Performance by business area

Concessions.- Sacyr Concesiones reported revenue of €1.536 billion, up 21% compared with the first nine months of 2025.

Operating revenue increased by 11%, as the impact of the asset sales in Colombia was offset by the full-year contribution of Route 68 and Ruta del Itata in Chile, as well as progress on other projects in Colombia, Chile and the United Kingdom. Construction revenue increased by 45%, driven by the start of work on the Ontario Science Centre in Canada and increased activity in Chile and Colombia.

EBITDA reached €611 million (+9%), driven by strong operating performance despite the removal of the assets sold in Colombia from the scope of consolidation.

Engineering and Infrastructure.- Revenue reached €2.419 billion (+10%) in the first nine months, while EBITDA stood at €434 million (+7%). These increases were driven by the start of the company’s own construction projects in the United States, Canada, Paraguay, Chile and Spain.

The strategy for this business line focuses on controlling and reducing risk in projects for third parties. As a result of this strategy, projects for Sacyr Concesiones now account for 76% of the backlog, in line with the targets set out in the Strategic Plan.

The construction business’s EBITDA margin increased to 5%.

The Engineering and Infrastructure backlog stood at €12.8 billion, up 3% compared with December 2025.

Two major construction contracts for third parties were signed in the third quarter: Frimley Park Hospital in the United Kingdom, and Peel Health Campus in Australia.

Water.- This business line accelerated its growth, posting revenue of €323 million (+53%) and EBITDA of €55 million (+20%). The EBITDA margin increased to 23.3%.

These figures reflect the strong operating performance of Sacyr Water and the contribution of new projects, including the Antofagasta water reuse plant in Chile and the acquisition of Aigües de Esparraguera in Spain.

The Sacyr Water backlog stood at €8,089 million at the end of the third quarter, representing growth of 16% compared with December 2025.
