Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, "We are pleased to announce record financial results for the third quarter of 2022, highlighted by record revenue, income, and earnings per share. Our margins during the quarter were very strong with gross margins of 26.8% (up 230 basis points from a year ago) and operating margins at 16.5% (up 270 basis points from a year ago). Our overhead leverage improved 40 basis points to 10.3%. Our homes delivered declined 1% from a year ago due to delayed closings in our Florida markets caused by Hurricane Ian."

Mr. Schottenstein continued, "New contracts for the quarter declined 31%, reflecting the significant decline in homebuyer demand that began earlier this year due to the well documented impact of higher mortgage interest rates. Notwithstanding this decline, our financial condition is very strong. We ended the quarter with record shareholders' equity of $1.9 billion, an increase of 25% over last year, book value of $71 per share, cash of $68 million, zero borrowings on our $550 million credit facility, and a homebuilding debt to capital of 26%."

Mr. Schottenstein concluded, "There is much uncertainty concerning the general economy, and it is unclear when demand for new homes will improve. However, we believe, over the long term, that housing markets will benefit from strong fundamentals, including favorable demographic trends and an undersupply of housing. We are well positioned to manage through these changing and uncertain times given the strength of our balance sheet, low debt levels, diverse product offerings and well-located communities."
