Ton Hillen, CEO Heijmans: “For the first time in a number of years, all segments made a positive contribution to our operating result. The strong demand for homes translated into a significant improvement in profit for our property development and residential building operations. Continuing to meet the great demand for homes in the future will require direction at a national level and will have to include the allocation of new development locations both in and outside cities. In our non-residential activities, we are starting to see the results of our revised strategy. The selective acquisition policy, combined with the recovering market, is driving growth with a moderate risk profile. At Infra, the majority of our operations performed in line with expectations. However, the predictability of projects and a selective acquisition policy remain exceedingly important and we are continuing to focus fully on those objectives in 2019. A healthy infra sector with successful projects requires a more balanced distribution of the risks between principal and contractor, something we are discussing on a number of areas.”  * Result discontinued operations 2017: € 29 million, this is including the one off book profit sale foreign operations of € 31 million.
