CEO comment

We delivered solid results in the second quarter. Highlights include strong performance in Construction, five properties divested by Commercial Property Development, and one landmark building acquired for our Investment Properties portfolio.

Construction had a good second quarter. The US operations, currently half of sales, lead revenue growth and margin delivery for the business stream. In the Nordics and Europe, we remain disciplined in bidding activities. Continuously monitoring pipelines, actively adjusting costs and rightsizing organizations facing weaker market conditions, enabled a solid margin delivery. Order intake was strong, resulting in a rolling 12-month book-tobuild well above 100 percent and a record high order backlog. Large infrastructure projects with longer execution periods are extending the maturity profile of the order backlog.

In Residential Development, the Nordic housing market is slowly recovering and the number of sold homes in our operations increased compared to the same period last year. Profitability remains lower than normal and BoKlok is negatively impacting operating income in the quarter, while the Central European operation continues to deliver strong results. We remain selective with new project starts.

In Commercial Property Development a gradual improvement of the real estate investor markets in the Nordics and Central Europe resulted in five divestments, four external and one internal, in the second quarter. These deals demonstrate the demand for our high-quality properties, but markets are recovering at different paces. Leasing was good in the second quarter, with material contribution from all geographies.

We continue to build up the Investment Properties portfolio with the first acquisition recorded in Gothenburg. Citygate is a multi-tenant landmark office building that has achieved the highest level of sustainability certification for LEED and WELL. Our Investment Properties portfolio now consists of six properties that all performed well in the second quarter.

In the second quarter, rolling 12-months carbon emissions from our own operations, scope 1 and 2, came in 58 percent lower than the 2015 benchmark year.

In summary, second quarter performance was solid, both operationally and financially. Our construction project portfolio remains stable, and we stay committed to the strategy that has enabled the current performance. I am pleased to see that property markets are gradually improving, but we are prepared for recovery to take time and markets to stay sensitive to adverse impacts. Going forward, we will keep a robust financial position and continue to adapt to changes in the markets. At the same time, we are staying close to our customers to ensure an attractive offering for them. This approach will continue to drive our long-term performance.

Market outlook, next 12 months

The market outlook aims to describe the situation in markets that are relevant for our operations. This applies to segments, sectors and geographies.

  • Very strong market coming 12m Strong market coming 12m Stable market coming 12m

    • Weak market coming 12m Very weak market coming 12m

Construction

The construction market outlook is strong for the US, both for the building and civil infrastructure segments. The latter is boosted by federal funding programs directed to investments in infrastructure, such as rails, roads and bridges. In the Nordics and Europe, we maintain our view of a mostly stable civil market while our outlook for the building segment is more cautious. Sectors like energy, industry and defense provide opportunities while the private residential and commercial development markets continue to see low volumes of project starts.

Residential Development

The Nordic housing market is gradually improving from very low activity as consumer confidence is increasing. We expect recovery to take time and be difficult to predict, with supply in the secondhand market increasing as market returns and households remaining sensitive to adverse economic impacts. Market conditions for the low-price segment is challenging. The Central European market is solid with good activity both in Poland and Czech Republic.

Commercial Property Development

Reduced macro-economic uncertainty and improved debt markets are expected to gradually improve the real estate investor market. The Nordics and Central Europe will lead the recovery while the US investor market will take more time. We expect large local variations to remain with low demand for certain markets and segments. We observe early positive signals in the US leasing market with increased tenant traction on high quality premises. The expectation of little Grade A office supply being brought to the market in the coming years and increased activity among companies seeking high quality, amenitized offices could stimulate the market going forward.

Occupier demand is polarized, with stronger demand for quality space in buildings with high sustainability standards. Tenants are prioritizing flexibility and move-in ready offices. The market remains competitive, but rents are expected to remain mostly stable.

Estimated market value at completion for the Commercial Property Development portfolio amounted to SEK 54.7 billion at the end of the second quarter, corresponding to an unrealized gain of SEK 4.5 billion. Surplus values have reduced by SEK 0.9 billion, mostly explained by the divestments carried out in the quarter.

During the second quarter, one new project was started, and three projects were completed. One project was handed over to its buyer resulting in a positive cash flow of SEK 0.9 billion. Assets sold but not transferred will have a positive effect on cash flow of SEK 7.8 billion during the years 2024 to 2026, with SEK 1.5 billion during the second half of 2024 and SEK 6.3 billion during 2025-2026.

At the end of the quarter, 19 projects with a total leasable area of 402,000 sq m were ongoing. Of these, 15 were commercial office properties and four were residential rental. The commercial properties were on average 61 percent leased and had a degree of completion of 64 percent. The portfolio of completed projects includes 23 properties with a total leasable area of 441,000 sq m. This portfolio was 77 percent let by the end of the quarter.

Second-quarter leasing came in at 61,000 sq m (78,000), of which residential rentals was 33,000 sq m (0). Over a rolling 12-month period, leasing amounted to 224,000 sq m (204,000), of which residential rentals was 69,000 sq m (0).

Accumulated eliminations of intra-Group Construction profits amounted to SEK -525 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.

Relation between consolidated operating cash flow statement and consolidated cash flow statement

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.
