CEO comment

First-quarter Group performance was characterized by strong order intake and lower results in the Construction business stream. In Project Development, divestment volumes were small, but we saw positive momentum in the number of sold homes and leasing was boosted by signing the largest lease in our history.

In Construction, first-quarter result were solid in the Nordics and the USA. Europe was negatively impacted by costs in a ten-year-old project in the UK. We continue to have a good quality Group project portfolio, providing robust results in the seasonally small first quarter. Order intake for the Group was strong with good contributions from Norway and the USA, resulting in the order backlog reaching an historic high.

For Residential Development, the number of sold homes increased in the first quarter, albeit from very low levels. The result was impacted by low volumes in the Nordics and losses in the low-price segment BoKlok. We remain selective with new project starts, prioritizing investment opportunities in our most active markets, Central Europe and Norway.

In Commercial Property Development, no divestments or project starts were recorded in the first quarter. The transaction markets continue to be weak, and we have adjusted market values in the US portfolio in the quarter. We are focused on leasing to best position our assets for disposition into the real estate investor market. Leasing was good in the first quarter, with the record lease signed for The Eight project in Bellevue, Washington state, USA.

Investment Properties performance was stable with solid operational and financial performance in the property portfolio.

Carbon emissions from our own operations, scope 1 and 2, rolling 12 months, came in 58 percent lower than our benchmark year 2015.

Delivering strong performance in Construction and sales in Project Development are our top priorities. We are encouraged by the potential for recovery of the property market but are prepared for it to be a slow process. We have adapted and reduced the size of the organization to remain competitive in the weaker market segments and geographies. The engagement and hard work of all Skanska colleagues are directed to maintaining a robust financial position and executing in line with our commercial direction. The collaborative effort to deliver according to our strategy continues to drive us forward.

Construction

Market outlook for the Construction business stream remains mostly in line with previous expectations. In the USA, federal funding programs are supporting growth in the infrastructure market and the building market has stayed strong for the sectors and segments that are relevant for our operations. The European infrastructure market is mostly stable supported by long-term national investment plans. The building market remains weak for most of our European geographies. A more positive 12-month outlook for the Central European building market is based on improved activity in the residential segment and encouraging signals from the industry.

Commercial Property Development

The real estate investor market has remained muted with few active buyers in the core office segment. Interest-rate cuts and improved access to funding over the coming 12 months could however stimulate the market. Leasing markets in the Nordics and Central Europe are mostly stable. The US leasing market is lagging but some segments and locations are seeing indications of improved activity. Tenants focus on high quality, sustainable premises in good locations to attract and retain employees.

Revenue increased 4 percent and amounted to SEK 36.4 billion (34.9); adjusted for currency effects, revenue increased 5 percent. Operating income increased 26 percent and amounted to SEK 497 M (394); adjusted for currency effects, operating income increased 32 percent. The result is impacted by low divestment volumes in Project Development and costs related to an isolated project in the UK Construction business.

The Central stream totaled SEK -60 M (-159), of which SEK 77 M (72) relate to the PPP portfolio. The comparable period included results from the BoKlok production facility of SEK -43 M, which is reported in the Residential Development stream as of January 1, 2024.

Operating income per segment, rolling 12 months

Net financial items amounted to SEK 225 M (146), following increased interest rates on financial assets.

Income taxes for the period amounted to SEK -197 M (-106), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 27 percent (20). The difference in effective tax rate is mostly explained by changes in the portion of income in markets with a higher tax rate and the amount of tax-exempt transactions.

Cash flow

Group

Operating cash flow from operations Operating cash flow from operations for the period amounted to SEK -4,855 M (-2,322), mainly explained by changes in working capital in Construction and Residential Development. Taxes paid in business operations amounted to SEK -1,229 M (-618), the increase largely explained by tax payment related to the divestment of our ownership of LaGuardia Terminal B in New York, USA last year.

Commercial Property Development assets sold but not transferred will have a positive effect on cash flow of SEK 5.2 billion during 2025-2026, no impact rest of the year 2024.

Operating income for the business stream amounted to SEK 23 M (-314), impacted by low volumes and losses in the low-price concept BoKlok, amounting to SEK -146 M; of this SEK -13 M relates to the BoKlok production facility which was previously reported in the Central stream. Operating margin was 1.1 percent, excluding BoKlok operating margin was 8.9 percent.

