NEWPORT BEACH, CA—February 14, 2014--- William Lyon Homes (NYSE: WLH), a leading homebuilder in the Western U.S., announced results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2013. Net income available to common stockholders was $116.7 million, or $3.64 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to net loss available to common stockholders of $2.2 million, or $(0.15) per diluted share in the year-ago period. Excluding the $95.6 million reversal of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, diluted earnings per share were $0.66 in the fourth quarter of 2013.

“We are extremely pleased with our fourth quarter results, as home sales revenue increased 85%, deliveries improved 21%, gross margin percentage grew 700 basis points to 24.8% and operating income improved to $29.4 million, up more than 11 times, each compared to the year ago period,” said William H. Lyon, Chief Executive Officer. “In addition, we are pleased to report a reversal of a substantial portion of the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets of $95.6 million.”

Mr. Lyon added, “Since executing a successful IPO in May 2013, we have reported three consecutive quarters of net income, recording $21.1 million of net income during the fourth quarter, excluding the benefit from the reversal of the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.”

2013 Fourth Quarter Operating Results

Home sales revenue increased 85% to $182.9 million for the quarter, as compared to $98.6 million in the year-ago period. The increase in home sales revenue was due to a 21% increase in deliveries coupled with a 53% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered, versus the year-ago period. The increase in fourth quarter deliveries was driven by a 13% 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 84%.

Homebuilding gross margins were 24.8% during the fourth quarter of 2013, up approximately 700 basis points over the year-ago period, and up 120 basis points sequentially from the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted homebuilding gross margins were 30.9% during the fourth quarter of 2013, as compared to 29.5% in the year-ago period. The improvement in margins was driven by the increase in average sales price on homes delivered, where same-store average sales price was up 35%, year-over-year.

Net new home orders for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013 were 292, up 28% from 229 in the year-ago period. The dollar value of orders was $170.5 million during the quarter, an increase of 165%, from $64.4 million in the prior year period. As of December 31, 2013, backlog units totaled

368, a 9% decrease compared to 406 units as of December 31, 2012. The dollar value of homes in backlog rose to $199.5 million, a 73% increase over $115.4 million as of December 31, 2012. Average sales price of homes in backlog increased to $542,200 as of December 31, 2013, a 91% increase from $284,400 at December 31, 2012.

Matthew R. Zaist, President and Chief Operating Officer commented, “During the fourth quarter, we continued to see healthy demand across our key markets, especially in California, where our fourth quarter net orders were up almost threefold from the prior year and 10% higher than the third quarter of this year. We also had a strong month of December, recording more orders, companywide, than in each of October and November. Our gross margins were 24.8% in the fourth quarter, the highest since the first quarter of 2006, and up 700 basis points from the prior year. In addition, the average sales price of homes in backlog have climbed to $542,200 at the end of the quarter, which is a 16% increase over our average sales price from homes closed during the quarter of $467,700.”

Operating income improved to $29.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2013 from $2.5 million in the year-ago period. Adjusted EBITDA improved by 121% to $42.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2013, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $19.1 million in the year-ago period.

Mr. Zaist continued, “In 2013, we achieved several goals toward our growth strategy, increasing our total lot count by 16%, with particular focus on our California and Colorado markets, where lots owned and controlled grew 77% and 72%, respectively. We invested $254.8 million in land acquisition and increased our community count during the year from 23 open communities at the end of 2012, to 32 communities by the end of the 2013.”

Mr. Lyon concluded, “As we look back on 2013, we doubled our home sales revenue to $521.3 million, delivered 1,360 homes, and improved operating income more than 28 times to $55.9 million. Today we have a well-established operating platform in place with an experienced management team, an excellent reputation for delivering high-quality homes and a strong land supply in attractive real estate markets in the western region of the country.”

(1) 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.

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:
