />
Standards Board (IASB) and accepted by the European Union and in accordance with the interpretations<br />
issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC).<br />
Allgemeine Baugesellschaft – A. Porr Aktiengesellschaft (<strong>PORR</strong> Group) has previously conformed<br />
with the provisions of § 245a of the Commercial Code (old version); since fiscal year 2002, it<br />
has prepared its consolidated accounts solely on the basis of the International Financial Reporting<br />
Standards (IFRS).<br />
1. CONSOLIDATED ENTITY<br />
In addition to <strong>PORR</strong> <strong>AG</strong>, 77 (previous year: 68) domestic companies and 38 (previous year: 42)<br />
foreign companies are included in the consolidated accounts. During the year under review,<br />
14 (previous year: 6) domestic companies and one (previous year: 3) foreign company were consolidated<br />
for the first time. Additionally, 28 (previous year: 31) domestic and 5 (previous year: 7)<br />
foreign associated companies were valued under the equity method. During the year under<br />
review, 7 companies were amalgamated with Group companies and 3 were deconsolidated. The<br />
effects of the most significant initial consolidations in 2005 are dealt with separately in point 2.<br />
The list of shareholdings shows the affiliated and associated companies that are included.<br />
Companies are not included where the subsidiary is of minor relevance to the consolidated<br />
accounts; a total of 88 (previous year: 81) companies were not included in the consolidation.<br />
2. INITIAL CONSOLIDATION OF THE WIBEBA GROUP<br />
The WIBEBA Group was fully integrated in the consolidated accounts for the first time on<br />
1 st January 2005. This group comprises the following companies:<br />

The passive debit difference due to the initial consolidation amounts to TEUR 2,553.0. This<br />
amount was immediately regarded as profit and is shown as other operating income. The change<br />
in the consolidated entity (without taking consolidation postings into account) produces a change<br />
in the balance sheet total of TEUR 76,753.0. The WIBEBA Group is predominantly reflected in<br />
the road construction segment. The cash flow statement of the <strong>PORR</strong> Group for 2005 records<br />
the effects of the initial consolidation of the WIBEBA Group as cash flow from investing activities.<br />
3. CONSOLIDATION PRINCIPLES<br />
The capital consolidation of subsidiaries included in the consolidated accounts is performed<br />
with the purchase method, under which acquisition costs are offset against the pro rata equity<br />
capital of the subsidiaries at the time of the purchase. Goodwill arising on initial consolidation<br />
is capitalised and subjected to an annual test for impairment.<br />
Untaxed reserves are allocated to the retained earnings in the consolidated balance sheet after<br />
deducting any deferred tax. Valuation takes place at equity in the case of significant shareholdings<br />
using the revaluation method. At-equity companies were valued on the date of initial inclusion<br />
in the consolidated accounts. The share of annual profit for the companies consolidated by this<br />
method is declared in the Group profit and loss account as earnings from shareholdings.<br />
All accounts receivable and payable between companies included in consolidation are eliminated<br />
during debt consolidation. Currency differences are posted to income as other operating expenses<br />
or income.<br />
101
COMMENT ORGANS STRATEGY BUSINESS AREAS STOCK EXCHANGE EMPLOYEES R&D MAN<strong>AG</strong>EMENT REPORT SEGMENTS CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS INVESTMENTS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT <strong>AG</strong> ACCOUNTS GLOSSARY<br />
Group-internal income and expenditure is offset within the framework of consolidation of<br />
income and expenditure. Intercompany profit and loss from Group-internal deliveries is eliminated<br />
(affecting income) in accordance with the principle of materiality.<br />
Deferred taxes from consolidation procedures affecting income are amortised.<br />
4. FORMAL PRESENTATION<br />
To improve the clarity of presentation, individual items have been combined within the balance<br />
sheet and profit and loss account; these are itemised and explained in the notes to the accounts.<br />
The profit and loss account is prepared with type-of-expenditure format.<br />
5. CURRENCY TRANSLATION<br />
Subsidiaries’ balance sheets and profit and loss accounts prepared in foreign currencies are<br />
translated according to the modified current rate method. Balance sheet items of companies<br />
included in the consolidated accounts are translated at the mean rate of exchange on the balance<br />
sheet date; profit and loss accounts are generally translated at the annual mean rate of exchange<br />
for the fiscal year (as an arithmetic mean of all end-of-month quotations). Depreciation and<br />
annual net profit/loss are also translated at mean rates of exchange on the balance sheet date.<br />
Differences in translation on key dates arising from balance sheets are offset against retained<br />
earnings; those arising from profit and loss accounts are stated under other operating income.<br />
Movements on the fixed asset movement schedule as well as depreciation are translated at the<br />
mean rates of exchange on the balance sheet date.<br />
6. ACCOUNTING AND VALUATION METHODS<br />
The annual financial statements of all domestic companies included in the consolidated<br />
accounts are prepared according to standard accounting and valuation methods. The accounts of<br />
foreign Group companies are adjusted accordingly; minor deviating valuations or disclosures are<br />
retained.<br />
Intangible fixed assets are capitalised at acquisition cost and written down on a straight-line<br />
basis over the probable useful life.<br />
Rates of depreciation:<br />
Building rights 1.7% to 5.9%<br />
Rental rights 2.0% to 50.0%<br />
Licences 1.0% to 50.0%<br />
Concessions 5.0% to 50.0%<br />
102
COMMENT ORGANS STRATEGY BUSINESS AREAS STOCK EXCHANGE EMPLOYEES R&D MAN<strong>AG</strong>EMENT REPORT SEGMENTS CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS INVESTMENTS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT <strong>AG</strong> ACCOUNTS GLOSSARY<br />
Tangible assets are valued at cost, including incidental costs and deducting reductions in the<br />
acquisition costs, or at manufacturing costs and the previously accumulated and regularly<br />
amortised straight-line depreciation during the year under review, the following rates of depreciation<br />
being applied:<br />
Developed land and buildings on non-owned land 1.0% to 50.0%<br />
Technical equipment and machinery 5.0% to 50.0%<br />
Other plants, factory and business equipment 2.0% to 50.0%<br />
The useful life for machines and mechanical plant or factory and business equipment is normally<br />
determined using the “Österreichische Baugeräteliste” produced by the Association of Austrian<br />
Industrial Building Contractors (VIBÖ). In the case of large machinery, the useful life can be<br />
extended on the basis of technical service life.<br />
Low-value items are largely written off in full during the year of acquisition.<br />
The option of revaluation in accordance with IAS 16.37 is used in the case of real estate used for<br />
operational purposes. Opinions from independent experts were used as the basis for determining<br />
fair value. The book value was adjusted for market or fair value with neutral effect on income<br />
by means of a revaluation reserve in the equity capital. The revaluation reserve was reduced by<br />
the applicable passive deferred tax liability. Revaluations in the case of fully consolidated subsidiaries<br />
were taken into account pro rata.<br />
Real estate held as a financial investment is accounted for at the attributable value in accordance<br />
with IAS 40. This real estate comprises largely:<br />
- Offices and commercial buildings<br />
- Residential housing<br />
- Land<br />
The basis for the valuation was largely derived from the market value opinions of independent<br />
experts; in the absence of such expert opinions, the values in use were determined on the<br />
respective balance sheet date. The value in use is the present value of the estimated future cash<br />
flows expected to arise from the use of the assets.<br />

