NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 2018
NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include the accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. and all of its 100% owned, majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the Company, unless the context otherwise requires. Noncontrolling interests represent the proportionate equity interests in consolidated entities that are not 100% owned by the Company. The Company owns a 75% controlling interest in Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar) and therefore is required to consolidate 100% of Forestar within its consolidated financial statements, and the 25% interest the Company does not own is accounted for as noncontrolling interests. The Company’s investment in unconsolidated entities in which significant influence, but not control, is held is accounted for by the equity method of accounting. All intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. These financial statements, including the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017, which was derived from audited financial statements, do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017.
Change in Presentation and Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the current year’s presentation. The Company has changed the presentation of the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations to present its homebuilding, land development, financial services and other operations on a combined basis. Prior year amounts have also been combined to reflect this presentation. Of the $56.7 million accounts payable and other liabilities in financial services and other operations at September 30, 2017, $4.8 million is classified as accounts payable and $51.9 million is classified as accrued expenses and other liabilities under the new presentation. See Note B for detailed financial information for the Company’s reporting segments.
Additionally, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on October 1, 2017, $5.1 million of cash paid for shares withheld for taxes on stock-based awards was reclassified from operating cash flows to financing cash flows in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2017. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Seasonality
Historically, the homebuilding industry has experienced seasonal fluctuations; therefore, the operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018 or subsequent periods.

Business Acquisition
On October 5, 2017, the Company acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar for $558.3 million in cash, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement entered into in June 2017 (the acquisition). Forestar was and continues to be a publicly traded residential and real estate development company with operations currently in 20 markets and 11 states.
The Company’s alignment with Forestar advances its strategy of increasing its access to optioned land and lot positions to enhance operational efficiency and returns. Both companies are identifying land development opportunities to expand Forestar’s platform, and the Company plans to acquire a large portion of finished lots from Forestar in accordance with the master supply agreement between the two companies. As the controlling shareholder of Forestar, the Company has significant influence in guiding the strategic direction and operations of Forestar.
The Company hired a valuation firm to assist in the allocation of the purchase price to Forestar’s assets and liabilities. The fair values of inventories and the investment in unconsolidated entities were determined by discounting the expected future cash flows using discount rates of approximately 16% to 22% or based on contract prices from third parties. The fair values of inventories and the investment in unconsolidated entities utilized significant inputs not observable in the market, and thus represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of noncontrolling interests was based on valuing the Forestar shares that were not purchased by the Company at the weighted average stock price of Forestar on the acquisition date, which is a Level 1 measurement. The fair value of notes payable was based on quoted market prices, which is a Level 2 measurement. The fair values of other assets and liabilities primarily approximate carrying value due to their short-term nature, which is a Level 1 measurement.
The purchase price was allocated based on the estimated fair value of 100% of Forestar’s assets and liabilities, as follows (in millions):

Cash | $ | 401.9 |
Inventories | 334.6 |
Investment in unconsolidated entities | 98.5 |
Other assets | 51.6 |
Goodwill | 29.2 |
Total assets | 915.8 |
Accounts payable | 2.8 |
Accrued expenses and other liabilities | 49.4 |
Notes payable | 130.1 |
Total liabilities | 182.3 |
Less: Noncontrolling interests | 175.2 |
Net assets acquired | $ | 558.3 |

As a result of the acquisition, the Company recorded $29.2 million of goodwill, none of which is tax deductible. The goodwill relates to expected synergies from the relationship with Forestar under the master supply agreement that will increase the Company’s access to optioned land and lot positions. The transaction costs incurred by D.R. Horton related to this acquisition totaled $7.2 million, of which $5.3 million was incurred during the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and expensed to selling, general and administrative expense.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and allows for full retrospective or modified retrospective methods of adoption. The Company plans to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method. Upon adoption of the standard, the Company expects to record an adjustment to increase retained earnings and recognize a contract asset for expected future insurance brokerage commission renewals. The Company has not yet determined the amount of this adjustment and is continuing to evaluate other effects of the standard.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires that lease assets and liabilities be recognized on the balance sheet and that key information about leasing arrangements be disclosed. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2019, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information in determining credit loss estimates. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which amends and clarifies the current guidance to reduce diversity in practice of the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated statements of cash flows.

June 30, 2018
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes - Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory,” which requires companies to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or cash flows.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows - Restricted Cash,” which requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the total beginning and ending amounts for the periods shown on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or cash flows.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations - Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. As permitted, the Company elected to early adopt this guidance in the current quarter. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” The guidance simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing the second step of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. Under the new guidance, goodwill impairment is measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value with the loss recognized limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, “Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets,” which updates the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset and clarifies the derecognition guidance for nonfinancial assets to conform to the new revenue recognition standard (ASU 2014-09). The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018, concurrent with the adoption of ASU 2014-09, as required. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting,” which clarifies which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required if the fair value, vesting conditions or classification (equity or liability) of the new award are different from the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company’s homebuilding divisions and Forestar are currently identifying land development opportunities to expand Forestar’s platform, and the homebuilding divisions expect to acquire finished lots from Forestar in accordance with the master supply agreement. Forestar’s segment results are presented on their historical cost basis, consistent with the manner in which management evaluates segment performance.
The Company’s financial services segment provides mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of the Company’s homebuilding markets. The segment generates the substantial majority of its revenues from originating and selling mortgages and collecting fees for title insurance agency and closing services. The Company sells substantially all of the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers.
In addition to its core homebuilding, land development and financial services operations, the Company has subsidiaries that engage in other business activities. These subsidiaries conduct insurance-related operations, construct and own income-producing rental properties, own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements and own and operate oil and gas related assets. One of these subsidiaries, DHI Communities, is developing and constructing multi-family rental properties on land parcels the Company already owned and currently has five projects under active construction and one project that is substantially complete. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, property and equipment in the consolidated balance sheets included $152.0 million and $93.7 million, respectively, of costs incurred by DHI Communities. The operating results of these subsidiaries are immaterial for separate reporting and therefore are grouped together and presented as other.

Debt issuance costs that were deducted from the carrying amounts of the homebuilding senior notes totaled $9.3 million and $9.5 million at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. These costs are capitalized into inventory as they are amortized. Forestar’s 3.75% convertible senior notes due 2020 include an unamortized fair value adjustment of $9.7 million at June 30, 2018.
Homebuilding:
The Company has a $1.275 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $1.9 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to approximately 50% of the revolving credit commitment. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be based on either the Prime Rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin, as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility. The maturity date of the facility is September 25, 2022. Borrowings and repayments under the facility totaled $1.8 billion each during the nine months ended June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018, there were no borrowings outstanding and $87.1 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility.

The Company’s revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on its operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and a borrowing base restriction if the Company’s ratio of debt to tangible net worth exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility and the indenture governing the senior notes also impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility and public debt obligations.
The Company has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in August 2015, registering debt and equity securities that the Company may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined.
In December 2017, the Company issued $400 million principal amount of 2.55% senior notes due December 1, 2020, with interest payable semi-annually. The notes represent unsecured obligations of the Company. The annual effective interest rate of these notes after giving effect to the amortization of financing costs is 2.8%. In December 2017, the Company redeemed $400 million principal amount of its 3.625% senior notes due February 2018. The senior notes were redeemed at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest.
Effective August 1, 2017, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s debt securities effective through July 31, 2018. All of the $500 million authorization was remaining at June 30, 2018. In July 2018, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s debt securities effective through September 30, 2019, which replaced the previous authorization.
Forestar:
On October 5, 2017, Forestar terminated its $50 million senior credit facility. The $50 million senior credit facility included a $50 million sublimit for letters of credit. Also on October 5, 2017, Forestar entered into a new agreement providing for a $30 million secured standby letter of credit facility, secured by $40 million in cash, which is included in restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2018, letters of credit outstanding under the new facility totaled $21.5 million. Forestar is currently pursuing a new revolving credit facility to support future growth.
On October 5, 2017, Forestar had $120 million principal amount of 3.75% convertible senior notes due 2020. The completion of the acquisition resulted in a fundamental change in the notes as described in the related note indentures and as a result, Forestar offered to purchase all or any part of every holder’s convertible senior notes for a price in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. As a result, Forestar purchased $1.1 million of the aggregate principal amount of the notes. Also, prior to the acquisition, upon conversion of the notes each holder was entitled to receive 40.8351 shares of former Forestar common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes surrendered for conversion. In connection with the acquisition, the conversion ratio was adjusted in accordance with the indenture governing the convertible notes such that each holder is now entitled to receive $579.77062 in cash and 8.17192 shares of new Forestar common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes surrendered for conversion. The convertible senior notes are not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s homebuilding debt.

