Dear Sirs and Madams,

We have the pleasure to present the fourth report entitled Polish Construction Companies 2016 – Major Players, Key Growth Drivers and Development Prospects,analysingtheconditionoffifteenlargestconstruction companies in Poland, as measured by revenues, and describing market prospects for growth.

Undoubtedly, further growth in 2015 resulted from the general upturn in the Polish economy and completion of works and projects carried out under the previous EUfinancialframework.Asinpreviousyears,largeinfrastructure projects in the road, railway and industrialconstruction sectors, in particular in the energy market, were key drivers of the industry.

Still, in 2016 the construction market saw a considerable slowdown. This results from postponing key infrastructure projects carried out under the new financialperspectiveto2017and2018.Theslowdownwill be particularly visible in the market of contracts for modernization of railroads. Undoubtedly, the major rescheduling of key investment projects will impede sector growth in 2016 and entail an accumulation of construction works in the following years.

In nominal terms, the average revenue earned by the largest construction companies abroad was PLN 173 million, down by almost PLN 22 million as compared to 2014. This means an 11% drop year-on-year. Trakcja Group,whichcontrolsABKaunoalarge

construction group operating in Lithuania and other Baltic states, generated the highest revenue abroad. It totalled PLN 487 million but was 14% lower than in 2014.Second place went to Polimex-Mostostal Group (same as in the preceding year), which reported revenue of PLN 443 million and a 15% increase vs. 2014. The Unibep Group, whose revenue totalled PLN 239 million, was third and reported a 25% drop compared to the preceding year.

This trend should reverse once projects receiving EU support in the second financialperspectivehavebeenfinalized.Itshould be emphasised, though, that large construction groups have already begun to diversify their business and invest in areas which are not directly related to construction or property development operations, such as property management, supply and installation of specialist industrial equipment or construction advisory and consulting services.

1.7. Market cap of the largest construction companies whose shares are traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange2015 was a period when the WIG Budownictwo (WIG BUD) index regained the trust of investors. The said index increased by ca. 30% year-on-year, while the main WIG index dropped by ca. 10% in 2015, compared to the end of the preceding year.

Thesharesofnineoutofthefifteenlargestconstruction companies ranked in the report were traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, which was used as the basis forthemarketcapranking.Attheendof 2015, the combined market value of nine construction companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange was PLN 8 billion and was PLN 2.4 billion higher than their combined market cap at the end of 2014. In percentage terms, the combined market cap increased by 42%.

The list of companies whose shares are traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange is topped by Budimex, whose share in the combined market cap is almost 60%. Nevertheless, even excluding Budimex, the increase in the market cap of the remaining entities was 50% year-on-year.

Atthebeginningof2016theWIGBUDindex recorded a drop caused by the limited volume of construction and assembly works in the winter season and a decrease in the volume of new building construction projects. In May 2016, there was another decrease in the index and it reached its lowest value in mid-June 2016. ThesignificantdecreaseoftheWIGBUDindex in May and June was correlated with the general stock exchange trend, driven by the information of the potential withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union-thewithdrawalwasconfirmedbythe results of the referendum which was arranged in the UK in June 2016.

from that date we observe a reversal of the short-term downturn and an increase of the WIG BUD index which, in September 2016, came close to the high levels observed in 2015.

The market value of none of the nine analysed companies decreased in 2015. Budimex, whose market cap was PLN 4,953 million (up by 37% compared to 2014), has been the unquestionable leader since 2011. The market cap of Budimex constitutes 60% of the cap value of all the analysed companies. Trakcja PRKiI was ranked second and Elektrobudowa - third (their market capitalisation was PLN 650 million and PLN 617 million, respectively).

Ascomparedwiththepreviousyear,attheendof2015therewasasignificant(42%) increase of the market cap ratio of the largest construction companies. Such a trend is consistent with the increasing revenue of the ranked companies, which was discussed above.

Basedonthefinancialdataasat30June2016, the combined capitalisation of the analysed companies fell by over 14% as compared with the end of December 2015(the decrease is 5% higher if Budimex is excluded).Asindicatedabove,inMayandJune 2016 all stock exchange indices had a considerable decrease connected with the information concerning the potential withdrawal of the United Kingdom from theEuropeanUnion,whichwasfinallyconfirmedinthereferendumofmid-June2016.

In the second half of the year, the most considerable increase in the market cap in percentage terms was reported by PBG, which resulted from an arrangement with its creditors and the closing of bankruptcy proceedings.

Inthefirsthalfof2016thecompanieslisted on the Warsaw Stock Exchange reported a slight increase (by almost 2%) in their sales revenue year-on-year. Budimex Group with revenue of PLN 2.4 billion (a rise by more than 7% increase year-on-year) was again the major player. It should be emphasised that the average operatingmarginforthefirstsixmonthsof2016 went up to 9.4% as compared to the corresponding period in 2015, when it was 7.74%.

2015 was a successful year for the largest constructioncompanies.Inthefirsthalfof2016 they managed to keep the investor's trust and their revenues even slightly exceeded the turnover obtained during a comparable period in 2015. The second half of 2016 and the following years will be crucial from a sort-term perspective. The current level of the WIG BUD shows that, despiteasignificantdeclineincontractvolume in 2016, investors still believe that there will be a positive impact from the infrastructure contract initiative, and that companies operating on the construction marketwillcontinuetobenefit.

The delay in announcing new tenders may erode this trust, because investors may decide to withdraw their capital, which in turn will result in a drop of the WIG BUD index and lower market capitalization of the analysed companies.

2.1 IntroductionThis section of the Report includes an analysisofthefactorswhichaffectthecondition of the construction industry as well as supporting data, such as bankruptcies among construction companies and employment rates in the sector. Next, key information concerning selected segments of the construction sector is presented along with an analysis of their prospects for development in the short and medium term. Finally, a summary of the current conditions and the key growth drivers in the sector are presented from the perspective of representatives of Polish construction companies.

Following a period of decline in 2012 and 2013, the construction sector in Poland saw a modest recovery in 2014 and 2015.

In 2015, the Polish construction sector grew by 2.9% at constant prices (growth at current prices amounted to 0.13%). In 2014, the sector grew by 4.9% in current prices (5.9% at constant prices). Considering delays in contract award procedures relating to large infrastructure projects supported in the new 2014-2020 EU perspective, the upward trend observed over the past two years will not be seen this year.

Theeffectsofthesaiddelayshavealreadybeen demonstrated in data published by theCentralStatisticalOffice.InAugust,production in the construction and assembly sector dropped by 20.5% (at constant prices). It also went down (by 14.9% at current prices) in the entire period fromJanuarytoAugust2016.

