UCP, Inc. (NYSE: UCP) today announced its results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Second Quarter 2016 Highlights Compared to Second Quarter 2015
Dustin Bogue, President and Chief Executive Officer of UCP, stated, “We continued to build momentum during the second quarter. We grew revenue, improved margins and prudently managed our balance sheet to maintain a strong cash position. We continue to experience broad-based success in the West, supporting our healthy backlog expansion. In the Southeast, demand remains firm and we are rebounding from weather-related construction delays during the first half of 2016. In addition to strong operational results, our disciplined control of construction costs and overhead expenses continues to enhance our performance. The second quarter reflects the positive transformation being made throughout our organization. As we move forward, we remain focused on our four major initiatives to improve our return on equity: (1) monetizing our deep land position through organic revenue growth; (2) improving gross margins; (3) controlling overhead expenses; and (4) maintaining strong liquidity."
Second Quarter 2016 Operating Results
Net income grew to $1.8 million, compared to a net loss of $1.5 million in the prior year period. Net income attributable to shareholders of UCP was $0.7 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to a net loss attributable to shareholders of UCP of $0.7 million, or a $0.08 loss per share, in the prior year period. The Company’s weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding attributable to shareholders of UCP were 8.0 million and 8.1 million, respectively, compared to 7.9 million basic and diluted shares in the prior year period.
Revenue from homebuilding operations grew 60.3% to $81.4 million, compared to $50.8 million for the prior year period. The improvement was driven by both a 27.9% increase in the number of homes delivered to 197, compared to 154 homes during the prior year period, as well as a 25.2% increase in the average selling price for home sales to approximately $413,000, compared to approximately $330,000 during the prior year period. The increase in average selling price was primarily a result of a greater mix of sales in the West along with core price gains.
Homebuilding gross margin percentage was 18.2%, compared to 17.1% in the prior year period. Adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 20.7%, compared to 19.0% in the prior year period, due to a favorable shift in product mix of the homes sold along with ongoing cost savings initiatives. Consolidated gross margin percentage was 16.7%, compared to 17.0% in the prior year period, reflecting a $2.5 million impairment and abandonment charge related to the Company’s move to exit the Bakersfield, California market. The Company made a strategic decision to redeploy capital in markets with more attractive return metrics.
Sales and marketing expense was $4.7 million, compared to $4.4 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of total revenue, sales and marketing expense decreased to 5.6%, compared to 8.0% in the prior year period, due to significant cost controls as well as higher overall revenues.
General and administrative expense was $7.2 million, compared to $6.5 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expense was 8.7%, down from 11.8% for the prior year period, primarily driven by higher revenues and a disciplined cost controls.
Net new home orders were 229, compared to 206 in the prior year period, an 11.2% increase. Net new home orders in the West grew 20.4% to 165, compared to the prior year period. Net new home orders in the Southeast declined 7.2% to $0, compared to the prior year period. The increase in the West is a direct result of strong market demand. The decline in the Southeast is the result of weather delays in late 2015 and the first half 2016, as well as a decision to slow absorption and increase gross margins in a number of communities that experienced high demand during the first half of 2015. Unit backlog at the end of the quarter was 339, compared to 274 at the end of prior year period, up 23.7%. The backlog on a dollar basis increased to $149.3 million, compared to $112.1 million at the end of prior year period, up 33.2%.
Total lots owned and controlled decreased to 5,547, from 5,878 at December 31, 2015 as the Company continues to prudently manage its inventory and strives to expand its return on equity and assets.

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company repurchased 21,065 shares of Class A common stock for approximately $160,000 under this new stock repurchase program.

(1) Adjusted gross margin, adjusted homebuilding gross margin and adjusted land development gross margin are non-GAAP financial measures. These metrics have been adjusted to add back capitalized interest, and impairment and abandonment charges. We use adjusted gross margin information as a supplemental measure when evaluating our operating performance. We believe this information is meaningful, because it isolates the impact that leverage and non-cash impairment and abandonment charges have on gross margin. However, because adjusted gross margin information excludes interest expense and impairment and abandonment charges, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results, the utility of adjusted gross margin information as a measure of our operating performance is limited. In addition, other companies may not calculate adjusted gross margin information in the same manner that we do. Accordingly, adjusted gross margin information should be considered only as a supplement to gross margin information as a measure of our performance. The table above provides a reconciliation of adjusted gross margin numbers to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure.
Debt-to-Capital Ratio and Net Debt-to-Capital Ratio
As of June 30, 2016 As of December 31, 2015 Debt $ 162,685 $ 155,966 Equity 214,842 217,408 Total capital $ 377,527 $ 373,374 Ratio of debt-to-capital 43.1 % 41.8 % Debt $ 162,685 $ 155,966 Net cash and cash equivalents $ 33,728 $ 40,729 Less: restricted cash and minimum liquidity requirement 15,900 15,900 Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents $ 17,828 $ 24,829 Net debt $ 144,857 $ 131,137 Equity 214,842 217,408 Total adjusted capital $ 359,699 $ 348,545 Ratio of net debt-to-capital (1) 40.3 % 37.6 %(1) The ratio of net debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is debt less cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash balance requirements) by the sum of net debt plus stockholders’ and member's equity. The most directly comparable U.S. 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 reconcile this non-GAAP financial measure to the ratio of debt-to-capital in the table above. The Company’s calculation of net debt-to-capital ratio might not be comparable with other issuers or issuers in other industries.
