Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On August 22, 2024, Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its preliminary financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended July 31, 2024. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

The attached earnings press release contains information about consolidated earnings before interest expense and income taxes (“EBIT”) and before depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and before inventory impairments and land option write-offs and loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, net (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and also contains the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to interest incurred, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is net income. A reconciliation for historical periods of EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income is contained in the earnings press release.

The attached earnings press release contains information about homebuilding gross margin, before cost of sales interest expense and land charges, and homebuilding gross margin percentage, before cost of sales interest expense and land charges, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are homebuilding gross margin and homebuilding gross margin percentage, respectively. A reconciliation for historical periods of homebuilding gross margin, before cost of sales interest expense and land charges, and homebuilding gross margin percentage, before cost of sales interest expense and land charges, to homebuilding gross margin and homebuilding gross margin percentage, respectively, is contained in the earnings press release.

The attached earnings press release contains information about adjusted income before income taxes, which is defined as income before income taxes excluding land-related charges and loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, net, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is income before income taxes. A reconciliation for historical periods of adjusted income before income taxes to income before income taxes is contained in the earnings press release.

The attached earnings press release contains information about earnings before interest and income taxes return on investment (“EBIT ROI”), which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is income before income taxes. A reconciliation for historical periods of EBIT ROI to income before income taxes is contained in the earnings press release.

Management believes EBITDA to be relevant and useful information as EBITDA is a standard measure commonly reported and widely used by analysts, investors and others to measure and benchmark the Company’s financial performance without the effects of various items the Company does not believe are characteristic of its ongoing operating performance. EBITDA does not take into account substantial costs of doing business, such as income taxes and interest expense. While many in the financial community consider EBITDA to be an important measure of comparative operating performance, it should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, income before income taxes, net income and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that are presented on the financial statements included in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, the Company’s calculation of EBITDA may be different than the calculation used by other companies, and, therefore, comparability may be affected.

Management believes homebuilding gross margin, before cost of sales interest expense and land charges, enables investors to better understand the Company’s operating performance. This measure is also useful internally, helping management to evaluate the Company’s operating results on a consolidated basis and relative to other companies in the Company’s industry. In particular, the magnitude and volatility of land charges for the Company, and for other homebuilders, have been significant and, as such, have made financial analysis of the Company’s industry more difficult. Homebuilding metrics excluding land charges, as well as interest amortized to cost of sales, and other similar presentations prepared by analysts and other companies are frequently used to assist investors in understanding and comparing the operating characteristics of homebuilding activities by eliminating many of the differences in companies’ respective levels of impairments and levels of debt. Homebuilding gross margin, before cost of sales interest expense and land charges, should be considered in addition to, but not as an alternative to, homebuilding gross margin determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of operating performance. Additionally, the Company’s calculation of homebuilding gross margin, before cost of sales interest expense and land charges, may be different than the calculation used by other companies, and, therefore, comparability may be affected.

Management believes adjusted income before taxes to be relevant and useful information because it provides a better metric of the Company’s operating performance. Adjusted income before taxes should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, income before income taxes, net income and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that are presented on the financial statements included in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, the Company’s calculation of adjusted income before taxes may be different than the calculation used by other companies, and, therefore, comparability may be affected.

Management believes EBIT ROI to be relevant and useful information because it is a measure of operational performance irrespective of the capital structure of the Company. EBIT ROI should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for income before income taxes and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that are presented on the financial statements included in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, the Company’s calculation of EBIT ROI may be different than the calculation used by other companies, and, therefore, comparability may be affected.

LIQUIDITY AND INVENTORY AS OF JULY 31, 2024:

During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, land and land development spending was $216.1 million compared with $168.8 million in the same quarter one year ago. For the first nine months of fiscal 2024, land and land development spending was $677.0 million compared with $459.7 million in the same period one year ago.

Total liquidity as of July 31, 2024, was $251.3 million, above our targeted liquidity range of $170 million to $245 million.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, approximately 4,800 lots were put under option or acquired in 57 consolidated communities.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, we repurchased 82,753 shares of common stock for $11.5 million or an average price of $139 per share.

As of July 31, 2024, our total controlled consolidated lots were 39,516, an increase of 34.0% compared with 29,487 lots at the end of the third quarter of the previous year. The total controlled consolidated lots also increased sequentially from 36,841 lots as of April 30, 2024. Based on trailing twelve-month deliveries, the current position equaled a 7.7 years’ supply.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE(2):

The Company is increasing guidance for total revenues, adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted EBITDA, fully diluted earnings per share and common book value per share for the full fiscal year. Financial guidance below assumes no adverse changes in current market conditions, including further deterioration in our supply chain or material increases in mortgage rates, inflation or cancellation rates, and excludes further impact to SG&A expenses from phantom stock expense related solely to stock price movements from the closing price of $209.89 on July 31, 2024.

For the full fiscal year, total revenues are expected to be between $2.90 billion and $3.05 billion, adjusted homebuilding gross margin is expected to be between 21.5% and 22.5%, adjusted income before income taxes is expected to be between $300 million and $325 million, adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $420 million and $445 million and fully diluted earnings per share is expected to be between $29 and $31. At the midpoint of our guidance, we anticipate our common book value per share to increase by about 50% at October 31, 2024, to approximately $109 per share compared to last year’s value at year-end of $73 per share.

(2)The Company cannot provide a reconciliation between its non-GAAP projections and the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items required for the reconciliation. These items include, but are not limited to, land-related charges, inventory impairments and land option write-offs and loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, net. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results.

COMMENTS FROM MANAGEMENT:

“We are pleased to report strong adjusted EBITDA and adjusted pretax income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, both of which were above the high end of our guidance,” stated Ara K. Hovnanian, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While average weekly foot traffic during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 at our communities was consistent with the same period a year ago, there was some choppiness in our third quarter contracts this year due to economic, mortgage rate and geopolitical uncertainty that is impacting homebuyers’ decisions, as well as disruptions from Hurricane Beryl in Texas, our largest state. When you ignore the impact of build for rent contracts from both the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the primary weakness was in our West segment, which includes Texas. Over the past five weeks, contracts have increased approximately 23% compared to the same weeks a year ago. This improved trend suggests that homebuyers have reacted positively to the recent decreasing mortgage rate environment.”

“Last quarter we spoke about shifting our primary focus to growing our business. Our commitment to this shift is evident in the 34% increase in our lot count, 28% year-over-year increase in land and land development spend and 24% growth in our consolidated community count. We believe these investments will lead to future increases in revenue that will better leverage our fixed costs and lead to higher levels of profitability, which in turn should further improve our credit metrics. Our leverage continues to improve, and our ROE and EBIT ROI remain among the best of the peer group. The housing market continues to be driven by positive fundamentals, and we expect to be able to capitalize on these trends and continue to deliver top-tier industry returns to our shareholders,” concluded Mr. Hovnanian.
