NVR, Inc. Announces a 45% Increase in Earnings Per Share and 21%
New Order Growth for the Second Quarter of 2005
RESTON, Va., July 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NVR, Inc. (AMEX:NVR), one of
the nation's largest homebuilding and mortgage banking companies, today
announced that diluted earnings per share for its second quarter ended June 30,
2005 exceeded the 2004 second quarter by 45%. Net income for the 2005 second
quarter was $167,649,000, $21.42 per diluted share, compared to net income of
$115,970,000, $14.82 per diluted share, for the same period of 2004. Consolidated revenues increased 28% to $1,277,689,000 for the quarter when
compared to $1,001,376,000 for the same period of 2004. The Company reported
that new orders increased 21% to 4,829 units for the second quarter of 2005
when compared to the second quarter of 2004. Backlog at the end of the period
increased 13% to 9,554 units when compared to the same time last year. The
dollar value of the backlog units totaled $4,021,893,000 at the end of the June
2005 quarter, a 31% increase from a year earlier.
Homebuilding revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005, totaled
$1,257,248,000, 28% higher than the year earlier period. Income before tax
from the homebuilding segment totaled $263,597,000, an increase of 45% when
compared to the second quarter of the previous year. Gross profit margins
improved to 27.8% for the second quarter of 2005 when compared to 25.3% for the
same quarter of 2004. The margin improvement primarily resulted from the
ability to raise prices in certain markets that more than offset rising
material and land costs.
The Company reported that closed loan production from its mortgage banking
segment increased 36% during the June 2005 quarter when compared to the second
quarter of 2004. Operating income for the 2005 second quarter increased to
$13,510,000, a 21% increase from the same period of 2004.
For the six months ended June 30, 2005, consolidated revenues were
$2,231,121,000, 19% higher than the $1,878,169,000 reported for the same period
of 2004. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $285,579,000,
an increase of 32% when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004.
Earnings per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $35.68,
an increase of 30% from $27.38 per diluted share for the comparable period of
2004.
Because of the favorable backlog position at the beginning of the third quarter
the Company has increased its full year 2005 guidance to 20% growth in net
income when compared to 2004. The Company also stated that during the first
six months of 2005 it had repurchased approximately 506,000 shares of its
common stock.
