D.R. HORTON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
December 31, 2019


NOTE A i BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 i 

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include the accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. and all of its 100% owned, majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the Company, unless the context otherwise requires. Noncontrolling interests represent the proportionate equity interests in consolidated entities that are not 100% owned by the Company. The Company owns a  i 65% controlling interest in Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar) and therefore is required to consolidate 100% of Forestar within its consolidated financial statements, and the  i 35% interest the Company does not own is accounted for as noncontrolling interests. All intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. These financial statements, including the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019, which was derived from audited financial statements, do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019.

 / 
 i 
Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. At December 31, 2019, the Company reclassified its single-family rental properties from other assets to property and equipment in its homebuilding segment. Reclassification of the prior period amount resulted in a $ i 37.0 million decrease in other assets with a corresponding increase in property and equipment at September 30, 2019. This reclassification had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 / 
 i 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Seasonality

Historically, the homebuilding industry has experienced seasonal fluctuations; therefore, the operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2020 or subsequent periods.

 i 
Adoption of New Accounting Standard

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires that lease assets and liabilities be recognized on the balance sheet and that key information about leasing arrangements be disclosed. The guidance was effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2019 and did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As a result of the adoption of this standard on October 1, 2019, the Company recorded right of use assets of $ i 39.0 million and lease liabilities of $ i 40.3 million. Lease right of use assets are included in other assets and lease liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

Pending Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information in determining credit loss estimates. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other,” which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing the second step of the goodwill impairment test and requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. Under the new guidance, goodwill impairment is measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value with the loss recognized limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 related to simplifying the accounting for income taxes. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2021, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, and it is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

NOTE B i SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company is a national homebuilder that is primarily engaged in the acquisition and development of land and the construction and sale of residential homes, with operations in  i 90 markets across  i 29 states. The Company’s operating segments are its  i 52 homebuilding divisions, its majority-owned Forestar residential lot development operations, its financial services operations and its other business activities. The Company’s reporting segments are its homebuilding reporting segments, its Forestar land development segment and its financial services segment. The homebuilding operating segments are aggregated into the following  i six reporting segments: East, Midwest, Southeast, South Central, Southwest and West. These reporting segments have homebuilding operations located in the following states:
 
East:
 
Delaware, Georgia (Savannah only), Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Virginia
 
Midwest:
 
Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota and Ohio
 
Southeast:
 
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee
 
South Central:
 
Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas
 
Southwest:
 
Arizona and New Mexico
 
West:
 
California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington

The Company’s homebuilding divisions design, build and sell single-family detached homes on lots they develop and on fully developed lots purchased ready for home construction. To a lesser extent, the homebuilding divisions also build and sell attached homes, such as townhomes, duplexes and triplexes. Most of the revenue generated by the Company’s homebuilding operations is from the sale of completed homes and to a lesser extent from the sale of land and lots.

The Forestar segment is a residential lot development company with operations in  i 51 markets across  i 20 states. Forestar is making significant investments in land acquisition and development to expand its business across a geographically diversified national platform. The homebuilding divisions acquire finished lots from Forestar in accordance with the master supply agreement between the two companies. Forestar’s segment results are presented on their historical cost basis, consistent with the manner in which management evaluates segment performance.

The Company’s financial services segment provides mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of the Company’s homebuilding markets. The segment generates the substantial majority of its revenues from originating and selling mortgages and collecting fees for title insurance agency and closing services. The Company sells substantially all of the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers.

In addition to its homebuilding, Forestar and financial services operations, the Company has subsidiaries that engage in other business activities. These subsidiaries conduct insurance-related operations, construct and own income-producing multi-family rental properties, own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements and own and operate oil and gas related assets. The operating results of these subsidiaries are immaterial for separate reporting and therefore are grouped together and presented as other. One of these subsidiaries, DHI Communities, constructs multi-family rental properties and has  i four projects under active construction and  i one project that was substantially complete at December 31, 2019. In November 2019, DHI Communities sold a multi-family rental property for $ i 61.5 million and recorded a gain on the sale of $ i 31.2 million. At December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, the consolidated balance sheets included $ i 209.8 million and $ i 204.0 million, respectively, of assets owned by DHI Communities.

Expenses maintained at the corporate level consist primarily of interest and property taxes, which are capitalized and amortized to cost of sales or expensed directly, and the expenses related to operating the Company’s corporate office. The amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes is allocated to each homebuilding segment based on the segment’s cost of sales, while expenses associated with the corporate office are allocated to each homebuilding segment based on the segment’s inventory balances.

The Company’s homebuilding revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on its operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable leverage ratio and a borrowing base restriction if the leverage ratio exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility and the indenture governing the senior notes also impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its homebuilding revolving credit facility and public debt obligations.

D.R. Horton has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in August 2018, registering debt and equity securities that the Company may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined.

In October 2019, the Company issued $ i 500 million principal amount of  i 2.5% senior notes due October 15, 2024, with interest payable semi-annually. The annual effective interest rate of these notes after giving effect to the amortization of the discount and financing costs is  i 2.7%.

Effective July 30, 2019, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $ i 500 million of the Company’s debt securities. The authorization has no expiration date. All of the $ i 500 million authorization was remaining at December 31, 2019.

Forestar:

Forestar has a $ i 380 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $ i 570 million, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to the greater of $ i 100 million and  i 50% of the revolving credit commitment. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base based on Forestar’s book value of its real estate assets and unrestricted cash. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. At December 31, 2019, there were  i no borrowings outstanding and $ i 28.7 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility, resulting in available capacity of $ i 351.3 million. The maturity date of the facility is October 2, 2022, which can be extended by up to one year on up to two additional occasions, subject to the approval of lenders holding a majority of the commitments.

The Forestar revolving credit facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and financial covenants. The financial covenants require Forestar to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, a minimum level of liquidity and a maximum allowable leverage ratio. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. At December 31, 2019, Forestar was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility.

At December 31, 2019, the principal amount of Forestar’s  i 3.75% convertible senior notes was $ i 118.9 million. Forestar intends to settle these notes in cash upon their maturity on March 1, 2020, with any excess conversion value to be settled in shares of its common stock. At December 31, 2019, Forestar was in compliance with all of the limitations and restrictions associated with its senior note obligations.

