Overview
Financial overview
Equity research
Although Consti posted good growth figures in Q3 considering market conditions, margins were lower than anticipated. With slight downward revisions to our short-term expectations, we adjust our TP to EUR 11.5 (12.0) but retain our BUY-rating.
Consti's Q3 results were fairly in line with our expectations Net sales in Q3 amounted to EUR 90.8m, slightly above our estimate (Evli EUR 88.9m.), with growth of 5.6% y/y. EBIT amounted to EUR 3.1m, while we had estimated EBIT of EUR 3.5m. The Service business continued to impact on net sales and profitability.
Consti reports its Q3 results on October 24th. We expect the improved backlog to support continued growth, while expecting recovery in profitability from the slightly weaker H1.
Consti’s net sales surpassed our estimates in Q2, yet profitability was weaker than expected due to continued soft performance in service business. Healthy backlog and further self-help in service should support development going forward.
Consti's net sales in Q2 amounted to EUR 84.8m, surpassing our estimate (Evli est. EUR 80.6m.), with growth of 2.3% y/y. EBIT amounted to EUR 2.5m, while we had estimated EBIT of EUR 2.7m. Order backlog grew and remains healthy, in line with our expectations.
Consti’s Q2/2025 figures are due on Friday, July 18. We expect slight sales decline y/y while mix should retain margins at a satisfactory level despite the intense competition. Market conditions continue to be soft, with recovery progressing slowly.
Profitability fell short of our estimates in the seasonally quiet Q1. While the start was not as strong as we forecasted, healthy order intake supports net sales going forward.
Consti's net sales in Q1 amounted to EUR 65.6m, in line with our estimate (Evli est. EUR 65.7m.), with growth of 0.1% y/y. EBIT amounted to EUR -0.1m, while we had estimated EBIT of EUR 0.4m. Profitability was negatively affected by performance in the Service business.
Consti reports its Q1 figures on 25th of April. We expect flat sales in the seasonally quiet quarter, with slightly improved profitability compared to a softer Q1/24. Market should start to improve slowly this year, after two years of stronger volume decline for renovation construction.
Consti’s Q4 was roughly in line with our estimates as net sales were a touch higher and profitability slightly lower than we expected. The outlook indicates limited earnings growth potential for 2025E, yet the valuation doesn’t set the bar high.

CEO Esa Korkeela’s comment
"Our net sales in the third quarter increased by 5.6 percent to EUR 90.8 (86.0) million. Net sales grew strongly in our Housing Companies business area and grew in our Corporations business area but decreased in our Public Sector and Building Technology business areas.
Our operating result for July–September was EUR 3.1 (3.4) million, or 3.5 (3.9) percent of net sales. In the third quarter, projects progressed largely as planned, and our profitability from project business was in line with our expectations. Our profitability in the third quarter was negatively impacted by the prolonged downturn in construction, allocation of resources to tendering and negotiation activities to secure our order backlog, and the continued low level of net sales and profitability in our Service business.
Our balance sheet and liquidity position at the end of the review period were at a good level. Our free cash flow improved compared to the previous year and amounted to EUR 3.4 (1.7) million. Our gearing ratio at the end of the review period was low at 3.8 (7.2) percent.
In July–September, we continued our active yet disciplined tendering activities. We received new orders worth EUR 41.2 (64.8) million during July–September, a decrease of 36.4 percent compared to the reference period. In January–September, new orders totalled EUR 206.4 (191.9) million, an increase of 7.6 percent year-on-year. The tight competitive environment and weak demand continued to affect our order intake in the third quarter as well, but we are satisfied with the overall volume and quality of new orders received during January–September. At the end of the review period, our order backlog declined by 4.2 percent compared to the reference period but remained at a good level of EUR 239.9 (250.4) million.
Our initiatives to enhance operational efficiency continued to focus on ensuring the competitiveness and performance of our business. Overall, we have been reasonably successful in compensating for the effects of the prolonged downturn in the construction sector through improved operational efficiency.
In the third quarter, housing companies and the public sector’s readiness to invest in renovations across our operating areas remained at a reasonable level. The demand for new construction remained weak, and private real estate investment companies continued to be cautious about starting new renovation projects. Competition in the construction and building technology market remained tight. The grounds for a turnaround in construction exist with the slowdown in inflation, the stabilisation of interest rates, and the rise in purchasing power, but the uncertainty in the operating environment weighs on the outlook, and we do not expect a significant improvement in the demand outlook for construction over the next six months.
However, we believe that the prevailing market situation favours a versatile construction and building technology expert like Consti, which has a strong financial position and the ability to deliver a wide range of projects from small service contracts to large construction projects. Supported by our good order backlog, we aim to continue solid performance and focus on implementing our current strategy.”
