What Acciona does

Spanish infrastructure conglomerate spanning construction, water, renewable energy and real estate.

Construction contracts, won by bid and booked as work progresses, bring in most revenue. The renewable arm, Acciona Energia, was listed separately in 2021 but is still majority-owned, so its earnings consolidate. The Entrecanales family controls the parent.

In one line: A Spanish Bechtel/AECOM with a utility arm.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
