The Groups consolidated revenue totaled €24.673 billion compared with €28.603 billion at  December 31, 2003 (see the table in the appendix to the press release for further detail).  Revenue from businesses under the new scope of consolidation came to €24.645 billion at December 31, 2004, representing growth of 3.5% at current exchange rates. Revenue increased 4.4% at constant exchange rates.

The negative impact of currency fluctuations (€218 million) is mainly attributable to the weaker US dollar (negative impact of €172 million).

The internal growth rate of businesses under the new scope of consolidation was 3.9% .

Revenue from businesses under the new scope of consolidation outside France amounted to €11.140 billion, representing 45.2% of the total.

(1)New scope of consolidation

| | InFrance, revenue was affected by the much less favorable weather conditions than last year and the effects of the reduction in billings for payments collected on behalf of local water authorities (third-party revenue) during 2004. The business benefited from an excellent rate of contract renewals and an important contribution from new contracts and complementary services. Revenue growth came to 1%. However, excluding the payments collected on behalf of local authorities, revenue increased 2.6% .

| | Outside France, excluding Veolia Water Systems, internal growthremained brisk at nearly 9%. The businesses benefited from highly favorable trends across Europe and from the ramp-up in contracts won in the Asia-Pacific region (internal growth of 19%). The activities retained in the United States also performed well.

| | Revenue posted by Veolia Water Systems declined slightly by 2.7% at comparable scope and constant exchange rates owing to the drive to refocus on profitable contracts both in France and abroad.

| | InFrance, despite a challenging economic environment, expansion of the waste collection, sorting and incineration businesses helped to lift internal revenue growth to 6.6% .

| | Total revenue growthoutside France,excluding Latin America (Proactiva), was nearly 8% at comparable scope and constant exchange rates. Business in Northern and Central Europe (especially in the UK, Norway and the Czech Republic) posted continued strong growth. In the United States, the solid waste and industrial services activities recorded strong performance. Operations in Asia are continuing to benefit from satisfactory growth in volumes, especially in Hong Kong. Revenue in Australia posted a tangible increase on the back of expansion of the business in New South Wales and Queensland.

Energy services achieved internal revenue growth of 7.2% .

| | Revenue inFrancegrew internally by 5.9% as a result of expansion in business, especially with industrial customers, and the entry into service of cogeneration plants.

The 1.9% decrease in revenue was attributable to the discontinuation of rail and bus operations in the UK. Excluding this impact, internal growth came to 14.7% .

- InFrance, internal revenue growth of 8% was due to both business expansion as well as contract renewals and
extensions.
- Outside France,excluding the impact of the operations discontinued in the UK, internal revenue growth was 19.6%. Connex benefited in particular from
the full impact of the Boston contract, rail contracts won in Germany, and the renewal and extension of the Melbourne contract in Australia.



The level of revenue growth should help the Group to achieve its annual targets. Based on the preliminary annual figures available, the Group is reiterating its guidance of double-digit growth in EBIT (new scope of
  consolidation) over the full year. Thanks to the impact of strong cash flow, the level of net debt is likely to fall below the lower end of the forecast range of €10.5 billion to €11.0 billion. These initial elements confirm the
  improvement in the Groups performance and its ability to improve profitability and generate free cash flow.

|(1) | On December 31, 2004, Veolia Environnement applied paragraph 23100 of CRC Regulation 99-02, allowing companies to report the group share in the net income of businesses sold during the year on a separate line of the income
statement. The businesses are thus excluded from the new scope of consolidation and no longer contribute to consolidated revenue for the 2004 fiscal year.

|(2) | Without the application of paragraph 23100 of CRC Regulation 99-02 mentioned above.