The latest data regarding bankruptcies in the enterprise sector also support thattrend.Afterthreeconsecutiveyearswhen construction company bankruptcies decreasedinnumber,inthefirsthalfof2016 they grew by 8% as compared with the corresponding period of 2015.

Within the next few years we can expect many changes, because the business climate in the construction industry to a large extent depends on infrastructure projects. Beginning from 2018, the planned road and railway projects will be launched and most likely, they will accumulate, which in turn may cause a price war in the sector. Piotr Janiszewski, CEO, Skanska S.A.

Delays in inviting tenders for large infrastructure projects in 2016 have had an adverseeffectonthecurrentsituationintheconstruction sector. Nevertheless, the average pay in the industry rose in early 2016. It is also anticipated that the demand for workforce will increase due to the expectation of the launch of EU supported projects.

AstheleveloffundingfromtheEUperspective is known but the project timelines are still uncertain, construction companies have refrained from investing inmodernfixedassetsorinnovativetechnology solutions.

TheinfluxoffundsfromtheEuropeanUnion will be of crucial importance to the improvement of the conditions on the infrastructure construction market in Poland in the upcoming years. The EU structural and investment funds allocated to Poland for 2014-2020 total EUR 86.6 billion, out of which EUR 0.8 billion (0.9% of the total allocated amount) had been disbursed by the European Union by May 2016. The aggregate value ofapplicationsfiledunderalltheavailableoperational programmes for 2014-2020 by July 2016 exceeded PLN 143.5 billion, including PLN 88 billion of EU support.

Representatives of the largest construction companiesseethenewEUfinancialperspective as a great opportunity but they also voice concerns over the delays in inviting tenders and completing the existing contract award procedures. Following the change in the government in October 2015, the new authorities have begun to revise the key infrastructure programmes, that is the National Road Building Programme and theNationalRailwayProgramme.Accordingto the Ministry of Infrastructure, in its current version the National Road Building Programme would require additional funds of PLN 90 billion so that all the objectives definedthereincouldbeachieved.Suchconclusions have been arrived at following theverificationofplansandcostsassumedintheNationalRoadBuildingProgramme.AtthebeginningofAugust2016,theMinistryof Infrastructure and Construction held a dialogue with road contractors, which resulted in the announcement of work on the improvement of public procurement processes. Representatives of the industry emphasized that unpredictability of the investment process was their major concern. On 2 September 2016, the Minister of Infrastructure, PKP PLK and the Directorate General for National Roads and Motorways presented the road and railway construction status and plans.

AccordingtotheMinister,thesituationin the road segment is relatively good as opposed to that in the railway segment, where tenders that should have been invited a year ago will only be invited this and next year. This was due to a lack of documentation, which should have been prepared by the former government

The housing construction segment enjoys a strong growth in the demand, which has continued uninterruptedly since 2014.In the short-term perspective this trend is expected to continue, considering that Poland has one of the lowest ratios of flatsper1,000citizensinEuropeandthat government programmes intended to support housing (such as “Flats for the Young” or the “National Housing Programme”) have been launched. In addition, part of the demand is generated by investment-oriented transactions. Low interestrates,whichsignificantlyrestrictthe

profitabilityofinvestingindeposits,alongwith the unfavourable situation on the Warsaw Stock Exchange which discourages investors result in an increased focus on real property investments. Nonetheless, in the mid-term, a slowdown in the housing construction segment can be expected inviewofthefinalizationoftheFlatsforthe Young programme in 2018 and the heightened restrictions of mortgage loan availability.

In2015,thesupplyontheofficeconstruction market was the highest on record. This is evidenced by an unprecedentedvolumeofofficespacebuilt(622,000 sq.m.). The demand increased as well and the overall lease transaction value was40%higherthanin2014.Accordingto Colliers International, over 1.5 million sq.m.ofofficespaceisbeingconstructedat present, half of which is in Warsaw. It can be expected though that - considering the high demand that can be observed now and that is planned for the future - the unrented space ratio for the major Polish markets will be going up over the next few quarters.

In the upcoming years, construction companies will, on the one hand, focus on taking advantage of the increased volume of projects(asaresultofaninfluxofEUfundsand the launch of government housing programmes), and on the other on ensuring growth in value in the long term. In order to maintain a competitive advantage after the end of the 2014-2020 EU perspective, companies continue their expansion on foreign markets, to include Western Europe, Scandinavia or the Balkans, both through exports and through development of operations in other countries. They have also been diversifying their business and developing new competences, such as modernization projects in building and facility construction or maintenance in theinfrastructuresegment.Additionally,managers have launched operational optimisation initiatives (such as headcount reduction or operational structure changes).

The aforementioned factors show that the conditions in the construction sector vary considerably by segment. The infrastructure segment, which depends on public funding and government decisions, is faced with the most problematic situation.

Aslowdowninthatsegmentmayleadtoanend of the upward trend observed in the construction sector for the past two years. The sector companies will have to make it through the temporary delays in the major infrastructure projects, which are caused by the launch of the 2014-2020 EU perspective and revision of the existing road and railway programmes. In this chapter we attempt to sum up the opportunities that are now available, indicate the key growth drivers and prospects for development.

AsthePolishconstructionmarket is expected to shrink after the end of the current EU perspective, Polish construction companies should consider international expansion now.Leszek Gołąbiecki - Chairman of the Management Board, Unibep S.A.

2.2. Key growth drivers for the construction market in PolandIn the upcoming years, the condition of the construction sector will be determined mainly by such factors as the macroeconomic situation in Poland (primarily, its economic growth) and the use of the funds allocated to infrastructure investments in the 2014-2020 EU perspective, which will depend on the possibilities of subsidizing infrastructure projects limited by the criterion of the public debt level.

Economic growthIn 2015, the compound average growth rate in Poland was 3.6%. The growth was fuelled mainly by household consumption and a rise in exports that was attributable to improved competitiveness of Polish goods (primarily owing to depreciation of the Polish currency relative to the euro and U.S. dollar).

Early 2016 saw a slowdown in the growth rate to 2.6% (January - March) as compared to a rate of 3.8% in the corresponding period in the preceding year. Initial estimatesbytheCentralStatisticalOfficeshow that in Q2 2016 GDP went up by 3% year-on-year vs. 3.2% a year before. The slowdown results mainly from a decline in infrastructure investment accompanied by a drop in government spending in relation to the EU funding cycle. The government's forecasts as to the planned 3.8% growth were updated in the second half of Augustto3.5%.However,consideringthe decline in infrastructure investment and the uncertainty resulting from the announcementofBrexit,itmaybedifficultto reach GDP growth even at the reduced level.

