In the housebuilding sector, Glenveagh anticipates completing 1,600 homes, with an average selling price expected to exceed €375,000. The company also aims for a gross margin, which is the difference between sales and production costs, of over 21%. This suggests that they expect to maintain healthy profitability in their core business.
Partnerships and Overall Projections#
For its partnerships division, Glenveagh projects a mid-teen gross margin, with an average annual gross profit of at least €60 million. Overall, the company expects to complete 2,750 units, generate €45 million from planned land sales, and achieve earnings per share of 21 cents. Notably, 78% of the planned deliveries for 2026 are already accounted for in their order book.
Future Cash Generation and Share Buyback#
Glenveagh has indicated that a significant portion of its construction costs for the year is already secured, with no changes to its margin guidance. Management expects earnings to be stronger in the second half of 2026, as more units are delivered. The company also announced a €25 million share buyback program, which is expected to continue until around May. This move is intended to enhance shareholder value while supporting future investments.
