Although we achieved our planned revenue of EUR 1.51 billion, we recorded a substantial loss. We are just as disappointed about that as our shareholders. Over the com- ing years we will be making every effort to turn the situation around. A well construction project in Jordan saw a risk occur which resulted in a major loss. The causes of the loss were not of a structural nature. On our large-scale construction projects we have to make assumptions regarding the ground conditions which do not always match the reality when actually carrying out the work.
