Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Gross Margin from Homes Delivered
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we have provided information in this
presentation relating to adjusted gross margin from homes delivered, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below).
Adjusted Gross Margin from Homes Delivered
We calculate adjusted gross margin from homes delivered by subtracting the gross margin from land and home sites, if any, from Homebuilding
gross
margin
to
arrive
at
gross
margin
from
homes
delivered.
Adjusted
gross
margin
from
homes
delivered
is
calculated
by
adding
asset
impairments, if any, and capitalized interest in cost of sales to gross margin from homes delivered.  Management uses adjusted gross margin from
homes delivered to evaluate operating performance in our Homebuilding segment and in making strategic decisions regarding sales price,
construction and development pace, product mix and other operating decisions.  We believe that adjusted gross margin from homes delivered is
relevant and useful to investors and other interested parties for evaluating our comparative operating performance from period to period and among
companies
within
the
homebuilding
industry
as
it
is
reflective
of
overall
profitability
during
any
given
reporting
period.
This
measure
is
considered
a
non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, the comparable GAAP financial measures when
evaluating our operating performance.  Although other companies in the homebuilding industry report similar information, the methods used by such
companies
may
differ
from
our
methodology
and,
therefore,
may
not
be
comparable.
We
urge
investors
and
other
interested
parties
to
understand
the
methods
used
by
other
companies
in
the
homebuilding
industry
to
calculate
gross
margins
and
any
adjustments
to
such
amounts
before
comparing our measures to those of such other companies.
The table below reconciles adjusted gross margin from homes delivered to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, Homebuilding
gross margin, for the periods presented herein.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (continued)
Adjusted
EBITDA
measures
performance
by
adjusting
net
income
(loss)
attributable
to
common
shareholders
of
WCI
Communities,
Inc.
to
exclude, if any, interest expense, capitalized interest in cost of sales, income taxes, depreciation (‘‘EBITDA’’), preferred stock dividends, income
from discontinued operations, other income, stock-based and other non-cash long-term incentive compensation expense, asset impairments and
expenses
related
to
early
repayment
of
debt.
We
believe
that
the
presentation
of
Adjusted
EBITDA
provides
useful
information
to
investors
and
other interested parties regarding our results of operations because it assists those parties and us when analyzing and benchmarking the
performance and value of our business.  We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful as a measure of comparative operating performance
from
period
to
period
and
among
companies
in
the
homebuilding
industry
as
it
is
reflective
of
changes
in
pricing
decisions,
cost
controls
and
other
factors
that
affect
operating
performance,
and
it
removes
the
effect
of
our
capital
structure
(such
as
preferred
stock
dividends
and
interest
expense),
asset
base
(primarily
depreciation),
items
outside
of
our
control
(primarily
income
taxes)
and
the
volatility
related
to
the
timing
and
extent of non-operating activities (such as discontinued operations and asset impairments).  Accordingly, we believe that this measure is useful for
comparing
general
operating
performance
from
period
to
period.
Other
companies
may
define
Adjusted
EBITDA
differently
and,
as
a
result,
our
measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA of other companies.  Although we use Adjusted EBITDA as a
financial
measure
to
assess
the
performance
of
our
business,
the
use
of
Adjusted
EBITDA
is
limited
because
it
does
not
include
certain
material
costs,
such
as
interest
and
income
taxes,
necessary
to
operate
our
business.
Adjusted
EBITDA
and
EBITDA
should
be
considered
in
addition
to,
and
not
as
substitutes
for,
net
income
(loss)
in
accordance
with
GAAP
as
a
measure
of
performance.
Our
presentation
of
EBITDA
and
Adjusted
EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.  Our EBITDA-based
measures
have
limitations
as
analytical
tools
and,
therefore,
investors
and
other
interested
parties
should
not
consider
them
in
isolation
or
as
substitutes
for
analyses
of
our
results
as
reported
under
GAAP.
Some
such
limitations
are:
they do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations;
they are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows;
they do not reflect the interest expense necessary to service our debt; and
Because
of
these
limitations,
our
EBITDA-based
measures
are
not
intended
to
be
alternatives
to
net
income
(loss),
indicators
of
our
operating
performance,
alternatives
to
any
other
measure
of
performance
in
conformity
with
GAAP
or
alternatives
to
cash
flow
provided
by
operating
activities as measures of liquidity.  Investors and other interested parties should therefore not place undue reliance on our EBITDA-based