Operating environment
Construction market 2025–2026
In its business cycle review released in September 2025, the Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries RT estimates that the construction market will grow by 0.8 percent in 2025 compared to the previous year. The volume of renovation is expected to decrease by 0.5 percent in 2025, while new housing construction is expected to increase by 1.0 percent. RT estimates that in 2026, the total volume of construction will increase by 3.5 percent, renovation will grow by 0.5 percent, and new residential construction will grow by 12.0 percent.
The renovation market in general
Renovation is needs-based and thus less sensitive to economic cycles than new construction. However, the steady growth in renovation activity seen over the past 20 years came to an end in 2023, and the decline has continued through 2024 and 2025. Tightened financing conditions for housing companies are slowing down residential renovations, while the weak property market and uncertainty regarding space utilisation are holding back the renovation of commercial premises. Public sector renovation investments are, however, expected to remain at a good level.
According to the September 2025 forecast by the Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries RT, the Finnish construction market is expected to grow only slightly in 2025, starting from a low base. The sharp decline in housing construction is primarily due to the slump in new residential production following an exceptionally strong period of housing construction. New housing construction fell by over 30 percent year-on-year in both 2023 and 2024. The growth forecast for 2025 is 1 percent. In other building construction, the market has also declined, though not as sharply as in new housing construction.
The sharp decline in new construction has meant that more money is currently being spent on residential renovations than on new builds. At the same time, competition for both renovation projects and building technology contracts has intensified noticeably. In 2024, the value of residential renovation construction was just over 9 billion euros, while other renovation construction was worth just under 7 billion euros.
Nearly two-thirds of renovation work is focused on residential buildings, and more than half of this is estimated to be professional renovation. In residential renovations, building technology plays a key role, accounting for about 35 percent of the value of renovations.
In non-residential buildings, in addition to technical age-related repairs, renovations include a great deal of building purpose modifications, such as converting old, underutilized office buildings into hotels or apartments, or improving them to better meet current office needs.
About one-fifth of all renovation is maintenance and upkeep, with a higher-than-average share in non-residential buildings.
According to the Finnish Real Estate Federation’s Renovation Barometer, water and sewer systems remain the top renovation priority for apartment buildings. The next most common renovations are roof and facade repairs, as well as heating system modernisations. The rising cost of district heating in many cities is a key factor driving heating system upgrades.
Renovation activity has also been held back by an oversupply of commercial premises and falling property prices. As the economic situation improves, the oversupply is expected to encourage property owners to improve the competitiveness and rentability of their spaces.
The demand for renovation is supported by the large number of residential buildings that are reaching the age for pipeline renovations. Properties built in the 1970s, which have the largest amount of residential floor space, are now in need of renovation. Additionally, many properties from the 1980s, a significant portion of which are row houses, are also reaching renovation age, with 1980s apartments representing the largest share in terms of quantity.
In addition to building technology renovations, many housing companies have an increasing need for facade repairs, which have often been overshadowed by pipeline renovations for financial reasons. The importance of facade repairs and maintenance continues to grow as winters become increasingly wet. Alongside technical repair needs, expectations for living comfort have risen. The repair needs of commercial spaces are also driven by changing space requirements.
The EU’s Energy Efficiency Directive, which came into force in May 2024, is driving the need for energy renovations. The directive aims to reduce the energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions of buildings. In commercial properties, the demand for energy renovations is also influenced by user requirements – including both financial considerations and environmental certification standards. The need for energy renovations applies to both residential housing companies and various commercial spaces.
Overall, the need for renovation is maintained by both the aging building stock and societal changes such as urbanisation, population aging, changes in working methods and retail, and sustainability goals. Renovation plays a central role in reducing the carbon footprint of the built environment, as the number of new buildings grows by only about one percent per year.
Both new construction and renovations are strongly concentrated in growth centres in Finland.
Outlook for the 2025
Market outlook (updated)
According to the Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries RT, the Finnish construction market is expected to grow by 0.8 percent in 2025 compared with the previous year. New residential construction is expected to increase by 1.0 percent, non-residential construction to decline by 2.0 percent, and renovation construction to decrease by 0.5 percent in 2025.
The demand for new construction remained weak, and private real estate investment companies continued to be cautious about starting new renovation projects. Competition in the construction and building technology market remained tight. The grounds for a turnaround in construction exist with the slowdown in inflation, the stabilisation of interest rates, and the rise in purchasing power, but the uncertainty in the operating environment weighs on the outlook, and Consti does not expect a significant improvement in the demand outlook for construction over the next six months.

Our operating profit for April to June was EUR 2.5 (3.0) million, equivalent to 2.9 (3.6) percent of net sales.