Government debtThe level of government debt largely determines the possibilities of the State and local governments to support infrastructure projects.Attheendof2015,thegovernmentdebt-to-GDPratiowas48.4%.Accordingto the government debt management strategy for 2016-2019, as proposed by the Minister of Finance, in 2015 and 2016 the government debt-to-GDP ratio will rise to 49.0% but it will gradually decrease to 47.5% in 2019.

EU fundsTheinfluxoffundsfromtheEuropeanUnioninthe2014-2020financialperspectiveisa key growth driver for the construction market, especially in the infrastructure sector. The total funds allocated to Poland under the cohesion policy is EUR 82.5 billion, including EUR 45.6 billion earmarked for grants under National Operational Programmes. Detailed allocation of funds to each Operational and National Programme was presented in the previous edition of the Report.

Funds for infrastructure projects are derived mainly from the Eastern Poland programme and the Infrastructure and Environment programme. The Eastern Poland Operational Programme covers infrastructure projects on two priority axes, namely the Modern Transport Infrastructure and the Supra-Regional Railway Infrastructure.

In 2015, no grant applications and no contracts were signed under the 2014 - 2020 perspective. Likewise, no applications for payments linked with infrastructure projects were settled under the program by the end of 2015.

Under the Infrastructure and Environment OperationalProgramme(POIiŚ)2014-2020,grant agreements totalling EUR 615.7 million had been signed by the end of 2015 in relation to railway infrastructure projects (core network, comprehensive network and other railways) and EUR 1.9 billion for roads and motorways (the total value of grant agreements signed under the programme as a whole was EUR 2.5 billion out of EUR 14.6 billion available).

The recent decision of the UK to leave the European Union may reduce the available EU funds. Needless to say, withdrawal from the EU is a lengthy process, which will probably take several years. However, the United Kingdom is one of the largest net payers to the EU budget. Consequently, its secession may lead to a reduction in the number of investment projects and introductionofmorestringentfinancingcriteria.

Based on the economic factors and theexpectedinfluxofEUfundswemay conclude that the prospects for the construction sector are good. The statistical data concerning bankruptcy and employment(discussedbelow)wellreflectthe current situation in the sector and its prospects for the nearest future. In addition, section 2.6 of our report presents our forecast regarding the market situation from the perspective of companies, PKP PLK and the Directorate General for National Roads and Motorways.

2.3. Bankruptcies in the construction sector Inthefirsthalfof2016,thenumberofbankruptcies in the construction sector increased by 8% year-on-year, which was a consequence of a temporary lack of contracts. However, this does not fully reflecttheconditionofconstructioncompanies. The real drop in construction investment is almost twice as high as the increase in the number of bankruptcies in absolute terms. Companies expect that the situation will improve once infrastructure projects have been launched in the new EU perspective.

The majority of entities going bankrupt are those operating in the road and water supply system infrastructure segment, while the number of bankruptcies in the housing constructionsegmentisdefinitelylower.Atpresent, the condition of companies in the housing construction segment is considered good.Asthesupplyhasagoodcorrelationwith the demand, the problem of unsold projects has disappeared. However, the medium-term outlook is less optimistic as banks are planning to reduce the number of new loans (increased pressure to match the asset and liability portfolios and the

Aseriouschallenge,fromtheperspectiveofbothinvestors and general contractors, is to understand the changes to the Public Procurement law, namely the 40% non-price criterion. Indisputably, it is the right direction that will favour companies focused on social responsibility, innovation, security and sustainability.Piotr Janiszewski, CEO, Skanska S.A.

necessity to implement more stringent credit analysis criteria).

The social tenement housing programme proposed by the government may have an impact on the market in the longer term. The major threat for companies operating in the infrastructure segment is delays in contract award procedures as well as an uncertainty as to the pricing of construction materials in the case of project accumulation.

2.4. Employment in the construction sectorInthefirsthalfof2016,thenumberofemployees in the construction sector ceasedtofallforthefirsttimesince2012.AccordingtothePolishCentralStatisticalOffice,inthefirsthalfof2016,the average number of employees increased by 0.2% as compared to the corresponding period in the preceding year, although a drop by 0.3% YoY was seen inthefirstquarter.In2015,theaveragenumber of employees was 387,600, which means a 5,8% drop (in 2013 an 8.6% decrease was reported, followed by a 7.6% decline in 2014).

With a decelerating downward trend in employment in the construction sector, the average gross monthly pay in 2015 was PLN 4,076.47, up by 4.9% year-on-year.

Inthefirsthalfof2016theaveragepaywas PLN 4,169.37 (i.e. 2.3% more than in 2015). Considering that over the past three yearstheaveragepayinthefirsthalfoftheyear was ca. 2% lower than the average annual pay, a further increase in pay may be expected in the construction sector in 2016 as a whole.

Employment outlookThe latest report entitled “Manpower Employment Outlook Barometer” presents the employment outlook for the economy for Q4 2016.1 The data contained in the report shows that employers in Poland are clearly optimistic about the future. The net employment outlook is positive for nine out of ten sectors surveyed. In Q4, 15% of the respondents are planning to increase the number of their employees, 75% declare that no changes will be made in this regard and 7% expect a headcount reduction. Optimism prevails also among employers in the construction sector. The net employment outlook for the analysed period is +13%, which translates into a 2 p.p. rise year-on-year.

This means that 13% more companies expect that the number of their employees will increase as opposed to fall. Before the seasonal update, the net employment outlook is +12%. Considering a large number of projects to be implemented within the next 6-7 years with the support of the European Union, the number of employees in the infrastructure segment may be expected to rise over the years 2014 - 2020.

Hays forecasts that the employment rate will increase mainly in the road and railway infrastructure segments and candidates for the position of site manager, contract manager and industry manager will be most frequently searched for in 2016 by general contractors.

1 The “net employment outlook” in the "Manpower Employment Outlook Barometer" is a percentage difference between the number of employers anticipating an increase in the total number of employees and the number of employers expecting a fall in the total number of employees in their branch in the nearest quarter.

2.5. Development prospects for construction market segments in PolandIn 2015, the structure of construction and assembly production was similar to that reported in the preceding year. Aslightincrease was observed in infrastructure construction (from 38.2% to 38.6%) and in specialist construction (from 33.5% to 34.0%), tothebenefitofworksrelatingtotheerectionof buildings.

