This compares to net income of $22.3 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017. The third quarter of 2018 included a $0.7 million pre-tax purchase accounting charge ($0.02 per diluted share) related to our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes in Detroit, Michigan in the first quarter of 2018. The third quarter of 2017 included a $2.3 million after-tax equity adjustment ($0.07 per diluted share) related to the redemption of preferred shares in that period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company reported net income to common shareholders of $75.3 million, or $2.56 per diluted share, compared to $50.3 million, or $1.73 per diluted share, for the same period of 2017. Year-to-date in 2018, the Company incurred $6.2 million of pre-tax acquisition-related charges ($0.16 per diluted share) and, in the same nine-month period in 2017, incurred $8.5 million ($0.18 per diluted share) for pre-tax stucco-related repair costs in certain of our Florida communities. Exclusive of these charges in both periods and the equity adjustment charge in 2017, year-to-date adjusted net income to common shareholders was $79.9 million in 2018 compared to $58.0 million in 2017’s same period, a 38% increase.
Homes delivered in 2018's third quarter reached a third quarter record of 1,422, increasing 13% from the 1,256 deliveries in 2017’s third quarter. Homes delivered for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 increased 13% to 3,953 from 2017's deliveries of 3,505. New contracts for 2018's third quarter were 1,302, an increase of 6% over 2017's third quarter. For the first nine months of 2018, new contracts increased 15% to a record 4,672 from 4,079 in 2017. Homes in backlog increased 20% at September 30, 2018 to 2,846 units, with a sales value record of $1.1 billion (a 25% increase over last year’s third quarter), and an average sale price of $401,000. At September 30, 2017, the sales value of homes in backlog was $912 million, with an average sale price of $383,000 and backlog units of 2,378. M/I Homes had 212
active communities at September 30, 2018 compared to 179 at September 30, 2017. The Company's cancellation rate was 16% in the third quarter of 2018 and 15% in 2017.
Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “We reported another strong quarter highlighted by all-time third quarter records for new contracts, homes delivered, revenue, and net income. Our backlog sales value reached $1.1 billion - a record for our third quarter and a 25% increase over 2017’s third quarter. We delivered 1,422 homes in the third quarter, a 13% increase over last year, and our pre-tax income improved by 14% reaching a third quarter record of $39.5 million. We are particularly pleased that our adjusted gross margin improved 50 basis points from the second quarter, to 20.5%, and our overhead expense ratio improved 40 basis points from last year’s third quarter to 12.7%. Our growth in pre-tax income, combined with a lower tax rate, resulted in a 31% increase in net income from $22.3 million in last year’s third quarter to a third quarter record of $29.3 million in 2018.”
Mr. Schottenstein continued, “Our financial condition remains strong. We ended the third quarter with record-high shareholders’ equity of $835 million, an increase of 16% from 2017’s third quarter, book value per share of $29.69, and a homebuilding debt to capital ratio of 48%. During the quarter, we also repurchased 437,490 of our common shares. As we begin the final quarter of 2018, we remain well positioned to have another solid year of steady growth and improved financial performance.”
