COLUMBIA, S.C.--()--United Homes Group, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: UHG) today announced results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Operating Results

For the fourth quarter 2023, net loss was $66.6 million, or $(1.38) per diluted share, which included change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $(69.1) million, with that change predominantly due to changes in fair value on potential earn-out consideration due to fluctuation in the stock price during the measurement period, representing a non-cash expense item. The earnout consideration would be paid in common shares upon reaching certain stock price hurdles. The Company is required to record the fair value of this earnout as derivative liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and to record changes in fair value of derivative liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, in each case until UHG shares reach certain predetermined values or expiration of the five year earnout period. Net income for the fourth quarter 2022 was $10.9 million, or $0.28 per diluted share. Adjusted book value1, which excludes derivative liabilities and goodwill, was $90.7 million as of December 31, 2023.

______________________________
1 Adjusted book value is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

"In the fourth quarter of 2023, UHG saw orders increase 8% over the same period a year ago despite higher rates and increased competition by larger builders in our market," said Michael Nieri, Chief Executive Officer of United Homes Group. "Trends have continued through the first months of 2024, with net new orders up 7.4% in January and February 2024, as compared to the same period a year ago."

Mr. Nieri continued, "Additionally, in January of 2024 we closed our third acquisition in just nine months of becoming a public company, acquiring Creekside Custom Homes in South Carolina. Creekside provides local scale in the high-growth coastal market and access to an attractive lot pipeline in a "land-light" friendly manner that will support accelerated growth in coming years."

Revenues for the fourth quarter 2023 were $116.8 million, compared to $115.1 million in the fourth quarter 2022. Home closings during the fourth quarter 2023 were 387 compared to 389 in the fourth quarter 2022. Net new home orders during the fourth quarter 2023 were 294 compared to 271 in the fourth quarter 2022 and net new home orders were 260 for the first two months of 2024. ASP of 338 production-built homes (which excludes 49 general contractor, custom homes and build to rent homes) closed during the fourth quarter 2023 was approximately $320,000, compared to $300,000 during the fourth quarter 2022 for 371 production-built homes (which excludes 18 general contractor and custom homes), representing a 6.7% increase.

Gross profit percentage during the fourth quarter of 2023 was 18.5% compared to 18.8% during the fourth quarter 2022. Adjusted gross profit percentage2 in the fourth quarter 2023 was 21.8%, compared to 20.7% in the fourth quarter 2022. UHG’s year-over-year gross profit percentage remained consistent as the Company continued to navigate a volatile market by offering attractive sales incentives to homebuyers.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") as a percentage of revenues was 15.8% in the fourth quarter 2023, which included $1.0 million of stock-based compensation and $0.8 million of transaction related expenses. Excluding these stock-based compensation and transaction related expenses, Adjusted SG&A3 for the fourth quarter 2023 was 14.3% of revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA4 during the fourth quarter 2023 was $10.0 million compared to $17.4 million during the fourth quarter 2022.

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2023 Operating Results

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, net income was $125.1 million, or $2.35 per diluted share, which included change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $115.9 million predominantly due to changes in fair value on potential earn-out consideration due to fluctuation in the stock price during the measurement period, representing a non-cash income item. Net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 was $69.5 million, or $1.81 per diluted share.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, revenues were $421.5 million, compared to $477.0 million for fiscal 2022. Home closings for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 were 1,383 compared to 1,605 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Net new home orders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 were 1,296 compared to 1,259 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Gross profit percentage for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 was 18.9% compared to 24.9% during the same period of fiscal year 2022. Adjusted gross profit percentage for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 was 21.4%, compared to 26.0% for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. This reduction in both gross profit percentage metrics is largely attributable to the Company offering attractive sales incentives to homebuyers as well as selling its remaining inventory that was constructed with higher lumber costs.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 was $40.5 million compared to $82.8 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Business Acquisitions

Rosewood Communities Acquisition

About United Homes Group, Inc.

