Taylor Morrison Reports Fourth Quarter Revenue of $1.2 Billion and Earnings per Share of $0.63

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 30, 2017 –– Taylor Morrison Home Corporation (NYSE:TMHC) today reported fourth quarter total revenue of $1.2 billion, net income of $76 million and earnings per share of $0.63, or $0.65 as adjusted.

Fourth Quarter 2016 Highlights:

Full Year 2016 Highlights:

“I am pleased with our organization’s performance both for the fourth quarter and the full year,” said Sheryl Palmer, President and CEO of Taylor Morrison. “Our team members demonstrated great commitment to our strategic priorities while keeping our customers’ needs at the forefront.” This was proven with the recent announcement of the Company being named America’s Most Trusted^® Homebuilder, according to Lifestory Research, for the second year in a row. “At Taylor Morrison, we believe that relationships and trust are the foundation of our success, and I am so proud of our team for this well-deserved recognition and achievement.”

For the full year 2016, the Company was able to deliver strong results both operationally and financially. “We finished the year with higher than expected closings, resulting in a 22% increase year-over-year in earnings per share from continuing operations. We closed 7,369 homes, which represented a nearly 17% increase year-over-year, well above the top range of our guidance as we were able to bring forward and close homes that were originally expected to be completed in January 2017,” said Sheryl Palmer. “Net sales orders totaled 7,504 for the year, which represented a 12% increase over the prior year. Closings and net sales orders growth are on top of double-digit growth from the

previous year, bringing our two-year growth rate for both metrics to over 30%. Community count was up more than 19% year-over-year to an average of 309 communities. This brings our two-year growth rate to 50%.”

“2016 brings an end to two years of planned transformation for Taylor Morrison. Looking forward, we believe we are positioned extremely well to mature with the cycle and drive efficiencies from our strategic foundation as we strive to reach our full potential,” said Sheryl Palmer. “We anticipate numerous benefits from these recent investments to flow through our business and ultimately our financials in 2017 with enhanced scale in certain markets, increased qualified traffic, higher conversion and absorption rates of about 2.3, cycle-time reductions and gains in strategic procurement. This will drive improved EBT dollars and earnings per share year-over-year, while delivering ROE accretion in 2017 and beyond. January 2017 is off to a strong start, with a monthly absorption rate expected to be about 20% higher year-over-year.”.

“The 2016 home closings gross margin was 18.3% as adjusted for a $3.5 million dollar impairment charge taken during the fourth quarter, which was isolated to three assets in our Chicago market,” said Dave Cone, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “Looking to 2017, we anticipate a rising labor cost environment and a higher land basis which will be more than offset by the selling down of our aged completed spec inventory and purchase accounting, leading to accretive home closings gross margin year-over-year in the low to mid 18% range.”

The Company ended the quarter with $300 million in cash and a net homebuilding debt to capitalization ratio of 33.7%. Our share buy-back program is a tool within our capital allocation strategy that we have used periodically when prices were compelling. In 2016, the Company re-purchased roughly 1.9 million shares at a cost basis of $14.87.

Homebuilding inventories were $3.0 billion at the end of 2016, including 3,920 homes in inventory, compared to 3,851 homes in inventory at the end of the prior year. Homes in inventory at the end of the quarter consisted of 2,322 sold units, 412 model homes and 1,186 inventory units, of which 238 were finished. The Company owned or controlled approximately 38,300 lots at December 31, 2016, representing 5.2 years of supply and is focused on securing land for 2019 and beyond.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following tables set forth a reconciliation between our home closings gross margin and our adjusted home closings gross margin, our net income from continuing operations and EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, our net income from continuing operations to our adjusted net income from continuing operations, our earnings per share and adjusted earnings per share, and a reconciliation of our net homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio. Adjusted home closings gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated based on home closings gross margin, excluding impairments, if any, and, separately excluding both impairments, if any, and capitalized interest amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that measures performance by adjusting net income from continuing operations to exclude interest amortized to cost of sales and interest income (net), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash compensation expense and loss on extinguishment of debt, if any. Adjusted net income from continuing operations is a non-GAAP financial that measures performance by adjusting net income from continuing operations to exclude impairments (if any) net of tax benefit. Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that measures performance by adjusting to exclude impairments (if any) net of tax benefit. Net homebuilding debt to capitalization, which we calculate by dividing (i) total debt, less unamortized debt issuance costs and mortgage warehouse borrowings, net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, by (ii) total capitalization (the sum of net homebuilding debt and total stockholders’ equity), is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our performance on a consolidated basis as well as the performance of our regions. We use the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capitalization as an indicator of overall leverage. In the future we may include additional adjustments in the above described non-GAAP financial measures, to the extent we deem them appropriate and useful to management and investors.

We believe adjusted home closings gross margin is useful to investors because it allows investors to evaluate the performance of our homebuilding operations without the often varying effects of interest costs capitalized. We believe adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income from continuing operations, and adjusted earnings per share each provide useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because each allows investors to evaluate our performance without the effects of various items we do not believe are characteristic of our ongoing operations or performance and also because each assists both investors and management in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. Adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, or non-recurring items. We use the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capitalization to evaluate our performance against other companies in the homebuilding industry and believe it is also relevant and useful to investors for that reason.

These measures are considered non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. Although other companies in the homebuilding industry report similar information, the methods used may differ. We urge investors to understand the methods used by other companies in the homebuilding industry to calculate net income, gross margins and total debt to capitalization and any adjustments to such amounts before comparing our measures to those of such other companies.
