D.R. Horton, Inc., America’s Builder, Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2012
Results and Declares Quarterly Dividend
Business Wire
FORT WORTH, Texas -- November 12, 2012
D.R. Horton, Inc. (NYSE:DHI), America’s Builder, today reported that net
income for its fourth fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012 increased 180%
to $100.1 million, or $0.30 per diluted share. Net income for the same quarter
of fiscal 2011 was $35.7 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. Homebuilding
revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 increased 21% to $1.3 billion
from $1.1 billion in the same quarter of 2011. Homes closed in the quarter
increased 12% to 5,575, compared to 4,987 homes in the year ago quarter.
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, net income increased to $956.3
million, or $2.77 per diluted share. The fiscal year results included a tax
benefit of $713.4 million, primarily due to a reduction of the Company’s
valuation allowance for its deferred tax asset. Net income for fiscal 2011 was
$71.8 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, which included a tax benefit of
$59.7 million. Homebuilding revenue for fiscal 2012 increased 19% to $4.2
billion from $3.5 billion in fiscal 2011. Homes closed in fiscal 2012
increased 13% to 18,890 homes, compared to 16,695 homes in fiscal 2011.
Net sales orders for the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2012 increased 24%
to 5,276 homes from 4,241 homes in the year ago quarter and the value of net
sales orders increased 35% to $1.3 billion from $0.9 billion. The Company’s
cancellation rate (cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders) for
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 was 27%. Net sales orders for fiscal 2012
increased 21% to 21,048 homes from 17,421 homes in fiscal 2011, and the value
of net sales orders increased 29% to $4.8 billion from $3.7 billion.
The Company’s sales order backlog of homes under contract at September 30,
2012 increased 49% to 7,240 homes from 4,854 homes at September 30, 2011. The
value of the backlog increased 61% to $1.7 billion at September 30, 2012 from
$1.0 billion a year ago.
During the fourth quarter, the Company issued $350 million principal amount of
4.375% senior notes due September 2022. The Company ended the fiscal year with
$1.3 billion of homebuilding unrestricted cash and marketable securities and
net homebuilding debt to total capital of 21.4%. Net homebuilding debt to
total capital consists of homebuilding notes payable net of cash and
marketable securities divided by total equity plus homebuilding notes payable
net of cash and marketable securities.
The Company also entered into a five-year, $125 million senior unsecured
revolving credit facility in September 2012. Subsequent to fiscal year-end,
the Company amended the facility and obtained additional lending commitments
which increased the capacity of the facility to $600 million. The facility’s
uncommitted accordion feature was also amended to allow an increase in the
size of the facility to $1 billion.
The Company has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per share. The
dividend is payable on December 17, 2012 to stockholders of record on December
3, 2012.
Donald R. Horton, Chairman of the Board, said, “Our fiscal 2012 financial
results reflect continued improvement in the housing market and in our
company’s performance. Our fourth quarter pre-tax income of $99.2 million was
our highest in 22 quarters and contributed to our fiscal 2012 pre-tax income
of $242.9 million, the highest since fiscal 2006. Both our fourth quarter and
the fiscal year experienced significant year-over-year improvements in net
homes sold, homes closed, home sales gross margin, SG&A expense ratio and
financial services profitability. As our operating metrics and demand for
homes in most of our markets have improved, we have increased our investments
in homes, finished lots, land and land development. Our increased investments
include the acquisition of the homebuilding assets of Breland Homes during the
quarter. Even with our increased inventory investments, our balance sheet
remains strong with net homebuilding leverage of 21.4% and unrestricted
homebuilding cash and marketable securities totaling $1.3 billion.
“We are positioned for a strong start to fiscal 2013, with our highest
year-end backlog since fiscal 2007. We have continued to see strong sales
demand through October and into November. With 13,000 homes in inventory and
60,000 finished lots controlled, we have the home and lot position to continue
to grow our market share and meet increasing customer demand. We look forward
to continued improvement in our operating metrics and increased profitability
in fiscal 2013.”
The Company will host a conference call today (Monday, November 12th) at 10:00
a.m. Eastern time. The dial-in number is 877-407-8033, and the call will also
be webcast from the Company’s website at www.drhorton.com on the “Investors”

Portions of this document may constitute “forward-looking statements” as
defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although D.R.
Horton believes any such statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there
is no assurance that actual outcomes will not be materially different. All
forward-looking statements are based upon information available to D.R. Horton
on the date this release was issued. D.R. Horton does not undertake any
obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Forward-looking statements in this release include that we are positioned for
a strong start to fiscal 2013 and that with 13,000 homes in inventory and
60,000 finished lots controlled, we have the home and lot position to continue
to grow our market share and meet increasing customer demand. The
forward-looking statements also include that we look forward to continued
improvement in our operating metrics and increased profitability in fiscal
2013.
Factors that may cause the actual results to be materially different from the
future results expressed by the forward-looking statements include, but are
not limited to: potential deterioration in homebuilding industry conditions
and the current weak U.S. economy; the cyclical nature of the homebuilding
industry and changes in general economic, real estate and other conditions;
constriction of the credit markets, which could limit our ability to access
capital and increase our costs of capital; reductions in the availability of
mortgage financing and the liquidity provided by government-sponsored
enterprises, the effects of government programs, a decrease in our ability to
sell mortgage loans on attractive terms or an increase in mortgage interest
rates; the risks associated with our land and lot inventory; home warranty and
construction defect claims; supply shortages and other risks for acquiring
land, building materials and skilled labor; reductions in the availability of
performance bonds; increases in the costs of owning a home; the effects of
governmental regulations and environmental matters on our homebuilding
operations; the effects of governmental regulation on our financial services
operations; our debt obligations and our ability to comply with related debt
covenants, restrictions and limitations; competitive conditions within our
industry; our ability to effect any future growth strategies successfully; the
impact of an inflationary or deflationary environment; our ability to realize
the full amount of our deferred income tax asset; and information technology
failures and data security breaches. Additional information about issues that
could lead to material changes in performance is contained in D.R. Horton’s
annual report on Form 10-K, and our most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q,
both of which are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
