M/I Homes Reports Second Quarter Results PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 30 July 2010
M/I Homes, Inc. announced results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010.

  2010 Second Quarter Highlights:
  --  Homes delivered increased 61%
  --  Pre-tax income from operations of $1.7 million; net loss of $4.8
      million
  --  Cash balance of $129 million
  --  Fourth consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA
  --  Net debt to net capital ratio of 26%
 

For the second quarter of 2010, the Company reported a net loss of $4.8 million, or $0.26 per share, compared to a net loss of $19.9 million, or $1.26 per share during the second quarter of 2009. The current quarter loss consists of $1.7 million of pre-tax income from operations and $6.5 million of asset impairments. The Company reported a net loss of $13.1 million for the first half of 2010, or $0.71 per share, compared to a net loss of $48.0 million, or $3.22 per share, for the same period a year ago.

Homes delivered in the second quarter of 2010 increased 61% to 790 from 492 in the same period of 2009. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, homes delivered increased 43% to 1,269 from 886 in the same period of 2009. New contracts for 2010's second quarter were 602, down 21% from 2009's second quarter of 759. For the first six months of 2010, new contracts were 1,367 compared to 1,426 in the first six months of 2009. The Company had 109 active communities at June 30, 2010 compared to 106 at June 30, 2009 and 109 at March 31, 2010. The backlog of homes at June 30, 2010 had a sales value of $200 million, consisting of 748 units with an average sales price of $267,000. The backlog of homes at June 30, 2009 had a sales value of $260 million comprised of 1,106 units with an average sales price of $235,000.

Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, "Our second quarter results are highlighted by a number of positives. Homebuilding revenues for the quarter increased 71% driven by a 61% increase in closings. Excluding asset impairments, we recorded a pre-tax operating profit of $1.7 million, an improvement of more than $10 million over last year's second quarter and we achieved our fourth consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA. Our SG & A, as a percentage of revenue, reached its lowest level in more than two years. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of our focus on returning to profitability."

Mr. Schottenstein continued, "At the same time, coincident with the expiration of the tax credit on April 30, 2010, we experienced a noticeable decline in our sales activity for May and June, resulting in a 21% decline in sales for the quarter. Prior to this quarter, we had posted six consecutive quarters of positive year-over-year sales comparisons. In addition to the expiration of the tax credit, we believe the reduction in sales is a reflection of the challenging and uncertain macro economic conditions, marked by weak consumer demand and lack of meaningful job growth. With this continued uncertainty in housing demand, it is important that we have maintained our strong financial condition, with $129 million of cash, no outstanding borrowings under our $140 million homebuilding credit facility, and a 26% net debt to capital ratio."

The Company will broadcast live its earnings conference call today at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. To hear the call, log on to the M/I Homes' website at mihomes.com, click on the "Investors" section of the site, and select "Listen to the Conference Call."

  ====================
 
 

Adjusted operating gross margin, adjusted pre-tax income (loss) from operations, adjusted EBITDA and cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities (excluding land/lot purchases and sales and land development spending) 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 profitability measures that can be compared to a prior period without regard to the variability of asset impairments and certain other write-offs. 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 profits to the profits 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.
