The level of activity in the group is high. So far this year, the group has sold
13 per cent more homes and started construction of 75 per cent more units than
in the same period of last year. At the end of the quarter, Selvaag Bolig had 1
201 homes under construction with a total sales value of NOK 6.2 billion. 76 per
cent of these homes were sold at the end of the quarter.
“The company has been little influenced by the pandemic and activity is high.
Sales so far this year have been good despite the summer being quiet, and
construction has progressed according to plans. Profitability in the projects is
good, and we have been able to start construction of 424 homes so far this year.
This is better than we expected at the beginning of the year,” says CEO Sverre
Molvik.
“We have a solid portfolio of projects in growth regions. Our strong market
position and high activity will contribute to the company growing going forward.
At the end of the third quarter, we had roughly 450 homes for sale, and we have
planned to start selling more than 500 homes in Q4 and Q1. If housing demand
continues at current levels, it means that our production volume could increase
in coming quarters.”
During the first nine months of the year, Selvaag Bolig has sold homes for more
than NOK 3 billion.

- Units sold are sales contracts entered into with customers pursuant to the
Norwegian Housing Construction Act. In accordance with the IFRS, they are
recognised as income on delivery. Net sales include Selvaag Bolig’s share of
joint venture projects. Gross sales include all homes in joint venture projects.
** Pursuant to the IFRS, all profit is recognised when the homes are delivered
to the buyer. Profit pursuant to the IFRS accordingly derives primarily from
homes which began to be built roughly two years ago.
*** The accounts pursuant to Norwegian generally accepted accounting principles
(NGAAP) utilise the percentage of completion method. This means that profits are
recognised on the basis of construction progress and sales in the projects. That
presents ongoing value creation in the company.
