Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands except per share data)
1. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NVR, Inc. (NVR or the Company) and its subsidiaries and certain other entities in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary (see Note 3 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Because the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP, they should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals except as otherwise noted herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, comprehensive income equaled net income; therefore, a separate statement of comprehensive income is not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
2. | Variable Interest Entities |
Fixed Price Purchase Agreements
NVR generally does not engage in the land development business. Instead, the Company typically acquires finished building lots at market prices from various development entities under fixed price purchase agreements. The purchase agreements require deposits that may be forfeited if NVR fails to perform under the agreement. The deposits required under the purchase agreements are in the form of cash or letters of credit in varying amounts, and typically range up to 10% of the aggregate purchase price of the finished lots.
NVR believes this lot acquisition strategy reduces the financial requirements and risks associated with direct land ownership and land development. NVR may, at its option, choose for any reason and at any time not to perform under these purchase agreements by delivering notice of its intent not to acquire the finished lots under contract. NVRs sole legal obligation and economic loss for failure to perform under these purchase agreements is limited to the amount of the deposit pursuant to the liquidated damage provisions contained within the purchase agreements. In other words, if NVR does not perform under a purchase agreement, NVR loses only its deposit. None of the creditors of any of the development entities with which NVR enters fixed price purchase agreements have recourse to the general credit of NVR. NVR generally does not have any specific performance obligations to purchase a certain number or any of the lots, nor does NVR guarantee completion of the development by the developer or guarantee any of the developers financial or other liabilities.
NVR is not involved in the design or creation of any of the development entities from which the Company purchases lots under fixed price purchase agreements. The developers equity holders have the power to direct 100% of the operating activities of the development entity. NVR has no voting rights in any of the development entities. The sole purpose of the development entitys activities is to generate positive cash flow returns to its equity holders. Further, NVR does not share in any of the profit or loss generated by the projects development. The profits and losses are passed directly to the developers equity holders.
7
NVR, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands except per share data)
The deposit placed by NVR pursuant to the fixed price purchase agreement is deemed to be a variable interest in the respective development entities. Those development entities are deemed to be variable interest entities (VIEs). Therefore, the development entities with which NVR enters fixed price purchase agreements, including the joint venture limited liability corporations, as discussed in Note 3 below, are evaluated for possible consolidation by NVR. An enterprise must consolidate a VIE when that enterprise has a controlling financial interest in the VIE. An enterprise is deemed to have a controlling financial interest if it has i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance, and ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE or the rights to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.
NVR believes the activities that most significantly impact a development entitys economic performance are the operating activities of the entity. Unless and until a development entity completes finished building lots through the development process to be able to sell, the process of which the development entities equity investors bear the full risk, the entity does not earn any revenues. The operating development activities are managed solely by the development entitys equity investors.
The development entities with which NVR contracts to buy finished lots typically select the respective projects, obtain the necessary zoning approvals, obtain the financing required with no support or guarantees from NVR, select who will purchase the finished lots and at what price, and manage the completion of the infrastructure improvements, all for the purpose of generating a cash flow return to the development entitys equity holders and all independent of NVR. The Company possesses no more than limited protective legal rights through the purchase agreement in the specific finished lots that it is purchasing, and NVR possesses no participative rights in the development entities. Accordingly, NVR does not have the power to direct the activities of a developer that most significantly impact the developers economic performance. For this reason, NVR has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of the development entities with which the Company enters fixed price purchase agreements, and therefore, NVR does not consolidate any of these VIEs.
As of June 30, 2013, NVR controlled approximately 55,500 lots with deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $268,900 and $750, respectively. At December 31, 2012, NVR controlled approximately 53,200 lots under purchase agreements with deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $256,600 and $3,300, respectively. The contract land deposit asset is shown net of an approximate $61,200 and $65,000 impairment valuation allowance at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized a net pre-tax recovery of approximately $3,000 and $4,000, respectively, of contract land deposits previously determined to be uncollectible. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a net pre-tax recovery of approximately $100 and $1,200, respectively, of contract land deposits previously determined to be uncollectible. As noted above, NVRs sole legal obligation and economic loss for failure to perform under these purchase agreements is limited to the amount of the deposit pursuant to the liquidated damage provisions contained within the purchase agreements and in very limited circumstances, specific performance obligations. NVRs total risk of loss related to contract land deposits as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, was as follows:

(1) | At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company was committed to purchase 36 and 71 finished lots under specific performance obligations, respectively. |
3. | Joint Ventures |
On a limited basis, NVR also obtains finished lots using joint venture limited liability corporations (JVs). All JVs are typically structured such that NVR is a non-controlling member and is at risk only for the amount the Company has invested, in addition to any deposits placed under fixed price purchase agreements with the JV. NVR is not a borrower, guarantor or obligor on any debt of the JVs, as applicable. The Company enters into a standard fixed price purchase agreement to purchase lots from these JVs, and as a result has a variable interest in these JVs.
At June 30, 2013, the Company had an aggregate investment totaling approximately $90,800 in three JVs that are expected to produce approximately 7,500 finished lots, of which approximately 2,700 were not under contract with NVR. During the first quarter of 2013, NVR invested an additional $11,000 in the Companys existing joint venture with Morgan Stanley Real Estate Investing. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of two of the JVs because NVR and the other JV partner either share power or the other JV partner has the controlling financial interest. The aggregate investment in these two JVs was approximately $84,500 and is reported in the Other assets, net line item on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the remaining JV, NVR has concluded that it is the primary beneficiary because the Company has the controlling financial interest in the JV. Accordingly, NVR consolidates this JV. The condensed balance sheets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, of the consolidated JV were as follows:

directly acquired a raw parcel of land zoned for its intended use for approximately $28,500 that it intends to develop into approximately 400 finished lots for use in its homebuilding operations. As of June 30, 2013, NVR directly owned four separate raw parcels of land with a carrying value of $87,570 that it intends to develop into approximately 950 finished lots for use in its homebuilding operations. None of the raw parcels had any indicators of impairment as of June 30, 2013. Based on current market conditions, NVR may, on a very limited basis, directly acquire additional raw parcels to develop into finished lots. See the Overview section of Item 2, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein for additional discussion.
5. | Capitalized Interest |
The Company capitalizes interest costs to land under development during the active development of finished lots. Capitalized interest is transferred to sold or unsold inventory as the development of finished lots is completed, then charged to cost of sales upon the Companys settlement of homes and the respective lots. Interest incurred during the period in excess of the interest capitalizable based on the level of qualified assets is expensed in the period incurred. NVRs interest costs incurred, capitalized, expensed and charged to cost of sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was as follows:

7. | Equity-Based Compensation Expense |
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company issued 35,491 restricted share units (RSUs) and 103,074 non-qualified stock options (Options) from the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (2010 Equity Plan). Substantially all of the RSUs, which were issued in May 2013, will vest 100% on December 31, 2015, based on continued employment or continued service as a Director, as applicable. The Options were granted at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Companys common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the day prior to the date of grant. Substantially all of the Options granted vest annually in 25% increments beginning on December 31, 2015, based solely on continued employment or continued service as a Director, as applicable. The Options expire 10 years from the date of grant.
To estimate the grant-date fair value of its stock options, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model estimates the per share fair value of an option on its date of grant based on the following factors: the options exercise price; the price of the underlying stock on the date of grant; the estimated dividend yield; a risk-free interest rate; the estimated option term; and the expected volatility. For the risk-free interest rate, the Company uses a U.S. Treasury Strip due in a number of years equal to the options expected term. NVR has concluded that its historical exercise experience is the best estimate of future exercise patterns to determine an options expected term. To estimate expected volatility, NVR analyzed the historic volatility of its common stock over a period equal to the options expected term. The fair value of the Options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the following assumptions:
Estimated average option life (years) |
5.29 | |
Risk free interest rate (range) |
0.42% - 1.42% | |
Expected volatility (range) |
17.98% - 32.72% | |
Expected dividend rate |
0.00% | |
Grant-date fair value per share of options granted |
$278.41 |
In accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, the fair value of the non-vested equity shares is measured as if they were vested and issued on the grant date. Additionally, under ASC 718, service only restrictions on vesting of non-vested equity shares are not reflected in the fair value calculation at the grant date. As a result, the fair value of the RSUs was the closing price of the Companys common stock on the day immediately preceding the date of grant. The weighted average fair value of the RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $997.66 per share.
Compensation cost for Options and RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award (from the date of grant through the period of the last separately vesting portion of the grant). For the recognition of equity-based compensation, the RSUs are treated as a separate award from the Options. Compensation cost is recognized within the income statement in the same expense line as the cash compensation paid to the respective employees or directors. ASC 718 also requires the Company to estimate forfeitures in calculating the expense related to stock-based compensation and requires that the compensation costs of stock-based awards be recognized net of estimated forfeitures. Total stock based compensation expense, net of forfeitures, recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $10,589 and $16,733, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $18,652 and $33,173, respectively.

