An update from Springfield Properties PLC ( (GB:SPR) ) is now available.

Springfield Properties PLC announced its interim results for the six months ending November 2024, highlighting a strategic focus on reducing debt and capitalizing on land sales. Revenue for the period was £105.6 million, a 13% drop from the previous year, but the company achieved a 90% increase in adjusted profit before tax to £3.8 million due to improved gross margins and cost control. The company entered a significant land sale agreement with Barratt for £64.2 million, expected to accelerate debt reduction and enhance growth opportunities in the North of Scotland. Despite delays in affordable housing projects, confidence is improving post-Scottish Budget, and the company remains optimistic about future housing demand driven by economic growth and infrastructure projects in the region.