In the case of leasing agreements, where economic ownership is assigned to the leased object<br />
of a <strong>PORR</strong> Group company (finance leasing), capitalisation is performed at the attributable fair<br />
value or the present value of the lease instalments, whichever is the lower.<br />

The financial assets are basically valued at cost or, if a lower value is attributable, at that value.<br />
Shares in associated companies are valued at equity in accordance with IAS 28, provided they<br />
are not shares of minor significance. The same valuation methods as those for fully consolidated<br />
companies are generally used.<br />
Non-consolidated subsidiaries and other shareholdings, unless valued at equity, are valued at<br />
cost or fair value, whichever is the lower.<br />
Raw materials and supplies were valued at cost price or on the basis of the VIBÖ price list for<br />
2002.<br />
For manufacturing contracts, profit is realised by the percentage of completion method. The<br />
recalculated amounts realised are stated as sales revenue.<br />
If work is done on manufacturing contracts which exceeds the amount of the payments on<br />
account, this is stated in the item for future receivables from manufacturing contracts. If the<br />
amount of the payments on account is greater than the service provided, the amount is stated<br />
in the liabilities from percentage of completion.<br />
Impending losses are accounted for on the date they become apparent.<br />
The service actually performed by the balance sheet date provides the measure of the level of<br />
completion.<br />
In the case of manufacturing contracts executed in joint ventures, the realisation of profit is<br />
performed taking account of the percentage of completion method in accordance with the service<br />
actually provided as of the balance sheet date. Impending losses from the further course of<br />
construction are accounted for by means of corresponding decreases in value. In addition to<br />
capital contributions, receipts and expenditure and transfer pricing, the accounts receivable<br />
and payable with respect to joint ventures also include pro rata profit on contracts.<br />
Accounts receivable and other assets are basically accounted for at nominal value. Where risks<br />
existed regarding recovery, value adjustments have been formed. Accounts receivable in foreign<br />
currency are entered at the rate applicable on the balance sheet date.<br />

