PREVIEW OF OPERATIONAL RESULTS
4Q17 and 2017

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - São Paulo, February 22, 2018 – Gafisa S.A. (B3: GFSA3; NYSE: GFA), one of Brazil’s leading diversified homebuilders focused on the upper-middle and high-income segments, announced today operational results for the fourth quarter and year of 2017. The operating results are preliminary and subject to review by the auditors.

The fourth quarter encapsulates Gafisa’s strategy for 2017: focus on inventory sales, with few and judicious launches in the São Paulo residential segment. The only launch in this is quarter was Moov Estação Brás (São Paulo/SP), a project with total PSV of R$90.1 million, that had only one of its two towers available for sale in the 4Q17, with a PSV of R$46.9 million. The decrease of launches impacted the gross sales of the quarter, which were down 50.5% and 52.2% over the 3Q17 and 4Q16, respectively. The dissolutions decreased 4.6% over the 4Q16 but still increased 13.1% over the 3Q17, representing potential uncertainties for the sector. As consequence of these factors, net sales reached R$121.9 million, representing reductions of 65%.7 and 65.8% over 3Q17 and 4Q16, respectively, with quarterly PSV of 7.4%.
