INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev., July 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tri Pointe Homes, Inc. (the \u201cCompany\u201d) (NYSE:TPH) today announced results for the second quarter ended June\u00a030, 2021. The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $250 million of common stock under its existing stock repurchase program (\u201cRepurchase Program\u201d) and extended the term of the Repurchase Program through December 31, 2022, increasing the aggregate authorization under the Repurchase Program from $250 million to $500 million.<\/p>\n

\u201cTri Pointe Homes delivered another strong quarter of profitability in the second quarter of 2021, generating fully diluted earnings per share of $1.00, representing a 133% increase as compared to the second quarter of 2020,\u201d said Tri Pointe Homes Chief Executive Officer Doug Bauer. \u201cOur average sales price and homebuilding gross margin percentage came in above the high end of our stated guidance, as our teams did an excellent job executing on our business plan while navigating the supply chain issues that persist in our industry. In addition, we posted company records in a number of key metrics for a second quarter, including home sales revenue, pre-tax profit, and quarter-ending backlog value.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Bauer continued, \u201cOrder activity during the second quarter was robust as we averaged 4.7 sales per community per month, a 53% improvement over the second quarter of 2020. Demand trends remained elevated in all of our markets and at all of our price points, a sign that buyers remain motivated in a number of demographic segments in conjunction with the ongoing and widespread shortage of available housing supply. Similar to the first quarter, we intentionally constrained our sales releases to implement price increases and manage our backlog, a decision that proved to be a profitable one for our company, as homebuilding gross margin expanded 300 basis points year-over-year to 24.6% for the quarter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Bauer concluded, \u201cWith a favorable industry outlook, a sizable backlog and a rapidly improving return profile, Tri Pointe Homes is poised to continue the strong operating momentum into the back half of 2021. Longer term, we believe we have an excellent opportunity to build on our recent success, thanks to the increasing scale we are realizing in many of our markets and the land investments we have made, which will lead to significant community count growth in 2022. Given these positives, we are extremely optimistic about the future of our company.\u201d<\/p>\n