During the second quarter, projects progressed largely as planned, and the profitability of our project business was in line with our expectations. However, our operating profit was negatively impacted by the continued low net sales and profitability levels in our Service business, which we were not yet able to improve to a satisfactory level during the second quarter. Additionally, our profitability in the second quarter was affected by the prolonged downturn in the construction sector, as well as the investments made in tendering and negotiation activities to secure our order backlog. Our balance sheet and liquidity position remained at a good level at the end of the review period.
In April-June, we received new orders worth EUR 105.1 (90.8) million, representing a 15.8 percent increase compared to the reference period, and are satisfied with both the total volume and quality of the orders received despite intense competition. Among the most significant orders in our construction business areas during the second quarter was the renovation and extension of Maunula Primary School and Månsas Primary School, commissioned by the City of Helsinki, as well as the renovation of Kivimäki School in Vantaa, and in the Building Technology business area, the first phase of ventilation and electrical works for the Metso Lokomotion Technology Centre in Tampere. The combined value of these contracts is approximately EUR 47 million. The remaining order intake for April-June consists of several smaller projects evenly distributed across our business areas. Our order backlog at the end of the review period was at a good level, growing by 5.9 percent compared to the reference period, amounting to EUR 276.7 (261.2) million.
Throughout the review period, we continued to implement our strategy and take measures to safeguard our business performance amid the prolonged construction downturn. Our actions focused on tendering activities, improving production efficiency, and achieving an even more consistent performance level in our project deliveries.
In the first half of the year, housing companies and the public sector demonstrated a reasonable readiness to invest in renovations across our operating areas. The demand for new construction remained weak, and private real estate investment companies continued to be cautious about starting new renovation projects. Competition in the construction and building technology market remained tight. We do not expect a significant improvement in construction demand prospects during the second half of 2025.
However, we believe that the prevailing market situation favours a versatile construction and building technology expert like Consti, which has a strong financial position and the ability to deliver a wide range of projects from small service contracts to large construction projects. Supported by our good order backlog, we aim to continue solid performance and focus on implementing our current strategy.”
Operating environment
Construction market 2025–2026
Construction market research institute Euroconstruct estimated in its June 2025 report that the volume for housebuilding construction output will grow by 3.4% in 2025. According to Euroconstruct's forecast, the new construction volume is estimated to grow by around 7.8 percent and the renovation volume to decline by 0.2 percent in 2025.
Euroconstruct’s forecasts were lowered compared to its previous report. In its December 2024 report Euroconstruct estimated that the volume for housebuilding construction output in Finland will grow by 5.3%, the new construction volume by 11.2 percent and the renovation volume by 0.3 percent in 2025. Recovery of the market is slower than expected.
For the year 2026, Euroconstruct predicts that the change in renovation volume will be flat at 0.0 percent (previous forecast was 0.7 percent in December 2024).
According to the report recovery in renovation is slow as both housing companies and consumers are still facing tight economic conditions.
The renovation market in general
Renovation is needs-based and thus less sensitive to economic cycles than new construction. However, the steady growth of renovation over the past 20 years came to a halt in 2023, and the decline continued in 2024. Renovation has been reduced partly by the same reasons as new construction, such as rising interest rates, inflation, and repair costs, as well as increased maintenance costs for properties, such as the rising cost of heating.
In 2024, building construction continued to decline, but the decrease levelled off from the previous year. The sharp decline in building construction is primarily due to the halt in new housing production after an exceptionally intense period of housing construction. Residential new construction decreased by approximately 30 percent for the second consecutive year. In other building construction, the changes have been far less significant.
The sharp drop in new construction has meant that more money is currently being spent on renovating existing homes than on building new ones. At the same time, competition for renovation projects and building technology contracts has intensified significantly. In 2024, the value of residential building renovations remained almost on level with 2023, i.e. around nine billion euros. The value of other renovations was about six billion euros.
Nearly two-thirds of renovation work is focused on residential buildings, and more than half of this is estimated to be professional renovation. In residential renovations, building technology plays a key role, accounting for about 35 percent of the value of renovations.
In non-residential buildings, in addition to technical age-related repairs, renovations include a great deal of building purpose modifications, such as converting old, underutilized office buildings into hotels or apartments, or improving them to better meet current needs.
About one-fifth of all renovation is maintenance and upkeep, with a higher-than-average share in non-residential buildings.
According to the Finnish Real Estate Federation's Renovation Barometer, water and sewer systems remain the top renovation priority for apartment buildings. The next most common renovations are roof and facade repairs, as well as heating system modernisations. The rising cost of district heating in many cities is a key factor driving heating system upgrades.