Financial Services:
The Company’s mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has a mortgage repurchase facility that is accounted for as a secured financing. The mortgage repurchase facility provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties against the transfer of funds by the counterparties, thereby becoming purchased loans. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 60 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. The total capacity of the facility is $600 million; however, the capacity increases, without requiring additional commitments, to $725 million for approximately 30 days at each quarter end and to $800 million for approximately 45 days at fiscal year end. The capacity of the facility can also be increased to $1.0 billion subject to the availability of additional commitments. The maturity date of the facility is February 22, 2019.
As of June 30, 2018, $639.4 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $619.8 million were pledged under the mortgage repurchase facility. As a result of advance paydowns totaling $93.5 million, DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $526.3 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at June 30, 2018 at a 3.9% annual interest rate.
The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported to the lenders monthly. At June 30, 2018, DHI Mortgage was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility.
In the past, DHI Mortgage has been able to renew or extend its mortgage credit facility at a sufficient capacity and on satisfactory terms prior to its maturity and obtain temporary additional commitments through amendments to the credit facility during periods of higher than normal volumes of mortgages held for sale. The liquidity of the Company’s financial services business depends upon its continued ability to renew and extend the mortgage repurchase facility or to obtain other additional financing in sufficient capacities.

NOTE E – CAPITALIZED INTEREST
The Company capitalizes interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. During periods in which the Company’s active inventory is lower than its debt level, a portion of the interest incurred is reflected as interest expense in the period incurred. During the first nine months of fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the Company’s active inventory exceeded its debt level, and all interest incurred was capitalized to inventory.
The following table summarizes the Company’s interest costs incurred, capitalized and expensed during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Nine Months Ended June 30,
|  | 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017

Capitalized interest, end of period |  | $ | 165.7 |  |  | $ | 179.9 |  |  | $ | 165.7 |  |  | $ | 179.9 |

_______________

(1) | Interest incurred included interest on the Company's mortgage repurchase facility of $3.4 million and $7.9 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and $2.4 million and $5.9 million in the same periods of fiscal 2017. Also included in the fiscal 2018 amounts is interest incurred by Forestar of $0.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and $2.3 million from the acquisition date through June 30, 2018.

NOTE F – MORTGAGE LOANS
Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
Mortgage loans held for sale consist primarily of single-family residential loans collateralized by the underlying property. At June 30, 2018, mortgage loans held for sale had an aggregate carrying value of $679.9 million and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $659.2 million. At September 30, 2017, mortgage loans held for sale had an aggregate carrying value of $587.3 million and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $570.8 million. During the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, mortgage loans originated totaled $5.5 billion and $4.8 billion, respectively, and mortgage loans sold totaled $5.4 billion and $4.8 billion, respectively. The Company had gains on sales of loans and servicing rights of $68.0 million and $193.7 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $65.0 million and $185.9 million in the prior year periods. Net gains on sales of loans and servicing rights are included in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Approximately 93% of the mortgage loans sold by DHI Mortgage during the nine months ended June 30, 2018 were sold to four major financial entities, one of which purchased 38% of the total loans sold.
To manage the interest rate risk inherent in its mortgage operations, the Company hedges its risk using derivative instruments, generally forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), which are referred to as “hedging instruments” in the following discussion. The Company does not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)
June 30, 2018
Newly originated loans that have been closed but not committed to third-party purchasers are hedged to mitigate the risk of changes in their fair value. Hedged loans are committed to third-party purchasers typically within three days after origination. The notional amounts of the hedging instruments used to hedge mortgage loans held for sale vary in relationship to the underlying loan amounts, depending on the movements in the value of each hedging instrument relative to the value of the underlying mortgage loans. The fair value change related to the hedging instruments generally offsets the fair value change in the mortgage loans held for sale. The net fair value change, which for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was not significant, is recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale that were not committed to third-party purchasers totaled $428.6 million and $330.7 million, respectively, and the notional amounts of the hedging instruments related to those loans totaled $428.6 million and $330.7 million, respectively.
Other Mortgage Loans and Loss Reserves
Mortgage loans are sold with limited recourse provisions derived from industry-standard representations and warranties in the relevant agreements. These representations and warranties primarily involve the absence of misrepresentations by the borrower or other parties, the appropriate underwriting of the loan and in some cases, a required minimum number of payments to be made by the borrower. The Company generally does not retain any other continuing interest related to mortgage loans sold in the secondary market. The majority of other mortgage loans consists of loans repurchased due to these limited recourse obligations. Typically, these loans are impaired, and some become real estate owned through the foreclosure process. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s total other mortgage loans and real estate owned, before loss reserves, were as follows:

|  | June 30, 2018 |  | September 30, 2017
|  | (In millions)
Other mortgage loans |  | $ | 8.6 |  |  | $ | 8.3 |
Real estate owned |  | — |  |  | — |
|  | $ | 8.6 |  |  | $ | 8.3 |

The Company has recorded reserves for estimated losses on other mortgage loans and future loan repurchase obligations due to the limited recourse provisions, both of which are recorded as reductions of revenue. The loss reserve for loan repurchase and settlement obligations is estimated based on analysis of the volume of mortgages originated, loan repurchase requests received, actual repurchases and losses through the disposition of such loans or requests and discussions with mortgage purchasers. The reserve balances at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017 were as follows:

|  | June 30, 2018 |  | September 30, 2017
|  | (In millions)
Loss reserves related to: |  |  |  |
Other mortgage loans |  | $ | 0.9 |  |  | $ | 1.0 |
Loan repurchase and settlement obligations – known and expected |  | 7.0 |  |  | 7.7 |
|  | $ | 7.9 |  |  | $ | 8.7 |

Other mortgage loans and real estate owned net of the related loss reserves are included in other assets, while loan repurchase obligations are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Loan Commitments and Related Derivatives
The Company is party to interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs), which are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the notional amount of IRLCs, which are accounted for as derivative instruments recorded at fair value, totaled $706.8 million and $446.2 million, respectively.
The Company manages interest rate risk related to its IRLCs through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments and hedging instruments. These instruments are considered derivatives in an economic hedge and are accounted for at fair value with gains and losses recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the notional amount of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments totaled $49.6 million and $26.9 million, respectively, and the notional amount of hedging instruments related to IRLCs not yet committed to purchasers totaled $610.4 million and $389.3 million, respectively.
NOTE G – INCOME TAXES
The Company’s income tax expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 was $162.5 million and $458.9 million, respectively, compared to $155.5 million and $391.4 million in the prior year periods. The effective tax rate was 26.4% and 31.6% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 35.0% and 35.1% in the prior year periods. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 reflect the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act), which was enacted into law on December 22, 2017, an excess tax benefit related to stock-based compensation and the enactment of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, which retroactively extended the expiration date of the federal energy efficient home credit from December 31, 2016 until December 31, 2017. The effective tax rates for all periods include an expense for state income taxes, reduced by tax benefits for the domestic production activities deduction.
The Tax Act reduced the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% for all corporations effective January 1, 2018. For fiscal year companies, the change in law requires the application of a blended tax rate in the year of change, which for the Company is 24.5% for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. Thereafter, the applicable statutory tax rate is 21%. ASC 740 requires all companies to reflect the effects of the new law in the period in which the law was enacted. Accordingly, the Company reduced the statutory tax rate that applied to its year-to-date earnings from 35% to 24.5%. In addition, the Company remeasured its deferred tax assets and liabilities for the tax law change, which resulted in additional income tax expense of $108.7 million recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The initial remeasurement was the Company’s best estimate based on the information available at the time. Adjustments to deferred tax expense will continue to be recognized to the extent the actual timing of future deferred tax reversals and originations differ from original estimates and will be recorded in subsequent quarters until the filing of the Company’s federal tax return. Any required adjustment will be reflected as a discrete expense or benefit in the quarter that it is identified, as allowed by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, no significant adjustments to the remeasurement of the Company’s deferred tax accounts were recognized. No other tax law changes as a result of the Tax Act are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $233.9 million at June 30, 2018 compared to $376.2 million at September 30, 2017.
On October 5, 2017, the Company acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar. The Company recorded goodwill of $29.2 million, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets of $20.4 million and a valuation allowance of $20.1 million were recorded as a result of the acquisition. At the acquisition date, the Company considered whether it was more likely than not that some portion or all of Forestar’s deferred tax assets would not be realized. In making such judgment, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence. The Company determined that Forestar’s cumulative losses in recent years were a significant piece of negative evidence that outweighed the positive evidence, and a valuation allowance was recorded.

