Management Comments
"This has been an extraordinary year for LGI Homes," said Eric Lipar, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. "Our fourth quarter results provided a solid finish to 2013. Record-setting closings during the fourth quarter and for the full year demonstrated our ability to successfully execute on our growth plan, continuing our trend of strong results and profitability during our 10 years of operations."
"Building on the momentum of the last two years, we begin 2014 with a strong balance sheet and a favorable outlook. We will remain focused on maintaining an appropriate supply of move-in ready homes to fuel our dynamic sales force, maximizing our return on capital through efficient build-times, our even-flow construction methodology, and steady inventory turnover to meet our goals and objectives for 2014."
"As we look ahead to 2015 and beyond, we recognize that our continued growth is the key driver to our success. We expect to grow by increasing community count in our core markets, introducing a diversified product mix and expanding into new geographic markets," Lipar concluded.
2013 Fourth Quarter Results
Setting a record for most home closings within a quarter, home closings during the fourth quarter of 2013 increased 57.8% to 505 from 320 during the fourth quarter of 2012. Active selling communities increased to 25 at the end of the fourth quarter of 2013, up from 22 at the end of the third quarter of 2013.
Home sales revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 increased 74.2% to $77.0 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase in home sales revenues is primarily due to the increase in the number of homes closed and an increase in the average home sales price.
The average home sales price was $152,469 for the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of 10.4% over the fourth quarter of 2012. This increase was primarily due to an improved pricing environment and shift in product mix with the successful introduction of the higher priced Great Lakes home series throughout select communities.
Adjusted gross margin as a percentage of home sales revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 decreased to 25.9% from 26.9% for the fourth quarter of 2012, primarily reflecting the net impact of higher average home sales prices offset by increased construction costs, higher developed lot costs, investments in new markets, and the transition between communities within existing markets. Please see "Non-GAAP Measures" for a reconciliation of adjusted gross margin to gross margin.
Earnings of $7.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, represent the net income for the period from November 13, 2013 (IPO completion date) to December 31, 2013, including the $6.4 million gain on remeasurement of interests in the LGI/GTIS Joint Ventures and cost of sales of $3.5 million related to the step up adjustment for homes acquired in the GTIS Acquisitions that were sold by December 31, 2013.
2013 Full Year Results
Home closings reached an all-time high for the year ended December 31, 2013, increasing 52.3% to 1,617, far surpassing the previous record of 1,062 from 2012. Active selling communities increased by 10 communities during 2013 and totaled 25 active selling communities at the end of the year. During 2013, the Company successfully expanded into the Tampa, Orlando and Atlanta markets.
Home sales revenues for 2013 were $241.0 million, an increase of $97.6 million, or 68.1%, from $143.4 million for 2012. The increase in home sales revenues is primarily due to the increase in homes closed and an increase in the average home sales price.
The average home sales price during 2013 was $149,018, an increase of $14,010, or 10.4%, from the average home sales price of $135,008 for 2012. This increase was primarily due to an improved pricing environment and shift in product mix.
Adjusted gross margin as a percentage of home sales revenues for 2013 decreased slightly to 27.3% from 28.0% for 2012, primarily reflecting the net impact of higher average home sales prices offset by increased construction costs, higher developed lot costs, investments in new markets, and the transition between communities within existing markets. Please see "Non-GAAP Measures" for a reconciliation of adjusted gross margin to gross margin.
Outlook
Subject to the caveats in the Forward-Looking Statements section of this press release, the Company offers the following limited guidance. The Company believes it will have 36 active selling communities at the end of 2014 and close 2,200 homes during the year. This outlook assumes that general economic and mortgage availability conditions in 2014 are similar to those in 2013.
Background
Prior to the completion of the Company's initial public offering (the "IPO"), the Company's predecessor owned a 15% equity interest in and managed the day-to-day operations of four joint venture entities (the "LGI/GTIS Joint Ventures"). Concurrent with the IPO, the Company acquired all of the equity interests in the LGI/GTIS Joint Ventures that it did not own immediately prior to the IPO (the "GTIS Acquisitions"). The financial statements present the predecessor's historical interests in the LGI/GTIS Joint Ventures using the equity method and the predecessor's share of the LGI/GTIS Joint Ventures' net earnings are included in income from unconsolidated joint ventures. Effective November 13, 2013, the Company owns all of the equity interests in the LGI/GTIS Joint Ventures and accounts for them on a consolidated basis after such date.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data is presented for informational purposes only and does not purport to represent what the results of operations would have been had the GTIS Acquisitions actually occurred on the dates indicated and does not purport to project the results of operations for any future period.
A step-up of approximately $7.4 million was recorded to the real estate inventory in connection with the GTIS Acquisitions of which approximately $3.5 million was charged to cost of sales during the period November 13, 2013 to December 31, 2013 related to homes in inventory at November 13, 2013 that were sold by December 31, 2013. The pro forma adjustments do not reflect additional cost of sales related to the step-up adjustment since the step-up does not have a continuing impact on the Company's results of operations due to the short-term impact on financial performance.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data is presented for informational purposes only and does not purport to represent what the results of operations would have been had the GTIS Acquisitions actually occurred on the date indicated and does not purport to project the results of operations for any future period.
A step-up of approximately $7.4 million was recorded to the real estate inventory in connection with the GTIS Acquisitions of which approximately $3.5 million was charged to cost of sales during the period November 13, 2013 to December 31, 2013 related to homes in inventory at November 13, 2013 that were sold by December 31, 2013. The pro forma adjustments do not reflect additional cost of sales related to the step-up adjustment since the step-up does not have a continuing impact on the Company's results of operations due to the short-term impact on financial performance.

LGI HOMES, INC.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data is presented for informational purposes only and does not purport to represent what the results of operations would have been had the GTIS Acquisitions actually occurred on the date indicated and does not purport to project the results of operations for any future period.
A step-up of approximately $7.4 million was recorded to the real estate inventory in connection with the GTIS Acquisitions of which approximately $3.5 million was charged to cost of sales during the period November 13, 2013 to December 31, 2013 related to homes in inventory at November 13, 2013 that were sold by December 31, 2013. The pro forma adjustments do not reflect additional cost of sales related to the step-up adjustment since the step-up does not have a continuing impact on the Company's results of operations due to the short-term impact on financial performance.

Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this press release contains the non-GAAP financial measure adjusted gross margin. The reason for the use of this measure, a reconciliation of this measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and other information relating to this measure are included below.
Adjusted gross margin
Adjusted gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management as a supplemental measure in evaluating operating performance. The Company defines adjusted gross margin as gross margin less capitalized interest and excluding adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting included in the cost of sales. Management believes this information is useful because it isolates the impact that capitalized interest and purchase accounting adjustments have on gross margin. However, because adjusted gross margin information excludes capitalized interest and purchase accounting adjustments, which have real economic effects and could impact results, the utility of adjusted gross margin information as a measure of operating performance may be limited. In addition, other companies may not calculate adjusted gross margin information in the same manner. Accordingly, adjusted gross margin information should be considered only as a supplement to gross margin information as a measure of performance.
The following table reconciles adjusted gross margin to gross margin, which is the GAAP financial measure that management believes to be most directly comparable (dollars in thousands):
