Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2020

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Non-GAAP Measures, page 41

 

1.

We have reviewed your response to comment one of our letter dated June 25, 2021. Please revise your non-GAAP measures to exclude purchase accounting adjustments. Reference is made to question 100.04 of the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation related to Non-GAAP Financial Measures.


Company Response:

In order to assist investors, evaluate our financial and operational results, we have historically included purchase accounting adjustments as a result of business combinations, as an adjustment to our Non-GAAP measures, including “adjusted income before income taxes,” “adjusted EBITDA,” and “adjusted home closings gross margin.”

Based on our discussions with the Staff, and further evaluation of question 100.04 of the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation related to Non-GAAP Financial Measures, we will exclude such purchase accounting adjustments from our Non-GAAP measures in future filings.

***

We appreciate the Staff’s comments and request the Staff contact the undersigned at 480-840-8116 or dcone@taylormorrison.com with any questions or comments regarding this letter.

 

Sincerely,
/s/ C. David Cone
