“Our second quarter results demonstrated our ability to successfully grow EBITDA while reducing leverage. Although uncertainty in the broader economy contributed to an uneven start to the spring selling season, we were encouraged by more consistent new home orders as the quarter progressed,” said Allan Merrill, CEO of Beazer Homes.
Mr. Merrill continued, “We are pleased with our results for the quarter and so far this year and look forward to further progress on our joint “2B-10” and deleveraging objectives in the second half of the year.”
