New contracts for 2013's fourth quarter were 793 - increasing 18% from 2012's fourth quarter of 673. For 2013, new contracts increased 25% from 3,020 in 2012 to 3,787 in 2013.

The Company's cancellation rate was 19% in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to 21% in 2012's fourth quarter. Homes delivered of 1,120 in 2013's fourth quarter were 26% higher than 2012’s 887 homes delivered. Homes delivered for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 reached their highest level in seven years, increasing 26% to 3,472 from 2012’s deliveries of 2,765. The backlog of homes at December 31, 2013 had a total sales value of $408 million, a 44% increase over a year-ago, with backlog units of 1,280 and an

Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “2013 was a very good year for M/I Homes, with pre-tax income increasing over 200%, revenue growing by 36% and new contracts, homes delivered, backlog units, and backlog sales value each improving by over 25% from 2012. While our results were aided by improving housing market conditions, they also reflect our success in strategically shifting and diversifying our geographic footprint. In 2013, we also gained market share in nearly all of our markets as we opened 65 new communities and increased our community count by 20% from a year-ago. With our fourth quarter new contracts up 18%, we ended 2013 with 315 more units in backlog and a 44% increase in backlog sales value than in 2012.”
Mr. Schottenstein continued, “We begin 2014 with a strong backlog, a strong balance sheet, and a solid land position - controlling 40% more lots than we did a year ago. We ended 2013 with cash of $143 million, shareholders’ equity of $493 million, no borrowings under our $200 million credit facility, and a net debt to net capital ratio of 39%. We remain optimistic about our business and will continue to focus on increasing our profitability and growing our market share.”