In 2015, the Polish construction sector grew by 2.9% at constant prices (growth at current prices amounted to 0.13%). AccordingtoreviseddatapublishedbytheCentralStatisticalOffice,thegrowthratewas considerably higher a year before, when it reached 4.9% at current prices (5.9% at constant prices). The2016figuresreflectaslowdown resulting from the suspension of contract award procedures and delays in infrastructureinvestments.AccordingtotheCentralStatisticalOffice,constructionandassembly production dropped by 20.5% in Augustvs.July2015,andbetweenJanuaryandAugustthedecreasewas14.9%(atconstant prices). Considering the anticipated acceleration of infrastructure projects due to the necessity to implement government programmes and use EU funds, the construction market value may be expected to increase in the upcoming years. However, as the completion of contract award procedures and the selection of contractors will take more time and, due to the fact that a number of road and railway projects are carried out in the design-build formula, market growth will probably be seen only in 2018.

Despite a drop in production in the construction segment, the "WIG Budownictwo" index has been rising steadily since February 2016, after a period of slight decline in the winter, which may be attributable to an expected increase in the number of contracts on the market. Taking account of the expected increase of employment levels in the construction industry, it may be concluded that the market expects more orders in the infrastructure sector and continued optimism in the housing construction segment.

2.5.1. Road constructionIn the road construction sector, 2015 was a period of transition between the 2007-2013 perspective and the new EU 2014-2020 perspective. Prior perspective projects were being completed and new perspective projects were being planned and prepared at the same time. Investments supported by the EU in the 2014-2020 perspective will be realized in accordance with the National Road Building Programme for 2014-2023 (with projections by 2025) (the “NRBP”), set by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Development in September 2015. Detailed assumptions underlying the programme were presented in the previous edition of the Report.

In 2015, funds totalling PLN 11.5 billion, derived from all the available sources, were spent on road projects. In 2015, the road project spending from the National Road Fund itself went down as compared to the preceding year (PLN 8.4 billion in 2015 vs. PLN 12.8 billion in 2014), which represents a drop of 34%.1 In 2015, 24.7 kilometres of expressways and motorways were made available for use and 61.8 kilometres of national roads were rebuilt. This is slightly less than planned in the NRBP (36.0 and 66.4 kilometres, respectively).

Changes made to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Construction after the establishment of a new government in 2015 have had an impact on the implementation of the road building programme. The NRBPwasrevised,specificallyintermsofitsfinancialassumptions.Initially,PLN107billion was to be secured under the NRBP tofulfilthetasksplanned.Currently,theMinistry of Infrastructure and Construction estimates that PLN 198 billion will be necessary for that purpose2. It has not been decided yet whether additional funds will besecuredtofulfilallthetasksandtheNRBP will be updated or whether the list ofinvestmentswillbeverifiedintermsofpriority and precedence.

New contract award procedures were suspendedfortheNRBPverificationperiodand resumed after the announcement of the "Road and Railway Investment Initiative" by the Ministry of Infrastructure andConstructionon2September.Aninvestment budget of more than PLN 4 bn was opened in September with 14 invitations to tender. Other tender proceedings worth PLN 8 billion will be announced by the end of the year. Following the execution of these contracts the total value of works would reach PLN 60-65 billion, i.e. 60% of the planned amount.

Althoughtheresumptionofroadinvestments is a positive sign, it is still questionable whether funds necessary to implement the programme in the upcoming years will be secured, in particular if the total expenditure were to increase to PLN 198 million. In July, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Construction announced that the debt of the National Road Fund exceeded PLN 40 billion (ca. PLN 60 billion along with interest).

Before the announcement of the "Initiative", in the new EU perspective under the Infrastructure and Environment Operational Programme 2014-2020, the Directorate General for National Roads and Motorways signed an agreement whereby funding would be received for 23 projects totalling PLN 30.9 bn (funding of PLN 13.2 bn) – to be carried out in the years 2015-2020.

The technical condition of roads, which deteriorated both in 2014 and 2015 despite considerable investment, is a major problem forroadinfrastructureinPoland.Attheendof 2015, 14.1% of roads were considered “in poor condition” (as compared to 13.2% at the end of 2014) and 25.3% were regarded as “unsatisfactory” (vs. 25.1% in 2014). AccordingtotheReportontheTechnicalCondition of National Roads as at the end of 2015, prepared by the Directorate General for National Roads and Motorways, the followingfactorsaffectedthedeteriorationofthetechnicalconditionofnationalroads:

• insufficientfundsconsideringtheidentifiedrepairneeds;

• adverse weather conditions – exceptionally low temperatures in winter andhighinsummer;

• changes to the road condition assessment methodology – a longer list of parameters and the application of innovativemeasurementtechniques;

• a smaller increase in the length of new roads (in good technical condition) in 2015 as compared to 2014.

• national road condition by region (as at the end of 2015).

The Dangerous Road Section Management Programme (the "DRSMP") was launched earlier this year with a view to improving the condition of the existing national roads. Thetasksdefinedintheprogrammearemainly aimed at improving the safety of unprotectedtrafficparticipants.In2016,atotalof292tasksaretobefulfilled,forwhich the amount of PLN 300 million has been allocated.

Local government road networkIn addition to national roads (including expressways and motorways), the Polish public road network consists of local government (regional, district and municipal) roads.

The Ministry of Infrastructure and Development supports local government road investments as part of the general subvention fund and the "Municipal and District Road Development Programme" for 2016-2019.

The general subvention fund dates back to 1999 and is created annually in the governmentbudgetundertheActonLocal Government Unit Income. In 2016, PLN 336 million was allocated as part of the general subvention to support local government road investments, with more than half earmarked for four regions, namelyMazowsze,Pomorze,ŚląskandWielkopolska. The fund will account for 50%ofthetaskvalue.Allocationoffundsto each task has been presented on the website of the Ministry of Infrastructure andConstruction:http://mib.gov.pl/2-Rezerwasubwencjiogolnej.htm.

The aggregate value of tasks to be supported under the Municipal and District Road Infrastructure Programme for 2016-2019 is PLN 4 billion. The list (based on priority) includes 418 projects relating to district and 938 to municipal roads. Every year ca. 2,200 km of district and municipal roads may be built, rebuilt or repaired under theprogramme.AccordingtotheSupremeChamber of Control, the condition of 36% of district and municipal roads is poor as compared to only 29% whose condition is considered good or satisfactory3. Due to the fact that the current technical condition of municipal and district roads is unsatisfactory and that the local road infrastructure will not receive any considerable support in the 2014-2020, EU perspective4, the necessary funds must be provided by the State.

2.5.2. Railway Construction The scope of railway construction projects includes the modernization and development of railway and tram infrastructure. In Poland, 19,300 kilometres of railways are used at present, out of which ca. 96% are administeredbyPKPPLKS.A.Thetechnicalcondition of the railway infrastructure is unsatisfactory. However, it has been improving steadily since 2010. The condition of 52% of the railways administered by PKP PLK is considered good, 27% satisfactory and 21% unsatisfactory.

