Barratt Redrow (LON:BTRW – Get Free Report) released its quarterly earnings data on Wednesday. The company reported GBX 26.10 EPS for the quarter, Digital Look Earnings reports. Barratt Redrow had a net margin of 3.60% and a return on equity of 2.73%.
Here are the key takeaways from Barratt Redrow’s conference call:
- FY 2027 completion guidance was maintained at 17,500–17,900 homes, supported by resilient underlying reservations and a 6% increase in the forward sales position. However, average outlet guidance was reduced to approximately 405 because of delays in planning approvals.
- The Redrow integration is complete, with the full £100 million cost-synergy target confirmed. The company expects the annual profit-and-loss contribution from synergies to rise to approximately £95 million in FY 2027, while dual- and triple-branded developments are showing encouraging sales rates.
- Adjusted pre-tax profit fell to £572.8 million, while the adjusted operating margin declined to 9.9% as softer underlying pricing, higher incentives, and build-cost inflation outweighed volume growth. Build-cost inflation is expected to run at 3%–4% in FY 2027.
- The balance sheet strengthened to a £61.4 million net surplus, and the company plans total FY 2027 capital returns of £400 million, including £386 million through share buybacks. Net cash at FY 2027 year-end is expected to be £400 million–£500 million, subject to land activity.
- Legacy building-safety obligations remain a significant cash burden, with a total provision of £1.05 billion and expected direct remediation and fund payments of approximately £300 million in FY 2027 and £450 million in FY 2028. The embedded land-bank gross margin also fell to 17.3% amid weaker pricing, cost inflation, and increased incentives.
