Insights

Lennar's Q2 profits halved as housing softens; maintains volume despite 9% price drop and compressed margins.

Lennar's Q2 2025 results reveal significant profitability challenges despite modest volume growth. Net earnings plunged 50% year-over-year to $477 million ($1.81 per share) from $954 million in Q2 2024, while gross margins contracted substantially to 17.8% from 22.6%.

The company is clearly prioritizing volume over price in a deteriorating market, with deliveries up 2% despite a 9% decline in average sales price to $389,000. This strategic shift comes with significant margin sacrifice, as management explicitly acknowledges using incentives to drive affordability amid persistent high mortgage rates and weakening consumer confidence.

SG&A expenses have deteriorated to 8.8% of home sales revenue from 7.5% last year, reflecting both increased marketing spend and reduced leverage from lower revenue. This 1.3% increase in overhead relative to sales further pressures bottom-line results.

Despite these challenges, Lennar continues demonstrating operational discipline. Their production-focused approach has reduced cycle times by 12% year-over-year to 132 days and improved inventory turns to 1.8x from 1.6x. The company maintains its asset-light strategy with 98% of homesites controlled rather than owned, providing flexibility in an uncertain market.

Lennar's balance sheet remains strong with $5.4 billion in total liquidity and a conservative 11.0% homebuilding debt-to-capital ratio. During the quarter, they managed their capital structure by issuing $700 million in new notes, repaying $500 million in maturing debt, and repurchasing $517 million in common stock.

Forward guidance suggests management expects current conditions to persist, with projected Q3 deliveries of 22,000-23,000 homes, average selling prices of $380,000-$385,000 (indicating continued pricing pressure), and gross margins stabilizing around 18%. This outlook confirms the company's strategy of sacrificing near-term profitability to maintain market position during this housing slowdown.

MIAMI, June 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lennar Corporation (NYSE: LEN and LEN.B), one of the nation's leading homebuilders, today reported results for its second quarter ended May 31, 2025. Second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2025 were $477 million, or $1.81 per diluted share, compared to second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2024 of $954 million, or $3.45 per diluted share. Excluding mark-to-market losses on technology investments, second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2025 were $499 million, or $1.90 per diluted share. Excluding mark-to-market losses on technology investments and one-time gain on the sale of a technology investment, second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2024 were $935 million or $3.38 per diluted share.

Stuart Miller, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of Lennar, said, "While we continue to see softness in the housing market due to affordability challenges and a decline in consumer confidence, we adhered to our strategy of driving starts, sales, and closings in order to build long-term efficiencies in our business."

"During the quarter, we drove new orders to 22,601 homes, within our guidance, and delivered 20,131 homes, also within our guidance, as we continued to focus on matching production pace with sales pace. Accordingly, we ended the quarter with limited inventory of 2,900 homes, which is fewer than two completed, unsold homes per community, and continues to be within our historical range."

"Reflecting softer market conditions, our average sales price, net of incentives, declined to $389,000. As mortgage interest rates remained higher and consumer confidence continued to weaken, we drove volume with starts while incentivizing sales to enable affordability and help consumers to purchase homes. Additionally, our gross margin was 18.0% excluding purchase accounting, which met guidance, and our SG&A expenses ran higher at 8.8%, reflecting further investment and engagement in future efficiencies. We produced a 9.2% net margin, all contributing to earnings of $477 million, or $1.81 per diluted share."

"During the quarter, our balance sheet remained strong. We repaid $500 million of our 4.75% senior notes due in May 2025, issued $700 million in debt, and repurchased $517 million of our common stock. We ended the quarter with $5.4 billion in liquidity, and a homebuilding debt to total capital of 11.0%."

Jon Jaffe, Lennar's Co-Chief Executive Officer and President, added, "On the operational front, our starts pace and sales pace in the second quarter were 5.1 homes and 4.7 homes per community per month, respectively, as we continue to move towards an even flow operating model. Our production-first focus led to a cycle time of 132 days this quarter, 12% lower than last year, which has a positive impact on our construction efficiency. In addition, our inventory turn improved to 1.8 times, compared to 1.6 last year, in part reflecting these efficiencies and, in part, as a result of our asset-light land strategy."

