Comments by CEO Olle Ehrlén

"The 2009 fiscal year was characterized by recession and a downturn in demand in the Nordic construction market. For the full-year, orders received by NCC were 11 percent lower than in 2008. In the fourth quarter orders received amounted to SEK 14,216 M (9,670), representing a year-on-year increase.

"Profit after financial items declined in 2009 to SEK 1,694 M (2,385). Operating profit was in line with the preceding year and the operating margin was 4.1 percent (3.9).

"During 2009, NCC focused on such areas as cash flow and tied-up capital. Cash flow before financing improved and amounted to SEK 2,837 M (neg. 178). Net indebtedness was reduced by SEK 1,900 M in the fourth quarter and totaled SEK 754 M (3,207) at year-end 2009.

"Low interest rates and an expansive fiscal policy favored the housing market. In the fourth quarter, NCC sold 922 (358) housing units, and 571 (minus 1) housing starts were carried out. In addition, there were 352 housing starts (minus 35) in projects sold to investors.

"The construction industry is a late-cyclical sector. No major improvement in demand can be expected in the Nordic construction market during 2010 and we also expect pressure on our margins. Civil engineering and NCC's housing operations are expected to show growth but will not be able to offset the weak market for buildings and commercial properties."

NCC AB

Market outlook

The Nordic construction market was weak during 2009, with a low demand for housing, offices and other buildings, primarily from private customers. Demand from the public sector was not impacted by the economic downturn to the same extent. Interest in constructing rental apartments increased. No growth in terms of construction investments in housing, offices and other buildings is expected in 2010. However, the prospects in the civil engineering market appear brighter, partly thanks to government infrastructure programs.

During 2009, demand for aggregates and asphalt was lower than in the preceding year. The anticipated decline in activity in the construction market in 2010 will also impact demand for aggregates and asphalt, although such demand will benefit from a growing civil engineering market.

Following a period of sharp decline in late 2008 and early 2009, the housing market stabilized during the second quarter of 2009. This positive trend continued in the second half of the year and certain markets, such as Norway and metropolitan areas in Sweden, demonstrated price increases. NCC expects stable or slightly rising demand for housing in all of NCC's submarkets in 2010, with the exception of the Baltic region.

The market trend for commercial properties was negative during 2009. The rental market reported rising vacancies and falling rents. During the second half of the year, the number of property transactions increased, albeit from a low level. Yield requirements stabilized during the same period. NCC's assessment is that the market conditions for commercial properties will be challenging in 2010.

Orders received and order backlog

1) All comparative figures are pro forma due to new organisation structure.

Most recent quarter, October-December 2009

Compared with the year-earlier period, orders received in the fourth quarter increased to SEK 14,216 M (9,670). In 2008, a weak trend was noted for orders received, in part due to negative orders received for proprietary housing projects. In 2009, more housing starts and high demand for housing resulted in orders received by NCC Housing rising by SEK 2,121 M. A large part of the rise noted in the Group was also attributable to an increase in orders received in all NCC Construction units. Orders received by NCC Construction Norway increased sharply partly due to a major tunnel construction project in Trondheim. Exchange-rate changes resulted in an increase of SEK 263 M in orders received, compared with the yearearlier period.

Orders received for proprietary housing projects totaled SEK 1,348 M (neg. 869) and orders received for proprietary property projects amounted to SEK 228 M (472).

The order backlog on December 31 amounted to SEK 34,084 M (40,426), of which orders for proprietary housing projects accounted for SEK 2,821 M (7,884) and proprietary property projects for SEK 336 M (1,319). On September 30, the order backlog was SEK 33,721 M.

Proprietary housing

During the fourth quarter, 571 (minus 1) proprietary housing starts were reported and 922 (358) units were sold. In addition, there were 352 (minus 35) housing starts in Finland as part of projects sold to investors. Following a weak start to the year, the market stabilized in the spring and, during the second half of the year, low interest rates boosted demand. This enabled more housing projects to be started during the second half of the year. The number of completed unsold housing units on December 31 was 391 (831). On September 30, the number of completed unsold housing units was 526.

Proprietary property development projects

Costs incurred in all projects initiated by NCC Property Development totaled SEK 0.9 billion (1.5), corresponding to 74 percent (67) of total project costs of SEK 1.2 billion (2.3). The leasing rate on December 31 was 65 percent (56). On September 30, the leasing rate for the projects was 73 percent.

