"The improved orders received are now beginning to impact sales in the construction operations. In the third quarter, sales increased ten percent in the Construction units, but the handover of fewer completed housing units and properties entailed that the Group's total sales declined 11 percent in the third quarter.
"The profit that NCC reported for the first nine months of the year is satisfactory. Although profit was lower than in the year-earlier period, the third quarter of 2009 included a large property project that was recognized in profit and handed over to the customer. Our construction operations have generally succeeded in maintaining profitability, and earnings from our housing development operations have been deferred due to new accounting policies.
"This year, NCC started considerably more housing units than in the preceding year, primarily in Sweden, Germany and Finland. During the first nine months of the year, 3,021 (1,789) housing units were started, of which 727 (1,222) were in projects sold to investors. The start-up of property development projects has also increased from a low level, including a major project that we started in central Malmö, Sweden, during the third quarter.
"Our cash flow in the third quarter was lower than in the year-earlier period due to more housing and property project starts. Our indebtedness is low − net indebtedness at the end of the quarter amounted to SEK 1,610 M (4,657).
"Demand in the Nordic construction market improved during 2010, and our orders received rose 27 percent during the first nine months of the year. However, the rate of increase in orders received declined in the third quarter. NCC continues to expect some growth in the Nordic construction market in 2011."
Demand in the Nordic construction market increased during the year, albeit from a low level. Housing construction gained momentum and other building construction increased. The civil-engineering market's growth has leveled off. In 2011, NCC expects some growth in construction investments in housing units, offices and other building construction. The civil-engineering market is expected to remain at the same level as 2010.
Increased demand in the construction market entails increased demand for aggregates. After a sharp decline in the aggregates market in 2009, volumes recovered during the year and are expected to grow somewhat in 2011. Asphalt volumes have fallen during 2010, and NCC does not expect any significant growth in 2011.
The Nordic housing market is characterized by strong demand and stable prices. The price level in St. Petersburg and Estonia increased during the third quarter, but remained unchanged in Germany. NCC assesses that the demand for housing units in 2011 will remain favorable with an unchanged price level.
In the leasing market for commercial properties, vacancy rates and rents have stabilized. Rent levels have bottomed out but recovery will be slow. The number of property transactions is increasing from a low level. Investors' yield requirements declined somewhat during the third quarter in Oslo, Stockholm and Helsinki, while the yield requirement remained unchanged in Copenhagen.

1) Comparative figures have been recalculated to comply with a new accounting policy according to IFRIC 15, refer to page 10.
Orders received rose 4 percent to SEK 12,183 M (11,660). The increase was mainly attributable to the higher number of proprietary housing and property project starts compared with the year-earlier period, including a major development project start in Malmö, Sweden. Orders received increased in all of the Construction units except for Finland. The rate of increase in orders received declined during the third quarter. Changes in currency exchange rates had an adverse impact of SEK 448 M on orders received compared with the year-earlier period.
Orders received for proprietary housing projects totaled SEK 1,737 M (718) and orders received for proprietary property projects amounted to SEK 765 M (neg: 3).
The order backlog amounted to SEK 41,024 M (36,512) on September 30, of which orders for proprietary housing projects accounted for SEK 7,013 M (5,647) and orders for proprietary property projects for SEK 1, 653 M (387). An increase in orders received, primarily during the first half-year, resulted in a higher order backlog.
During the third quarter, 596 (246) proprietary housing units were started and 600 (668) were sold. In addition, 330 (862) housing starts were sold to investors. Compared with the year-earlier period, the startup rate was increased to satisfy demand in the housing market. Sales were somewhat lower than in the year-earlier period due to NCC having fewer housing units for sale. On June 30, 2010, the number of completed unsold housing units was 178. The number of completed unsold housing units declined during the third quarter and totaled 146 (526) at the end of September.
NCC Property Development started 3 (1) projects during the third quarter, of which two were in Sweden and one in Denmark. At the end of the quarter, NCC had 19 completed and ongoing property projects, of which 6 projects have been sold but not yet recognized in profit. Costs incurred in all projects initiated by NCC Property Development totaled SEK 1.1 billion (1.1), corresponding to 41 (84) percent of the total project costs of SEK 2.7 billion (1.3). The leasing rate on September 30 amounted to 59 (73) percent. On June 30, the leasing rate in the projects was 79 percent. The leasing rate declined when new projects with lower leasing rates were started in the quarter.
Orders received amounted to SEK 40,788 M (32,123). The increase was due to rises in housing and property project starts and in orders received for all Construction units. Changes in currency exchange rates reduced orders received by SEK 1,381 M compared with the year-earlier period.