June 30, 2018
In addition to the valuation allowance relating to Forestar’s deferred tax assets, the Company has a valuation allowance related to state deferred tax assets for net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards. The valuation allowance was recorded because it is more likely than not that a portion of the state NOL carryforwards will not be realized because some state NOL carryforward periods are too brief to realize the related deferred tax asset. The Company’s total valuation allowance was $29.3 million at June 30, 2018 and $11.2 million at September 30, 2017. The Company will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to its remaining state NOL carryforwards and Forestar’s deferred tax assets. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact the Company’s effective tax rate.
The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets.

NOTE J – EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
The Company’s Stock Incentive Plan provides for the granting of stock options and restricted stock units to executive officers, other key employees and non-management directors. Restricted stock unit awards may be based on performance (performance-based) or on service over a requisite time period (time-based). Performance-based and time-based RSU equity awards represent the contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per RSU if the vesting conditions and/or performance criteria are satisfied. The RSUs have no dividend or voting rights until vested.
In November 2017, a total of 330,000 performance-based RSU equity awards were granted to the Company’s Chairman, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Operating Officer. These awards vest at the end of a three-year performance period ending September 30, 2020. The number of units that ultimately vest depends on the Company’s relative position as compared to its peers in achieving certain performance criteria and can range from 0% to 200% of the number of units granted. The performance criteria are total shareholder return; return on investment; selling, general and administrative expense containment; and gross profit. The grant date fair value of these equity awards was $45.79 per unit. Compensation expense related to these grants was $1.5 million and $4.5 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, based on the Company’s performance against its peer group, the elapsed portion of the performance period and the grant date fair value of the award. Also, 40,000 time-based RSUs were granted to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer in November 2017. These time-based RSUs vest annually in equal installments over a three-year period ending November 2020. The fair value of this equity award on the date of grant was $43.46 per unit.
In March 2018, a total of 1.7 million time-based RSUs were granted to approximately 920 recipients, including the Company’s executive officers, other key employees and non-management directors. The weighted average grant date fair value of these equity awards was $41.78 per unit, and they vest annually in equal installments over periods of three to five years. Compensation expense related to these grants was $3.6 million and $8.4 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

NOTE K – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Warranty Claims
The Company provides its homebuyers with a ten-year limited warranty for major defects in structural elements such as framing components and foundation systems, a two-year limited warranty on major mechanical systems, and a one-year limited warranty on other construction components. The Company’s warranty liability is based upon historical warranty cost experience in each market in which it operates and is adjusted to reflect qualitative risks associated with the types of homes built and the geographic areas in which they are built.
Changes in the Company’s warranty liability during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Nine Months Ended June 30,
|  | 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
|  | (In millions)

Warranty liability, end of period |  | $ | 176.4 |  |  | $ | 120.3 |  |  | $ | 176.4 |  |  | $ | 120.3 |

Legal Claims and Insurance
The Company is named as a defendant in various claims, complaints and other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. At any point in time, the Company is managing several hundred individual claims related to construction defect matters, personal injury claims, employment matters, land development issues, contract disputes and other matters. The Company has established reserves for these contingencies based on the estimated costs of pending claims and the estimated costs of anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes. The estimated liabilities for these contingencies were $407.8 million and $420.6 million at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively, and are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Approximately 99% and 98% of these reserves related to construction defect matters at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. Expenses related to the Company’s legal contingencies were $47.5 million and $80.6 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
The Company’s reserves for construction defect claims include the estimated costs of both known claims and anticipated future claims. As of June 30, 2018, no individual existing claim was material to the Company’s financial statements. The Company has closed a significant number of homes during recent years and may be subject to future construction defect claims on these homes. Although regulations vary from state to state, construction defect issues can generally be reported for up to ten years after the home has closed in many states in which the Company operates. Historical data and trends regarding the frequency of claims incurred and the costs to resolve claims relative to the types of products and markets where the Company operates are used to estimate the construction defect liabilities for both existing and anticipated future claims. These estimates are subject to ongoing revision as the circumstances of individual pending claims and historical data and trends change. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)
June 30, 2018
Historical trends in construction defect claims have been inconsistent, and the Company believes they may continue to fluctuate. Housing market conditions have been volatile across most of the Company’s markets over the past ten years, and the Company believes such conditions can affect the frequency and cost of construction defect claims. If the ultimate resolution of construction defect claims resulting from the Company’s home closings in prior years varies from current expectations, it could significantly change the Company’s estimates regarding the frequency and timing of claims incurred and the costs to resolve existing and anticipated future claims, which would impact the construction defect reserves in the future. If the frequency of claims incurred or costs of existing and future legal claims significantly exceed the Company’s current estimates, they will have a significant negative impact on its future earnings and liquidity.
The Company’s reserves for legal claims decreased from $420.6 million at September 30, 2017 to $407.8 million at June 30, 2018. The decrease in reserves is due to a decrease in known claims. Changes in the Company’s legal claims reserves during the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

| Nine Months Ended June 30,
| 2018 |  | 2017
| (In millions)
Reserves for legal claims, beginning of period | $ | 420.6 |  |  | $ | 423.5 |
Increase in reserves | 47.2 |  |  | 86.2 |
Payments | (60.0 | ) |  | (56.2 | )
Reserves for legal claims, end of period | $ | 407.8 |  |  | $ | 453.5 |

The Company estimates and records receivables under its applicable insurance policies related to its estimated contingencies for known claims and anticipated future construction defect claims on previously closed homes and other legal claims and lawsuits incurred in the ordinary course of business when recovery is probable. Additionally, the Company may have the ability to recover a portion of its losses from its subcontractors and their insurance carriers when the Company has been named as an additional insured on their insurance policies. The Company’s receivables related to its estimates of insurance recoveries from estimated losses for pending legal claims and anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes totaled $56.0 million, $74.4 million and $82.6 million at June 30, 2018, September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively, and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
The estimation of losses related to these reserves and the related estimates of recoveries from insurance policies are subject to a high degree of variability due to uncertainties such as trends in construction defect claims relative to the Company’s markets and the types of products built, claim frequency, claim settlement costs and patterns, insurance industry practices and legal interpretations, among others. Due to the high degree of judgment required in establishing reserves for these contingencies, actual future costs and recoveries from insurance could differ significantly from current estimated amounts, and it is not possible for the Company to make a reasonable estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of its reserves.
Land and Lot Option Purchase Contracts
The Company enters into land and lot option purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. Under these contracts, the Company will fund a stated deposit in consideration for the right, but not the obligation, to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. Under the terms of many of the option purchase contracts, the option deposits are not refundable in the event the Company elects to terminate the contract. Option deposits are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)
June 30, 2018
At June 30, 2018, the Company’s homebuilding segment had total option deposits of $345.5 million, consisting of cash deposits of $341.3 million and promissory notes and letters of credit of $4.2 million, to purchase land and lots with a total remaining purchase price of approximately $5.8 billion. The majority of land and lots under contract are currently expected to be purchased within three years. Of these amounts, $38.4 million of the option deposits related to contracts with Forestar to purchase land and lots with a remaining purchase price of $402.0 million. A limited number of the homebuilding land and lot option purchase contracts at June 30, 2018, representing $74.8 million of remaining purchase price, were subject to specific performance provisions which may require the Company to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their contractual obligations. Of the $74.8 million remaining purchase price subject to specific performance provisions, $34.7 million related to a contract between the homebuilding segment and Forestar.
At June 30, 2018, Forestar had total option deposits of $3.9 million to purchase land and lots from third parties with a total remaining purchase price of approximately $59.3 million.
Option purchase contracts can result in the creation of a variable interest in the entity holding the land parcel under option. There were no variable interest entities reported in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017 because, with regard to each entity, the Company determined it did not control the activities that most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s economic performance, and it did not have an obligation to absorb losses of or the right to receive benefits from the entity. The maximum exposure to losses related to the Company’s variable interest entities is limited to the amounts of the Company’s related option deposits. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the option deposits related to these contracts totaled $281.6 million and $222.9 million, respectively.
Other Commitments
At June 30, 2018, the Company had outstanding surety bonds of $1.3 billion and letters of credit of $110.0 million to secure performance under various contracts. Of the total letters of credit, $87.1 million were issued under the Company’s revolving credit facility and $21.5 million were issued under Forestar’s senior credit facility. The remaining $1.4 million of letters of credit were issued under a secured letter of credit agreement requiring the Company to deposit cash as collateral with the issuing bank, and the cash restricted for this purpose is included in restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE N – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value measurements are used for the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale, debt securities collateralized by residential real estate, IRLCs and other derivative instruments on a recurring basis and are used for inventories, other mortgage loans and real estate owned on a nonrecurring basis, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value hierarchy and its application to the Company’s assets and liabilities is as follows:

• | Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The Company does not currently have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs.