The railway investment framework hasbeendefinedintwodocuments,namelytheMulti-AnnualRailwaySectorInvestmentProgramme by 2015 (with projections by2020), which was adopted under a resolution on13March2015,the"MARSIP",andtheNational Railway Programme by 2023,dated 15 September 2015 (the “NRP”),whichcontinuestheMARSIP.Theunderlyingassumptions were presented in the previousedition of the Report.

In 2015, projects of PLN 7.2 billion5 were completedundertheMARSIPvs.PLN9.0billion planned. This shows that the plan for 2015 was 80% implemented in terms of spending but the stage of completion of the construction works was 90%, which is partly attributable to cost savings realized in contract award procedures.

Currently,theNRPisbeingupdated.Asatthe date of this Report, the latest version of the draft programme was published on 11 July 2016. The time limit for the expression of opinions on the draft programme in a social consultation process expired on 2 September. The programme is being updated primarily with a view to making theinvestmentplansmoreflexible.Theypreviously assumed that 50% of the contract award procedures planned for a 6-year period would be completed in 2019 and 2020.

5 In 2015, the total expenditure met using individual sources of funding was PLN 7.2 billion, whereas the expenses paid by PKP PLK to contractors amounted to PLN 7.7 billion. The difference of ca. PLN 0.5 billion is a refund, which will be transferred to the accounts of PKP PLK in 2016, once it has been verified by the Centre for the EU Transport Projects.

The objective is to avoidparalysisoftherailwaytrafficandaccumulation of investments in 2019 and 2020 which could lead to delays, highercostsandfinancialproblemsofthecontractors, as it did in the case of road building projects.

By the end of September, tenders had been invited for projects with an aggregate value of PLN 18.8 billion (total investments under the NRP estimated at PLN 66 billion). PKP PLK has announced that further tenders will be invited by the end of 2016 with respect to projects of PLN 6.5 billion. In 2017, investments of PLN 5.5 billion in total are to be realized (the additional PLN 1.5 billion will be spent on purchases of materials and works performed by PKP PLK itself) and tenders will be invited for projects of ca. PLN 5.0 billion.

In addition to the volume and value of investmentsfinancedbytheStateandEU funds, the condition of the railway construction sector is also determined by thelocalgovernmentactivityinthefieldofrepair and improvement of suburban rail. Suchprojectsarefinancedbygrants-in-aidand the Railway Fund. The annual funding limit for 2016-2019 is PLN 110 million.

The scope of municipal investment plans also includes the construction and repair of tram lines. In the new EU perspective, up to PLN 13 billion may be spent on the development of tram transport (infrastructure and rolling stock). It may be estimated that about a half of that amount will be spent on infrastructure. However, thelatestMulti-AnnualFinancialPlansforthefivelargestcitiesassumerailwayinfrastructure spending of PLN 1.5 billion by 2020.

2.5.3. Energy construciton6 Poland has large-scale power industry investmentplans.AccordingtotheEnergyRegulatoryOfficepowercompaniesareplanning to make (in aggregate) almost 16 GW of new capacity available between 2016 and 2028, the major part of which will be by the end of 2020. The total capital expenditure on new capacity, planned for 2014-2028, is estimated at PLN 55 billion. Wind farms were to account for the major part of the new investments. However, in the context of the legal changes being introduced, the investment plans will have to be revised. The Wind Farm Investment ActpublishedinJuly2016introducedmajorchanges to the wind power industry.

Somepowercompanieshadtowriteoffinvestment projects previously planned. Additionally,in2017changeswillbemade to the taxation of property where wind farms are located. Under the new act, property tax will apply not only to the structure (foundation and tower) but also to the technical components, which account for ca. 70% of the total wind farm value, and this will further reduce the return onsuchinvestments.However,thefinalconsequences of the legal changes may not be determined at present, as new draft amendments to the act were prepared in September with a view to reducing the negativeeffectsofsuchmodificationstoaminimum.

6 The national power industry investment plans discussed in the previous edition of the Report have not changed.

two nuclear power plants with a total capacity of approx. 6000 MW net (4-8 nuclearpowerunits).Atpresent,theMinistry of Energy is working on a programme for the construction of the firstnuclearpowerunitwithacapacityofca. 1000 MW, to be built within the next decade.Accordingtotheindustry,theconstruction of nuclear power plants in Poland is not certain. The visions of the ministries of development and energy concerning the future of the power industry differandnuclearpowerplantinvestmentrequires massive expenditure.

There are new investment plans for the renewable energy sector in Poland, too. AccordingtotheEnergyRegulatoryOffice,the installed capacity in the renewable energy sector is 82 GW (as at 30 June 2016). The Institute for Renewable Energy forecasts investments in new renewable energy sources of 15 GW (electricity) and of 9GW(heat).AccordingtotheEnergyMarketAgency,theshareofrenewableenergyinPoland should account for about 19% in 2030.8

2.5.4. Environmental protection Funds allocated under the Infrastructure and Environment Operational Programme 2014-2020 to investments in water and sewage management and in waste management total EUR 1.62 billion and EUR 0.93 billion, respectively. They will enable Poland to continue its investment programme aimed at bringing the Polish infrastructure into line with the parameters definedbytheEuropeanUnion.

Water and sewage management Investmentsplannedinthefieldofwater and sewage management have beendefinedinthe“MasterPlanforthe implementation of Council Directive 91/271/EEC” (the “Master Plan”) and the “National Programme for Municipal Sewage Treatment” (the “NPMST”). In May 2016, an "Update to the Master Plan" was approved by the Ministry of Environment. Currently, the fourth version of the NPMST dated 21 April2016isinforce.AtthebeginningofSeptember,workonthefifthversionoftheNPMST began, to be completed in March 2017.

Accordingtothelatestversion,thetotal estimated value of the projects implemented under the NPMST for 2015 is PLN 6 billion and the total estimated expenditure along with the amount to be spent in 2016 is PLN 23 billion, where almost PLN 17.5 billion is to be spent by the end of 2020.

In 2015, 4,862 kilometres of sewage pipes were built and 698 kilometres modernized. Asaresult,thenumberofpeopleusingsewage management services increased by ca. 606,000.

The fourth version assumes that investments will be realized in 824 treatment plants, that 16,918 kilometres of new sewage pipes will be built and a further 3,505 kilometres modernized. Asaresult,thenumberofpeopleusingsewage management services following the development and modernization of the network will increase by ca. 1.8 million.