8. | Excess Reorganization Value, Goodwill and Other Intangibles |
Reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets (excess reorganization value) is an indefinite-lived intangible asset that was created upon NVRs emergence from bankruptcy on September 30, 1993. Based on the allocation of the reorganization value, the portion of the reorganization value which was not attributed to specific tangible or intangible assets has been reported as excess reorganization value, which is treated similarly to goodwill. Excess reorganization value is not subject to amortization. Rather, excess reorganization value is subject to an impairment assessment on an annual basis or more frequently if changes in events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. Because excess reorganization value was based on the reorganization value of NVRs entire enterprise upon bankruptcy emergence, the impairment assessment is conducted on an enterprise basis based on the comparison of NVRs total equity compared to the market value of NVRs outstanding publicly-traded common stock.
On December 31, 2012, NVR acquired substantially all of the assets of Heartland Homes, Inc. The acquisition resulted in NVR recording finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill in the amounts of $8,778 and $441, respectively. The finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average life of 5 years. Accumulated amortization related to the finite-lived intangible assets was $925 as of June 30, 2013.
The Company completed the annual impairment assessment of the excess reorganization value and goodwill during the first quarter of 2013 and determined that there was no impairment of either asset.

10. | Product Warranties |
The Company establishes warranty and product liability reserves (warranty reserve) to provide for estimated future expenses as a result of construction and product defects, product recalls and litigation incidental to NVRs homebuilding business. Liability estimates are determined based on managements judgment, considering such factors as historical experience, the likely current cost of corrective action, manufacturers and subcontractors participation in sharing the cost of corrective action, consultations with third party experts such as engineers, and discussions with the Companys general counsel and outside counsel retained to handle specific product liability cases. The following table reflects the changes in the Companys warranty reserve during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

The warranty reserve provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 includes a charge of approximately $15,600 to establish an accrual related to remediation of primarily water infiltration issues in a single completed community. The water infiltration issues were the result of a design issue with several products developed for and built exclusively in that one specific community.
11. | Segment Disclosures |
The following disclosure includes four homebuilding reportable segments that aggregate geographically the Companys homebuilding operating segments, and the mortgage banking operations presented as a single reportable segment. The homebuilding reportable segments are comprised of operating divisions in the following geographic areas:
Homebuilding Mid Atlantic Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware and Washington, D.C.
Homebuilding North East New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania
Homebuilding Mid East New York, Ohio, western Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois
Homebuilding South East North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Tennessee
Homebuilding profit before tax includes all revenues and income generated from the sale of homes, less the cost of homes sold, selling, general and administrative expenses, and a corporate capital allocation charge. The corporate capital allocation charge eliminates in consolidation, is based on the segments average net assets employed, and is charged using a consistent methodology in the periods presented. The corporate capital allocation charged to the operating segment allows the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to determine whether the operating segments results are providing the desired rate of return after covering the Companys cost of capital. In addition, certain assets including goodwill and intangible assets, and consolidation adjustments as discussed further below, are not allocated to the operating segments as those assets are not included in the operating segments corporate capital allocation charge, nor in the CODMs evaluation of the operating segments performance. The Company records charges on contract land deposits when it is determined that it is probable that recovery of the deposit is impaired. For segment reporting purposes, impairments on contract land deposits are charged to the operating segment upon the determination to terminate a finished lot purchase agreement with the developer, or to restructure a lot purchase agreement

resulting in the forfeiture of the deposit. Mortgage banking profit before tax consists of revenues generated from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the costs of such services and general and administrative costs. Mortgage banking operations are not charged a capital allocation charge.
In addition to the corporate capital allocation and contract land deposit impairments discussed above, the other reconciling items between segment profit and consolidated profit before tax include unallocated corporate overhead (including all management incentive compensation), equity-based compensation expense, consolidation adjustments and external corporate interest expense. NVRs overhead functions, such as accounting, treasury, human resources, etc., are centrally performed and the costs are not allocated to the Companys operating segments. Consolidation adjustments consist of such items necessary to convert the reportable segments results, which are predominantly maintained on a cash basis, to a full accrual basis for external financial statement presentation purposes, and are not allocated to the Companys operating segments. Likewise, equity-based compensation expense is not charged to the operating segments. External corporate interest expense is primarily comprised of interest charges on the Companys 3.95% Senior Notes due 2022 and is not charged to the operating segments because the charges are included in the corporate capital allocation discussed above.
Following are tables presenting segment revenues, profit and assets, with reconciliations to the amounts reported for the consolidated enterprise, where applicable:

(1) | This item represents changes to the contract land deposit impairment reserve, which are not allocated to the reportable segments. |
(2) | Equity-based compensation expense is lower for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 due to restricted share units issued in 2010 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan becoming fully vested effective December 31, 2012. This reduction was partially offset by equity-based compensation expense incurred in 2013 related to RSUs issued in May 2013 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. |
(3) | This item represents the elimination of the corporate capital allocation charge included in the respective homebuilding reportable segments. The corporate capital allocation charge is based on the segments monthly average asset balance, and was as follows for the periods presented: |

(4) | The change in unallocated corporate overhead in the three and six month periods of 2013 was primarily attributable to higher employee costs related to increased headcount period over period. |
(5) | The increase in consolidation adjustments and other in 2013 from 2012 was primarily attributable to changes in the corporate consolidation entries based on production and settlement volumes in the respective periods. |
(6) | The increase in corporate interest expense in 2013 from 2012 was attributable to the issuance of 3.95% Senior Notes due 2022 in the third quarter of 2012. |