Financial Services:

The Company’s mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has a mortgage repurchase facility that provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties upon receipt of funds from the counterparties. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 60 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. The total capacity of the facility is $ i 900 million, which can be increased to $ i 1.2 billion subject to the availability of additional commitments. In December 2019, the Company received an additional commitment of $ i 50 million increasing the total capacity of the facility to $ i 950 million. The additional commitment expired on January 26, 2020. The Company is currently in discussions with its lenders and expects to renew and extend the facility on similar terms prior to its February 21, 2020 maturity date.

As of December 31, 2019, $ i 953.7 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $ i 915.1 million were pledged under the mortgage repurchase facility. DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $ i 850.2 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at December 31, 2019 at a  i 3.5% annual interest rate.

The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable leverage ratio and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported to the lenders monthly. At December 31, 2019, DHI Mortgage was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility.


NOTE E i CAPITALIZED INTEREST

The Company capitalizes interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. During periods in which the Company’s active inventory is lower than its debt level, a portion of the interest incurred is reflected as interest expense in the period incurred. During the first three months of fiscal 2020 and 2019, the Company’s active inventory exceeded its debt level, and all interest incurred was capitalized to inventory.

NOTE H i INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $ i 90.8 million and $ i 89.0 million, respectively. The effective tax rate was  i 17.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to  i 23.7% in the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2019 includes a tax benefit of $ i 32.9 million from the enactment of the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2019 (the Act). The Act retroactively reinstated the federal energy efficient homes tax credit that expired on December 31, 2017 to homes closed from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. The effective tax rates for both periods include an expense for state income taxes, reduced by tax benefits related to stock-based compensation.

The Company’s deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $ i 172.4 million at December 31, 2019 compared to $ i 181.8 million at September 30, 2019. The Company has a valuation allowance of $ i 18.3 million at December 31, 2019 and $ i 18.7 million at September 30, 2019 related to state deferred tax assets for net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards that are more likely than not to expire before being realized. The Company will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to the remaining state NOL carryforwards. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact the Company’s effective tax rate.

The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets.

NOTE K i EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)

The Company’s Stock Incentive Plan provides for the granting of stock options and restricted stock units to executive officers, other key employees and non-management directors. Restricted stock unit awards may be based on performance (performance-based) or on service over a requisite time period (time-based). Performance-based and time-based RSU equity awards represent the contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per RSU if the vesting conditions and/or performance criteria are satisfied. The RSUs have no dividend or voting rights until vested.

In November 2019, a total of  i 360,000 performance-based RSU equity awards were granted to the Company’s executive officers. These awards vest at the end of a three-year performance period ending September 30, 2022. The number of units that ultimately vest depends on the Company’s relative position as compared to its peers in achieving certain performance criteria and can range from  i 0% to  i 200% of the number of units granted. The performance criteria are total shareholder return; return on investment; selling, general and administrative expense containment; and gross profit. The grant date fair value of these equity awards was $ i 52.54 per unit. Compensation expense related to these grants was $ i 2.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019, based on the Company’s performance against its peer group, the elapsed portion of the performance period and the grant date fair value of the award.

The Company estimates and records receivables under its applicable insurance policies related to its estimated contingencies for known claims and anticipated future construction defect claims on previously closed homes and other legal claims and lawsuits incurred in the ordinary course of business when recovery is probable. Additionally, the Company may have the ability to recover a portion of its losses from its subcontractors and their insurance carriers when the Company has been named as an additional insured on their insurance policies. The Company’s receivables related to its estimates of insurance recoveries from estimated losses for pending legal claims and anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes totaled $ i 76.9 million, $ i 75.1 million and $ i 57.8 million at December 31, 2019, September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

The estimation of losses related to these reserves and the related estimates of recoveries from insurance policies are subject to a high degree of variability due to uncertainties such as trends in construction defect claims relative to the Company’s markets and the types of products built, claim frequency, claim settlement costs and patterns, insurance industry practices and legal interpretations, among others. Due to the high degree of judgment required in establishing reserves for these contingencies, actual future costs and recoveries from insurance could differ significantly from current estimated amounts, and it is not possible for the Company to make a reasonable estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of its reserves.

Land and Lot Purchase Contracts

The Company enters into land and lot purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. Under these contracts, the Company will fund a stated deposit in consideration for the right, but not the obligation, to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. Under the terms of many of the purchase contracts, the deposits are not refundable in the event the Company elects to terminate the contract. Land purchase contract deposits and capitalized pre-acquisition costs are expensed to inventory and land option charges when the Company believes it is probable that it will not acquire the property under contract and will not be able to recover these costs through other means.

At December 31, 2019, the Company’s homebuilding segment had total deposits of $ i 538.5 million, consisting of cash deposits of $ i 515.9 million and promissory notes of $ i 22.6 million, related to contracts to purchase land and lots with a total remaining purchase price of approximately $ i 7.6 billion. The majority of land and lots under contract are currently expected to be purchased within three years. Of these amounts, $ i 88.8 million of the deposits related to contracts with Forestar to purchase land and lots with a remaining purchase price of $ i 918.6 million. A limited number of the homebuilding land and lot purchase contracts at December 31, 2019, representing $ i 57.3 million of remaining purchase price, were subject to specific performance provisions that may require the Company to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their respective contractual obligations. Of the $ i 57.3 million remaining purchase price subject to specific performance provisions, $ i 12.3 million related to contracts between the homebuilding segment and Forestar.

During the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, Forestar reimbursed the homebuilding segment $ i 10.7 million and $ i 12.1 million, respectively, for previously paid earnest money and $ i 5.2 million and $ i 3.0 million, respectively, for pre-acquisition and other due diligence costs related to land purchase contracts whereby the homebuilding segment assigned its rights under contract to Forestar.

Other Commitments

At December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding surety bonds of $ i 1.7 billion and letters of credit of $ i 170.4 million to secure performance under various contracts. Of the total letters of credit, $ i 141.7 million were issued under the homebuilding revolving credit facility and $ i 28.7 million were issued under Forestar’s revolving credit facility. At December 31, 2019, letters of credit issued under the homebuilding revolving credit facility were cash collateralized to improve pricing terms. This unrestricted cash can be withdrawn by the Company at its discretion.