Full-year period, January-December 2009

Orders received totaled SEK 45,957 M (51,864). The decline was largely due to NCC Construction Sweden, which received fewer orders for housing and civil engineering projects compared with the preceding year. Orders received by NCC Construction Norway, which secured several major orders in the fourth quarter, increased by 32 percent in 2009. NCC Construction Finland and NCC Housing also reported increases in orders received. Exchange-rate changes resulted in an increase of SEK 1,670 M in orders received, compared with the preceding year.

Orders received for proprietary housing projects totaled SEK 3,027 M (3,347). During the year, 1,138 (1,568) proprietary housing starts were carried out and 3,275 (2,416) units were sold. In addition, there were 1,574 (284) housing starts in projects sold to investors. Orders received for proprietary property development projects amounted to SEK 422 M (1,779).

Net sales and earnings per business segment

1) All comparative figures are pro forma due to new organisation structure.

Net sales

Most recent quarter, October-December 2009

Net sales dropped 12 percent to SEK 14,549 M (16,485). The year-on-year decline was due to several quarters with a downward trend for orders received in NCC's Construction units, which impacted sales after a certain time lag. Sales of housing units increased, while property sales declined, compared with the year-earlier period. Volumes of asphalt and aggregates tracked the trend of declining demand in the construction market. Exchange-rate changes had a positive impact of SEK 202 M on sales, compared with the year-earlier period.

Full-year period, January-December 2009

Net sales declined 10 percent to SEK 51,817 (57,465). Compared with the preceding year, net sales were lower in all quarters. The decline was somewhat greater during the second half of the year. Exchange-rate changes increased sales by SEK 1,837 M, compared with the preceding year.

Earnings

Most recent quarter, October-December 2009

Operating profit was higher than in the year-earlier period and totaled SEK 735 M (294). In the yearearlier period, earnings were charged with a total of SEK 670 M in the form of impairments of land and completed unsold housing units amounting to SEK 532 M and restructuring costs of SEK 138 M. In 2009, impairment losses of land and completed unsold housing units amounted to SEK 21 M. Compared with the year-earlier period, exchange-rate changes increased operating profit by SEK 21 M.

NCC Construction Sweden's earnings were lower than in the year-earlier period due to a volume decline of 13 percent. The operating margin remained satisfactory, in part as a result of efficient risk management and adaptation of the organization and costs. NCC Construction Denmark's earnings declined during the quarter, compared with the year-earlier period, due to lower volumes. However, the operating margin was at the same level as in the year-earlier period, despite costs for adapting the organization. NCC Construction Finland's operating profit was higher than in the year-earlier period thanks to healthy profitability in Finland, although earnings were impacted negatively by a weak market in the Baltic region. NCC Construction Norway's operating profit was lower than in the year-earlier period, primarily as a result of lower sales and measures to adapt the organization.

NCC Housing showed an operating profit for the fourth quarter, primarily because of high housing sales. Land sales also contributed to profit. Earnings in the fourth quarter of 2008 were adversely affected by substantial impairment losses on land and completed unsold housing units.

NCC Property Development's earnings were lower than in the year-earlier period. During the fourth quarter, fewer projects were recognized in income than in the year-earlier period. Earnings from supplementary purchase considerations and reversals of rental guarantees were also lower, compared with the year-earlier period.

NCC Roads' earnings were lower than in the year-earlier period, due primarily to lower volumes.

Profit after financial items totaled SEK 642 M (684). Profit after financial items in the year-earlier period included SEK 493 M from the sale of NCC's share in the Polish concession company AWSA. Excluding the gain from AWSA, profit after financial items improved somewhat compared with the yearearlier period, due to lower net indebtedness.

Profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 463 M (536).

Full-year period, January-December 2009

Operating profit amounted to SEK 2,150 M (2,219). Earnings in the preceding year were affected by impairment losses on land and completed unsold housing units, as well as restructuring costs. Together, these items totaled SEK 741 M, of which impairment losses of land and completed unsold housing units accounted for SEK 537 M and restructuring costs for SEK 204 M. In 2009, impairment losses of land and completed unsold housing units amounted to SEK 192 M. Exchange-rate changes had a marginal impact on operating profit, compared with the preceding year. The decline, compared with 2009, was primarily due to the first quarter, when earnings were affected by weaker conditions in the housing market, lower profit from property sales and a weak start for NCC Roads.

