KB HOME REPORTS 2022 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Total Revenues Increased 19% to $1.72 Billion; Diluted Earnings Per Share Grew 55% to $2.32
Operating Income Margin Improved 410 Basis Points to 15.4%; Gross Margin Increased to 25.3%
Net Order Value Up 4% to $2.12 Billion; Ending Backlog Value Up 43% to $6.12 Billion
LOS ANGELES (June 22, 2022) — KB Home (NYSE: KBH) today reported results for its second quarter ended May 31, 2022.
“We delivered strong results in the second quarter, generating significant year-over-year growth in revenues, operating income and diluted earnings per share,” said Jeffrey Mezger, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “With our ending backlog of over $6 billion, we are reaffirming our fiscal 2022 guidance, which we believe we are well positioned to achieve.”
“Sales rates are moderating from the exceptional levels the industry has experienced, as buyers process the impact of higher mortgage interest rates, as well as inflationary pressures. We believe the flexibility of our Built-to-Order business model will enable us to navigate these changing market conditions. Our model allows our customers to choose from a wide array of floorplans and price points, offering them the ability to personalize their home in a way that reflects what they value and can afford. Our approach resonates with buyers and is a key reason we have sustained among the highest absorption rates in the industry for many years.”
“We will remain strategic in our capital allocation decisions to maximize returns in this environment. We currently own or control all of the lots we need to support our delivery targets through 2024. As a result, we are in a favorable position to calibrate our land investments to evolving conditions, without compromising our mid-term growth, providing us with opportunities to redeploy capital to stockholders,” concluded Mezger.
Three Months Ended May 31, 2022 (comparisons on a year-over-year basis)
•Revenues grew 19% to $1.72 billion.
•Homes delivered were essentially even at 3,469.
•Average selling price rose 21% to $494,300.
•Homebuilding operating income grew 62% to $264.5 million. The homebuilding operating income margin increased 410 basis points to 15.4% as a result of improvements in both the housing gross profit margin and selling, general and administrative expense ratio.
◦The housing gross profit margin increased 390 basis points to 25.3%, reflecting a favorable pricing environment due to strong demand and the limited supply of homes available for sale, and lower relative amortization of previously capitalized interest. These positive impacts were partly offset by higher construction costs, including elevated lumber prices, and increased expenses to support current operations and expected growth.
◦Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of housing revenues improved 30 basis points to 9.8%, primarily reflecting lower external sales commissions and increased operating leverage from higher revenues, partly offset by higher expenses to support growth.
•The Company’s financial services operations generated pretax income of $18.7 million, up 75%, reflecting significant growth in the equity in income of its mortgage banking joint venture, KBHS Home Loans, LLC, as a result of an increase in interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”). The dollar volume and duration of IRLCs increased significantly during the quarter as more buyers locked their mortgage interest rates.
•Total pretax income grew 63% to $282.9 million and, as a percentage of revenues, increased 430 basis points to 16.4%.
•The Company’s income tax expense and effective tax rate were $72.2 million and approximately 26%, respectively, compared to $30.3 million and approximately 17%. The higher effective tax rate mainly reflected the expiration of federal tax credits for building energy-efficient homes delivered after December 31, 2021.
•Net income of $210.7 million and diluted earnings per share of $2.32 increased 47% and 55%, respectively.
Six Months Ended May 31, 2022 (comparisons on a year-over-year basis)
•Homes delivered were relatively flat at 6,337.
•Average selling price increased to $490,600, up 21%.
•Revenues of $3.12 billion were up 21%.
•Pretax income grew 55% to $460.9 million.
•Net income increased 43% to $344.9 million and diluted earnings per share rose 50% to $3.79.
Backlog and Net Orders (comparisons on a year-over-year basis)
•Ending backlog value grew 43% to $6.12 billion, the highest second-quarter level in the Company’s history, with each of the Company’s four regions generating increases ranging from 18% in the West Coast to 98% in the Southeast. Ending backlog grew 23% to 12,331 homes.
•Net order value expanded by $87.9 million, or 4%, to $2.12 billion. Net orders of 3,914 decreased 9%, reflecting a moderation in monthly net orders per community to 6.2, compared to 7.0, partly offset by an increase in average community count.