Deferred tax items are formed in the case of deviations between the valuations of assets and<br />
liabilities under IFRS and the tax valuations at the level of the probable future tax debt or relief.<br />
In addition, a deferred tax asset for future assets resulting from tax loss carry-forwards is recognised<br />
if there is sufficient certainty of realisation. Deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from<br />
valuation differences are set off if the option of legal offsetting is available. Differences arising<br />
from goodwill that cannot be deducted for tax purposes constitute exceptions to this comprehensive<br />
tax deferment.<br />
The calculation of the deferred tax amount is based on the rate of income tax valid in the country<br />
concerned; for Austrian companies the tax rate of 25% (which came into force in 2005) is<br />
applied.<br />
The provisions for severance payments, anniversary bonuses and pensions were determined by<br />
the projected unit credit method in accordance with IAS 19. In the valuation of these provisions,<br />
an interest rate for accounting purposes of 4.7% (previous year: 5.5%) was applied with performance-related<br />
increments of 2% p.a. In the determination of provisions for severance payments<br />
and anniversary bonuses, deductions were made for fluctuation based on statistical data.<br />
The other provisions take into account all discernible risks and contingent liabilities. They are<br />
entered on the balance sheet date at the level required by commercial assessment in order to be<br />
able to meet the Group’s future payment obligations. The amount stated is always that which<br />
appears the most probable on prudent examination of the facts.<br />
Liabilities are stated at the nominal value or the higher repayment amount.<br />
In the case of finance leasing agreements, the amount stated for liabilities is at the level of the<br />
present value of the lease instalments.<br />
To a certain degree, estimates and assumptions are inevitably made in the consolidated accounts<br />
which affect the assets and liabilities, the statement of other liabilities on the balance sheet<br />
date and the statement of income and expenditure during the <strong>report</strong>ing period. The amounts that<br />
actually result in future may deviate from these estimates.<br />

out to bearer. On liquidation of the company, primarily the holders of capital share certificates<br />
receive any remaining shares in the profit from the remaining liquidation proceeds and the pro<br />
rata amount of the capital apportioned to capital share certificates. However, these certificates<br />
do not confer any shareholder rights such as voting rights, subscription rights or rights of appeal.<br />

Provisions for severance payments were formed for employees (blue collar and salaried) with<br />
claims to severance payments under a collective agreement. The Construction Workers’ Leave<br />
and Severance Pay Act 1987 applies to the majority of blue collar workers; for this reason, no<br />
provisions for severance payments need to be provided for these employees.<br />
In the <strong>PORR</strong> Group, only a small number of <strong>management</strong> employees have pension commitments<br />
from the employer. Such pension commitments are not normally fund-linked performance-related<br />
commitments. The pension plans are based on years of service.<br />
The provisions for buildings contain provisions for impending losses from contract backlogs,<br />
foreign risks, damage to buildings and guarantees.<br />
The provisions for employees consist in particular of holidays not taken, bonuses, anniversary<br />
bonuses, disability compensation payments and employee time credits stemming from the<br />
annual working hours regulations.<br />

23. NOTES ON THE CASH FLOW STATEMENT<br />
The cash flow is shown by the indirect method with separate cash flows resulting from operating,<br />
investing and financing activities. The financial fund comprises exclusively cash on hand/at bank<br />
and short-term investments. Effects of changes in the consolidated entity were eliminated and<br />
largely <strong>report</strong>ed in the cash flow from investing activities.<br />
The financial fund is composed as follows:<br />
IN EUR THOUSAND 31.12.2005 31.12.2004<br />
Cash on hand and at bank 101,615.1 68,770.2<br />
24. NOTES ON THE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS<br />
The original financial instruments on the asset side essentially comprise financial assets, trade<br />
debtors and liquid funds; on the liabilities side they comprise financial liabilities and trade<br />
creditors.<br />
The <strong>PORR</strong> Group does not hold any derivative financial instruments.<br />
Interest rate risk<br />
Since the securities held are mainly investment fund units, it is not possible to provide details of<br />
the average rate of interest on the securities with fixed interest rates. The rates of interest for<br />
bonds, bank loans and overdrafts and for lease liabilities are as follows:<br />
Bonds: 3.9675 – 4.5%<br />
Bank loans and overdrafts: 1.7 – 6.5%<br />
Leasing: 2.6 – 5.9%<br />
Credit risk<br />
The risk in the case of accounts receivable from customers may be classified as low because of<br />
the broad dispersion and continual checks for creditworthiness.<br />
The risk of default in the case of other original financial instruments stated on the assets side of<br />
the balance sheet is also regarded as low because all contracting parties are financial institutions<br />
with prime credit standing. The level of financial assets represents the maximum risk of default.<br />
Currency risk<br />
Loan finance and assessment are mainly denominated in euros within the <strong>PORR</strong> Group.<br />
The currency risk to the <strong>PORR</strong> Group is only of minor significance.<br />

