Profits never before achieved, boosted by the beautiful summer on the rails: with 14 million long-distance tickets sold in July and August, the SNCF had exceeded its sales by 10% compared to 2019. The railway group would thus record a record profit in 2022: 2,200 million euros according to the parisian.
The final profit for 2022 will not be known until February, but the first half of 2022 had already set the standard: 928 million euros of net profit. Management is keeping quiet about these figures revealed by an anonymous source on a daily basis, in the midst of the NAO on wages and at the end of the Christmas weekend strike.
Sale of Akiem
Especially since these 2,200 million euros would have to be added the sale for more than 2,000 million of Akiem to Canadians, the locomotive rental company sold to the Caisse des dépôts du Québec under pressure from the government.
According to the unions, this would be proof of the effectiveness of the reforms and the work of the railway workers. Organizations that regret that 40% of the profits necessarily go to the fund dedicated to the modernization of the French rail network also used by the contest.