Waste managementTheinvestmentsplannedinthefieldofwastemanagementhavebeendefinedmainly in the National Waste Management Plan 2022 (the “NWMP”). The resolution to introduce the new plan was adopted on1July2016andissuedon11August2016.Theobjectivesandtasksdefinedinthe document concern the years 2016-2022 and the years 2023-2030 in the long term. The key objective of the NWMP is to avoid waste production and to use

waste as a resource. The said objective is consistentwiththemeasuresdefinedintheInfrastructure and Environment Operational Programme with respect to municipal waste management. The planned investment projects support the plan assumptions that 50% of municipal waste should be recycled by 2020 (60% by 2025) and no more than 30% of such waste ought to be incinerated.

In the 2014-2020 perspective, funds of EUR 0.93 billion have been allocated to municipal waste management under the Infrastructure and Environment Operational Programme.

2.5.5. Construction in the commercial and service sectorIn 2015, the commercial space market in Poland increased by almost 650,000 sq.m. Ahighersupplywasobservedinthesecondhalf of the year, when almost two-thirds of new commercial space was made available for use. Shopping centres accounted for ca. 550,000 sq.m. and commercial warehouses represented98,000sq.m.Attheendofthefirsthalfof2016,morethan13.5millionsq.m. of modern commercial space was available in Poland.

In 2015, 23 new commercial and service facilities were opened, the largest being "ZieloneArkady"inBydgoszcz(51,000sq.m.),"Sukcesja"inŁódz(46,000sq.m.)and"Tarasy Zamkowe" in Lublin (38,000 sq.m.).

Development of existing shopping centres accounted for more than 25% of commercial space made available for use in 2015. Fifteen facilities were extended, including"CentrumBielany"inWrocław(additional 35,000 sq.m. built), which thus became the largest shopping centre in Poland with a total area of 145,000 sq.m.

In 2015, the vacancy rate on mature markets in the eight largest cities was 2.9% on average vs. 4.0% in regional cities. The lowest rate was recorded in Warsaw, WrocławandLublin(1.5%)andthehighestinBydgoszcz,RadomandToruń(6.0%,5.7%and 5.2%, respectively).

Currently, almost 700,000 sq.m. of commercial space is being built, out of which 450,000 sq.m. is planned to be made available for use in 2016.

Nonetheless, the outlook for commercial space construction companies is uncertain due to the changes in the Polish legal system and the political and economic climate in Europe. On 14 June 2016 the PolishgovernmentratifiedthefinalversionoftheActontradetaxanditisestimatedthat approx. 100 major commercial networks operating in Poland will become liable to that levy.

2.4.6. Housing constructionThe outlook for housing construction companies remains positive. The ratio of flatsper1,000citizensinPolandislowerthan in other European countries. This means a potential for further growth and an opportunity for entities active on the Polish housing construction market.

In 2015, both the demand and supply on the residential property market were strong.Notonlydidthenumberofflatssoldincreasebutthenumberofnewflatsmadeavailable on the market went up as well. AccordingtoREAS,51,800flatsweresoldin 2015 (vs. 43,000 in 2014), while 51,900 were made available for sale (as compared to47,500in2014).Thefirsthalfof2016wasalso exceptionally good in this regard. The numberofflatssoldwas29,400andflatsmade available for sale was 31,400, which was a 21% and 28% rise, respectively, as comparedtothefirsthalfof2015.

Factors affecting the demand on the housing construction marketIn 2015, the favourable conditions on the housing construction market were additionally sustained by government programmessupportingflatpurchasesandthe vision of more stringent requirements for home loans.

AccordingtotheNationalBankofPolandreport entitled "The Loan Market in Q3 2016", published in July 2016, banks imposed stricter criteria for granting home loans in Q2 2016 and announced the establishment of more demanding requirements with respect to collateral pledged by borrowers, as a result of which a drop in the demand is expected. However, in2015andinthefirsthalfof2016,thedemand was still considerable and at the end of Q1 2016 the overall number of active mortgage agreements administered by the Polish banking sector exceeded 2 million for thefirsttime.

One of the factors fuelling the demand for home loans was the continuation of the "Flats for the Young" programme for 2014- 2018. The fact that the programme is limited in time and the borrowers' concerns that the funds allocated to subsidies under the "Flats for the Young" programme9 for 2017 will soon be used up contributes to good conditions on the housing market.

It should also be emphasized that currently the provisions of the National Housing Programme are being drafted. The programmeisalsoaimedatfacilitatingflatpurchases. It provides for the establishment of the National Housing Fund, which will enable the construction of tenement houses that may later be purchased at attractive prices, without the use of State funds. The land to be used for construction purposes, to secure funds for projects implemented in other locations or for the provision of financialsupport,ismainlyState-ownedproperty.

9 Under the applicable regulations, where the down-payment may not be partially covered in 2016, an application may be filed with the planned subsidy payment date in 2017.

The objective of the programme is to increasethesupplyofflatsandtheiravailability and to lower rents for individuals whocannotaffordtheirownflatorfailtosatisfy the loan granting criteria.

Under the programme, the spending on social tenement houses should reach PLN 157.2 million and PLN 12.8 million in 2017 and 2018, respectively, and PLN 4,730.4 millionbetween2019and2025.Atotalofalmost200,000flatsareplannedtobebuilt(7,000 in 2017, 13,000 in 2018 and 179,000 between 2019 and 2025).

One of the objectives of the National Housing Programme is to catch up with the averagenumberofflatsper1,000citizensinthe European Union. It is estimated that this willrequiretheconstructionof2millionflatsin Poland by 2030.

Asinthepastyear,theattractivenessofinvestmentsinflatsforrentwasamajorfactorinfluencingthepurchaseofflatsinthe context of an uncertain outlook for the Warsaw Stock Exchange. On the one hand, it is expected that foreign investors may return to the Warsaw Stock Exchange followinganoutflowofinvestments,butonthe other, the possibility that open-ended pension funds will be done away with, the fact that opinions about Poland are not particularly favourable on foreign markets and that the number of IPOs is decreasing have considerably weakened the position of the Warsaw Stock Exchange over the past few years. The future of the Warsaw Stock Exchange will depend on the economic conditions in Poland and abroad, which may not be determined at present.

The demandontheofficeconstructionmarketwas very high last year as well. The overall lease transaction value was 40% higher than in the preceding year.

Nonetheless, it needs to be emphasised thatthesituationontheofficeconstructionmarket may deteriorate over the next fewquarters.Accesstoforeignfunding(duetolowinterestratesofferedindeveloped countries), which contributed to the increase of the available space, may become restricted in the months to come. In addition, considering the anticipated high supply, it is to be expected that the unrented space ratio will go up in the largest Polish cities.