(a)
The Company typically elects the fair value option upon origination for mortgage loans held for sale. Interest income earned on mortgage loans held for sale is based on contractual interest rates and included in other income. Mortgage loans held for sale valued using Level 3 inputs at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019 include $ i 11.8 million and $ i 9.8 million, respectively, of loans for which the Company elected the fair value option upon origination and did not sell into the secondary market. The fair value of these mortgage loans held for sale is generally calculated considering pricing in the secondary market and adjusted for the value of the underlying collateral, including interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. The Company plans to sell these loans as market conditions permit.
 / 
(b)
Fair value measurements of these derivatives represent changes in fair value, as calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets, and are reflected in the balance sheet as other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities.

NOTE O i RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In March 2019, the Company assigned its rights under a land purchase contract it entered into in December 2017 to R&R Riverview LLC (R&R), an entity owned by Ryan Horton and Reagan Horton, the adult sons of Donald R. Horton, the Company’s Chairman. In March 2019, R&R exercised its rights under the purchase contract and paid $ i 77.5 million for  i 119 acres of undeveloped land in Arizona. In connection with the transaction, Donald R. Horton loaned R&R $ i 77.5 million at a  i 2.55% annual interest rate and obtained a security interest in the land. Concurrent with the contract assignment to R&R, the Company entered into a land purchase contract with R&R to purchase the  i 119 acres for R&R’s cost plus an annualized return of  i 16%. In accordance with the Company’s policy on related party transactions, this transaction was reviewed and approved by a committee of the Board of Directors composed of independent directors.
 
The Company determined that R&R was a variable interest entity, and the Company had the power through its rights in its land purchase contract with R&R to control the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the variable interest entity in its consolidated financial statements by increasing inventory and notes payable by $ i 77.5 million, and this amount was included in those balances at September 30, 2019.

In October 2019, the Company paid R&R $ i 84.2 million for all  i 119 acres of land and deconsolidated the variable interest entity from the financial statements. The purchase transaction was also reviewed and approved by a committee of the Board of Directors composed of independent directors.

NOTE P i SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR INFORMATION

All of the Company’s homebuilding senior notes and the homebuilding revolving credit facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by certain subsidiaries of D.R. Horton, Inc. (Guarantor Subsidiaries). Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries is 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company. The Company’s subsidiaries associated with the Forestar land development operation, the financial services operations and certain other subsidiaries do not guarantee the Company’s homebuilding senior notes or the homebuilding revolving credit facility (collectively, Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries). In lieu of providing separate financial statements for the Guarantor Subsidiaries, consolidating condensed financial statements are presented below. Separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because management has determined that they are not material to investors.

The guarantees by a Guarantor Subsidiary will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon: (1) the sale or other disposition of its common stock whereby it is no longer a subsidiary of the Company; (2) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets (other than to the Company or another Guarantor); (3) its merger or consolidation with an entity other than the Company or another Guarantor; or (4) its ceasing to guarantee any of the Company’s publicly traded debt securities and ceasing to guarantee any of the Company’s obligations under the homebuilding revolving credit facility.

As described in Note A, at December 31, 2019, the Company reclassified its single-family rental properties from other assets to property and equipment in its homebuilding segment. Reclassification of prior period amounts resulted in decreases in other assets of $ i 26.9 million and $ i 10.1 million in the D.R. Horton, Inc. and Guarantor Subsidiaries columns, respectively, with corresponding increases in property and equipment at September 30, 2019.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this quarterly report and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis constitutes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section following this discussion.


BUSINESS

D.R. Horton, Inc. is the largest homebuilding company in the United States as measured by number of homes closed. We construct and sell homes through our operating divisions in 90 markets across 29 states, primarily under the names of D.R. Horton, America’s Builder; Emerald Homes; Express Homes and Freedom Homes. Our common stock is included in the S&P 500 Index and listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “DHI.” Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “D.R. Horton,” the “Company,” “we” and “our” used herein refer to D.R. Horton, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its predecessors and subsidiaries.

Our business operations consist of homebuilding, a majority-owned residential lot development company, financial services and other activities. Our homebuilding operations are our core business and primarily include the construction and sale of single-family homes with sales prices generally ranging from $100,000 to more than $1,000,000, with an average closing price of $298,100 during the three months ended December 31, 2019. Approximately 91% of our home sales revenue in the three months ended December 31, 2019 was generated from the sale of single-family detached homes, with the remainder from the sale of attached homes, such as townhomes, duplexes and triplexes.

During fiscal 2018, we acquired 75% of the outstanding shares of Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar), for $558.3 million in cash. Forestar is a publicly traded residential lot development company listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “FOR.” Forestar is a component of our homebuilding strategy to enhance operational efficiency and returns by expanding relationships with land developers and increasing the portion of our land and lot position controlled under land purchase contracts. We owned approximately 65% of Forestar’s outstanding common stock at December 31, 2019.

Our financial services operations provide mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of our homebuilding markets. DHI Mortgage, our 100% owned subsidiary, provides mortgage financing services primarily to our homebuyers and generally sells the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers. DHI Mortgage originates loans in accordance with purchaser guidelines and sells substantially all of its mortgage production shortly after origination. Our 100% owned subsidiary title companies serve as title insurance agents by providing title insurance policies, examination and closing services, primarily to our homebuyers.

In addition to our homebuilding, Forestar and financial services operations, we have subsidiaries that engage in other business activities. These subsidiaries conduct insurance-related operations, construct and own income-producing multi-family rental properties, own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements and own and operate oil and gas related assets. The operating results of these subsidiaries are immaterial for separate reporting and therefore are grouped together and presented as other. One of these subsidiaries, DHI Communities, develops, constructs and owns multi-family residential properties that produce rental income. DHI Communities is primarily focused on constructing garden style multi-family products, which typically accommodate 200 to 400 dwelling units, in high growth suburban markets. After DHI Communities has completed construction and achieved a stabilized occupancy rate, the property is typically marketed for sale. We currently have four projects under active construction and one project that is substantially complete. In November 2019, DHI Communities sold a multi-family rental property for $61.5 million and recorded a gain on the sale of $31.2 million. At December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, our consolidated balance sheets included $209.8 million and $204.0 million, respectively, of assets owned by DHI Communities. The combined assets of all of our subsidiaries engaged in other business activities totaled $333.4 million and $317.9 million at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, respectively, and the combined pre-tax income of these subsidiaries was $29.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $1.0 million in the prior year period.

