Impairment losses for projects in Norway

The management teams of the new business areas NCC Building and NCC
Infrastructure have analyzed NCC’s Norwegian construction and civil engineering
operations, which has resulted in the recognition of impairment losses totaling
SEK 290 million in the third quarter. NCC’s operating profit for the third
quarter is estimated at SEK 503 million (720) for the Group, net sales at SEK
13.6 billion (13.3) and orders received at SEK 12.6 billion (10.1).
NCC’s Norwegian construction and civil engineering operations, which account for
just over 11 percent of NCC’s sales, have demonstrated poor profitability for a
number of years. As of January 1, 2016, NCC’s construction and civil engineering
operations have been reorganized into two Nordic business areas: NCC Building
and NCC Infrastructure. The management teams of the new business areas have now
analyzed the Norwegian parts of the operations, which has resulted in the
recognition of impairment losses for projects in the third quarter. The
operating result for these business areas is thereby estimated to stand at close
to zero in the quarter.

Inadequate project management is the underlying reason for the impairment
losses, which largely relate to completed and delivered projects. Within the
scope of the new business area structure, NCC has allocated resources to
strengthen project management activities in Norway.

“I can say that our turnaround in Norway is taking longer than expected, but we
now have the right organization and processes in place. We have also allocated
resources to improve project management in Norway. In addition, we are also
currently reviewing the Group’s overhead costs. However, orders received and the
market outlook were some of the bright spots in the quarter. Orders received for
NCC increased by 25 percent in the third quarter compared with the year-earlier
period,” says Peter Wågström, President and CEO of NCC.
