Revolving Credit Agreement

On October 21, 2014, we entered into a credit agreement with Texas Capital Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides us with a revolving line of credit of up to $120 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”).

Unless terminated earlier, the Revolving Credit Facility will mature on October 21, 2017, and the principal amount thereunder, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing thereunder, if any, will be payable in full on such date. We may request a 12-month extension of the maturity date subject to the approval of the lenders and the Administrative Agent.

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we are entitled to request an increase in the size of the Revolving Credit Facility by an amount not exceeding $80 million. If the existing lenders elect not to provide the full amount of a requested increase, we may invite one or more other lender(s) to become a party to the Credit Agreement, subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer. The Credit Agreement includes a letter of credit sublimit of $20 million. The obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate equal to the LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 2.75% and 3.25% per annum, or, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, a base rate plus an applicable margin between 1.75% and 2.25% per annum. The “applicable margins” described above are determined by a schedule based on our leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also provides for fronting fees and letter of credit fees payable to the L/C Issuer and commitment fees payable to the Administrative Agent equal to 0.20% of the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (including limitations on our ability to grant liens, incur additional debt, pay dividends, redeem our common stock, make certain investments and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions), as well as customary events of default. The Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain (i) a leverage ratio of not more than 1.50 to 1.0 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, based upon our and our subsidiaries’(on a  consolidated basis) ratio of debt to tangible net worth, (ii) an interest coverage ratio of not less than 1.50 to 1.0 for any four fiscal quarter period, based upon our and our subsidiaries’(on a  consolidated basis)  ratio of EBITDA to cash interest expense, (iii) a consolidated tangible net worth of not less than the sum of $250 million, plus 50% of the net proceeds of any issuances of equity interests by us and the guarantors of the Revolving Credit Facility, plus 50% of the amount of our and our subsidiaries’ consolidated net income, (iv) liquidity of not less than $25 million, and (v) a risk asset ratio of not more than 1.25 to 1.0, based upon the ratio of the book value of all risk assets owned by us and our subsidiaries to the our tangible net worth.

 

Acquisition of Peachtree Communities, LLC

 

On November 13, 2014, we acquired substantially all the assets and operations of Peachtree Communities a leading homebuilder in Atlanta, Georgia for approximately $55 million in cash.

As the acquired assets and processes have the ability to create outputs in the form of revenue from the sale of single family residences, we concluded that the acquisition represents a business combination.

Acquisition of LVLH

 

On April 1, 2014, one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Century Communities of Nevada, LLC, purchased substantially all of the assets of Las Vegas Land Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, “LVLH”), a homebuilder with operations in Las Vegas, Nevada, for a purchase price of approximately $165 million.  As the acquired assets and processes have the ability to create outputs in the form of revenue from the sale of single family residences, we concluded that the acquisition represents a business combination.

On May 5, 2014, the Company closed an offering of $200 million in aggregate principal of senior unsecured notes due 2022 (the “Notes”).  The Notes will carry a coupon of 6.875% per annum and were issued at a price equal to 99.239% of their principal amount.  Concurrent with the closing of the Notes, we repaid the then outstanding balance including interest of $99.2 million on our revolving loan agreement.

Initial Public Offering

In June 2014, we completed our initial public offering of 4.0 million shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, at a per share price of $23.00, where we received net proceeds to the Company of approximately $81.9 million.

Acquisition of Grand View Builders

On August 12, 2014, we purchased substantially all the assets and operations of Grand View Builders (“Grand View”) in Houston, Texas for a purchase price of approximately $13 million and annual earnout payments based on a percentage of adjusted pre-tax income over the next two years. As the acquired assets and processes have the ability to create outputs in the form of revenue from the sale of single family residences, we concluded that the acquisition represents a business combination. We incurred $0.1 million in acquisition-related costs, which are included in other income (expense) on the consolidated statement of operations.
