Rewritten

[removed: The] [added: Over the past several years, the] homebuilding industry [removed: has continued to experience] [added: experienced] a significant downturn as a result of low consumer confidence driven by an economic recession, high unemployment levels, affordability issues and uncertainty as to the stability of home prices.

Rewritten

As a result, we [removed: have] experienced reduced demand for new homes.

Rewritten

[removed: A continued] [added: The] downturn [added: experienced] in the homebuilding industry could have a material adverse effect on our sales either through fewer gross sales and/or higher cancellation rates, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability, stock performance, ability to service our debt obligations and future cash flows.

Rewritten

We sell all of the loans we originate into the secondary mortgage market generally within 30 [removed: to 60] days from origination.

Rewritten

This may result in [removed: a loss] [added: losses] which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability, stock performance, ability to service our debt obligations and future cash flows.

Rewritten

Our mortgage banking business sells all of the loans it originates into the secondary market usually within 30 [removed: to 60] days from the date of closing, and has up to approximately $25 million available in a repurchase agreement to fund mortgage closings.

Rewritten

In the event that [removed: other] disruptions to the secondary markets similar to [removed: this and to] those which occurred during 2007 and 2008 continue to tighten or eliminate the available liquidity within the secondary markets for mortgage loans, or the underwriting requirements by our secondary market investors continue to become more stringent, our ability to sell future mortgages could decline and we could be required, among other things, to fund our commitments to our buyers with our own financial resources, which is limited, or require our home buyers to find another source of financing.

Rewritten

In particular, approximately [removed: 35%] [added: 38%] of our home settlements during [removed: 2011] [added: 2012] occurred in the Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, MD metropolitan areas, which accounted for approximately [removed: 46%] [added: 47%] of our homebuilding revenues in [removed: 2011.][added: 2012.]

Rewritten

If we require working capital greater than that provided by our operations, we may be required to [removed: seek to] obtain alternative financing.

Rewritten

If we are required to seek financing to fund our working capital requirements, continued volatility in these markets [added: similar to that experienced in the past several years] may restrict our flexibility to access financing.

Rewritten

We are subject to various local, state and federal statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations concerning zoning, building design, construction and similar matters, including local regulations that impose restrictive zoning and density requirements in order to limit the number of homes that can eventually be built [removed: within the boundaries of a particular area.]

Rewritten

In addition, we have from time to time been subject to, and may also be subject in the future to, periodic delays in our homebuilding projects due to building moratoriums in the areas in which we [added: operate.]

Rewritten

[removed: Because these provisions are to be implemented through future rulemaking, the] [added: The] ultimate impact of such provisions on lending institutions, including our mortgage banking subsidiary, will depend on [removed: how] the [removed: implementing rules are written.][added: banking industry’s implementation of these new standards.]

Rewritten

We are an approved seller/servicer of FNMA mortgage loans and an approved [removed: lender/seller] [added: seller/issuer] of GNMA, FHLMC, VA and FHA mortgage loans, and are subject to all of those agencies’ rules and regulations.

Rewritten

The homebuilding business has from time to time experienced building material and labor shortages, [added: including shortages in insulation, drywall, certain carpentry work and concrete, as well as fluctuating lumber prices and supply.]

Rewritten

In addition, [removed: high employment levels and] strong construction market conditions could restrict the labor force available to our subcontractors and us in one or more of our markets.

New in FY2012

The homebuilding industry experienced a significant downturn over the past several years, which could continue to adversely affect our business and our results of operations.

New in FY2012

During 2012, we began to see signs of strengthening within the homebuilding industry with increasing sales and stabilization of selling prices in many markets.

New in FY2012

However, the housing market continues to face challenges from a tight mortgage lending environment and consumer confidence issues due to sustained high levels of unemployment.

New in FY2012

Our current indebtedness may impact our future operations.

New in FY2012

Our existing indebtedness contains restrictive covenants and any future indebtedness may also contain covenants.

New in FY2012

These covenants include, or could include, restrictions on our ability to create, incur, assume or guarantee secured debt, enter into sale and leaseback transactions and conditions related to mergers and/or the sale of assets.

New in FY2012

Substantial losses by us or other action or inaction by us or our subsidiaries could result in the violation of one or more of these covenants, which could result in decreased liquidity or a default on our current or future indebtedness, thereby having a material adverse effect on our sales, profitability, stock performance, ability to service our debt obligations and future cash flows.

New in FY2012

within the boundaries of a particular area.

New in FY2012

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued rules governing multiple issues in January 2013, including “Ability to Repay” underwriting provisions, appraisal standards, servicing and escrow rules, and loan officer compensation requirements.

Dropped from FY2011

The homebuilding industry continues to experience a significant downturn.

Dropped from FY2011

The continuation of this slowdown could adversely affect our business and our results of operations.

Dropped from FY2011

Additionally, the tightening credit markets have made it more difficult for customers to obtain financing to purchase homes.

Dropped from FY2011

These ongoing market factors have also resulted in pricing pressures and in turn gross profit margin pressure in all of our markets.

Dropped from FY2011

In October 2011, Bank of America discontinued their correspondent lending program.

Dropped from FY2011

As a result, this reduced the number of investors available in our loan sale distribution channels, increasing the loan volume of the remaining correspondent investors and in turn lengthening the time period it takes for us to sell loans and increasing our inventory of mortgages held for sale at December 31, 2011.

New in FY2012

Throughout 2012, the homebuilding market continued to experience a stabilization in prices and improving sales trends for new homes, after several years of declining home prices and sales.

New in FY2012

These favorable market conditions are driven by improved affordability levels resulting from historically low mortgage interest rates and rising costs in the rental market.

New in FY2012

In addition, certain markets have been favorably impacted by lower inventory levels.

New in FY2012

Despite these improvements, the housing market continues to face challenges from a tight mortgage lending environment, consumer confidence issues due to sustained high levels of unemployment and uncertainty as to the long-term sustainability of the economic recovery, which to this point has been uneven.

New in FY2012

Consolidated revenues totaled $3,184,650 for 2012, an increase of 20% from $2,659,149 in 2011.

New in FY2012

Net income for 2012 increased 40% from the prior year to $180,588.

New in FY2012

Diluted earnings per share in 2012 was $35.12, an increase of 53% from the prior year.

New in FY2012

On December 31, 2012, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Heartland Homes, Inc., the second largest homebuilder in the Pittsburgh, PA market.

New in FY2012

The acquisition added approximately 200 units and $81,600 to our backlog balance at the end of 2012.

New in FY2012

The acquisition did not impact our sales or settlements for 2012.

New in FY2012

Heartland Homes settled approximately 400 homes during 2012.

New in FY2012

Although there were signs in 2012 that the housing market has begun to recover, we believe that continued growth in sales and prices will be reliant on a sustained overall economic recovery and higher consumer confidence levels.

New in FY2012

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued rules governing multiple issues in January 2013, including “Ability to Repay” underwriting provisions, appraisal standards, servicing and escrow rules, and loan officer compensation requirements.

New in FY2012

Additional rulemaking is expected within the next couple of months.

New in FY2012

Homebuilding revenues for 2012 increased 20% from 2011, as a result of a 16% increase in the number of homes settled and a 3% increase in the average settlement price year over year.

New in FY2012

The increase in the number of homes settled was attributable to an 18% increase in new orders during the first half of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, coupled with a 26% higher beginning backlog unit balance entering 2012 as compared to 2011.

New in FY2012

These increases were offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate in 2012 compared to 2011.

New in FY2012

Average settlement prices in the current year were favorably impacted primarily by a 7% higher average sales price of new orders during the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, offset partially by a 4% lower average price of homes in backlog entering 2012 compared to the average price of homes in backlog entering 2011.

New in FY2012

New orders and the average sales price of new orders in 2012 increased 18% and 8%, respectively, when compared to 2011.

New in FY2012

New orders and the average new order selling prices were higher year over year in each of our market segments.

New in FY2012

The increase in new orders was driven by a 5% increase in the number of active communities year over year and by improved absorption rates in many of our markets.

New in FY2012

As discussed in the _Overview_ section above, we believe this increase as well as the increase in the average new order selling prices is attributable to lower housing inventory, improved affordability and a stabilization of housing prices in certain of our markets.

New in FY2012

Gross profit margins in 2012 increased to 17.5% from 17.1% in 2011.

