Beazer Homes Returns to Profitability with Full Year Fiscal 2014 Net Income from Continuing Operations of $34.9 Million

ATLANTA, November 12, 2014 - Beazer Homes USA, Inc. (NYSE: BZH) (www.beazer.com) today announced its financial results for the quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.
The Company reported net income from continuing operations of $34.9 million for full year fiscal 2014, a year-over-year increase of $67.1 million, and the Company’s first full year of profitability since 2006. Adjusted EBITDA was $128.3 million for the year, up $42.0 million from fiscal 2013. Financial results for the quarter and year ended September 30, 2014 included $4.9 million in unexpected warranty charges.
“We are very pleased to report positive net income for fiscal year 2014,” said Allan Merrill, CEO of Beazer Homes. “Returning to profitability represents a key milestone for our employees and shareholders - particularly because it was achieved from fewer new home communities, lower home closings and in a challenging home sales environment. With an expanded community count as we enter fiscal 2015, I’m confident we have built a foundation that will deliver greater profitability in the years ahead.”

One year ago, the company introduced a multi-year target to achieve $2 billion in revenue and a 10% Adjusted EBITDA margin leading to $200 million in Adjusted EBITDA, which it called the "2B-10 Plan". At that time, revenue for the trailing twelve months was $1.288 billion, the Adjusted EBITDA margin was 6.7% and Adjusted EBITDA was $86 million. Speaking to the progress made in year one of the 2B-10 Plan, Mr. Merrill continued, “Higher average selling prices, stronger than expected homebuilding gross margins and sustained solid sales absorption rates allowed us to make significant progress against our 2B-10 targets in the past year. For fiscal 2014, improvements in both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA margin led to Adjusted EBITDA of $128 million, up $42 million, allowing us to close 37% of the 2B-10 gap in Adjusted EBITDA."

Looking ahead to fiscal 2015 and beyond Mr. Merrill continued, "Our higher community count should lead to growth in new home orders, closings and average selling prices, allowing us to make further improvements in Adjusted EBITDA in 2015 and positioning us to reach our 2B-10 objectives by the end of 2016.”







Q4 Results from Continuing Operations (unless otherwise specified)
The Company closed out fiscal 2014 with $60.3 million in net income for the fourth quarter, compared with $11.3 million a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA improved $15.0 million to $56.5 million for the quarter. Homebuilding gross margin, excluding impairments, abandonments and interest amortized to cost of sales was 21.3% for the quarter.
The Company's fourth quarter and full year net income included several significant items:
•
A loss on extinguishment of debt of $19.9 million, primarily recorded in the Company's fiscal third quarter
•
An IRS appeals case was approved in our favor resulting in a cash refund and income tax benefit of $28.5 million
•
Beazer Pre-Owned Homes was sold generating a gain of $6.3 million
•
Reserves for uncertain tax positions were reversed due to lapses in statutes of limitation and closing of audits during fiscal year 2014 resulting in a non-cash tax benefit of $13.9 million
•
Impairments and abandonments of $8.3 million for the fiscal year with $5.4 million occurring in the fourth quarter
•
Unexpected warranty reserves totaling $4.9 million in cost of sales during the fourth quarter
The unexpected warranty charges indicated above related to water intrusion issues in homes built, on average, more than 7 years ago located in Florida and New Jersey. While the Company believes these costs are non-recurring in nature, they were included in cost of sales and therefore reduced all measurements of income in fourth quarter homebuilding gross margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income. Excluding these charges, the quarter’s homebuilding gross margin would have been 22.3% and Adjusted EBITDA would have been $61.4 million.

Full Year Results from Continuing Operations (unless otherwise specified)
The Company reported significantly improved results for fiscal 2014. In addition to reporting positive net income and Adjusted EBITDA, which reflected a 49% increase over fiscal 2013, homebuilding gross margin, excluding impairments, abandonments and interest amortized to cost of sales improved 190 basis points to 21.9%, and average selling prices improved 12.6% to $284.8 thousand.
Excluding the $4.9 million in unexpected warranty charges noted before the fourth quarter results table, full year gross margin, excluding impairments, abandonments and interest amortized to cost of sales, would have been 22.2% and full year Adjusted EBITDA would have been $133.2 million.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, debt extinguishment, impairments and abandonments) to total company net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is provided for each period discussed below. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors in understanding and comparing the operating characteristics of homebuilding activities by eliminating many of the differences in companies' respective capitalization, tax position and level of impairments.
