Year in review

In 2016, CITIC Construction recorded revenue of RMB7,739 million and a net profit attributable to shareholders of RMB1,184 million. New projects have not yet contributed to revenue or profit as they are either recently signed or still at a preliminary stage, a major reason for the company’s revenue and profit decrease for the year.

Deepening economic and social challenges in Africa and Latin America, both of which are established markets for CITIC Construction, increasingly had an impact on the business in 2016. However, CITIC Construction responded to this changing market context by exploring new opportunities emerging from China’s Belt and Road initiative. It has successfully signed a road rehabilitation project in Kazakhstan. As of early 2017, it is approaching completion of an automobile production line in Belarus for Chinese automaker Geely. The company is also aggressively pursuing opportunities at home, as demonstrated by its recent successful bids for contracting on PPP projects in Yunnan and Guizhou.

By the end of the year, the total value of signed contracts by CITIC Construction was RMB36.2 billion, of which RMB204.2 billion was contributed by new contracts signed during the year.
