Management Commentary

“Landsea Homes ended 2023 on a strong note, as the company posted healthy profits and a significant year-over-year increase in net new orders in the fourth quarter”, said John Ho, Landsea Homes’ Chief Executive Officer. “Net income for the quarter came in at $12.5 million, or $0.33 per diluted share on an adjusted gross margin of 20.8%, while orders increased by 352% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. We also grew our year-end book value per share to $17.88, representing an 11% increase over year-end 2022.”

Mr. Ho continued, “2023 was a pivotal year for Landsea Homes, as many of the actions we took during the year will have a lasting impact on our company. From entering new markets to executing several capital markets transactions, Landsea Homes laid the foundation for continued growth and increased stability for our shareholder base and capital structure. We believe these achievements make us better equipped to succeed as a public homebuilder and will bear fruit well into the future.”

Mr. Ho added, “Following the close of the quarter, we entered into a definitive agreement to buy DFW-based Antares Homes, which will give us approximately 19 actively selling communities and a strong pipeline of over 2,000 lots in the market. We believe Antares fits perfectly within our organization, both from a pricing and product standpoint, and gives us a great platform from which to grow our presence in this high-growth market. We look forward to the Antares team joining the Landsea family upon the closing of the deal.”

Fourth Quarter Operating Results

Net new home orders increased 352% to 398 homes with a dollar value of $218.9 million, an average sales price of $550,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 2.2 sales per active community. This compares to 88 homes with a dollar value of $57.5 million, an average sales price of $653,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 0.5 sales per active community in the prior year period. Cancellation rate was 13% compared to 72% in fourth quarter 2022.

The 7% decrease in total revenue to $397.6 million compared to $426.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily driven by increased financing incentives and geographic mix as the New York and Texas operations delivered $29.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The company ended the year with 11,176 lots owned and controlled, representing approximately 5 years of supply based on 2023 home closings. 41% of the lots were owned and 59% of the lots were controlled through contracts and option agreements.

Total homes delivered decreased 6% to 664 homes at an average sales price of $572,000 compared to 703 homes at an average sales price of $594,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Home sales gross margin was 15.9% in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 19.0% in the prior year period. Adjusted home sales gross margin (a non-GAAP measure) decreased to 20.8% compared to 23.4% in the fourth quarter 2022. The decrease was primarily the result of additional sales incentives used to close homes during the quarter.

Net income attributable to Landsea Homes was $12.5 million or $0.33 per diluted share compared to $25.6 million or $0.62 per diluted share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) attributable to Landsea Homes was $16.1 million compared to $33.3 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $40.3 million compared to $53.9 million in the prior year period.

Full Year 2023 Operating Results

Net new home orders were 1,947 homes with a dollar value of $1.1 billion, an average sales price of $571,000, and a monthly absorption rate of 2.8 sales per active community. This compares to 1,520 homes with a dollar value of $959.6 million, an average sales price of $631,000 and a monthly absorption rate of 2.4 sales per active community in the prior year. The increase in new home orders was primarily from a doubling of orders in the Arizona segment and a 51% increase in California, partially offset by a 5% decrease in the Florida segment.

Total revenue decreased 16% to $1.2 billion compared to $1.4 billion for the full year 2022, primarily driven by the decrease from New York and Texas along with increased incentives across the operating divisions related to higher mortgage rates, partially offset by the relatively steady performance of the Florida division.

Total homes delivered for the year totaled 2,123 homes at an average sales price of $551,000 compared to 2,370 homes delivered at an average sales price of $588,000 for the full year 2022.

Total homes in backlog at the end of 2023 was 517 homes with a dollar value of $335.6 million and an average sales price of $649,000 compared to 670 homes with a dollar value of $380.9 million and an average sales price of $569,000 at December 31, 2022.

Home sales gross margin decreased to 17.3% from 20.4% in the prior year. Adjusted home sales gross margin (a non-GAAP measure) decreased to 22.4% compared to 26.9% in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to increased closing incentives across the operating segments.

Net income attributable to Landsea Homes was $29.2 million or $0.75 per diluted share compared to $73.6 million and $1.70 per diluted share in the prior year period. Adjusted net income attributable to Landsea Homes (a non-GAAP measure) was $47.9 million or $1.22 per diluted share compared to $123.3 million and $2.85 in the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) was $112.3 million compared to $208.0 million in the prior year.

Total debt, net of issuance costs, was $543.8 million at December 31, 2023 compared to $505.4 million at December 31, 2022.

Landsea Homes’ ratio of debt to capital was 44.1% at December 31, 2023 and the Company’s net debt to total capital (a non-GAAP measure) was 30.4% at December 31, 2023. This compares to a debt to capital ratio of 41.6% and a net debt to total capital ratio of 30.0% at December 31, 2022.

During 2023, the Company repurchased 9% or 3.6 million of its outstanding shares for a total value of $34.4 million. The book value per share at December 31, 2023 was $17.88, an 11.4% increase over December 31, 2022.

Mr. Ho concluded, “Landsea Homes is well positioned to take advantage of the favorable homebuilding fundamentals, thanks to our strong market positioning and the appeal of our High Performance Homes. In addition, our asset light land portfolio, improving asset turns and entry-level focus have our company primed to generate improving returns on capital. As a result, I am very optimistic about the future of Landsea Homes.”

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 tables present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months and years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. 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, (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 (gain) on debt extinguishment or forgiveness, (vii) transaction costs related to the Merger and business combinations, (viii) the impact of income or loss allocations from our unconsolidated joint ventures, and (ix) 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 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, Merger related transaction costs, loss (gain) on debt extinguishment or forgiveness, and loss on remeasurement of warrant liability, 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 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, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as well as cash held in escrow to the extent necessary to reduce the debt balance to zero) by total capital. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2023, we presented the non-GAAP ratio of net debt to net capital computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt by net capital (sum of net debt plus total equity). During the fourth quarter of 2023, we began presenting the non-GAAP ratio of net debt to total capital, which is consistent with the ratio presented by our peers. 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.
