Evaluation of segment performance is based primarily on operating earnings (loss) before income taxes. Operations of the Company’s Homebuilding segments primarily include the construction and sale of single-family attached and detached homes as well as the purchase, development and sale of residential land directly and through the Company’s unconsolidated entities. Operating earnings (loss) for the Homebuilding segments consist of revenues generated from the sales of homes and land, other revenues from management fees and forfeited deposits, equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net, less the cost of homes sold and land sold, and selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Company’s reportable Homebuilding segments and all other homebuilding operations not required to be reported separately have homebuilding divisions located in: East: Florida, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and South Carolina Central: Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Minnesota, North Carolina and Virginia Texas: Texas West: Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington Other: Urban divisions and other homebuilding related investments primarily in California, including FivePoint Holdings, LLC ("FivePoint") The assets related to the Company’s homebuilding segments were as follows: (In thousands) East Central Texas West Other Corporate and Unallocated Total Homebuilding May 31, 2021 $ 5,749,998 3,713,952 2,510,950 11,131,940 1,326,516 2,440,069 26,873,425 November 30, 2020 5,308,114 3,438,600 2,150,916 10,504,374 1,301,618 2,825,803 25,529,425 Financial information relating to the Company’s homebuilding segments was as follows: Three Months Ended May 31, 2021 (In thousands) East Central Texas West Other Total Homebuilding Revenues $ 1,567,768 1,097,582 799,259 2,553,771 9,661 6,028,041 Operating earnings (loss) 309,827 159,048 176,057 492,811 (25,268) 1,112,475 Three Months Ended May 31, 2020 Revenues $ 1,277,431 986,284 712,756 1,959,823 13,190 4,949,484 Operating earnings (loss) 192,887 103,904 99,887 280,094 (45,411) 631,361 Six Months Ended May 31, 2021 (In thousands) East Central Texas West Other Total Homebuilding Revenues $ 2,923,710 2,026,024 1,443,337 4,563,350 14,676 10,971,097 Operating earnings (loss) 571,910 291,071 305,700 814,517 (37,543) 1,945,655 Six Months Ended May 31, 2020 Revenues $ 2,429,763 1,775,794 1,185,984 3,708,592 21,467 9,121,600 Operating earnings (loss) 341,641 159,627 152,960 505,001 (67,470) 1,091,759 Financial Services Operations of the Financial Services segment include primarily mortgage financing, title and closing services primarily for buyers of the Company’s homes. It also includes originating and selling into securitizations commercial mortgage loans through its LMF Commercial business. Financial Services’ operating earnings consist of revenues generated primarily from mortgage financing, title and closing services, and property and casualty insurance, less the cost of such services and certain selling, general and administrative expenses incurred by the segment. The Financial Services segment operates generally in the same states as the Company’s homebuilding operations. At May 31, 2021, the Financial Services warehouse facilities were all 364-day repurchase facilities and were used to fund residential mortgages or commercial mortgages for LMF Commercial as follows: (In thousands) Maximum Aggregate Commitment Residential facilities maturing: June 2021 (1) $ 600,000 July 2021 200,000 December 2021 500,000 April 2022 100,000 Total - Residential facilities $ 1,400,000 LMF Commercial facilities maturing November 2021 $ 100,000 December 2021 (2) 611,438 Total - LMF Commercial facilities $ 711,438 Total $ 2,111,438 (1) Subsequent to May 31, 2021, the maturity due date was extended to July 2021. (2) Includes $11.4 million warehouse repurchase facility used by LMF Commercial to finance the origination of floating rate accrual loans, which are reported as accrual loans within loans held-for-investment, net. The Financial Services segment uses the residential facilities to finance its residential lending activities until the mortgage loans are sold to investors and the proceeds are collected. The facilities are non-recourse to the Company and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. The LMF Commercial facilities finance LMF Commercial loan originations and securitization activities and were secured by up to an 80% interest in the originated commercial loans financed. Borrowings and collateral under the facilities and their prior year predecessors were as follows: (In thousands) May 31, 2021 November 30, 2020 Borrowings under the residential facilities $ 671,541 1,185,797 Collateral under the residential facilities 695,275 1,231,619 Borrowings under the LMF Commercial facilities 104,247 124,617 If the facilities are not renewed or replaced, the borrowings under the lines of credit will be repaid by selling the mortgage loans held-for-sale to investors and by collecting receivables on loans sold but not yet paid for. Without the facilities, the Financial Services segment would have to use cash from operations and other funding sources to finance its lending activities. Substantially all of the residential loans the Financial Services segment originates are sold within a short period in the secondary mortgage market on a servicing released, non-recourse basis. After the loans are sold, the Company retains potential liability for possible claims by purchasers that it breached certain limited industry-standard representations and warranties in the loan sale agreements. Purchasers sometimes try to defray losses by purporting to have found inaccuracies related to sellers’ representations and warranties in particular loan sale agreements. Mortgage investors could seek to have the Company buy back mortgage loans or compensate them for losses incurred on mortgage loans that the Company has sold based on claims that the Company breached its limited representations or warranties. The Company’s mortgage operations