  • ANNUAL Report 2O12
    ANNUAL REPORT 2O12 The sea ahead ANNUAL REPORT 2O12 GIUSEPPE BONO CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF FINCANTIERI Dear Shareholders, The year 2012 was a challenging one for Fincantieri in the face of a complex global environment, marked by increased competitive pressure and continued market depression but with oppor- tunities of growing strategic importance in the area of high-value new generation ships. This trend is confirmed by the fact that the merchant shipping industry’s investments in new vessels amounted to approximately USD 100 billion, in line with the 2011 figure, while reporting a 20% decrease in compensated gross tonnage. Unfortunately, the level of orders is still insufficient to ensure proper utilization of worldwide production capacity, with consequent pressure on prices. Fincantieri faces a shipping industry that is cautious about investment and wary of depressing fleet profitability, already under pressure due to the growth in operating costs, primarily sparked by the growth in bunker fuel price. The absence of speculative behavior, at least, is helping acce- lerate the process of industry rebalancing, in readiness for a medium-term recovery in demand. In the military field, defense budget cuts, especially in Europe and the United States, are heighte- ning the strategic importance of export markets that more and more often are demanding the transfer of technology or local construction. With regard to Fincantieri’s sectors of operation, the cruise industry has once again demonstra- ted flexibility and responsiveness to the crisis. Analysts are forecasting 3.8% average annual growth in cruise passenger numbers, an estimate that nonetheless reflects very prudent as- sumptions about expected growth in the Asian tourist market.

Along with our regular contributors, we have a couple of articles that I know you will really enjoy. One is from our PMO located in Miami Florida, David Dellinger. David sub- mitted an article on a strange phenomenon “fall streak holes”. I myself have never seen this particular type phenomenon nor did I know it existed. Rarely does it occur so far south in the Miami area, Mariners Weather Log so as you can imagine, Dave and emergency managers received quite ISSN 0025-3367 a few phone calls. Recently, (within the past couple of weeks) I was invited to a local art show by a friend.
