				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.airliquide.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>Air Liquide</strong></a> has identified three major trends as sources of its <strong>innovation and growth strategy toward 2020</strong>, being <strong>energy and environment transition</strong>, <strong>changes in healthcare</strong> and <strong>digitization</strong>. The acquisition of <strong>Airgas</strong> in the United States, completed last May 2016, increased the Group’s size with sales of <strong>Gas &amp; Services increased by +30%</strong>, optimally positioning Air Liquide in the United States, the world’s largest and most advanced industrial gas market for innovation and digitization.</p>
<p>Presenting the <strong>NEOS new corporate program</strong>, Air Liquide is aiming for revenue compound annual <strong>growth rate of +6% to +8%</strong> over the <strong>2016-2020</strong> period: the Group intends to generate substantial recurrent efficiency gains of more than 300 million euros on average per year, in addition to synergies to Airgas gains of more than 300 million US $, and a return on capital employed in excess of 10% after 5 to 6 years. Aiming to maintain its S&amp;P ‘A’ range rating thanks to the strength of its balance sheet, Air Liquide will then reinforce its actions aimed at <strong>improving the air quality</strong>, for better environment and health, pursuing an active dialogue with its stakeholders to contribute to a more sustainable world.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.airliquide.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>Air Liquide</strong></a> closed the first half of 2016 with Group <strong>revenues of 8.295 million euros</strong>, including 511 million of acquired <strong>Airgas</strong> sales consolidated as of 23 May 2016. The growth was +2,2% on a reported basis, and +8% excluding the <strong>currency and energy negative impact</strong>, both unfavorable during the period (respectively, -2,6% and -3,7%). <strong>Gas &amp; Services</strong> sales grew by <strong>+4,3%, at 7.618 million euros</strong>, including Airgas sales, and by 10,6% excluding currency and energy impact, with all geographies progressing on a comparable basis, and more pronounced in <strong>Asia Pacific and developing economies</strong>, that posted sales growth up to +11,4%.</p>
<p>The Group generated <strong>143 million euros</strong> in <strong>recurring efficiency gains</strong>, in line with the forecasts for the year. The Gas &amp; Services <strong>operating margin was 19,6%</strong>, the net profit (Group share) reached 811 million euros (842 million excluding the impact of Airgas acquisition), and cash flow was up substantially at +23%, excluding Airgas. “The <strong>Airgas acquisition</strong> characterized the first half of 2016 &#8211; commented <strong>Benoît Potier</strong>, chairman and ceo of Air Liquide &#8211; and it will be accretive in 2016. In a context of moderate global growth, Gas &amp; Services sales posted a robust growth, as a result of <strong>dynamic Electronics sales</strong>, <strong>higher volumes in Large industries</strong> and <strong>rising Healthcare business</strong>. We are confident in the ability of the completion of the acquisition of Airgas to generate growth in 2016, both in net profit and in net earnings per share, and the <strong>investment backlog, amounting to 2,1 billion euros</strong>, and recently signed new contracts, will also contribute to growth in the coming years”.</p>
