Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following tables set forth a reconciliation between our net income and EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, and a reconciliation of our net homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that measures performance by adjusting net income to exclude interest amortized to cost of sales and interest income, net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash compensation expense and loss on extinguishment of debt, if any. Net homebuilding debt to capitalization, which we calculate by dividing (i) total debt, less unamortized debt issuance costs and mortgage warehouse borrowings, net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, by (ii) total capitalization (the sum of net homebuilding debt and total stockholders’ equity), is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our performance on a consolidated basis as well as the performance of our regions. We use the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capitalization as an indicator of overall leverage. In the future we may include additional adjustments in the above described non-GAAP financial measures, to the extent we deem them appropriate and useful to management and investors.

We believe adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it allows investors to evaluate our performance without the effects of various items we do not believe are characteristic of our ongoing operations or performance and also because it assists both investors and management in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. Adjusted EBITDA also provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, or non-recurring items. We use the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capitalization to evaluate our performance against other companies in the homebuilding industry and believe it is also relevant and useful to investors for that reason.

These measures are considered non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. 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 net income, gross margins and total debt to capitalization and any adjustments to such amounts before comparing our measures to those of such other companies.
