Management Commentary

“Landsea Homes posted another quarter of strong top-line growth in the second quarter of 2024, generating home sales revenue of $418.2 million, which represented an increase of 43.5% over the second quarter of 2023”, said John Ho, Landsea Homes’ Chief Executive Officer. “New home deliveries totaled 760 units for the quarter, well in excess of our stated guidance, as our teams did an excellent job of accelerating build schedules and closing homes in a timely manner. We also generated 760 net new orders for the quarter, 34.5% more than second quarter of 2023, on a sales pace of 3.0 homes per community per month.”

Mr. Ho continued, “The strong year-over-year growth we experienced in both sales and closings this quarter was the direct result of our strategic efforts to grow our company and achieve better economies of scale. Average community count for the quarter was up 47% year-over-year, thanks to the investments we’ve made in our markets and the acquisitions we’ve completed to grow our company. We are a much bigger and more diversified company than we were a year ago, and we expect to reap the benefits of our larger homebuilding platform as our volumes increase.”

Mr. Ho concluded, “As we turn our attention to the latter half of 2024, we remain focused on achieving our delivery goals for the year and generating cash to bring our leverage ratios down from current levels. Given the improvements we’ve seen in build times and the number of homes we currently have in backlog, I believe we are on track to achieve those goals. I am proud of the way our teams executed in the second quarter and continue to believe that Landsea Homes has a bright future ahead.”

Operating Results

Total revenue was $431.1 million in the second quarter, up 47.0% compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily driven by a 41% increase in homes closed and a 2% increase in average sales price.

New homes delivered increased 41.0% to 760 homes at an average sales price of $550,000, a 2% increase, compared to 539 homes delivered at an average sales price of $541,000 in the second quarter of 2023.

Net new home orders were up 34.5% to 760 homes with a dollar value of $389.8 million, an average sales price of $513,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 3.0 sales per active community. This compares to 565 homes with a dollar value of $324.4 million, an average sales price of $574,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 3.3 sales per active community in the prior year period. As a percentage of gross orders, cancellations equaled 11% as compared to 11% a year ago.

Total homes in backlog were 694 homes with a dollar value of $391.1 million and an average sales price of $564,000 at June 30, 2024. This compares to 722 homes with a dollar value of $455.8 million and an average sales price of $631,000 at June 30, 2023.

Total lots owned or controlled at June 30, 2024, were 12,357 compared to 11,008 at June 30, 2023. We continue to pursue an asset-light strategy, controlling 57% of our lots at the end of the second quarter of 2024 and 43% owned.

Home sales gross margin was 14.9% compared to 17.4% in the prior year period. Adjusted home sales gross margin (a non-GAAP measure) was 21.1% compared to 23.5% in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributed to the increase in sales discounts and incentives.

Net income attributable to Landsea Homes was $2.9 million compared to $4.9 million in the prior year period. Adjusted net income attributable to Landsea Homes (a non-GAAP measure) was $13.3 million compared to $13.0 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted net income per share (a non-GAAP measure) on a fully diluted basis was $0.36 compared to $0.33 in the second quarter of 2023.

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, and purchase price accounting for acquired work in process inventory. 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 the below information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that indebtedness, impairments, and acquisitions have on our gross margins and allows for comparability to previous periods and competitors.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The following table presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. 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 on debt modification, (vii) transaction costs related to the Merger and business combinations, (viii) write-off of deferred offering costs, and (ix) abandoned projects costs. 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. 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 attributable 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 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 attributable 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, loss on debt modification, and inventory impairment, and tax-effected using a blended statutory tax rate. 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 Total Capital

The following table presents the ratio of debt to capital as well as the ratio of net debt to total 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 total capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is total debt, net of issuance costs, less cash and cash equivalents as well as cash held in escrow to the extent necessary to reduce the debt balance to zero) by total capital. The most comparable GAAP financial measure is the ratio of debt to capital. We believe the ratio of net debt to total 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 total 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.
