&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Excellent performance of emerging markets, especially of our Egyptian operations 
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Significant negative exchange rate effect 
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Low level of debt 
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Vertical integration process under way (North America, Kuwait)

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In 2007 weak activity in mature markets, especially in the US housing sectorin USA, favourable construction market in emerging countries&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In this context, expansion in the Emerging Markets supported slight growth in2007 revenues. Modest decrease in EBITDA, penalised by energy costs andforex effect. Net profit affected by higher depreciation and financial charges&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A two-step program to achieve excellence in operating performance and afixed costs control plan will drive significant savings both in the short andmedium term&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Expansion in emerging countries, by now more than 50% of total cementcapacity, will continue&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In a more challenging scenario, 2008 operating results targeted to be in linewith 2007&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</description>

&lt;li&gt;Increase in revenues but GOP slowdown due to cost increase not fully offset by price evolution; positive scope effect but negative forex impact. Net profit penalised by increase in financial charges and taxes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In a more difficult scenario, the Group confirms full year 2007 guidance of operating results close to 2006 level. The comparison on Net Profit will be impacted by a negative tax effect for non recurring items 10 mt of new state-of-the-art capacity foreseen within 2010 represents the first step in an ambitious investments plan focusing on efficiency, additional capacity and vertical integration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Continuing expansion in the Emerging Countries both in cement and ready-mix concrete and aggregates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Innovation strategy will enable the Group to reinforce its competitive edge through higher value added products&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
