“I am pleased to announce that 2017 is off to a strong start,” said TRI Pointe Group Chief Executive Officer Doug Bauer. “Orders grew 13% in the first quarter on a year-over-year basis thanks to a 10% increase in average selling community count and a strong absorption rate of 3.5 orders per community per month. Deliveries and homebuilding gross margins came in ahead of our projections due to solid execution by our teams in the field. These results, combined with the continued progress we made in bringing our long dated California land assets to market, put us in an excellent position to achieve our goals for this year and beyond.”

First Quarter 2017 Operating Results
Net income available to common stockholders was $8.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2017, compared to net income available to common stockholders of $28.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2016. The decrease in net income available to common stockholders was primarily driven by lower home sales revenue and a $25.0 million decrease in homebuilding gross margin, resulting in a 450 basis point decrease in homebuilding gross margin percentage.
Home sales revenue decreased $31.1 million, or 7%, to $392.0 million for the first quarter of 2017, as compared to $423.1 million for the first quarter of 2016. The decrease was primarily attributable to a 2% decrease in new home deliveries to 758, and a 6% decrease in average selling price of homes delivered to $517,000 compared to $549,000 in the first quarter of 2016.
New home orders increased 13% to 1,299 homes for the first quarter of 2017, as compared to 1,149 homes for the same period in 2016. Average selling communities increased 10% to 125.5 for the first quarter of 2017 compared to 114.5 for the first quarter of 2016. The Company’s overall absorption rate per average selling community for the first quarter of 2017 was 10.4 orders (3.5 monthly) compared to 10.0 orders (3.3 monthly) during the first quarter of 2016.
The Company ended the quarter with 1,734 homes in backlog, representing approximately $1.0 billion. The average sales price of homes in backlog as of March 31, 2017 increased $4,000, or 1%, to $585,000 compared to $581,000 at March 31, 2016.
Homebuilding gross margin percentage for the first quarter of 2017 decreased to 18.8% compared to 23.3% for the first quarter of 2016. Excluding interest and impairments and lot option abandonments in cost of home sales, adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 21.3%* for the first quarter of 2017 compared to 25.4%* for the first quarter of 2016. The decrease in homebuilding gross margin percentage was largely due to the mix of homes delivered.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense for the first quarter of 2017 increased to 15.7% of home sales revenue as compared to 13.0% for the first quarter of 2016 due to the incremental general and administrative costs associated with growing our Company and the decreased leverage as a result of the 7% decrease in home sales revenue.
“The fact that the majority of our brands achieved a sales pace of at least three homes per community per month in the quarter is a strong indication that the housing fundamentals in our markets are strong and potentially supportive of future price increases,” said TRI Pointe Group President and Chief Operating Officer Tom Mitchell. “We are even more encouraged by the fact that the communities we have opened in 2017 and 2016 are selling at a faster pace than the communities we opened prior to 2016. These trends are great indicators for both sales and pricing momentum going forward.”

Outlook
For the second quarter of 2017, the Company expects to open 18 new communities, and close out of 14, resulting in 127 active selling communities as of June 30, 2017. In addition, the Company anticipates delivering approximately 58% of its 1,734 units in backlog as of March 31, 2017 at an average sales price of approximately $550,000. The Company anticipates its homebuilding gross margin percentage to be in a range of 19.5% to 20.5% for the second quarter.
For the full year 2017, the Company is reiterating its original guidance of growing average selling communities by 10%, delivering between 4,500 and 4,800 homes at an average sales price of $570,000, a homebuilding gross margin percentage in a range of 20.0% to 21.0% and a SG&A expense ratio in the range of 10.2% to 10.4% of home sales revenue. In addition, the Company anticipates gross profit from land and lot sales of approximately $45 million, most of which is expected to be realized in the third quarter of 2017.

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.

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 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.
