M.D.C. Holdings Announces 2017 Fourth Quarter And Full Year Results

DENVER, Feb. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- M.D.C. Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: MDC) announced results for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2017.

Larry A. Mizel, MDC's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our strong performance in the 2017 full year is evidenced not only by double-digit percentage increases for home sale revenues and net income, but also by the steps we took to strengthen our financial position, enhance shareholder value, and prepare for future growth."

Mr. Mizel continued, "During the year, we added $150 million to our senior notes due January 2043, bringing the total amount outstanding to $500 million. In doing so, we pushed our average senior note maturity to almost 15 years, a strong advantage as interest rates start to rise. In addition, we expanded the capacity under our unsecured line of credit from $550 million to $700 million and extended its maturity to December 2022. We ended the year with liquidity of $1.25 billion, an increase of nearly 40% over the prior year, which provides us with additional resources to fund our future growth. Already, our plans for expansion are well underway, as shown by the nearly 10,400 lots we approved during 2017 for purchase, which was more than double our total in 2016."

Mr. Mizel concluded, "We ended the year on a strong note, with fourth quarter net home orders surging 23% year-over-year. We believe the robust demand is not only the result of solid economic fundamentals, but also our focus on affordable product. At the center of our emphasis on affordability is our SeasonsTM collection, which accounted for 15% of our fourth quarter net orders. Because of our strong sales performance, our yearend backlog value is 16% higher than a year ago, setting the stage for growth in 2018. Given our positive outlook and strong financial position, we enhanced our industry-leading dividend program with an 8% stock dividend in the fourth quarter and a 20% increase in our cash dividend declared at the start of the 2018 first quarter, reflecting our confidence in the prospects for growth against the backdrop of solid industry conditions."

Net income for the 2017 fourth quarter was $24.6 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, versus $40.4 million, or $0.72 per diluted share* for the 2016 fourth quarter. Net income for the 2017 full year was $141.8 million, or $2.48 per diluted share, versus $103.2 million, or $1.85 per diluted share*, for the 2016 full year. Net income and diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2017 were impacted by the following tax-related items:

  • The enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017, which required a remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax assets, resulted in a charge of $10.0 million for both the 2017 fourth quarter and full year.
  • The Company's January 1, 2017 adoption of Accounting Standard Update 2016-09, which resulted in the Company recognizing an income tax charge of $2.8 million related to tax deficiencies from stock option expirations for both the 2017 fourth quarter and full year.
  • The Company realized income tax benefits of $3.5 million for the 2017 fourth quarter and $7.2 million for the 2017 full year from the release of a portion of its deferred tax asset valuation allowance relating to the sale and valuation of certain assets.
