Can be accessed through Landsea Home's website and in its SEC the call today are John Ho, Landsea's Chief Executive Officer; Mike Forsum, President and Chief Operating Officer; and Chris Porter, Chief Financial that, I'd like to turn the call over to John. John Ho Good morning and thank you for joining us today as we go over our results for the first quarter of 2025 to provide an update on our Homes recorded a net loss of $7.3 million in the first quarter for a net loss of $0.20 per diluted share. Home sales revenue increased 2% year over year on a 27% increase in deliveries. Partially offset by a 20% decline in average closing in average prices were due in part to a mixed shift from higher price California communities to a higher contribution of closings from our Florida and Texas incentive activity during the quarter also contributed to the decrease in ASPs. Net new orders for the quarter increased 11% year over year on a sales pace of 3.0 homes per community per we are encouraged by the demand elasticity we saw during the quarter as buyers responded to declines in mortgage rates and higher incentives. Border activity started off slowly to begin the year, then picked up as the quarter remains an important issue for most buyers, so financing incentives for a key driver of sales during the continue to balance pace versus price at each of our communities with a slight lean towards pace, all things being equal. As a production home builder, we feel it is important to price the market, maintain a base level of sales also made the strategic decision to sell through some of our spec home inventory in an effort to return to a more balanced approach between spec sales and built to order homes, with 67% of our first quarter deliveries also sold in the same goal is to return to a fifty-fifty split between specs and build to order closings over time. There are several reasons for this strategic build times have returned to pre-COVID levels, which has shortened the time frame between selling and closing on a pre-sold the margin opportunities are much greater with a pre-sold home, as it gives us the ability to charge more for lock premiums and other new home also allows the buyer to pick out high margin options and upgrades for their home as opposed to the standardized packages found in spec reducing our spec levels lowers the cash tied up and standing inventory. It gives us better visibility into our future closings with the buildup of a solid balanced strategies also aligned with the company's approach to home building, which emphasizes product differentiation as a way to attract customers and grow market believe our core customer is a more discerning buyer who wants more out of a home than just a place to live. That is why we have developed and refined our high performance home series to offer the latest in new home technology and the pandemic has been over for some time, people continue to spend more time at home than ever before. Whether it's a work from home situation, in-home entertainment, or just dining feel that this stay at home dynamic plays into our strengths and believe buyers will pay a premium for a home that fits their lifestyle. Of course, there are other factors that play into the decision-making process when buying a home, the biggest of which is is why we continue to work with buyers to find a new home solution and monthly payment that suits their incentives remain a popular option for our customers, looking to lower the monthly cost of home ownership, serve as a great selling tool, with buyers still looking at both new and resale incentives do, however, come at a cost to our company, representing 9% of the average closing price in the first optimistic that the combination of better pricing strategies and a higher mix of pre-sold homes will offset some of the negative effects the incentives have had on our head into the latter half of the spring selling season. We continue to see opportunities to refine our operations and increase our size and scale in the markets we currently build there is some uncertainty surrounding the near-term macro environment, we believe the long-term outlook for our industry remains positive, given the need for additional housing supply, the desire for home ownership that is on display at our communities each of punctuation is more important than ever when selling homes in uncertain times, and we feel that having communities and desirable locations and new home designs that stand out from the competition give us a distinct a result, I remain optimistic about Landsea's ability to compete and grow our operations over that, I'd like to turn the call over to Mike, who'll provide more details on our Michael Forsum Thanks John, good morning to delivered 643 homes during the first quarter of 2025, which was near the midpoint of ours of 600 to 700 closings. Florida led the way in terms of delivery contribution, followed by Arizona and John mentioned, the 