OVERVIEW

The improvement in the housing market that we have experienced in recent quarters continued during the first quarter of 2020. As interest rates on mortgage loans remained low and demand strengthened, we reduced sales incentives compared to the prior year quarter. We continue to see solid economic fundamentals and a limited supply of homes at affordable prices across most of our markets.

We believe our business is well positioned with a broad geographic footprint; affordable product offerings; a balanced supply of finished lots, land and homes; a strong balance sheet and liquidity position; and experienced personnel across our operating markets. We remain focused on growing our revenues and profitability, generating consistently strong annual cash flows from our homebuilding operations and managing our product offerings, pricing, sales pace and inventory levels to optimize the return on our inventory investments. We are monitoring our sales pace, pricing and homes in inventory in each of our communities, and we will adjust sales pace, home pricing and incentives based on local housing market conditions.

During the three months ended December 31, 2019, our number of homes closed and home sales revenues both increased 13% compared to the prior year period, and our consolidated revenues increased 14% to $4.0 billion compared to $3.5 billion in the prior year period. Our pre-tax income was $523.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $375.7 million in the prior year period, and our pre-tax operating margin was 13.0% compared to 10.7%. Net income was $432.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $286.7 million in the prior year period. The current quarter results include a tax benefit of $32.9 million related to the retroactive reinstatement of the federal energy efficient homes tax credit.

Cash used in our homebuilding operations was $178.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $396.8 million in the prior year period. In the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2019, our homebuilding return on inventory (ROI) was 18.7% compared to 19.3% in the prior year period. Homebuilding ROI is calculated as homebuilding pre-tax income for the year divided by average inventory. Average inventory in the ROI calculation is the sum of ending inventory balances for the trailing five quarters divided by five.

Within our homebuilding land and lot portfolio, our lots controlled under purchase contracts represent 61% of the lots owned and controlled at December 31, 2019 compared to 60% at September 30, 2019 and 58% at December 31, 2018. Growing our majority-owned Forestar lot development operations is advancing our homebuilding strategy of increasing our controlled finished lot pipeline.

We believe that housing demand in our individual operating markets is tied closely to each market’s economy. Therefore, we expect that housing market conditions will vary across our markets. If the U.S. economy continues to grow, we expect to see solid housing demand, concentrated in markets where job growth is occurring and new home prices remain affordable relative to household incomes. The pace and sustainability of new home demand and our future results could be negatively affected by weakening economic conditions, decreases in the level of employment and housing demand, decreased home affordability, increases in mortgage interest rates or tightening of mortgage lending standards.


36


STRATEGY

Our operating strategy focuses on enhancing long-term value to our shareholders by leveraging our financial and competitive position in our core homebuilding business to increase the returns on our inventory investments and generate strong profitability and cash flows, while managing risk and maintaining financial flexibility to make opportunistic strategic investments. This strategy includes the following initiatives:
Developing and retaining highly experienced and productive teams of personnel throughout our company that are aligned and focused on continuous improvement in our operational execution and financial performance.
Maintaining a strong cash balance and overall liquidity position and controlling our level of debt.
Allocating and actively managing our inventory investments across our operating markets to diversify our geographic risk.
Offering new home communities that appeal to a broad range of entry-level, move-up, active adult and luxury homebuyers based on consumer demand in each market.
Modifying product offerings, sales pace, home prices and sales incentives as necessary in each of our markets to meet consumer demand and maintain affordability.
Delivering high quality homes and a positive experience to our customers both during and after the sale.
Managing our inventory of homes under construction relative to demand in each of our markets, including starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand and actively controlling the number of unsold, completed homes in inventory.
Investing in land and land development in desirable markets, while controlling the level of land and lots we own in each of our markets relative to the local new home demand.
Increasing the amount of land and finished lots controlled through purchase contracts by expanding relationships with land developers across the country and continuing to assist our majority-owned Forestar lot development subsidiary with the growth of their operations.
Opportunistically pursuing acquisitions to enhance our operations and improve returns.
Controlling the cost of goods purchased from both vendors and subcontractors.
Improving the efficiency of our land development, construction, sales and other key operational activities.
Controlling our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense infrastructure to match production levels.
Ensuring that our financial services business provides high quality mortgage and title services to homebuyers efficiently and effectively.
Investing in the construction of garden style multi-family rental properties to meet rental demand in high growth suburban markets and selling these properties profitably.

We believe our operating strategy, which has produced positive results in recent years, will allow us to maintain and improve our financial and competitive position and balance sheet strength. However, we cannot provide any assurances that the initiatives listed above will continue to be successful, and we may need to adjust components of our strategy to meet future market conditions.

___________________________________________
(1)
Net sales orders represent the number and dollar value of new sales contracts executed with customers (gross sales orders), net of cancelled sales orders.
(2)
Cancellation rate represents the number of cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders.

Net Sales Orders

The number of net sales orders increased 19% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, with increases in all of our regions. The value of net sales orders increased 22% to $3.9 billion (13,126 homes) for the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $3.2 billion (11,042 homes) in the prior year period. The average selling price of net sales orders during the three months ended December 31, 2019 was $300,900, up 3% from the prior year period.

The markets contributing most to the increases in sales volumes in our regions were as follows: Carolina markets in the East; Iowa, Minnesota and Indiana markets in the Midwest; Florida markets in the Southeast; Fort Worth and Houston markets in the South Central; the Phoenix market in the Southwest; and Portland and Seattle markets in the West.

Our sales order cancellation rate (cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders for the period) was 20% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to 24% in the prior year period.

We believe our business is well positioned to continue to generate increased sales volume; however, our future sales volumes will depend on new home demand in each of our operating markets and our ability to successfully implement our operating strategies.

Sales Order Backlog

Sales order backlog represents homes under contract but not yet closed at the end of the period. Many of the contracts in our sales order backlog are subject to contingencies, including mortgage loan approval and buyers selling their existing homes, which can result in cancellations. A portion of the contracts in backlog will not result in closings due to cancellations.

