Lennar Corporation Research Report
On June 25, 2013, Lennar Corporation (Lennar) announced financial results for Q2 FY 2013 (ended May 31, 2013). Revenues were up 53.3% YoY to $1.4 billion, with 39% increase in deliveries of homes and 27% increase in new orders. The Company's Q2 FY 2013 net earnings were $137.4 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared with Q2 FY 2012 net earnings of $452.7 million, or $2.06 per diluted share. "Against the backdrop of recent investor concerns over mortgage rate increases, we believe that our second quarter results together with real time feedback from our field associates continue to point towards a solid, housing recovery," said Stuart Miller, CEO of Lennar. "Our second quarter results reflect significant improvement in all of our key homebuilding and financial services metrics. Demand in all of our markets continues to outspace supply which is constrained by limited land availability and fewer competing homebuilders. At the same time, affordability remains high and despite recent interest rate increases, we have seen very little impact on sales or pricing."