20% decline in ASPs was a result of a mixed shift away from higher priced communities in California, combined with greater contributions from lower price regions. ASPs were actually up year over year in Florida and Texas, while ASPs in Arizona declined only sales pace in the first quarter came at the lower end of our targeted range of 3 to 4 sales per community per month. Arizona posted the highest absorption pace at 3.8, followed by Colorado at 3.7, and Florida at I would characterize current new home demand conditions as uneven, with consistent traffic levels being offset by hesitancy to move forward on behalf of buyers. In most instances, however, we can find a way to keep conversion levels steady with the right combination of incentives and pricing conditions continue to be favorable with good trade labor availability and steady flow of materials to our job lessons learned during the pandemic and the best practices put in place have resulted in a more streamlined home building operation for a company, leading to much faster backlog conversions and build have not seen any impact from the announced tariffs or the increased scrutiny on migrant labor so far. Plot cost inflation will continue to be a margin headwind for a company in the near term, but we have had success renegotiating the terms of our lot remain disciplined in our approach to new land deals and have seen similar discipline from our competitors, giving us optimism that future land prices will reflect the realities of today's new home believe the home building ecosystem self-corrects over time, and the industries' move, a more land light operating model may accelerate the timing of that my sense is that we are outselling our competition based on our first quarter absorption pace relative to our publicly traded we have experienced some margin compression as a result of our use of incentives, we feel it is the appropriate strategy given the current market conditions and the opportunities to reinvest our capital on the other side of increased focus on pre-sales versus specs should alleviate some of that margin pressure and give us better visibility through the buildup of so I'd like to turn the call over to Chris who will provide more detail on our financial results for the first quarter and give an update on our Christopher Porter Thanks, Mike. As Mike and John mentioned, our top line growth of 11% on orders, 27% on deliveries, and 2% on home sales revenue were bright spots in the quarter. Florida delivered a strong 52% delivery growth and a 53% revenue growth in the quarter. Texas also pulled its weight with 126 deliveries and $48 million in home sales as a percentage of our portfolio was 20% of our home deliveries and 16% of our revenue. Discounts and incentives for the quarter continued to weigh on gross margins though, representing 9.6% of our gross home sales incentives, which followed the 10-year treasury were volatile through the quarter, starting out at elevated levels, lowered some in the end of January through mid-February, and then peaked again in drove our home sales gross margin before inventory impairments of $1.5 million to 13.5%, the midpoint of our guidance. Adjusted gross margin was reported at a consistent 20%.The $1.5 million inventory impairment was on a DFW asset where we were closing out homes and represented about 50% of our gross margin impact. Interest capitalized through cost of goods sold represented 4.6% of gross margin, and the amortization of $5.6 million in purchase price accounting in the quarter represented another 1.9% SG&A as a percentage of home sales revenue was 17%, a 180 basis point increase primarily related to higher sales and marketing costs. Despite not having DFW operations in our comparable numbers from last year, our G&A expenses were up only $731,000 or 2.8% over the first quarter of last year but remained flat as a percentage of home sales of these factored into our reported net loss for the quarter of $7.25 million or $0.20 per share. On an adjusted basis, our net loss reduced to $1.73 million or $0.05 per expect incentive levels to remain elevated through 2025 with the actual cost fluctuating with the overall mortgage rate environment. Although after the first of the year, consistently saw rate downs in the 4.99% to 5.2% quick move in homes towards late February and throughout March, these moved to 3.99% in many of our markets as we competed for closings. As we look into the second quarter, we would anticipate in incentive levels to be in the 7% to 9% to our balance sheet, we ended the quarter with $256 million in liquidity, $52.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $204 million in availability under our revolver. This was a roughly $15 million dollar improvement from the fourth debt to total capital ratio was 52.1% at the end of the quarter. A 30 basis point increase from year end, and our net debt to total capital ratio finished the quarter at 48.3%.

