“We posted strong results in the second quarter and continued to demonstrate our commitment to operational excellence,” said TRI Pointe Group Chief Executive Officer Doug Bauer. “We achieved significant year-over-year increases in home sales revenue, homebuilding gross margin percentage and net income, while maintaining a sales pace of 3.5 orders per average selling community per month. Each of our homebuilding brands contributed to the bottom line, with notable contributions from Pardee Homes, which continues to deliver healthy profits from both homebuilding operations and land sales. I am extremely pleased with our performance in the first half of 2016 and our market positioning as we head into the back half of the year.”
Second Quarter 2016 Operating Results
Net income available to common stockholders was $73.9 million, or $0.46 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2016, compared to net income available to common stockholders of $54.9 million, or $0.34 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2015.  The improvement in net income available to common stockholders was primarily driven by an increase of $38.7 million in homebuilding gross margin due to higher home sales revenue resulting from a 25% increase in new home deliveries and a 230 basis point improvement in homebuilding gross margin percentage, offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and the provision for income taxes.
Home sales revenue increased $129.7 million, or 30%, to $556.9 million for the second quarter of 2016, as compared to $427.2 million for the same period in 2015.  The increase was primarily attributable to a 25% increase in new home deliveries to 994
New home orders increased 2% to 1,258 homes for the second quarter of 2016, as compared to 1,238 homes for the same period in 2015, which was up 62% from 763 orders for the same period in 2014.  Average active selling communities was 119.5 for each three month period ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. The Company’s overall quarterly absorption rate per average selling community for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 remained strong at 10.5 orders (3.5 monthly) compared to 10.4 orders (3.5 monthly) during the same period in 2015.  
The Company ended the quarter with 1,798 homes in backlog, representing approximately $1.0 billion in future home sales revenue. The average sales price of homes in backlog as of June 30, 2016 decreased $30,000, or 5%, to $571,000 compared to $601,000 at June 30, 2015.  
Homebuilding gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2016 increased to 22.3% compared to 20.0% for the same period in 2015.  Excluding interest and impairments and lot option abandonments in cost of home sales, adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 24.4%* for the second quarter of 2016 versus 22.0%* for the same period in 2015.  
Land and lot sales revenue of $67.3 million for the second quarter of 2016, as compared to $67.5 million for the same period in 2015.  Land and lot sales gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2016 decreased to 78.5% compared to 82.9% for the same period in 2015.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, our Pardee Homes reporting segment sold two parcels, totaling 102 homebuilding lots, located in the Pacific Highlands Ranch community in San Diego, California. Pardee Homes received $61.6 million in cash proceeds from the sale. During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, our Pardee Homes reporting segment sold a commercial site in the Pacific Highlands Ranch community for $53.0 million in cash proceeds. Both transactions involving the Pacific Highlands Ranch community included significant gross margins due to the low land basis of the community which was acquired in 1981.
Selling, general and administrative expense for the second quarter of 2016 improved to 11.3% of home sales revenue as compared to 12.6% for the same period in 2015 due to greater leverage as a result of the 30% increase in home sales revenue.  
 “During the second quarter of 2016 we again proved our ability to sell homes with high average selling prices at an elevated pace and strong margins,” said TRI Pointe Group President and Chief Operating Officer Tom Mitchell.

“Our results this quarter are a testament to our customer driven culture as well as to the quality of our land holdings. We are in a great position to build on the successes from this quarter as we continue to execute on our strategic vision, open new communities and find ways to continue to monetize our sizeable California land position, which we feel holds significant value.”

Outlook
For the third quarter of 2016, the Company anticipates delivering approximately 55% of its 1,798 units in backlog as of June 30, 2016.  In addition, the Company expects to open 16 new communities, and close out of 12, resulting in 121 active selling communities as of September 30, 2016.
For the full year 2016, the Company is reiterating its original guidance of growing communities by 20%, delivering between 4,200 and 4,400 homes at an average sales price of $550,000, a SG&A expense ratio in the range of 10.3% to 10.5% and homebuilding gross margin in a range of 20.5% to 21.5%.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(unaudited)
In this press release, we utilize certain financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We present these measures because we believe they and similar measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance and financing structure. We also believe these measures facilitate the comparison of our operating performance and financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following table reconciles homebuilding gross margin percentage, as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP, to the non-GAAP measure adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that leverage has on homebuilding gross margin and permits investors to make better comparisons with our competitors, who adjust gross margins in a similar fashion.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (continued)
(unaudited)
 
The following table reconciles the Company’s ratio of debt-to-capital to the non-GAAP ratio of net debt-to-capital. We believe that the ratio of net debt-to-capital is a relevant financial measure for management and investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of the Company’s ability to obtain financing.

The ratio of debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing debt by the sum of debt plus equity.

The ratio of net debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is debt less cash and cash equivalents) by the sum of net debt plus equity. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the ratio of debt-to-capital.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (continued)
(unaudited)
 
The following table calculates the non-GAAP measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciles those amounts to net income, as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP.  EBITDA means net income before (a) interest expense, (b) income taxes, (c) depreciation and amortization, (d) expensing of previously capitalized interest included in costs of home sales and (e) amortization of stock-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA means EBITDA before (f) impairment and lot option abandonments and (g) restructuring charges. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (or similarly titled measures) differently. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures of the Company’s ability to service debt and obtain financing.
