BAM Nuttall’s turnover grew 3.6% in 2013 to £756m (2012: £730m) but pre-tax profits were down 41% to £10.7m (2012: £18.1m).
However, with some significant new orders picked up during the year, the forward order book ended the year not too badly dented at £943m (2012 £1,082m).
“We continue to adopt a selective approach to work winning, choosing to concentrate our activities principally in the rail, highways and maritime sectors,” said chief executive Stephen Fox.