In the first quarter, the number of homes sold was 511 (132) and construction started on 459 homes (288). At the end of the quarter, 3,731 homes (December 31, 2023: 4,341) were under construction. Of these, 51 percent (December 31, 2023: 52) were sold. The number of completed unsold homes increased to 772 (December 31, 2023: 549), of which unsold homes in BoKlok totaled 370. The number of unsold completed homes usually increases in times of market uncertainty. In such markets, it is common for sales volumes to fall: homebuyers prefer to buy closer to completion. This allow them to time the sale of their previous home to be closer to the purchase of their new one. Our sales activities are targeting completed or near-to-be-completed homes in order to ensure healthy churn of the portfolio. During the quarter 1,070 (630) homes were completed.

Estimated market value at completion for the Commercial Property Development portfolio amounted to SEK 57.8 billion at the end of the first quarter, corresponding to an unrealized gain of SEK 5.4 billion. Surplus values have been reduced by SEK- 0.6 billion in the US following a negative market development for some projects. The reduction is partly offset by increased values in a couple of projects in the Nordics and Central Europe, and positive currency effects. The net impact in the first quarter totaled SEK -0.3 billion.

During the first quarter, no new projects were started and one project was completed. One project was handed over resulting in a positive cash flow of SEK 0.3 billion. Assets sold but not transferred will have a SEK 5.2 billion positive effect on cash flow during 2025-2026, no impact rest of the year 2024.

At the end of the quarter, 21 projects with a total leaseable area of 451,000 sq m were ongoing. Of these, 16 were commercial office properties and five were residential rental. The commercial properties were on average 58 percent leased and had a degree of completion of 61 percent. The portfolio of completed projects includes 22 properties with a total leaseable area of 483,000 sq m. This portfolio was 73 percent let by the end of the quarter.

First-quarter leasing came in at 70,000 sq m (43,000); of which residential rental was 8,000 sq m (0). Over a rolling 12 months, new leases were signed for 240,000 sq m (175,000); of which residential rental was 36,000 sq m (0).

Accumulated eliminations of intra-Group Construction profits amounted to SEK -589 M, reducing the carrying amount for current asset properties in Commercial Property Development. These eliminations are released at the Group level as each project is divested.

Accounting Principles

For the Group, this interim report has been prepared in compliance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Annual Accounts Act and the Securities Market Act. The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in the interim financial statements as compared with the most recent annual financial statements. For the Parent Company, the interim report has been prepared in compliance with the Annual Accounts Act, the Securities Market Act, and Swedish Financial Reporting Board's Recommendation RFR 2.

The difference between the operating cash flow statement and the summary cash flow statement in compliance with IAS 7 Cash flow Statements, is presented in the Annual and Sustainability Report 2023, Note 35.

Segment and IFRS reporting

Skanska's business streams Construction, Residential Development, Commercial Property Development and Investment Properties represent the Group's operating segments. Tables in this report that refer to segment reporting are shown with a shaded background. In certain cases, the segment reporting differs from the consolidated results presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS.

Construction includes both building construction and civil construction. Revenue and earnings are reported over time for both segment and IFRS reporting.

Residential Development develops residential projects for immediate sale. Homes are adapted to selected customer categories. The units are responsible for planning and selling the projects. The related construction assignments are performed by Skanska's construction units in the Construction segment in each market. In the segment reporting, Residential Development recognizes revenue and earnings when contracts are signed for the sale of homes. In the IFRS reporting, revenue is instead recognized when the buyer takes possession of the home.

Commercial Property Development initiates, develops, leases and divests commercial property projects. In most markets the construction assignments are performed by Skanska's Construction segment. In the segment reporting, Commercial Property Development recognizes revenue and earnings when contracts are signed for the sale of the properties. In the IFRS reporting, revenue is instead recognized when the buyer takes possession of the property. As of 2023, residential rental projects in Sweden have been reallocated and included in the multi-family rental portfolio in the Commercial Property Development business stream. Historical financial information from 2021 and 2022 has been restated to reflect this reallocation.

Investment Properties owns properties for the purpose of earning rentals and for capital appreciation. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Change in value on investment properties is recognized each quarter both according to segment reporting and IFRS.

Joint ventures are reported under the proportional method in the segment reporting of Residential Development, whereas all other streams/ operating segments apply the equity method.

Intra-Group pricing between operating segments occurs on market terms.

The parent company in a Swedish group prepares its accounts in compliance with the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's Recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities ("RFR 2"). According to RFR 2, the annual accounts of the legal entity must apply IFRS as far as this is possible within the framework of the Annual Accounts Act and considering the connection between accounting and taxation.

Starting from January 1, 2024, the BoKlok production facility is reported in the Residential Development stream. Previously it was reported in the Central stream.
