QUARTERLY BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE OF $0.69 VS $0.31, UP 122.6%

“The inflection that started more than a year ago accelerated this quarter. We are seeing unprecedented demand for our homes, as many people adapt to a post-COVID lifestyle. People want to own their own spaces, have a home office and grill for their family and friends in their own backyard. Our neighborhoods offer those homes at reasonable price points in some of the best and most diversified growth markets in the country. We are benefiting from the rapid growth and successful expansion of our Trophy Signature Homes brand in the DFW market,” said Jim Brickman Chief Executive Officer.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2020, basic net income attributable to Green Brick per common share (“EPS”), total revenues, residential units revenue, net income attributable to Green Brick, and backlog reflect a record for any quarter, as detailed below.

•As compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, total revenues were $721.9 million, an increase of 28.6% from $561.5 million; gross profit was $170.8 million, an increase of 41.9% from $120.4 million; and net income attributable to Green Brick was $84.4 million, an increase of 97.5% from $42.7 million.
•Residential units revenue was $683.7 million, an increase of 27.4% compared to $536.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019. Land and lots revenue was $38.2 million, an increase of 52.9% compared to $25.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Mr. Brickman continued, “Our net new home orders this quarter were up 89% year over year, driven by order growth at every price point from entry level to second-time move-up buyers. With demand for new quality homes at the highest levels in more than a decade, Green Brick has successfully continued to expand its community count, growing 18% from the prior year. At the same time, Green Brick has grown profitability managing both pace and price, as we increased our Q3 2020 sales absorption by 58% and gross margins by 370 basis points year-over-year to 24.8%. We have leveraged our much higher volumes with only moderate growth in operating expenses to drive basic earnings per share up 122.6%over Q3 2019. Our industry-leading growth in profitability and revenues were most recently recognized by Fortune Magazine who awarded Green Brick the 55th place on its 100 Fastest Growing Companies list, a 38 spot jump from the prior year.”
“Over the past three months, our company has grown our owned and controlled lots over 31% to an all-time record of 12,066 lots, despite starting over 700 homes over the same time period. Thanks to the hard work of our land team and our strong relationships with land sellers and municipalities in our core markets, Green Brick has been able to quickly and efficiently invest its strong operating cash flow into investments in land to fund our planned future growth.”
“It is important to note that our record growth in land and lots was achieved while maintaining a debt to capital ratio of 25.3%, one of the lowest of all public homebuilders,” said Rick Costello, Chief Financial Officer. “The combination of our consistently strong growth and profitability with our conservative balance sheet has been critically important in building our relationship with Prudential Private Capital, resulting in our second issuance of senior notes this August. The $37.5 million of senior unsecured notes issued this quarter are due in 2027 at a fixed rate of 3.35%, a rate comparable with that of long-term rates paid by low-leveraged large-cap peers. The low cost of our debt clearly distinguishes Green Brick from our higher-risk, small-cap peers and will position us for further expansion in our core markets in 2021.”
Green Brick, like every other company in the United States and the global economy, has been impacted by the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic and the impact of governmental actions taken to combat the pandemic. While response to the COVID-19 outbreak continues to rapidly evolve, during March and the second quarter these steps included stay-at-home orders and social distancing guidelines that have seriously disrupted activities in many other segments of the economy. Although we slowed discretionary capital expenditures, including unsold units under construction in March and April, throughout the pandemic, we continued to build, close and sell homes in our markets. As we began to see increased market activity, we restarted construction of unsold units, recommenced purchases of lots and land and resumed development of land to reflect the market activity. While uncertainty caused by COVID-19 dramatically slowed net new home orders in late March and April 2020, during May and June 2020, our sales rebounded. Our rate of sales accelerated in the third quarter with an increase in net sales of 29%, 135% and 124% during July, August, and September 2020, respectively, over the prior monthly periods. We believe the recovery and expansion of our sales activity is related to a variety of factors, including historically low mortgage interest rates, the participation in home ownership in increasing amounts by the millennial generation, the desire of renters to leave high density living conditions, and the relative strength of the markets in which we operate.
More disclosures related to the COVID-19 pandemic are available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2020 on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Financial Metrics:
In this press release, we utilize certain financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We present these measures because we believe they and similar measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance and financing structure. We also believe these measures facilitate the comparison of our operating performance and financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Reclassifications:
Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company reclassified the allowances for option deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to option contracts from selling, general and administrative expenses to other (loss) income, net in the consolidated statements of income to conform to current year presentation. Net allowances for deposits and pre-acquisition costs were de minimis for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and were losses of $1.5 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. There was no impact on net income from the reclassification in any period.
