RYLAND FOURTH-QUARTER RESULTS
RESULTS FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER OF 2014
For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net income of $71.7 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, compared to $72.2 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, for the same period in 2013. The decrease in net income was due to a $25.9 million tax benefit related to a reversal of the Companys deferred tax asset valuation allowance during the fourth quarter of 2013, which also restored income tax expense in 2014.
The homebuilding segments reported pretax earnings of $116.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to $80.1 million for the same period in 2013. This increase in pretax earnings was primarily due to a rise in revenues; higher housing gross profit margin; and a reduced selling, general and administrative expense ratio.
Homebuilding revenues increased 24.7 percent to $853.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 from $685.0 million for the same period in 2013. This rise in homebuilding revenues was primarily attributable to a 14.3 percent increase in closings that totaled 2,489 units for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, compared to 2,178 units for the same period in the prior year, as well as to a 7.6 percent rise in average closing price, which was $338,000 for the fourth quarter of 2014, versus $314,000 for the same period in 2013. Homebuilding revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 included $11.9 million from land sales, which resulted in pretax earnings of $4.2 million, compared to homebuilding revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 that included $778,000 from land sales, which resulted in pretax earnings of $84,000.
New orders increased 8.3 percent to 1,547 units for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, from 1,428 units for the same period in 2013. The Company had an average monthly sales absorption rate of 1.5 homes per community for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, versus 1.7 homes per community for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, and an average cancellation rate of 21.8 percent for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, versus 20.0 percent for the same period in 2013. For the fourth quarter of 2014, new order dollars increased 14.3 percent to $536.7 million from $469.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. At December 31, 2014, backlog was flat at 2,617 units, compared to 2,626 units at December 31, 2013. The dollar value of the Companys backlog was $919.0 million at December 31, 2014, reflecting a 7.5 percent rise from $854.8 million at December 31, 2013.
Housing gross profit margin was 22.3 percent for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, compared to 21.9 percent for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. This improvement in housing gross profit margin was primarily attributable to higher leverage of direct overhead expense. Sales incentives and price concessions totaled 7.0 percent of housing revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to 6.3 percent for the same period in 2013.
Selling, general and administrative expense totaled 9.9 percent of homebuilding revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to 11.4 percent for the fourth quarter of 2013. This decrease in the selling, general

and administrative expense ratio was primarily attributable to higher leverage that resulted from increased revenues.
The homebuilding segments recorded no interest expense during the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to $238,000 during the fourth quarter of 2013. This decrease in interest expense from the fourth quarter of 2013 was primarily due to the capitalization of all interest incurred during the fourth quarter of 2014, which resulted from a higher level of inventory under development.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the financial services segment reported pretax earnings of $6.1 million, compared to $2.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. This increase in pretax earnings was primarily attributable to higher locked loan pipeline and origination volume during the fourth quarter of 2014, compared to the same period in the prior year, and to lower indemnification expense.
ANNUAL RESULTS FOR 2014
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net income of $175.8 million, or $3.09 per diluted share, compared to $379.2 million, or $6.79 per diluted share, for the same period in 2013. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a $258.9 million tax benefit related to a reversal of the Companys deferred tax asset valuation allowance in 2013, which also restored income tax expense in 2014.
The homebuilding segments reported pretax earnings of $303.5 million for 2014, compared to $201.8 million for the same period in 2013. This increase in pretax earnings was primarily due to a rise in revenues; higher housing gross profit margin; a reduced selling, general and administrative expense ratio; and a decline in interest expense.
Homebuilding revenues increased 23.0 percent to $2.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2014, from $2.1 billion for the same period in 2013. This rise in homebuilding revenues was primarily attributable to a 9.3 percent increase in closings that totaled 7,677 units for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to 7,027 units for the same period in the prior year, as well as to a 12.5 percent rise in average closing price, which was $333,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, versus $296,000 for the same period in 2013. Homebuilding revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, included $13.9 million from land sales, which resulted in pretax earnings of $4.6 million, compared to homebuilding revenues for the same period in 2013 that included $6.5 million from land sales, which resulted in pretax earnings of $1.7 million.
New orders increased 5.6 percent to 7,668 units for the year ended December 31, 2014, from 7,262 units for the same period in 2013. The Company had an average monthly sales absorption rate of 2.0 homes per community for the year ended December 31, 2014, versus 2.3 homes per community for the year ended December 31, 2013, and an average cancellation rate of 18.9 percent for the year ended December 31, 2014, versus 17.7 percent for the same period in 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2014, new order dollars increased 15.2 percent to $2.6 billion from $2.3 billion for the year ended December 31, 2013.

RYLAND FOURTH-QUARTER RESULTS
Housing gross profit margin was 21.8 percent for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to 20.8 percent for the year ended December 31, 2013. This improvement in housing gross profit margin was primarily attributable to a relative decline in direct construction costs. For the year ended December 31, 2014, sales incentives and price concessions totaled 6.7 percent of housing revenues, compared to 6.8 percent for the same period in 2013.
Selling, general and administrative expense totaled 11.2 percent of homebuilding revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to 12.2 percent for the year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease in the selling, general and administrative expense ratio was primarily attributable to higher leverage that resulted from increased revenues.
The homebuilding segments recorded no interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $8.4 million during the same period in 2013. This decrease in interest expense from the twelve months of 2013 was primarily due to the capitalization of all interest incurred during the twelve months of 2014, which resulted from a higher level of inventory under development.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the financial services segment reported pretax earnings of $7.4 million, compared to $20.1 million for the same period in 2013. This decline in pretax earnings was primarily attributable to a decrease in locked loan pipeline volume, which was due, in part, to the reversal of the accelerated timing of loan locks during 2013; an increase in litigation expense; and higher expense related to a change in estimate of ultimate insurance loss liability.
