PULTEGROUP, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2011 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Bloomfield Hills, Mich., April 28, 2011 – PulteGroup, Inc. (NYSE: PHM) announced today financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2011. For the quarter, the Company reported a net loss of $40 million, or $0.10 per share, compared with a loss of $12 million, or $0.03 per share, for the comparable prior year period.

“We are encouraged by traffic and orders within the quarter which showed sequential increases from month-to-month, while we exceeded internal forecasts for the period on key business drivers including net new home orders and margins,” said Richard J. Dugas, Jr., PulteGroup Chairman, President and CEO. “An improving economy is slowly beginning to generate new jobs which over the long term should translate into stronger consumer confidence, both of which are critical to a meaningful and sustained recovery in the U.S. housing industry.

“Over the near term, we expect the industry will continue to face low levels of demand and that overall operating conditions will remain highly competitive. Within this environment, we remain focused on implementing actions that can drive further margin expansion and sustained overhead leverage. In combination with anticipated higher closing volumes, we expect that the financial benefits associated with these actions will enable the Company to achieve profitability in the back half of 2011.”

Revenue from home sales (settlements) in the first quarter declined 20% to $782 million, compared with $977 million in the prior year. Lower revenue for the quarter reflects a 17% decrease in closings to 3,141 homes, combined with a 3%, or $8,000, decrease in average selling price to $249,000. The decrease in average selling price primarily reflects a shift in the mix of homes closed during the quarter.

First quarter cost of sales related to home sales totaled $685 million compared with costs of $850 million in 2010. Prior year cost of sales included $5 million of impairments and $2 million in merger-related costs; these expenses were immaterial in the current period. Excluding impairments, capitalized interest expense and merger-related costs, gross margin for the quarter would have been 16.9%, compared with a comparable prior year gross margin of 16.3%. The improvement in adjusted gross margin reflects changes in the mix of houses closed and ongoing initiatives to reduce house construction costs.

Homebuilding selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense for the quarter was $136 million, down from $151 million in the comparable period last year. Although down approximately $15 million in absolute dollars, on a year-over-year basis SG&A increased as a percentage of home sale revenue as a result of the approximately 20% decrease in revenue for the quarter.

The Company’s first quarter homebuilding pre-tax loss was $41 million, compared with a $12 million pre-tax loss in the comparable prior year period.

Net new home orders for the first quarter were 4,345 homes, compared with net new orders of 4,320 for the first quarter of 2010. As previously announced, a change in the Company’s signup process reduced reported first quarter 2010 orders by approximately 450 homes. Sequentially, orders for the quarter increased 43% from the fourth quarter of 2010. Net new orders in the quarter benefitted from a decrease in cancellation rate to 16%, compared with an 18% cancellation rate in the first quarter of last year. PulteGroup’s quarter-ending backlog was 5,188 homes valued at $1.4 billion. Prior year backlog totaled 6,456 homes with an estimated value of $1.7 billion.

The Company’s financial services operations reported pretax income of $1 million for the quarter, compared with prior year income of $5 million. Loan originations for the first quarter were 1,865 compared with prior year originations of 2,325. Lower pretax income and originations for the period directly reflect the impact of reduced closings in the Company’s homebuilding operations. Mortgage capture rate for the quarter was 76%, compared with 75% for the same quarter last year.

The Company ended the quarter with a cash balance of $1.4 billion, including restricted cash. Prior to the close of the quarter, PulteGroup announced its decision to terminate the Company’s $250 million revolving credit facility. Terminating this facility will save the Company an estimated $5 million annually, but resulted in a one-time charge of approximately $1.3 million for the quarter.

A conference call discussing PulteGroup’s first quarter 2011 results is scheduled for Thursday, April 28, 2011, at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. Interested investors can access the live webcast via PulteGroup’s corporate website at www.pultegroupinc.com.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains information about home sale gross margin excluding impairments, interest expense, and merger-related costs, which is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the SEC’s rules and should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, home sale gross margin (which we define as home sale revenues less home cost of revenues) as a measure of our operating performance. Management and our local divisions use this measure in evaluating the operating performance of each community and in making strategic decisions regarding sales pricing, construction and development pace, product mix, and other daily operating decisions. We believe it is a relevant and useful measure to investors for evaluating our performance through gross profit generated on homes delivered during a given period and for comparing our operating performance to other companies in the homebuilding industry. Although other companies in the homebuilding industry report similar information, the methods used may differ. We urge investors to understand the methods used by other companies in the homebuilding industry to calculate gross margins and any adjustments thereto before comparing our measures to that of such other companies.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to home sale gross margin, a GAAP financial measure, which management believes to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to this non-GAAP financial measure ($000’s omitted):