• | Level 2 – Valuation is determined from quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market. The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value using Level 2 inputs on a recurring basis are as follows:

▪ | mortgage loans held for sale;

▪ | IRLCs; and

▪ | loan sale commitments and hedging instruments.

The Company’s assets measured at fair value using Level 2 inputs on a nonrecurring basis are a limited number of mortgage loans held for sale with some degree of impairment affecting their marketability and are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value. When available, fair value is determined by reference to quoted prices in the secondary markets for such assets.

• | Level 3 – Valuation is typically derived from model-based techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable and based on the Company’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use to value the asset or liability.

The Company’s assets measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs on a recurring basis are as follows:

▪ | debt securities collateralized by residential real estate; and

▪ | a limited number of mortgage loans held for sale with some degree of impairment affecting their marketability and for which reference to quoted prices in the secondary markets is not available.

The Company’s assets measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs that are typically reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value on a nonrecurring basis are as follows:

▪ | inventory held and used;

▪ | inventory available for sale;

▪ | certain mortgage loans held for sale;

▪ | certain other mortgage loans; and

▪ | real estate owned.

___________________

(a) | The Company typically elects the fair value option upon origination for mortgage loans held for sale. Interest income earned on mortgage loans held for sale is based on contractual interest rates and included in other income. Mortgage loans held for sale valued using Level 3 inputs at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017 include $6.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of loans for which the Company elected the fair value option upon origination and did not sell into the secondary market. Mortgage loans held for sale totaling $7.1 million and $6.6 million were transferred to Level 3 during the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, due to significant unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of these loans. The fair value of these mortgage loans held for sale is generally calculated considering pricing in the secondary market and adjusted for the value of the underlying collateral, including interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. The Company plans to sell these loans as market conditions permit.

(b) | Fair value measurements of these derivatives represent changes in fair value, as calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets, and are reflected in the balance sheet as other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are included in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company’s subsidiaries associated with the Forestar land development operation, the financial services operations and certain other subsidiaries do not guarantee the Company’s senior notes or the revolving credit facility (collectively, Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries). In lieu of providing separate financial statements for the Guarantor Subsidiaries, consolidating condensed financial statements are presented below. Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that they are not material to investors.
The guarantees by a Guarantor Subsidiary will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon: (1) the sale or other disposition of its common stock whereby it is no longer a subsidiary of the Company; (2) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets (other than to the Company or another Guarantor); (3) its merger or consolidation with an entity other than the Company or another Guarantor; or (4) depending on the provisions of the applicable indenture, either its (a) proper designation as an unrestricted subsidiary, (b) ceasing to guarantee any of the Company’s publicly traded debt securities, or (c) ceasing to guarantee any of the Company’s obligations under the revolving credit facility.
To conform to the current year presentation, the Company’s equity in income of subsidiaries in its condensed consolidating statements of operations for the fiscal 2017 periods is presented after income tax expense. As a result, the amounts of equity in income of subsidiaries and income tax expense were each reduced by $111.1 million and $299.2 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, in both the D.R. Horton, Inc. and Eliminations columns. This reclassification, which the Company determined was not material, had no impact on any financial statements or notes, except for the D.R. Horton, Inc. and Eliminations columns of the condensed consolidating statements of operations in this Supplemental Guarantor Information note. Prior period financial information will be presented similarly in the condensed consolidating statement of operations of future filings.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this quarterly report and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis constitutes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section following this discussion.
BUSINESS
D.R. Horton, Inc. is the largest homebuilding company in the United States as measured by number of homes closed and revenues. We construct and sell homes through our operating divisions in 80 markets in 26 states, under the names of D.R. Horton, America’s Builder, Emerald Homes, Express Homes, Freedom Homes and Pacific Ridge Homes. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “D.R. Horton,” the “Company,” “we” and “our” used herein refer to D.R. Horton, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its predecessors and subsidiaries.
Our business operations consist of homebuilding, land development, financial services and other activities. Our homebuilding operations primarily include the construction and sale of single-family homes with sales prices generally ranging from $100,000 to more than $1,000,000, with an average closing price of $299,100 during the nine months ended June 30, 2018. Approximately 89% of our home sales revenues in the nine months ended June 30, 2018 were generated from the sale of single-family detached homes, with the remainder from the sale of attached homes, such as townhomes, duplexes and triplexes.
On October 5, 2017, we acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar), a publicly traded residential and real estate development company, for $558.3 million in cash (the acquisition). The acquisition is a component of our strategy to expand relationships with land developers and increase the optioned portion of our land and lot position to enhance operational efficiency and returns.
Our financial services operations provide mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of our homebuilding markets. DHI Mortgage, our 100% owned subsidiary, provides mortgage financing services primarily to our homebuyers and generally sells the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers. DHI Mortgage originates loans in accordance with purchaser guidelines and sells substantially all of its mortgage production shortly after origination. Our 100% owned subsidiary title companies serve as title insurance agents by providing title insurance policies, examination and closing services, primarily to our homebuyers.
In addition to our core homebuilding, land development and financial services operations, we have subsidiaries that engage in other business activities. These subsidiaries conduct insurance-related operations, construct and own income-producing rental properties, own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements and own and operate oil and gas related assets. One of these subsidiaries, DHI Communities, is developing and constructing multi-family rental properties on land parcels we already owned and currently has five projects under active construction and one project that is substantially complete. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, property and equipment in our consolidated balance sheets included $152.0 million and $93.7 million, respectively, of costs incurred by DHI Communities. The combined assets of all of our subsidiaries engaged in other business activities totaled $197.7 million and $143.3 million at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively, and the combined pre-tax loss of these subsidiaries was $3.1 million and $6.4 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and $4.6 million and $7.7 million in the same periods of fiscal 2017.

OVERVIEW
Market conditions during the first nine months of fiscal 2018 have continued to improve as demand for new homes across most of our markets remains strong, particularly at affordable price points, and the supply of new homes remains limited. The level of strength in new home demand and home prices across our markets is generally reflective of the relative strength of each market’s economy, as measured by job growth, household incomes, household formations and consumer confidence.
Our position as the largest and most geographically diverse homebuilder in the United States provides a strong platform for us to compete for new home sales. In recent years, we have focused on expanding our product offerings to more consistently include a broad range of homes for entry-level, move-up and luxury buyers across most of our markets. Our affordable entry-level homes have experienced very strong demand from homebuyers, as the entry-level segment of the new home market remains under-served, with low inventory levels relative to demand. More recently, we have also been introducing affordable homes in communities designed for active adult buyers seeking a low-maintenance lifestyle. We plan to continue to expand our product offerings across more of our operating markets.
We believe our business is well positioned because of our broad geographic footprint and diverse product offerings, our ample supply of finished lots, land and homes, our strong balance sheet and liquidity and our experienced personnel across our operating markets. We remain focused on growing our revenues and profitability, generating positive annual cash flows from operations and managing our product offerings, pricing, sales pace, and inventory levels to optimize the return on our inventory investments.
During the nine months ended June 30, 2018, our number of homes closed and home sales revenues increased 14% and 16%, respectively, compared to the prior year period. Our pre-tax income was $1.5 billion in the current year nine month period compared to $1.1 billion in the prior year period, and our pre-tax operating margin increased to 12.6% compared to 11.2% primarily as a result of an increase in our home sales gross margin. In the current environment, we are reducing sales incentives or raising prices in communities where we are achieving our targeted sales pace, while striving to ensure our product offerings remain affordable. As land and construction costs have generally continued to increase, we are leveraging our scale and relationships in an effort to control these increases.
Within our homebuilding land and lot portfolio, our lots controlled under option purchase contracts represent 56% of the lots owned and controlled at June 30, 2018 compared to 50% at September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017. The Forestar acquisition is advancing our strategy of increasing our access to optioned land and lot positions.
We believe that housing demand in our individual operating markets is tied closely to each market’s economy. Therefore, we expect that housing market conditions will vary across our markets. If the U.S. economy continues to improve, we expect to see growth in housing demand, concentrated in markets where job growth is occurring. The pace and sustainability of new home demand and our future results could be negatively affected by weakening economic conditions, decreases in the level of employment and housing demand, decreased home affordability, significant increases in mortgage interest rates or tightening of mortgage lending standards.

