Lendlease has three segments: investments, development, and construction. Lendlease operates locally and overseas across all three segments. However, in the future, its development and construction businesses will be solely in Australia, while the investment management platform will maintain exposure to international real estate assets. Historically, the investments segment contributed about one-third of group EBITDA, development around half, and construction the remaining. The group is targeting an earnings mix between investments/development/construction of 50%/35%/15% post the current restructure, shifting more weights to the defensive and higher margin investments segment. Sales proceeds from asset divestments will primarily be used to repay debt and buy back securities.
