NVR Gears Up to Report Q1 Earnings: What's in the Offing?
Read MoreHide Full Article
NVR, Inc.’s (NVR - Free Report) first-quarter 2022 earnings and revenues are expected to have increased on a year-over-year basis, courtesy of solid demand for new homes and higher pricing.
In the last reported quarter, the top and bottom lines lagged the respective Zacks Consensus Estimate. On a year-over-year basis, earnings increased 16%. Total revenues (Homebuilding & Mortgage Banking fees combined), however, declined 5% on a year-over-year basis.
NVR has a strong earnings surprise history, having surpassed analysts’ expectations in 10 of the trailing 13 quarters.
Trend in Estimate Revision
For the quarter to be reported, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings per share has remained stable at $100.47 over the past 60 days. The estimated figure indicates an increase of 59% from the year-ago quarter. The consensus mark for revenues is pegged at $2.28 billion, suggesting a 15.9% increase from the year-ago reported figure of $1.96 billion.
NVR’s quarterly results are likely to be impressive, given higher demand for homes. The company’s first-quarter Homebuilding revenues (accounting for more than 97% of total revenues) are expected to have increased from the year-ago level, backed by robust demand for new homes and a shortage of previously owned houses in the market. Also, the rising trend of working from home owing to the coronavirus outbreak has been prompting many families to choose to live in lower-cost and low-density communities, thereby boosting demand.
Yet, inflationary pressures have been a cause of concern. The companies in the industry have been experiencing significant material cost inflation along with escalating land, labor and material costs. Also, the adverse effects of tightening global and domestic supply chains may have been a concern.
Yet, NVR has been successfully raising prices to offset inflationary pressures. The company has been undertaking additional steps to counter cost pressure and incremental tariffs, which are expected to reflect on the bottom line.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Homebuilding revenues is pegged at $2.31 billion, which indicates an increase from $2.18 million sequentially.
