Millrose Properties, Inc. (NYSE: MRP) (“Millrose” or the “Company”), based on information available as of October 9, 2025, is providing preliminary, unaudited results for the third quarter of 2025 ahead of upcoming investor meetings. The Company plans to release its full third quarter 2025 results before the market opens on October 23, 2025.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Millrose expects to report the following estimated preliminary unaudited results:
- Revenues of approximately $179.3 million and $411.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. Revenues include (i) option fee revenues which is Millrose’s primary source of revenue and represent monthly option payments from Lennar Corporation (“Lennar”) and other customers in consideration for maintenance of a purchase option with respect to a property, and (ii) development loan income from interest on the outstanding loan balance of development loans secured by residential property.
- Net income of approximately $105.1 million, or $0.63 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Net income has been impacted by the accelerated payoff of the delayed draw term loan and other expenses related to our recent debt issuance. Given the non-recurring and non-cash nature of these costs, they are added back to net income to calculate Adjusted Funds From Operations.
- Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) of approximately $122.5 million, or $0.74 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2025. As shown in “Reconciliation of Millrose Non-GAAP Measures” below, certain non-recurring and non-cash transactions are added back to net income including non-cash components of compensation expense, amortization of financing costs for Millrose’s credit agreements and seller notes, provision for credit loss expense, and non-recurring agency expenses related to the spin-off of the Company from Lennar (the “Spin-Off”).
- Homesite inventory and other related assets of approximately $8.7 billion as of September 30, 2025.
- Invested Capital of approximately $8.2 billion as of September 30, 2025. Invested Capital includes (i) homesite inventory contributed by Lennar at the Spin-Off and acquired from Rausch Coleman Companies, LLC (“Rausch”), less option earning deposits and other holdbacks, and (ii) takedown and land acquisition and development funding activity through the third quarter of 2025.
- Weighted average yield of approximately 9.1% as of September 30, 2025, which is based on the average of option rate and/or loan interest rate weighted by investment balance, and assumes the three-month SOFR rate as of June 26, 2025.
- Book value of approximately $35.29 per share as of September 30, 2025 which represents the total common stockholders’ equity divided by the common shares outstanding as of September 30, 2025.
The above financial results are preliminary, unaudited estimates and are subject to change until the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The Company is currently finalizing its third quarter 2025 results, and as a result, these preliminary estimates are based solely on information available to management as of the date of this press release. The Company’s actual results may differ from these estimates due to the completion of its quarter-end closing procedures, final adjustments and developments that may arise or information that may become available between now and the time the Company’s financial results are finalized and included in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Non-GAAP Measures
The unaudited preliminary estimates include certain non-GAAP measures, including AFFO and Invested Capital. Millrose has included AFFO and Invested Capital because management believes they provide useful information to investors in gaining an overall understanding of Millrose’s current financial performance. Millrose believes AFFO is useful to investors because it is a widely accepted industry measure used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performances of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Millrose uses Invested Capital as a measure of the capital deployed and management believes that the figure is useful to investors because it serves as the basis for generating option fees and other related income. Millrose believes AFFO and Invested Capital provide investors with the financial measures that closely align with Millrose’s internal processes. The following are the definitions of Millrose’s non-GAAP measures:
- AFFO means the Adjusted Funds From Operations, which are calculated as the net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation, adjusted to eliminate the impact of non-recurring items that are not reflective of ongoing operations and certain non-cash items that reduce or increase net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP, and also adjusted for income tax expense (other than income tax expenses of Millrose’s taxable REIT subsidiaries) that will not be incurred following Millrose’s election and qualification to be subject to tax as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as Millrose does and therefore Millrose’s calculation of AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs.
- Invested Capital represents the balance on which monthly cash option fees are paid by counterparties. Invested Capital includes certain components of Millrose’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements related to (i) homesite inventory and other related assets and (ii) liabilities.
Non-GAAP financial information has limitations as an analytical tool and is presented for supplemental informational purposes only. Such information should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
