Xinyuan Real Estate Co., Ltd. Announces First Quarter 2017 Financial Results
BEIJING, China, May 18, 2017 - Xinyuan Real Estate Co., Ltd. (“Xinyuan” or the “Company”) (NYSE: XIN), an NYSE-listed real estate developer and property manager primarily in China and recently in other countries, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.
First Quarter 2017 Highlights
| · | Total first quarter revenue increased 19.2% to US$280.7 million from US$235.4 million in the first quarter of 2016. |
| · | Contract sales increased 9.2% to US$305.4 million from US$279.6 million in the first quarter of 2016. |
| · | Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percent of total revenue decreased to 12.6% from 13.4% in the first quarter of 2016. |
| · | Net income was US$7.4 million, compared to US$6.9 million in the first quarter of 2016. |
| · | Diluted net earnings per American Depositary Share (“ADS”) attributable to shareholders were US$0.11, compared to US$0.09 in the first quarter of 2016. |
| · | The Company repurchased 1,367,400 ADSs at a total cost of approximately US$7.2 million in the first quarter of 2017. |
Mr. Yong Zhang, Xinyuan’s Chairman, stated, “Our first quarter results were generally in line with our expectations under the current government's restrictive policies impacting China’s overall housing market. We achieved approximately 20% revenue growth which was partially driven by improved average selling prices ("ASP") as well as healthy sales from our Brooklyn, New York-based Oosten project, which contributed over 20% to our total sales this quarter. The majority of our development projects in China performed in line with our budget in the first quarter and we maintained a cautious approach to unit sales volume and operating expenses given the current environment. Among Xinyuan’s U.S. projects, our Oosten project has sold 38 units as of the end of the first quarter. Our second New York project, located in Manhattan, began excavation and foundation work, and our third New York project, located in Queens, continues to move through its planning stage for development.
On the financing front, we closed our offering of US$300 million 7.75% senior notes due 2021 at the end of February to further optimize our financial structure. This transaction in the first quarter is reflective of our focus on improving our debt structure and managing interest payments over the longer term. In addition, our property management service entity, Xinyuan Technology Service Co., Ltd., successfully listed on National Equities Exchange and Quotations (NEEQ) in China in this quarter, which we expect to provide better financing opportunities in the future.
As we look ahead, we continue to develop our planning stage projects more cautiously given the current environment. For the remaining quarters of this year, our goal is to generate positive cash flows from our operations, optimize pricing of our China and U.S.-based unit sales, commence pre-sales for four to five of our new planning stage projects, complete select land acquisitions and move forward with the next stages of development for our New York City-based projects. We are pleased to pay our 21st consecutive quarterly dividend and our recent $40 million share repurchase announcement demonstrates our commitment to delivering value for our shareholders,” concluded Mr. Zhang.

Real Estate Project Update in the United States
In the first quarter of 2017, our Brooklyn, New York-based Oosten project delivered 38 units with revenue of approximately $65 million. As of the end of March 2017, total units sold and revenue of this project had reached 144 units and $217 million, respectively, and the construction loan had been completely paid off. Most closed buyers had moved in. Also during the first quarter, local market demand and price trends remained healthy in both Manhattan and Brooklyn. Both saw modest year-on-year unit price increases with Brooklyn enjoying slightly higher increases. We also observed a meaningful drop in new condominium inventory year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter in both Manhattan and Brooklyn. In particular, Brooklyn new development condo unit inventory saw a 22% quarter-on-quarter decrease during the first quarter.
Xinyuan's second New York project, located in midtown Manhattan, had completed demolition, and excavation and foundation work had begun. In the first quarter, the Company successfully closed a $108 million construction loan from a major commercial bank.
For our project located in Queens, New York, the company has selected a general contractor and is in the planning stage of the ground-up development. We are also in discussions with several financial institutions regarding construction financing in order to commence construction.