12. | Fair Value |
Financial Instruments
The estimated fair value of NVRs 3.95% Senior Notes due 2022 as of June 30, 2013 was $583,500. The estimated fair value is based on recent market prices of similar transactions, which is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value was $599,031 at June 30, 2013. Except as otherwise noted below, NVR believes that insignificant differences exist between the carrying value and the fair value of its financial instruments, which consists of cash equivalents, due to their short term nature.
Derivative Instruments and Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
In the normal course of business, the Companys mortgage banking segment, NVR Mortgage Finance, Inc. (NVRM), enters into contractual commitments to extend credit to buyers of single-family homes with fixed expiration dates. The commitments become effective when the borrowers lock-in a specified interest rate within time frames established by NVR. All mortgagors are evaluated for credit worthiness prior to the extension of the commitment. Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time of the lock-in of rates by the borrower and the sale date of the loan to a broker/dealer. To mitigate the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing rate lock commitments to borrowers, the Company enters into optional or mandatory delivery forward sale contracts to sell whole loans and mortgage-backed securities to broker/dealers. The forward sale contracts lock in an interest rate and price for the sale of loans similar to the specific rate lock commitments. NVR does not engage in speculative or trading derivative activities. Both the rate lock commitments to borrowers and the forward sale contracts to broker/dealers are undesignated derivatives and, accordingly, are marked to fair value through earnings. At June 30, 2013, there were contractual commitments to extend credit to borrowers aggregating $317,781 and open forward delivery contracts aggregating $467,921.
GAAP assigns a fair value hierarchy to the inputs used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. The fair value of the Companys rate lock commitments to borrowers and the related input levels includes, as applicable:
i) | the assumed gain/loss of the expected resultant loan sale (level 2); |
ii) | the effects of interest rate movements between the date of the rate lock and the balance sheet date (level 2); and |
iii) | the value of the servicing rights associated with the loan (level 2). |
The assumed gain/loss considers the amount, if any, that the Company has discounted the price to the borrower from par for competitive reasons and the excess servicing to be received or buydown fees to be paid upon securitization of the loan. The excess servicing and buydown fees are calculated pursuant to contractual terms with investors. To calculate the effects of interest rate movements, the Company utilizes applicable published mortgage-backed security prices, and multiplies the price movement between the rate lock date and the balance sheet date by the notional loan commitment amount. The Company sells all of its loans on a servicing released basis, and receives a servicing released premium upon sale. Thus, the value of the servicing rights, which averaged 80 basis points of the loan amount as of June 30, 2013, is included in the fair value measurement and is based upon contractual terms with investors and varies depending on the loan type. The Company assumes an approximate 9% fallout rate when measuring the fair value of rate lock commitments. Fallout is defined as locked loan commitments for which the Company does not close a mortgage loan and is based on historical experience.

(dollars in thousands except per share data)
The fair value of the Companys forward sales contracts to broker/dealers solely considers the market price movement of the same type of security between the trade date and the balance sheet date (level 2). The market price changes are multiplied by the notional amount of the forward sales contracts to measure the fair value.
Mortgage loans held for sale are recorded at fair value when closed, and thereafter are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, net of deferred origination costs, until sold. Fair value is measured using level 2 inputs. The fair value of loans held for sale of $176,285 included on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet has been reduced by $9,230 from the aggregate principal balance of $185,515.
The undesignated derivative instruments are included on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as follows:

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, NVRM recorded a fair value adjustment to income of $2,481 and $79, respectively. Unrealized gains from the change in the fair value measurements are included in earnings as a component of mortgage banking fees in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. The fair value measurement will be impacted in the future by the change in the value of the servicing rights, interest rate movements, security price fluctuations, and the volume and product mix of the Companys closed loans and locked loan commitments.

NVRM provides for its mortgage origination and other operating activities using cash generated from operations, borrowings from its parent company, NVR, as well as a revolving mortgage repurchase agreement (the Repurchase Agreement), which is non-recourse to NVR. The Repurchase Agreement provides for loan purchases up to $25,000, subject to certain sub-limits. At June 30, 2013, there was no outstanding debt under the Repurchase Agreement. Amounts outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement are collateralized by the Companys mortgage loans held for sale. As of June 30, 2013, there were no borrowing base limitations reducing the amount available for borrowings under the Repurchase Agreement. The Repurchase Agreement was renewed with materially consistent terms and conditions and expires on July 30, 2014.
14. | Commitments and Contingencies |
On July 18, 2007, former and current employees filed lawsuits against the Company in the Court of Common Pleas in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania and Hamilton County, Ohio, in Superior Court in Durham County, North Carolina, and in the Circuit Court in Montgomery County, Maryland, and on July 19, 2007 in the Superior Court in New Jersey, alleging that the Company incorrectly classified its sales and marketing representatives as being exempt from overtime wages. These lawsuits are similar in nature to another lawsuit filed on October 29, 2004 by another former employee in the United States District Court for the Western District of New York captioned Tracy v. NVR, Inc. The lawsuits filed in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey and North Carolina have been stayed pending further developments in the Tracy action.
The complaints described above seek injunctive relief, an award of unpaid wages, including fringe benefits, liquidated damages equal to the overtime wages allegedly due and not paid, attorney and other fees and interest, and where available, multiple damages. While the suits were filed as purported class actions, none of them have been certified as such. On April 29, 2013, the Western District of New York ruled that the claims asserted in the Tracy case were not appropriate for class action treatment and dismissed a number of individuals who had filed consents to join that action from the case. It is now scheduled for a trial on the remaining individual plaintiffs claims to commence in October 2013.
On May 29, 2013, attorneys representing the individuals dismissed from the Tracy action filed another lawsuit on behalf of those individuals in the New York Supreme Court for Monroe County captioned Anderson v. NVR, Inc. The Company removed the Anderson action to the Western District of New York on June 18, 2013. Plaintiffs subsequently filed a motion to stay the Anderson action pending final disposition of the Tracy action, which the Company intends to oppose.
The Company believes that its compensation practices in regard to sales and marketing representatives are entirely lawful and in compliance with two letter rulings from the United States Department of Labor (DOL) issued in January 2007. Courts that have considered similar claims against other homebuilders have acknowledged the DOLs position that sales and marketing representatives were properly classified as exempt from overtime wages and the only court to have directly addressed the exempt status of such employees concluded that the DOLs position was valid. Accordingly, the Company has vigorously defended and intends to continue to vigorously defend these lawsuits. Because the Company is unable to determine the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome of this case, or the amount of damages, if any, the Company has not recorded any associated liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
In June 2010, the Company received a Request for Information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pursuant to Section 308 of the Clean Water Act. The request sought information about storm water discharge practices in connection with homebuilding projects completed or underway by the Company in New York and New Jersey. The Company cooperated with this request, and provided information to the EPA. The Company was subsequently informed by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) that the EPA forwarded the information on the matter to the DOJ, and the DOJ requested that the