UHG is a publicly traded residential builder headquartered in Columbia, SC. The company focuses on southeastern markets with 63 current active communities in South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia.

UHG employs a land-light operating strategy with a focus on the design, construction and sale of entry-level, first move up and second move up single-family houses. UHG currently designs, builds and sells detached single-family homes, and, to a lesser extent, attached single-family homes, including duplex homes and town homes in three major market regions in South Carolina: Midlands, Upstate, and Coastal, and also has a presence in Georgia and North Carolina. UHG seeks to operate its homebuilding business in high-growth markets, with substantial in-migrations and employment growth.

Under its land-light lot operating strategy, UHG controls its supply of finished building lots through lot purchase agreements with third parties including its Land Development Affiliates, which provide UHG with the right to purchase finished lots after they have been developed by the applicable third party. This land-light operating strategy provides UHG with the ability to amass a pipeline of lots without the same risks associated with acquiring and developing raw land.

As UHG reviews potential geographic markets into which it could expand its homebuilding business, either organically or through strategic acquisitions, it intends to focus on selecting markets with positive population and employment growth trends, favorable migration patterns, attractive housing affordability, low state and local income taxes, and desirable lifestyle and weather characteristics.

GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

THREE MONTHS AND FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 and 2022 (UNAUDITED)

Adjusted gross profit is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management of the Company as a supplemental measure in evaluating operating performance. The Company defines adjusted gross profit as gross profit excluding the effects of capitalized interest expensed in cost of sales, amortization included in homebuilding cost of sales (primarily adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions), and non-recurring remediation costs. The Company’s management believes this information is meaningful because it separates the impact that capitalized interest, purchase accounting adjustments, and non-recurring remediation costs directly expensed in cost of sales have on gross profit to provide a more specific measurement of the Company’s gross profits. However, because adjusted gross profit information excludes certain balances expensed in cost of sales, which have real economic effects and could impact the Company’s results of operations, the utility of adjusted gross profit information as a measure of the Company’s operating performance may be limited. Other companies may not calculate adjusted gross profit information in the same manner that the Company does. Accordingly, adjusted gross profit information should be considered only as a supplement to gross profit information as a measure of the Company’s performance.

The following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted gross profit to the GAAP financial measure of gross profit for each of the periods indicated.

GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

THREE MONTHS AND FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 and 2022 (UNAUDITED)

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management of the Company. The Company defines EBITDA as net income before (i) capitalized interest expensed in cost of sales, (ii) interest expensed in other (expense) income, net, (iii) depreciation and amortization, and (iv) taxes. UHG defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before stock-based compensation expense, transaction cost expense, non-recurring loss on disposal of leasehold improvements, non-recurring remediation costs, amortization included in homebuilding cost of sales (adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting in connection with acquisitions), and change in fair value of derivative liabilities. Management of the Company believes EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are useful because they provide a more effective evaluation of UHG’s operating performance and allow comparison of UHG’s results of operations from period to period without regard to UHG’s financing methods or capital structure or other items that impact comparability of financial results from period to period such as fluctuations in interest expense or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, or unusual items. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. UHG’s computations of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA of other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP financial measure of net income for each of the periods indicated.

Adjusted selling, general and administrative expense, or adjusted SG&A, is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management of UHG. UHG defines adjusted SG&A as SG&A, excluding the effects of stock-based compensation expense and transaction cost expense. Management of UHG believes adjusted SG&A provides useful information to investors because it enables an alternative assessment of the Company's operating results in a manner that is focused on its operating performance.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted SG&A to the GAAP financial measure of SG&A for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Adjusted book value is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management of UHG. UHG defines adjusted book value as total stockholders' equity (book value), excluding the effect of derivative instruments and goodwill. Management of UHG believes adjusted book value is useful to investors because it excludes the impact of fair value adjustments on derivative instruments and goodwill which are not expected to result in economic gain or loss.

The following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted book value to the GAAP financial measure of total stockholders' equity for the period indicated.
