Andrey Molchanov, CEO of PJSC LSR Group, commented:

«LSR Group continues to demonstrate strength of its business and its market position as Russia’s leading real estate developer.

Our sound financial position was further supported by strong operating cash flow generation of RUB 24.7 billion, driven by solid sales and cash collections.

With a substantial cash balance of RUB 66.9 billion, and the ability to develop a significant part of our current land bank without switching to escrow-backed sales, we secured a smooth transition to new legislative environment and expect the LSR Group to profit from new opportunities in light of ongoing market consolidation.

I am delighted to report a 15% increase in the sqm value of our land bank, now strengthened with new acquisitions that help further diversify and support our market offering.

We entered 2020 with optimism, clarity and financial strength while continuing to execute our strategy, thus securing leading market position in our key segments and regions.»