Company meet with the government to discuss the status of the case. Meetings took place in January 2012 and August 2012 with representatives from both the EPA and DOJ. It is as yet unclear what next steps the DOJ will take in the matter. The Company intends to continue cooperating with any future EPA and/or DOJ inquiries. At this time, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this inquiry, nor can it reasonably estimate the potential costs that may be associated with its eventual resolution.
The Company and its subsidiaries are also involved in various other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, and based on advice of legal counsel, this litigation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. Legal costs incurred in connection with outstanding litigation are expensed as incurred.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Overview
Business
Our primary business is the construction and sale of single-family detached homes, townhomes and condominium buildings, all of which are primarily constructed on a pre-sold basis. To fully serve customers of our homebuilding operations, we also operate a mortgage banking and title services business. We primarily conduct our operations in mature markets. Additionally, we generally grow our business through market share gains in our existing markets and by expanding into markets contiguous to our current active markets. Our four homebuilding reportable segments consist of the following regions:
Mid Atlantic: | Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware and Washington, D.C. | |
North East: | New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania | |
Mid East: | New York, Ohio, western Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois | |
South East: | North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Florida |
Our lot acquisition strategy is predicated upon avoiding the financial requirements and risks associated with direct land ownership and development. Historically, we have not engaged in land development to obtain finished lots for use in our homebuilding operations. Instead, we have acquired finished lots at market prices from various third party land developers pursuant to fixed price purchase agreements. These purchase
20
agreements require deposits, typically ranging up to 10% of the aggregate purchase price of the finished lots, in the form of cash or letters of credit that may be forfeited if we fail to perform under the purchase agreement. This strategy has allowed us to maximize inventory turnover, which we believe enables us to minimize market risk and to operate with less capital, thereby enhancing rates of return on equity and total capital.
Our continued success is contingent upon our ability to control an adequate supply of finished lots on which to build, and on our developers ability to timely deliver finished lots to meet the sales demands of our customers. However, during the past several years, the impact of economic conditions on the homebuilding industry have negatively impacted our developers ability to obtain acquisition and development financing or to raise equity investments to finance land development activity, potentially constraining our supply of finished lots. This pressure has necessitated that in certain specific strategic circumstances we deviate from our historical lot acquisition strategy and engage in joint venture arrangements with land developers or directly acquire raw ground already zoned for its intended use for development. Once we acquire control of any raw ground, we will determine whether to sell the raw parcel to a developer and enter into a fixed price purchase agreement with the developer to purchase the finished lots, or whether we will hire a developer to develop the land on our behalf. While joint venture arrangements and direct land development activity are not our preferred method of acquiring finished building lots, we may enter into additional transactions in the future on a limited basis where there exists a compelling strategic or prudent financial reason to do so. We expect, however, to continue to acquire substantially all of our finished lot inventory using fixed price purchase agreements with forfeitable deposits.
As of June 30, 2013, we controlled approximately 55,500 lots under purchase agreements with deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $268,900 and $750, respectively. Included in the number of controlled lots are approximately 9,300 lots for which we have recorded a contract land deposit impairment reserve of approximately $61,200 as of June 30, 2013. In addition, we had an aggregate investment of approximately $90,800 in three joint venture limited liability corporations (JVs), expected to produce approximately 7,500 lots. Of the lots controlled by the JVs, approximately 2,700 were not under contract with us at June 30, 2013. Further, as of June 30, 2013, we directly owned four separate raw parcels of land, zoned for their intended use, with a current cost basis, including development costs, of approximately $87,600 that we intend to develop into approximately 950 finished lots for use in our homebuilding operations. See Notes 3 and 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information regarding JVs and land under development, respectively.
In addition to constructing homes primarily on a pre-sold basis and utilizing what we believe is a conservative lot acquisition strategy, we focus on obtaining and maintaining a leading market position in each market we serve. This strategy allows us to gain valuable efficiencies and competitive advantages in our markets, which we believe contributes to minimizing the adverse effects of regional economic cycles and provides growth opportunities within these markets.
Overview of Current Business Environment
Improved sales and pricing trends experienced over the last several quarters have continued into the second quarter of 2013. These favorable market conditions continue to be driven by strong affordability levels and low housing inventory levels. Despite these improvements, the housing market continues to face challenges from tight mortgage underwriting standards and a recent increase in mortgage interest rates. While we have benefited from improved market conditions, we continue to face gross margin pressure due to increasing land and construction costs.
As a result of the favorable market conditions in the second quarter of 2013, our new orders, net of cancellations (new orders) and the average selling price for new orders increased 25% and 9%, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2012. We experienced new order increases in each of our reportable segments quarter over quarter. Consolidated revenues for the second quarter of 2013 totaled $1,009,892, a 31% increase from the second quarter of 2012. Our net income and diluted earnings per share in the current
21
quarter were $50,690 and $10.11, respectively, increases of 8% and 13%, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2012. Net income in the second quarter of 2012 was favorably impacted by a reduction of $6,989 of income tax expense due to an adjustment to our provision for unrecognized tax benefits. As a result of the increased second quarter sales, our backlog of homes sold but not yet settled with customers at the end of the quarter was 31% higher on a unit basis and 42% higher on a dollar basis than the same period in 2012. Our gross profit margin within our homebuilding business decreased to 15.9% in the second quarter of 2013 compared to 17.3% in the second quarter of 2012 due primarily to a charge of approximately $15,600, or 157 basis points of revenue, to establish an accrual related to remediation of primarily water infiltration issues in a single community. The water infiltration issues were the result of a design issue with several products developed for and built exclusively in that one community. Build-out of that community has been completed. Excluding this charge, gross profit margin for the second quarter of 2013 was 17.5%.
We believe that the continuation of the housing market recovery which began in 2012 is dependent upon a sustained overall economic recovery. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, enacted on July 21, 2010, contains numerous provisions affecting residential mortgages and mortgage lending practices. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued rules in January 2013, including Ability to Repay underwriting provisions, appraisal standards, servicing and escrow rules, and loan officer compensation requirements. Additional rulemaking is expected within the next several months. The ultimate impact of such provisions on lending institutions, including our mortgage banking subsidiary, will depend on the final interpretation and the banking industrys implementation of these new standards. Despite these ongoing economic uncertainties, because of the strength of our balance sheet, we believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities that may arise.

Consolidated Homebuilding - Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Homebuilding revenues increased 31% for the second quarter of 2013 from the same period in 2012 primarily as a result of a 16% increase in the number of units settled and a 13% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in the number of units settled was primarily attributable to our beginning backlog units being approximately 27% higher entering the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. Average settlement
22