Renovations of commercial and office spaces have also been postponed due to the rapid rise in costs. In addition, the oversupply of commercial spaces and the decline in property prices have slowed down repairs. As the economic situation improves, the oversupply is expected to encourage property owners to improve the competitiveness and rentability of their spaces.
The demand for renovation is supported by the large number of residential buildings that are reaching the age for pipeline renovations. Properties built in the 1970s, which have the largest amount of residential floor space, are now in need of renovation. Additionally, many properties from the 1980s, a significant portion of which are row houses, are also reaching renovation age, with 1980s apartments representing the largest share in terms of quantity.
In addition to building technology renovations, many housing companies have an increasing need for facade repairs, which have often been overshadowed by pipeline renovations for financial reasons. The importance of facade repairs and maintenance continues to grow as winters become increasingly wet. Alongside technical repair needs, expectations for living comfort have risen. The repair needs of commercial spaces are also driven by changing space requirements.
The EU's Energy Efficiency Directive, which came into force in May 2024, is driving the need for energy renovations. The directive aims to reduce the energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions of buildings. In commercial properties, the demand for energy renovations is also influenced by user requirements – including both financial considerations and environmental certification standards. The need for energy renovations applies to both residential housing companies and various commercial spaces.
Overall, the need for renovation is maintained by both the aging building stock and societal changes such as urbanisation, population aging, changes in working methods and retail, and sustainability goals. Renovation plays a central role in reducing the carbon footprint of the built environment, as the number of new buildings grows by only about one percent per year.
Both new construction and renovations are strongly concentrated in growth centres in Finland.
Outlook for 2025
In 2025, the housebuilding construction output in Finland is estimated to increase by approximately 3.4 percent from the previous year. New construction is predicted to grow by approximately 7.8 percent and renovation to decline by 0.2 percent in 2025.
The weak demand for new construction and private real estate investment companies’ caution in launching new construction projects has continued. Competition in the construction and building technology market has remained intense. The demand outlook for construction is weakened by prolonged economic uncertainty, interest rates, high construction costs, and tightening availability of financing, and Consti does not expect a significant improvement in the demand outlook for construction in the second half of 2025.
Despite the market situation, Consti aims to continue solid performance supported by a good order backlog and focus on implementing the strategy.
Consti estimates that its operating result for 2025 will be in the range of EUR 9–12 million.

CEO Esa Korkeela’s comment
”Our seasonally low net sales for January-March were at the same level as last year, totalling EUR 65.6 (65.5) million. Our net sales grew in the Housing Companies and Building Technology business areas and decreased in the Corporations and Public Sector business areas.
Our operating result for January-March was EUR -0.1 (0.2) million, or -0.2 (0.3) percent of net sales. During the first quarter, projects progressed mostly as planned, and the profitability of our project business was broadly in line with our expectations. Our operating result was negatively impacted by lower-than-expected net sales and profitability in our Service business. Our balance sheet and liquidity position remained strong at the end of the review period.
Our order intake for January-March totalled EUR 60.1 (36.3) million, representing a 65.5 percent increase compared to the reference period. The order intake was positively influenced by new orders in the Housing Companies and Corporations business areas. Our first-quarter order intake did not include any individually large projects but consisted of several smaller-scale projects. Our order backlog remained at a good level at the end of the review period, growing by 0.8 percent compared to the reference period and amounting to EUR 246.4 (244.4) million.
During the review period, we published Consti's first sustainability report in accordance with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), and the implementation of the goals and plans described in the report is underway. In line with our transition plan, our objective is to achieve carbon neutrality in our operations by 2035 and to halve the emissions generated across our value chain by 2050. Our initiatives to improve operational efficiency have focused on safeguarding the competitiveness and performance of our business amid the prolonged downturn in the construction sector.
In the first quarter, the readiness for renovation investments in housing companies and the public sector continued at a reasonable level in our operating areas. Demand for new construction has remained weak, and private real estate investment companies have continued to show caution in launching new construction projects. Competition in the construction and building technology market remained tight. We do not expect a significant improvement in the demand outlook for construction in the first half of 2025.
However, we believe that the prevailing market situation favours a versatile construction and building technology expert like Consti, which has a strong financial position and the ability to deliver diverse projects from small service contracts to large construction projects. Supported by our good order backlog, we aim to continue solid performance and focus on implementing our current strategy.”
Operating environment
Construction market 2025
The Confederation of Finnish Construction Industries CFCI estimates in its April economic review that the construction market as a whole will grow by approximately 4 percent in 2025. According to RT's forecast, the renovation market is expected to grow by about one percent in 2025, and new housing construction is expected to grow by 10 percent.
In its April economic review, RT states that despite pent-up demand and increasing renovation debt, annual growth in renovation activity will remain slow as availability of financing increasingly hinders recovery.