have established accruals for possible losses associated with mortgage loans previously originated and sold to investors. The Company establishes accruals for such possible losses based upon, among other things, an analysis of repurchase requests received, an estimate of potential repurchase claims not yet received and actual past repurchases and losses through the disposition of affected loans as well as previous settlements. While the Company believes that it has adequately reserved for known losses and projected repurchase requests, given the volatility in the residential mortgage industry and the uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of these claims, if either actual repurchases or the losses incurred resolving those repurchases exceed the Company’s expectations, additional recourse expense may be incurred. Loan origination liabilities are included in Financial Services’ liabilities in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The activity in the Company’s loan origination liabilities was as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended May 31, May 31, (In thousands) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Loan origination liabilities, beginning of period $ 8,433 9,996 7,569 9,364 Provision for losses 1,114 1,139 2,080 1,915 Payments/settlements (93) (255) (195) (399) Loan origination liabilities, end of period $ 9,454 10,880 9,454 10,880 LMF Commercial - loans held-for-sale LMF Commercial originated commercial loans as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended May 31, May 31, (Dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 2021 2020 Originations (1) $ 196,498 5,400 415,998 417,650 Sold 155,740 142,938 438,705 457,377 Securitizations 1 1 3 3 (1) During both the three and six months ended May 31, 2021 and 2020 all the commercial loans originated were recorded as loans held-for-sale, which are held at fair value. Investments held-to-maturity At May 31, 2021 and November 30, 2020, the Financial Services segment held commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"). These securities are classified as held-to-maturity based on its intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity and changes in estimated cash flows are reviewed periodically to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. Based on the segment’s assessment, no impairment charges were recorded during either the three or six months ended May 31, 2021 or 2020. The Company has financing agreements to finance CMBS that have been purchased as investments by the Financial Services segment. Details related to Financial Services' CMBS were as follows: (Dollars in thousands) May 31, 2021 November 30, 2020 Carrying value $ 162,919 164,230 Outstanding debt, net of debt issuance costs 152,396 153,505 Incurred interest rate 3.4 % 3.4 % May 31, 2021 Discount rates at purchase 6% — 84% Coupon rates 2.0% — 5.3% Distribution dates October 2027 — December 2028 Stated maturity dates October 2050 — December 2051 Multifamily The Company is actively involved, primarily through unconsolidated entities, in the development, construction and property management of multifamily rental properties. The Multifamily segment focuses on developing a geographically diversified portfolio of institutional quality multifamily rental properties in select U.S. markets. Operations of the Multifamily segment include revenues generated from the sales of land, revenue from construction activities, and management and promote fees generated from joint ventures and equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other gains (which includes sales of buildings), less the cost of sales of land sold, expenses related to construction activities and general and administrative expenses. Lennar Other Lennar Other primarily includes strategic investments in technology companies, primarily managed by the Company's LEN X subsidiary, and fund interests the Company retained when it sold the Rialto asset and investment management platform. Operations of the Lennar Other segment include operating earnings (loss) consisting of revenues generated primarily from the Company's share of carried interests in the Rialto fund investments retained after the sale of Rialto's asset and investment management platform, along with equity in earnings (loss) from the Rialto fund investments and strategic technology investments, gains (losses) from investments in equity securities and other income (expense), net from the remaining assets related to the Company's former Rialto segment. During the three months ended May 31, 2021, the Company completed the sale of the Company's residential solar business to Sunnova Energy International Inc. ("Sunnova") for shares in Sunnova. The Company recorded a gain of $151.5 million upon the closing of the sale. The calculation of the gain included the fair value of the 3.1 million shares in initial consideration received at closing and the fair value of potential shares to be received upon achievement of earnouts. The significant unobservable fair value assumptions used in the calculation were a terminal value multiple of 3 and a 15% discount rate. The fair value of the earnouts was also based on the probability of achieving full or partial earnouts. The investments in Opendoor Technologies, Inc ("Opendoor") and Sunnova are held at market and will therefore change depending on the value of the Company's share holdings on the last day of each quarter. During the three months ended May 31, 2021, the Company's Lennar Other segment recorded a loss of $234.3 million and $38.3 million related to the mark to market of the Company's share holdings in Opendoor and Sunnova, respectively. During the six months ended May 31, 2021 , Opendoor began trading on the Nasdaq stock market and the Company began to mark to market the Company's share holdings in the public entity. The mark to market recognition was due to the investment now being accounted for as an investment in equity securities which is held at fair value and the change in fair value is recognized through earnings. |
