In the second quarter 2014 Indra's business performed in line with the forecasts offered at the start of the year. Business activity was slightly more buoyant in Spain during the second quarter compared to the first. This trend is likely to continue into the second half based on recently macroeconomic indicators.

This forex performance, particular from Latin American currencies, has undermined growth in the region by 18 points in comparative terms.

Total revenue stood at €1,476mn, representing a slight 1% decline for the reported numbers (in euro) against the same period in 2013, while at constant exchange rates (in the local currency) there would have been growth of 5%.

The company continues to perform well in the regions where it operates, with the exception of the Spanish market (representing 39% of the total), where revenue was down 9%.

There was a flat performance from Security & Defense, while the numbers from the Energy & Industry business, with a decline of 3%, and Telecoms & Media, dipping 13%, reflect the challenging situation faced by these markets, particularly Spain, although improvements are expected over the second half of the year.

Order intake stood at €1,647mn, 12% higher than revenue, which was in line with the first half 2013.
