From Jan 2020 to Jan 2025
The New Home Company Inc. (NYSE: NWHM) today announced results for the 2021 first quarter.
First Quarter 2021 Financial Results
"The New Home Company started the year on a strong note as robust housing demand continued through the first quarter across all of our markets,” stated Larry Webb, Executive Chairman of The New Home Company. “Our net new orders and homes in backlog increased 114% and 273% year-over-year, respectively, while our gross margins from home sales increased 570 basis points resulting from strong pricing power, lower interest costs and the benefits associated with faster absorption. In addition, we expanded our geographic footprint by entering the Colorado market during the quarter through the acquisition of Epic Homes, which positions us in another strong housing market and further diversifies our operations."
Leonard Miller, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The ongoing strength in our markets is broad-based and across all our product types, which resulted in a monthly sales absorption rate of 4.4 homes per community for the quarter, a company record and up 120% over the prior year. We are also focused on balancing our sales releases with construction starts and production capacity, especially in light of the demand on our trade partners and material cost pressures. As a result of the strong sales absorption rates and the meaningful price increases we have instituted over the last several quarters, we are starting to see real improvements to our profitability."
Mr. Miller concluded, "We ended the quarter with $115 million in cash on hand, nothing drawn on our unsecured revolving credit facility and a net debt-to-capital ratio of 45.5%* after giving effect to the acquisition of Epic Homes and the issuance of a $35 million tack-on to our existing senior notes. Going forward, we will strive to execute a balanced approach of growing our land pipeline, improving our operating metrics and returns, all while appropriately managing our financial position. We believe the improvement in our gross margins and our record backlog value of $423 million at the end of the quarter positions us well to improve our profitability and returns as we move through the balance of this year and beyond."
First Quarter 2021 Operating Results
Total revenues for the 2021 first quarter were $99.2 million compared to $132.0 million in the prior year period, including $5.3 million and $36.2 million of fee building revenue, for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. For the 2021 first quarter, the Company generated pretax income of $1.0 million compared to an $18.4 million pretax loss in the prior year period, which included a $14.0 million noncash abandonment charge and a $2.3 million joint venture impairment charge. Net income attributable to the Company for the 2021 first quarter was $0.6 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $8.5 million, or ($0.42) per diluted share, in the prior year period. Adjusted net income for the 2021 first quarter, after excluding transaction costs and the remeasurement impact to the deferred tax asset related to the acquisition of Epic Homes, was $1.5 million*, or $0.08 per diluted share*, compared to an adjusted net loss of $1.1 million*, or ($0.05) per diluted share*, for the 2020 first quarter after excluding $16.3 million in pretax charges and a $2.1 million net deferred tax asset revaluation benefit.
Wholly Owned Projects
Net new home orders for the 2021 first quarter were 283 as compared to 132 in the prior year which represented a 114% increase. The significant increase was driven by a 120% improvement in our monthly sales absorption rate to 4.4 per community as compared to 2.0 per community in the prior year period. We ended the 2021 first quarter with 23 active selling communities compared to 22 in the prior year first quarter.
Homes in backlog totaled 649 at the end of the 2021 first quarter, a 273% increase compared to the 2020 first quarter. The dollar value of homes in backlog increased 225% to $423.1 million, which included approximately $100 million of acquired backlog from Epic Homes, as compared to $130.2 million in the 2020 first quarter. The average selling price of homes in backlog at the end of the 2021 first quarter decreased to $652,000 as compared to $748,000 a year ago as the Company continues to expand its product portfolio to include more affordably priced communities.
Home sales revenue for the 2021 first quarter was $93.9 million, as compared to $95.7 million for the 2020 first quarter. The slight year-over-year decrease in home sales revenue was largely the result of a 28% decrease in average selling price driven by the Company's strategic shift to more-affordable product, which was partially offset by a 36% increase in new home deliveries. The average sales price of home deliveries for the 2021 first quarter was approximately $643,000, as compared to $894,000 for the 2020 first quarter.
Gross margin from home sales for the 2021 first quarter was 17.1% compared to 11.4% for the prior year period. The 570-basis point improvement was primarily due to a mix shift to higher margin communities, pricing increases and a 230-basis point reduction in interest in cost of sales as a percentage of home sales revenue. The 2021 first quarter cost of home sales included $295,000 of purchase accounting adjustments related to the acquisition of Epic Homes. Excluding these purchase accounting adjustments, gross margin from home sales for the 2021 first quarter was 17.4%*. Adjusted homebuilding gross margin, excluding interest in cost of home sales was 21.3%* for the 2021 first quarter as compared to 17.9%* in the prior year period.
The Company's SG&A expense ratio as a percentage of home sales revenue for the 2021 first quarter was 15.9% compared to 14.1% in the prior year period. The increase in the SG&A rate was primarily attributable to $1.0 million in transaction related costs associated with the acquisition of Epic Homes during the quarter, including tail insurance expenses and professional fees, and a $0.8 million decrease in G&A expenses that were allocated to the fee building segment as compared to the 2020 first quarter. Excluding the acquisition transaction costs, the SG&A expense ratio as a percentage of home sales revenue was 14.9%* for the quarter.
Fee Building Projects
Fee building revenue for the 2021 first quarter was $5.3 million compared to $36.2 million in the prior year period. The reduction in fee building gross margin was primarily due to the wind down of our fee building arrangement with Irvine Pacific.
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures (JVs)
Income from unconsolidated joint ventures was $174,000 during the 2021 first quarter compared to a loss of $1.9 million in the prior year period. The 2021 income related primarily to the release of reserves from a land development joint venture for which stated completion obligations were completed and released. As of the end of the 2021 first quarter, the Company has no remaining lots or homes in any joint ventures.
Interest Expense
The Company expensed approximately $354,000 of interest costs directly to interest expense during the 2021 first quarter compared to approximately $718,000 in interest costs in the prior year first quarter.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
The Company generated $2.5 million in operating cash flows during the 2021 first quarter and ended the quarter with $114.8 million in cash and cash equivalents. During the quarter, the Company issued an additional $35 million of its 7.25% senior notes due 2025 at a premium, which had an effective yield of 6.427%. As of the end of the 2021 first quarter, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility and had $280.3 million in debt outstanding related to its senior notes due 2025. The Company had a debt-to-capital ratio of 58.7% and a net debt-to-capital ratio of 45.5%*, which represented a 330 basis point year-over-year improvement. The Company owned or controlled 2,502 lots through its wholly owned operations, of which 1,084 lots, or 43%, were controlled through option contracts.
Share Repurchases
During the 2021 first quarter, the Company repurchased 141,823 shares of common stock at an average price of $5.32 per share for an aggregate value of approximately $0.8 million. As of the end of the 2021 first quarter, the Company had a remaining purchase authorization of $8.7 million of its $10 million authorized stock repurchase program.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)
In this earnings release, we utilize certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We present these measures because we believe they, and similar measures, are useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance and financing structure. We also believe these measures facilitate the comparison of our operating performance and financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following table reconciles net income (loss) to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted net income (loss) (net income (loss) before acquisition transaction costs, abandoned project costs, joint venture impairment, and noncash deferred tax asset adjustments) and earnings (loss) per share and earnings (loss) per diluted share to the non-GAAP measures of adjusted earnings (loss) per share and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share (earnings (loss) per share before acquisition transaction costs, abandoned project costs, joint venture impairment and noncash deferred tax asset adjustments). We believe removing the impact of these items is relevant to provide investors with an understanding of the impact these items had on earnings.