Orders received for proprietary housing projects totaled SEK 6,008 M (1,885). During the first nine months of the year, 2,294 (567) proprietary housing units were started and 1,927 (2,353) were sold. Orders received for proprietary property projects amounted to SEK 1,845 M (194).

1) Comparative figures have been recalculated to comply with a new accounting policy according to IFRIC 15, refer to page 10.
Net sales declined 11 percent compared with the year-earlier period, amounting to SEK 12,448 M (13,992). The lower volume was primarily due to fewer completed and transferred projects in NCC Housing and NCC Property Development. After several quarters with improved orders received, sales increased in the Construction units compared with the year-earlier period.
Net sales amounted to SEK 34,082 M (40,061). The decline was due to the lower number of completed and transferred projects in NCC Housing and NCC Property Development, the downturn in orders received in 2009 in the Construction units, and a cold winter that led to delays and lower activity. Changes in currency exchange rates reduced sales by SEK 1,321 M compared with the year-earlier period.
Most recent quarter, July-September 2010
Operating profit for the third quarter of 2010 amounted to SEK 850 M (1,180), corresponding to an operating margin of 6.8 (8.4) percent. In the third quarter of the year-earlier period, one major property project was handed over and the resulting profit was recognized, which had a significant impact on earnings.
NCC Construction Sweden's earnings were high for seasonal reasons but slightly lower than in the yearearlier period. NCC Construction Denmark's earnings were higher year on year, primarily because of higher sales and lower overheads. The upturn in orders received at the end of last year and early this year has now resulted in rising volumes and improved earnings in NCC Construction Finland. The earnings in NCC Construction Norway remained largely unchanged compared with the year-earlier period.
NCC Roads reported higher earnings compared with the year-earlier period, when earnings were adversely impacted by competition-impeding damages of SEK 45 M in Finland. Aggregate volumes increased while asphalt volumes were low, and price competition in the asphalt market, particularly in Denmark, remained intense.
NCC Housing reported a loss, due to low sales and low average margins in projects that were sold in 2009 and are now being recognized in profit. In addition, earnings were adversely impacted by impairment losses of SEK 84 M (47) for land, primarily in Denmark.
NCC Property Development reported a loss due to low earnings from property sales. Three (1) new project sales were recognized in profit during the quarter.
"Other and eliminations" amounted to SEK 133 M (78). Provisions for inter-company gains amounted to SEK 87 M (38). The year-earlier period included SEK 70 M from a settlement concerning a project belonging to the phased-out business segment NCC International Projects, and the current period included SEK 45 M due to lower pension expenses.
Profit after financial items amounted to SEK 773 M (1,046). Net financial items amounted to an expense of SEK 77 M, which is SEK 57 M better than the year-earlier period.
Profit after tax for the period totaled SEK 618 M (885). The effective tax rate was 20 (15) percent. The tax rate in 2009 was positively impacted by NCC Property Development's sale of a property project through a company sale, whereby the resulting gain was tax exempt.
Operating profit amounted to SEK 1,406 M (1,852). The lower result compared with the year-earlier period was primarily due to lower earnings from property sales in NCC Property Development and a weak start to the year for NCC Roads. Large parts of the operations were adversely impacted by effects of the long, cold winter.
Profit after financial items amounted to SEK 1, 207 M (1,441). Net financial items amounted to an expense of SEK 199.
Profit after tax for the period totaled SEK 937 M (1,176). The effective tax rate was 22 (18) percent.
NCC Roads' operations and certain operations in NCC Construction units were impacted by seasonal variations due to the cold weather. This is normally the reason why the first and last quarters are weaker than the rest of the year. The effect on the first nine months of the year was greater than normal this year.
Most recent quarter, July-September 2010
Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital totaled SEK 1,259 M (1,541). Cash flow from operating activities was seasonably high in the third quarter.
Cash flow from changes in working capital amounted to a negative SEK 1,018 M (positive: 1,555). Extensive housing and property sales implemented during the year-earlier period generated unusually high cash flow. Fewer sales and increased activity in proprietary projects to date this year resulted in increased tied-up capital.
Cash flow from investment activities amounted to a negative SEK 169 M (neg: 104).
Cash flow before financing amounted to SEK 72 M (2,992). High cash flow from operating activities offset the outflow resulting from the focus on proprietary projects. The comparative period in the preceding year was unusually positive due to the combination of high cash flow from operating activities for the season and extensive housing and property sales.
Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 97 M (neg: 3,777).
Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital amounted to SEK 1,992 M (1,977). Higher earnings from housing and land sales offset lower earnings from property sales.
