-- KB Home Analyst Notes On June 27, 2014, KB Home reported its Q2 FY 2014 financial results (period ended May 31, 2014). Total revenues increased 7.7% YoY to $565.0 million. The significant increase was attributable to the growth in the Company's housing revenues from higher average selling prices. Quarterly net income came in at $26.6 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared with quarterly net loss of $3.0 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in Q2 FY 2013. According to the Company, the substantial increase in net income came from the higher revenues, expanded housing gross profit margin, and improved selling, and general and administrative expense ratio. Jeffrey Mezger, President and CEO, KB Home, said, "Reflecting the strong operational foundation we have established through the effective execution of our core strategies, we extended our trend of generating solid earnings improvement in the second quarter, and remain focused on accelerating profitable growth."

-- Lennar Corporation Analyst Notes On June 26, 2014, Lennar Corporation (Lennar) reported its Q2 FY 2014 financial results (period ended May 31, 2014). Quarterly revenues increased 27.5% YoY to $1.8 billion, primarily due to a 12% increase in the number of home deliveries, which excludes unconsolidated entities, plus a 14% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. Net earnings stood fairly flat at $137.7 million or $0.61 per diluted share, compared with $137.4 million or $0.61 per diluted share in Q2 FY 2013. Commenting on the results, Stuart Miller, CEO of Lennar, said, "The fundamentals of the homebuilding industry remain strong driven by high affordability levels, favorable monthly payment comparisons to rentals and overall supply shortages. Demand in most of our markets continues to outpace supply, which is constrained by limited land availability." The full analyst notes on Lennar are available to download free of charge at:
