PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q,10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Empresas ICA, S.A. de C.V. (the “Company”) will delay the filing of its annual report on Form 20-F. The Company expects to file its annual report with the Mexican and New York Stock Exchanges and the Securities and Exchange Commission by July 15, 2006.
This decision has been made as a result of the Company’s continued evaluation of the accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP for consolidating certain of its joint venture subsidiaries solely for purposes of the U.S. GAAP reconciliation of its financial statements that must be included in its annual report on Form 20-F.
Although the Company’s management has been working diligently to complete all of the required information for its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2005, and a substantial portion has been completed as of this date, the Company will not be able to complete its 2005 Form 20-F within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense.