STRATEGY
Our operating strategy focuses on leveraging our financial and competitive position to increase the returns on our inventory investments and generate strong profitability and cash flows, while managing risk. This strategy includes the following initiatives:

• | Maintaining a strong cash balance and overall liquidity position and controlling our level of debt.

• | Allocating and actively managing our inventory investments across our operating markets to diversify our geographic risk.

• | Offering new home communities that appeal to a broad range of entry-level, move-up, active adult and luxury homebuyers based on consumer demand in each market.

• | Modifying product offerings, sales pace, home prices and sales incentives as necessary in each of our markets to meet consumer demand.

• | Delivering high quality homes to our customers and a positive experience both during and after the sale.

• | Managing our inventory of homes under construction relative to demand in each of our markets, including starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand and actively controlling the number of unsold, completed homes in inventory.

• | Investing in land and land development in desirable markets, while controlling the level of land and lots we own in each of our markets relative to the local new home demand.

• | Increasing the amount of land and finished lots controlled through option purchase contracts by expanding relationships with land developers across the country and growing our majority-owned Forestar land development operations.

• | Pursuing acquisitions of companies to enhance and improve the returns of our homebuilding and other operations.

• | Controlling the cost of goods purchased from both vendors and subcontractors.

• | Improving the efficiency of our land development, construction, sales and other key operational activities.

• | Controlling our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense infrastructure to match production levels.

We believe our operating strategy, which has produced positive results in recent years, will allow us to maintain and improve our financial and competitive position and balance sheet strength. However, we cannot provide any assurances that the initiatives listed above will continue to be successful, and we may need to adjust components of our strategy to meet future market conditions.

Net Sales Orders
The value of net sales orders increased 13% to $4.4 billion (14,650 homes) for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $3.9 billion (13,040 homes) in the prior year period, with increases in most of our regions. The value of net sales orders increased 14% to $12.3 billion (41,231 homes) for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 from $10.8 billion (36,272 homes) in the prior year period, with increases in all of our regions. The increases in the value of sales orders were due to increased volume.
The number of net sales orders increased 12% and 14% in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The increase in net sales orders reflects the continued improved market conditions in most of our markets. Our Houston market contributed the most to higher sales volume in our South Central region during the three month period and our Phoenix market contributed the most to higher sales volume in our Southwest region during the nine month period. Our sales order cancellation rate (cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders for the period) was 21% in both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, consistent with the prior year periods.
We believe our business is well positioned to continue to generate increased sales volume; however, our future sales volumes will depend on new home demand in each of our operating markets and our ability to successfully implement our operating strategies.

Sales Order Backlog
Sales order backlog represents homes under contract but not yet closed at the end of the period. Many of the contracts in our sales order backlog are subject to contingencies, including mortgage loan approval and buyers selling their existing homes, which can result in cancellations. A portion of the contracts in backlog will not result in closings due to cancellations.
In June 2018, we acquired the assets of Permian Homes, which included a $44.2 million sales order backlog of 159 homes. Permian Homes operates in Midland and Odessa, Texas. This asset purchase was not material to our results of operations or our financial condition.

Home Sales Revenue
Revenues from home sales increased 16% to $4.3 billion (14,114 homes closed) for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $3.7 billion (12,497 homes closed) in the prior year period. Revenues from home sales increased 16% to $11.1 billion (37,183 homes closed) for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 from $9.6 billion (32,586 homes closed) in the prior year period. The increase in home sales revenues reflects the continued improved market conditions in most of our markets.
The number of homes closed increased 13% and 14% in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. Our Chicago market contributed the most to higher closings volume in our Midwest region during the three month period and our Denver market contributed the most during the nine month period. Our Phoenix and Northern California markets contributed the most to higher closings volumes in our Southwest and West regions during both periods. The average selling price of homes closed increased 3% and 1% during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The increase in the three month period was driven primarily by the increased average selling price in the West region.

Home Sales Gross Profit
Gross profit from home sales increased 29% to $932.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 from $725.4 million in the prior year period and increased 210 basis points to 21.9% as a percentage of home sales revenues. The percentage increase resulted from improvements of 120 basis points due to the average selling price of our homes closed increasing by more than the average cost, 60 basis points from a decrease in warranty and construction defect expenses as a percentage of home sales revenues, 20 basis points from a decrease in the amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes and 10 basis points from a decrease in the amount of purchase accounting adjustments for recent acquisitions.
Gross profit from home sales increased 24% to $2.4 billion in the nine months ended June 30, 2018 from $1.9 billion in the prior year period and increased 140 basis points to 21.2% as a percentage of home sales revenues. The percentage increase resulted from improvements of 60 basis points due to the average selling price of our homes closed increasing by more than the average cost, 40 basis points from a decrease in warranty and construction defect expenses as a percentage of home sales revenues and 40 basis points from a decrease in the amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes.
We remain focused on managing the pricing, incentives and sales pace in each of our communities to optimize the returns on our inventory investments and adjust to local market conditions and new home demand. These actions could cause our gross profit margins to fluctuate in future periods.
Land Sales and Other Revenues
Land sales and other revenues from our homebuilding operations were $59.1 million and $109.2 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and $22.2 million and $56.9 million in the comparable periods of 2017. Land sales and other revenues during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 included $39.5 million from the sale of a parcel of land in Phoenix. We continually evaluate our land and lot supply, and fluctuations in revenues and profitability from land sales occur based on how we manage our inventory levels in various markets. We generally purchase land and lots with the intent to build and sell homes on them. However, some of the land that we purchase includes commercially zoned parcels that we may sell to commercial developers. We may also sell residential lots or land parcels to manage our supply or for other strategic reasons. As of June 30, 2018, we had $43.3 million of land held for sale that we expect to sell in the next twelve months.

Inventory and Land Option Charges
At June 30, 2018, we reviewed the performance and outlook for all of our communities and land inventories for indicators of potential impairment and performed detailed impairment evaluations and analyses when necessary. We performed detailed impairment evaluations of communities and land inventories with a combined carrying value of $65.3 million and recorded impairment charges of $3.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 to reduce the carrying value of an impaired community to fair value. During the nine months ended June 30, 2018, impairment charges totaled $8.3 million. There were $1.0 million and $10.4 million of impairment charges recorded in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
As we manage our inventory investments across our operating markets to optimize returns and cash flows, we may modify our pricing and incentives, construction and development plans or land sale strategies in individual active communities and land held for development, which could result in the affected communities being evaluated for potential impairment. Also, if housing or economic conditions weaken in specific markets in which we operate, or if conditions weaken in the broader economy or homebuilding industry, we may be required to evaluate additional communities for potential impairment. These evaluations could result in additional impairment charges.
During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, we wrote off $5.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, of earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to land option contracts that we have terminated or expect to terminate. Inventory and land option charges for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 also include a charge of $24.5 million related to the settlement of an outstanding dispute associated with a land transaction. Earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 were $4.4 million and $9.5 million, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expense
SG&A expense from homebuilding activities increased 13% to $349.1 million and 12% to $976.6 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, from $309.5 million and $872.4 million in the prior year periods. As a percentage of homebuilding revenues, SG&A expense decreased 30 basis points to 8.1% and 8.7% in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, from 8.4% and 9.0% in the prior year periods.
Employee compensation and related costs represented 73% and 72% of SG&A costs in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 73% and 71% in the prior year periods. These costs increased 12% to $254.4 million and 14% to $702.0 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, due to increases in the number of employees and the amount of incentive compensation as compared to the prior year periods. Our homebuilding operations employed 6,334 and 5,870 employees at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
We attempt to control our SG&A costs while ensuring that our infrastructure adequately supports our operations; however, we cannot make assurances that we will be able to maintain or improve upon the current SG&A expense as a percentage of revenues.
Interest Incurred
We capitalize interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. Interest incurred by our homebuilding operations decreased 11% to $26.7 million and $83.6 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. These decreases were primarily due to lower average interest rates on our outstanding debt during the periods. Interest charged to cost of sales was 1.0% and 1.1% of total cost of sales (excluding inventory and land option charges) in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 1.3% and 1.4% in the prior year periods.

