INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

To the Board of Managers of

Hanover Family Builders, LLC and Subsidiaries

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Hanover Family Builders, LLC and Subsidiaries (a Florida Limited Liability Company) (collectively the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and the related consolidated statements of income, equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Subsequent Sale of Hanover Family Builders, LLC

 

As discussed in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, in January 2022, all of the interests in Hanover Family Builders, LLC were sold to Landsea Homes of Florida, LLC. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

 

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
   
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.
   
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
   
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
   
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

 

1 SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Business

 

Hanover Family Builders, LLC (“HFB”) is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Florida on April 25, 2017, pursuant to an operating agreement dated August 21, 2017. The Company acquires developed lots in subdivisions and builds single family homes on them under fixed-price contracts and on a speculative basis in the Greater Orlando, Florida area.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hanover Family Builders, LLC and its majority-owned subsidiary limited liability companies (collectively the “Company”), after elimination of all material intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits.

 

The financial statements also include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of partnerships for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The other equity holders’ interests are reflected in “Noncontrolling interest” in the consolidated balance sheets and “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests” in the consolidated statements of income.

 

At December 31, 2021, HFB owned a 51% interest in Cloud Development Partners, LLC (“CDP”). CDP had approximately $320,000 in cash and cash equivalents, $6,280,000 in inventory, $1,300,000 in accounts payable, and $2,600,000 in bank lines of credit, which is net of $70,000 in loan origination costs, included in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. CDP had no revenues or expenses included in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at acquisition as cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory, consisting of developed lots, model homes and homes under construction, is carried at the lower of cost (based on a specific identification basis) or net realizable value. Cost includes lot costs, construction costs, capitalized interest and indirect costs. Lot costs are transferred to houses under construction from finished lot costs when construction commences.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized, and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes.

HANOVER FAMILY BUILDERS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(continued)

 

Estimated useful lives range as follows:

 

   Years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment   8 
Vehicles and watercraft   5 - 10 
Computers   3 

 

Deferred Financing Costs

 

Costs relating to obtaining debt are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. When the debt is paid in full, any unamortized financing costs are removed from the related accounts and charged to operations. Deferred financing costs totaled $665,295 and 257,918, net of

 

$1,540,773 and $1,148,731 of accumulated amortization, as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Amortization of deferred financing costs totaled $392,042 and $295,758 for 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 

Revenue and Cost of Revenue

 

The Company recognizes revenue when the sale of the related home is closed. The Company’s performance obligation, to deliver the agreed-upon home, is generally satisfied in less than one year from the original contract date. During the construction period, costs of direct material and labor and indirect costs of acquisition and construction, including interest, are capitalized and customer deposits are recorded as liabilities.

 

At closing, capitalized costs are charged to cost of revenues and customer deposits are applied to the home’s purchase price. When a customer defaults on a home purchase agreement, the customer deposit is recognized as revenue in the period of the default. Costs incurred for selling, general and administrative functions and costs associated with completed homes are expensed as incurred.

 

The Company periodically elects to sell parcels of land to third parties if the assets no longer fit the Company’s strategic operating plans. Land sales are generally outright sales of specified land parcels with cash consideration due on the closing date, which is generally when performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense totaled $186,717 and $212,188 for 2021 and 2020, respectively, and are included in sales and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(continued)

 

Income Taxes

 

As a limited liability company, the Company’s taxable income or loss is allocated to members in accordance with their respective percentage ownership. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Financial Instruments and Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, lines of credit and note payable. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received in an asset sale or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between unaffiliated market participants. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of the lines of credit and the note payable approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates.

 

Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company deposits its cash with major banks. Deposits totaling approximately $8,676,000 were not fully guaranteed by the FDIC as of December 31, 2021. The Company has historically not experienced losses on its bank cash deposits.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 3, 2022, the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The main difference between previous Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessors for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The new standard is effective for 2022. Lessors must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that implementation of the new standard will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

HANOVER FAMILY BUILDERS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Residential Real Estate Purchase Commitments

 

The Company has entered into agreements to purchase a certain number of developed residential real estate lots over a specified period of time at established prices. The remaining minimum future purchase obligations under these agreements as of December 31, 2021 are as follows:

 

   Remaining Minimum   
   Number of Lot  Minimum
   Purchases per  Purchase Price
Year  Respective Year  per Lot
 2022   145   $48,000 - $86,000 

 

Development Cost Overages

 

In conjunction with raw land the Company sold to a land developer in September 2019, the Company agreed to reimburse the purchaser for development cost overages, which are payable when the Company takes down finished lots. It is not practicable for the Company to reasonably estimate the amount of its obligation for development cost overages; accordingly, no liability for these costs has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company’s policy is to recognize these costs at the earlier of the date they become reasonably estimable or the date they are paid. No amounts were recorded in 2021 related to these cost overages.

 

Guarantee of Related Party Indebtedness

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company is contingently liable as guarantor with respect to

 

$7,000,000 of indebtedness of a related party. Should the related party be delinquent on its debt payments, the Company will be obligated to perform under the guarantee by primarily making the required payments, including late fees and penalties. Because the fair value of the debt’s collateral exceeds the amount of the debt obligation, significant losses are not anticipated.

 

Employee Benefit Plan

 

Effective January 2021, the Company participates in a 401(k) plan (‘‘Plan’’) sponsored by one of its members to provide retirement benefits for its employees. Employees may contribute a portion of their annual compensation to the Plan, limited to a maximum annual amount as set periodically by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company matches employee contributions up to 100% of the first 3% of compensation deferred, plus 50% of the next 2% of compensation deferred. In addition, the Plan provides for discretionary contributions as determined by the sponsor. Such contributions to the Plan are allocated among eligible participants in the proportion of their salaries to the total salaries of all participants. The Company contributions to the Plan totaled $185,865 and $0 for 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Uncertainty

 

The extent of the impact and effects of the outbreak of the coronavirus on the operation and financial performance of the Company’s business will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, related travel advisories and restrictions and the recovery time of disrupted customers, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. While the Company has not seen a significant impact on its operations due to the virus to date, if the virus causes significant negative impacts to economic conditions or consumer confidence, the Company’s operations may be adversely affected.

 

7 LINES OF CREDIT