Although NCC Construction Sweden's earnings declined due to lower sales, the operating margin was in line with 2009. NCC Construction Denmark reported lower operating profit during the year due to

reduced sales. NCC Construction Finland's earnings deteriorated because of lower sales and a weak market in the Baltic region. NCC Construction Norway's operating profit declined due to lower sales, although its operating margin increased.

Despite favorable housing sales, NCC Housing reported an operating loss for 2009. Earnings were affected by price reductions for housing, which were implemented to stimulate sales of housing units in the submarkets with the greatest exposure to competition.

NCC Property Development's earnings were lower than in 2009, because earnings from property sales and supplementary purchase considerations declined, as did reversals of rental guarantees.

NCC Road's earnings declined due to lower volumes, compared with 2009, and to a competitionimpeding fee in Finland of SEK 45 M.

Other items and eliminations totaled SEK 116 M (loss: 53). The increase in this item was primarily attributable to higher sales of housing units and properties, which enabled reversals of sales-rate eliminations and inter-company profit amounting to profit of SEK 133 M (loss: 91). The item also includes SEK 50 M (0) in expenses for the increased competition-impeding fee and a gain of SEK 70 M from a settlement concerning a project in the discontinued business area NCC International Projects.

Profit after financial items amounted to SEK 1,694 M (2,385). Profit in the preceding year included SEK 493 M from the sale of NCC's share in the Polish concession company AWSA. Excluding the gain from AWSA, net financial income deteriorated, compared with the preceding year, due to the higher average net indebtedness during the first half year, and a higher interest rates in the Baltic region and Russia during the first three quarters of the year.

Profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 1,262 M (1,820). NCC's tax rate for the year was 25 percent (24).

Seasonal effects

NCC Roads' operations and certain operations in NCC Construction units are affected by seasonal variations resulting from cold weather conditions. Accordingly, the first and fourth quarters are generally weaker than the rest of the year.

Cash flow

Most recent quarter, October-December 2009 Cash flow before financing was SEK 1,896 M (1,500).

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital totaled SEK 982 M (324). During the fourth quarter of the preceding year, the share in the Polish concession company AWSA was sold.

Cash flow from changes in working capital amounted to SEK 974 M (1,005). Lower investments in property projects and increased sales of housing projects were offset by a reduction in current interest-free liabilities in NCC Housing due to fewer projects in progress.

Cash flow from investing activities was a negative SEK 61 M (positive: 171). The sale of AWSA increased preceding years cash flow by SEK 493 M.

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to a negative SEK 1,412 M (negative: 698).

Full-year period, January-September 2009 Cash flow before financing totaled SEK 2,837 M (negative: 178).

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital totaled SEK 2,499 M (1,856). Earnings were lower than in 2009 but this was offset by non-cash items, which increased, primarily as a result of the strengthened Swedish currency.

Cash flow from changes in working capital amounted to SEK 819 M (negative: 1,728). Lower investments, primarily in housing projects, resulted in a positive cash flow from changes in working capital. A decrease in interest-free financing within NCC Housing had a negative impact on cash flow.

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to a negative SEK 481 M (negative: 306). Cash flow in the preceding year was affected favorably by the sale of NCC's share in the Polish concession company AWSA.

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to a negative SEK 2,827 M (positive: 298).

Cash and cash equivalents, including short-term investments with a maturity period exceeding three months, totaled SEK 2,117 M (2,048).

Net indebtedness (interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents less interesting-bearing receivables) amounted to SEK 754 M (3,207) on December 31; see also Note 5 Specification of net indebtedness. On September 30, net indebtedness totaled SEK 2,654 M. The maturity period for interestbearing liabilities was 47 (24) months at the year-end. On December 31, NCC's unutilized committed lines of credit amounted to SEK 4,307 M (4,884), with an average remaining maturity period of 26 (32) months.

Significant risks and uncertainties

Group

In the 2008 Annual Report (pages 39-42), an account is made of the risks to which NCC is exposed. The description of risks reported there remains relevant.

Since the recognition of certain items is based on estimates and assessments, such items are subject to uncertainty. The market situation, which was very unsecure in the beginning of the year, has been strengthened somewhat but affects especially the value of land held for future development and for ongoing property development and housing projects. These are recognized based on existing assumptions, which are currently difficult to assess, concerning, for example, sales prices, production costs, land prices, rent levels, required yields and the timing of the start of production and/or sales. NCC continuously monitors market trends and regularly tests the assumptions that have been made.

