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.

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.'

Highways in North America delivered strong revenue performance Construction reported growth in order book and profitability AMSTERDAM, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ferrovial, a leading global infrastructure company, delivered significant growth in the first quarter of 2025, boosted by strong performance in all business divisions. Both revenue and adjusted EBITDA increased, mainly driven by U.S. highways. "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.

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to €309 million in the first quarter of 2025, a 19.1% increase year over year in like-for-like terms, while revenue totaled €2.1 billion, a 7.4% growth in like-for-like terms, boosted by substantial growth across the board. Ferrovial closed the first quarter with a solid financial position, with liquidity of €5.3 billion and consolidated net debt of -€1.8 billion, excluding infrastructure projects in both cases.

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.
