Basis of Presentation [Abstract] |
Basis of Accounting [Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “financial statements”) of M/I Homes, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year, including as a result of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic which has disrupted, and is expected to continue to disrupt, our business. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary for a fair presentation of financial results for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during that period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and have a significant impact on the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows. With regard to the Company, estimates and assumptions are inherent in calculations relating to valuation of inventory and investment in unconsolidated joint ventures, property and equipment depreciation, valuation of derivative financial instruments, accounts payable on inventory, accruals for costs to complete inventory, accruals for warranty claims, accruals for self-insured general liability claims, litigation, accruals for health care and workers’ compensation, accruals for guaranteed or indemnified loans, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes, and contingencies. Items that could have a significant impact on these estimates and assumptions include the risks and uncertainties listed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of our 2019 Form 10-K and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the same may be updated from time to time in our subsequent filings with the SEC. Reclassifications As a result of the Company's change in reportable segments during the second quarter of 2019, the Company recast certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to conform with the new presentation (see Note 11). These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's results of operations. Subsequent Events Beginning in the latter portion of the first quarter of 2020, the United States was severely impacted by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. While the response to the COVID-19 outbreak continues to rapidly evolve, it has led to quarantines, “stay-at-home” orders, social distancing guidelines and similar mandates across the country that have significantly disrupted activities in large segments of the economy. Because all of the states in which we operate (other than Michigan) recognize housing constructions and mortgage services as essential businesses, most of our communities remain open for continued construction of homes and sales by appointment. Although we continue to build and sell homes in these markets, traffic and sales have slowed significantly, home cancellations have increased significantly and our construction and home delivery cycles have been negatively impacted as well. We expect that the COVID-19 pandemic will negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows in the second quarter of 2020 and subsequent reporting periods. However, the future impacts of COVID-19 on our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows are contingent upon the duration and severity of the outbreak, as well as the extent of the associated decline in economic activity and timing of the subsequent recovery. Further discussion of the potential impacts on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows from the COVID-19 pandemic is provided below under Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors.” Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 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 to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2020. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (“ASU 2018-19”) in November 2018, ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments (“ASU 2019-04”), in April 2019, and ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) Targeted Transition Relief (“ASU 2019-05”) in May 2019. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU 2016-13. Instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the credit losses standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-13. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and removes the requirement to disclose (1) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, (2) the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and (3) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 requires disclosure of changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For all entities, ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Our adoption of ASU 2018-13 on January 1, 2020 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 is intended to provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the US GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance was effective beginning March 12, 2020 and can be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Impact of New Accounting Standards In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments (“ASU 2020-03”). ASU 2020-03 improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics, including the current expected credit losses (CECL) standard issued in 2016 (described above). ASU 2020-03 includes seven different issues that describe the areas of improvement and the related amendments to GAAP that are intended to make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amendments have different effective dates. We are currently evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance, but do not expect adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Significant Accounting Policies We believe that there have been no significant changes to our significant accounting policies during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as compared to those disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K.