Mr. Miller concluded, "We continue to focus on consistent volume and pace as we drive efficiencies through every part of our platform in order to realize improved margin even as market conditions soften. As we look ahead to the third quarter, we expect new orders between 22,000 and 23,000 homes, deliveries between 22,000 and 23,000 homes, and expect our gross margin to remain approximately 18%, all depending on market conditions."

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2025 COMPARED TO
THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2024

As previously announced on February 10, 2025, Lennar Corporation completed its acquisition of Rausch Coleman Homes ("Rausch"). Prior year information includes only stand-alone data for Lennar Corporation for the three months ended May 31, 2024.

Homebuilding

Revenues from home sales decreased 7% in the second quarter of 2025 to $7.8 billion from $8.4 billion in the second quarter of 2024. Revenues were lower primarily due to a 9% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered, partially offset by a 2% increase in the number of home deliveries. New home deliveries increased to 20,131 homes in the second quarter of 2025 from 19,690 homes in the second quarter of 2024. The average sales price of homes delivered was $389,000 in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $426,000 in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in average sales price of homes delivered in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to continued weakness in the market.

Gross margins on home sales were $1.4 billion, or 17.8% (18.0% excluding purchase accounting), in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.9 billion, or 22.6%, in the second quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2025, gross margins decreased due to an increase in land costs year over year, as well as a decrease in revenue per square foot, which was partially offset by a decrease in construction costs as the Company continues to focus on construction cost savings.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $689 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $630 million in the second quarter of 2024. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 8.8% in the second quarter of 2025, from 7.5% in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to less leverage as a result of lower revenues and an increase in marketing and selling expenses.

Financial Services

Operating earnings for the Financial Services segment were $157 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $146 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increase in operating earnings was primarily due to higher profit per locked loan in the mortgage business as a result of higher margins.

Ancillary Businesses

Operating loss for the Multifamily segment was $15 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to an operating loss of $20 million in the second quarter of 2024. Operating loss for the Lennar Other segment was $53 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to an operating loss of $28 million in the second quarter of 2024. The Lennar Other operating loss for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to losses on the Company's technology investments. The Lennar Other operating loss for the second quarter of 2024 includes $22 million of mark-to-market losses on the Company's publicly traded technology investments and a $47 million one-time gain on the sale of a technology investment.

Tax Rate

In the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, the Company had tax provisions of $160 million and $300 million, which resulted in an overall effective income tax rate of 25.1% and 23.9%, respectively. For both periods, the Company's effective income tax rate included state income tax expense and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by tax credits. The increase in the effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2025 from the prior year was primarily due to a decrease in solar tax credits.

OTHER TRANSACTIONS

Senior Notes

In May 2025, the Company issued $700 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.20% senior notes due 2030 (the "5.20% senior notes"). The Company utilized the net proceeds from the issuance of the 5.20% senior notes primarily to pay off $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.75% senior notes due May 2025.

Share Repurchases

In the second quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 4.7 million shares of its common stock for $517 million at an average share price of $109.79.

Although management finds EBIT to be an important measure in conducting and evaluating the Company's operations, this measure has limitations as an analytical tool as it is not reflective of the actual profitability generated by the Company during the period. Management compensates for the limitations of using EBIT by using this non-GAAP measure only to supplement the Company's GAAP results. Due to the limitations discussed, EBIT should not be viewed in isolation, as it is not a substitute for GAAP measures.

Net homebuilding debt to total capital is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net homebuilding debt (homebuilding debt less homebuilding cash and cash equivalents) divided by total capital (net homebuilding debt plus stockholders' equity). The Company believes the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capital is a relevant and a useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in homebuilding operations. However, because net homebuilding debt to total capital is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, this non-GAAP financial measure should be used to supplement the Company's GAAP results.