2.5.8. Warehouse constructionThe warehouse construction market grew considerably both in 2015 and in Q1 2016.AttheendofMarch2016,Polandhada total of 10.3 million sq.m. of modern warehouse space. Growing demand makes the market outlook even more optimistic. The transactions entered into in Q1 2016 involved 637,000 sq.m. of warehouse space, which means an 8% (45,000 sq.m.) increase year-on-year. The rise in the demand was accompanied by the increasing supply of warehouse space. Only in Q1 2016, the warehouse space resources increased by 447,000 sq.m., which represented almost a half of the supply recorded in 2015 as a whole.Additionally,thefactthatthevacancyrate has again gone down shows that the supply has a good correlation with the demand.AttheendofQ12016,thevacancyrate was 5.9% of the existing resources, i.e. ca. 0.9 p.p. less than in the corresponding period of the preceding year.

2.6. Market perspective Construction industry companies emphasise that 2016 seems more challenging than expected due to delays in the performance ofEUco-financedprojects.Theestimatedrevenue of entities in the infrastructure construction sector in 2016 are 50% lower than expected.

The future of the energy construction industry will depend on political decisions on supporting selected sources of energy.Accordingtocontractors,simultaneousperformance of three or four large projects proves disadvantageous due to the lack ofaqualifiedworkforce.Followingthecompletion of a considerable number of contracts in 2019, considerable oversupply of workers is expected.Energyprojectsalsodifferinmarginsgenerated by technology providers and construction companies, with the former reporting much better performance. It is not certain, though, if this trend will continue in the long run.

The situation in the general construction segment is considerably better, but the continued growth of supply depends on furtherinflowofforeigncapital,whichmayslow down over the next few months. Atpresentthecommercialmarketreportsgrowth. Contractors have recognized the potential of modernizing old shopping malls andofficesandthedemandforcommercialandofficespaceintownsandsmallercities. The public sector is also expected to increase the demand for general construction works in the healthcare and defence sectors.

The residential construction market has seen a rapid growth. Market players mention the investment boom resulting from the expected termination of the Flat for the Young mortgage subsidy programme and limited access to mortgage loans. Property companies do not believe that the Flat Plus Programme following the government's social support policy, willconsiderablyaffecttheresidentialconstruction market. This is because the flatsundertheprogrammewillmainlybe provided to individuals with low creditworthiness. From the viewpoint of construction companies, under this assumption, the Programme should entail many new projects.

Despite delays in infrastructure projects, theexpectedmarginpressureandfiercecompetition in tenders, EU funds will still drive investments in the coming years. Contractors, however, are fully aware that new strategies should be implemented now to ensure growth beyond 2020.

The supply gap in infrastructure construction in 2016 results from the transition period in EUco-financedprojectsandamendmentsto the public procurement law. Still, the shift ismoresignificantthananticipatedfollowingthe change of government in 2015 and the suspension of public tender proceedings during investment programme reviews.

The analysis of government programmes carried out by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Construction has shown a ca. PLN 90 billion underestimation of outlays on road construction and substantial delays in railway projects. The shortfall for road projects will be difficulttofind,consideringtheNationalRoadFund already had PLN 60 billion of debt. It has not been decided yet if additional funds (andhowmuch)willbeallocatedtofinanceall projects planned or if the projects will be reprioritized and rescheduled.

In our opinion, much weight in the tendering procedure should to be attached to the quality criterion. Ideally, the price criterion weight should not exceed 40 percent, andthenon-pricecriteriashouldtakeonaddedsignificance.AtthemeetingsofInvestment Forum working groups, working hand in hand with contractors, we have prepared a list of non-price criteria.

Rejecting the lowest and the highest price bids also seems a reasonable approach in tenderassessment.Anotherideawhichisworthconsideringinthefutureistoextendthe scope of the contract with the contractor to include maintenance services, e.g. for a period of 10 years after putting the infrastructure into operation.

We have reviewed our investment projects and updated the schedules to prevent project accumulation in the coming years. In the last quarter of the year we intend to call for tenders with a total value of PLN 6.5 billion under the new EU perspective.

AccordingtotheDirectorateGeneralforNational Roads and Motorways all public procurement projects are carried out in line withtheschedule.Aninvestmentbudgetof more than PLN 4 billion was opened in September with 14 invitations to tender. Other tender proceedings worth PLN 8 billion will be announced by the end of the year.Following the execution of these contracts the total value of works would reach PLN 60-65 billion, i.e. more than 60% of the planned amount. The legislators are currently working on making the soft tender appraisal criteria more detailed, but the tenders announced so far are conducted in line with the regulations binding so far, which primarily rely on the price.

AccordingtotheDirectorateGeneralforNational Roads and Motorways, no problems with tenders for road projects are expected, even if additional State budget funds are allocated to increase capital expenditure spent under the NRBP.

The situation in the railway construction sector is more complicated, though. Tenders are announced with 12 month delays, which implies that most investment projects may be carried out during the last years of the EU 2014-2020 perspective, considering the duration of the tendering processes and the designing stage. Sector participants emphasise that due to the accumulation of investment projects a considerable number of railroad sections may be closed at the sametime,disruptingrailtraffic.

They also claim that there is a serious threat that PKP PLK will not be able to consume all allocatedfunds.AccordingtotheProKolejFoundation, PKP PLK considers carrying out alternative projects involving special purpose vehicles and using the funds to construct railway stations and railway sidings. Construction companies claim, however, that this would imply shifting the burden of contribution from central to local administration.

AccordingtoPKPPLKthereviewoftheplanned investment projects and their timeframe will make fund allocation more realistic in the coming years and prevent closing all railway lines in a given direction at the same time. Moreover, if purchases of materialsandtheirfinancingareplannedin advance, some problems with their transportation when lines are closed and the pricegrowtheffectscanbeavoided.

The winning bid prices have been decreasing, which is perceived as a negative trend. Two years ago the winning bid price comprised ca. 70% of the investment budget, while in 2015 the share dropped to 60% and in 2016 - to 50%.Accordingtoconstructioncompanyleaders, although the railway investment initiative announced by the Ministry and PKP PLK encouraged companies to purchase equipmentandemploynewstaff,noinvestment boom occurred.

Apartfromthestrongpricepressure,increased competition has also been observed in tenders. Recently, the number of bidders has increased twice, and the group also includes companies from Western Europe (for instance from Portugal, Spain, ItalyandAustria),whichdidnotoperateonthe Polish market in previous years.

