"We are pleased with the achieved results in 2021. Our sales increased to RUB 96bn despite significant changes to the mortgage rate subsidy programme and rising interest rates in the second half of the year.

In St. Petersburg, our key city of presence, we optimized our offering and increased the share of sales in higher price segments. Sales in business class increased by 7% in square meters due to the excellent results of the Morskaya Embankment residential complex, while the launch of the new Neva Residence residential complex allowed us to almost triple the results in square meters of our elite segment.

Last year, we also replenished the land bank with new quality projects. In particular, we have strengthened our position in Moscow by acquiring the Wave business class project at Borisovskiye Prudy, as well as a new project in elite segment located in Soymonovsky proezd.

In St. Petersburg, among our valuable acquisitions were the territories of the Sevkabel and Liviz plants for the subsequent sale of business class projects. All in all, we maintain our leading position in the market and look forward into the future with confidence".
