Business Area Construction

Business Area Construction will comprise the contracting work that the Business Area does for both external and internal customers, primarily Business Area Project Development.

Business Area Project Development

Peab is incorporating all housing developments into the former Business Area Property Development, now called Project Development. In other words, the Business Area will comprise all Peab’s development regarding housing and property, including the capital employed connected to project development.

Reporting according to the new business area structure

Up to the third quarter 2013 net sales and operating result were reported with own housing developments as part of Business Area Construction. Net sales and profit were reported according to the percentage of completion method for both the general contractor part and the subcontractor part. Net sales and profit referring to the construction of our own tenancy project developments on our balance sheets were reported in Business Area Construction according to the percentage of completion method but were eliminated in consolidated reporting. When own tenancy project developments were divested the eliminated net sales and profit were returned to consolidated reporting.

As of the fourth quarter 2013 the following changes have been made regarding reporting net sales and profit from our own housing and tenancy project developments:

- Net sales and profit referring to the subcontractor part of our own housing and tenancy project developments are reported, according to the percentage of completion method, in Business Area Construction.

- Both the general contractor part and the subcontractor part of our own housing developments are reported in Business Area Project Development. Reported profit is the result in the general contractor part reported according to the percentage of completion method. Regarding our own tenancy project developments on our balance sheets only capital gains from divestitures will be reported.

- Internal net sales between Business Area Construction and Business Area Project Development regarding the construction cost of own housing developments are eliminated in consolidated reporting. Net sales and profit referring to the subcontractor part of own tenancy project developments in own balance sheets are eliminated in consolidated reporting and returned when a project is divested.
