OFFICE: 703-761-2414

 

October 16, 2003 — McLean, VA — NVR, Inc. (AMEX: NVR), one of the nation’s largest homebuilding and mortgage banking companies, today announced that diluted earnings per share for its third quarter ended September 30, 2003 exceeded the 2002 third quarter by 24% and net income increased 19%. Net income for the 2003 third quarter was $109,403,000, $12.55 per diluted share, compared to net income of $91,980,000, $10.14 per diluted share, for the same period of 2002. Net income for the 2003 third quarter was reduced on a pre-tax basis by $8,503,000 ($5,207,000, $0.60 per diluted share, after tax) related to expenses recognized as a result of the redemption of the Company’s $115 million 8% senior notes due 2005 during the quarter. Total revenues increased 13% to $980,380,000 for the quarter when compared to $867,235,000 for the same period of 2002. In addition, the Company reported that new orders for the quarter ended September 2003 were virtually unchanged when compared to the third quarter of 2002. Backlog at the end of the period increased 19% to 7,320 units when compared to the same time last year. The dollar value of the backlog units totaled $2,400,984,000 at the end of the September 2003 quarter, a 31% increase from a year earlier.

 

Homebuilding revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2003, totaled $956,848,000, 13% higher than the year earlier period. Excluding the debt redemption expenses noted above, income before tax from the homebuilding segment totaled $177,912,000, an increase of 30% when compared to the third quarter of the previous year. Gross profit margins improved to 24.8% for the third quarter of 2003 when compared to 23.8% for the same quarter of 2002.

 

Pre-tax income from the mortgage banking segment for the 2003 third quarter increased to $15,383,000, 20% higher than the same period of 2002. The Company also reported that closed loan production increased 6% during the September 2003 quarter when compared to the third quarter of 2002.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, total revenues for NVR, Inc. were $2,572,455,000, 10% higher than the $2,347,929,000 reported for the same period of 2002.

The Company also reiterated its full year 2003 guidance of approximately 20% growth in net income when compared to 2002. In addition, the Company reported that during the first nine months of 2003 it repurchased approximately 644,000 shares of its common stock.
