Full-year profits at Galliford Try – which has had an offer from Bovis Homes to buy its housing arm – have fallen to £104.7m from £143.7m.
Graham Prothero, chief executive, said: “The potential combination of our Linden Homes and partnerships businesses with Bovis Homes represents a superb opportunity, enhancing the prospects for all three of our businesses to thrive as strategically focused and well-financed operations with excellent opportunities for growth.
“The transaction allows construction to continue trading as a standalone well capitalised business.
“Construction’s result for the year has been impacted by challenges with both legacy and some current projects and by the restructure, which is now complete.”