Cash flow from changes in working capital amounted to a negative SEK 890 M (positive: 1,533). Extensive housing and property sales implemented in the year-earlier period generated unusually high cash flow. Fewer sales and increased activity in proprietary projects increased tied-up capital. A high proportion of accounts receivable in NCC Roads also contributed to higher tied-up capital than in the year-earlier period.
Cash flow from investment activities amounted to a negative SEK 374 M (neg: 420), which was mainly accounted for by investments in asphalt, aggregates and road service operations.
Cash flow before financing amounted to SEK 727 M (3,090).
Cash flow from financing activities amounted to a negative SEK 333 M (neg: 3,044). Dividends had a negative impact of SEK 650 M (neg: 434) on cash flow. A higher number of ongoing housing projects in the year-earlier period, primarily during the first quarter, required increased external financing.
Total cash and cash equivalents including short-term investments with a maturity exceeding three months amounted to SEK 3,138 M (2, 314).
Comparative figures have been recalculated to comply with a new accounting policy according to IFRIC 15, refer to page 10.
Net indebtedness (interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents less interest-bearing receivables) on September 30 amounted to SEK 1,610 M (4,657); also refer to note 5, Specification of net indebtedness. On June 30, 2010, net indebtedness was SEK 1,734 M. The capital maturity period for interest-bearing liabilities, excluding loans in Finnish housing companies and Swedish tenant owner associations, was 34 (35) months at the end of the quarter. NCC's unutilized committed lines of credit on
Net indebtedness, closing balance -1,610 -4,657 -1,610 -4,657 -1,610 -1,784
September 30 amounted to SEK 3.6 billion (4.5) with an average remaining maturity period of 30 (27) months.
An account of the risks to which NCC may be exposed is presented in the 2009 Annual Report (pages 41- 43). This description remains relevant.
Significant risks and uncertainties for the Parent Company are identical to those of the Group, as described above.
No shares have been repurchased to date during 2010. The company has 21,138 repurchased Series B shares. Excluding these shares, the number of shares outstanding is 108,414,684.
NCC's Annual General Meeting will be held in Stockholm on April 13, 2011.
NCC's Annual General Meeting on April 14, 2010 elected Viveca Ax'son Johnson (Chairman of the Board of Nordstjernan AB), Kerstin Stenberg (Director of Swedbank Robur Fonder AB) and Peter Rudman (Director of Corporate Governance, Nordea Investment Funds) as members of the Nomination Committee, with Viveca Ax'son Johnson as Committee Chairman. Tomas Billing, Chairman of the Board, is a co-opted member of the Nomination Committee, but has no voting rights.

This interim report has been compiled pursuant to IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The interim report has been compiled in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the interpretations of financial standards by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as approved by the EU.
The interim report has been prepared pursuant to the same accounting policies and methods of calculation as the 2009 Annual Report (Note 1, pages 56 – 63), with the exception of the policy described below.
During the interim report period, NCC did not conduct any transactions that were affected by IFRIC 12, Service Concession Arrangements, or the revised IFRS 3, Business Combinations, and IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.
As of January 1, 2010, NCC applies IFRIS 15, Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate. This entails that sales of housing projects will generally not be recognized as profit until the projects have been handed over to the end customer, in contrast to prior years, when profit was recognized in pace with completion and sale. The change entails that recognition of revenues and profits on sales of housing projects will be deferred normally by about one or two years, compared with prior accounting policies.
NCC's assets and liabilities are also affected by the introduction of IFRIC 15. The greatest change is that unsold housing in Swedish tenant owner associations and Finnish housing companies has to be recognized in NCC's balance sheet, which mainly affects interest-bearing liabilities. This also entails a change in NCC's key figures, primarily capital employed, the equity/assets ratio and indebtedness. NCC's financial objectives have been adapted. NCC Housing is the segment of NCC's financial statements that is mainly affected by this change, although the changes have a minor impact on NCC Property Development and Construction units.
The effects of IFRIC 15 were published on March 17, 2010 (www.ncc.se/sv/ABOUT-NCC/Investorrelations/Capital-Market-Day/) for full-year 2009 and for all quarters of 2009.

In its capacity as issuer, NCC AB is releasing the information in this interim report for the January – September 2010 period pursuant to Chapter 17 of the Swedish Securities Market Act (2007:528). The information was distributed to the media for publication at 10.10 on Tuesday, November 9.
We have reviewed the condensed financial information concerning NCC AB for the interim report period January 1, 2007 to September 30, 2010. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity issued by FAR. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and a substantially more limited scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden RS and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed on the basis of a review does not provide the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed on the basis of an audit.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial information has not, in all material aspects, been compiled for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.
