Management Report of the Board of Directors - Financial Year 2008<br />

Turnover Trend per Market<br />

The consolidated operating profit was EUR 1,377,181<br />

thousand, representing a 29.1% increase compared to the<br />

amount reported for the previous year. This increase is<br />

basically due to the expansion of the external market, which<br />

was considerably greater than that observed in Portugal.<br />

The internal market grew 11.2% compared to the same period<br />

in the previous year, while the external market grew 46.9%,<br />

currently accounting for 57% of operating profit.<br />

(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euros)<br />

Despite the recognised and sharp contraction in the internal<br />

market, Portugal recorded a positive 13% increase in turnover.<br />

Even more significant is the progress in the Group’s exposure<br />

to other more dynamic economies, leading to a considerable<br />

increase in foreign contributions to this business sector,<br />

having strengthened its position even more in the external<br />

market, which now represents 57.1%.<br />

It is important to highlight the contribution of the construction<br />

sector to support the Group’s growth, accounting for more<br />

than 50% of the consolidated total operating profit, with an<br />

increase of 19.6% in Portugal and 58.6% abroad.<br />

The contribution of each business sector to the overall<br />

amount related to the consolidated operating profit was the<br />

The chart below shows the amounts of the contributions<br />

made by the different countries where Teixeira Duarte<br />

operated in 2007 and 2008, where the growth of the Angolan<br />

and Algerian markets stands out, with the latter currently<br />

accounting for more than 10% of total Turnover.<br />
