Miami, June 24, 2015 -- Lennar Corporation (NYSE: LEN and LEN.B), one of the nation’s largest homebuilders, today reported results for its second quarter ended May 31, 2015. Second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2015 were $183.0 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, compared to second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2014 of $137.7 million, or $0.61 per diluted share.
Stuart Miller, Chief Executive Officer of Lennar Corporation, said, "The homebuilding market continued its steady improvement throughout our second quarter. Driven by higher wages and employment, reasonable affordability levels, supply shortages and favorable monthly payment comparisons to rentals, the homebuilding market is well positioned for multi-year growth ahead."
Mr. Miller continued, "Our core homebuilding business had gross and operating margins of 23.8% and 13.8% in the second quarter, respectively, which exceeded our previously stated guidance. Our average sales price of homes delivered increased to $348,000, the highest in the Company’s history, from $326,000 in the first quarter of 2015 and $322,000 in the second quarter of 2014. Our new home deliveries and new order sales dollar value increased 21% and 28% in the second quarter, respectively, compared to the same period last year. Our sales backlog dollar value increased 23% from the second quarter of last year to approximately $2.9 billion, keeping us well positioned going forward.
Complementing our homebuilding business, our Financial Services segment continued its strong performance by increasing its earnings to $39.1 million in the second quarter from $18.3 million in the second quarter of 2014. Our Financial Sevices business benefited from a stronger refinance market and an increase in purchase volume as a result of increased Lennar home deliveries and an expanded retail presence.
As the mortgage market remains constrained, our extensive pipeline of rental properties continues to benefit from increasing rental rates and historically high occupancy levels. While our maturing rental business has not yet turned a consistent profit, we believe our pipeline of future projects of $6 billion at quarter-end positions this segment to become a meaningful contributor to our earnings in the future.
Our Rialto segment generated $7.6 million of income and continues to emerge as a best-in-class asset manager. Rialto’s fund investments are poised for strong long-term returns and its mortgage conduit business continues to produce steady, current earnings."
Mr. Miller concluded, "We continue to execute our carefully-crafted strategy across all of our businesses. While our homebuilding business continues to be the primary driver of our quarterly earnings, we are in an excellent position across our multiple platforms and anticipate that our ancillary businesses will continue to further define themselves going forward."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2015 COMPARED TO
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2014
Lennar Homebuilding
Revenues from home sales increased 30% in the second quarter of 2015 to $2.1 billion from $1.6 billion in the second quarter of 2014. Revenues were higher primarily due to a 20% increase in the number of home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities, and an 8% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. New home deliveries, excluding unconsolidated entities, increased to 5,989 homes in the second quarter of 2015 from 4,976 homes in the second quarter of 2014. There was an increase in home deliveries in all of the Company's Homebuilding segments and Homebuilding Other. The average sales price of homes delivered increased to $348,000 in the second quarter of 2015 from $322,000 in the second quarter of 2014. Sales incentives offered to homebuyers were $21,500 per home delivered in the second quarter of 2015, or 5.8% as a percentage of home sales revenue, compared to $20,300 per home delivered in the second quarter of 2014, or 5.9% as a percentage of home sales revenue, and $21,800 per home delivered in the first quarter of 2015, or 6.3% as a percentage of home sales revenue.
Gross margins on home sales were $495.9 million, or 23.8%, in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $409.6 million, or 25.5%, in the second quarter of 2014. Gross margin percentage on home sales decreased primarily due to an increase in land costs, partially offset by an increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. Gross margin on home sales in the second quarter of 2014 included $9.6 million of insurance recoveries and other nonrecurring items, which represented 60 basis points in that period.
Gross profits on land sales were $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2014.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $209.0 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $173.1 million in the second quarter of 2014. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses improved to 10.0% in the second quarter of 2015, from 10.8% in the second quarter of 2014 primarily due to improved operating leverage as a result of an increase in home deliveries.
Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities was $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2014. In the second quarter of 2015, Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities included $11.6 million primarily related to the sale of a commercial property and homesites to third parties by El Toro, one of the Company's unconsolidated entities, partially offset by the Company's share of net operating losses of various Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities.
4-4-4
Lennar Homebuilding other income (expense), net, totaled ($0.2) million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2014.
Lennar Homebuilding interest expense was $57.7 million in the second quarter of 2015 ($53.2 million was included in cost of homes sold, $0.6 million in cost of land sold and $3.8 million in other interest expense), compared to $49.2 million in the second quarter of 2014 ($38.6 million was included in cost of homes sold, $0.3 million in cost of land sold and $10.3 million in other interest expense). Interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in the Company's outstanding debt and an increase in home deliveries, partially offset by an increase in qualifying assets eligible for interest capitalization and lower borrowing costs.
