- In August of 2023, we redeemed an additional $100 million principal amount of our 7.75% senior secured notes due February 15, 2026, at a purchase price of 101.937% plus accrued and unpaid interest. We have reduced total debt by $668 million since the beginning of fiscal 2020.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE(2):
The Company is increasing guidance for total revenues, adjusted homebuilding gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income before income taxes and fully diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2023. Financial guidance below assumes no adverse changes in current market conditions, including further deterioration in the supply chain, material increase in mortgage rates, or increased inflation and excludes further impact to SG&A expenses from phantom stock expense related solely to stock price movements from the closing price of $106.62 on July 31, 2023.
For fiscal 2023, total revenues are expected to be between $2.6 billion and $2.7 billion, adjusted homebuilding gross margin is expected to be between 22% and 23%, adjusted income before income taxes is expected to be between $215 million and $235 million, adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $350 million and $370 million and fully diluted earnings per share is expected to be between $21 and $24. At the midpoint of our guidance, we anticipate our common shareholders’ equity to increase by approximately 63% at October 31, 2023 to approximately $67 per share compared to last year’s value at year-end of $41 per share.
(2)The Company cannot provide a reconciliation between its non-GAAP projections and the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items required for the reconciliation. These items include, but are not limited to, land-related charges, inventory impairments and land option write-offs and loss on extinguishment of debt, net. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results.
COMMENTS FROM MANAGEMENT:
“We are pleased with our third quarter operating performance, adjusted homebuilding gross margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted income before income taxes all exceeded the upper end of our guidance,” stated Ara K. Hovnanian, Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer. “Positive demographic and employment trends combined with a low supply of existing homes for sale has resulted in strong demand for newly constructed homes. Despite higher mortgage rates and a challenging affordability atmosphere, the 92% year-over-year improvement in our consolidated contracts per community is a testament to the current robust selling environment, our strong land positions and our exceptional team. Due to the strength of our recent sales pace and margins, we are raising the high end of our 2023 EPS guidance by 20%.”
“After ending the third quarter with $456 million of liquidity, we redeemed $100 million of 7.75% senior secured notes to further reduce our debt. As we move forward, we intend to continue to utilize excess liquidity to reduce debt and grow our land position to increase profitability. Given the strength in the housing market today, we are encouraged that looking forward we believe our year-over-year comparisons for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 should show significant improvements,” concluded Mr. Hovnanian.
SEGMENT CHANGE/RECLASSIFICATION
Historically, the Company had seven reportable segments consisting of six homebuilding segments (Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Southeast, Southwest and West) and its financial services segment. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, we reevaluated our reportable segments as a result of changes in the business and our management thereof. In particular, we considered the fact that, since our segments were last established, the Company had exited the Minnesota, North Carolina, and Tampa markets and is currently in the process of exiting the Chicago market. As a result, we realigned our homebuilding operating segments and determined that, in addition to our financial services segment, we now have three reportable homebuilding segments comprised of (1) Northeast, (2) Southeast and (3) West. All prior period amounts related to the segment change have been retrospectively reclassified to conform to the new presentation.
