M/I Homes Reports
First Quarter Results
Columbus, Ohio (April 25, 2013) - M/I Homes, Inc. (NYSE:MHO) announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
2013 First Quarter Results:
| • | Net income of $4.6 million |
| • | Diluted earnings per share of $0.11 |
| • | New contracts increased 37% |
| • | Homes delivered increased 24% |
| • | Backlog units and value increased 48% and 60%, respectively |
| • | Cash balance of $273 million |
| • | Net debt to net capital ratio of 38% |
For the first quarter, the Company reported net income of $4.6 million and net income to common shareholders of $2.4 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.2 million, or $0.17 per share during the first quarter of 2012. The current quarter net income to common shareholders consists primarily of pre-tax income of $5.8 million (exclusive of $0.9 million of impairment charges), partially offset by a $2.2 million non-cash fair value equity adjustment related to the previously announced redemption of 2,000 of our outstanding preferred shares which was completed on April 10, 2013.
New contracts for the first quarter were 1,047 - a 37% increase over the 764 recorded in 2012's first quarter. Homes delivered in the first quarter were 627, an increase of 24% from the 507 reported for the same period of 2012. Backlog of homes at March 31, 2013 had a sales value of $401 million, with an average sales price of $290,000 and backlog units of 1,385. At March 31, 2012 backlog sales value was $251 million, with an average sales price of $269,000 and backlog units of 933. M/I Homes had 135 active communities at March 31, 2013 compared to 122 at March 31, 2012 and 131 at December 31, 2012. The Company's cancellation rate was 15% in the first quarter of 2013 compared to 14% in 2012's first quarter.
Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “We are very pleased with our first quarter results - achieving our fourth consecutive quarter of net income and fourth consecutive quarter of at least 30% improvement in our new contracts. In addition, we ended the quarter with a strong backlog value of $401 million, representing a 60% improvement over last year. Our gross margin of 20.1% and our selling, general and administrative expense leverage of 15.3% both improved by over 200 basis points from last year's first quarter and our operating margin of 4.8% is the highest level we have achieved since 2006.”
Mr. Schottenstein continued, “Our financial condition remains strong. With the combination of improved operating conditions, our profitability and our plans for new community openings and future growth, we took important steps during the quarter to further strengthen our balance sheet by issuing $86 million of convertible debt and raising $55
million of equity while also announcing the redemption of half of our preferred stock. We ended the quarter with $273 million of cash, had no outstanding borrowings under our $140 million credit facility, and a 38% net debt to net capital ratio. With housing conditions continuing to improve, we are optimistic about our business and look for continued growth.”
