Selvaag Bolig ASA: Q1 2025: Good Sales and More Homes Under Construction
Selvaag Bolig sold homes worth over NOK 1.2 billion gross in the first
quarter. Several construction starts have increased the number of homes under
construction to 1,012 with a value of NOK 7.2 billion.
"Sales in the quarter were very good, and we have had several successful sales
starts. Due to the good sales we have been able to start the construction of
several new projects. We now have 1,012 homes in production with a sales value
of NOK 7.2 billion. We also aim to further increase this order backlog going
forward," says CEO Sverre Molvik.
64 percent of the homes under construction are sold, and 85 percent of the
homes that will be completed in 2025 are sold. During the quarter, Selvaag
Bolig started construction of 183 homes, completed no new homes, and handed
over 34 homes to buyers.
Few deliveries cause a negative IFRS result this quarter. However, the ongoing
value creation in the company is good, due to an increased number of homes
under construction and good profitability in the projects.
"The high activity combined with good project margins will yield good results
going forward," says Molvik.
During the quarter, Selvaag Bolig sold 169 homes net and now has approximately
450 homes for sale. The company plans several sales starts going forward, with
a potential of an additional 500 homes for sale in the market in 2025.
