M/I Homes had 209 active communities at December 31, 2018 compared to 188 a year ago. The Company’s cancellation rate was 18% in 2018’s fourth quarter and 15% for the year.

Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “2018 was a strong year for M/I Homes, highlighted by record levels of revenue, homes delivered, and new contracts, along with a 17% increase in pre-tax income and a 49% increase in net income. While our fourth quarter results also featured a record number of homes delivered and record revenue, the 4% decline we experienced in our new contracts reflected more challenging housing conditions and affordability pressures. These conditions also impacted our gross margins, though we are pleased with the 70 basis point improvement in our annual overhead expense ratio.”

Mr. Schottenstein continued, “Our homebuilding debt to capital ratio at year-end was 44%. During the second half of the year, we repurchased 1.07 million of our common shares. Though housing conditions continue to be choppy, we enter 2019 with a very strong backlog and balance sheet, and are well positioned for the year with a significant number of planned new community openings.”
