    Management Commentary

    Patrick Zalupski, Dream Finders Homes Chairman and CEO, said, "Given the depth of industry uncertainty going into 2023, we were pleased to achieve another year of positive growth for our business. Perhaps most importantly, pre-tax income was $404 million, up 14% year over year, and $135 million, up 12% quarter over quarter. These were both all-time Company records. We also produced record annual revenues of $3.7 billion and closings of 7,314, up 12% and 6%, respectively.

    "We continue to be proud of our ability to grow the business while also generating record total liquidity of $828 million, including $494 million of unrestricted cash, and reducing our net debt to net capitalization to 23.3% as of the end of the year. This is a pretty significant accomplishment considering we were at 42.9% a year earlier and continued to provide a best-in-class return on participating equity of 36.3%.

    "While we are excited about our results from the quarter and 2023 overall, in true DFH fashion, we are focused on the future and continuing to grow our earnings. We have already taken a nice step forward with our recently announced acquisition of Crescent Homes, based in Charleston, South Carolina with additional operations in Greenville, South Carolina and Nashville, Tennessee. This acquisition added three new markets, increasing our footprint to an aggregate of 20 markets, and should provide meaningful future closing and earnings volume. The former owner, Ted Terry, and his team have been very professional throughout the process and we are excited to partner with this great company. With the benefit of the Crescent Homes acquisition, for the full year 2024, DFH expects approximately 8,250 home closings."

    Fourth Quarter 2023 Results

    Homebuilding revenues of $1.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased $38 million or 3% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Average sales price ("ASP") of homes closed for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 9% to $520,940, compared to $479,554 in the fourth quarter of 2022. Home closings decreased 7% to 2,153, compared to 2,316 in the fourth quarter of 2022, as we strive to even the flow of our production and delivery of homes throughout the full calendar year. In addition to overall price appreciation, there was a shift in our product mix towards higher priced homes during the fourth quarter of 2023 when compared to the fourth quarter of 2022.

    Homebuilding gross margin percentage in the fourth quarter of 2023 was 20.5%, compared to 17.1% in the fourth quarter of 2022. The gross margin percentage increase was primarily attributable to direct cost reductions across our segments and to a lesser extent cycle time improvements, partially offset by higher financing and closing costs. While we believe that our direct cost management efforts are sustainable, our gross margins in the future could be affected by several factors, including variability in product mix from quarter to quarter, higher financing and closing costs, as well as purchase accounting amortization from our acquisitions.

    Adjusted gross margin as a percentage of homebuilding revenues in the fourth quarter of 2023 was 28.1%, an increase of 440 bps compared to 23.7% in the fourth quarter of 2022. Our proactive management efforts focused on cost and cycle time reductions led to the improvement in the adjusted gross margin percentage. Adjusted gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

    Selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 27% to $94 million, compared to $74 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. SG&A as a percentage of homebuilding revenues in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 150 bps to 8.3%, compared to 6.8% in the fourth quarter of 2022. SG&A in the fourth quarter of 2023 included $11 million of costs in relation to forward commitment programs to allow our homebuyers to lock their mortgage interest rates at the time of sale, which were not incurred in 2022.

    Net income attributable to DFH in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased 18% to $102 million, or $1.06 per basic share, from $86 million, or $0.89 per basic share in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company recorded $14 million of contingent consideration revaluation expense in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $1 million of contingent consideration revaluation income in the fourth quarter of 2022. The change is primarily due to better-than-projected financial results as well as revised projections for expected future earnout payments for the McGuyer Homebuilders, Inc. acquisition, which is included in our Midwest segment.

    Net new orders in the fourth quarter of 2023 were 1,106, remaining consistent when compared to 1,107 net new orders for the fourth quarter of 2022. The cancellation rate in the fourth quarter of 2023 was 22.9%, a decrease of 920 bps compared to the cancellation rate in the fourth quarter of 2022 of 32.1%. Despite higher mortgage interest rates in the fourth quarter of 2023 relative to the fourth quarter of 2022, net new orders were steady and the cancellation rate improved, which we believe is due to our targeted mortgage buydown programs and readily available move-in homes.

    Our total available liquidity as of December 31, 2023 was $828 million, including $494 million of unrestricted operating cash. In addition, net debt to net capitalization as of December 31, 2023 was 23.3%, a reduction of 1,960 bps from the end of the fourth quarter of 2022.

    Fourth Quarter 2023 Backlog

    As of December 31, 2023, DFH had a backlog of 3,978 homes, valued at $1.9 billion, compared to the backlog of 5,025 homes, valued at $2.4 billion as of September 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the ASP in backlog was $474,451 compared to $479,638 as of September 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, approximately 704 of the homes in backlog are expected to be delivered in 2025 and beyond.

    Subsequent Events

    On February 1, 2024, DFH acquired the majority of the homebuilding assets of privately held homebuilder Crescent Ventures, LLC ("Crescent Homes"), for a purchase price of $185 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. DFH funded the transaction with cash on hand and borrowings under its existing senior unsecured revolving credit facility. Simultaneously with the acquisition closing, DFH paid off Crescent's vertical lines of credit associated with the assets acquired. The acquisition is expected to meaningfully enhance Dream Finders Homes' geographic footprint, including expansion into the markets of Charleston and Greenville, South Carolina, and Nashville, Tennessee. Assets acquired include 457 home sites in different stages of construction, and a backlog of approximately 460 sold homes valued in excess of $265 million. Additionally, the Company expects to control approximately 6,200 lots as a result of the transaction.

    Full Year 2024 Outlook

    Dream Finders Homes expects approximately 8,250 home closings for the full year 2024, inclusive of those from the Crescent Homes acquisition. Deterioration of general economic conditions, including interest rate increases and mortgage availability, as well as any governmental restrictions on land development, home construction or home sales, or supply chain challenges, could negatively affect the Company's ability to achieve this number of home closings in 2024.

    (1)

    Gross margin is homebuilding revenues less homebuilding cost of sales.

    (2)

    Includes interest charged to homebuilding cost of sales related to our construction lines of credit and senior unsecured notes, net, as well as lot option fees.

    (3)

    Represents amortization of purchase accounting adjustments from the Company's prior acquisitions.

    (4)

    Calculated as a percentage of homebuilding revenues.

    Adjusted gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management as a supplemental measure in evaluating operating performance. The Company defines adjusted gross margin as gross margin excluding the effects of capitalized interest, lot option fees, amortization included in homebuilding cost of sales (adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions) and commission expense. Management believes this information is meaningful because it isolates the impact that these excluded items have on gross margin. The Company includes internal and external commission expense in homebuilding cost of sales, not selling, general and administrative expense, and therefore commission expense is taken into account in gross margin. As a result, in order to provide a meaningful comparison to the public company homebuilders that include commission expense below the gross margin line in selling, general and administrative expense, commission expense has been excluded from adjusted gross margin. However, because adjusted gross margin information excludes capitalized interest, lot option fees, purchase accounting amortization and commission expense, which have real economic effects and could impact our results of operations, the utility of adjusted gross margin information as a measure of operating performance may be limited. In addition, other companies may not calculate adjusted gross margin information in the same manner. Accordingly, adjusted gross margin information should be considered only as a supplement to gross margin information as a measure of performance.
