Strategic review 2012-2015
Refocusing on profitable growth
As announced at the June 10, 2011 shareholders meeting, and after four months at the head of the Altran group, the new Chairman and Chief Executive Philippe Salle has presented his strategic plan for 2012-2015, targeting a return to profitable growth with the launch of twelve major projects.
The strategic review carried out over the past few months confirms the high level of Altran's consulting expertise with regards to technological innovation and high-tech engineering and underscores the significant growth potential in the Group's field of activity.
It has also enabled management to identify numerous sources of potential performance improvement and prompted the launch of an ambitious growth and profitability action plan for the coming years.
Objectives
Boost sales > Revenue: more than €2.0bn in 2015
Enhance margins > EBITA: 11-12% of sales (at peak of cycle)
Cash generation > Free cash flow: 2-4% of sales
"After carrying out this strategic review, I am convinced that, in order to benefit fully from the numerous strengths the Group has to offer, we must refocus on our key markets and cut operating costs. This is the objective of the action plan that I have presented and will implement with my team over the coming months; a plan designed to revive growth and restore margins to levels more in keeping with the status of the Group."
