Beazer Homes Reports Strong Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 Results
Beazer Homes USA, Inc. (NYSE: BZH) (www.beazer.com) today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30,
2017.
“We were very pleased with our third quarter results, as we generated growth in EBITDA and earnings per share, driven by
operational improvements across our business,” said Allan Merrill, Beazer’s President and CEO. “We increased both sales pace and
gross margin during the quarter, improved our backlog conversion and demonstrated strong overhead cost discipline. With a backlog
dollar value of $860 million, we’re well positioned for a strong finish to Fiscal 2017.”
Mr. Merrill continued, “Beyond this year, we are poised for further earnings growth and reductions in leverage, driven by an
improving return on capital and the continued rollout of our Gatherings business.”
The Company generated net income of $7.1 million for the quarter, which was up $1.3 million versus the same period last year.
Results for the third quarter of Fiscal 2016 included a $15.5 million benefit related to insurance recoveries and $11.9 million of
impairment and abandonment charges. Adjusting for non-recurring items, net income would have been up $3.4 million.
Beazer Homes Fiscal Third Quarter 2017 Highlights and Comparison to Fiscal Third Quarter 2016:
- Adjusted EBITDA was $44.3 million. This was up $6.0 million, excluding the benefit from insurance
recoveries in the prior year
- Homebuilding revenue was $472.4 million, higher by 4.7% due to a 1.7% increase in home closings and a
3.0% increase in average selling price
- Homebuilding gross margin, excluding interest, impairments and abandonments and additional insurance
recoveries in the prior year, was 21.3%, up 60 basis points. The improvement was driven by higher margins on spec home closings
and lower than anticipated warranty costs
Other Operational Highlights:
- Sales per community per month of 3.4, up 14.2%
- New home orders, net of 1,595, up 7.0%
- Dollar value of homes in backlog of $859.9 million, up 5.6%, driven by an increase in the average
selling price of homes in backlog of $351.8 thousand, up $16 thousand
- Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) as a percentage of total revenue was 12.4%,
an improvement of 20 basis points
- Land and land development spending of $103.8 million, up 43.1%
- Total available liquidity at quarter end of $308.5 million, including $168.4 million of unrestricted
cash and $140.1 million available on the Company’s revolving credit facility
Gatherings Update
During the third quarter, the Company started vertical construction at its first Orlando Gatherings community in the Lake Nona
master-planned development, which will ultimately provide more than 200 homes. Further, two additional sites, representing more
than 130 future sales, were approved for purchase in Dallas and Virginia.
So far this fiscal year, the Company has approved four new communities representing nearly 300 future sales and is currently
reviewing a pipeline of potential communities that exceeds 2,000 homes.

This press release contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements represent our expectations or
beliefs concerning future events, and it is possible that the results described in this press release will not be achieved. These
forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of our control, that
could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements, including, among
other things: (i) economic changes nationally or in local markets, changes in consumer confidence, declines in employment levels,
inflation or increases in the quantity and decreases in the price of new homes and resale homes on the market; (ii) the cyclical
nature of the homebuilding industry and a potential deterioration in homebuilding industry conditions; (iii) factors affecting
margins, such as decreased land values underlying land option agreements, increased land development costs on communities under
development or delays or difficulties in implementing initiatives to reduce our production and overhead cost structure; (iv) the
availability and cost of land and the risks associated with the future value of our inventory, such as additional asset impairment
charges or writedowns; (v) shortages of or increased prices for labor, land or raw materials used in housing production, and the
level of quality and craftsmanship provided by our subcontractors; (vi) estimates related to homes to be delivered in the future
(backlog) are imprecise, as they are subject to various cancellation risks that cannot be fully controlled; (vii) a substantial
increase in mortgage interest rates, increased disruption in the availability of mortgage financing, a change in tax laws regarding
the deductibility of mortgage interest for tax purposes or an increased number of foreclosures; (viii) our cost of and ability to
access capital, due to factors such as limitations in the capital markets or adverse credit market conditions, and otherwise meet
our ongoing liquidity needs, including the impact of any downgrades of our credit ratings or reductions in our tangible net worth
or liquidity levels; (ix) our ability to reduce our outstanding indebtedness and to comply with covenants in our debt agreements or
satisfy such obligations through repayment or refinancing; (x) increased competition or delays in reacting to changing consumer
preferences in home design; (xi) continuing severe weather conditions or other related events that could result in delays in land
development or home construction, increase our costs or decrease demand in the impacted areas; (xii) estimates related to the
potential recoverability of our deferred tax assets, and a potential reduction in corporate tax rates that could reduce the
usefulness of our existing deferred tax assets; (xiii) potential delays or increased costs in obtaining necessary permits as a
result of changes to, or complying with, laws, regulations or governmental policies, and possible penalties for failure to comply
with such laws, regulations or governmental policies, including those related to the environment; (xiv) the results of litigation
or government proceedings and fulfillment of any related obligations; (xv) the impact of construction defect and home warranty
claims, including water intrusion issues in Florida; (xvi) the cost and availability of insurance and surety bonds, as well as the
sufficiency of these instruments to cover potential losses incurred; (xvii) the performance of our unconsolidated entities and our
unconsolidated entity partners; (xviii) the impact of information technology failures or data security breaches; (xix) terrorist
acts, natural disasters, acts of war or other factors over which the Company has little or no control; or (xx) the impact on
homebuilding in key markets of governmental regulations limiting the availability of water.

Reconciliation of homebuilding gross profit and the related gross margin before impairments and abandonments and interest
amortized to cost of sales to homebuilding gross profit and gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is provided
for each period discussed below. Management believes that this information assists investors in comparing the operating
characteristics of homebuilding activities by eliminating many of the differences in companies’ respective level of impairments and
level of debt.
In addition, given the unusual size and nature of the charges related to the Florida stucco issues, net of insurance recoveries,
and the additional insurance recoveries from third-party insurer, homebuilding gross profit is also shown excluding these charges.
Management believes that this representation best reflects the operating characteristics of the Company.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, debt extinguishment, impairments
and abandonments) to total Company net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is provided for each period
discussed below. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors in understanding and comparing the operating
characteristics of homebuilding activities by eliminating many of the differences in companies’ respective capitalization, tax
position and level of impairments.
In addition, given the unusual size and nature of certain amounts recorded during the periods presented, Adjusted EBITDA is also
shown excluding these amounts. Management believes that this representation best reflects the operating characteristics of the
Company.