New in FY2012

Margins were favorably impacted in 2012 by a $2,000 recovery of contract land deposits previously determined to be uncollectible compared to an $11,200 contract land deposit impairment charge in 2011.

New in FY2012

In addition, the aforementioned increased settlement volume and higher average settlement prices in 2012 allowed us to better leverage certain operating costs.

New in FY2012

However, this favorable impact was offset by higher construction, lumber and certain other commodity costs year over year.

New in FY2012

SG&A expenses in 2012 increased approximately $36,900, or 14%, compared to 2011, but as a percentage of revenue decreased to 9.7% in 2012 from 10.1% in the prior year.

New in FY2012

The increase in SG&A expense was attributable to an increase of approximately $19,700 in management incentive costs driven by our improved financial results.

New in FY2012

In addition, personnel costs and sales and marketing costs, were approximately $9,400 and $6,400 higher, respectively, in the current year due primarily to the 5% increase in the number of active communities year over year.

New in FY2012

SG&A expenses decreased as a percentage of revenue due to the aforementioned 20% increase in revenues year over year.

New in FY2012

Backlog units and dollars increased approximately 35% to 4,979 and 49% to $1,723,914, respectively, as of December 31, 2012, compared to 3,676 and $1,160,879 as of December 31, 2011.

New in FY2012

The increase in backlog units was primarily attributable to new orders being approximately 800 units higher for the six month period ended December 31, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, coupled with a slower backlog turnover rate in 2012.

New in FY2012

In addition, as mentioned in the _Overview_ section above, the December 31, 2012 acquisition of Heartland Homes added approximately 200 units and $81,600 to our current year-end backlog.

New in FY2012

The increase in backlog dollars is attributable to the increase in units and to a 9% higher average selling price for new orders for the six month period ended December 31, 2012.

Dropped from FY2011

The homebuilding environment remained challenging throughout 2011 as it continued to be impacted by the economic downturn and uncertainty that has been experienced over the past several years.

Dropped from FY2011

The sluggish economy and high unemployment rates continue to weigh on consumer confidence and in turn, suppress housing demand.

Dropped from FY2011

In addition, new home sales and selling prices continue to be pressured by market uncertainty surrounding home prices and by a more restrictive mortgage lending environment.

Dropped from FY2011

Consolidated revenues totaled $2,659,149 for 2011, a decrease of 13% from $3,041,892 in 2010.

Dropped from FY2011

Net income declined 37% to $129,420 in 2011 from the prior year and diluted earnings per share declined 31% to $23.01 year over year.

Dropped from FY2011

Further, our expectation of continued sales and pricing pressures has been factored into the impairment analysis of our homebuilding inventory, land under development and contract land deposits.

Dropped from FY2011

We assess our land under development, including land under development held in joint ventures, and contract land deposits each quarter for impairment on a community-by-community basis by considering, among other items, overall market and economic conditions, and analyzing, as applicable, current sales absorption levels and recent sales’ gross profit.

Dropped from FY2011

At this time, we do not believe that any of the land under development is impaired, and we consider the allowance for losses on contract land deposits reflected on the December 31, 2011 balance sheet to be adequate.

Dropped from FY2011

Further, we believe that our homebuilding inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market.

Dropped from FY2011

However, there can be no assurance that we will not incur impairment charges in the future due to unanticipated adverse changes in the economy or other events adversely affecting specific markets or the homebuilding industry.

Dropped from FY2011

Dropped from FY2011

Homebuilding revenues for 2010 increased 11% from 2009, as a result of an 11%, increase in the number of homes settled.

Dropped from FY2011

The increase in the number of homes settled was primarily attributable to the impact of the

Dropped from FY2011

federal homebuyer tax credit which resulted in strong first quarter sales and increased settlements through the second quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

In addition, the increase in settlements was also favorably impacted by a 12% higher beginning backlog unit balance entering 2010 compared to the same period in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

We expect to face continued sales and pricing pressure over the next several quarters until we see economic stability and improved consumer confidence levels.

New orders in 2010 remained flat with 2009 new orders, while the average sales price of new orders increased 4% year over year.