Our audit was conducted in accordance with legal and professional auditing principles<br />
generally accepted in Austria and in compliance with the International Standards on<br />
Auditing (ISA) issued by the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC). These standards<br />
require that we plan and perform our audit in such a way as to provide a reasonable<br />
basis for an opinion as to whether the consolidated accounts are free of material errors<br />
and whether the group <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong> is consistent with the consolidated accounts.<br />
When determining the auditing procedure, information on the business activities and the<br />
economic and legal environment of the group was taken into account along with the likelihood<br />
of potential errors. The audit involved a mainly sample-based examination of the<br />
supporting documentation for the figures and information in the consolidated accounts;<br />
it also included an assessment of the accounting principles applied and the material<br />
estimates carried out by the legal representatives, together with an evaluation of the overall<br />
presentation of the consolidated accounts. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable<br />
basis for our opinion.<br />
Our audit did not give rise to any objections. On the basis of the facts obtained during the<br />
course of the audit, the consolidated accounts correspond in our opinion to the statutory<br />
provisions and to the supplementary provisions in the statutes and reflect a true representation<br />
of the financial position of the group as of 31 st December 2005 as well as the earnings<br />
situation and cash flows of the group for the fiscal year from 1 st January 2005 to<br />
31 st December 2005 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards<br />
(IFRS) as applicable in the EU. The group <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong> accords with the consolidated<br />
accounts.<br />

SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT<br />
FOR THE ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2005<br />
At its meetings, the Supervisory Board has been kept constantly informed of the development<br />
of business and all important matters concerning the company through spoken and<br />
written <strong>report</strong>s from the Executive Board.<br />
The annual financial statements prepared by the Executive Board as of 31 st December<br />
2005, including the notes to the accounts and the <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong>, were jointly<br />
audited by Deloitte Wirtschaftsprüfungs GmbH of Vienna and BDO Auxilia Treuhand<br />
GmbH of Vienna. The audit based on the bookkeeping and documentation of the company<br />
as well as the explanations and documentation provided by the Executive Board revealed<br />
that the bookkeeping records and the annual financial statements complied with the legal<br />
requirements and provided no cause for complaint. The <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong> accords with<br />
the annual financial statements. The aforementioned audit companies have therefore<br />
issued an unqualified audit certificate.<br />
The Supervisory Board has audited, approved and certified the annual financial statements<br />
for 2005 and the <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong> for the fiscal year 2005, in particular through the<br />
advice provided at the financial audit committee in the presence of the auditors. The<br />
Supervisory Board agrees with the proposal of the Executive Board regarding the appropriation<br />
of profit.<br />

AUDITORS’ REPORT<br />
TO THE ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br />
FOR 31 ST DECEMBER 2005 FOR ALLGEMEINE BAUGESELLSCHAFT –<br />
A. <strong>PORR</strong> AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT<br />
We have audited the annual financial statements prepared by Allgemeine Baugesellschaft –<br />
A. Porr Aktiengesellschaft, Vienna, including the bookkeeping records, for the fiscal year<br />
from 1 st January 2005 to 31 st December 2005. The legal representatives of the parent company<br />
are responsible for bookkeeping, preparation and content in respect of these annual<br />
financial statements and of the <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong> in accordance with Austrian commercial<br />
law statutes and supplementary provisions in the statutes. Our task is to express an opinion<br />
on the annual financial statements on the basis of our audit and to state whether the <strong>management</strong><br />
<strong>report</strong> is consistent with the annual financial statements.<br />
Our audit was conducted in accordance with legal and professional auditing standards generally<br />
accepted in Austria. These standards require that we plan and perform our audit in such<br />
a way as to provide a reasonable basis for an opinion as to whether the annual financial<br />
statements are free of material errors and whether the <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong> is consistent with<br />
the annual financial statements. When determining the auditing procedure, information on<br />
the business activities and the economic and legal environment of the company was taken<br />
into account along with the likelihood of potential errors. The audit involved a mainly samplebased<br />
examination of the supporting documentation for the figures and information in the<br />
bookkeeping records and the annual financial statements; it also included an assessment<br />
of the accounting principles applied and the material estimates carried out by the legal<br />
representatives, together with an evaluation of the overall presentation of the annual financial<br />
statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.<br />
Our audit did not give rise to any objections. On the basis of the facts obtained during the<br />
course of the audit, the annual financial statements correspond in our opinion to the statutory<br />
provisions and to the supplementary provisions in the statutes and reflect a true representation<br />
of the financial position of the company as of 31 st December 2005 as well as the earnings<br />
situation of the company for the fiscal year from 1 st January 2005 to 31 st December 2005 in<br />
accordance with generally accepted accounting standards in Austria. The <strong>management</strong> <strong>report</strong><br />
accords with the annual financial statements.<br />
