\"\"<\/strong>Operating growth was driven by traffic performance, entry into operation of toll roads in Spain and the US, improved margins, and expansion in the car park business<\/strong><\/p>\n

EBIT increased by 37.3% to 132.8 million euro<\/strong><\/p>\n

Revenues increased by 49.7% to 321.7 million euro<\/strong><\/p>\n

Growing international footprint: 71% of EBIT and 63.4% of revenues came from other countries<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cintra, a company specialised in bidding for and managing toll roads and car parks, attained 51.3 million euro of consolidated net profit in the first half of 2005, 490.2% more than in the same period of 2004. Adjusted net profit, not counting the sale of 5% of Ausol and the release of the provision at Autopista del Maipo (Chile), would have increased by 38.6%.<\/p>\n

EBIT increased by 37.3% to 132.8 million euro. EBITDA rose by 38.8% to 212.4 million euro, and the EBITDA margin reached 66%; 71% of EBITDA was generated outside Spain.<\/p>\n

Net sales amounted to 321.7 million euro in 1H05, 49.7% more than in 1H04.<\/p>\n

This growth in operating figures was due primarily to good traffic performance on the main toll roads, higher tolls on 407 ETR (7.2% higher since 8 February), the entry into service of the R-4 in Spain and the Chicago Skyway in the US, and the consolidation of the car park business as a result of the restructuring that preceded the IPO in October 2004.<\/p>\n

Foreign revenues increased by 23.3% to 203.9 million euro and accounted for 63.4% of the total. Revenues from activities in Spain increased by 138.5% to 117.8 million euro.<\/p>\n

The 1H05 accounts include the effect of the ownership restructuring in October 2004 prior to the initial public offering. Accordingly, the 1H05 accounts differ from 1H04 in the following respects: addition of the car park business; reduction of the stake in Canadian toll road 407 ETR from 67.10% to 53.23% (a difference of 13.87%); acquisition of 50% of Sociedad Inversora de Autopistas de Levante, S.L., which owns 100% of the company that holds the concession for the Oca\u00f1a-La Roda toll road.<\/p>\n

Toll roads: traffic increased and operation of the first toll road in the USA commenced<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cintra\u00b4s toll road division, which currently has 18 concessions, increased revenues by 22.3% to 262.9 million euro.<\/p>\n

EBITDA grew by 25.5% to 192 million euro in the first half of 2005. Canadian toll road 407 ETR made a notable contribution to this result (39% of the total), and its EBITDA increased by 21.8% due to a reduction in billing expenses.<\/p>\n

The EBITDA margin in the toll roads business increased by 100 basis points to 74.4% due mainly to improvements at 407 ETR, Ausol II (Estepona-Guadiaro) and Autema (Terrassa-Manresa).<\/p>\n

Traffic increased considerably on the main corridors in 1H05:<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0Canada – 407 ETR registered 276,455 daily trips (six-monthly average), a 5.8% increase, and vehicle kilometres travelled (VKT) rose 7.1% to 975.4 million. The daily traffic record was beaten three times in June (absolute record of 413,687 vehicles on 30 June);<\/p>\n

\u00b7 USA Chicago Skyway attained an average daily traffic (ADT) of 43,834 in the first half of 2005;<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Spain – Ausol I attained an average daily traffic of 18,463 vehicles, and Ausol II registered 16,961, a 12.8% increase; Autema increased ADT by 6.6% to 19,659, and the R-4 attained 6,082;<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Portugal – Scut Algarve registered a 4.2% increase in ADT to 16,970 vehicles.<\/p>\n

Highlights of the toll road division in the period:<\/p>\n

– Selection by Ireland\u00b4s National Roads Authority (NRA) to negotiate a 45-year concession for the\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 M3 toll road between Clonee and North Kells (projected investment: 600 million euro);
\n– Award in July of the concession to build and operate the M-203 toll road in Madrid;
\n– Entry into service of the new electronic toll system on the Chicago Skyway;
\n– Sale of 5% of Ausol to Unicaja. Cintra currently owns 80% of Ausol;
\n– Increase in the stake in Chilean toll road Talca-Chill\u00e1n to 67.61%.<\/p>\n

Car parks: the number of managed parking spaces grew by 8.1%, maintaining Cintra\u00b4s leading position<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cintra\u00b4s car park business reported 58.8 million euro in revenues, 20.4 million euro in EBITDA and 13.8 million euro in EBIT in the first half of 2005. A comparison with the first half of 2004, when this area was not part of Cintra, reveals significant growth: 23.9% in revenues, 34.5% in EBITDA and 50.5% in EBIT.<\/p>\n

At the end of 1H05, Cintra managed 214,218 parking spaces, i.e. 8.1% more than in 1H04, reinforcing its position as Spain”s leading car park operator. Cintra manages 48,294 off-street spaces (22.5% of the total); on-street spaces increased by 8.1% to 141,154 (65.9% of the total); and private parking spaces increased by 25.2% (24,770 spaces), representing 11.6% of the total.<\/p>\n

Cintra Aparcamientos was awarded the concession to operate the municipal car park at Avenida Francesc Maci\u00e1 in Sant Cugat del Vall\u00e9s, while subsidiary Dornier obtained on-street parking management contracts in the towns of O Barco de Valdeorras, Illescas and Villanueva de la Serena, as well as an extension to the on-street parking management concessions in Yecla and Sitges.<\/p>\n