Other Income
Other income, net of other expenses, included in our homebuilding operations was $1.3 million and $4.6 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $1.3 million and $7.8 million in the prior year periods. Other income consists of interest income, rental income and various other types of ancillary income, gains, expenses and losses not directly associated with sales of homes, land and lots. The activities that result in this ancillary income or expense are not significant, either individually or in the aggregate.
Business Acquisition
On October 5, 2017, we acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar for $558.3 million in cash, pursuant to the terms of the June 2017 merger agreement. Forestar was and continues to be a publicly traded residential and real estate development company listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “FOR,” with operations currently in 20 markets and 11 states. The transaction costs incurred by D.R. Horton related to this acquisition totaled $7.2 million, of which $5.3 million was incurred during the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and expensed to selling, general and administrative expense.
On October 6, 2017, we entered into a shared services agreement with Forestar whereby we provide Forestar with certain administrative, compliance, operational and procurement services. We began providing these services to Forestar in January 2018 and have charged Forestar $0.6 million for these services through June 30, 2018.
Our alignment with Forestar advances our strategy of increasing our access to optioned land and lot positions to enhance operational efficiency and returns. At June 30, 2018, Forestar owned approximately 14,400 lots and controlled an additional 4,700 lots through option contracts. Of Forestar’s total 19,100 lots owned and controlled, 11,100 lots were under contract or subject to a right of first offer with our homebuilding segment. Both companies are continuing to identify land development opportunities to expand Forestar’s platform, and we plan to acquire finished lots from Forestar in accordance with the master supply agreement between the two companies. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, Forestar reimbursed us $2.9 million and $14.7 million, respectively, for previously paid earnest money and $4.6 million and $10.5 million, respectively, for pre-acquisition and other due diligence costs related to land purchase contracts whereby we assigned our rights under contract to Forestar. As the controlling shareholder of Forestar, we have significant influence in guiding the strategic direction and driving the growth and operational execution necessary to increase the future value potential of Forestar.

(1) | Expenses maintained at the corporate level consist primarily of interest and property taxes, which are capitalized and amortized to cost of sales or expensed directly, and the expenses related to operating our corporate office. The amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes is allocated to each segment based on the segment’s cost of sales, while expenses associated with the corporate office are allocated to each segment based on the segment’s inventory balances.

East Region — Homebuilding revenues increased 10% and 17% in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in the number of homes closed in our Carolina markets.

The region’s current year nine month period results include a $24.5 million inventory and land option charge related to the settlement of an outstanding dispute associated with a land transaction and a $13.4 million gain on the sale of multi-family rental units in one community. Home sales gross profit percentage increased by 120 and 40 basis points in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, due to the average selling price of homes increasing while the average cost decreased. As a percentage of homebuilding revenues, SG&A expenses increased by 10 basis points in the three month period and were unchanged in the nine month period compared to the prior year periods.
South Central Region — Homebuilding revenues increased 9% in both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in the number of homes closed in our Austin, Dallas and Fort Worth markets. The region generated pre-tax income of $143.3 million and $365.2 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $119.1 million and $321.4 million in the prior year periods. Home sales gross profit percentage increased by 140 and 50 basis points in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, due to the average cost of homes decreasing by more than the average selling price.

Southwest Region — Homebuilding revenues increased 44% and 41% in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in the number of homes closed in our Phoenix market. The region generated pre-tax income of $32.3 million and $69.1 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $14.8 million and $26.0 million in the prior year periods. Home sales gross profit percentage increased by 90 basis points in the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the prior year period due to an increase in the average selling price of homes and a decrease in the average cost of homes, which was partially offset by increased warranty and construction defect costs. Homes sales gross profit percentage increased by 420 basis points in the nine months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the prior year period due to the average cost of homes decreasing by more than the average selling price and decreased warranty and construction defect costs. As a percentage of homebuilding revenues, SG&A expenses decreased by 150 and 120 basis points in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the increase in homebuilding revenues.

HOMEBUILDING INVENTORIES, LAND AND LOT POSITION AND HOMES IN INVENTORY
We routinely enter into land/lot option contracts to purchase land or developed residential lots at predetermined prices on a defined schedule commensurate with planned development or anticipated new home demand. We also purchase undeveloped land that generally is vested with the rights to begin development or construction work, and we plan and coordinate the development of our land into residential lots for use in our homebuilding business. We manage our inventory of owned land and lots and homes under construction relative to demand in each of our markets, including starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand and actively controlling the number of unsold, completed homes in inventory.
Our homebuilding segment’s inventories at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017 are summarized as follows:

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, Forestar sold 297 and 856 single-family lots, respectively, from its owned projects and consolidated ventures at average sales prices of $77,900 and $75,300. Forestar sold 141 lots to D.R. Horton for $6.8 million and 324 lots to D.R. Horton for $15.3 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Also, Forestar sold 79 residential tract acres to D.R. Horton for $2.0 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities for the nine month period primarily relates to the sale of a multi-family joint venture project in Nashville, Tennessee.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine month period include $6.3 million of severance and change of control charges for Forestar’s executive officers that were triggered shortly after the acquisition date. The severance and change of control amount of $2.6 million was payable to Forestar’s former Chief Executive Officer upon his resignation from Forestar on December 28, 2017. The remaining severance and change of control amounts are payable upon termination or resignation of each of the executives.
At June 30, 2018, Forestar owned directly or controlled through land and lot option purchase contracts approximately 19,100 residential lots, of which approximately 1,200 are fully developed. Approximately 11,100 of these lots are under contract to sell to D.R. Horton or subject to a right of first offer under the master supply agreement with D.R. Horton. Approximately 400 of these lots are under contract to sell to other builders.

