Millrose Properties Reports Strong Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Generated $797 Million in Net Cash Proceeds from Homesite Sales, including $768 Million from Lennar; Redeployed $718 Million in Land Acquisitions and Development Funding with Lennar.

Delivered on Strategy to Expand Homebuilder Relationships by Deploying $813 Million with Third-Party Customers at a Weighted Average Yield of 11.2%, reaching approximately $1.3 billion in Homesite Inventory and Other Related Assets and a $1.1 billion Invested Capital balance outside of the Lennar Master Program Agreement.

Closed portfolio transaction with New Home Company to facilitate public company acquisition, and closed $1 Billion Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment to provide additional capital capacity.

Millrose Properties, Inc. (NYSE: MRP, “Millrose” or the “Company”), the Homesite Option Purchase Platform for residential homebuilders, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

"We have witnessed continued adoption of Millrose as a scaled capital solution for homebuilders and land developers during the quarter," stated Darren Richman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Millrose. “Given our robust backlog, pipeline and expanding opportunity set, we are even more confident in our ability to scale Millrose while sustaining high returns. As a result, we are well positioned to achieve our stretch goal for full-year transaction funding guidance outside of the Lennar Master Program Agreement.”

Mr. Richman concluded, “We are further differentiating ourselves by facilitating large-scale, capital-efficient M&A within the homebuilding sector, as evidenced by the closing of the approximately $500 million land banking investment we provided New Home Company in connection with its successful acquisition of Landsea Homes Corporation this quarter, as well as the recently announced $3 billion land and construction financing facility provided to Taylor Morrison in support of its Yardly build-to-rent platform by an affiliate of our Manager, in which we expect the majority will be allocated to Millrose. These transactions underscore the growing demand for flexible solutions-based capital and highlight the value our platform can deliver to homebuilders and land developers as they seek to address today’s affordability and supply challenges.”

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights

Millrose’s second quarter 2025 financial results underscore the efficacy of its business model, which generates cash from contractual monthly options payments with continuous capital redeployment, providing attractive recurring yields.

For the second quarter of 2025, Millrose reported:

  • Net income attributable to Millrose common shareholders of $112.8 million, or $0.68 per share, driven by $149.0 million in option fees and other related income
  • Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO), a non-GAAP measure, of $115.0 million, or $0.69 per share
  • Annualized return on equity of 7.8%, an increase of 20bps compared to the prior quarter on a normalized basis

Total portfolio weighted average annualized yield was 8.9% as of quarter end, an increase of 20 basis points versus the first quarter of 2025, reflecting the addition of new homesite acquisitions outside of the Lennar Master Program Agreement and demonstrating the value Millrose delivers to third-party homebuilders through its unique permanent capital solution.

Dividend

On June 16, 2025, Millrose declared its first full quarterly dividend of $114.5 million, or $0.69 per share of Class A and Class B common stock. The dividend was paid on July 15, 2025, to shareholders of record as of July 3, 2025. Millrose distributes 100% of its earnings to shareholders.

Second Quarter of 2025 Portfolio Highlights

  • Lennar Master Program Agreement: With $6.6 billion of homesite inventory and other related assets and a $6.3 billion Invested Capital balance as of June 30, 2025, and a weighted average yield of 8.5%, the Lennar relationship continues to provide an important foundation for Millrose as it diversifies its platform. In the second quarter, Millrose received $768 million in net cash proceeds from homesite sales to Lennar and redeployed $718 million in new land acquisitions and development funding with Lennar. Weighted average option rate was 8.6% on new land acquisitions with Lennar pursuant to the terms of the Lennar Master Program Agreement.
  • Other Agreements: Millrose funded an additional $813 million under other agreements at a weighted average yield of 11.2%, resulting in $1.3 billion of homesite inventory and $1.1 billion in Invested Capital net of realized homesite sales as of June 30, 2025. This balance includes the acquisition of a diversified portfolio of homesites from Landsea Homes Corporation for approximately $500 million net of deposits, supporting The New Home Company’s successful acquisition of Landsea Homes Corporation, and corresponding execution of option agreements with New Home Company on the homesites. Millrose continued progress in expanding capital partnerships subsequent to June 30,, 2025, deploying an additional approximately $200 million outside of the Lennar Master Program Agreement as of July 31st.
  • Portfolio Composition: Millrose ended the quarter with approximately 129,000 homesites across 1,000 communities in 29 states as of June 30, 2025.

AFFO Guidance

  • Raising guidance for year-end Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO) quarterly run rate to a range of $0.70 to $0.73 per share1, as compared to prior earnings per share guidance, to account for higher transaction funding outside of the Lennar Master Program Agreement and provide additional transparency on the recurring distributable operating earnings of our business.

Liquidity & Capitalization Update

Millrose maintains a conservative leverage profile, significant asset base, and ample liquidity, supported by a capital structure that positions the Company for continued growth and capital efficiency.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company reported total assets of approximately $8.0 billion and liquidity of $1.4 billion, including cash and availability under its revolving credit facility.

Total debt was $1.0 billion, with a Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio of approximately 15%. Millrose expects to adhere to a maximum debt to capitalization of 33% going forward.

During the second quarter, the Company closed its $1 billion delayed draw term loan from Goldman Sachs Bank USA and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which, combined with its existing $1.3 billion revolving credit facility, demonstrates Millrose’s ability to effectively access capital markets to fuel its robust investment pace and execute on a growing range of opportunities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Invested capital is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents the balance on which monthly cash option fees are paid by counterparties. Invested capital includes certain components of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements related to (i) homesite inventory and other related assets and (ii) liabilities. Management uses invested capital as a measure of the capital deployed and believes that the figure is useful to investors because it serves as the basis for generating option fees and other related income.

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 our TRS) that will not be incurred following our election and qualification to be subject to tax as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We believe that AFFO is useful to investors because it is a widely accepted industry measure used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs.

Adjusted EBITDA means net income excluding income tax expense or benefit, interest expense, other income or expense, depreciation, amortization, and transaction costs. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a supplemental measure in evaluating the Company’s balance sheet leverage.

1 The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting the timing of items that have not yet occurred, as well as quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation.
