What A.C.B. does

A.C.B. (legal name Akciju sabiedrība "A.C.B.", trading as A.C.B. grupa / A.C.B. Group) is one of Latvia's leading infrastructure construction groups, founded in 1993 and headquartered in Riga with operational hubs in Smiltene and Rēzekne. The group operates as a vertically integrated platform combining three lines of business: construction (full-cycle road, bridge, railway, airport, and industrial/urban infrastructure delivery), production (asphalt concrete from plants with 25+ years of operating history, concrete paving stones and structural elements from subsidiary SIA Salenieku Bloks, and washed sand, gravel, and crushed stone from the Salenieki quarry), and services (engineering communications construction plus equipment rental with operators). Project delivery is executed through wholly owned subsidiaries AS A.C.B., SIA ACBR (road and bridge construction), SIA 8 CBR (construction services), and SIA Salenieku Bloks (concrete products).

The business model is Business-to-Government, with essentially all revenue earned through competitive public procurement. The group bids on and wins multi-year contracts from VSIA Latvijas Valsts ceļi (state roads), Latvian municipalities, and increasingly international public clients such as AB LTG Infra (Rail Baltica in Lithuania). Pricing is contract-by-contract, set by the procurement process; recent flagship wins include the €35.1M South Bridge 4th phase in Riga, a €22.2M mobility-points program across six Riga railway stations, and a €14.9M industrial park project in Valmiera. 2024 consolidated revenue was €92 million (€77.3M construction services + €14.7M materials and ancillary), with the group also producing material savings by reducing losses from €4.7M in 2023 to €0.157M in 2024. Headcount stands at 340–359 professionals across construction, production, and services.

Geographic footprint is concentrated in the Baltic region: Latvia is the core market, with Lithuania as a newer cross-border frontier via Rail Baltica contracts. Distribution is direct — the group secures projects through its own bidding and execution capability rather than through intermediaries — and it has built a long-running awards track record (Latvijas Būvniecības Gada balva 2024 and 2025 placements, plus recognition awards from the Building Design and Construction Council) that reinforces its standing with public-sector buyers. Customer concentration is essentially total in the public sector, which provides payment reliability and EU-funded project visibility but caps diversification.

Broad incumbents

• Skanska: Large Swedish-headquartered construction and infrastructure developer with growing Baltic exposure. Operates at much larger scale but competes for the same EU-funded infrastructure opportunities.
• YIT: Finnish construction and infrastructure company with Nordic-Baltic operations. Comparable for road and infrastructure projects in the wider Nordic region, including potential overlap in the Baltics.
• Strabag: Austrian-headquartered European construction group with significant presence in CEE and the Baltics. Comparable for large-scale transportation infrastructure projects that A.C.B. also targets.
• NRC Group: Nordic infrastructure contractor specialized in rail, road, and energy projects (formed via merger with Lemminkäinen). Comparable as a regional peer competing for cross-border Baltic rail and infrastructure work.
• Colas: Bouygues subsidiary specialized in road construction and materials production across Europe. Comparable to A.C.B.'s integrated road construction plus asphalt/aggregate production activities.

Direct peers

• Binders: Latvian road and infrastructure construction contractor. A.C.B. and Binders have jointly delivered large road projects (e.g., the Vidzeme highway A2 consortium), making Binders a directly comparable peer for Latvian heavy infrastructure work.
• Trev-2 Grupp: Estonian infrastructure and construction company focused on roads, bridges and civil works. Comparable to A.C.B. for road/bridge construction and quarry-adjacent materials operations in the Baltic market.
• Kauno tiltai: Lithuanian bridge and infrastructure construction group. Highly comparable to A.C.B.'s SIA ACBR bridge activities and provides a like-for-like benchmark for A.C.B.'s Rail Baltica and cross-border work in Lithuania.
• Merko Ehitus: Estonian-listed construction group active across buildings, infrastructure and real estate development in the Baltics. Comparable as a Baltic-region peer with similar government-customer mix and infrastructure project exposure.
• Panevėžio keliai: Lithuanian road construction and asphalt production company. Highly comparable to A.C.B.'s combined road construction and asphalt concrete production business model.
