The annual reports of the companies owned by the father and two brothers of Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n were released on Tuesday. The records show that the firms, which have benefited from state projects and grew spectacularly in the past few years, slowed down in 2016 but still produced significant profit for the Orb\u00e1n family.<\/p>\n

The families\u2019 main companies – Dolomit Ltd, Neh\u00e9z K\u0151 Ltd, and G\u00e1nt K\u0151 Ltd -, which deal with mining, production of concrete items, and transportation, produced 3.5 billion forints (11.3 million euros) in revenues in 2016. Of this, the profit was 644 million forints (2 million euros). The owners decided to take out almost double of that, 1.2 billion forints (3.8 million euros), as dividend from the companies. Most of that, 730 million forints (2.3 million euros), is coming from G\u00e1nt K\u0151 and will be paid to the owners by the end of 2017.<\/p>\n

Direkt36 has recently revealed that the Orb\u00e1n family\u2019s companies have secretly benefited from EU-funded public projects<\/a>. Documents showed that Dolomit Ltd. participated in at least three large-scale sewerage system projects in recent years. According to sources involved in the projects, the contractors ordered building materials from Dolomit Ltd. despite the fact that they were more expensive than the competitors\u2019 products (some sources added that Dolomit Ltd.\u2019s products are of better quality).<\/p>\n

Other details also suggest that the Orb\u00e1n-companies have ties to state projects. By tailing trucks loaded at the mine in G\u00e1nt we discovered that Colas, one of the biggest players in Hungary\u2019s state-funded constructions, is among the clients of the Orb\u00e1n-companies. A freight company owned and managed by the PM\u2019s younger brother \u00c1ron Orb\u00e1n mostly lists public projects among its work references.<\/p>\n

The Orb\u00e1n companies nearly doubled their revenues between 2013 and 2015 and their profits were rising even faster. While in 2013 they gained only 15% of profit on their total revenue of 2.7 billion forints (8.6 million euros), their profit increased to 30% on 5.2 billion forints (16.7 million euros) of revenue by 2015. The profit gained during these three years was fully withdrawn from the companies. After deducting the share of the partners, Orb\u00e1n\u2019s family members received nearly 2 billion forints (6.4 million euros) in dividends.<\/p>\n
