NVR, INC. ANNOUNCES A 28% INCREASE IN EARNINGS PER SHARE FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2005

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

  CONTACT: Dan Malzahn
    OFFICE: 703-956-4204

 

October 18, 2005 — Reston, 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, 2005 exceeded the 2004 third quarter by 28%. Net income for the 2005 third quarter was $189,443,000, $24.33 per diluted share, compared to net income of $147,679,000, $19.04 per diluted share, for the same period of 2004. Consolidated revenues increased 18% to $1,373,022,000 for the quarter when compared to $1,166,519,000 for the same period of 2004. The Company reported that new orders increased 7% to 2,897 units for the third quarter of 2005 when compared to the third quarter of 2004. New orders increased in each region, except Washington, D.C., which was negatively impacted by generally weaker market conditions. Backlog at the end of the period increased 14% to 8,875 units when compared to the same time last year. The dollar value of the backlog units totaled $3,831,608,000 at the end of the September 2005 quarter, a 30% increase from a year earlier.

 

Homebuilding revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005, totaled $1,350,465,000, 18% higher than the year earlier period. Income before tax from the homebuilding segment totaled $291,721,000, an increase of 26% when compared to the third quarter of the previous year. Gross profit margins improved to 28.1% for the third quarter of 2005 compared to 26.0% for the same quarter of 2004. The margin improvement primarily resulted from the ability to raise prices in certain markets that more than offset rising material and land costs.

 

The Company reported that closed loan production from its mortgage banking segment increased 17% in the third quarter of 2005 when compared to the third quarter of 2004. The mortgage segment’s operating income for the 2005 third quarter increased to $16,250,000, a 10% increase from the same period of 2004.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, consolidated revenues were $3,604,143,000, 18% higher than the $3,044,688,000 reported for the same period of 2004. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $475,022,000, an increase of 30% when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Earnings per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $59.87, an increase of 29% from the $46.36 per diluted share reported for the comparable period of 2004.

The Company has increased its full year 2005 guidance to 30% growth in net income when compared to 2004. The Company also stated that during the first nine months of 2005 it had repurchased approximately 643,000 shares of its common stock.