Polish construction companies, however, positively assess expected changes in tender proceedings. The key change is limiting the price criterion weight to a maximum of 60%. Expertsemphasise,however,thatthefinaloutcome will depend on what other non-price criteria are applied. They also suggest that rejecting the lowest price bid could prevent spoiling the market. Moreover, they mention the Scandinavian model, where the selection of the winning bidder is based on theeconomicbenefitsproducedbytheofferpresented. The category includes factors such as supply period, payment terms, supply terms, social and environmental impact, and quality. Market participants, however, indicatethatnon-pricecriteriaaredifficulttomeasure, they require advanced knowledge and experience. What is more, such criteria are generally avoided by authorities in fear of alleged corruption.

ApositivechangewasappointingtheCouncilof Experts on Road Construction by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Construction. The Council is composed of contractors, clients and non-government organizations. The key responsibility of the Council of Experts is to draw up contract templates, develop guidelines on preparing descriptions of the object of the contract and guidelines on tender proceedings.

Still, a discussion on contract award procedures has started among clients and contractors. It is a positive trend, as the dialogue may lead to developing solutions beneficialtothemarket.Grzegorz Grabowski, Chairman of the Management Board of Torpol S.A.

AccordingtotheDirectorateGeneral,forNational Roads and Motorways non-price criteria should focus on the quality of works, and the warranty period should no longer constitute a selection criterion, but become a requirement. Moreover, the requirement to use your own human resources is considered a good idea. The Directorate General for National Roads and Motorways emphasises that, in response to the needs of contractors, beginning from autumn 2013(underthenewfinancialperspective2014 - 2023) contracts ensure contract price adjustment using rates published by the CentralStatisticalOffice(withthecapof1%of the contract value).

Railway construction issues are discussed by PKP PLK and contractors at working group meetings of the Investment Forum. One of the items on the agenda are tender conditions. The list of possible soft (non-price) criteria as part of tender assessment has already been discussed.

AccordingtoPKPPLKthetargetpricecriterion weight could equal 40% in procedures related to services linked with the investment process (especially the engineer, pre-investment documentation, and project documentation). Other proposed changes which are positively assessed are the introduction of advance payments,andfinancingpurchasesofmaterials. The maximum warranty period required by PKP PLK will be 6 years. This

changeisamoreeffectivesolutionthana ten year warranty period, which made contractors promise the maximum warranty period, as the price still remained the decisivecriterion.AccordingtoPKPPLKan interesting solution, which would be worth considering, would be a ten-year contractual maintenance period managed by the contractor after putting the railway infrastructure into operation. PKP PLK also agrees with the idea of rejecting bids with the lowest and the highest price. Learning from the experience of projects co-financedwithEUfundsfromthepreviousperspective, companies carried out a number of modernisation and investment initiatives aimed at mitigating operational risk,revenuediversification,increasingefficiencyandflexibility,whichareessentialin the changing market environment. Some companies have started optimizing processes and organizational structures and follow downsizing strategies. Still, it has not resulted in a sector headcount reduction.AccordingtothedataoftheCentralStatisticalOffice,inthefirsthalfof2016, the average headcount increased slightly (by 0.2% YoY). Moreover, companies havediversifiedtheirportfoliosintermsof operations and region. Companies gain new competencies, such as the increasingly popular construction of buildings (commercialandofficespace),realestateadministration or "green construction".

Anumberofcompaniesgetinvolvedinsmaller projects, i.e. the construction of local roads or the development of buildings in smaller cities and towns.

Many entities follow geographical diversificationstrategiesbasedongrowingexports, mergers and acquisitions and establishing foreign branches. Companies focus on Scandinavia, Germany, the Baltic States and the Balkans, although Balkan investment projects involve increased political risks and challenges related to economic volatility.

For the Directorate General for National Roads and Motorways, the possible increase in expenditure in the next few years will not cause any organizational problems related to processing additional tendering procedures.

Tendering procedures are performed as planned. In September 2016, contractors were invited to tenders with an aggregate value exceeding PLN 4 billion (according to investment budgets). By the end of the year, we are planning to invite contractors to tenders for another PLN 8 billion.

The warranty period will no longer constitute a selection criterion. Non-price criteria should focus on quality.Iwona Stępień – Pilipczuk - Deputy General Director, Directorate General for National Roads and Motorways

2.7. Summary2015 was a year of stagnation for the construction sector. Production in the construction sector went up by a symbolic 0.13%.Amajortrendobservedin2016is a drop in the number of contracts in the infrastructure segment, which is the consequence of the end of the 2007-2013 EU perspective and delays in the implementation of government projects that willreceivefinancialsupportinthe2014-2020 perspective. Currently, changes to the programmes are being discussed so as to improve the public procurement process

and prevent the accumulation of projects duringthefinalyearsofthe2014-2020perspective, which would have an adverse effectonconstructioncompaniesthrougha rise in the prices of materials and labour costs in addition to disturbing road and railway transport. The market players emphasize the positive aspect of the dialogue between the public side and contractors, considering the large-scale investment plans for the upcoming years and prior EU perspective experience.

Construction of buildings and facilities (commercial and service facilities, residential, office and warehouse buildings)

No forecasts as to amounts in the longer term.

The volume of investments in progress is high in the commercial construction segment, but an increasing imbalance of the demand and supply can be observed, which may check the growth dynamics.

In the housing construction segment, the demand depends mainly on the funding available under government programmes. The demand in the segment is expected to decline following the expiry of the "Flats for the Young" programme, which is planned to be continued until 2018.

The history of Polimex-MostostalS.A.,whichistheparentcompany, dates back to the early post-war era. In its current form, the company was established through a merger of Polimex-CekopS.A.andMostostalSiedlce,whichtook place in 2004. Polimex-Mostostal S.A.hasbeenlistedontheWarsawStockExchange since 1997.

The Group operates in the power engineering, petrochemical and industrial construction sectors.

It has built the power units in the Kozienice and Opole power plants.

Apartfromtheparentcompany,in2015, the capital group was composed of Naftoremont-Naftobudowa Sp. z o.o. Polimex Power Sp. z o.o (these are two operating companies of the Group), PolimexOpoleSp.zo.o.sp.k.(former:PolimexProjektOpoleSp.zo.o.),PRInż– 1 Sp. z o.o., Stalfa Sp. z o.o., Polimex-MostostalUkrainaSAZ,PolimexOpoleSp.zo.o.(former:PolimexProjektKozieniceSp.z o.o.).

In 2015, the number of employees in the Group decreased by 413 to just over 5,000, which resulted from the implementation of a restructuring plan.

In 2015, the Polimex-Mostostal Capital Group completed the operational restructuringprocess.Aneworganizationalstructure was developed to centralize the supportfunctions;twosegments,namelypetrochemicals and power engineering, were separated organizationally and transferred to Naftoremont-Naftobudowa Sp. z o.o. and Polimex Power Sp. z o.o., which are separate commercial companies.
