Management Commentary
“2022 is off to a great start for Landsea Homes, as we delivered another quarter of strong profitability while making further progress in scaling our operations in some of the strongest homebuilding markets in the country,” said John Ho, chief executive officer of Landsea Homes. “We generated net income of $13 million, or earnings of $0.28 per diluted share in the first quarter, driven by a 93% year-over-year increase in home sales revenue and a significant improvement to our margin profile. On an adjusted basis, which excludes the impact of purchase price accounting for acquired inventory and losses associated with the remeasurement of warrant liability, net income for the quarter was $32.1 million, or $0.71 per diluted share. We believe these results are a testament to the underlying strength of the new home construction industry as well as to our ability to execute in what continues to be a challenging operational environment.”
Mr. Ho continued, “Net new orders for the quarter came in at 637, representing a 50% increase over the prior year period, as new home demand remained strong in each of our markets. We attribute this sales success to our continued focus on the more affordable segments of the market as well as to the appeal of our High-Performance Homes, which offers new home buyers a compelling value proposition and differentiates us from the competition. We believe that this combination of affordability and new home innovation will continue to be a winning strategy for our company.”
Mr. Ho concluded, “Earlier this week, Landsea Homes was named the 2022 winner of the prestigious ‘Builder of the Year’ award by Builder Magazine, which is a great honor for our company and validation of our recent success. With the highest quarter-ending backlog in the Company’s history, a strong balance sheet and excellent product positioning in high growth markets, we believe that Landsea Homes is in a great position to build on this success. I am confident we have the right strategy and team in place with years of operational experience to navigate through today’s operational challenges and deliver strong results for our shareholders.”
First Quarter 2022 Financial and Operational Results
Total revenue increased 97% to $316.2 million compared to $160.4 million in the first quarter of 2021 primarily driven by increases in average sales price across our divisions and the addition of our Florida, New York, and Texas operations.
Total homes delivered increased 83% to 552 homes at an average sales price of $540,000 compared to 301 homes delivered at an average sales price of $514,000 in the first quarter of 2021. The increase in deliveries was primarily due to the acquisition of Hanover Family Builders (“Hanover”) in the first quarter of 2022, the start of deliveries in our Metro New York division, and the acquisition of Vintage Estate Homes (“Vintage Estate”) in the second quarter of 2021.
Net new home orders were 637 homes with a dollar value of $414.1 million, an average sales price of $650,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 3.9 sales per active community. This compares to 426 homes with a dollar value of $258.1 million, an average sales price of $606,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 5.3 sales per active community in the prior year period. The increase in new home orders was due to the Hanover and Vintage Estate acquisitions in the first quarter of 2022 and second quarter of 2021, respectively.
Total homes in backlog increased 83% to 1,605 homes with a dollar value of $930.4 million and an average sales price of $580,000 at March 31, 2022. This compares to 875 homes with a dollar value of $492.7 million and an average sales price of $563,000 at March 31, 2021. The increase in units and value is due to acquired inventory from our homebuilder acquisitions. Average sales price of backlog increased, primarily because of continued strong demand across our divisions, especially in Arizona, coupled with the addition of the Hanover and Vintage Estate operations and the higher priced luxury units sold in the New York segment.
Total lots owned or controlled at March 31, 2022, increased 95% to 12,768 compared to 6,546 at March 31, 2021, primarily due to the acquisition of Hanover Family Builders. Additionally, we have accelerated our asset-light strategy and now control 53% of our lots and own 47%.
Home sales gross margin increased to 20.9% from 11.6% in the prior year period. Adjusted home sales gross margin (a non-GAAP measure) increased to 29.0% compared to 17.9% in the prior year period. The lift was primarily due to price appreciation and an increase in gross margins within our California segment, partially offset by higher costs and strong performance from our Florida division.
Net income attributable to Landsea Homes increased to $13.1 million compared to a $7.1 million net loss in the prior year period. Adjusted net income attributable to Landsea Homes (a non-GAAP measure) increased to $32.8 million compared to $1.4 million in the prior year period. Net income per share on a fully diluted basis increased to $0.28 compared to a loss of $0.16 in the first quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income per share (a non-GAAP measure) on a fully diluted basis increased to $0.71 compared to $0.03 in the first quarter of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) increased to $50.4 million compared to $8.1 million in the prior year period.
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had total liquidity of $247.9 million consisting of cash and cash equivalents and cash held in escrow of $85.2 million and $162.7 million in availability under the Company’s $585 million unsecured revolving credit facility. Total debt was $494.4 million compared to $461.1 million at December 31, 2021.
Landsea Homes’ ratio of debt to capital was 44.0% at March 31, 2022 and the Company’s net debt to net book capitalization (a non-GAAP measure) was 39.4% at March 31, 2022.

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.

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) (gain) loss on debt extinguishment, (vii) transaction costs related to the merger and business combinations, (viii) the impact of income or loss allocations from our unconsolidated joint ventures, (ix) gain on forgiveness of PPP loan, and (x) gain (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, gain on forgiveness of PPP loan, and gain (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.
