United Homes Group, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:UHG) today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Operating Results

For the third quarter 2023, net income was $150.8 million, or $2.35 per diluted share, which included change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $149.7 million, predominantly due to changes in fair value on potential earn-out consideration due to fluctuation in the stock price during the measurement period. The earnout consideration would be paid in common shares upon reaching certain stock price hurdles. The Company is required to record the non-cash fair value of this earnout as derivative liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and to record changes in fair value of derivative liabilities on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, in each case until UHG shares reach certain predetermined values or expiration of the five year earnout period. Excluding the derivative liability, our adjusted book value¹ was $93.3 million. Net income for the third quarter 2022 was $15.7 million, or $0.40 per diluted share.

"United Homes Group posted year-over-year net new order growth of 55% and achieved sequential improvement to adjusted gross profit margin² during the third quarter 2023," said Michael Nieri, Chief Executive Officer of United Homes Group, "We also closed two strategic acquisitions since our last earnings release, entering the Raleigh market and expanding our footprint in the Greenville and Clemson markets. We intend to remain focused on additional strategic opportunities that meet our underwriting criteria and fit within our organizational framework."

Mr. Nieri concluded, "Despite recent volatility in rates, we still believe there are attractive opportunities for homebuilders due to a massive supply shortage in the home market, and we are excited about what the future holds for our company."

Revenues for the third quarter 2023 were $87.7 million, compared to $111.0 million in the third quarter 2022. Home closings during the third quarter 2023 were 283 compared to 343 in the third quarter 2022. Net new home orders during the third quarter 2023 were 272 compared to 175 in the third quarter 2022 and net new home orders were 118 in October 2023. ASP of 268 production-built homes (which excludes 15 general contractor and build-for-rent homes) closed during the third quarter 2023 was approximately $316,000, compared to $315,000 during the third quarter 2022 for 336 production-built homes (which excludes seven general contractor and build-for-rent homes), representing a 0.4% increase.

Gross profit margin during the third quarter of 2023 was 19.8% compared to 26.1% during the third quarter 2022. Adjusted gross profit margin in the third quarter 2023 was 22.1%, compared to 27.5% in the third quarter 2022. UHG's year-over-year decline in both gross profit margin and adjusted gross profit margin can be largely attributable to UHG offering attractive sales incentives to homebuyers, as well as and selling its remaining inventory that was constructed with higher lumber costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") as a percentage of revenues was 15.5% in the third quarter 2023, which included $1.1 million of stock-based compensation and $385,180 of transaction related expenses. Excluding these stock-based compensation and transaction related expenses, Adjusted SG&A³ for the third quarter 2023 was 13.8% of revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA⁴ during the third quarter 2023 was $8.8 million compared to $18.0 million during the third quarter 2022. This decrease is largely related to fewer closings and lower gross margins as described above.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Operating Results

Net income was $191.7 million, or $3.61 per diluted share, which included change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $185.0 million predominantly due to changes in fair value on potential earn-out consideration due to fluctuation in the stock price during the measurement period. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $58.6 million, or $1.66 per diluted share.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, revenues were $304.6 million, compared to $362.0 million in the same period of fiscal 2022. Home closings for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were 996 compared to 1,216 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Net new home orders for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were 1,002 compared to 988 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Gross profit margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 19.1% compared to 26.9% during the same period of fiscal 2022. Adjusted gross profit margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 21.2%, compared to 27.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This reduction in both gross profit margin metrics is largely attributable to the Company offering attractive sales incentives to homebuyers, as well as selling its remaining inventory that was constructed with higher lumber costs.

Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $30.4 million compared to $65.1 million during the same period of fiscal 2022.

Business Acquisitions

Herring Homes Acquisition

In August 2023, UHG entered the Raleigh, North Carolina market through the acquisition of selected assets of Herring Homes, LLC ("Herring Homes") for a purchase price of $2.2 million in cash. UHG recognized the excess purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired as goodwill of $0.5 million. The remaining basis of approximately $1.7 million is primarily comprised of the fair value of 12 acquired developed lots and lot purchase agreement deposits with limited other assets and liabilities. Subsequent to the acquisition, UHG acquired 50 lots for a fair value of $4.9 million in the Raleigh, North Carolina market.

