Veidekke ASA: Sold homes for NOK 2.5 billion in Q1

Veidekke sold 404 residential units in the first quarter of 2019, which is twice

in Norway. Overall, Veidekke has sold homes for NOK 2.5 billion in Q1 2019. The

number of units under construction is 2,808.

Veidekke sold 404 residential units in the first quarter of 2019. In comparison,

Sweden, while they have increased in Norway. The value of the residential units

sold was NOK 2,5 billion, and Veidekke's share was NOK 1,6 billion.

"Residential sales in the quarter are good, with strong sales at Middelthunet at

Majorstuen in Oslo and consistently good sales in Oslo, Trondheim and Stavanger.

In Sweden sales remain stable after an increase in Q4. We perceive good interest

in new homes and are working hard to close every sale. The number of units under

construction in our overall portfolio remains at a high level," says Executive

Vice President Jørgen Wiese Porsmyr.

The number of residential units under construction has increased from the end of

2018, and is currently 2,808 units, of which Veidekke's share is 2,232 units.
