Item 2.02.     Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On March 9, 2016, Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its preliminary financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended January 31, 2016. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

 

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

 

The attached earnings press release contains information about EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is net loss. A reconciliation of EBIT, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net loss is contained in the earnings press release. The earnings press release contains information about Loss Before Income Taxes Excluding Land-Related Charges, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is Loss Before Income Taxes. A reconciliation of Loss Before Income Taxes Excluding Land-Related Charges to Loss Before Income Taxes is contained in the earnings press release.

 

Management believes EBITDA to be relevant and useful information as EBITDA is a standard measure commonly reported and widely used by analysts, investors and others to measure our financial performance and our ability to service our debt obligations. EBITDA is also one of several metrics used by our management to measure the cash generated from our operations. EBITDA does not take into account substantial costs of doing business, such as income taxes and interest expense. While many in the financial community consider EBITDA to be an important measure of comparative operating performance, it should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, loss before income taxes, net loss, cash flow (used in) provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance and liquidity prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that are presented on the financial statements included in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, our calculation of EBITDA may be different than the calculation used by other companies, and, therefore, comparability may be affected.

 

Management believes Loss Before Income Taxes Excluding Land-Related Charges to be relevant and useful information because it provides a better metric of the Company’s operating performance. Loss Before Income Taxes Excluding Land-Related Charges should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, loss before income taxes, net loss and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that are presented on the financial statements included in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, our calculation of Loss Before Income Taxes Excluding Land-Related Charges may be different than the calculation used by other companies, and, therefore, comparability may be affected.

RESULTS FOR the ThrEE MONTH PERIOD ENDED January 31, 2016:

Assuming no changes in current market conditions, we reiterate our prior guidance that total revenues for all of fiscal 2016 are expected to be between $2.7 billion and $3.1 billion and pretax profit excluding land related charges, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt and other non-recurring items such as legal settlements are expected to be between $40 million and $100 million for all of fiscal 2016.

 

COMMENTS FROM MANAGEMENT/Updated Strategic focus:

 

“We are pleased by our strong start to the fiscal year, which was highlighted by an 83% increase in adjusted EBITDA and a 49% increase in contract backlog dollars,” stated Ara K. Hovnanian, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. “During our first quarter, our 29% total revenue growth resulted in a 500 basis point improvement in our total SG&A and total interest ratios in the aggregate. Rather than focusing on additional revenue growth beyond 2016, we now plan to focus on deleveraging our balance sheet and maximizing our profitability. As part of this strategy we have decided to exit the Minneapolis, MN and Raleigh, NC markets. Additionally, we plan to wind down our operations in Tampa, FL and the San Francisco Bay Area in Northern California by delivering the remaining homes in our existing communities. We are confident these decisions will lead to continued efficiencies and ultimately improved financial performance,” concluded Mr. Hovnanian.