prices were favorably impacted by a 10% higher average price of homes in beginning backlog period over period. In addition, both settlements and average settlement prices were favorably impacted by our December 31, 2012 acquisition of Heartland Homes.
Gross profit margin for the second quarter of 2013 decreased 134 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2012, primarily due to the aforementioned $15,600 charge, or 157 basis points of revenue, to establish an accrual related to remediation of primarily water infiltration issues at one of our completed communities. Excluding this charge, gross profit margin increased 24 basis points to 17.5% in the current year second quarter. Gross profit margin was favorably impacted by higher settlement volume in the current year quarter allowing us to better leverage our operating costs, partially offset by higher construction costs, including lumber and certain other commodity costs, quarter over quarter.
The number of new orders and the average selling price of new orders for the second quarter of 2013 increased 25% and 9%, respectively, when compared to the second quarter of 2012. New orders and average selling prices were higher quarter over quarter in each of our market segments. The increase in new orders was driven by a 12% increase in the number of active communities in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the prior year quarter, higher absorption rates and a decrease in the cancellation rate quarter over quarter. The Heartland Homes acquisition added approximately 90 new orders in the current year quarter.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the second quarter of 2013 increased approximately $8,400, or 11%, compared to the second quarter of 2012 but decreased as a percentage of revenue to 8.3% from 9.8% quarter over quarter. The increase in SG&A dollars was attributable primarily to an approximate $9,900 increase in personnel costs in the second quarter of 2013 due to an increase in headcount quarter over quarter. In addition, sales and marketing costs were approximately $2,900 higher in the current quarter due to the increase in the number of active communities quarter over quarter. These cost increases were partially offset by a $5,900 reduction in equity-based compensation in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012. Equity-based compensation was favorably impacted as a result of the restricted share units (RSUs) issued in 2010 becoming fully vested as of December 31, 2012, offset partially by equity-based compensation expense incurred in 2013 related to RSUs issued in May 2013. The decrease in SG&A costs as a percentage of revenue was driven by increased revenue in the current quarter, allowing us to better leverage our overhead costs.
Consolidated Homebuilding - Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
Homebuilding revenues increased 30% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of a 17% increase in the number of units settled and an 11% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in the number of units settled was primarily attributable to our beginning backlog units being approximately 35% higher entering 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate year over year. Average settlement prices were favorably impacted by a 10% higher average price of homes in beginning backlog period over period. In addition, both settlements and average settlement prices were favorably impacted by the Heartland Homes acquisition.
Gross profit margin in the first six months of 2013 decreased 41 basis points compared to the first six months of 2012. Excluding the charge in the second quarter of 2013 of approximately $15,600, or 89 basis points of revenue, for service repairs noted above, gross profit margin was 17.2%, an increase of 48 basis points from the prior year. Gross profit margin was favorably impacted by higher settlement volume in the current year allowing us to better leverage our operating costs, partially offset by higher construction costs, including lumber and certain other commodity costs, year over year. We expect to continue to experience gross profit margin pressure over the next several quarters, due to cost pressures.
The number of new orders and the average selling price of new orders for the first six months of 2013 increased 18% and 10%, respectively, when compared to the first six months of 2012. New orders and average new order selling prices were higher year over year in each of our market segments. The increase in new orders was driven by a 12% increase in the number of active communities year over year and improved sales
23
absorption in many of our markets. The Heartland Homes acquisition added approximately 240 new orders in the current year. The favorable market conditions discussed in the Overview section above have allowed us to increase our number of active communities and our pricing in many of our markets.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the first six months of 2013 increased approximately $14,600 compared to the first six months of 2012 but decreased as a percentage of revenue to 9.2% from 10.9% year over year. The increase in SG&A dollars was attributable primarily to an approximate $20,100 increase in personnel costs in 2013 due to an increase in headcount year over year. In addition, sales and marketing costs were approximately $5,000 higher in 2013 due to the increase in the number of active communities. These cost increases were partially offset by an approximate $13,800 reduction in equity-based compensation in 2013 compared to 2012. Equity-based compensation was favorably impacted as a result of the restricted share units issued in 2010 becoming fully vested as of December 31, 2012, offset partially by equity-based compensation expense incurred in 2013 related to RSUs issued in May 2013. The decrease in SG&A costs as a percentage of revenue was driven by increased revenue in the current quarter, allowing us to better leverage our overhead costs.
Backlog units and dollars were 6,617 and $2,372,757, respectively, as of June 30, 2013 compared to 5,048 and $1,672,622, respectively, as of June 30, 2012. Backlog units were higher primarily due to our beginning backlog units being approximately 35% higher entering 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, coupled with the increase in new orders and a lower backlog turnover rate in 2013. Backlog dollars were favorably impacted by the increase in backlog units and the 10% higher average new order selling price year over year.
Backlog, which represents homes sold but not yet settled with the customer, may be impacted by customer cancellations for various reasons that are beyond our control, such as failure to obtain mortgage financing, inability to sell an existing home, job loss, or a variety of other reasons. In any period, a portion of the cancellations that we experience are related to new sales that occurred during the same period, and a portion are related to sales that occurred in prior periods and therefore appeared in the opening backlog for the current period. Expressed as the total of all cancellations during the period as a percentage of gross sales during the period, our cancellation rate was approximately 13.5% and 13.1% in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the most recent four quarters, approximately 6% of a reporting quarters opening backlog cancelled during the fiscal quarter. We can provide no assurance that our historical cancellation rates are indicative of the actual cancellation rate that may occur in 2013 or future years.
The backlog turnover rate is impacted by various factors, including, but not limited to, changes in new order activity, internal production capacity, external subcontractor capacity and other external factors over which we do not exercise control.
Reportable Segments
Homebuilding profit before tax includes all revenues and income generated from the sale of homes, less the cost of homes sold, SG&A expenses, and a corporate capital allocation charge determined at the corporate headquarters. The corporate capital allocation charge eliminates in consolidation, is based on the segments average net assets employed, and is charged using a consistent methodology in the periods presented. The corporate capital allocation charged to the operating segment allows the Chief Operating Decision Maker to determine whether the operating segments results are providing the desired rate of return after covering our cost of capital. We record charges on contract land deposits when we determine that it is probable that recovery of the deposit is impaired. For segment reporting purposes, impairments on contract land deposits are generally charged to the operating segment upon the determination to terminate a finished lot purchase agreement with the developer or to restructure a lot purchase agreement resulting in the forfeiture of the deposit. We evaluate our entire net contract land deposit portfolio for impairment each quarter. For additional information regarding our contract land deposit impairment analysis, see the Critical Accounting Policies section within this Management Discussion and Analysis. For presentation purposes below, the contract land deposit reserve at June 30, 2013 and 2012 has been allocated to the respective years reportable segments to show contract land deposits on a net basis. The net contract land deposit balances below also
24
include $750 and $3,700 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, of letters of credit issued as deposits in lieu of cash. The following tables summarize certain homebuilding operating activity by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