In the following table, we calculate gross margins adjusting for interest in cost of sales, real estate inventories impairments, and purchase price accounting for acquired work in process inventory. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be used as a substitute for the Company's operating results in accordance with GAAP. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe the below information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that indebtedness, impairments, and acquisitions have on our gross margins and allows for comparability to previous periods and competitors.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management in evaluating operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before (i) income tax (benefit) expense, (ii) interest expenses, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) real estate inventories impairment and abandoned project costs, (v) purchase accounting adjustments for acquired work in process inventory related to business combinations, (vi) loss on debt modification, (vii) transaction costs, and (viii) write-off of deferred offering costs. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest, effective tax rates, levels of depreciation and amortization, and items considered to be non-recurring. Accordingly, we believe this measure is useful for comparing our core operating performance from period to period. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 2024 (dollars in thousands) Net (loss) income $ (7,089 ) $ 734 Benefit for income taxes (2,808 ) (30 ) Interest in cost of sales 13,915 10,570 Depreciation and amortization expense 2,148 1,320 EBITDA 6,166 12,594 Real estate inventories impairment and abandoned project costs 1,525 256 Purchase price accounting in cost of home sales 5,619 2,456 Transaction costs 211 1,728 Adjusted EBITDA $ 13,521 $ 17,034 Adjusted Net Income Adjusted Net Income to Landsea Homes is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe is useful to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating and understanding our operating results without the effect of certain expenses that were historically pushed down by our parent company at the time and other non-recurring items. We believe excluding these items provides a more comparable assessment of our financial results from period to period. Adjusted Net Income to Landsea Homes is calculated by excluding the effects of related party interest that was pushed down by our prior parent company, purchase accounting adjustments for acquired work in process inventory related to business combinations, transaction costs, and real estate inventories impairment and abandoned project costs, and is tax-effected using a blended statutory tax rate. We adjust for the expense of related party interest pushed down from our prior parent company as we have no obligation to repay the debt and related interest. In the comparable prior period, we did not adjust for abandoned project costs or transaction costs. We have made that change to be more consistent with our adjusted EBITDA add-backs. We adjusted the prior period presented herein to maintain comparability between the periods. Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 2024 (dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts) Net (loss) income attributable to Landsea Homes Corporation $ (7,254 ) $ 190 Real estate inventories impairment and abandoned project costs 1,525 256 Pre-Merger capitalized related party interest included in cost of sales 9 29 Purchase price accounting for acquired inventory 5,619 2,456 Transaction costs 211 1,728 Total adjustments 7,364 4,469 Tax-effected adjustments(1) 5,521 3,315 Adjusted net (loss) income attributable to Landsea Homes Corporation $ (1,733 ) $ 3,505 Earnings per share Basic $ (0.20 ) $ 0.01 Diluted $ (0.20 ) $ 0.01 Adjusted earnings per share Basic $ (0.05 ) $ 0.10 Diluted $ (0.05 ) $ 0.10 Weighted shares outstanding Weighted average common shares outstanding used in EPS - basic 36,334,207 36,279,679 Weighted average common shares outstanding used in EPS - diluted 36,334,207 36,798,722 (1) Our tax-effected adjustments are based on our federal rate and a blended state rate adjusted for certain discrete items. Net Debt to Total Capital The following table presents the ratio of debt to capital as well as the ratio of net debt to total capital, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The ratio of debt to capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing total debt, net of issuance costs, by total capital (sum of total debt, net of issuance costs, plus total equity). The non-GAAP ratio of net debt to total capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is total debt, net of issuance costs, less cash and cash equivalents as well as cash held in escrow to the extent necessary to reduce the debt balance to zero) by total capital. The most comparable GAAP financial measure is the ratio of debt to capital. We believe the ratio of net debt to total capital is a relevant financial measure for investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of our ability to obtain financing. We believe that by deducting our cash from our debt, we provide a measure of our indebtedness that takes into account our cash liquidity. We believe this provides useful information as the ratio of debt to capital does not take into account our liquidity and we believe that the ratio of net debt to total capital provides supplemental information by which our financial position may be considered. See table below reconciling this non-GAAP measure to the ratio of debt to capital.