Home Sales Revenue

Revenues from home sales increased 13% to $3.9 billion (12,959 homes closed) for the three months ended December 31, 2019 from $3.4 billion (11,500 homes closed) in the prior year period. Home sales revenues increased in all of our regions primarily due to an increase in the number of homes closed, as well as an increase in the average selling price of those homes in our Southwest region.

The number of homes closed increased 13% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period. The markets contributing most to the increases in closing volumes in our regions were as follows: Carolina markets in the East; Indiana and Iowa markets in the Midwest; Florida markets in the Southeast; the Houston market in the South Central; the Phoenix market in the Southwest; and California markets in the West.

Home Sales Gross Profit

Gross profit from home sales increased to $811.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 from $681.4 million in the prior year period and increased 100 basis points to 21.0% as a percentage of home sales revenues. The percentage increase resulted from improvements of 90 basis points due to a decrease in the average cost of our homes closed while the average selling price increased slightly, 20 basis points from a decrease in the amount of purchase accounting adjustments related to prior year acquisitions and 10 basis points due to a decrease in the amortization of capitalized interest, partially offset by a 20 basis point decrease due to increased warranty and construction defect costs.

We remain focused on managing the pricing, incentives and sales pace in each of our communities to optimize the returns on our inventory investments and adjust to local market conditions and new home demand. These actions could cause our gross profit margins to fluctuate in future periods.

Land/Lot Sales and Other Revenues

Land sales and other revenues from our homebuilding operations were $19.7 million and $6.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. We continually evaluate our land and lot supply, and fluctuations in revenues and profitability from land sales occur based on how we manage our inventory levels in various markets. We generally purchase land and lots with the intent to build and sell homes on them. However, some of the land that we purchase includes commercially zoned parcels that we may sell to commercial developers. We may also sell residential lots or land parcels to manage our supply or for other strategic reasons. As of December 31, 2019, our homebuilding operations had $22.9 million of land held for sale that we expect to sell in the next twelve months.

Inventory and Land Option Charges

At the end of each quarter, we review the performance and outlook for all of our communities and land inventories for indicators of potential impairment and perform detailed impairment evaluations and analyses when necessary. At December 31, 2019, we performed detailed impairment evaluations of communities and land inventories with a combined carrying value of $34.2 million and determined that no communities or land inventories were impaired. Accordingly, no impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $4.2 million of impairment charges recorded in the prior year period.

As we manage our inventory investments across our operating markets to optimize returns and cash flows, we may modify our pricing and incentives, construction and development plans or land sale strategies in individual active communities and land held for development, which could result in the affected communities being evaluated for potential impairment. Also, if housing or economic conditions weaken in specific markets in which we operate, or if conditions weaken in the broader economy or homebuilding industry, we may be required to evaluate additional communities for potential impairment. These evaluations could result in additional impairment charges.

During the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs related to land purchase contracts that we have terminated or expect to terminate were $3.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expense

SG&A expense from homebuilding activities increased 10% to $358.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 from $324.7 million in the prior year period. SG&A expense as a percentage of homebuilding revenues was 9.2% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to 9.5% in the prior year period.

Employee compensation and related costs represented 73% and 70% of SG&A costs in the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These costs increased 16% to $262.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 due to an increase in the amount of incentive compensation as compared to the prior year period. Our homebuilding operations employed 6,811 and 6,849 employees at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

We attempt to control our SG&A costs while ensuring that our infrastructure adequately supports our operations; however, we cannot make assurances that we will be able to maintain or improve upon the current SG&A expense as a percentage of revenues.

Interest Incurred

We capitalize interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. Interest incurred by our homebuilding operations decreased 10% to $24.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 from $27.1 million in the prior year period. The decrease was due to a 5% decrease in our average homebuilding debt and a lower average interest rate on our homebuilding debt during the period. Interest charged to cost of sales was 0.8% and 0.9% of total cost of sales (excluding inventory and land option charges) in the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Other Income

Other income, net of other expenses, included in our homebuilding operations was $5.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $2.0 million in the prior year period. Other income consists of interest income, rental income and various other types of ancillary income, gains, expenses and losses not directly associated with sales of homes, land and lots. The activities that result in this ancillary income are not significant, either individually or in the aggregate.

Expenses maintained at the corporate level consist primarily of interest and property taxes, which are capitalized and amortized to cost of sales or expensed directly, and the expenses related to operating our corporate office. The amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes is allocated to each segment based on the segment’s cost of sales, while expenses associated with the corporate office are allocated to each segment based on the segment’s inventory balances.


East Region — Homebuilding revenues increased 16% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in the number of homes closed in our Carolina markets. The region generated pre-tax income of $59.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $38.0 million in the prior year period. Gross profit from home sales as a percentage of home sales revenue (home sales gross profit percentage) increased by 280 basis points in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, due to an increase in the average selling price of homes closed while the average cost of those homes decreased slightly.

Home sales gross profit percentage increased by 330 basis points in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, largely due to a decrease in purchase accounting adjustments related to the two acquisitions. As a percentage of homebuilding revenues, SG&A expenses increased by 160 basis points in the three months ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to increases in employee compensation.

Southeast Region — Homebuilding revenues increased 13% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increases in the number of homes closed in our Florida markets. The region generated pre-tax income of $146.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $112.3 million in the prior year period. Home sales gross profit percentage increased by 140 basis points in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in the average selling price of homes closed while the average cost of those homes decreased slightly.

As a percentage of homebuilding revenues, SG&A expenses decreased by 220 basis points in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the significant increase in homebuilding revenues.

West Region — Homebuilding revenues increased 10% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period, due to an increase in the number of homes closed in most markets, partially offset by a decrease in the average selling price of homes closed.

HOMEBUILDING INVENTORIES, LAND AND LOT POSITION AND HOMES IN INVENTORY

We routinely enter into contracts to purchase land or developed residential lots at predetermined prices on a defined schedule commensurate with planned development or anticipated new home demand. At the time of purchase, the undeveloped land is generally vested with the rights to begin development or construction work, and we plan and coordinate the development of our land into residential lots for use in our homebuilding business. We manage our inventory of owned land and lots and homes under construction relative to demand in each of our markets, including starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand and actively controlling the number of unsold, completed homes in inventory.