Mid Atlantic
Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The Mid Atlantic segment profit increased approximately $4,100, or 9%, from the second quarter of 2012. Segment revenues increased approximately $140,400, or 31%, quarter over quarter due primarily to a 17% increase in the number of units settled and a 12% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in units settled was attributable to a 24% higher backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2013 compared to the backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The Mid Atlantic segments gross profit margin percentage decreased 238 basis points quarter over quarter. Gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2013 was impacted by the $15,600 charge, or 262 basis points of revenue, discussed previously in the Overview section, to establish an accrual related to remediation of primarily water infiltration issues at one of our completed communities. Excluding this charge, gross profit margin increased 24 basis points to 18.6% in the current year second quarter due to increased settlement volume which allowed us to better leverage certain operating costs.
Segment new orders and the average selling price of new orders increased 26% and 8%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012. New orders increased quarter over quarter due to a 10% increase in the number of active communities and higher sales absorption levels. In addition, new orders in the current quarter were favorably impacted by a decrease in the cancellation rate to 12.2% from 15.1% in the prior year quarter. The increase in the average selling price was attributable to a shift in mix of new orders to higher priced markets and a shift in product mix of new orders from attached products to detached products, which generally sell at higher prices.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The Mid Atlantic segment had an approximate $11,600, or 16%, increase in segment profit in the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. The increase in segment profit was driven by the increase of approximately $211,500, or 26%, in revenues year over year due primarily to a 15% increase in the number of units settled and a 9% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in units settled was attributable to a 36% higher backlog unit balance entering 2013 compared to the backlog unit balance entering 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate year over year. As discussed above, the Mid Atlantic segments gross profit margin percentage was reduced by 152 basis points as a result of a service related charge in the second quarter of 2013. Excluding that charge, gross profit margin increased 25 basis points in 2013 from 2012, primarily due to increased settlement volume which allowed us to better leverage certain operating costs.
Segment new orders and the average selling price increased 14% and 10%, respectively, in the first six months of 2013 from the same period in 2012. New orders increased due to a 10% increase in the number of active communities and to higher sales absorption levels driven by improved market conditions as discussed in the Overview section. The increase in the average selling price was attributable to a shift to higher priced communities in certain markets and the aforementioned favorable market conditions which allowed us to increase prices in several markets within the Mid Atlantic segment.
28
North East
Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The North East segment had an approximate $800, or 14%, increase in segment profit from the second quarter of 2012. Segment revenues increased approximately $11,100, or 16%, quarter over quarter due to a 5% increase in the number of units settled, coupled with a 10% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in units settled was attributable to a 15% higher backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2013 compared to the backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The average settlement price increased quarter over quarter due to a 4% higher average price of homes in beginning backlog quarter over quarter, coupled with a shift in the product mix of settlements from attached products to our detached products which generally sell at higher prices.
Segment new orders and the average selling price increased approximately 16% and 3%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2013 from the same period in 2012. New orders were favorably impacted by higher sales absorption levels attributable to the favorable market conditions discussed in the Overview section above. The average selling price increased slightly as higher selling prices in certain markets were offset partially by a shift in product mix from our detached products to our attached products, which generally sell at lower price points.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The North East segment had an approximate $2,000, or 25%, increase in segment profit in the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012. The increase in segment profit was primarily driven by an increase of approximately $21,500, or 17%, in revenues year over year due to an 8% increase in the number of units settled, coupled with a 9% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in units settled was attributable to a 15% higher backlog unit balance entering 2013 as compared to the backlog unit balance entering 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate in the current year. The average settlement price increased year over year due to a 9% higher average price of homes in beginning backlog entering 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. The North East segments gross profit margin percentage was flat year over year. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted in 2013 by higher construction costs, including lumber and certain other commodity costs, year over year. These higher costs were offset by improved leveraging of certain operating costs due to the higher settlement volume.
Segment new orders and the average selling price increased approximately 15% and 1%, respectively, during the first six months of 2013 from the same period in 2012. New orders were favorably impacted by higher sales absorption levels attributable to the favorable market conditions discussed in the Overview section above. The average selling price remained relatively flat as higher selling prices in certain markets were offset by a shift in product mix from our detached products to our attached products, which generally sell at lower price points.
Mid East
Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The Mid East segment had an approximate $200, or 2%, decrease in segment profit from the second quarter of 2012. Segment revenues were higher by approximately $61,400, or 40%, quarter over quarter. Revenues increased primarily due to a 19% increase in the number of units settled and an 18% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in settlements was primarily attributable to a 30% higher backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The higher beginning backlog balance was attributable in part to our acquisition of Heartland Homes in December 2012. Heartland Homes settled approximately 80 homes in the second quarter of 2013. Average settlement prices were higher due to a 21% higher average price of
29
homes in backlog entering the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 attributable to a shift in mix to higher priced communities as well as the higher average price of homes in the backlog acquired in the Heartland Homes acquisition. The Mid Easts gross profit margin decreased to 14.6% in the second quarter of 2013 from 16.8% in the same period of 2012. Gross profit margins were negatively impacted by the lower average gross profit margin associated with the Heartland Homes backlog acquired, a portion of which was settled in the current quarter, and higher construction costs, including lumber and certain other commodity costs.
Segment new orders and the average selling price for new orders increased 23% and 14%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. New orders were higher quarter over quarter due to approximately 90 new orders from our Heartland Homes divisions, an increase in the number of active communities in the Mid East segment (excluding Heartland Homes), and a decrease in the cancellation rate quarter over quarter. The increase in the average new order price was attributable to a shift in mix to higher priced communities in certain markets, including higher average selling prices associated with the Heartland Homes new orders, coupled with the aforementioned favorable market conditions in the current year quarter which allowed us to increase prices in certain markets.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The Mid East segment had an approximate $600, or 6%, increase in segment profit from the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. The increase in segment profit was driven by an increase in revenues of approximately $125,900, or 49%, year over year due primarily to a 24% increase in the number of units settled and a 20% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in settlements was primarily attributable to a 43% higher backlog unit balance entering 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate year over year. The higher backlog balance entering 2013 was in part attributable to the Heartland Homes acquisition, which added approximately 200 units and $81,600 to backlog at December 31, 2012. Average settlement prices were higher due to a 21% higher average price of homes in backlog entering the first quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 due to a shift in mix to higher priced communities as well as to the higher average price of homes in the backlog acquired from Heartland Homes. Gross profit margin decreased to 13.6% in the first six months of 2013 from 15.5% in the same period of 2012, due to the lower average gross profit margin associated with the Heartland Homes backlog acquired, a significant portion of which was settled in the current year, and higher construction costs, including lumber and certain other commodity costs.
Segment new orders and the average selling price for new orders increased 21% and 17%, respectively, during the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. New orders increased due to approximately 240 new orders from Heartland Homes, an increase in the number of active communities in the Mid East segment (excluding Heartland Homes), and a decrease in the cancellation rate year over year. The increase in the average new order price was attributable to a shift in mix to higher priced communities in certain markets, including higher average selling prices associated with the Heartland Homes new orders, coupled with the aforementioned favorable market conditions in the current year quarter which allowed us to increase prices in certain markets.
South East
Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The South East segment had an approximate $700, or 16%, increase in segment profit from the second quarter of 2012. Segment revenues in the 2013 quarter increased approximately $24,000, or 31%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a 17% increase in the number of units settled and a 12% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in settlements was attributable to a 39% higher beginning backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The increase in the average settlement price was attributable primarily to a 10% higher average selling price of homes in beginning backlog entering the second quarter of
30
2013 compared to the same period in 2012. The South East segments gross profit margin decreased to 15.4% in the second quarter of 2012 from 16.8% in the second quarter of 2012. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by higher land and construction costs.
Segment new orders and the average selling price for new orders increased approximately 32% and 10%, respectively, during the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. New orders were favorably impacted by a 12% increase in the number of active communities and higher absorption levels quarter over quarter driven by the favorable market conditions discussed in the Overview section above. In addition, new orders were favorably impacted by a decrease in the cancellation rate quarter over quarter. The increase in the average selling price for new orders was attributable to a shift in mix of new orders to higher priced markets and higher priced communities in certain markets in addition to a shift in product mix from attached products to detached products, which generally sell at higher prices.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The South East segment had an approximate $500, or 6%, increase in segment profit for the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, primarily due to an increase in revenues of approximately $42,800, or 30%, year over year. Segment revenues were higher primarily due to a 17% increase in the number of units settled and an 11% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in settlements was attributable to a 37% higher beginning backlog unit balance entering 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate year over year. The average settlement price was favorably impacted by a 12% higher average price of homes in backlog entering 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. The South East segments gross profit margin decreased to 15.3% in 2013 from 16.7% in 2012 primarily due to higher land and construction costs.
Segment new orders and the average selling price for new orders increased approximately 29% and 9%, respectively, in the first six months of 2013 from the same period in 2012. New orders increased quarter over quarter due to higher sales absorption levels driven by improved economic conditions as discussed in the Overview section. In addition, new orders were favorably impacted by a 9% increase in the number of active communities and a decrease in the cancellation rate year over year. The increase in the average selling price for new orders was attributable to a shift in mix of new orders to higher priced markets and higher priced communities in certain markets.
Homebuilding Segment Reconciliations to Consolidated Homebuilding Operations
In addition to the corporate capital allocation and contract land deposit impairments discussed above, the other reconciling items between homebuilding segment profit and homebuilding consolidated profit before tax include unallocated corporate overhead (which includes all management incentive compensation), stock-based compensation expense, consolidation adjustments and external corporate interest expense. Our overhead functions, such as accounting, treasury, human resources, etc., are centrally performed and the costs are not allocated to our operating segments. Consolidation adjustments consist of such items to convert the reportable segments results, which are predominantly maintained on a cash basis, to a full accrual basis for external financial statement presentation purposes, and are not allocated to our operating segments. Likewise, stock-based compensation expense is not charged to the operating segments.

