The H&H acquisition made it the 11th largest private homebuilder based on 2019 revenue, according to the prospectus.

Dream Finders Homes has a return on equity of 41% as of September, compared to an industry average of 15% for public homebuilders, according to the prospectus.

The first nine months of 2020 were the company’s most successful months for new-order volume in its history.

E-vapor was a $1.5 billion market in China in 2019 and is expected to grow to $11.3 billion by 2023, the company says. China had 286.7 million tobacco users as of 2019. This ranks China first in the world and significantly higher than the U.S. total of 33.8 million tobacco users, good for fourth place on the list. Companies like RLX Technology, which claims strong brand awareness and products found in over 100,000 retail outlets and 250 Chinese cities, stand to benefit from tobacco users who switch to vaping products.

The company plans to sell 116.5 million American depositary shares at a price point of $8 to $10.
