COMMENTS FROM MANAGEMENT:
"We are very happy to report a pre-tax profit before debt extinguishment gains or losses for the first time in 25 quarters. The fourth quarter marked the sixth sequential increase in our quarterly gross margin percentage, and our gross margin has improved 350 basis points over that period," said Ara K. Hovnanian, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. "During fiscal 2012, we were able to generate significant operating leverage by holding our total SG&A and interest expenses at a fairly constant dollar amount, while growing our revenues by more than 30%. As a result, our SG&A as a percentage of total sales declined to 10.0% during the fourth quarter, which by historical standards we consider a normalized level. Furthermore, our sales growth continued with a 46% increase in dollar value of net contracts for the quarter and a 34% increase in dollar value of our backlog.
"After the worst downturn that the homebuilding industry has ever seen, I do not think there is any question that the industry is finally in a period of modest recovery. Building homes creates jobs for carpenters, electricians, plumbers and many other trades, as well as jobs in related industries like manufacturing appliances and home furnishings. A sustained recovery in the homebuilding sector will help drive overall improvement in the U.S. economy and that will encourage even more consumers to buy a home," concluded Mr. Hovnanian.
