Shouldn´t it be updated?
Custodia sold its paticipation to ACS, which is now the main shareholder.--FAR 15:19, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I've updated the figures, the corporate structure, the shareholders structure and the box. Unfortunately the HOCHTIEF's annual report doesn't give a figure like "revenue". As a construction company HOCHTIEF always speaks of their "work done", so I put that in the text and tried to put it in the box too. Tried, because somehow that change doesn't show up. Perhaps somebody could fix this? Please excuse if I made any mistakes, e.g. in referencing. I normally work in the German Wikipedia. --Wortschatz 07:30, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Eugen Vögler / Albert Vögler
Confusing the two brothers Eugen Vögler and Albert Vögler is quite a common disease. (see: Reichshandbuch der deutschen Gesellschaft, Part II, 1931) --217.254.2.246 22:38, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Albert Vögler (1877−1945), CEO of the Vereinigte Stahlwerke AG (founded in 1926), former protegée of Hugo Stinnes, suicide on April 14th 1945 near his mansion at Wittbräuke (south of Dortmund)
 * Eugen Vögler (1883?−1956), CEO of Hochtief AG, lived at Essen, worked for Hochtief also after 1945

HOCHTIEF Company structure now is:
The six divisions of Hochtief are:

Hochtief Americas (Turner Construction) Hochtief Asia Pacific (Leighton Holdings 55 Prozent) Hochtief Concessions Hochtief Europe Hochtief Real Estate Hochtief Services —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.139.171.77 (talk) 09:34, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

New structure and new results
I've updated the corporate structure (which is now down to four divisions) and added the latest financial results from the annual report 2010. Also I removed a sentence about ACS that had no source and was POV. In return I included some information about the takeover offer. I hope this is okay for everyboday.

Self introduction and question regarding outdated content
Hello, We are the Corporate Press Department of Hochtief AG in Germany (Essen based). My name is Christian Gerhardus, I am the Head of Media Relations at Hochtief (please take a look at http://www.hochtief.com/hochtief_en/656.jhtml?c=cg). We have an official and testified account on Wikipedia Germany. Over the course of the last year we worked together with the administrators of the German Wikipedia site to update and improve the information given reg. Hochtief. We learned that advertising or "pr wording" are forbidden and stuck to the rules of Wikipedia. Together with the German admins we have achieved a good result.

We recognized that the information given on "Hochtief" in the English Wikipedia is quite outdated. Many things are wrong, others are missing. We would like to support anyone who wants to improve the text. For example we could deliver an English translation of the German Wikipedia text for your review.

As we know that the English Wikipedia differs from the German one we would like to be careful and avoid any type of mistakes or misunderstandings.

Please let us know how we could help to update and improve the text.

Thank you and kind regards, --Hochtief Konzernpressestelle (talk) 12:15, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I left some advice at your talk page, but as far as this article is concerned, can we start in a small way and identify text in the article which is wrong or outdated. WT:WikiProject Companies is the relevant wiki project, and someone there may be able to help. Also, the people who watch WP:COIN may have advice. I have added this page to my watchlist and may be able to do something minor, but I am busy elsewhere and this topic is outside my interest. Johnuniq (talk) 09:24, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Translation of German Article
Hi everybody, Unfortunately our official company account has been blocked for the English Wikipedia as a result of our self introduction above. That's a pitty as our attempt has been transparent and official, but we do understand and accept the rules. But please accept in reaction that we (as a company) don`t want to use some sort of "private" accounts (like this one) to do changes to the article on Hochtief. From our point of view this would be an "undercover operation" and we don`t want to work that way. On the other hand the article contains outdated information and needs to be updated. To support the English Wikipedia community to update the article on Hochtief we did a translation of the German article. Please find it below for your disposal. We hope this helps and please do not hesitate to aks us for clarification or further information. Kind regards, Christian Gerhardus

Products and services Hochtief carries out infrastructure projects around the world, some of which are part of concession arrangements and public-private partnerships. The company's core competence is construction. In 2013, the company no longer considered itself as a company providing services across the entire value chain of planning, financing, construction and operation. Instead it then concentrated on building transportation and energy infrastructure as well as social/urban infrastructure and mining.[3][4] In Australia, Hochtief is the market leader through its listed subsidiary, Leighton. Hochtief operates in the US commercial construction market via its subsidiary, Turner.