(1) | This item represents changes to the contract land deposit impairment reserve, which are not allocated to the reportable segments. |
(2) | Equity-based compensation expense is lower for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 due to restricted share units issued in 2010 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan becoming fully vested effective December 31, 2012. This reduction was partially offset by equity-based compensation expense incurred in 2013 related to RSUs issued in May 2013 under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. |
(3) | This item represents the elimination of the corporate capital allocation charge included in the respective homebuilding reportable segments. The corporate capital allocation charge is based on the segments monthly average asset balance, and was as follows for the periods presented: |

Loan closing volume for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, increased 18% and 16%, respectively, over the same periods for 2012. The 2013 increases were primarily attributable to the increased unit volume as a result of the aforementioned increase in the number of builder settlements compared to the same periods in 2012 and an increase in the average loan amounts compared to the same periods in 2012. The unit volume increases were partially offset by a decrease in the number of loans closed by NVRM for our homebuyers who obtain a mortgage to purchase the home (Capture Rate), which for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 decreased to 85% and 84%, respectively, compared to 88% for the same periods in 2012.
Segment profit for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, increased by approximately $1,400 and $4,500, respectively, from the same periods in 2012. For the three and six month periods, the increase in segment profits was driven primarily by increased mortgage banking fees of approximately $3,200 and $8,300, respectively. Mortgage banking fees were higher for both periods primarily due to the aforementioned increases in loan closing volume and an increase in secondary marketing gains on sales of loans. The increase in mortgage banking fees for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2013 was partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses, which increased by approximately $2,000 and $3,400, respectively, from the same periods in 2012. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to higher compensation costs as a result of an increase in headcount.
33
Mortgage Banking - Other
We sell all of the loans we originate into the secondary mortgage market. Insofar as we underwrite our originated loans to the standards and specifications of the ultimate investor, we have no further financial obligations from the issuance of loans, except in certain limited instances where early payment default occurs. Those underwriting standards are typically equal to or more stringent than the underwriting standards required by FNMA, VA and FHA. Because we sell all of our loans and do not service them, there is often a substantial delay between the time that a loan goes into default and the time that the servicer requests us to reimburse them for losses incurred because of the default. We believe that all of the loans that we originate are underwritten to the standards and specifications of the ultimate investor to whom we sell our originated loans. We employ a quality control department to ensure that our underwriting controls are effective, and further assess the underwriting function as part of our assessment of internal controls over financial reporting.
NVRM maintains an allowance for losses on mortgage loans originated that reflects our judgment of the present loss exposure from the loans that we have originated and sold. The allowance is calculated based on an analysis of historical experience and exposure. At June 30, 2013, we had an allowance for loan losses of approximately $7,300. Although we consider the allowance for loan losses reflected on the June 30, 2013 balance sheet to be adequate, there can be no assurance that this allowance will prove to be adequate to cover losses on loans previously originated.
NVRM is dependent on our homebuilding segments customers for business. If new orders and selling prices of the homebuilding segment decline, NVRMs operations will also be adversely affected. In addition, the mortgage segments operating results may be adversely affected in future periods as a result of continued tightening and volatility of the credit markets, changes in investor funding times, and increased regulation of mortgage lending practices.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Lines of Credit and Notes Payable
Our homebuilding business segment funds its operations from cash flows provided by operating activities and the public debt and equity markets. On September 5, 2012, we filed a Shelf Registration Statement (the Shelf) with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register for future offer and sale an unlimited amount of debt securities, common shares, preferred shares, depositary shares representing preferred shares and warrants. On September 10, 2012, we issued $600,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.95% Senior Notes due 2022 (the Notes) under the Shelf. The Notes mature on September 15, 2022 and bear interest at 3.95%, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, which commenced on March 15, 2013. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with any of NVRs existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness, will rank senior in right of payment to any of NVRs future indebtedness that is by its terms expressly subordinated to the Notes and will be effectively subordinated to any of NVRs existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The indenture governing the Notes does not contain any financial covenants, however, it does contain, among other items, and subject to certain exceptions, covenants that restrict 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.
Our mortgage banking subsidiary, NVRM, provides for its mortgage origination and other operating activities using cash generated from operations, borrowings from its parent company, NVR, as well as a revolving mortgage repurchase facility, which is non-recourse to NVR. On August 1, 2012, NVRM entered into a repurchase agreement with U.S. Bank National Association which provides for loan purchases up to $25,000, subject to certain sub-limits (Repurchase Agreement). The purpose of the Repurchase Agreement is to finance the origination of mortgage loans by NVRM. The Repurchase Agreement has been renewed with materially consistent terms and conditions and expires on July 30, 2014.
34
Advances under the Repurchase Agreement carry a Pricing Rate based on the Libor Rate plus the Libor Margin, or the Default Pricing Rate, as determined under the Repurchase Agreement, provided that the Pricing Rate shall not be less than 3.10%. There are several restrictions on purchased loans, including that they cannot be sold to others, they cannot be pledged to anyone other than the agent, and they cannot support any other borrowing or repurchase agreement. The Repurchase Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants. The negative covenants include among others, certain limitations on transactions involving acquisitions, mergers, the incurrence of debt, sale of assets and creation of liens upon any of its Mortgage Notes. Additional covenants include (i) a tangible net worth requirement, (ii) a minimum liquidity requirement, (iii) a minimum net income requirement, and (iv) a maximum leverage ratio requirement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Repurchase Agreement at June 30, 2013. At June 30, 2013 there was no debt outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement and there were no borrowing base limitations.
Cash Flows
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $375,083. Cash used by our operating activities was $90,514. Cash was used to fund the increase in homebuilding inventory of $256,541, as a result of an increase in units under construction at June 30, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012 and the acquisition of additional land under development. Cash was provided by an increase of $106,719 in accounts payable, accrued expenses and customer deposits due primarily to the increase in our inventory and sales volume and net proceeds of $30,046 from mortgage loan activity.
Net cash used by investing activities was $16,707 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, which was primarily attributable to an additional $11,000 investment made in our existing joint venture with Morgan Stanley Real Estate Investing. In addition, cash was used to purchase property, plant and equipment of $8,088.
Net cash used by financing activities was $267,862 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Cash was used to repurchase approximately 300,000 shares of our common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $294,979 under our ongoing common stock repurchase program, discussed below. Stock option exercise activity provided $6,671 in exercise proceeds, and we realized $23,727 in excess income tax benefits from equity-based compensation plan activity.
Equity Repurchases
In addition to funding growth in our homebuilding and mortgage banking operations, we historically have used a substantial portion of our excess liquidity to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock in open market and privately negotiated transactions. This ongoing repurchase activity is conducted pursuant to publicly announced Board authorizations, and is typically executed in accordance with the safe-harbor provisions of Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act. In addition, the Board resolutions authorizing us to repurchase shares of our common stock specifically prohibit us from purchasing shares from our officers, directors, Profit Sharing/401K Plan Trust or Employee Stock Ownership Plan Trust. The repurchase program assists us in accomplishing our primary objective, creating increases in shareholder value. See Part II, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for further discussion of repurchase activity during the second quarter of 2013.
Critical Accounting Policies
General
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We continually evaluate the estimates we use to prepare the consolidated financial statements and update those estimates as
35
necessary. In general, our estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and other various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates made by management.
Homebuilding Inventory
The carrying value of inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value. The cost of lots and completed and uncompleted housing units represent the accumulated actual cost of the units. Field construction supervisors salaries and related direct overhead expenses are included in inventory costs. Interest costs are not capitalized into inventory, with the exception of land under development. Upon settlement, the cost of the unit is expensed on a specific identification basis. The cost of manufacturing materials is determined on a first-in, first-out basis.
Sold inventory is evaluated for impairment based on the contractual selling price compared to the total estimated cost to construct. Unsold inventory is evaluated for impairment by analyzing recent comparable sales prices within the applicable community compared to the costs incurred to date plus the expected costs to complete. Any calculated impairments are recorded immediately.
Land Under Development and Contract Land Deposits
Land Under Development
On a very limited basis, we directly acquire raw parcels of land already zoned for its intended use to develop into finished lots. Land under development includes the land acquisition costs, direct improvement costs, capitalized interest, where applicable, and real estate taxes.
Land under development, including the land under development held by our unconsolidated joint ventures and the related joint venture investments, is reviewed for potential write-downs when impairment indicators are present. In addition to considering market and economic conditions, we assess land under development impairments on a community-by-community basis, analyzing, as applicable, current sales absorption levels, recent sales gross profit, and the dollar differential between the projected fully-developed cost of the lots and the current market price for lots. If indicators of impairment are present for a community, we perform an analysis to determine if the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts, and if they are, impairment charges are required to be recorded in an amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Our determination of fair value is primarily based on discounting the estimated future cash flows at a rate commensurate with the inherent risks associated with the assets and related estimated cash flow streams.
At June 30, 2013, we had approximately $87,600 in land under development in four separate communities. In addition, at June 30, 2013, we had an aggregate investment totaling approximately $90,800 in three separate JVs that controlled land under development. None of the four communities classified as land under development nor any of the undeveloped land held by the three JVs had any indicators of impairment at June 30, 2013. As such, we do not believe that any of the land under development is impaired at this time. 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.
