NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Aug. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Landsea Homes Corporation (Nasdaq: LSEA) (“Landsea Homes” or the “Company”), a publicly traded homebuilder, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. For the quarter, the Company reported pretax net income of $23.2 million, and net income of $14.9 million, or $0.34 per share. Prior year reported pretax net income was $14.9 million with net income of $10.7 million, or $0.23 per share. Reported adjusted net income was $30.8 million or $0.71 per share.

Management Commentary

“Landsea Homes continued to deliver on its goals of targeted market share expansion and profit growth in the second quarter of 2022,” said John Ho, Chief Executive Officer of Landsea Homes. “New home deliveries increased 35% year-over-year and average selling prices rose 9%, resulting in top line growth of 46% for the quarter. Our home sales gross margin expanded 430 basis-points year-over-year to 21.3% on a GAAP basis, or 560 basis points to 29.1% on a fully adjusted basis, reflecting the strong price appreciation we’ve experienced at our communities over the past several quarters.”

Mr. Ho continued, “Net new orders for the quarter grew 63% compared to last year, largely driven by a significant increase in active selling communities. Sales absorptions averaged 3.3 homes per community per month for the quarter, though we did experience a slowdown in order activity as the quarter progressed, as the combination of higher mortgage rates and lower consumer confidence began to take a toll on affordability and buyer psychology. We have adjusted our sales efforts to reflect the change in buyer sentiment and believe we are well positioned to navigate this more challenging sales environment thanks to our market positioning and the appeal of our High Performance Homes.”

Mr. Ho concluded, “Landsea Homes ended the second quarter with a backlog of over $900 million, which we believe puts us in a great position to continue to deliver strong operational profitability. Additionally, during the quarter we were able to return $36.2 million to our shareholders through purchasing 5.1 million shares of our stock. At quarter end, we had $10 million remaining on our share repurchase program authorization. Finally, our low leverage, ample liquidity and land light strategy give us the flexibility to operate from a position of strength during this period of uncertainty in the market.”

Operating Results

Total revenue increased 47.3% to $368.7 million compared to $250.3 million in the second quarter of 2021 primarily driven by increases in average sales price across our divisions and the addition of our Florida and New York operations.

Total homes delivered increased 35% to 572 homes at an average sales price of $613,000 compared to 425 homes delivered at an average sales price of $564,000 in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in deliveries was primarily due to the acquisition of Hanover Family Builders (“Hanover”) in the first quarter of 2022.

Net new home orders were 538 homes with a dollar value of $322.5 million, an average sales price of $599,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 3.3 sales per active community. This compares to 330 homes with a dollar value of $207.3 million, an average sales price of $628,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 3.5 sales per active community in the prior year period. The increase in new home orders was due to the Hanover acquisition in the first quarter of 2022.

Total homes in backlog increased 31% to 1,571 homes with a dollar value of $902.1 million and an average sales price of $574,000 at June 30, 2022. This compares to 1,197 homes with a dollar value of $630.2 million and an average sales price of $526,000 at June 30, 2021. The increase in units and value is due to acquired inventory from our recent homebuilder acquisition. Average sales price of backlog increased, primarily because of continued strong demand across our divisions, coupled with the addition of the Hanover operations and the higher priced luxury units sold in the New York segment.

Total lots owned or controlled at June 30, 2022, increased 52% to 13,017 compared to 8,556 at June 30, 2021, primarily due to the acquisition of Hanover and additional lots under control in Texas. Additionally, we have accelerated our asset-light strategy and now control 63% of our lots and own 37%.

Home sales gross margin increased to 21.3% from 17.0% in the prior year period. Adjusted home sales gross margin (a non-GAAP measure) increased to 29.1% compared to 23.5% in the prior year period. The lift was primarily due to price appreciation and an increase in gross margins within our California and Arizona segments.

Net income attributable to Landsea Homes increased to $14.9 million compared to $10.7 million in the prior year period. Adjusted net income attributable to Landsea Homes (a non-GAAP measure) increased to $30.8 million compared to $17.1 million in the prior year period. Net income per share on a fully diluted basis increased to $0.34 compared to $0.23 in the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income per share (a non-GAAP measure) on a fully diluted basis increased to $0.71 compared to $0.38 in the second quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) increased to $56.6 million compared to $32.6 million in the prior year period.

Home Sales Gross Margins

Home sales gross margin measures the price achieved on delivered homes compared to the costs needed to build the home. In the following table, we calculate gross margins adjusting for interest in cost of sales, inventory impairments (if applicable), and purchase price accounting for acquired work in process inventory (if applicable). This non-GAAP financial measure should not be used as a substitute for the Company's operating results in accordance with GAAP. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe this non-GAAP measure is meaningful because it provides insight into the impact that financing arrangements and acquisitions have on our homebuilding gross margin and allows for comparability of our gross margins to competitors that present similar information.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The following table presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management in evaluating operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before (i) income tax expense (benefit), (ii) interest expenses, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) inventory impairments, (v) purchase accounting adjustments for acquired work in process inventory related to business combinations, (vi) loss (gain) on debt extinguishment or forgiveness, (vii) transaction costs related to the Merger and business combinations, (viii) the impact of income or loss allocations from our unconsolidated joint ventures, and (ix) loss on remeasurement of warrant liability. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest, effective tax rates, levels of depreciation and amortization, and items considered to be non-recurring. The economic activity related to our unconsolidated joint ventures is not core to our operations and is the reason we have excluded those amounts. Accordingly, we believe this measure is useful for comparing our core operating performance from period to period. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted Net Income to Landsea Homes is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe is useful to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating our operating results and understanding our operating results without the effect of certain expenses that were historically pushed down by our parent company and other non-recurring items. We believe excluding these items provides a more comparable assessment of our financial results from period to period. Adjusted Net Income to Landsea Homes is calculated by excluding the effects of related party interest that was pushed down by our parent company, purchase accounting adjustments for acquired work in process inventory related to business combinations, the impact from our unconsolidated joint ventures, loss (gain) on debt extinguishment or forgiveness, and loss on remeasurement of warrant liability, merger related transaction costs, and tax-effected using a blended statutory tax rate. The economic activity related to our unconsolidated joint ventures is not core to our operations and is the reason we have excluded those amounts. We also adjust for the expense of related party interest pushed down from our parent company as we have no obligation to repay the debt and related interest.

Net Debt to Net Capital

The following table presents the ratio of debt to capital as well as the ratio of net debt to net capital which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The ratio of debt to capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing total debt, net of issuance costs, by total capital (sum of total debt, net of issuance costs, plus total equity).

The non-GAAP ratio of net debt to net capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is total debt, net of issuance costs, less cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as well as cash held in escrow to the extent necessary to reduce the debt balance to zero) by net capital (sum of net debt plus total equity). The most comparable GAAP financial measure is the ratio of debt to capital. We believe the ratio of net debt to net capital is a relevant financial measure for investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of our ability to obtain financing. We believe that by deducting our cash from our debt, we provide a measure of our indebtedness that takes into account our cash liquidity. We believe this provides useful information as the ratio of debt to capital does not take into account our liquidity and we believe that the ratio of net debt to net capital provides supplemental information by which our financial position may be considered.

See table below reconciling this non-GAAP measure to the ratio of debt to capital.