Urban and social infrastructure The company develops and builds neighborhoods and quarters, including residential properties and retirement properties with shops, offices, and leisure facilities. In addition, Hochtief builds pure-play office space, commercial, and industry properties, event facilities, shopping centers, and hotels.[5] Hochtief constructs and operates administration buildings, schools, universities, barracks and town halls, as part of public-private partnership programs in Europe, Canada, and the USA.[6][7]

Energy infrastructure Alongside the construction of power plants, geothermal and hydro-electric power plants, Hochtief provides construction services for offshore wind farms using jack-up vessels and jack-up rigs, including Thor, Innovation, and Vidar. Its responsibilities cover transporting and erecting the wind farms. Furthermore, the company plans offshore wind farms, constructs pumped-storage hydroelectricity plants and has established a subsidiary for constructing power lines.[6][8][9]

Transportation infrastructure Hochtief constructs bridges, railroads and train stations, airports and sea ports, roads, tunnels and highways both in Germany and internationally, in some cases as part of concession arrangements such as public-private partnerships.[6]

Mining Hochtief operates in the mining sector via the Leighton Group, the largest contract miner in the world. Contract mining means taking over and operating a mine on behalf of the mine's owner. This can include planning and establishing the mine, exploiting and transporting the raw materials, operating the mine including technical services for equipment, building required transportation as well as final dismantling and land restoration.[6]

History

Early years The company was founded in 1873 by the Kelsterbach-born brothers Philipp Helfmann (bricklayer) and Balthasar Helfmann (locksmith) in Frankfurt am Main as Gebrüder Helfmann.[10] Five years later in 1878, the Helfmann brothers obtained their first major contract, for the construction of the University of Giessen.[11] Shortly after the death of Balthasar, Philipp converted the company into a joint stock corporation Aktiengesellschaft für Hoch- und Tiefbauten ("Construction and Civil Engineering Corporation") in 1896. The company's headquarters were moved in 1922 to Essen.[12] The reason for this was a contract signed with Hugo Stinnes on February 10, 1921. Stinnes took a holding in Hochtief and was obligated in return to use only Hochtief for the construction projects of the Stinnes Group.[A 1] Following Stinnes' death in 1924 and the collapse of his industrial empire, Hochtief found itself in financial difficulties also. Hyperinflation also had a very negative on the construction sector. Hochtief shares owned by the Stinnes company were subsequently acquired by RWE and AEG.

Hochtief under National Socialism From 1933, Hochtief was also ensnared in the structures of National Socialism. The CEO Eugen Vögler, joined the NSDAP in 1937 and became Leader of the Construction Industry Business Group and Honorary Leader of the Hitler Youth. Hochtief itself expelled all Jews from the Supervisory Board and other positions of responsibility by 1935. As a construction company, Hochtief benefited from the economic recovery and extensive public works programs of the State. This initially included civilian properties such as expanding the Reichsautobahns, as well as the Congress Hall and the German stadium on the Nazi party rally grounds in Nuremberg. Starting in 1937, Hochtief worked on the construction of the Second Siegfried Line in a project managed by the Todt Organization and subsequently participated in the construction of the Führerbunker[13] and major military installations. From 1939/1940, the firm began to use more and more forced labor in its projects. The company states it has examined its history during the period of National Socialism self-critically and published it in a book in 2000.[14]

Revival and recent history

1945 – 1966 Following Germany's collapse in 1945, Hochtief suffered not only from the loss of its branches in East Germany, but also its international business. Work continued under the aegis of the new CEO, Artur Konrad. The Wirtschaftswunder (economic miracle) began with the reconstruction of Germany, which saw large benefits for the construction industry as a result of the widespread destruction. For Hochtief, the years following the currency reform in 1948 were its economic miracle. As early as the start of the 1950s, Hochtief had begun rebuilding its business outside Germany. Some of the first foreign contracts after the Second World War included a series of energy infrastructure projects in Turkey and bridges and smelting works in Egypt. From 1951 to 1952, Hochtief's first post-Second World War foreign project was the construction of the bridge over the Nile at Mansourah in Egypt. In 1952, construction began on the Sariyar hydroelectric power plant, and in 1953 on the Izmir power station. HOCHTIEF also took shares in a harbor-building company in Kandla, India in 1954. A high-profile success for the company was moving the Abu Simbel temples (November 1963 to September 1968) and the Temple of Kalabsha (1961 to 1963).[15] This UNESCO World Heritage Site had to be moved as a result of the construction of the Aswan High Dam.[16][17][18][19]

