Over the past few years, we have expanded our project portfolio and geographic footprint considerably: we are building new projects in five promising regional markets, and in May 2022 we completed a lucrative deal to acquire YIT Russia. Thanks to intense organic and inorganic growth, we were able to deliver a record amount of real estate by the end of the year, including in new regions – Kazan, Ekaterinburg and the Sverdlovsk region. We expect our efforts to improve business efficiency in our key markets and our successful launch in regions beyond Moscow and St Petersburg to provide the impetus for further expansion and to enable us to achieve our ambitious strategic goals.”
