COPENHAGEN, May 3 (Reuters) - Denmark's biggest lender Danske Bank on Friday reported first-quarter net profit in line with expectations and kept its full-year guidance unchanged despite a high level of macroeconomic uncertainty.

First-quarter net profit rose to 5.6 billion Danish crowns ($806.21 million) from 5.2 billion a year earlier, compared with the 5.6 billion average forecast by analysts in a poll provided by the bank.

"It is still very much a mixed picture with many areas of the Nordic economies performing well, but we also see businesses facing headwinds, for example within construction," CEO Carsten Egeriis said in a statement.