Parent Company

Significant risks and uncertainties for the Parent Company are identical to those of the Group, as described above.

Cartel proceses

On May 28, 2009, the Swedish Market Court ordered NCC to pay competition-impeding damages of SEK 200 M. NCC had posted a provision of SEK 150 M in the accounts for 2007 to cover the fee. Since the fee

was raised, SEK 50 M was charged against earnings for the second quarter of 2009. The verdict of the Swedish Market Court cannot be appealed.

The Supreme Administrative Court of Finland ordered NCC Roads Oy and the half-owned NCC company VLT Trading Oy, formerly Valtatie Oy, to pay an administrative fee of approximately SEK 70 M for violations of the Finnish Competition Act. An amount of SEK 25 M had already been charged against NCC's earnings in the fourth quarter of 2007 to cover the fees to be paid by NCC and the half-owned NCC company VLT. The remaining fee of approximately SEK 45 million was charged against earnings in the third quarter of 2009. The verdict of the Supreme Administrative Court cannot be appealed.

NCC has received claims for damages from a number of municipalities in Sweden and Finland, as well as the Finnish Road Administration. The issue of damages will be heard in general courts of law.

Purchase and sale of treasury shares

No shares were repurchased during 2009. The company holds 21,138 Series B treasury shares. Excluding these shares, the number of shares outstanding amounts to 108,414,684.

Dividend proposal

The Board of Directors proposes a dividend of SEK 6.00 (4.00) per share. The proposed record date is April 19, 2010.

Annual General Meetintg 2010

NCC's Annual General Meeting will be held at Vinterträdgården, Grand Hôtel Royal´s entrance hall on Stallgatan in Stockholm, on April 14, 2010.

Notes

Note 1. Accounting policies

This year-end report was compiled in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The year-end report was also compiled in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the interpretations of applicable financial standards, International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as they have been approved by the EU.

The year-end report was prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies and methods of calculation as the 2008 Annual Report (Note 1, pages 54-64), with the exception of the policies described below.

New accounting policies for 2009

Revised IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements is applied from January 1, 2009. One of the amendments is that income and expenses that were previously recognized directly in shareholders' equity are now recognized in the Statement of comprehensive income in conjunction with the income statement. New designations for the financial statements may be used, although this is not compulsory. NCC has chosen to retain the old designations.

Revised IAS 23 Borrowing Costs is applied from January 1, 2009. Borrowing costs are now capitalized for projects that take a substantial period of time to prepare for use and that were initiated after January 1, 2009. The change to IAS 23 had a marginal impact during the quarter and during the entire year.

IFRS 8 Operating Segments is applied from January 1, 2009. The new business area NCC Housing is a segment in this reporting. As a result of the new segment, changes are also made in the former Construction business areas. Comparative figures for 2008 have been changed due to the new structure. Refer also to Note 6 Segment reporting.

New accounting policies as of January 1, 2010

As of January 1, 2010, NCC will apply IFRIC 15, Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate. As a result, sales of housing projects as of 2010 will essentially not be recognized in profit until the date of transfer of the housing unit to the end customer, unlike today, when profit is recognized in pace with completion and sale. Due to this amendment, the date at which revenues and profit from the sale of housing projects is recognized will be deferred, normally by approximately one to two years, compared with the current policies.

Similarly, the introduction of IFRIC 15 will affect NCC's recognition of assets and liabilities. The most significant change will be that, in contrast to the current situation, unsold housing units in Swedish tenant owner associations and Finnish housing companies will be recognized in NCC's balance sheet, which will primarily affect interest-bearing liabilities. This will also entail an amendment to NCC's key figures, primarily capital employed, the equity/assets ratio and indebtedness. Accordingly, NCC's financial objectives will be revised.

Although NCC Housing is the segment of NCC's account that will be mainly affected by this amendment, minor changes will also arise in NCC Property Development and in the Construction units.

A report on the effects of IFRIC 15 will be published prior to the disclosure of the interim report for the first quarter of 2010. Comparative figures for 2009 will also be remeasured in accordance with IFRIC 15 (pro forma).

1) Impairment losses on goodwill pertains to subsidiaries whose value in use proves to be lower than the carrying value following impairment testing. The residual value of goodwill is subject to impairment testing annually and whenever indications of a change in value arise. The reasons for reporting impairment losses could include changed market conditions or return requirements that result in a lower recoverable value.
