“During the second quarter 2015 we remained focused on achieving profitability. During the quarter we made further progress on improving our gross margins on a sequential basis while also rationalizing our G&A expense,” stated Dustin Bogue, President and Chief Executive Officer of UCP. “Our growth in deliveries though traditional dirt sales versus spec is resulting in steady improvement in our backlog units and margins. We are also more actively monitoring our G&A expense and remain committed to establishing a more efficient cost base to leverage our rising community count and net new home orders. Into the second half of 2015, we aim to continue growing our business in a disciplined manner to capitalize on the favorable demand environment in our markets and realize additional benefits from the incremental improvements we are making in our operations.”
Second Quarter 2015 Operating Results
Total consolidated revenues including homebuilding, land development and other revenues, for the second quarter 2015 were $54.7 million, compared to $63.6 million in the prior year period, attributable to lower land development revenue.
Revenue from homebuilding operations in the second quarter 2015 grew 1.5% to $50.8 million, compared to $50.0 million for the prior year period. The improvement was primarily the result of an increase in the number of homes delivered to 154 during the second quarter, compared to 138 homes during the prior year period. The growth in deliveries was partly due to an increase in the number of average selling communities to 29 in the second quarter, compared to an average of 27 selling communities in the prior year period. Active selling communities consists of those communities where we have more than 15 homes remaining to sell. The average selling price for home sales was approximately $330,000 during the second quarter of 2015, compared to approximately $362,000 during the prior year period. The reduction in average selling price was primarily a result of geographic mix.
Net new home orders in the quarter increased 54.9% to 206 from 133 in the prior year period, primarily as the result of an increase in average active selling communities. Unit backlog at the end of the quarter was 274, compared to 124 at the end of prior year period and backlog on a dollar basis increased to $112.1 million, compared to $39.7 million at the end of prior year period.
Consolidated gross margin percentage in the second quarter 2015 was 17.0%, compared to 18.8% in the prior year period. Homebuilding gross margin percentage was 17.1%, compared to 17.9% in the prior year period. Adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 19.0%, compared to 19.9% in the prior year period, due to a shift in product and regional mix of the homes sold, but increased compared to 18.6% in the first quarter 2015.
Sales and marketing expense for the second quarter 2015 was $4.4 million, compared to $3.8 million in the same prior year period, due to the increase in homes delivered and the number of selling communities being marketed. As a percentage of total revenue, sales and marketing expense was 8.0% in the second quarter, compared to 5.9% in the prior year period, primarily as a result of a higher transaction cost per home.
General and administrative expense for the current quarter was $6.5 million, compared to $6.9 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expense was 11.8% for the second quarter, compared to 10.9% for the prior year period, as a result of lower land development revenue which more than offset cost rationalizations and a reduction in fixed costs.
Net loss attributable to shareholders of UCP was $0.7 million, or $0.08 per share, compared to net income attributable to shareholders of UCP of $0.2 million, or $0.02 per share, in the prior year period. The Company’s weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding was 7.9 million, compared to 7.9 million shares in the prior year quarter.
Total lots owned and controlled increased to 7,441, compared to 6,368 at December 31, 2014. The Company continues to actively pursue opportunities to acquire land in desirable and high growth areas in its attractive markets.

(1) | Consolidated adjusted gross margin percentage, homebuilding adjusted gross margin percentage and land development adjusted gross margin percentage are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. Adjusted gross margin is defined as gross margin plus capitalized interest, impairment and abandonment charges. We use adjusted gross margin information as a supplemental measure when evaluating our operating performance. We believe this information is meaningful, because it isolates the impact that leverage and non-cash impairment and abandonment charges have on gross margin. However, because adjusted gross margin information excludes interest expense and impairment and abandonment charges, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results, the utility of adjusted gross margin information as a measure of our operating performance is limited. In addition, other companies may not calculate gross margin information in the same manner that we do. Accordingly, adjusted gross margin information should be considered only as a supplement to gross margin information as a measure of our performance. The table above provides a reconciliation of adjusted gross margin numbers to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure. |

(1) | The ratio of net debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is debt less cash and cash equivalents) by the sum of net debt plus stockholders’ and member's equity. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure is the ratio of debt-to-capital. We believe the ratio of net debt-to-capital is a relevant financial measure for investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of our ability to obtain financing. We reconcile this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure to the ratio of debt-to-capital in the table above. The Company’s calculation of net debt-to-capital ratio might not be comparable with other issuers or issuers in other industries. |
