“Shaping SUEZ 2030”計劃 全面推動蘇伊士成為環(huán)境服務行業(yè)全球領(lǐng)導者
蘇伊士集團宣布“Shaping SUEZ 2030”計劃,旨在通過這項全面的戰(zhàn)略計劃為集團作出定位,以把握當前的機遇和應對未來十年的挑戰(zhàn)。該計劃將在四年內(nèi)進一步為各利益相關(guān)者創(chuàng)造價值,盡早在2021年取得實質(zhì)性成果,并對蘇伊士集團作出戰(zhàn)略定位——環(huán)境服務行業(yè)全球領(lǐng)導者。
蘇伊士將加速轉(zhuǎn)型,是基于與集團業(yè)務密切相關(guān)的主要行業(yè)的發(fā)展趨勢,包括循環(huán)經(jīng)濟的可持續(xù)增長及其對客戶的影響,新業(yè)務模式和新競爭對手的出現(xiàn),以及社會各界對氣候危機在觀念上的深刻轉(zhuǎn)變和采取具體行動的需要。
這項新計劃有助于集團充分利用自身的核心優(yōu)勢——創(chuàng)新、一流的技術(shù)和專業(yè)知識、卓越的團隊和良好的聲譽。它也是推動集團選擇性增長、簡化工作模式,進一步展現(xiàn)員工對環(huán)境的熱愛的最佳方式。
“Shaping SUEZ 2030”計劃,將在以下方面加速發(fā)展,為所有利益相關(guān)者增加價值:
- 選擇性的有機增長,包括規(guī)范管理資本性支出、對15%-20%資本組合進行輪換;
- 簡化架構(gòu),于2023年前通過推行10億歐元的績效計劃,將部分提高運營盈利能力,并加強在創(chuàng)新和數(shù)字化方面的投入;
- 讓客戶和員工共同參與,以全新的價值觀迎接變革、發(fā)揮蘇伊士的共贏精神。
這項計劃在中期將對集團各個層面進行全面改革:我們在未來四年的目標是將新的價值和文化融合到集團各個層面,以較低資本為持續(xù)、有機的增長奠定基礎,改變業(yè)務組合,并將我們的資本回報率至少提高兩個百分點,從而提高以正常派息比率增加股息的能力。
到2021年集團將呈現(xiàn)明顯變化,該年的財務指標反映集團的重點在盈利能力及其可持續(xù)性上:
2021 指標:
• 經(jīng)常性每股收益0.8 歐元
• 經(jīng)常性自由現(xiàn)金流5億歐元
• 凈負債 / 未計息稅、折舊及攤銷前利潤 2.8 - 3.0倍
蘇伊士集團首席執(zhí)行官康宇:
“藉著‘Shaping SUEZ 2030’計劃,我們矢志成為環(huán)境服務行業(yè)全球領(lǐng)導者,讓蘇伊士成為客戶、員工和利益相關(guān)者的首選,共同努力恢復和保護自然環(huán)境要素:水、空氣和土壤。
憑借蘇伊士悠久的聲譽、一流的技術(shù),及對可持續(xù)發(fā)展的專業(yè)知識,我們將重新定位集團的戰(zhàn)略, 以配合市場的變化及因應當下環(huán)境的需求而作出貢獻,務求盡早在2021年前提升我們創(chuàng)造的價值。為了使這項戰(zhàn)略計劃全面落實, 我們必須作出選擇性增長、簡化工作模式及對公司文化進行變革。
我們在水務、固廢資源管理以及環(huán)境技術(shù)與方案三個不同的業(yè)務范疇都看到機遇:我們將擴大與工業(yè)客戶的合作、投放更多資源在以技術(shù)和數(shù)字化環(huán)境解決方案為基礎的業(yè)務上, 使我們在國際市場上繼續(xù)增長。與此同時, 我們將繼續(xù)以歐洲作為我們創(chuàng)新和可持續(xù)發(fā)展的強大后盾。
上述這些行動現(xiàn)已啟動, 它將帶領(lǐng)我們踏上通往2023年的四年之旅, 以落實集團在各個方面的變革。我們承諾在2021年前集團會呈現(xiàn)出明顯變化。
蘇伊士所有員工及董事會成員的全力支持和參與,促使我們制定這項雄心勃勃、穩(wěn)健且令人振奮的計劃。現(xiàn)時, 此計劃已落實執(zhí)行。
而蘇伊士2030計劃的成功,則有賴調(diào)動我們所有員工的努力及專業(yè)技能,以更好地為我們的客戶和合作伙伴提供服務。我們?nèi)碌膬r值觀(對環(huán)境的熱愛、以客戶為先、互相尊重及團隊的合作精神),與蘇伊士的文化(發(fā)揮共贏精神)相結(jié)合,將支持集團深層變革、落實戰(zhàn)略計劃的推行。”

SHAPING SUEZ 2030
A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
TO BECOME THE GLOBAL LEADER IN ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES
SUEZ announces today “Shaping SUEZ 2030”, a comprehensive strategic plan to position the Group - now - for the opportunities and the challenges of the next decade. The plan enhances value creation for all stakeholders over 4 years with material results as soon as 2021. The plan positions SUEZ as the global leader in environmental services.
Given the key trends in our business - the continued growth of the circular economy and its impact on our customers, the emergence of new business models and new competitors, combined with a profound shift of the mindset of citizens towards the climate crisis and a need for concrete action
- SUEZ will accelerate its transformation.
With this new plan, the Group leverages its core strengths – innovation, best in class technologies and know-how, exceptional teams and an excellent reputation. The plan drives selectivity in growth, simplicity in its way of working and a renewed engagement grounded on a passion for the environment.
