For the six months ended March 31, 2010, the Company reported net income of $203.4 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $171.1 million, or $0.54 per diluted share in the same period of fiscal 2009. The six-month results included a tax benefit of $148.6 million, compared to a tax provision of $6.8 million in the same period of the prior year.

Homes closed in the six-month period increased 28% to 9,789 homes, from 7,653 homes closed in the same period of fiscal 2009.

 

 

 

Net sales orders for the second quarter increased 55% to 6,438 homes ($1.3 billion), from 4,160 homes ($844.5 million) in the same quarter of fiscal 2009. The Company’s cancellation rate (cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders) for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 was 21%. Net sales orders for the first six months of fiscal 2010 increased 51% to 10,475 homes ($2.2 billion), from 6,937 homes ($1.4 billion) in the same period of fiscal 2009. The Company’s sales order backlog of homes under contract at March 31, 2010 increased 38% to 6,314 homes ($1.3 billion), from 4,581 homes ($963.0 million) at March 31, 2009.
The Company’s homebuilding unrestricted cash and marketable securities at March 31, 2010 totaled $1.8 billion. Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of fiscal 2010 was $427.8 million, which was primarily due to the federal income tax refunds received during the period.
During the second quarter, the Company repaid the outstanding principal of $130.9 million of its 4.875% senior notes at their maturity in January, and it redeemed the remaining $95.0 million of its 5.875% senior notes due 2013 in February. Also during the quarter, the Company repurchased a total of $139.4 million principal amount of its outstanding senior notes. Fiscal year-to-date homebuilding debt reductions total $524.8 million.
The Company has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per share. The dividend is payable on May 24, 2010 to stockholders of record on May 14, 2010.
Donald R. Horton, Chairman of the Board, said, “We are pleased to report a quarterly profit for the second consecutive quarter. Our homes closed increased 19% over the prior year while our homes gross margin improved 90 basis points sequentially to 18.0%. Our homebuilding SG&A dollars increased only 1% from the year ago quarter while homebuilding revenues increased 16%. Our balance sheet remains strong with homebuilding cash and marketable securities of $1.8 billion and net homebuilding leverage improving to 22.2%.

 

 

 

“Our focus on providing affordable homes enabled us to take advantage of the spring selling season demand, resulting in 6,438 net sales orders for the quarter, an increase of 55% from the year ago quarter and 59% sequentially.
“Market conditions in the homebuilding industry are still challenging, with rising foreclosures, significant existing home inventory levels, high unemployment, tight mortgage lending standards, the expiration of certain government support for the housing and mortgage markets and weak consumer confidence. However, new home inventory remains low, interest rates are favorable and housing affordability is near record highs. We will continue to focus on providing affordable homes for the first-time buyer, controlling our costs and contracting for new communities with attractively priced finished lots while maintaining our strong balance sheet.”
The Company will host a conference call today (Friday, April 30th) at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time. The dial-in number is 877-407-0778, and the call will also be webcast from www.drhorton.com on the “Investor Relations” page.

Portions of this document may constitute “forward-looking statements” as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although D.R. Horton believes any such statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that actual outcomes will not be materially different. All forward-looking statements are based upon information available to D.R. Horton on the date this release was issued. D.R.

focus on providing affordable homes for the first-time buyer, controlling our costs, contracting for communities with attractively priced finished lots and maintaining a strong balance sheet. Factors that may cause the actual results to be materially different from the future results expressed by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the continuing downturn in the homebuilding industry, including further deterioration in industry or broader economic conditions; the continuing constriction of the credit markets, which could limit our ability to access capital and increase our costs of capital; the reduction in availability of mortgage financing, increases in mortgage interest rates and the effects of expiring government programs, such as the homebuyer federal tax credit scheduled to end in our third quarter of fiscal 2010; the limited success of our strategies in responding to adverse conditions in the industry; a return of an inflationary environment; changes in general economic, real estate and other business conditions; the risks associated with our inventory ownership position in changing market conditions; supply risks for land, materials and labor; changes in the costs of owning a home; the effects of governmental regulations and environmental matters on our homebuilding operations; the effects of governmental regulation on our financial services operations; the uncertainties inherent in home warranty and construction defect claims matters; our substantial debt and our ability to comply with related debt covenants, restrictions and limitations; competitive conditions within our industry; our ability to effect any future growth strategies successfully; our ability to realize our deferred tax asset; and the utilization of our tax losses could be substantially limited if we experienced an ownership change as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. Additional information about issues that could lead to material changes in performance is contained in D.R. Horton’s current report on Form 8-K dated February 8, 2010, which updated our annual report on Form 10-K, and our most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q, all which are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
