Selvaag Bolig ASA: Strong start to 2021

Selvaag Bolig delivered 124 homes in the first quarter of 2021, and the EBITDA

margin adjusted for financial costs came to 23 per cent. At 31 March, the group

had 1 349 homes worth NOK 6 627 million under construction.

"Sales in the first quarter were record-high, and we started construction of

more homes than we completed. We also had good margins on the units delivered

during the quarter. We expect a good and stable market in the time to come, and

are well positioned with good products and unique housing concepts in the right

places, says CEO Sverre Molvik.The figures are not directly comparable with the

same period of last year since the sale of much of Selvaag Bolig's land bank to

Urban Property was completed during the first quarter of 2020.

· Net construction under way on 1 349 homes (1 431) with a combined sales

value of NOK 6 627 million (NOK 6 742 million)

· 82 per cent (76 per cent) of homes under construction sold at 31 March

· 93 per cent of homes due for completion in 2021 are sold

· Pre-tax profit NOK 111 million (NOK 1 137 million)****

· IFRS**: Operating revenues of NOK 568 million (NOK 209 million), EBITDA

adjusted for financial expenses NOK 129 million (NOK 117 million), corresponding

to a margin of 23 per cent (56 per cent)

· Earnings per share: NOK 0.82 (NOK 12.80)****

· NGAAP***: Operating revenues of NOK 858 million (NOK 756 million), EBITDA of

NOK 147 million (NOK 160 million), corresponding to a margin of 17.2 per cent

(21.1 per cent)

· Net construction starts for 134 homes (15), net completions of 95 (89) and

net deliveries of 124 to buyers (114)

· Gross sales* amounted to 274 homes (196) with a sales value of NOK 1 431

million (NOK 1 031 million)

· Net sales were 248 homes (164) with a sales value of NOK 1 242 million (NOK

840 million)

* Net sales include Selvaag Bolig's share of joint ventures. Gross sales include

all homes in joint ventures. Units sold are sales contracts with customers

pursuant to the Norwegian Housing Construction Act.

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

to the buyer. Profit pursuant to the IFRS today 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.

**** The Urban Property transaction in 2020 had a one-off effect on the

company's pre-tax profit of NOK 1 029 million. Excluding that figure, pre-tax

profit for the first quarter of 2020 was NOK 108 million.
