Caterpillar's revenues for 2014 were US$55.2 billion (€48.60 billion), a 1% fall on its 2013 figure. The company's sales for the fourth quarter of 2014 were almost unchanged from the same period in 2013 at US$14.2 billion (€12.51 billion). However, the company's profit per share in 2014 improved by 2% over 2013 levels to US$5.99 (€5.27). This was despite a dip in profitability in the fourth quarter. Revenues for the company's Construction Industries division came in at US$4.42 billion (€3.89 billion) for the fourth quarter - a 9% decline on the same period last year.