The following table reconciles the Company’s SG&A rate as a percentage of home sales revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP measure, SG&A rate excluding acquisition transaction costs. During the 2021 first quarter, the company incurred $983,000 in transaction related costs associated with the acquisition of Epic Homes. We believe removing the impact of these charges from our SG&A rate is relevant to provide investors with a better comparison to rates that do not include these charges.

The following table reconciles homebuilding gross margin percentage as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP measures, adjusted homebuilding gross margin (or homebuilding gross margin excluding interest in cost of home sales) and homebuilding gross margin before purchase accounting adjustments. We believe this information is meaningful, as it isolates the impact leverage and purchase accounting adjustments have on homebuilding gross margin and provides investors better comparisons with our competitors, who adjust gross margins in a similar fashion.

The following table reconciles the Company’s ratio of debt-to-capital to the non-GAAP ratio of net debt-to-capital. We believe that the ratio of net debt-to-capital is a relevant financial measure for management and investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of the Company’s ability to obtain financing.

The ratio of debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing total debt, net of unamortized premium and debt issuance costs by total capital (the sum of total debt, net of unamortized discount, premium and debt issuance costs plus equity).
(2)
The ratio of net debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is total debt, net of unamortized premium and debt issuance costs less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash to the extent necessary to reduce the debt balance to zero) by total capital. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the ratio of debt-to-capital. We believe the ratio of net debt-to-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 net of cash provides supplemental information by which our financial position may be considered. Investors may also find this to be helpful when comparing our leverage to the leverage of our competitors that present similar information.

(Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage, the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to total interest incurred, the ratio of debt to Adjusted EBITDA, and the ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA means net income (loss) (plus cash distributions of income from unconsolidated joint ventures) before (a) income taxes, (b) interest expense, (c) amortization of previously capitalized interest included in cost of sales (excluding amounts included in impairment charges), (d) severance charges (e) noncash inventory impairment charges and abandoned project costs, (f) gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt (g) depreciation and amortization, (h) amortization of stock-based compensation, (i) income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures, and (j) acquisition transaction costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenue for a given period. The ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to total interest incurred is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total interest incurred for a given period. The ratio of debt to Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by dividing debt at the period end by Adjusted EBITDA for a given period. The ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by dividing debt at the period end less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash by Adjusted EBITDA for a given period. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors in understanding and comparing the operating characteristics of homebuilding activities by eliminating many of the differences in companies' respective capitalization, interest costs, tax position, level of impairments and other non-recurring items. Due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), cash flows from operations or any other performance measure prescribed by GAAP. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, and the calculations of Adjusted EBITDA margin percentage, the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to total interest incurred, the ratio of debt to Adjusted EBITDA, and the ratio of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA are provided in the following table.
