TRI POINTE GROUP, INC. REPORTS 2019 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
IRVINE, CALIFORNIA, July 25, 2019 / Business Wire / TRI Pointe Group, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE:TPH) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019.
“TRI Pointe Group posted solid results for the second quarter of 2019, generating net income of $26.3 million or $0.18 per diluted share,” said TRI Pointe Group Chief Executive Officer Doug Bauer. “Our team members did an excellent job executing this quarter, as we met or exceeded our stated guidance for deliveries and margins for the quarter and grew our average community count by 12% year-over-year. Our orders for the quarter were up 11% year-over-year with a strong sales pace of 3.4 homes per community per month. While the recent decline in interest rates likely aided our sales efforts, we believe the quality of our home offerings and our execution of our 12 point sales and marketing program provided the tools for success during the quarter.”
Mr. Bauer continued, “We continue to focus on growing our operations through the build-out of our long-term California assets and the expansion of our presence in a number of markets around the country. We believe the investments we are making today will result in a more diverse and profitable business in the coming years.”
Mr. Bauer concluded, “Thanks to our strong results in the first half of 2019, a healthy backlog at quarter-end and a double digit increase to our active community count, TRI Pointe Group is well positioned to deliver on the full year guidance we issued at the beginning of the year. These positives, coupled with our strong balance sheet, have me very optimistic about the future of our company.”

Second Quarter 2019 Operating Results
Net income was $26.3 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2019, compared to net income of $63.7 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2018.
Home sales revenue decreased $76.7 million, or 10%, to $692.1 million for the second quarter of 2019, as compared to $768.8 million for the second quarter of 2018.  The decrease was primarily attributable to a 7% decrease in new home deliveries to 1,125, compared to 1,215 in the second quarter of 2018, and a 3% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered to $615,000, compared to $633,000 in the second quarter of 2018.
Homebuilding gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2019 decreased to 17.0%, compared to 21.4% for the second quarter of 2018. The decrease in homebuilding gross margin was due to a lower mix of deliveries from certain long-dated California communities, which produce gross margins above the Company average, as well as the impact of increased incentives in the second half of 2018 on inventory homes that delivered in the first half of 2019. Excluding interest and impairments and lot option abandonments in cost of home sales, adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 19.6%* for the second quarter of 2019, compared to 24.0%* for the second quarter of 2018.  
Sales and marketing and general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense for the second quarter of 2019 increased to 12.1% of home sales revenue as compared to 10.7% for the second quarter of 2018, primarily the result of lower operating leverage on the fixed components of SG&A as a result of the 10% decrease in home sales revenue and higher overhead costs as a result of our expansion efforts into the Charlotte, Raleigh, Sacramento and Dallas–Fort Worth markets.
New home orders increased 11% to 1,491 homes for the second quarter of 2019, as compared to 1,343 homes for the same period in 2018.  Average selling communities increased 12% to 146.0 for the second quarter of 2019 compared to 130.8 for the second quarter of 2018. The Company’s overall absorption rate per average selling community remained flat for the second quarter of 2019 at 10.2 orders (3.4 monthly) compared to 10.3 orders (3.4 monthly) during the second quarter of 2018.  
The Company ended the quarter with 2,208 homes in backlog, representing approximately $1.4 billion. The average sales price of homes in backlog as of June 30, 2019 decreased $16,000, or 2%, to $652,000, compared to $668,000 as of June 30, 2018.  
“We continue to excel at selling homes with our emphasis on our premium lifestyle brand,” said President and Chief Operating Officer Tom Mitchell. “Our local teams have done an excellent job positioning our brands for success at a number of price points by creating unique and differentiated places to live. We feel that this attention to detail resonates with buyers, enhances our reputation in the market and sets us apart from the competition.”
* See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”
Outlook
For the third quarter of 2019, the Company expects to open 14 new communities and close out of 12 communities, which would result in 148 active selling communities as of September 30, 2019. In addition, the Company anticipates delivering 45% to 50% of its 2,208 homes in backlog as of June 30, 2019 at an average sales price of $620,000. The Company expects its homebuilding gross margin percentage to be in a range of 21.0% to 22.0% for the third quarter. The Company anticipates its SG&A expense as a percentage of homes sales revenue will be in a range of 12.0% to 12.5%. Lastly, the Company expects its effective tax rate to be in the range of 25% to 26%.
For the full year, the Company reiterates its previous guidance of delivering between 4,600 and 5,000 homes at an average sales price of $610,000 to $620,000. In addition, the Company expects homebuilding gross margin

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(unaudited)
In this press release, we utilize certain financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We present these measures because we believe they and similar measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating performance and financing structure. We also believe these measures facilitate the comparison of our operating performance and financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following tables reconcile homebuilding gross margin percentage, as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP, to the non-GAAP measure adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that leverage has on homebuilding gross margin and permits investors to make better comparisons with our competitors, who adjust gross margins in a similar fashion.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (continued)
(unaudited)
 
The following table reconciles the Company’s ratio of debt-to-capital to the non-GAAP ratio of net debt-to-net capital. We believe that the ratio of net debt-to-net capital is a relevant financial measure for management and investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of the Company’s ability to obtain financing.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (continued)
(unaudited)
 
The following table calculates the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciles those amounts to net income, as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP.  EBITDA means net income before (a) interest expense, (b) expensing of previously capitalized interest included in costs of home sales, (c) income taxes and (d) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA means EBITDA before (e) amortization of stock-based compensation and (f) impairments and lot option abandonments. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (or similarly titled measures) differently. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures of the Company’s ability to service debt and obtain financing.
