Changed accounting principles for Swedish tenant-owned housing associations
As of fiscal year 2020 Peab consolidates projects with Swedish tenant-owned housing associations at the time the final homebuyers take possession of their apartments. This means that Peab recognizes the projects on the balance sheet as work-in-progress under the asset item project development properties, and as interest-bearing liabilities. Revenue and costs for the projects will be recognized as homebuyers take possession of their apartments. Costs for loans are included in the acquisition value of the buildings. In conjuncture with this change Peab now recognizes all our own developed housing projects in Sweden, Norway and Finland according to the completion method. According to previous principles Peab did not consolidate projects with Swedish tenant-owned housing associations from the time land transfer and turnkey contracts were signed, and revenue and expenses were recognized over time as the projects were successively completed.

Annehem Fastigheter
In February 2020 Peab’s Board proposed to the AGM, in addition to the ordinary dividend, an extra distribution of all the shares in a newly founded company, Annehem Fastigheter, containing all Peab’s wholly owned, fully developed commercial properties. As a result of the spread of the coronavirus, its effects on external circumstances and on financial markets, Peab’s Board decided to withdraw the proposal to the AGM. The Board intends to summon an Extraordinary General Meeting to decide on distribution of the real estate company when the situation has stabilized and conditions are more favorable.
As of the Board’s decision in February 2020 Annehem Fastigheter’s assets and liabilities are classified as assets held for value transfer to owners. These assets and liabilities are recognized as a separate item as current assets respectively current liabilities on the balance sheet. The comparative year’s corresponding assets and liabilities have not been reclassified.
Annehem Fastigheter is not recognized as a separate item as discontinued operations in the Group income statement since it previously only made up a small part of operations in business area Project Development.
Annehem Fastigheter is reported as a separate unit outside of segment reporting.
Differences in segment reporting och reporting according to IFRS
The Group is reported in the four business areas Construction, Civil Engineering, Industry and Project Development. The business areas are also operating segments. Segment reporting is the model Peab believes best describes Peab’s business regarding both internal steering and risk profile, and it is also how the Board and executive management follow operations.
For Peab’s construction contract businesses, Construction and Civil Engineering, revenue and profit are recognized over time in both segment reporting och reporting according to IFRS. For business area Industry revenue and profit are recognized both over time and at a certain point in time, and reporting is the same in both segment reporting och reporting according to IFRS. For business area Project Development in segment reporting within the unit Housing Development revenue and expenses are recognized over time as the projects are successively completed. This applies to Swedish tenant-owned housing associations and own single homes, Norwegian condominiums and share housing and Finnish residential limited companies. In reporting according to IFRS, housing projects are recognized when the final homebuyers take possession of their apartments. In business area Project Development and the unit Property Development revenue and profit are recognized at a certain point in time in both segment reporting och reporting according to IFRS.
Group functions are reported in addition to the business areas and consist of central companies, certain subsidiaries and other holdings. Central companies consist primarily of the parent company Peab AB, Peab Finans AB and Peab Support (Shared Service Center). There is no difference in segment reporting och reporting according to IFRS regarding Group functions.
Reporting on internal projects between business areas Construction and Project Development
Business area Construction recognizes revenue and profit referring to the construction contract part of our own housing developments, rental project developments and other property development projects for business area Project Development. Recognition takes place over time as the projects are completed. Business area Project Development recognizes revenue for both contract construction and the developer part of our own housing projects but the recognized profit consists of the profit in the developer part. Both revenue and profit are recognized in segment reporting in business area Project Development operations over time while in reporting according to IFRS they are recognized at a certain point in time, in other words when the homebuyers take possession of their homes.
Reporting on property projects on our own balance sheet
The underlying sales value of property projects on our own balance sheet, recognized as project and development property, that are sold in the form of a company via shares, is recognized as revenue and the book value on the balance sheet is recognized as an expense. When property projects recognized as operations property or investment property are divested the net effect on profit is recognized as other operating income or other operating cost. Recognition of property projects is the same in both segment reporting och reporting according to IFRS.
IFRS 16, additional leases
In segment reporting for all business areas leasing fees are recognized in operating profit as a cost linearly over the leasing period for IFRS 16, additional leases (previously operational leasing). Application of IFRS 16 for additional leases in reporting according to IFRS is only given as a total for the Group.
Financial key ratios in segment reporting
Financial key ratios such as capital employed, the equity/assets ratio, net debt, debt/equity ratio and earnings per share are presented in segment reporting with consideration taken to the above prerequisites. Net debt in segment reporting includes the unsold portion of housing projects.
