  • The number of housing units sold was 303 (795)
  • The number of production starts was 334 (410)

  • On 2 February 2023, Bonava announced a revision of its financial targets. A new target is that the operating margin is to amount to at least 10 per cent from 2026. Furthermore, the net debt/equity ratio will not exceed 1.0x. See further page 6 of the report.

 

*Recognised revenue, profit and key figures pertain to continuing operations, excluding St. Petersburg, which is reported as discontinued operations starting the third quarter 2022.

 

President and CEO Peter Wallin comments:
“The forecast low business volume in the first quarter was reduced further as completion of a number of projects was postponed to the second quarter. The rate of sales is also significantly lower than the preceding year. Low net sales are putting pressure on operating profit despite measures taken to reduce costs having the expected effect, and that the margin in delivered projects is on a level with previous expectations. The market is still challenging, even if certain regions are showing early signs of improvement.”
