Investor update summary
31 Aug, 2026Change in revenue recognition method
Segment reporting will adopt the percentage of completion (POC) method for self-developed projects starting Q1 2026, recognizing revenue throughout construction instead of at completion.
POC provides more timely and predictable financial information, reducing quarterly revenue variance and reflecting market dynamics more quickly.
Financial information will be presented under both IFRS and POC, with reconciliations and restated 2025 figures for comparability.
Segment reporting will focus on POC numbers, while IFRS figures and balance sheet remain at the group level.
The change does not impact group full-year guidance or strategic financial targets for 2025–2029.
Organizational and operational changes
Finnish residential business shifts to a function-based model, centralizing production and quality control.
Internal product development, centralized production, and customer engagement are now distinct organizational elements.
Sales, marketing, and consumer insights are leveraged to improve gross margin and production efficiency.
New structure aims to enhance production efficiency, quality, and sales performance.
Financial implications and illustrative examples
POC impacts timing of revenue recognition but not overall project profitability; after completion, cumulative revenue is the same under both methods.
For 2025, segment revenue for Finland slightly decreases, CEE region sees increased sales and EBIT, and group-level segment reporting shows €1,803 million revenue and €58 million adjusted operating profit.
Group result for 2025 was a net loss of €17 million, with earnings per share at -€0.11.
Capital employed increases by €17 million at end of 2025 under POC, with operative capital employed at €976 million.