Our homebuilding segment’s inventories at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019 are summarized as follows:

Mortgage Loan Activity

The volume of loans originated by our mortgage operations is directly related to the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations. In the three months ended December 31, 2019, the volume of first-lien loans originated or brokered by DHI Mortgage for our homebuyers increased 35% from the prior year period, primarily due to the 13% increase in the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations and an increase in the percentage of homes closed for which DHI Mortgage handled the homebuyers’ financing from 54% in the prior year period to 65% in the current period. The increase in the portion of home closings financed by DHI Mortgage was primarily due to the Company’s program to offer below market interest rates to D.R. Horton homebuyers, expanded coverage in certain markets and increased efficiencies resulting from technology advances.

Homes closed by our homebuilding operations constituted 97% and 98% of DHI Mortgage loan originations in the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These percentages reflect DHI Mortgage’s consistent focus on the captive business provided by our homebuilding operations.

The number of loans sold increased 24% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year period. Virtually all of the mortgage loans held for sale on December 31, 2019 were eligible for sale to the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) or the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae). Approximately 86% of the mortgage loans sold by DHI Mortgage during the three months ended December 31, 2019 were sold to four major financial entities, of which one entity purchased 31%.

Financial Services Revenues and Expenses

Revenues from our mortgage operations increased 20% to $81.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 from $67.6 million in the prior year period, while the number of loan originations increased 36% over that same period. Revenues increased at a lower rate than origination volume due to lower pricing and resulting net gains on loan originations due to competitive pressures in the mortgage market.

General and administrative (G&A) expense related to our financial services operations increased 19% to $77.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019 from $65.6 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in employee related costs. Our financial services operations employed 1,882 and 1,925 employees at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

As a percentage of financial services revenues, G&A expense was 75.7% in the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to 76.9% in the prior year period. Fluctuations in financial services G&A expense as a percentage of revenues can be expected to occur, as some components of revenue may fluctuate differently than loan volumes, and some expenses are not directly related to mortgage loan volume or to changes in the amount of revenue earned.

Other income, net of other expense, included in our financial services operations consists primarily of the interest income of our mortgage subsidiary.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - OTHER BUSINESSES

Through DHI Communities, a 100% owned subsidiary, we develop, construct and own multi-family residential properties that produce rental income. DHI Communities is primarily focused on constructing garden style multi-family products, which typically accommodate 200 to 400 dwelling units, in high growth suburban markets. After DHI Communities has completed construction and achieved a stabilized occupancy rate, the property is typically marketed for sale. We currently have four projects under active construction and one project that is substantially complete. In November 2019, DHI Communities sold a multi-family rental property for $61.5 million and recorded a gain on the sale of $31.2 million.



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSOLIDATED

Income before Income Taxes

Pre-tax income for the three months ended December 31, 2019 was $523.3 million compared to $375.7 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income generated by our homebuilding operations as a result of higher revenues from increased home closings and an increase in home sales gross margin.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $90.8 million and $89.0 million, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 17.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to 23.7% in the prior year period. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2019 includes a tax benefit of $32.9 million from the enactment of the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2019 (the Act). The Act retroactively reinstated the federal energy efficient homes tax credit that expired on December 31, 2017 to homes closed from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. The effective tax rates for both periods include an expense for state income taxes, reduced by tax benefits related to stock-based compensation.

Our deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $172.4 million at December 31, 2019 compared to $181.8 million at September 30, 2019. We have a valuation allowance of $18.3 million at December 31, 2019 and $18.7 million at September 30, 2019 related to state deferred tax assets for net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards that are more likely than not to expire before being realized. We will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to our remaining state NOL carryforwards. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact our effective tax rate.

The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of our deferred tax assets.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

We have historically funded our operations with cash flows from operating activities, borrowings under bank credit facilities and the issuance of new debt securities. Our current levels of cash, borrowing capacity and balance sheet leverage provide us with the operational flexibility to adjust to changes in market conditions by increasing our investments in homes, finished lots, land and land development to expand our operations and grow our revenues and profitability, as well as to consider opportunistic strategic investments as they arise.

At December 31, 2019, our ratio of debt to total capital (notes payable divided by stockholders’ equity plus notes payable) was 27.0% compared to 25.3% at September 30, 2019 and 26.8% at December 31, 2018. Our ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital (homebuilding notes payable divided by stockholders’ equity plus homebuilding notes payable) was 19.5% compared to 17.0% at September 30, 2019 and 23.2% at December 31, 2018. Over the long term, we intend to maintain our ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital below 35%, and we expect it to remain significantly lower than 35% throughout fiscal 2020. We believe that the ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital is useful in understanding the leverage employed in our homebuilding operations and comparing our capital structure with other homebuilders. We exclude the debt of Forestar and our financial services business because they are separately capitalized and not guaranteed by our parent company or any of our homebuilding entities.

We regularly assess our projected capital requirements to fund growth in our business, repay debt obligations, pay dividends, repurchase our common stock and support other general corporate and operational needs, and we regularly evaluate our opportunities to raise additional capital. D.R. Horton has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in August 2018, registering debt and equity securities that may be issued from time to time in amounts to be determined. Forestar also has an effective shelf registration statement filed with the SEC in September 2018, registering $500 million of equity securities, of which $394.3 million remains available. As market conditions permit, we may issue new debt or equity securities through the capital markets or obtain additional bank financing to fund our projected capital requirements or provide additional liquidity. We believe that our existing cash resources, revolving credit facilities, mortgage repurchase facility and ability to access the capital markets will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our near-term working capital needs and debt obligations, including the maturity of $500 million principal amount of homebuilding senior notes in February 2020 and $118.9 million principal amount of Forestar’s convertible senior notes in March 2020.

Capital Resources - Homebuilding

Cash and Cash Equivalents — At December 31, 2019, cash and cash equivalents of our homebuilding segment totaled $1.2 billion.

