“We achieved strong financial results in the third quarter of 2013, generating $13.9 million in pre-tax income excluding noncontrolling interest, or $0.44 per diluted share, and delivering our seventh consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth in deliveries, orders and backlog,” said William H. Lyon, Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to benefit from our presence in attractive real estate markets, where our same-store average sales price was up 26% from the year ago quarter and 5% sequentially. Higher sales prices continue to translate into higher gross margins, which expanded 580 basis points year-over-year and 370 basis points sequentially.”










Operating Results
Home sales revenue increased 84% to $141.4 million for the quarter, as compared to $76.6 million in the year-ago period. The increase in home sales revenue was due to a 33% increase in deliveries coupled with a 39% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered, versus the year-ago period.

The increase in third quarter deliveries was driven by a 27% increase in the number of homes in backlog at the beginning of the quarter compared to the year-ago period and a backlog conversion rate of 70%. On a same-store basis, which represents projects that were open during the comparable periods, average sales prices increased 26%, from $245,200 in the third quarter of 2012 to $309,000 in the third quarter of 2013.

Net new home orders for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013 were 312, up 12%, from 279 in the year-ago period. The dollar value of our orders was $142.4 million during the quarter, an increase of 87%, from $76.3 million in the prior year. Our cancellation rate trended down in the third quarter to 14%, which is down 300 basis points sequentially, from 17% in the second quarter.

Homebuilding gross margins were 23.6% during the third quarter of 2013, up 580 basis points over the year-ago period. Adjusted homebuilding gross margins were 29.0% during the third quarter of 2013, as compared to 25.7% in the year-ago period.

As of September 30, 2013, backlog units totaled 467, a 13% increase compared to 414 units as of September 30, 2012. In addition, the dollar value of homes in backlog climbed to $208.1 million, a 92% increase over $108.4 million as of September 30, 2012.

Operating income improved to $17.0 million during the third quarter of 2013 from $3.6 million in the year-ago period. Adjusted EBITDA improved by 137% to $23.0 million during the third quarter of 2013 compared to adjusted EBITDA of $9.7 million in the year-ago period.

Matthew R. Zaist, President and Chief Operating Officer commented, “During the quarter, we added to our strong land position with key lot acquisitions across most of our markets particularly in Northern and Southern California and Colorado. We have grown our total lot count by 15% over the last twelve months, with a focus on value-added development opportunities in communities where we will deliver homes in 2015 and beyond. In addition, we continue to focus on opening new stores, with a 44% increase in average community count, year over year.”

Mr. Zaist continued, “We continually review our operating strategy in each community in order to achieve the right balance between price increases and sales pace, with the goal of maintaining or increasing our gross profit margins. In the third quarter, we achieved a monthly absorption rate of approximately four net new orders per project, while increasing prices 5% sequentially, on a same-store basis. In addition, our ASPs in backlog have climbed to $445,600 at the end of the quarter, which is a 12% increase over our ASPs from homes closed of $397,100.”






The Company recorded income tax expense of $6.4 million in the third quarter.  Of this total, $5.2 million relates to the income tax provision on 2013 operations. The remaining $1.2 million is related to the Company making a one-time election in 2013 to accelerate cancellation of debt income in its 2012 federal tax return, offsetting it against our remaining federal NOLs. By making this one-time election, the Company expects to save approximately $22 million of net cash, which would have been paid in future years. As of September 30, 2013, the Company’s deferred tax asset balance was $117.0 million, which remained fully reserved. 

Net income available to common stockholders was $7.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2013, compared to net loss available to common stockholders of $1.5 million, or $(0.12) per share in the year-ago period.

Balance Sheet Update
At quarter end, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $82.8 million and total debt was $360.5 million, as compared to cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $71.9 million and total debt of $338.2 at December 31, 2012. Net debt to net book capitalization was 45.1% at September 30, 2013, as compared to 65.0% at December 31, 2012.

On October 24, 2013, the Company completed a private offering of $100 million in aggregate principal amount of additional 8.5% senior notes due 2020 through its wholly owned subsidiary, William Lyon Homes, Inc. The notes were offered as additional notes under the indenture dated November 8, 2012, pursuant to which William Lyon Homes, Inc. issued $325 million in aggregate principal amount of its 8.5% senior notes due 2020. The additional notes were priced at 106.5% of their face amount (plus accrued interest), which is a yield of 6.952%. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition and development of land and home construction.

Mr. Lyon commented, “We are pleased to have recently raised an additional $100 million in the bond market. This additional capital positions us to continue to execute on our long-term growth plans to deliver shareholder value while at the same time prudently managing our leverage.”

Adjusted homebuilding gross margin is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. It is used by management in evaluating operating performance and in making strategic decisions regarding sales pricing, construction and development pace, product mix and other operating decisions. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that interest has on homebuilding gross margin and allows investors to make better comparisons with our competitors.

(1)
Adjusted EBITDA means net income (loss) attributable to William Lyon Homes plus (i) provision for income taxes, (ii) interest expense, (iii) amortization of capitalized interest included in cost of sales, (iv) stock based compensation, (v) loss on sale of fixed assets, (vi) gain on retirement of debt, (vii) non-cash reorganization items and (viii) depreciation and amortization. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because management believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to the Company’s investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because adjusted EBITDA is a widely utilized indicator of a company's operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net (loss) income, cash flows from operating activities and other consolidated income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted





in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net (loss) income attributable to William Lyon Homes to adjusted EBITDA is provided as follows:

Pre-tax net income excluding non-controlling interest is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  The third quarter ended September 30, 2013 is the first quarter during which the Company has recorded a provision for income tax, except for minimum tax payments, since the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, and we therefore believe this information is meaningful because it allows investors to make better comparisons with prior periods and investor expectations.  In addition, this information is used by management in evaluating operating performance, both on an aggregate, and per diluted share basis.
