Ferrovial posts 19% EBITDA growth in Q1 2025

Ferrovial has registered a 19.1% increase in adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) to €309m ($346.05m) in the first quarter (Q1) of 2025. The rise was attributed to robust performance across all business divisions. The company's revenue reached €2.1bn, marking a 7.4% growth, with the US Highways division significantly contributing to this rise. The Highways division saw a 14.1% revenue increase to €324m, primarily due to growth in North America. US Express Lanes reported notable revenue per transaction growth, despite weather and calendar challenges. In Canada, 407 ETR demonstrated strong performance with double-digit EBITDA growth. Ferrovial's Construction division achieved a 3.3% adjusted EBIT margin, continuing its positive trend and improving from last year's performance. The order book reached a record €17.2bn, with North America contributing 45%, Poland 24%, and Spain 14%. In the Airports division, construction of the New Terminal One (NTO) at JFK International Airport advanced by 6% in the first quarter. Currently, NTO has secured 18 airline agreements, with 13 contracts executed and five letters of intention. As of 31 March 2025, Ferrovial reported €5.3bn in liquidity and a consolidated net debt of -€1.8bn. In the quarter, the company completed the sale of a 50% stake in AGS Airports for €538m and received €19m in dividends from projects during this period. Additionally, Ferrovial allocated €156m to shareholder distributions and €152m to equity injections in the NTO project. Ferrovial CEO Ignacio Madridejos said: 'We saw strong revenue growth across our North American assets during the first quarter, driven by robust underlying activity in the regions where these assets are located. 'We deliver the connectivity our customers demand. Our Construction division reported a healthy order book, with anticipated limited exposure to macroeconomic uncertainty.'

Royal Air Maroc to launch operations from JFK's New Terminal 1 in 2026

Royal Air Maroc and The New Terminal One (NTO)—the new Terminal 1 at New York's John F. Kennedy (JFK) International Airport—have signed a strategic partnership that will allow the national airline to operate its flights from the new terminal starting in June 2026. This milestone marks a new chapter in the airline's growth strategy in the United States. This long-term partnership is part of Royal Air Maroc's broader strategy to strengthen transatlantic ties between Africa and the Americas while offering an enhanced customer experience through one of its key international gateways, the two parties stated in a joint press release. The New Terminal One is a central element of the JFK airport transformation project, spearheaded by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Backed by a $19 billion investment, the ambitious initiative aims to position JFK as a premier global gateway. The project includes the creation of two new terminals, the modernization and expansion of two existing terminals, a new ground transportation center, and a completely redesigned and simplified road network. Currently, Royal Air Maroc operates its flights to Casablanca from the existing Terminal 1 at JFK, with two daily frequencies using Boeing 787 aircraft. Beginning in June 2026, the airline will relocate its operations to the new Terminal 1. Royal Air Maroc will be the first oneworld alliance member to operate from the new Terminal 1, joining a growing community of leading international airlines, including Air France, KLM, Etihad, LOT Polish Airlines, Korean Air, EVA Air, Air Serbia, SAS, Neos, Philippine Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Air New Zealand, and Air China.

750 places on degree level courses offered outside CAO system

More than 750 places on degree level courses in areas including Occupational Therapy and Nursing are being offered to applicants outside of the CAO points system for this coming September. The courses in OT and Nursing are among six new programmes that have been added to existing programmes designed and supported by the National Tertiary Office in what is a relatively new college entry route first introduced in 2023. Unlike traditional third level programmes, under the NTO courses students begin their studies in further education colleges run by the country's Education and Training Boards before transferring after one or two years to complete their studies at a nearby university. Announcing details of the 6 new courses on offer, Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science James Lawless, said the initiatives "are giving more students than ever the chance to pursue their ambitions without being tied down by the CAO points race". As well as having no points requirement students are not charged tuition fees for their first one or two years of study. The 6 courses include Occupational Therapy beginning in Cork College of Further Education and Training or Kerry College of Further Education and progressing at UCC; Nursing at Waterford Wexford ETB and South East Technological University; A BA in Politics, Society and Media at Ballyfermot and Rathmines FET colleges and Technological University Dublin; a BSc in Digital Arts in Tipperary ETB and Technological University of the Shannon; and a BA in Social Care Practice offered by Cavan and Monaghan ETB and Atlantic Technological University. Applications have already opened and students can apply through the National Tertiary Office, at The first Tertiary Bachelors' Degrees opened in 2023 with 13 programmes on offer. Since then the number has trebled to 38. Twenty programmes are being offered for the first time this year. Minister Lawless said: "I understand that many young people feel anxious about their educational future, worrying each year if their Leaving Certificate results will be enough to get into the course they want. These programmes ensure that your exam results won't limit your options. If you're willing to study and work hard, there's a path for you in tertiary education." The National Tertiary Office said the courses are designed in partnership with industry to tackle skills shortages and equip students for careers in sectors that need them. Tanya Jones, Deputy Director of the NTO said: "Learners should be able to pursue a degree regardless of their background, family circumstances, or financial situation. No points are required, and there's no fees in the early years. There are no compromises; students earn the same Bachelor's Degree, it's just a different route." Ms Jones said demand was increasing year on year, demonstrating the need for and importance of more accessible routes.
