Selvaag Bolig ASA: Q3 2024: Good sales and more homes under construction

Selvaag Bolig ASA: Q3 2024: Good sales and more homes under construction

Selvaag Bolig had operating revenues of NOK 1 473 million and an adjusted

EBITDA result (IFRS) of NOK 233 million for the first nine months of the year.

The company has sold homes worth over NOK 1.2 billion more than in the same

period last year.

In the first nine months of the year, the company sold 446 homes net, started

construction of 261 homes, and delivered 360 homes to buyers. At the end of

the quarter, Selvaag Bolig had 700 homes under construction with a total sales

value of NOK 4.5 billion. 67 percent of these homes were sold by the end of

the quarter, and 85 percent of the homes to be completed this year were sold.

"The results for this quarter alone are low because we have a fixed cost base

and only 54 homes were delivered to buyers. Results are recognized as income

only upon delivery to the customer. Profitability so far this year is good,

considering market conditions, and the outlook for the whole year 2024 is

positive. We have guided to complete 169 homes in the fourth quarter and a

total of 515 for the year overall," says CEO Sverre Molvik.

During the quarter, the number of homes under construction increased from 661

to 700, and the company believes in further growth going forward.

"There has been a positive development in the market so far this year, which

we believe will continue in line with interest rate cuts and more stable

construction costs. So far this year, we have sold homes worth over NOK 1.2

billion more than in the same period last year. If the positive market

development continues, this will result in significantly more project starts

than completions going forward," says Molvik.

all homes in joint venture projects.

** Pursuant to the IFRS, all profit is recognised when the homes are delivered

to the buyer. Profit pursuant to the IFRS accordingly derives primarily from

homes which began to be built roughly two years ago.

*** The accounts pursuant to Norwegian generally accepted accounting

principles (NGAAP) utilise the percentage of completion method. This means

that profits are recognised on the basis of construction progress and sales in

the projects. That presents ongoing value creation in the company.
