ROS was 9.0% compared to 8.9% in the same period of 2012. Specifically: • the Signalling business unit recognised an operating profit of e43,215 thousand (e47,851 thousand in the corresponding period of 2012). The e4,636 thousand decrease is due to the different mix and profitability of projects in the reporting period and the corresponding period of the previous year; • the Transportation Solutions business unit recognised an operating profit of e39,186 thousand, slightly down by e1,092 thousand on the corresponding period of the previous year (e40,278 thousand), due to the greater impact of commercial costs. EBIT and ROS for the periods ended 30 September 2013 - 2012 (€m) 78.3 77.6 2013 2012 9.0% 8.9% September September 30 30 Net invested capital totalled e302,819 thousand, compared to e167,184 thousand at 31 December 2012. The increase is mainly due to the improvement in net working capital from -e48,147 thousand at 31 December 2012 to e84,988 thousand at 30 September 2013. Specifically, the increase in work in progress and the decrease in trade payables were only partly offset by the decrease in trade receivables. The group’s net financial position (greater loans and receivables and cash and cash equivalents than loans and borrowings) at 30 September 2013 was e185,368 thousand, compared to e301,982 thousand at 31 December 2012, down e116,614 thousand, after the e28,800 thousand dividend payment approved by the shareholders in their meeting of 6 May 2013 and the repayment of loans and borrowings by the Indian subsidiary. It includes the e70,643 thousand advance received from the Russian customer, Zarubezhstroytechnology (“ZST”), for the project signed in August 2010 and interrupted as from 21 February 2011, for the development of signalling, automation, telecommunication, power distribution, security and ticketing systems on the Sirth to Benghazi section in Libya. Loans and receivables also includes the euro equivalent amount of the Libyan dinars received as an advance on the first of the two contracts acquired in Libya and deposited in a local bank (e28,443 thousand). In August, ZST requested the enforcement of the Advance Payment Bond issued by the bank, Credit Agricole, to guarantee such advance. The customer claims breach of contract by Ansaldo STS. In its defence, the company stated that ZST’s enforcement should be considered illegitimate as the latter’s claim that Ansaldo STS breached its obligations as subcontractor was fraudulent. The company claims the contract was not executed due to force majeure following the disorder that has been rife in Libya in recent years. In light of the above, on 14 August 2013, the judge of the Milan Civil Court allowed Ansaldo STS’s request and ruled in favour of the latter, ordering Credit Agricole not to proceed with the enforcement requested by ZST. On 12 October, the Milan Civil Court confirmed the decree of 14 August 2013, also ruling that Credit Agricole and ZST, with the latter intervening in the proceedings, should pay the legal fees. Cash and cash equivalents at 30 September 2013 amounted to e103,184 thousand, compared to e146,837 thousand at 31 December 2012. The free operating cash flow (FOCF) used before strategic transactions totalled e75,553 thousand, compared to e63,536 thousand for the nine months ended 30 September 2012; this is largely due to the change in working capital. Research and development expense for the reporting period totalled e21,879 thousand, down e1,959 thousand over the corresponding period of the previous year (e23,838 thousand).
