Andrey Molchanov, CEO of PJSC LSR Group, commented:
«We are pleased with LSR Group’s performance in FY 2019. A planned reduction in development sales volumes due to regulatory uncertainties that persisted for the first half of the year was partially compensated with an increase in price of 15% YoY, thereby improving Group’s profitability margins and demonstrating strength of our market offering. Sales in RUB terms decreased only by 9% YoY despite an exceptionally strong 2018.
Moscowdevelopment business unit demonstrated strong sales performance, with sales up 13% YoY in RUB terms due to our well-structured sales portfolio. The price increased by 19% YoY. Our business class segment in the Moscow market performed exceptionally well, with sales up 51% in RUB terms led by our flagship project Zilart, as well the increasingly popular Leningradka 58. Both of our large-scale projects — business class residential complex Zilart and mass-market residential complex Luchi have become leaders in sales volumes in 2019 within their respective market segments across the territory of Old Moscow.
Having secured strong access to liquidity, we are very pleased with the Group’s transition to the new market environment defined by the changes in housing legislation.
Looking ahead, we believe we are well positioned to execute on our strategy and maintain our leading market positions in key regions of presence.»
