Raymund Trost, CEO of CFE, said :

CFE Group delivered a solid performance during the first half of 2025 despite a challenging macro-economic environment. Our operational results increased by 150% with all business segments contributing positively and we further strengthened our balance sheet with a mid-year record low financial debt position. This is the result of the continuous focus of our exceptional talents on high selectivity for new projects, operational excellence in project delivery and attractive opportunities in our growth markets of energy efficient buildings, quality housing, smart industry and infrastructure for the energy transition.

We have again proved the resilience of our multi-disciplinary business model and are well positioned to provide total solutions to increasingly complex challenges for our valued clients by combing the global expertise of our group.
