Posted: Thu, 05 Sep 2024 09:00

Solid delivery in a challenging market, well positioned for FY25.

Commenting on the full year results David Thomas, Chief Executive of Barratt Developments PLC said:

"We are pleased to have delivered total home completions at the upper end of our expectations for the year, despite the challenging backdrop. I am grateful to our skilled and dedicated teams of employees, sub-contractors and suppliers for continuing to deliver high quality homes that people want to live in. We were delighted to complete the acquisition of Redrow plc in August and are now working constructively with the CMA to finalise competition clearance so that we can begin the integration process.

Whilst demand continues to be sensitive to mortgage affordability, and reduced land buying activity during the past two years has had a near-term impact on the number of outlets we are operating from, we are well-positioned to meet the strong underlying demand for new homes of all tenures in the UK. We welcome the Government's proposed reforms of the planning system as one of the key levers to increase housebuilding, drive economic growth and tackle the chronic undersupply of high-quality, sustainable homes."
