Commenting on the Financial Results for the FY 2023, Ellaktor's CEO, Efthymios Bouloutas, mentioned: «2023 was a pivotal year for ELLAKTOR Group, with total net earnings from Continuing Operations of €116m, and net and operating profitability registering 10-year highs. This substantial profitability was premised on a consistent operating restructuring and the active management of the Group’s assets. The Group is now focusing on profitably growing Continuing Operations and generating stable, predictable cash flows. During 2023, the Group concluded two significant transactions; the sale of AKTOR and the sale of retail park Smart Park, while during Q1 2024, we disposed of our remaining 25% stake in Anemos RES. As a result, our Group’s total liquidity currently exceeds €700m. Leveraging the outstanding quality and know-how of our people and the substantial liquidity buffers, we are poised to play a leading role for the benefit of our shareholders, employees and society»
