NVR, Inc. Announces First Quarter Results
RESTON, Va. April 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NVR, Inc. (Amex: NVR), one
of the nation's largest homebuilding and mortgage banking companies, announced
that diluted earnings per share for its first quarter ended March 31, 2007
decreased 33% and net income decreased 36% when compared to the 2006 first
quarter. Net income for the 2007 first quarter was $84,821,000, $12.96 per
diluted share, compared to net income of $132,560,000, $19.48 per diluted share,
for the same period of 2006. Consolidated revenues for the first three months of
2007 totaled $1,093,189,000, a 9% decrease from $1,204,655,000 for the
comparable 2006 quarter.
Homebuilding
New orders in the first quarter of 2007 increased 8% to 3,917 units, when
compared to 3,633 units in the first quarter of 2006. New orders in the Mid
Atlantic and Mid East regions increased 18% and 11%, respectively, when compared
to the first quarter of 2006. The Mid Atlantic region experienced an improvement
in market conditions at the start of the quarter, however, market conditions
slowed noticeably as the quarter progressed. The cancellation rate in the first
quarter of 2007 was 16% compared to 17% in the first quarter of 2006 and 20% in
the fourth quarter of 2006. The Washington DC cancellation rate in the quarter
was 22% compared to 26% in the first quarter of 2006 and 34% in the fourth
quarter of 2006.
Settlements decreased in the first quarter of 2007 to 2,700 units, 10%
less than the same period of 2006. Homebuilding revenues for the three months
ended March 31, 2007 totaled $1,075,110,000, 9% lower than the year earlier
period. Income before tax from the homebuilding segment totaled $127,937,000, a
decrease of 38% when compared to the first quarter of the previous year. Gross
profit margins decreased to 20.6% in the 2007 first quarter compared to 27.3%
for the same period in 2006. The decline in gross profit margins was due to
continued pricing pressure in many of our markets. Land deposit impairments of
approximately $12,000,000 negatively impacted gross profit margins by 114 basis
points in the current quarter. The Company's backlog of homes sold but not
settled at the end of the 2007 quarter decreased on a unit basis by 15% to 7,605
units from the same period last year. On a dollar basis, backlog dropped to
$3,018,921,000, a decline of 23% when compared to the same period last year.
Mortgage Banking
Mortgage closed loan production of $715,039,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 was 3% lower than the same period last year. Sub-prime loans
accounted for approximately 7% of our mortgage closed loan volume in the current
quarter compared to 6% for the first quarter of 2006. Operating income for the
mortgage banking operations during the first quarter of 2007 decreased 19% to
$10,095,000, when compared to $12,481,000 reported for the same period of 2006.
