Abstract: The 80 largest French groups saw a sharp increase in their activity in the first half of 2015, chiefly on account of exchange rate effects. While their overall profitability declined, mainly due to unfavorable conditions in the energy and environment sector, their cash position reached a record level and investments rebounded.