Bank Credit Facility — We have a $1.59 billion senior unsecured homebuilding revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $2.5 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to 100% of the revolving credit commitment. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be based on either the Prime Rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin, as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility. The maturity date of the facility is October 2, 2024. At December 31, 2019, there were no borrowings outstanding and $141.7 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility, resulting in available capacity of $1.4 billion. There were no borrowings or repayments under the facility during the three months ended December 31, 2019.

Our homebuilding revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on our operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable leverage ratio and a borrowing base restriction if our leverage ratio exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility imposes restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At December 31, 2019, we were in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of our homebuilding revolving credit facility.



53


Public Unsecured Debt — We have $2.45 billion principal amount of homebuilding senior notes outstanding as of December 31, 2019 that mature from February 2020 through October 2024. In October 2019, we issued $500 million principal amount of 2.5% senior notes due October 15, 2024, with interest payable semi-annually. The annual effective interest rate of these notes after giving effect to the amortization of the discount and financing costs is 2.7%. The indenture governing our senior notes imposes restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At December 31, 2019, we were in compliance with all of the limitations and restrictions associated with our public debt obligations.

Repurchases of Common Stock — During the three months ended December 31, 2019, we repurchased 3.0 million shares of our common stock for $163.1 million.

Debt and Equity Repurchase Authorizations — Effective July 30, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of debt securities and $1.0 billion of our common stock. At December 31, 2019, the full amount of the debt repurchase authorization was remaining and $732.6 million of the equity repurchase authorization was remaining. These authorizations have no expiration date.

Capital Resources - Forestar

Forestar’s ability to achieve its long-term growth objectives will depend on its ability to obtain financing in sufficient capacities. As market conditions permit, Forestar may issue new debt or equity securities through the capital markets or obtain additional bank financing to provide capital for future growth and additional liquidity.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — At December 31, 2019, Forestar had cash and cash equivalents of $373.3 million.

Bank Credit Facility — Forestar has a $380 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $570 million, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to the greater of $100 million and 50% of the revolving credit commitment. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base based on Forestar’s book value of its real estate assets and unrestricted cash. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. At December 31, 2019, there were no borrowings outstanding and $28.7 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility, resulting in available capacity of $351.3 million. The maturity date of the facility is October 2, 2022, which can be extended by up to one year on up to two additional occasions, subject to the approval of lenders holding a majority of the commitments.

The revolving credit facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and financial covenants. The financial covenants require Forestar to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, a minimum level of liquidity and a maximum allowable leverage ratio. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. At December 31, 2019, Forestar was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility.

Unsecured Debt — Forestar has $118.9 million principal amount of 3.75% convertible senior notes that are expected to be settled in cash upon their maturity on March 1, 2020. Forestar also has $350 million principal amount of 8.0% senior notes that mature April 15, 2024. At December 31, 2019, Forestar was in compliance with all of the limitations and restrictions associated with its senior note obligations.

Forestar’s revolving credit facility, its senior notes and its convertible senior notes are not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee our homebuilding debt.



54


Capital Resources - Financial Services

Cash and Cash Equivalents — At December 31, 2019, cash and cash equivalents of our financial services operations totaled $37.5 million.

Mortgage Repurchase Facility — Our mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has a mortgage repurchase facility that provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties upon receipt of funds from the counterparties. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 60 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. The total capacity of the facility is $900 million, which can be increased to $1.2 billion subject to the availability of additional commitments. In December 2019, we received an additional commitment of $50 million increasing the total capacity of the facility to $950 million. The additional commitment expired on January 26, 2020. We are currently in discussions with our lenders and expect to renew and extend the facility on similar terms prior to its February 21, 2020 maturity date.

As of December 31, 2019, $953.7 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $915.1 million were pledged under the mortgage repurchase facility. DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $850.2 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at December 31, 2019 at a 3.5% annual interest rate.

The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee our homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable leverage ratio and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported to the lenders monthly. At December 31, 2019, DHI Mortgage was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility.

In the past, DHI Mortgage has been able to renew or extend its mortgage credit facility at a sufficient capacity and on satisfactory terms prior to its maturity and obtain temporary additional commitments through amendments to the credit agreement during periods of higher than normal volumes of mortgages held for sale. The liquidity of our financial services business depends upon its continued ability to renew and extend the mortgage repurchase facility or to obtain other additional financing in sufficient capacities.

Operating Cash Flow Activities

In the three months ended December 31, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $113.8 million compared to $373.1 million in the prior year period. Cash used in operating activities in the current year period primarily consisted of $178.4 million and $11.7 million of cash used in our homebuilding and Forestar segments, respectively, partially offset by $83.5 million of cash provided by our financial services segment.

Cash used to increase construction in progress and finished home inventory was $334.8 million in the current year period compared to $500.3 million in the prior year period. In both periods, the expenditures were made to support the current period increase in sales and closing volumes, as well as the expected increase in future periods. Cash used to increase residential land and lots in the current year period was $373.1 million compared to $435.9 million in the prior year period. Of these amounts, $38.9 million and $191.5 million related to Forestar, respectively. The most significant source of cash provided by operating activities in both periods was net income.

Investing Cash Flow Activities

In the three months ended December 31, 2019, net cash used in investing activities was $17.8 million compared to $310.4 million in the prior year period. In the current year period, uses of cash included expenditures related to our rental properties totaling $59.6 million and purchases of property and equipment totaling $21.6 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of assets primarily consisting of $61.5 million related to the sale of a multi-family rental property. In the prior year period, the most significant uses of cash were the purchases of the homebuilding operations of Westport Homes, Classic Builders and Terramor Homes, whereby $293.0 million of the aggregate purchase price was paid during the period.



55


Financing Cash Flow Activities

We expect the short-term financing needs of our operations will be funded with existing cash, cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities. Long-term financing needs for the growth of our homebuilding and Forestar operations may be funded with the issuance of senior unsecured debt securities or equity securities through the capital markets.

During the three months ended December 31, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was $213.5 million, consisting primarily of note proceeds from our issuance of $500 million principal amount of 2.5% senior notes, partially offset by cash used for the repurchase of 3.0 million shares of our common stock for $163.1 million, payment of cash dividends totaling $64.6 million and net payments on our mortgage repurchase facility of $38.6 million.

