Matthew R. Zaist, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased with our financial results for the quarter with adjusted net income of $16.1 million, or $0.41 per diluted share. Our strong bottom line results were driven by our homebuilding gross margins, excluding the one-time inventory charge, of 16.5%,


and the profitability of our ancillary operations.” Mr. Zaist continued, “Income from our financial services segment was $3.7 million, above our expectations, as the team performed exceptionally well at fully integrating our wholly-owned mortgage platform. Additionally, we recorded our first multi-family apartment sale from our recently launched mixed-use redevelopment platform, which we closed on in the third quarter for a profit of $4.3 million.”

Operating Results

Home sales revenue for the third quarter of 2019 was $464.8 million, as compared to $533.5 million in the year-ago period, a decrease of 13%. The decrease was driven by a 6% decrease in the number of homes closed in 2019, as compared to the prior year period, as well as a decrease in ASP from $506,700 in the third quarter of 2018, to approximately $467,100 in 2019.

Net new home orders for the quarter were 940, a decrease of 6% from 1,001 in the third quarter of 2018. Our average community count decreased 2% to 114 averages sales location during the third quarter of 2019, compared to 116 during the third quarter of 2018. Overall, our monthly absorption rate for the quarter was 2.7 sales per community, compared to 2.9 sales per community in the third quarter of last year. Our monthly absorption pace during the quarter was 2.8 in July, 2.5 in August and 2.8 in September.

Adjusted gross margin percentage was 20.6% during the quarter, excluding capitalized interest and a one-time inventory charge of $6.6 million ($5.2 million, net of tax), related to costs associated with certain previously closed out projects.

Sales and marketing expense during the third quarter of 2019 was 5.4% of homebuilding revenue. This was consistent with the prior year quarter and reflected 10 basis points of sequential improvement from the second quarter. General and administrative expenses increased to 6.5% of homebuilding revenue, compared to 5.6% in the year-ago quarter. The increase in general and administrative expense percentage over the prior year is primarily due to lower revenue as our general and administrative dollars were consistent with the prior year.

Pre-tax income was $22.3 million and adjusted pre-tax income was $30.8 million. Provision for income tax was $4.8 million, for an effective tax rate of 21.5%, compared to a provision of $9.0 million, or 22.0%, in the prior year. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $8.0 million during the third quarter, as compared to $5.3 million in the prior year.


Financial Services

In July 2019, we announced the formation of ClosingMark Financial Group, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary operating a full suite of financial services offerings, including title agency, settlement, and mortgage services for our homebuyers and other retail customers, which operates as ClosingMark Home Loans. During the third quarter, we completed the integration of our previous mortgage joint venture operations and loan pipeline into this platform under the ClosingMark Home Loans brand.

During the quarter, our wholly-owned financial services operations recorded income of $3.4 million and our unconsolidated mortgage joint ventures recorded income of $0.3 million. Going forward, we have ceased further business operations out of our unconsolidated mortgage joint ventures and would expect to benefit from improved financial performance out of the financial services segment for the fourth quarter based on operating efficiencies and earnings capture on an exclusively wholly-owned basis.

Senior Notes Issuance

On July 9, 2019, we closed on a $300 million Senior Notes offering at a coupon of 6.625%. The proceeds from the offering were used to redeem the majority of the $350 million 7% Senior Notes due 2022 on August 15, 2019. In conjunction with the transaction, the company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt, net, of $1.4 million.

Balance Sheet Update

At quarter end, cash and cash equivalents totaled $42.1 million, owned real estate inventories totaled $2.3 billion, total assets were $3.0 billion and total equity was $1.0 billion. Total debt to book capitalization was 57.7%, and net debt to net book capitalization was 56.9% at September 30, 2019, compared to 56.6% and 55.9% at December 31, 2018, respectively.

The Company is postponing its previously scheduled conference call, which was scheduled for today, Wednesday, November 6, 2019 due to a forthcoming announcement. It now expects to hold the conference call to discuss its third quarter 2019 results on a later date to be announced.

Adjusted homebuilding gross margin is a financial measure that is not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. It is used by management in evaluating operating performance and in making strategic decisions regarding sales pricing, construction and development pace, product mix and other operating decisions. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that interest and purchase accounting adjustments have on homebuilding gross margin and allows investors to make better comparisons with our competitors.

Adjusted EBITDA means net income available to common stockholders plus (i) provision for income taxes, (ii) interest expense, (iii) amortization of capitalized interest included in cost of sales, (iv) stock based compensation, (v) depreciation and amortization, (vi) non-cash purchase accounting adjustments, (vii) cash distributions of income from unconsolidated joint ventures, (viii) equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures, (ix) transaction expenses, and (x) (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because management believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to the Company’s investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because adjusted EBITDA is a widely utilized indicator of a company’s operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net income, cash flows from operating activities and other consolidated income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders to adjusted EBITDA is provided in the following table:
