Homes delivered for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 28% to 4,277 from 2020's deliveries of 3,330. New contracts for the second quarter of 2021 were 2,267 compared to 2,261 in 2020.

Homes in backlog at June 30, 2021 had a total sales value of $2.5 billion, a 71% increase from a year ago. Backlog units at June 30, 2021 increased 49% to 5,488 homes, with an average sales price of $454,000.

The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has approved a $100 million share repurchase authorization, replacing its existing $50 million share repurchase authorization. From August 14, 2018 through July



27, 2021, the Company repurchased approximately 1.4 million shares for an aggregate purchase price of $32.8 million.
Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “We had a record-setting second quarter highlighted by a 97% increase in net income, a 23% increase in homes delivered, a 35% increase in revenue, and a return on equity of 27%. Our gross margins were very strong, improving 320 basis points over last year to 25.1% and our overhead expense ratio improved by 110 basis points to 10.4%. As a result, our pre-tax income percentage improved to 14.7% from 10.0% in last year’s second quarter. We set all-time quarterly records in backlog units and sales value, with sales value rising to $2.5 billion – a 71% increase from a year-ago. Demand for new homes continues to be very strong. Despite our community count being down throughout the quarter, and significantly limiting sales in the majority of our communities, we were pleased to set a record for second quarter new contracts selling 2,267 homes.

Mr. Schottenstein continued, “We ended the quarter with record-high shareholders’ equity of $1.5 billion, an increase of 34% from 2020’s second quarter, book value of $50 per share, cash of $372 million, no borrowings on our $550 million credit facility, and a homebuilding debt to capital ratio of 31%. During the quarter, we also extended the maturity of our credit facility to July 2025 and raised our commitment amount to $550 million. In addition, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase authorization under which the Company may purchase up to $100 million of our common shares. This share repurchase authorization reflects the strength of our business and our commitment to creating long-term shareholder value. We have significant operating momentum and are poised to continue delivering strong results.”