1966 – 1989 The focus of the company began to move away from pure-play construction towards more turnkey work and services, for example, the Hilton Hotel in Athens. However, up until the mid-1970s business outside Germany represented only a small part of operations. Most orders during this period were domestic, driven by Germany's economic boom, with a particular strength in building power stations. This included the construction of Kahl nuclear power plant, near Großwelzheim, a district of the Lower Franconian community of Karlstein am Main in Bavaria. The boiling water reactor nuclear power plant was the first commercial nuclear power plant in West Germany. The power plant was commissioned by RWE and Bayernwerk and constructed by Allgemeine Elektricitäts-Gesellschaft (AEG), with General Electric as the licensor and supplier for the boiling water reactor. The nuclear power plant went into operation on November 13, 1960 and began to feed electricity into the grid on June 17, 1961. At the same time, the company also undertook transportation infrastructure projects in the 1960s and 1970s, including the Raúl Uranga Subfluvial Tunnel in Argentina, the New Elbe Tunnel in Hamburg and the Bosporus Bridge in Istanbul. Following the 1973 oil crisis, the company benefited from the unexpected wealth of the oil exporting countries. Hochtief implemented what had been its largest contract with the turnkey construction of King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah, the largest airport in Saudi Arabia. As a result, work outside Germany accounted for more than 50% of Hochtief's business for the first time in 1980. Only by increasing domestic business did the company maintain stability. This was due to major projects completed in the 1980s.

1990 – 2007 Following German reunification, the company benefited from an upturn in construction. However, from 1993, it was exposed to increased competitive pressure as the economy weakened. At that time, the company, initially under Hans-Peter Keitel, then later Herbert Lütkestratkötter, introduced a new strategy. This covered all aspects of the value chain, including planning, financing, construction and service provision. Acquisitions were made accordingly, and new business activities were opened up. In order to handle these business activities, Hochtief established new businesses. •	1991 - Project development •	1996 - Facility management •	1997 - Airport management •	2002 - Infrastructure development and financing The company also expanded on the basis of international acquisitions: •	2000 - Turner Corporation, USA (100%) •	2001 - Leighton Holdings, Australia In 2004, Hochtief was converted from a subsidiary into a public company. With majority shareholder RWE selling its shares, Hochtief received a new international shareholder structure. At the end of the 2004 fiscal year, more than 80% of shares were in free float. In 2004, through the purchase of service companies Siemens Facility Management and Lufthansa Facility Management, the Hochtief Facility Management subsidiary increased in size from 800 employees to approximately 4,500 employees. In 2007, civil engineering company Flatiron, a leading provider for infrastructure projects in the USA, was acquired. The company also gained a foothold in the Gulf region with a number of years of representation in the Gulf States through the Habtoor Leighton Group, a Leighton subsidiary.

Loss of independence At the beginning of 2006, August von Finck acquired a 25.01% share via his company, Custodia Holding. In March 2007, the Spanish construction group Actividades de Construcción y Servicios (ACS) acquired Custodia's holding for EUR 72 per share. The transaction volume was EUR 1.264 billion. Subsequently, ACS acquired further shares and by September 2010, held 29.9% in Hochtief. On September 16, 2010, ACS announced a public takeover bid for the remaining shares, offering eight ACS shares for five Hochtief shares.[20] On November 29, ACS's takeover of Hochtief was approved by the BaFin (German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority).[21] In December, Qatar Holding, from the Emirate of Qatar, subscribed a reserved capital increase, thus acquiring a stake of almost 9.1%.[22] In January 2011, after ACS had raised its offer to nine shares for five Hochtief shares, ACS finally announced that it held a stake in Hochtief exceeding 30%, following the close of the takeover bid. [23] In June 2011, ACS held a total of just over 50% in Hochtief, since the voting rights of shares held by Hochtief itself were allocated to ACS.[24] In April 2011, CEO Lütkestratkötter announced his resignation at the end of the General Shareholders Meeting on May 12, 2011. His successor was Hochtief Executive Board member, Frank Stieler.[25] Stieler aligned the company's strategy with the focus on realizing energy and transportation infrastructure. These areas were defined as the core business of the company in 2013, alongside traditional construction. In November 2012, Stieler retired with immediate effect. His successor was Marcelino Fernández Verdes, who previously had been Chief Operating Officer at ACS. Supervisory Board Chairman Manfred Wennemer also stepped down from his position on December 31, 2012. His successor was Thomas Eichelmann, a member of the Supervisory Board up to that point.[26]

Restructuring and realignment In late February 2013, the Group, now under Spanish management, announced a change in its strategy: in future Hochtief would focus on the core competence of construction, and in particular the construction of major infrastructure projects. Business areas that were no longer part of core business would be sold.[27] As a result of this decision, Hochtief announced the sale of its Hochtief Airport subsidiary to Canadian infrastructure investor PSP Investments for approximately EUR 1.1 billion at the beginning of May 2013 and the sale of its Service Solutions division, in which the company's facility and energy management activities were bundled, to French company Spie at the beginning of June 2013.[28][29] In February 2014, the shareholding (50%) in the real estate company aurelis Real Estate, a former subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn, was sold to a consortium of investors led by the private equity company Grove.[30] This was followed by further sales of smaller business units.[31] At the same time, Hochtief began radical restructuring of its loss-making European activities: the Group spun off its construction business, previously bundled in one unit, into four largely autonomous companies and downsized up to 1,000 jobs, primarily in Germany.[27] [32] [33] [34]
