"2024 - commented the CEO and
General Manager of Fincantieri, Pierroberto Folgiero - is
It has been a very positive year for Fincantieri, which collects the first
the fruits of our strategy and industrial vision. The return
profit, one year ahead of the forecasts of the
industrial plan, is a clear demonstration of this. In a
geopolitical context of strong discontinuities, we have
pursued an increasing focus on execution and development
leveraging our leadership in a sector with a
increasing complexity. In addition to overseeing growth
of the cruise and offshore market - added Folgiero - is
continued to focus on the international defence market
and expansion in the diving market also through two
acquisitions and a capital increase operation. Growth
of EBITDA, both in absolute terms and as a percentage, together with the
record backlog and orders acquired, testify to the discipline
and market confidence in our ability to
offer solid and innovative solutions at the same time».
