Roads Revenue in Mainland France rose by 5% compared to the first half of 2017. All six regional subsidiaries contributed to this increase, in line with market growth. Revenue in Europe increased by 12% compared to the first half of 2017 (+14% at constant scope and exchange rates). Growth remains strong, both in the British Isles and Continental Europe, especially in central Europe. Revenue in North America was up 24% compared to the first half of 2017 (+3% at constant scope and exchange rates), mostly in Canada due to the contribution of Miller McAsphalt (€243 million as of March 1, 2018; the contribution of March to June was posted in the 2nd quarter 2018). In the Rest of the World (International units, excluding Europe and North America), revenue was up 8% compared to the first half of 2017 (+12% at constant scope and exchange rates). Growth was strong in Oceania (+17% at constant scope and exchange rates), boosted by Australia.

Specialized Activities In the first half of 2018, revenue from the Specialized Activities segment totaled €903 million, down 7% compared to the first half of 2017 (-7% at constant scope and exchange rates). This drop is mainly attributable to Networks (-16%) and Railways (-9%), the latter being impacted by a decline in business in France, mainly due to consequences of the situation at French national rail company, SNCF.

Production of materials In France and around the world, Colas is involved in large-scale production of construction materials, including aggregates, backed by an international network of 741 quarries, 568 asphalt plants, 125 emulsion plants and 168 concrete plants. In the first half of 2018, 49 million metric tons of aggregates (+14% compared to the first half of 2017), 16 million metric tons of asphalt mix (+14%), 876,000 metric tons of binders and emulsions (+18%) and 1.3 million cubic meters of ready-mix concrete (+17%) were manufactured.

Profitability Current operating profit in the first half of the year was -174 million euros, compared to -136 million euros in the first half of 2017, down 38 million euros. Current operating income remained stable in the second quarter at €128 million:

• it benefitted from a rising contribution from the Roads segment, after a first quarter impacted by severe weather in most areas,

• on the other hand, it was negatively impacted by the difficulties of the Railway business in France, particularly by the situation at the French national railway company, SNCF.

Income from associates and joint ventures totaled €17 million compared to €33 million at the end of June 2017, due to a smaller contribution from Tipco Asphalt, which experienced a slowdown in business. Net profit attributable to the Group amounted to -€130 million in the first half of 2018, compared to -€88 million in the first half of 2017.

Financial structure Net financial debt as of June 30, 2018 totaled €1,314 million, compared to net financial debt of €570 million at the end of June 2017. The change from December 31, 2017 (net financial surplus of €433 million) includes the acquisition of the Miller McAsphalt Group in Canada, in addition to the impact of the usual seasonal nature of businesses.

Work on hand Work on hand at the end of June 2018 amounted to €9.5 billion, up 18% from the end of June 2017. These figures include 0.8 billion euros pertaining to Miller McAsphalt. At constant exchange rates, work on hand was up 21% (+11% excluding Miller McAsphalt). Work on hand in Mainland France is up 8% while work on hand in international and overseas units is up 25%.

Outlook 2018 revenue is expected to be significantly higher than in 2017 due in part to Miller McAsphalt's contribution. Current operating profit margin is expected to improve, subject to the usual weather conditions and the availability of raw materials.

Declaration of compliance The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Colas and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of June 30, 2018 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”, an IFRS standard as endorsed by the European Union. Because they are condensed, these financial statements do not include all the information required under IFRS standards, and should be read in conjunction with the full-year financial statements of the Colas Group for the year ended 31 December 2017. They were prepared in accordance with the standards issued by the IASB including: IFRSs, IASs (International Accounting Standards), supplemented by the interpretations made by the former International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"), now called IFRS Interpretation Committee or issued by the agency that preceded the Standing Interpretation Committee ("SIC"), approved by the Union European and applicable to that date. At June 30, 2018, the Group has not applied standard or interpretation by anticipation, not approved by the European Union. The accounts present in millions of euros (unless otherwise stated): the balance sheet, the income statement, the statement of recognized income and expense, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, the consolidated cash flow statement and the notes. They are presented compared with consolidated accounts at 31 December 2017 and the consolidated condensed to June 30, 2017.

NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT FACTS

1.1 Significant facts of the first half of 2018

• In line with the memorandum of understanding signed on 30 August 2017, Colas completed the acquisition of the

entire share capital of the Miller McAsphalt group on 28 February 2018. The Miller McAsphalt group is a major

player in road construction and bitumen distribution in Canada, with a particularly strong presence in Ontario. Over

the last three years, it has generated average annual sales of approximately CAD 1.3 billion, with an average

operating profit margin of 7% over the three last years. It employs 3,300 people. The provisional purchase price

paid on the completion date was CAD 913 million, equivalent to € 585 million. The acquisition was financed for an

amount of € 410 million by debt. The contribution to the result of the acquired business has been registered for 4

months of operation to end June 2018.

• On 26 March 2018, Bouygues Construction and Colas announced the acquisition of Alpiq Engineering Services,

which specializes in hard and soft services in construction and in energy, industrial and transport infrastructures.

Alpiq employs nearly 7,650 people and generated sales of approximately CHF 1.7 billion in 2017, mainly in

Page 11: HALF-YEAR REPORT AS OF JUNE 30, 2018 CONTENTS - Colas · HALF-YEAR REPORT AS OF JUNE 30, 2018 CONTENTS Colas’ half-year activity report as of June 30, 2018 (French monetary and

- 7 -

Switzerland (57%), Germany (24%) and Italy (12%). The acquisition was completed on the basis of an enterprise

value of CHF 850 million (CHF 700 million for Bouygues Construction, CHF 150 million for Colas Rail).