Rosewood Communities Acquisition

On October 25, 2023 ("the Closing Date"), the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the common stock of Rosewood Communities, Inc ("Rosewood") (the "Rosewood Acquisition"). The purchase price for the Rosewood Acquisition consisted of (a) cash at the closing in the amount of $13.0 million, subject to a customary post-closing adjustment based on the closing book value of Rosewood as of the Closing Date, (b) a warranty reserve of $0.3 million to be used to satisfy Rosewood warranty claims, and (c) the potential future payment of an earnout generally equal to 25% of EBITDA attributable to Rosewood's business through December 31, 2025. In addition, the Company paid off approximately $10.0 million of liabilities of Rosewood. The acquisition is expected to expand UHG's existing footprint in the Greenville and Clemson, South Carolina markets.

About United Homes Group, Inc.

UHG is a publicly traded residential builder headquartered in Columbia, SC. The company focuses on southeastern markets with 63 active communities in South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia.

UHG employs a land-light operating strategy with a focus on the design, construction and sale of entry-level, first move up and second move up single-family houses. UHG currently designs, builds and sells detached single-family homes, and, to a lesser extent, attached single-family homes, including duplex homes and town homes in three major market regions in South Carolina: Midlands, Upstate, and Coastal, and also has a presence in Georgia and North Carolina. UHG seeks to operate its homebuilding business in high-growth markets, with substantial in-migrations and employment growth.

Under its land-light lot operating strategy, UHG controls its supply of finished building lots through lot purchase agreements with third parties including its Land Development Affiliates, which provide UHG with the right to purchase finished lots after they have been developed by the applicable third party. This land-light operating strategy provides UHG with the ability to amass a pipeline of lots without the same risks associated with acquiring and developing raw land.

As UHG reviews potential geographic markets into which it could expand its homebuilding business, either organically or through strategic acquisitions, it intends to focus on selecting markets with positive population and employment growth trends, favorable migration patterns, attractive housing affordability, low state and local income taxes, and desirable lifestyle and weather characteristics.

GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 and 2022 (UNAUDITED)

Adjusted gross profit is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management of UHG as a supplemental measure in evaluating operating performance. UHG defines adjusted gross profit as gross profit excluding the effects of capitalized interest expensed in cost of sales and non-recurring remediation costs. UHG's management believes adjusted gross profit provides useful information to investors because it separates the impact that capitalized interest expensed in cost of sales has on gross profit to provide a more specific measurement of UHG's gross profits. However, because adjusted gross profit information excludes capitalized interest expensed in cost of sales, which has real economic effects and could impact UHG's results of operations, the utility of adjusted gross profit information as a measure of UHG's operating performance may be limited. Other companies may not calculate adjusted gross profit information in the same manner that UHG does. Accordingly, adjusted gross profit information should be considered only as a supplement to gross profit information as a measure of UHG's performance.

The following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted gross profit to the GAAP financial measure of gross profit for each of the periods indicated.

GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 and 2022 (UNAUDITED)

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management of UHG. UHG defines EBITDA as net income before (i) capitalized interest expensed in cost of sales, (ii) interest expensed in other (expense) income, net, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) taxes. UHG defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before stock-based compensation expense, transaction cost expense, non-recurring remediation costs and change in fair value of derivative liabilities. Management of UHG believes EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors because they enable a more effective evaluation of UHG's operating performance and allow comparison of UHG's results of operations from period to period without regard to UHG's financing methods or capital structure or other items that impact comparability of financial results from period to period such as fluctuations in interest expense or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, or unusual items. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. UHG's computations of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA of other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP financial measure of net income for each of the periods indicated.

Adjusted selling, general and administrative expense, or adjusted SG&A, is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management of UHG. UHG defines adjusted SG&A as SG&A, excluding the effects of stock-based compensation expense and transaction cost expense. Management of UHG believes adjusted SG&A provides useful information to investors because it enables an alternative assessment of the Company's operating results in a manner that is focused on its operating performance.

Adjusted book value is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management of UHG. UHG defines adjusted book value as total stockholders' equity (book value), excluding the effect of derivative instruments. Management of UHG believes Adjusted book value is useful to investors because it excludes the impact of fair value adjustments on derivative instruments which are not expected to result in economic gain or loss.