Lennar Financial Services
Operating earnings for the Lennar Financial Services segment were $39.1 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $18.3 million in the second quarter of 2014. The increase in profitability was primarily due to an increase in mortgage originations driven by a stronger refinance market and an increase in purchase volume as a result of increased Lennar home deliveries and an expanded retail presence. The increase in volume also benefited the title operations.
Rialto
Operating earnings for the Rialto segment were $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2015 (which included $6.9 million of operating earnings and an add back of $0.7 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests), compared to operating earnings of $13.4 million (which was comprised of a $3.7 million operating loss and an add back of $17.1 million of net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests) in the second quarter of 2014.
Revenues in this segment were $67.9 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $54.4 million in the second quarter of 2014. Revenues increased primarily due to an increase in securitization revenue and interest income from Rialto Mortgage Finance ("RMF") and the receipt of $4.8 million of advanced distributions with regard to Rialto's carried interests in Rialto Real Estate Fund, LP ("Fund I") and Rialto Real Estate Fund II, LP ("Fund II") in order to cover income tax obligations resulting from allocations of taxable income due to Rialto's carried interests in these funds. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in interest income as a result of a decrease in the portfolio of loans Rialto owns because of loan collections, resolutions and real estate owned ("REO") foreclosures.
Expenses in this segment were $67.5 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $79.6 million in the second quarter of 2014. Expenses decreased primarily due to a decrease in loan impairments of $32.3 million, partially offset by an increase in other general and administrative expenses and RMF securitization expenses.
5-5-5
Rialto equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities was $7.3 million and $17.9 million in the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively, primarily related to the segment's share of earnings from the Rialto real estate funds. The decrease in equity in earnings was related to marking up certain assets in the Rialto real estate funds to a lesser degree in the second quarter of 2015 than in the same period last year.
In the second quarter of 2015, Rialto other expense, net, was $0.9 million, which consisted primarily of expenses related to owning and maintaining REO, $2.4 million of impairments on REO and other expenses, partially offset by net realized gains on the sale of REO of $4.5 million and rental and other income. In the second quarter of 2014, Rialto other income, net, was $3.6 million, which consisted primarily of net realized gains on the sale of REO of $14.2 million and rental and other income, partially offset by expenses related to owning and maintaining REO, $1.2 million of impairments on REO and other expenses.
Lennar Multifamily
Operating loss for the Lennar Multifamily segment was $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $7.2 million in the second quarter of 2014. In both the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, the operating loss primarily related to general and administrative expenses, partially offset by management fee income.
Corporate General and Administrative Expenses
Corporate general and administrative expenses were $50.2 million, or 2.1% as a percentage of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2015, compared to $38.3 million, or 2.1% as a percentage of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2014.
Noncontrolling Interests
Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests were $1.6 million and ($15.1) million in the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests during the second quarter of 2015 were primarily attributable to a strategic transaction by one of Lennar Homebuilding's consolidated joint ventures that impacted noncontrolling interest by $2.3 million, partially offset by a net loss related to the FDIC's interest in the portfolio of real estate loans that the Company acquired in partnership with the FDIC. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests during the second quarter of 2014 was primarily related to the FDIC's interest in the portfolio of real estate loans that the Company acquired in partnership with the FDIC.

(1) | Diluted earnings per share includes an add back of interest of $2.0 million and $4.0 million for both the three and six months ended May 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to the Company's 3.25% convertible senior notes. |
| |
(2) | Amount represents interest incurred related to Lennar Homebuilding debt. |
| |
(3) | EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as earnings before interest and taxes. This financial measure has been presented because the Company finds it important and useful in evaluating its performance and believes that it helps readers of the Company's financial statements compare its operations with those of its competitors. Although management finds EBIT to be an important measure in conducting and evaluating the Company's operations, this measure has limitations as an analytical tool as it is not reflective of the actual profitability generated by the Company during the period. Management compensates for the limitations of using EBIT by using this non-GAAP measure only to supplement the Company's GAAP results. Due to the limitations discussed, EBIT should not be viewed in isolation, as it is not a substitute for GAAP measures. |

(1) | Net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net Lennar Homebuilding debt (Lennar Homebuilding debt less Lennar Homebuilding cash and cash equivalents) divided by total capital (net Lennar Homebuilding debt plus stockholders' equity). The Company believes the ratio of net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital is a relevant and a useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in Lennar Homebuilding operations. However, because net Lennar Homebuilding debt to total capital is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, this non-GAAP financial measure should be used to supplement the Company's GAAP results. |