1.2 Significant facts subsequent to 30 June 2018

▪ On 31 July 2018, closing occurred on the acquisition of Alpiq Engineering Services, following clearance from the

European and Swiss competition authorities on 11 July 2018. A provisional purchase price of € 144 million was paid to

acquire the entire share capital by Colas Rail.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND POLICIES

2.1 Preparation principles of the financial statements

Condensed interim consolidated accounts of the Group Colas include the financial statements of Colas SA and its

subsidiaries, as well as investments in associated entities, joint ventures and joint activities. They are presented in millions of euros, currency in which the majority of the Group's operations is treated, and comply with the recommendations of the Autorité des Normes Comptables (ANC), the French national accounting standard-setter, nr. 2016-01 of December 2, 2016 concerning the presentation of financial statements. They were approved for publication by the Board of Directors on August 28, 2018. The Condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the half year 2018 have been prepared in accordance with IFRS standards and principles, based on historical cost, with the exception of certain financial assets and liabilities, measured at fair value where this is required by IFRS. They are presented in comparison with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and at the end of June 2017. Condensed interim consolidated accounts specific assessment methods are as follows:

• For interim financial statements, consolidated income tax is determined according to the principles defined by the IAS

34 standard. The income tax of each company is taken into account in respect of the period based on the best estimate

of the average annual tax rate expected for the full year (except for holding companies determined according to actual

tax at end of period).

• Expenses accounted for in the period in respect of the employee benefits are prorated charges estimated for the year,

calculated on the basis of actuarial assumptions and forecasts to December 31, 2017. A drop of 70 basis points of the

discount rate (1.50 % at December 31, 2017) would lead to an increase in the provision for employee retirement

indemnities of EUR 25 million. This impact would be apprehended in the statement of recognized income and expense.

2.2 New IFRS Standards, amendments and interpretations As of June 30, 2018, the Group applied the standards, interpretations, accounting principles and methods that were applied in the financial statements of fiscal year 2017, with the exception of mandatory changes laid down by the IFRS standards mentioned below, applicable as from January 1, 2018.

• Main IFRS standards, amendments and interpretations in force within the European Union, of mandatory or applicable application by January 1, 2018:

▪ IFRS 9 financial instruments:

On 24 July 2014, the IASB issued a new standard on financial instruments intended to replace most of the current IFRS

pronouncements on this subject, in particular IAS 39. The new standard, which was endorsed by the European Union

on 22 November 2016, is applicable from 1 January 2018. The Group has decided not to early adopt this standard.

The Group has applied the classification, measurement and impairment principles of IFRS 9 retrospectively with effect

from 1 January 2018, with no restatement of prior period comparatives on first time application. The hedge accounting

Page 12: HALF-YEAR REPORT AS OF JUNE 30, 2018 CONTENTS - Colas · HALF-YEAR REPORT AS OF JUNE 30, 2018 CONTENTS Colas’ half-year activity report as of June 30, 2018 (French monetary and

- 8 -

principles of IFRS 9 will also be applied by the Group with effect from 1 January 2018, using a prospective approach

in accordance with the standard.

The impacts of applying this standard with effect from 1 January 2018 are not material.

▪ IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On 28 May 2014, the IASB issued a new standard on revenue recognition intended to replace most of the current IFRS

pronouncements on this subject, in particular IAS 11 and IAS 18. The new standard was endorsed by the European

Union on 29 October 2016 and is applicable from 1 January 2018. The Bouygues group has not early adopted IFRS

15, which it will apply retrospectively with effect from 1 January 2018; the 2017 figures presented in 2018 will also be

restated to reflect the impacts of IFRS 15.

The impacts of applying this standard with effect from 1 January 2018 are not material.

• Standard effective within the European Union and mandatorily applicable from 1 January 2019

▪ IFRS 16: leases

On 13 January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16, “Leases”. IFRS 16 will replace IAS 17, along with the associated

IFRIC and SIC interpretations, and for lessees will end the distinction previously made between operating leases

and finance leases. Lessees will be required to account for all leases with a term of more than one year in a manner

similar to that currently specified for finance leases under IAS 17, involving the recognition of an asset for the rights,

and a liability for the obligations, arising under the lease. New standard, which has been endorsed by the European

Union, is applicable from 1 January 2019. The new standard, endorsed by the European Union on 31 October 2017

is applicable from 1 January 2019.

The Group has not early adopted IFRS 16, and for first-time application has elected the retrospective approach with

presentation of a comparative year.

The impact of IFRS 16 is currently under review. Given the expected changes in lease accounting and various uncertainties (including determination of the term of some leases), the detailed information on leases as provided in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 is not indicative of the actual impact that IFRS 16 might have on those financial statements.

• Essential interpretation issued by the IASB but not yet endorsed by the European Union:

• IFRIC 23: Uncertainty Over Income Tax Treatments

On 7 June 2017, the IFRS Interpretations Committee issued IFRIC 23, which is mandatorily applicable from 1 January 2019 and has not yet been endorsed by the European Union. IFRIC 23 clarifies the accounting treatments used to recognize the fiscal consequences of uncertainties relating to income taxes. The Group has not elected early adoption of IFRIC 23, and is reviewing the potential consequences of applying it.

2.3 Seasonal nature of business

Revenue and operating income figures are clearly marked by the strong seasonal nature of Colas’ business, which is reflected in the low level of activity during the first half year due to poor weather conditions. The amplitude of the phenomena varies from year to year. In compliance with IFRS principles, interim revenue is recognized in the same conditions as it is at year end.
