Revenue is up 38% to £75.7m over the same time period last year with operating profit up 75% to £6.4m.
There will be an interim dividend of 1.2p per share, an increase of 20% compared with the interim dividend for 2017/18 (H1 2017/18: 1.0p).
Completion of new homes increased by 35.4% to 379 compared to 280 last year.
Sandy Adam, Executive Chairman of Springfield Properties, said: “In announcing this set of interim results, I am pleased to be reporting a further period of strong growth for Springfield. We have increased revenue from both private and affordable existing sites, and have done this at a faster rate than for the same period last year. Looking forward, we have entered the second half of the year with a strong order book of contracted revenues and a greater geographic reach across Scotland. With the sustained market drivers showing no sign of abating, Springfield is in a stronger position than ever to deliver many of the new private and affordable homes needed in Scotland.”
Innes Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Springfield Properties, commented: “Springfield made great progress during the first half of the year, with sales increasing in both of our divisions and total completions up 35% at 379 new homes. Our investment last year in the acquisition of Dawn Homes and our four high calibre Managing Directors has greatly strengthened our business. We are benefiting from their complementary skillsets and experience, and we’re very pleased that all of the great people at Dawn have chosen to remain with the Group. This also gives us confidence that our recent acquisition of Walker Group, another established company with a strong product and reputation, will be an equal success. This bulk addition to our land bank also gives us very good visibility in our three-year projections. We look forward to delivering on our targets and continuing to grow our business.”