“Shaping SUEZ 2030” will increase value for all stakeholders by accelerating:
- Selectivity in organic growth, comprising capex discipline and also portfolio rotation for which businesses have been identified accounting for 15-20% of our capital employed
- Simplicity with a leaner organization, underpinned by a €1bn efficiency plan by 2023 which will in part improve operating profitability as well as finance a step-up in investment in innovation and digitization
- Engagement with our customers and from our employees, embracing change and reviving our winning spirit with a refreshed core of values
The plan will transform the Group at all levels in the mid-term: our ambition for the four years to 2023 is to embed our new values and culture firmly across the Group, set the scene for sustained organic growth with lower capital intensity, change our business portfolio and improve our returns on capital employed by at least two points, enhancing our capacity to increase our dividend at a normal payout ratio.
![]() |
Change will be evident already by 2021 and the Group’s financial objectives for that year reflect our intention to focus going forward on profitability and sustainability:
Bertrand Camus, SUEZ CEO, commented:
“With Shaping SUEZ 2030, our ambition is to be the global leader in environmental services, making us the preferred choice of our customers, employees and stakeholders, working together to restore and preserve the fundamental elements of the environment: water, air and soil.
Building on SUEZ’s long-standing reputation, best-in-class technologies, expertise in sustainability, we will reposition the Group’s strategy. We will embrace changes in our markets and contribute here and now to environmental needs, while driving improvements in the value we create as soon as 2021. Our comprehensive plan calls for selectivity in growth, simplicity in our way of working and an evolution in the company’s culture.
We see opportunities across each of our three business segments (Water, Recycling & Recovery and Environmental Technologies & Solutions): we will grow in International markets, do more with Industrial customers and win business based on technology and data-driven environmental solutions, with Europe remaining at the heart of our innovation and sustainability.
Taken together, the set of actions we have started to execute take us on a 4-year journey to 2023, during which we will transform the group in every respect. We commit to show visible progress already in 2021.
The engagement and full support of all the teams at Suez and the Board of Directors has enabled us to build an ambitious, robust and exciting plan – we have now started to execute.
The success of SUEZ 2030 will be based on mobilizing the energy and expertise of all our committed employees - to better serve our customers and partners. Our new values - passion for the environment, customer first, respect, team spirit - combined with a culture which revives our winning-spirit, will all support the deep transformation which underpins our strategic plan.”

