During the fourth quarter, we delivered 2,915 homes, the most homes we have ever closed in a quarter, driven by double digit growth in the Texas and West regions as well as our Century Complete brand. We also achieved gross margin expansion of 510 basis points to 25.9%, another Company record, while SG&A as a percentage of homes sales revenues improved to 9.3%, the lowest in our history, resulting in a 17.6% pre-tax margin, the eighth sequential quarter of improvement. We continue to experience strong consumer demand for affordable, new homes across our entire 17-state footprint and are very well-positioned to capitalize on additional growth opportunities as we further penetrate and increase our share positions within and beyond our 40+ vibrant markets.”

Rob Francescon, Co-Chief Executive Officer and President, said, “The numerous, strategic investments we have made in our business continue to generate robust returns, enhancing the compelling value proposition of our brands, strengthening our competitive positioning and driving ongoing momentum as we execute against our key initiatives. We increased our total lot count to nearly 80,000 lots, approximately 60% of which are controlled, demonstrating not only our robust land pipeline but also our ongoing commitment to a land-light acquisition strategy. We ended the fourth quarter with a record backlog of 4,651 homes valued at over $1.9 billion. We are extremely proud of our fourth quarter and full year accomplishments and, looking ahead to 2022, our 20th year anniversary, we remain confident that the underlying strength of our business will provide a substantial runway for growth, further performance improvement and continued shareholder value creation.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share (Adjusted Diluted EPS) are non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful to management, investors and other users of the Company’s financial information in evaluating its operating results and understanding its operating trends without the effect of certain non-recurring items. The Company believes excluding certain non-recurring items provides more comparable assessment of its financial results from period to period. We define Adjusted Net Income as consolidated net income before (i) income tax expense, (ii) inventory impairment and other (iii) restructuring costs, and (iv) loss on debt extinguishment, less adjusted income tax expense, calculated using the Company’s GAAP tax rate for the applicable period. Adjusted Diluted EPS is calculated by excluding the effect of inventory impairment, restructuring costs and loss on debt extinguishment from the calculation of reported EPS.

The tax rates used in calculating adjusted net income for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was 22.2% and 23.7%, respectively, which are reflective of the Company’s GAAP tax rates for the applicable periods. For the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, our adjusted income tax expense is reflective of our full year effective tax rate of approximately 22.2% and 23.7% applied to adjusted income before income tax expense.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

Adjusted homebuilding gross margin excluding inventory impairment and other and interest is not a measurement of financial performance under United States generally accepted accounting principles; however, the Company’s management believes that this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that inventory impairment and indebtedness have on homebuilding gross margin and permits the Company’s stockholders to make better comparisons with the Company’s competitors, who adjust gross margins in a similar fashion. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be used as a substitute for the Company’s operating results. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure we use as a supplemental measure in evaluating operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as consolidated net income before (i) income tax expense, (ii) interest in cost of home sales revenues, (iii) other interest expense, (iv) depreciation and amortization expense, (v) loss on debt extinguishment, (vi) inventory impairment and other. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, and items considered to be non-recurring. Accordingly, our management believes that this measurement is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, consolidated net income in accordance with GAAP as a measure of performance. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our Adjusted EBITDA is limited as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Ratio of Net Homebuilding Debt to Net Capital

The following table presents the Company’s ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company calculates this by dividing net homebuilding debt (senior notes payable and revolving line of credit less cash and cash equivalents and cash held in escrow) by net capital (net homebuilding debt plus total stockholders’ equity). Homebuilding debt is our total debt minus outstanding borrowings under our mortgage repurchase facilities. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the ratio of debt to capital. The Company believes the ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital is a relevant and useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in its operations and as an indicator of the Company’s ability to obtain external financing.