During the three months ended December 31, 2018, net cash used in financing activities was $54.2 million, consisting primarily of the repayment of amounts drawn on our homebuilding revolving credit facility totaling $275 million, net payments on our mortgage repurchase facility of $163.8 million, the repurchase of 4.1 million shares of our common stock for $140.6 million and the payment of cash dividends totaling $56.0 million. These uses of cash were largely offset by note proceeds from amounts drawn on our homebuilding revolving credit facility totaling $575 million.

During the three months ended December 31, 2019, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.175 per common share, which was paid on December 11, 2019 to stockholders of record on November 27, 2019. In January 2020, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.175 per common share, payable on February 24, 2020 to stockholders of record on February 10, 2020. Cash dividends of $0.15 per common share were approved and paid in each quarter of fiscal 2019. The declaration of future cash dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our future earnings, cash flows, capital requirements, financial condition and general business conditions.


56



CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS, COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Our primary contractual cash obligations are payments under our debt agreements and lease payments under operating leases. We expect to fund our contractual obligations in the ordinary course of business through a combination of our existing cash resources, cash flows generated from profits, our credit facilities or other bank financing, and the issuance of new debt or equity securities through the public capital markets as market conditions may permit.

At December 31, 2019, we had outstanding letters of credit of $170.4 million and surety bonds of $1.7 billion, issued by third parties to secure performance under various contracts. We expect that our performance obligations secured by these letters of credit and bonds will generally be completed in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with the applicable contractual terms. When we complete our performance obligations, the related letters of credit and bonds are generally released shortly thereafter, leaving us with no continuing obligations. We have no material third-party guarantees.

Our mortgage subsidiary enters into various commitments related to the lending activities of our mortgage operations. Further discussion of these commitments is provided in Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” under Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

We enter into land and lot purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. Lot purchase contracts enable us to control significant lot positions with limited capital investment. Among our homebuilding land and lot purchase contracts at December 31, 2019, there were a limited number of contracts, representing $57.3 million of remaining purchase price, subject to specific performance provisions that may require us to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their respective contractual obligations. Of this amount, $12.3 million related to contracts between our homebuilding segment and Forestar. Further information about our land purchase contracts is provided in the “Homebuilding Inventories, Land and Lot Position and Homes in Inventory” section included herein.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, inventories and cost of sales, warranty claims and legal claims and insurance. Since September 30, 2019, there have been no significant changes to those critical accounting policies.

As disclosed in our critical accounting policies in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, our reserves for construction defect claims include the estimated costs of both known claims and anticipated future claims. At December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, we had reserves for approximately 195 and 180 pending construction defect claims, respectively, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the three months ended December 31, 2019, we established reserves for approximately 35 new construction defect claims and resolved 20 construction defect claims for a total cost of $14.9 million. At both December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, we had reserves for approximately 155 pending construction defect claims, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, we established reserves for approximately 30 new construction defect claims and resolved 30 construction defect claims for a total cost of $3.4 million.


SEASONALITY

Although significant changes in market conditions have impacted our seasonal patterns in the past and could do so again in the future, we generally close more homes and generate greater revenues and operating income in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. The seasonal nature of our business can also cause significant variations in our working capital requirements in our homebuilding, land development and financial services operations. As a result of seasonal activity, our quarterly results of operations and financial position at the end of a particular fiscal quarter are not necessarily representative of the balance of our fiscal year.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. We monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates and utilize both fixed and variable rate debt. For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value of the debt instrument, but may affect our future earnings and cash flows. Except in very limited circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value would not have a significant impact on our cash flows related to our fixed-rate debt until such time as we are required to refinance, repurchase or repay such debt.

We are exposed to interest rate risk associated with our mortgage loan origination services. We manage interest rate risk through the use of forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), which are referred to as “hedging instruments” in the following discussion. We do not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and who meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. Typically, the IRLCs have a duration of less than six months. Some IRLCs are committed immediately to a specific purchaser through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments, while other IRLCs are funded prior to being committed to third-party purchasers. The hedging instruments related to IRLCs are classified and accounted for as derivative instruments in an economic hedge, with gains and losses recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Hedging instruments related to funded, uncommitted loans are accounted for at fair value, with changes recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations, along with changes in the fair value of the funded, uncommitted loans. The fair value change related to the hedging instruments generally offsets the fair value change in the uncommitted loans. The net fair value change, which for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was not significant, is recognized in current earnings. At December 31, 2019, hedging instruments used to mitigate interest rate risk related to uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale and uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of $1.4 billion. Uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of approximately $718.0 million and uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale totaled a notional amount of approximately $680.8 million at December 31, 2019.

We occasionally enter into forward sales of MBS as part of a program to offer below market interest rate financing to our homebuyers in certain markets. At December 31, 2019, we had MBS totaling $594.4 million that did not yet have IRLCs or closed loans created or assigned and recorded a liability of $0.1 million for the fair value of such MBS position.

The following table sets forth principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, effective weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of December 31, 2019. Because the mortgage repurchase facility is effectively secured by certain mortgage loans held for sale that are typically sold within 60 days, its outstanding balance is included in the most current period presented. The interest rate for our variable rate debt represents the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2019.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2019 were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files, furnishes, submits or otherwise provides the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, in such a manner as to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in lawsuits and other contingencies in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the liabilities arising from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, to the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds our estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matter, we could incur additional charges that could be significant.

In fiscal 2013, our mortgage subsidiary was subpoenaed by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) regarding the adequacy of certain underwriting and quality control processes related to Federal Housing Administration loans originated and sold in prior years. We have provided information related to these loans and our processes to the DOJ, and communications are ongoing. The DOJ has to date not asserted any formal claim amount, penalty or fine.

In May and July of 2014, we received Notices of Violation from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) related to stormwater compliance at certain of our sites in our Southeast region. This matter could potentially result in monetary sanctions to the Company; however, we do not believe it is reasonably possible that this matter would result in a loss that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We are participating in settlement discussions with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) and DOJ concerning alleged violations of the wetlands provisions of the Clean Water Act at a development site in our Southeast region relating to a violation notice the ACOE issued in April 2017. This matter could potentially result in a settlement that includes a penalty of approximately $350,000 without an admission of liability. We do not believe it is reasonably possible that this matter will result in a loss that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