•The Company’s average community count increased 3% to 211, and ending community count increased 7% to 214.
◦The cancellation rate as a percentage of gross orders was 17%, compared to 9%.
Balance Sheet as of May 31, 2022 (comparisons to November 30, 2021)
•The Company had total liquidity of $925.6 million, with $244.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $681.4 million of available capacity under its unsecured revolving credit facility.
•Inventories grew 16% to $5.56 billion.
◦Investments in land acquisition and development for the six months ended May 31, 2022 increased 24% to $1.40 billion, compared to $1.13 billion for the year-earlier period.
2
◦The Company’s lots owned or under contract increased to 89,778, compared to 86,768. The lot pipeline has expanded 16% since May 31, 2021 as a result of the Company’s investments in land and land development over the past 12 months.
▪Of the Company’s total lots, approximately 58% were owned and 42% were under contract.
▪The Company’s 51,902 owned lots represented a supply of approximately 3.9 years, based on homes delivered in the trailing 12 months.
•Notes payable increased by $400.2 million to $2.09 billion, reflecting borrowings outstanding under the unsecured revolving credit facility.
◦The Company’s debt to capital ratio was 38.8%, compared to 35.8%. The ratio was 37.7% at May 31, 2021.
◦On June 22, 2022, the Company completed the underwritten public offering of $350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior notes due 2030 at 100% of their aggregate principal amount. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering together with cash on hand, as needed, to retire its outstanding 7.5% senior notes due 2022 by redemption on July 7, 2022, pursuant to the optional redemption terms specified for such notes. In connection with this early extinguishment of debt, the Company expects to recognize a charge of approximately $4.0 million in the 2022 third quarter.
•Stockholders’ equity expanded 9% to $3.29 billion, mainly reflecting strong net income growth.
◦On April 7, 2022, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $300.0 million of its outstanding common stock. This authorization replaced a prior board of directors authorization. In the 2022 second quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 1.5 million shares of its outstanding common stock at a total cost of $50.0 million.
◦Book value per share of $37.76 increased 21% year over year.
Guidance
The Company is providing the following current guidance for its 2022 fiscal year:
•Housing revenues in the range of $7.30 billion to $7.50 billion.
•Average selling price will be approximately $500,000.
•Homebuilding operating income as a percentage of revenues in the range of 16.0% to 16.6%, assuming no inventory-related charges.
◦Housing gross profit margin in the range of 25.6% to 26.2%, assuming no inventory-related charges.
◦Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of housing revenues in the range of 9.3% to 9.7%.
•Effective tax rate of approximately 25%, assuming no federal energy tax credit extension is enacted.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(In Thousands, Except Percentages - Unaudited)
This press release contains, and Company management’s discussion of the results presented in this press release may include, information about the Company’s adjusted housing gross profit margin, which is not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure is relevant and useful to investors in understanding its operations, and may be helpful in comparing the Company with other companies in the homebuilding industry to the extent they provide similar information. However, because it is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this non-GAAP financial measure may not be completely comparable to other companies in the homebuilding industry and, thus, should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance and/or financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, this non-GAAP financial measure should be used to supplement the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in order to provide a greater understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s operations.
Adjusted Housing Gross Profit Margin
The following table reconciles the Company’s housing gross profit margin calculated in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measure of the Company’s adjusted housing gross profit margin:

(a) Represents inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges associated with housing operations.
Adjusted housing gross profit margin is a non-GAAP financial measure, which the Company calculates by dividing housing revenues less housing construction and land costs excluding housing inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges (as applicable) recorded during a given period, by housing revenues. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is housing gross profit margin. The Company believes adjusted housing gross profit margin is a relevant and useful financial measure to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance as it measures the gross profits the Company generated specifically on the homes delivered during a given period. This non-GAAP financial measure isolates the impact that housing inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges have on housing gross profit margins, and allows investors to make comparisons with the Company’s competitors that adjust housing gross profit margins in a similar manner. The Company also believes investors will find adjusted housing gross profit margin relevant and useful because it represents a profitability measure that may be compared to a prior period without regard to variability of housing inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges. This financial measure assists management in making strategic decisions regarding community location and product mix, product pricing and construction pace.