1 2021 guidance assumes no material change in economic and market conditions (incl. interest rates, forex and commodity prices) vs. those observed over the past 12 months. Please, see definition of alternative performance indicators in appendix. 2 Debt including IFRS 16.
“Shaping SUEZ 2030” will be implemented across the Group’s three business segments:
· Water (c. 40% of 2018 sales) regroups all SUEZ municipal water activities globally,
· Recycling & Recovery (c. 40% of 2018 sales) regroups all SUEZ waste activities related to non-hazardous waste with municipal as well as with Industrial & Commercial customers,
· Environmental Tech & Solutions (c.20% of 2018 sales) regroups WTS, hazardous waste and speciality environmental solutions for industrial and municipal customers.
The main drivers of the plan are:
Selectivity - Steering selectivity in growth, the Group intends to leverage its strong European innovation capabilities and accelerate where it has identified the best opportunities on the following priorities for all parts of the Group:
· International markets: The Group targets growth in selected countries where it will deploy its full-value proposition and further expand into innovative services. In addition, it plans to enter selected markets with fast-growing environmental infrastructure needs, with the ambition to reach 60% of Group revenue.
· Industrial customers: The Group accelerates on 5 key high-growth markets and prioritizes activities with the highest value-add leveraging its distinctive portfolio of solutions. Working hand-in-hand with its industrial customers, it will design custom made, integrated solutions to help them achieve their sustainability roadmap, with the ambition to be above 50% of Group revenue.
· Technology and data-driven solutions: The Group leverages proprietary technologies and innovation to develop and roll-out globally advanced solutions. It will also build new high-potential asset-light businesses such as air quality management and smart agriculture, with the ambition to exceed 30% of Group revenue.
The Group’s capital allocation will evolve, to reflect these priorities:
· Prioritize value over volume with a strong change of direction in nature of spending
· Align business portfolio with value creation ambitions: businesses representing 15-20% of capital employed have been identified as part of asset rotation program
Simplicity - Promoting simplicity in its way of working, SUEZ will improve its operational performance, in part to boost innovation and digitization to fuel future growth
· Roll out a leaner and more efficient organization, with reduced number of business units and a devolved decision-making process to best serve our customers
· Optimize and standardize industrial processes, accelerate transformation in procurement and external resources, rationalize indirect costs, notably SG&A
· The objective of the above measures is to deliver €1bn of annual savings by 2023 of which 35 to 45% are expected to benefit SUEZ’s profitability with around 45 to 50% of this annual saving already evident in 2021
Engagement with our customers and from employees - Embrace change and renew the SUEZ winning spirit
· Foster engagement around 4 new values: passion for the environment, customer first, respect, team spirit
· Upgrade talents, leadership and skills across the organization
· Promote new Centers of Excellence in emerging markets with distinctive capabilities
· Accelerate execution and performance, thanks to increased accountability
· Management team’s incentives will be realigned with financial objectives
Guidance and forward looking information:
2021 guidance3:
· €0.8 recurring EPS
· €500 million recurring Free Cash Flow
· Net Debt4 at 2.8 to 3.0x EBITDA
Additional financial elements, including one-offs:
2019: €150-200m one-offs offsetting Argentine settlement, largely non-cash Future: €500-700m total one-off charges, majority to be accounted for in 2020
The new reporting segments will take effect at the latest on 1 January 2020 and a reconciliation will be given with the prior framework.

- Organic revenue growth of 2% to 3%
- Organic EBIT growth of 4% to 5%
- FCF growth of around 7% to 8%
- Leverage ratio (Net debt/EBITDA) of c.3x in 20196

On this basis, and in accordance with the Board of Directors, the Group intends to propose a dividend of €0.65 per share in respect of 2019 at the Annual General Meeting in May 2020.
Upgraded sustainable development commitment for 2030:
· Reduce GHG emissions by 45% (vs. 30% previously), in line with +1.5°C trajectory/carbon neutrality in 2050