Mortgage Loan Activity
The volume of loans originated by our mortgage operations is directly related to the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations. In the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, the volume of first-lien loans originated or brokered by DHI Mortgage for our homebuyers increased 15% primarily as a result of increases in the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations of 13% and 14%, respectively. The percentage of homes closed for which DHI Mortgage handled the homebuyers’ financing was 56% in both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, essentially unchanged from the prior year periods.
Homes closed by our homebuilding operations constituted 97% of DHI Mortgage loan originations in both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 compared to 95% in both prior year periods. These percentages reflect DHI Mortgage’s consistent focus on the captive business provided by our homebuilding operations.
The number of loans sold increased 15% and 9% in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. Virtually all of the mortgage loans held for sale on June 30, 2018 were eligible for sale to the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) or the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae). Approximately 93% of the mortgage loans sold by DHI Mortgage during the nine months ended June 30, 2018 were sold to four major financial entities, one of which purchased 38% of the total loans sold.
Financial Services Revenues and Expenses
Revenues from our financial services operations increased 6% to $97.1 million and $273.1 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, from $91.9 million and $256.9 million in the prior year periods, while the number of loan originations increased 12% over those same periods. Revenues increased at a lower rate than origination volume primarily due to lower pricing and resulting net gains on loan origination sales due to competitive pressures in the mortgage market. The reduction in revenues was partially offset by increased revenue from title operations.
General and administrative (G&A) expense related to our financial services operations increased 14% to $71.1 million and $199.6 million in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, from $62.1 million and $175.0 million in the prior year periods. The increases were primarily due to increases in employee related costs due to increased volume. Our financial services operations employed 1,907 and 1,745 employees at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
As a percentage of financial services revenues, G&A expense was 73.2% and 73.1% in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 67.6% and 68.1% in the prior year periods. The increases were primarily due to lower pricing and resulting net gains on loan origination sales resulting in reduced revenue relative to origination volume. Fluctuations in financial services G&A expense as a percentage of revenues can be expected to occur, as some components of revenue may fluctuate differently than loan volumes, and some expenses are not directly related to mortgage loan volume or to changes in the amount of revenue earned.
Other income, net of other expense, included in our financial services operations consists primarily of the interest income of our mortgage subsidiary.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSOLIDATED
Income before Income Taxes
Pre-tax income for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 was $616.2 million and $1.5 billion, respectively, compared to $444.5 million and $1.1 billion for the prior year periods. The increase in our operating income is primarily due to higher revenues from increased home closings and an increase in home sales gross margin.
Income Taxes
Our income tax expense for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 was $162.5 million and $458.9 million, respectively, compared to $155.5 million and $391.4 million in the prior year periods. Our effective tax rate was 26.4% and 31.6% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to 35.0% and 35.1% in the prior year periods. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 reflect the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act), which was enacted into law on December 22, 2017, an excess tax benefit related to stock-based compensation and the enactment of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, which retroactively extended the expiration date of the federal energy efficient home credit from December 31, 2016 until December 31, 2017. The effective tax rates for all periods include an expense for state income taxes, reduced by tax benefits for the domestic production activities deduction.
The Tax Act reduced the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% for all corporations effective January 1, 2018. For fiscal year companies, the change in law requires the application of a blended tax rate in the year of change, which for us is 24.5% for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. Thereafter, the applicable statutory tax rate is 21%. ASC 740 requires all companies to reflect the effects of the new law in the period in which the law was enacted. Accordingly, we reduced the statutory tax rate that applied to our year-to-date earnings from 35% to 24.5%. In addition, we remeasured our deferred tax assets and liabilities for the tax law change, which resulted in additional income tax expense of $108.7 million recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The initial remeasurement was our best estimate based on the information available at the time. Adjustments to deferred tax expense will continue to be recognized to the extent the actual timing of future deferred tax reversals and originations differ from original estimates and will be recorded in subsequent quarters until the filing of our federal tax return. Any required adjustment will be reflected as a discrete expense or benefit in the quarter that it is identified, as allowed by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, no significant adjustments to the remeasurement of our deferred tax accounts were recognized. No other tax law changes as a result of the Tax Act are expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements. Our deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $233.9 million at June 30, 2018 compared to $376.2 million at September 30, 2017. Excluding the $108.7 million charge to reduce our deferred tax assets and liabilities, we expect our effective tax rate for fiscal 2018 to be approximately 25%.
On October 5, 2017, we acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar. We recorded goodwill of $29.2 million, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets of $20.4 million and a valuation allowance of $20.1 million were recorded as a result of the acquisition. At the acquisition date, we considered whether it was more likely than not that some portion or all of Forestar’s deferred tax assets would not be realized. In making such judgment, we considered all available positive and negative evidence. We determined that Forestar’s cumulative losses in recent years were a significant piece of negative evidence that outweighed the positive evidence, and a valuation allowance was recorded.
In addition to the valuation allowance relating to Forestar’s deferred tax assets, we have a valuation allowance related to state deferred tax assets for net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards. The valuation allowance was recorded because it is more likely than not that a portion of our state NOL carryforwards will not be realized because some state NOL carryforward periods are too brief to realize the related deferred tax asset. Our total valuation allowance was $29.3 million at June 30, 2018 and $11.2 million at September 30, 2017. We will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to our remaining state NOL carryforwards and Forestar’s deferred tax assets. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact our effective tax rate.
The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of our deferred tax assets.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
We have historically funded our operations with cash flows from operating activities, borrowings under bank credit facilities and the issuance of new debt securities. Our current levels of cash, borrowing capacity and balance sheet leverage provide us with the operational flexibility to adjust to changes in market conditions and allow us to increase our investments in homes, finished lots, land and land development to expand our operations and grow our profitability.
At June 30, 2018, our ratio of debt to total capital (notes payable divided by stockholders’ equity plus notes payable) was 26.5% compared to 27.0% at September 30, 2017 and 28.2% at June 30, 2017. Our ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital (homebuilding notes payable divided by stockholders’ equity plus homebuilding notes payable) was 22.2% compared to 24.0% at September 30, 2017 and 24.8% at June 30, 2017. Over the long term, we intend to maintain our ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital below 35%, and we expect it to remain significantly lower than 35% throughout fiscal 2018 and 2019. We believe that the ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital is useful in understanding the leverage employed in our homebuilding operations and comparing our capital structure with other homebuilders. We exclude the debt of Forestar and our financial services business because they are separately capitalized and not guaranteed by our parent company or any of our homebuilding entities.
We regularly assess our projected capital requirements to fund growth in our business, repay debt obligations, and support other general corporate and operational needs, and we regularly evaluate our opportunities to raise additional capital. We have an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the SEC in August 2015, registering debt and equity securities which we may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined. We anticipate filing a new universal shelf registration statement in August 2018. As market conditions permit, we may issue new debt or equity securities through the public capital markets or obtain additional bank financing to fund our projected capital requirements or provide additional liquidity. We believe that our existing cash resources, revolving credit facility, mortgage repurchase facility and ability to access the capital markets will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our working capital needs and debt obligations.
Capital Resources - Homebuilding
Cash and Cash Equivalents — At June 30, 2018, cash and cash equivalents of our homebuilding segment totaled $748.0 million.
Bank Credit Facility — We have a $1.275 billion senior unsecured homebuilding revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $1.9 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to approximately 50% of the revolving credit commitment. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be based on either the Prime Rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin, as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility. The maturity date of the facility is September 25, 2022. Borrowings and repayments under the facility totaled $1.8 billion each during the nine months ended June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018, there were no borrowings outstanding and $87.1 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility, resulting in available capacity of $1.2 billion.
Our revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on our operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and a borrowing base restriction if our ratio of debt to tangible net worth exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility imposes restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At June 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of our homebuilding revolving credit facility.

Table of Contents
Secured Letter of Credit Agreement — We have a secured letter of credit agreement which requires us to deposit cash, in an amount approximating the balance of letters of credit outstanding, as collateral with the issuing bank. The amount of cash restricted for letters of credit issued under this agreement totaled $1.4 million and $2.5 million at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively, and is included in restricted cash in our consolidated balance sheets.
Public Unsecured Debt — In December 2017, we issued $400 million principal amount of 2.55% senior notes due December 1, 2020, with interest payable semi-annually. The annual effective interest rate of these notes after giving effect to the amortization of financing costs is 2.8%. In December 2017, we redeemed $400 million principal amount of our 3.625% senior notes due February 2018. The senior notes were redeemed at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest. The indenture governing our senior notes imposes restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At June 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all of the limitations and restrictions associated with our public debt obligations.
Debt and Equity Repurchase Authorizations — Effective August 1, 2017, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of debt securities and $200 million of our common stock effective through July 31, 2018. The full amount of the debt repurchase authorization was remaining at June 30, 2018. Repurchases of common stock through June 30, 2018 reduced the stock repurchase authorization to $125.1 million. In July 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of debt securities and $400 million of our common stock effective through September 30, 2019, which replaced the previous authorizations.
Capital Resources - Forestar
At June 30, 2018, Forestar had cash and cash equivalents of $367.7 million, which is expected to be sufficient to fund Forestar’s growth objectives and working capital needs in the short-term. The liquidity of Forestar and its ability to achieve longer term growth objectives will depend on Forestar’s ability to generate cash from operations and to obtain financing in sufficient capacities. Forestar is currently pursuing a new revolving credit facility and anticipates filing a shelf registration statement with the SEC to register debt and equity securities, which may be issued from time to time in amounts to be determined. As market conditions permit, Forestar may issue new debt or equity securities through the public capital markets or obtain additional bank financing to provide capital for future growth and additional liquidity.
Letter of Credit Facility — On October 5, 2017, Forestar terminated its $50 million senior credit facility. The $50 million senior credit facility included a $50 million sublimit for letters of credit. Also on October 5, 2017, Forestar entered into a new agreement providing for a $30 million secured standby letter of credit facility, secured by $40 million in cash, which is included in restricted cash in our consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2018, letters of credit outstanding under the new facility totaled $21.5 million.
Public Unsecured Debt — On October 5, 2017, Forestar had $120 million principal amount of 3.75% convertible senior notes due 2020. The completion of the acquisition resulted in a fundamental change in the notes as described in the related note indentures and as a result, Forestar offered to purchase all or any part of every holder’s convertible senior notes for a price in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. As a result, Forestar purchased $1.1 million of the aggregate principal amount of the notes. Also, prior to the acquisition, upon conversion of the notes each holder was entitled to receive 40.8351 shares of former Forestar common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes surrendered for conversion. In connection with the acquisition, the conversion ratio was adjusted in accordance with the indenture governing the convertible notes such that each holder is now entitled to receive $579.77062 in cash and 8.17192 shares of new Forestar common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes surrendered for conversion. The convertible senior notes are not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee our homebuilding debt.

