Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “We are pleased with our third quarter results as they represent our best quarterly performance in 5 years, and position us to return to full year profitability. We are making meaningful progress on a number of important fronts as housing conditions throughout most of our markets have improved. Net income improved by more than $13 million for the quarter and by more than $39 million for the first nine months. This was our 6th consecutive quarter of year over year improvement in new contracts as we continue to strengthen our market share in virtually every one of our markets. Our gross margin for the quarter equaled
19.8%, representing a 190 basis point improvement over last year's third quarter; and we continue to gain operating leverage as our selling, general and administrative expense ratio also improved. We were also pleased with our 28% increase in closings, as well as a 12% year over year improvement in our average closing price.”
Mr. Schottenstein, continued, "With the combination of improving operating conditions and our return to profitability, we took important steps during the quarter to further strengthen our balance sheet by issuing $58 million of convertible debt and raising $42 million of additional equity. We ended the quarter with $169 million of cash, no borrowings under our $140 million homebuilding credit facility, and a 36% net debt to capital ratio. During the quarter, we also announced our decision to expand into the Austin, Texas market. Looking ahead, we believe we are well positioned to continue expanding our community count and growing the Company.”

Adjusted operating gross margin, adjusted operating gross margin percentage, adjusted pre-tax income (loss) from operations and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Management finds these measures to be useful in evaluating the Company's performance because they disclose the financial results generated from homes the Company actually delivered during the period, as the asset impairments and certain other write-offs relate, in part, to inventory that was not delivered during the period. They also assist the Company's management in making strategic decisions regarding the Company's future operations. The Company believes investors will also find these measures to be important and useful because they disclose financial measures that can be compared to a prior period without regard to the variability of asset impairments and certain other write-offs and unusual charges. In addition, to the extent that the Company's competitors provide similar information, disclosure of these measures helps readers of the Company's financial statements compare the Company's financial results to the results of its competitors with regard to the homes they deliver in the same period. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of the Company's competitors due to potential differences in methods of calculation and charges being excluded. Due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, such measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance measures prescribed by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is also presented in accordance with the terms of our revolving credit facility.