Contract Land Deposits
We purchase finished lots under fixed price purchase agreements that require deposits that may be forfeited if we fail to perform under the contract. The deposits are in the form of cash or letters of credit in varying amounts and represent a percentage of the aggregate purchase price of the finished lots.
36
We maintain an allowance for losses on contract land deposits that reflects our judgment of the present loss exposure in the existing contract land deposit portfolio at the end of the reporting period. To analyze contract land deposit impairments, we utilize a loss contingency analysis that is conducted each quarter. In addition to considering market and economic conditions, we assess contract land deposit impairments on a community-by-community basis pursuant to the purchase contract terms, analyzing, as applicable, current sales absorption levels, recent sales gross profit, the dollar differential between the contractual purchase price and the current market price for lots, a developers financial stability, a developers financial ability or willingness to reduce lot prices to current market prices, and the contracts default status by either us or the developer along with an analysis of the expected outcome of any such default.
Our analysis is focused on whether we can sell houses profitably in a particular community in the current market with which we are faced. Because we do not own the finished lots on which we had placed a contract land deposit, if the above analysis leads to a determination that we cannot sell homes profitably at the current contractual lot price, we then determine whether we will elect to default under the contract, forfeit our deposit and terminate the contract, or whether we will attempt to restructure the lot purchase contract, which may require us to forfeit the deposit to obtain contract concessions from a developer. We also assess whether an impairment is present due to collectability issues resulting from a developers non-performance because of financial or other conditions.
Although we consider the allowance for losses on contract land deposits reflected on the June 30, 2013 condensed consolidated balance sheet to be adequate (see Note 2 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein), there can be no assurance that this allowance will prove to be adequate over time to cover losses due to unanticipated adverse changes in the economy or other events adversely affecting specific markets or the homebuilding industry.
Excess Reorganization Value
Reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets (excess reorganization value) is an indefinite-lived intangible asset that was created upon our emergence from bankruptcy on September 30, 1993. Based on the allocation of our reorganization value, the portion of our reorganization value which was not attributed to specific tangible or intangible assets has been reported as excess reorganization value, which is treated similarly to goodwill. Excess reorganization value is not subject to amortization. Rather, excess reorganization value is subject to an impairment assessment on an annual basis or more frequently if changes in events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. Because excess reorganization value was based on the reorganization value of our entire enterprise upon bankruptcy emergence, the impairment assessment is conducted on an enterprise basis based on the comparison of our total equity compared to the market value of our outstanding publicly-traded common stock. We do not believe that excess reorganization value is impaired at this time. However, changes in strategy or continued adverse changes in market conditions could impact this judgment and require an impairment loss to be recognized if our book value, including excess reorganization value, exceeds the fair value.
Warranty/Product Liability Accruals
Warranty and product liability accruals are established to provide for estimated future costs as a result of construction and product defects, product recalls and litigation incidental to our business. Liability estimates are determined based on our judgment considering such factors as historical experience, the likely current cost of corrective action, manufacturers and subcontractors participation in sharing the cost of corrective action, consultations with third party experts such as engineers, and evaluations by our General Counsel and outside counsel retained to handle specific product liability cases. Although we consider the warranty and product liability accrual reflected on the June 30, 2013 condensed consolidated balance sheet to be adequate (see Note 10 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein), there can be no assurance that this accrual will prove to be adequate over time to cover losses due to increased costs for material and labor, the inability or refusal of manufacturers or subcontractors to financially participate in corrective action, unanticipated adverse legal settlements, or other unanticipated changes to the assumptions used to estimate the warranty and product liability accrual.
37
Equity-Based Compensation Expense
Compensation costs related to our equity-based compensation plans are recognized within our income statement. The costs recognized are based on the grant date fair value. Compensation cost for share-based grants is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award (from the date of grant through the period of the last separately vesting portion of the grant).
We calculate the fair value of our non-publicly traded, employee stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. While the Black-Scholes model is a widely accepted method to calculate the fair value of options, its results are dependent on input variables, two of which, expected term and expected volatility, are significantly dependent on managements judgment. We have concluded that our historical exercise experience is the best estimate of future exercise patterns to determine an options expected term. To estimate expected volatility, we analyze the historical volatility of our common stock over a period equal to the options expected term. Changes in managements judgment of the expected term and the expected volatility could have a material effect on the grant-date fair value calculated and expensed within the income statement. In addition, we are required to estimate future grant forfeitures when considering the amount of stock-based compensation costs to record. We have concluded that our historical forfeiture rate is the best measure to base our estimate of future forfeitures of equity-based compensation grants. However, there can be no assurance that our future forfeiture rate will not be materially higher or lower than our historical forfeiture rate, which would affect the aggregate cumulative compensation expense recognized.
Mortgage Loan Loss Allowance
We originate several different loan products to our customers to finance the purchase of their home. We sell all of the loans we originate into the secondary mortgage market generally within 30 days from origination. All of the loans that we originate are underwritten to the standards and specifications of the ultimate investor. Insofar as we underwrite our originated loans to those standards, we bear no increased concentration of credit risk from the issuance of loans, except in certain limited instances where early payment default occurs. Those underwriting standards are typically equal to or more stringent than the underwriting standards required by FNMA, VA and FHA. We employ a quality control department to ensure that our underwriting controls are effectively operating, and further assess the underwriting function as part of our assessment of internal controls over financial reporting. We maintain an allowance for losses on mortgage loans originated that reflects our judgment of the present loss exposure in the loans that we have originated and sold. The allowance is calculated based on an analysis of historical experience and exposure. Although we consider the allowance for loan losses reflected on the June 30, 2013 condensed consolidated balance sheet to be adequate, there can be no assurance that this allowance will prove to be adequate over time to cover losses due to unanticipated changes to the assumptions used to estimate the mortgage loan loss allowance.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk |
There have been no material changes in our market risks during the six months ended June 30, 2013. For additional information regarding market risk, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
38
PART II. | OTHER INFORMATION |
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings |
On July 18, 2007, former and current employees filed lawsuits against us in the Court of Common Pleas in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania and Hamilton County, Ohio, in Superior Court in Durham County, North Carolina, and in the Circuit Court in Montgomery County, Maryland, and on July 19, 2007 in the Superior Court in New Jersey, alleging that we incorrectly classified our sales and marketing representatives as being exempt from overtime wages. These lawsuits are similar in nature to another lawsuit filed on October 29, 2004 by another former employee in the United States District Court for the Western District of New York captioned Tracy v. NVR, Inc. The lawsuits filed in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey and North Carolina have been stayed pending further developments in the Tracy action.
The complaints described above seek injunctive relief, an award of unpaid wages, including fringe benefits, liquidated damages equal to the overtime wages allegedly due and not paid, attorney and other fees and interest, and where available, multiple damages. While the suits were filed as purported class actions, none of them have been certified as such. On April 29, 2013, the Western District of New York ruled that the claims asserted in the Tracy case were not appropriate for class action treatment and dismissed a number of individuals who had filed consents to join that action from the case. It is now scheduled for a trial on the remaining individual plaintiffs claims to commence in October 2013.
On May 29, 2013, attorneys representing the individuals dismissed from the Tracy action filed another lawsuit on behalf of those individuals in the New York Supreme Court for Monroe County captioned Anderson v. NVR, Inc. We removed the Anderson action to the Western District of New York on June 18, 2013. Plaintiffs subsequently filed a motion to stay the Anderson action pending final disposition of the Tracy action, which we intend to oppose.
We believe that our compensation practices in regard to sales and marketing representatives are entirely lawful and in compliance with two letter rulings from the United States Department of Labor (DOL) issued in January 2007. Courts that have considered similar claims against other homebuilders have acknowledged the DOLs position that sales and marketing representatives were properly classified as exempt from overtime wages and the only court to have directly addressed the exempt status of such employees concluded that the DOLs position was valid. Accordingly, we have vigorously defended and intend to continue to vigorously defend these lawsuits. Because we are unable to determine the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome of this case, or the amount of damages, if any, the Company has not recorded any associated liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
In June 2010, we received a Request for Information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pursuant to Section 308 of the Clean Water Act. The request sought information about storm water discharge practices in connection with homebuilding projects completed or underway by us in New York and New Jersey. We cooperated with this request, and provided information to the EPA. We were subsequently informed by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) that the EPA forwarded the information on the matter to the DOJ, and the DOJ requested that we meet with the government to discuss the status of the case. Meetings took place in January 2012 and August 2012 with representatives from both the EPA and DOJ. It is not yet known what next steps, if any, the DOJ will take in the matter. We intend to continue cooperating with any future EPA and/or DOJ inquiries. At this time, we cannot predict the outcome of this inquiry, nor can we reasonably estimate the potential costs that may be associated with its eventual resolution.
We are also involved in various other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, and based on advice of legal counsel, this litigation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Legal costs incurred in connection with outstanding litigation are expensed as incurred.

Item 1A. | Risk Factors |
There has been no material change to the risk factors as previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 in response to Item 1A. Part 1 of such Form 10-K.
Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
