PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE: GRBK) (鈥渨e,鈥�, 鈥渙ur,鈥� 鈥淕reen Brick鈥� or the 鈥淐ompany鈥�) today reported record results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

鈥淥ur strategic focus on infill and infill-adjacent locations, coupled with our self-development strategy, continued to yield strong results for Green Brick. Driven by strong home closings, we commenced 2025 with 11.8% year-over-year growth in homebuilding revenue to $495 million, a record for any first quarter in company history. Furthermore, we maintained our leading position among our public peers with respect to homebuilding gross margins even with the affordability challenges created by the elevated interest rate environment, while experiencing only a modest year-over-year decline of 220 bps to 31.2%,鈥� said Jim Brickman, CEO and Co-Founder. 鈥淒iluted EPS for the first quarter decreased year-over-year 8.2% to $1.67 primarily due to the sale of our 49.9% interest in Challenger Homes in Q1 2024, which benefited last year鈥檚 earnings by $0.21 per share. Excluding this one-time benefit, Diluted EPS in Q1 2024 was $1.61. Taking that into account, 2025 underlying earnings grew 3.7% in Q1 2025 compared to the prior year.鈥�

鈥淎t the same time, we experienced a healthy spring selling season evidencing more typical seasonality, which aligned with our first quarter expectations. Our net new orders in the first quarter increased 26% sequentially and 3.3% year-over-year, reaching a record of 1,106 homes. Despite a more challenging economic environment, overall incentives for new orders increased only 30 bps sequentially from 6.4% of sales price in Q4 2025 to 6.7% in Q1 2025. Moreover, incentive levels declined steadily throughout the quarter, ending at 6.3% in March. Our quarterly absorption rate per average active selling community was 10.6 and our cancellation rate was only 6.1%, the lowest among public homebuilders. Looking ahead, even with strong closings during the quarter, the number of homes in backlog increased 29% from Q4 2024 to 864 homes in Q1 2025.鈥�

鈥淲e continued to invest in future growth during the first quarter, increasing our total lots owned and controlled to over 40,500. Of these owned and controlled lots, we intend to self-develop approximately 97.9% of these lots, which gives us better control of pace and deliveries, as well as contributes to our industry-leading margins, Additionally, as part of our commitment to returning value to shareholders, we bought back approximately 668,000 shares of stock for $38.3 million in 2025 through the end of April,鈥� said Mr. Brickman.

鈥淲hile the duration and extent of the impact from tariffs remains unclear, we are diligently monitoring the market conditions and working closely with our entire supply chain regarding recent economic developments and approaches to mitigate any potential impact of the tariffs. Recognizing the heightened importance of liquidity in the current period of economic uncertainty and volatility, Green Brick ended the quarter with $103 million in cash, and we currently have $330 million in available capacity on our revolving credit facility. Our investment grade balance sheet and low financial leverage we believe provides us with flexibility to navigate and adapt to evolving market conditions, ensuring we have capital available for strategic opportunities as they arise,鈥� concluded Mr. Brickman.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, we utilize certain financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, specifically adjusted homebuilding gross margin, net debt to total capital, and adjusted EPS. We present these measures because we believe they and similar measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance and financing structure. We also believe these measures facilitate the comparison of our operating performance and financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (鈥淕AAP鈥�), they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following table represents the non-GAAP measure of adjusted homebuilding gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 and reconciles these amounts to homebuilding gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Net debt to total capitalization is calculated as the total debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by the sum of total Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders鈥� equity and total debt less cash and cash equivalents. The closest GAAP financial measure to the net debt to total capitalization ratio is the debt to total capitalization ratio. The following table represents a reconciliation of the net debt to total capitalization ratio as of March 31, 2025.

Diluted EPS, excluding the impact of Challenger Homes is defined as Diluted EPS less (i) the income earned from our 49% equity interest in Challenger Homes during the first quarter of 2024 and (ii) the gain on sale recognized from the sale of the Company鈥檚 49% interest in Challenger Homes. We believe that this metric provides investors a tool to evaluate the comparable performance of our operations on a like-for-like basis by excluding the impact of the Challenger Homes transaction, which was completed during the first quarter of 2024. The following represents a reconciliation of Diluted EPS, excluding the impact of Challenger Homes for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

The following table presents the non-GAAP measure of diluted EPS, excluding the impact from the sale of Challenger Homes for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and reconciles these amounts to Diluted EPS, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
