Nvr Inc (NVR)
, /PRNewswire/ -- NVR, Inc. (NYSE: NVR), one of the nation's largest homebuilding and mortgage banking companies, announced net income for its third quarter ended September 30, 2025 of $342.7 million, or $112.33 per diluted share. For the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, net income and diluted earnings per share decreased 20% and 14%, respectively, when compared to 2024 third quarter net income of $429.3 million, or $130.50 per diluted share. Consolidated revenues for the third quarter of 2025 totaled $2.61 billion, compared to $2.73 billion in the third quarter of 2024.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, consolidated revenues were $7.61 billion, a 1% decrease from $7.68 billion reported for the same period of 2024. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $976.0 million, a decrease of 20% when compared to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 of $1.22 billion. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $315.33, a decrease of 14% from $367.20 per diluted share for the same period of 2024.
Homebuilding
New orders in the third quarter of 2025 decreased by 16% to 4,735 units, when compared to 5,650 units in the third quarter of 2024. The average sales price of new orders in the third quarter of 2025 was $464,800, an increase of 3% when compared to the third quarter of 2024. The cancellation rate in the third quarter of 2025 was 19% compared to 15% in the third quarter of 2024. Settlements in the third quarter of 2025 decreased by 5% to 5,639 units, compared to 5,908 units in the third quarter of 2024. The average settlement price in the third quarter of 2025 was $454,000, which remained relatively flat when compared to the third quarter of 2024. Our backlog of homes sold but not settled as of September 30, 2025 decreased on a unit basis by 19% to 9,165 units and decreased on a dollar basis by 17% to $4.39 billion when compared to the respective backlog unit and dollar balances as of September 30, 2024.
Homebuilding revenues of $2.56 billion in the third quarter of 2025 decreased by 4% compared to homebuilding revenues of $2.68 billion in the third quarter of 2024. Gross profit margin in the third quarter of 2025 decreased to 21.0%, from 23.4% in the third quarter of 2024. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by higher lot costs, pricing pressure due to continued affordability challenges, and contract land deposit impairments totaling approximately $18.9 million. Income before tax from the homebuilding segment totaled $411.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of 18% when compared to the third quarter of 2024.
Mortgage Banking
Mortgage closed loan production in the third quarter of 2025 totaled $1.54 billion, a decrease of 7% when compared to the third quarter of 2024. Income before tax from the mortgage banking segment totaled $32.7 million in the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of 6% when compared to $34.9 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Effective Tax Rate
Our effective tax rate for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2025 was 22.8% and 24.5%, respectively, compared to 20.3% and 20.6% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate in each period is primarily attributable to a lower income tax benefit recognized for excess tax benefits from stock option exercises, which totaled $13.4 million and $19.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $23.1 million and $73.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.