Dropped from FY2011

New orders remained flat despite a strong first quarter in 2010, driven we believe by the federal homebuyer tax credit, and increased sales in the Indianapolis, IN, Orlando, FL and Raleigh, NC markets, each of which began operations in the second half of 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

From the first quarter of 2010, we experienced a consistent decline in the number of new orders across all of our markets in each of the second, third and fourth quarters of 2010 compared to the respective periods in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

We expect to experience gross profit margin pressure over at least the next several quarters due to significant market uncertainties as discussed in the _Overview_ section above.

Dropped from FY2011

Gross profit margins in 2010 declined slightly to 18.2% from 18.5% in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

Gross profit margins in 2010 were negatively impacted by a contract land deposit impairment charge of approximately $4,300, or 14 basis points, while 2009 gross profit margins were favorably impacted by the recovery of approximately $6,500, or 24 basis points, of contract land deposits previously determined to be uncollectible.

Dropped from FY2011

SG&A expenses in 2010 increased approximately $24,200 compared to 2009, but remained flat as a percentage of revenue year over year.

Dropped from FY2011

The increase in SG&A expenses was attributable to an approximate $13,500 increase in stock-based compensation costs in 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, due to the grant of non-qualified stock options and restricted share units under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, offset partially by a reversal of approximately $6,600 in stock-based compensation expense previously recorded to

Dropped from FY2011

SG&A expense as we adjusted our stock option forfeiture estimates to our actual forfeiture experience.

Dropped from FY2011

SG&A expense was also higher due to an approximate $5,600 increase in management incentive costs as 2009 incentive plans were limited to payouts of 50% of incentive earned, while no similar restrictions were imposed on 2010 incentive compensation.

Dropped from FY2011

In addition, SG&A expenses were impacted by an approximate $7,600 increase in selling and marketing costs year over year due primarily to an approximate $5,700 increase in advertising and model home costs attributable in part to an increase in the average number of active communities to 371 communities in 2010 from 355 communities in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

Backlog units and dollars decreased approximately 17% to 2,916 and 11% to $958,287, respectively, as of December 31, 2010 compared to 3,531 and $1,076,437 as of December 31, 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

The decrease in backlog units was primarily attributable to the increased settlement activity in 2010 as discussed above.

_2010 versus 2009_

Dropped from FY2011

Revenues increased approximately $119,300, or 7%, in 2010 from 2009 on a 7% increase in the number of units settled.

Dropped from FY2011

The increase in units settled was attributable to the impact of the federal homebuyer tax credit which we believe resulted in higher first quarter sales and increased settlements through the second quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

In addition, 2010 settlements were also favorably impacted by a 5% higher beginning backlog unit balance entering 2010 as compared to 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

The segment’s gross profit margin percentage increased to 19.0% in 2010 from 18.5% in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

Segment profit and gross profit margins were favorably impacted by lower contract land deposit impairment charges in 2010 of $9,150, or 51 basis points, compared to $18,425, or 111 basis points in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

Revenues increased approximately $32,900, or 13%, in 2010 from 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

The increase in units settled was primarily attributable to the impact of the federal homebuyer tax credit which we believe resulted in higher first quarter sales and increased settlements through the second quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.

Dropped from FY2011

The increase in the average settlement price resulted from a product mix shift away from our attached products to our detached product, which generally sells at higher price points.

New in FY2012

Our homebuilding segment is exposed to interest rate risk as it relates to its debt obligations.

New in FY2012

In September 2012, we issued $600,000 of 3.95% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”).

New in FY2012

The Notes mature on September 15, 2022 and bear interest at 3.95%, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, commencing on March 15, 2013.

New in FY2012

Changes to interest rates generally affect the fair value of fixed-rate debt instruments, but not earnings or cash flows.

New in FY2012

We generally have no obligation to prepay the Notes prior to maturity, and thus interest rate fluctuations should not have a significant impact on our fixed-rate debt.

New in FY2012

During the current year, the homebuilding market continued to experience a stabilization in prices and improving sales trends.

New in FY2012

These favorable market conditions are driven by improved housing affordability levels resulting from historically low mortgage interest rates and rising costs in the rental market.

Despite these improvements, the homebuilding environment continues to face challenges from a tight mortgage lending environment, consumer confidence issues due to sustained high levels of unemployment and uncertainties as to the sustainability of the economic recovery.
