Management Commentary
“We have successfully delivered our third sequential quarter of year-over-year revenue, gross margin and pre-tax income growth, despite supply chain constraints,” said Patrick Zalupski, Chairman and CEO of DFH. “We’ve continued to see elevated consumer housing demand and price appreciation; however, industry-wide labor, material and supply chain challenges have impacted sequential gross margins and temporarily drawn out cycle times by a month longer than our historical averages. Despite the challenges in the industry, inclusive of MHI, we have a record backlog of 6,364 sold homes with a value of over $2.8 billion, and collectively, our owned and controlled land position is over 40,000 lots. Our high-performing culture has been tested daily over the past year and remains committed to delivering long-term value to our customers and shareholders, alike. As we look ahead, I am confident in our team’s ability to deliver record fourth quarter revenues and substantial revenue growth in fiscal 2022, when we convert the largest backlog in the Company’s history.”
Third Quarter 2021 Results for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2021
Home building revenues for the third quarter 2021 increased 27.9% to $361 million, compared to $283 million in the same year-ago quarter. Home closings increased 17% to 916, compared to 780 in the same year-ago quarter. Average sales price (ASP) of homes closed for the third quarter 2021 was $375,693, compared to $361,442 in the same year-ago quarter, primarily due to home price appreciation.
Home building gross margin in the third quarter 2021 improved 120 basis points to 16.0%, compared to 14.8% in the same year-ago quarter, primarily due to lower cost of capital. SG&A as a percent of home sales revenues was 8.9% in the third quarter 2021, compared to 7.0% in the same year-ago quarter, primarily as a result of extended cycle times due to supply challenges and as Management has built the Company’s headcount to support the record backlog.
Net new orders in the third quarter 2021 increased 12.3% to 1,301, compared to 1,159 in the same year-ago quarter, primarily due to increased community count. As expected, sales pace slowed in the third quarter when compared to the robust first half of 2021, as the Company manages sales pace to maximize margins. The cancellation rate remains within industry averages at 11.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 12.9% in the same year-ago nine-month period. At the end of the third quarter 2021, the Company had a record backlog 4,520 homes, valued at $1.8 billion, which represents record increases of 146% and 166%, respectively, when compared to the same year-ago quarter. The average sales price in backlog as of September 30, 2021, was $402,500. The Company believes the backlog of homes sold is the best indicator for future growth and expects a moderate increase in the average sales price of homes closed in future quarters.
Net income attributable to DFH in the third quarter of 2021 was $19.1 million, or$0.20 per diluted share, compared to net income of $22.5 million in the third quarter of 2020*. Excluding the $4.0 million income tax expense in the third quarter of 2021, which was not applicable to DFH in the third quarter of 2020 prior to its corporate reorganization, net income attributable to DFH would have increased 3% in the third quarter of 2021.
The Company recorded an increase in contingent consideration of $0.6 million in the third quarter primarily in relation to the H&H Homes acquisition. At the time of the H&H Homes acquisition, the Company recorded a contingent consideration liability based on the expected value of future earn out payments of the acquiree. This liability is remeasured to fair value quarterly and the adjustment is recorded in other expense.
*DFH completed their initial public offering on January 21, 2021 and does not have a comparable earnings per diluted share for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020.
Subsequent Events
On October 1, 2021, DFH completed the acquisition of the homebuilding, mortgage banking and title insurance assets of privately held Texas homebuilder McGuyer Homebuilders, Inc. and related affiliates (collectively “MHI”), for $471 million in cash at closing, subject to post-closing adjustments. As of October 1, 2021, MHI had approximately 104 active communities, a backlog of 1,844 homes with a value in excess of $1 billion and 5,500 lots under control.
Full Year 2021 Outlook
The Company is updating its outlook and now expects 4,900 to 5,300 home closings for DFH, inclusive of MHI, compared to a previous outlook for 5,000 to 6,000 home closings due to longer cycle times as a result of industry wide supply chain challenges. Any further COVID-19 governmental restrictions on land development, home construction or home sales or additional supply chain challenges could negatively impact the Company’s ability to achieve this number of home closings in 2021.

4)The Company calculated earnings per share (“EPS”) based on net income attributable to common stockholders for the period January 21, 2021 through September 30, 2021 over the weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the same period. EPS was calculated prospectively for the period subsequent to the Company’s initial public offering and corporate reorganization as described in Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies, resulting in 92,521,482 shares of common stock outstanding as of the closing of the initial public offering. The total outstanding shares of common stock are made up of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, which participate equally in their ratable ownership share of the Company. For the three and the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the diluted shares of common stock outstanding were 92,695,197 and 92,658,878 respectively. Diluted shares were calculated by using the treasury stock method for stock grants and the if-converted method for the conversion option to common stock related to preferred stock that is available in the event the company has redeemed the stock in October of 2026.
