Orders.  Net new orders for the 2017 second quarter were up 4% from the 2016 second quarter, to 4,078 homes, with the dollar value of these orders up 7%.  The Company's monthly sales absorption rate was 2.4 per community for the 2017 second quarter, up 6% compared to the 2016 second quarter and down 4% from the 2017 first quarter.  The Company's cancellation rate for the 2017 second quarter was 14%, down compared to 15% for the 2016 second quarter and up slightly from 13% for the 2017 first quarter.

Backlog.  The dollar value of homes in backlog increased 4% to $3.6 billion, or 7,534 homes, compared to $3.4 billion, or 7,456, homes, for the 2016 second quarter, and increased 9% compared to $3.3 billion, or 7,109 homes, for the 2017 first quarter.  The increase in year-over-year backlog value was driven by the 3% increase in the average home price in our backlog, to $473 thousand and a 1% increase in units in backlog.  As of June 30, 2017, the average gross margin of the 7,534 total homes in backlog was 20.8%, up 40 basis points compared to the total homes in backlog as of March 31, 2017.     

Revenue.  Revenues from home sales for the 2017 second quarter increased 4% to $1.6 billion, as compared to the 2016 second quarter, resulting from a 5% increase in deliveries, partially offset by a 1% decrease in the Company's average home price to $444 thousand.  The decrease in average home price was primarily driven by a 5% decrease in the West region, attributable to a shift in product mix.   

Gross Margin.  The Company achieved gross margin from homes sales of 20.0% for the 2017 second quarter.  The Company's 2017 gross margin was negatively impacted by a shift in product mix and an increase in direct construction costs per home. 

SG&A Expenses.  Selling, general and administrative expenses for the 2017 second quarter were $174.0 million, or 10.7%, as compared to $165.7 million, or 10.6%, for the 2016 second quarter.  This 10 basis point increase was primarily the result of an increase in co-broker commissions.   

Land.  During the 2017 second quarter, the Company spent $406.1 million on land purchases and development costs, compared to $394.8 million for the 2016 second quarter. The Company purchased $262.4 million of land, consisting of 3,576 homesites, of which 33% (based on homesites) is located in the North region, 24% in the Southeast region, 11% in the Southwest region, and 32% in the West region.  As of June 30, 2017, the Company owned or controlled 67,622 homesites, of which 46,788 were owned and actively selling or under development, 16,502 were controlled or under option, and the remaining 4,332 homesites were held for future development or for sale. 

Liquidity.  The Company ended the quarter with $823.1 million of available liquidity, including $167.8 million of unrestricted homebuilding cash and $655.3 million available to borrow under its $750 million revolving credit facility. The Company's homebuilding debt to book capitalization as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 47.0% and 47.9%, respectively, and adjusted net homebuilding debt to adjusted book capitalization was 45.7%* and 45.9%*, respectively.  In addition, the Company's homebuilding debt to adjusted homebuilding EBITDA for the LTM period ending June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 3.8x* and 4.4x*, respectively.

Share Repurchases.  During the 2017 second quarter, the Company repurchased 4.4 million shares at an average price of $33.90 for a total spend of approximately $150.0 million.  As of the end of the quarter, the Company had $217.4 million remaining under its 2016 share repurchase authorization.

Debt Refinancing Activities.  On April 4, 2017 the Company issued $125 million of 5.875% senior notes due November 2024 and $100 million of 5.25% senior notes due June 2026.  On their May 15, 2017 maturity date, the Company repaid in full its $230 million 8.4% senior notes.  On June 9, 2017 the Company issued $350 million of 5.0% senior notes due June 2027.  On June 8, 2017 the Company issued a "Notice to Repurchase at Holder's Option" and a "Notice of Redemption" to the holders of its 1.25% convertible senior notes due 2032.  The Company intends to repurchase the entire $253 million principal balance of the 1.25% convertible notes on August 7, 2017, unless such notes are earlier repurchased or converted.  If the $253 million of convertible notes are repurchased as planned, the fully diluted share count of the Company will be reduced by approximately 6.3 million shares.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Each of the below measures are non-GAAP financial measures and other companies may calculate such non-GAAP measures differently.  Due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, such measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance measures prescribed by GAAP.

The table set forth below reconciles the Company's gross margin percentage from home sales to adjusted gross margin percentage from home sales, excluding extraordinary purchase accounting adjustments related to the merger and interest amortized to cost of home sales.  The table set forth below also calculates adjusted operating margin percentage from home sales, excluding extraordinary purchase accounting adjustments related to the merger.  We believe these measures are useful to management and investors as they provide perspective on the underlying operating performance of the business excluding these charges and provide comparability with the Company's peer group.

The table set forth below reconciles the Company's total consolidated debt to adjusted net homebuilding debt and provides the Company's total consolidated debt to book capitalization and adjusted net homebuilding debt to total adjusted book capitalization ratios.  In addition, the table set forth below calculates homebuilding debt to adjusted homebuilding EBITDA.  We believe these ratios are useful to management and investors as a measure of the Company's ability to obtain financing.  For purposes of the ratio of adjusted net homebuilding debt to total adjusted book capitalization, total adjusted book capitalization is adjusted net homebuilding debt plus stockholders' equity.  Adjusted net homebuilding debt excludes indebtedness of the Company's financial services subsidiary and additionally reflects the offset of cash and equivalents.

The table set forth below calculates EBITDA and Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA.  Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA means net income (plus cash distributions of income from unconsolidated joint ventures) before (a) income taxes, (b) homebuilding interest expense, (c) expensing of previously capitalized interest included in cost of sales, (d) impairment charges, (e) (gain) loss on early extinguishment of debt, (f) homebuilding depreciation and amortization, including amortization of capitalized model costs, (g) amortization of stock-based compensation, (h) income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures, (i) income (loss) from financial services subsidiaries, (j) extraordinary purchase accounting adjustments and (k) merger and other one-time transaction related costs.  Other companies may calculate Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA (or similarly titled measures) differently.  We believe Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA information is useful to management and investors as it provides perspective on the underlying performance of the business.  Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other operating or liquidity performance measure prescribed by GAAP.
