"Building high quality new homes for our customers has been, and remains our priority, and I am confident we will finish the year as an HBF 5-star housebuilder.
"We completed the transformational acquisition of the Linden Homes and the renamed Vistry Partnerships at the start of this year.
"Integration is well under way and we are fully focused on delivering the clear and significant bene-fits from this exciting combination as quickly as possible."