Capital Resources - Financial Services
Cash and Cash Equivalents — At June 30, 2018, cash and cash equivalents of our financial services operations totaled $43.1 million.
Mortgage Repurchase Facility — Our mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has a mortgage repurchase facility that is accounted for as a secured financing. The mortgage repurchase facility provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties against the transfer of funds by the counterparties, thereby becoming purchased loans. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 60 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. The total capacity of the facility is $600 million; however, the capacity increases, without requiring additional commitments, to $725 million for approximately 30 days at each quarter end and to $800 million for approximately 45 days at fiscal year end. The capacity of the facility can also be increased to $1.0 billion subject to the availability of additional commitments. The maturity date of the facility is February 22, 2019.
As of June 30, 2018, $639.4 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $619.8 million were pledged under the mortgage repurchase facility. As a result of advance paydowns totaling $93.5 million, DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $526.3 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at June 30, 2018 at a 3.9% annual interest rate.
The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee our homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported to the lenders monthly. At June 30, 2018, DHI Mortgage was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility.
In the past, DHI Mortgage has been able to renew or extend its mortgage credit facility at a sufficient capacity and on satisfactory terms prior to its maturity and obtain temporary additional commitments through amendments to the credit agreement during periods of higher than normal volumes of mortgages held for sale. The liquidity of our financial services business depends upon its continued ability to renew and extend the mortgage repurchase facility or to obtain other additional financing in sufficient capacities.
Operating Cash Flow Activities
In the nine months ended June 30, 2018, cash provided by operating activities was $306.5 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $185.7 million in the prior year period. Cash provided by operating activities in the current year period consisted of $565.2 million of cash provided by our homebuilding segment, partially offset by $227.3 million of cash used in our Forestar segment, $27.0 million of cash used in our financial services segment and $4.4 million of cash used in our other business activities. We used $590.6 million of cash to increase our construction in progress and finished home inventory in our homebuilding segment compared to $870.9 million in the prior year period. In both periods, the expenditures were made to support the current period increase in sales and closing volumes, as well as the expected increase in future periods. Cash used to increase residential land and lots inventory in the current year period to fund future growth was $100.5 million in our homebuilding segment and $259.3 million in our Forestar segment. The most significant source of cash provided by operating activities in both periods was net income in our homebuilding segment.

Investing Cash Flow Activities
In the nine months ended June 30, 2018, net cash used in investing activities was $34.7 million compared to $121.0 million in the prior year period. We paid $558.3 million during the current year period to purchase 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar, which had $401.9 million of cash on the acquisition date. We used $110.1 million and $103.5 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, to purchase and construct property and equipment, including rental properties, model home furniture, office buildings and office and technology equipment to support our operations. Of the expenditures for property and equipment in the current year period, $56.1 million relates to the development and construction of multi-family rental properties. Proceeds from the sale of assets in the current year period included $228.6 million primarily from the strategic sale of assets by our Forestar segment. Additionally, proceeds of $24.8 million resulted from the sale of multi-family rental units constructed by our homebuilding operations in one community in our Southeast region.
Financing Cash Flow Activities
We expect the short-term financing needs of our operations will be funded with existing cash, cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities. Long-term financing needs for the growth of our operations have historically been funded with the issuance of senior unsecured debt securities through the public capital markets.
During the nine months ended June 30, 2018, net cash used in financing activities was $101.4 million, consisting primarily of note repayments that were largely offset by note proceeds, payments of cash dividends and repurchases of common stock. Note repayments of $2.2 billion included repayments of amounts drawn on our revolving credit facility of $1.8 billion and our early redemption of the $400 million principal amount of our 3.625% senior notes due February 2018. Proceeds from notes payable of $2.2 billion included draws of $1.8 billion on the revolving credit facility and our issuance of $400 million principal amount of 2.55% senior notes due December 1, 2020. We also used cash to repurchase 1,608,537 shares of our common stock for $74.9 million during the current year period. During the nine months ended June 30, 2017, net cash used in financing activities was $484.1 million, consisting primarily of note repayments, payments of cash dividends and repurchases of common stock, partially offset by note proceeds.
During the three months ended June 30, 2018, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 per common share, which was paid on May 25, 2018 to stockholders of record on May 11, 2018. In July 2018, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 per common share, payable on August 22, 2018 to stockholders of record on August 8, 2018. Cash dividends of $0.10 per common share were approved and paid in each quarter of fiscal 2017. The declaration of future cash dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our future earnings, cash flows, capital requirements, financial condition and general business conditions.

Table of Contents
CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS, COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Our primary contractual cash obligations are payments under our debt agreements and lease payments under operating leases. We expect to fund our contractual obligations in the ordinary course of business through a combination of our existing cash resources, cash flows generated from profits, our credit facilities or other bank financing, and the issuance of new debt or equity securities through the public capital markets as market conditions may permit.
At June 30, 2018, we had outstanding letters of credit of $110.0 million and surety bonds of $1.3 billion, issued by third parties to secure performance under various contracts. We expect that our performance obligations secured by these letters of credit and bonds will generally be completed in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with the applicable contractual terms. When we complete our performance obligations, the related letters of credit and bonds are generally released shortly thereafter, leaving us with no continuing obligations. We have no material third-party guarantees.
Our mortgage subsidiary enters into various commitments related to the lending activities of our mortgage operations. Further discussion of these commitments is provided in Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” under Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
We enter into land and lot option purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. Lot option contracts enable us to control significant lot positions with limited capital investment and substantially reduce the risks associated with land ownership and development. Among our homebuilding land and lot option purchase contracts at June 30, 2018, there were a limited number of contracts, representing $74.8 million of remaining purchase price, subject to specific performance provisions which may require us to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their contractual obligations. Of this amount, $34.7 million related to a contract between our homebuilding and Forestar segments. Further information about our land option contracts is provided in the “Homebuilding Inventories, Land and Lot Position and Homes in Inventory” section included herein.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
As disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, inventories and cost of sales, business acquisitions, goodwill, warranty claims, legal claims and insurance, income taxes, stock-based compensation and fair value measurements. Since September 30, 2017, there have been no significant changes to those critical accounting policies.
As disclosed in our critical accounting policies in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, our reserves for construction defect claims include the estimated costs of both known claims and anticipated future claims. At both June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, we had reserves for approximately 140 pending construction defect claims, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the nine months ended June 30, 2018, we established reserves for approximately 70 new construction defect claims and resolved 70 construction defect claims for a total cost of $28.1 million. At both June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, we had reserves for approximately 140 pending construction defect claims, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the nine months ended June 30, 2017, we established reserves for approximately 60 new construction defect claims and resolved 60 construction defect claims for a total cost of $36.1 million.
SEASONALITY
Although significant changes in market conditions have impacted our seasonal patterns in the past and could do so again in the future, we generally close more homes and generate greater revenues and operating income in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. The seasonal nature of our business can also cause significant variations in our working capital requirements in both our homebuilding and financial services operations. As a result of seasonal activity, our quarterly results of operations and financial position at the end of a particular fiscal quarter are not necessarily representative of the balance of our fiscal year.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. We monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates and utilize both fixed and variable rate debt. For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value of the debt instrument, but may affect our future earnings and cash flows. Except in very limited circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value would not have a significant impact on our cash flows related to our fixed-rate debt until such time as we are required to refinance, repurchase or repay such debt.
We are exposed to interest rate risk associated with our mortgage loan origination services. We manage interest rate risk through the use of forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), which are referred to as “hedging instruments” in the following discussion. We do not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
Interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and who meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. Typically, the IRLCs have a duration of less than six months. Some IRLCs are committed immediately to a specific purchaser through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments, while other IRLCs are funded prior to being committed to third-party purchasers. The hedging instruments related to IRLCs are classified and accounted for as derivative instruments in an economic hedge, with gains and losses recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Hedging instruments related to funded, uncommitted loans are accounted for at fair value, with changes recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations, along with changes in the fair value of the funded, uncommitted loans. The fair value change related to the hedging instruments generally offsets the fair value change in the uncommitted loans. The net fair value change, which for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was not significant, is recognized in current earnings. At June 30, 2018, hedging instruments used to mitigate interest rate risk related to uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale and uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of $1.0 billion. Uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of approximately $657.2 million and uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale totaled a notional amount of approximately $428.6 million at June 30, 2018.
The following table sets forth principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, effective weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of June 30, 2018. Because the mortgage repurchase facility is effectively secured by certain mortgage loans held for sale that are typically sold within 60 days, its outstanding balance is included in the most current period presented. The interest rate for our variable rate debt represents the weighted average interest rate in effect at June 30, 2018.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2018 were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files, furnishes, submits or otherwise provides the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, in such a manner as to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are involved in lawsuits and other contingencies in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the liabilities arising from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, to the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds our estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matter, we could incur additional charges that could be significant.
In May and July of 2014, we received Notices of Violation from the United States Environmental Protection Agency related to stormwater compliance at certain of our sites in the Southeast. This matter could potentially result in monetary sanctions to the Company; however, we do not believe it is reasonably possible that this matter would result in a loss that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In fiscal 2013, our mortgage subsidiary was subpoenaed by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) regarding the adequacy of certain underwriting and quality control processes related to Federal Housing Administration loans originated and sold in prior years. We have provided information related to these loans and our processes to the DOJ, and communications are ongoing. The DOJ has to date not asserted any formal claim amount, penalty or fine.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
We may repurchase shares of our common stock from time to time pursuant to our common stock repurchase authorization. The following table sets forth information concerning our common stock repurchases during the three months ended June 30, 2018. All share repurchases were made in accordance with the safe harbor provisions of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
