Supplemental Data and Reconciliation
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (unaudited) In this presentation, we utilize certain financial measures that are non-gaap financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We present these measures because we believe they and similar measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company s operating performance and financing structure. We also believe these measures facilitate the comparison of our operating performance and financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ( GAAP ), they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table reconciles homebuilding gross margin percentage, as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP, to the non- GAAP measure adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that leverage has on homebuilding gross margin and permits investors to make better comparisons with our competitors, who adjust gross margins in a similar fashion. Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 % 2014 % (dollars in thousands) Home sales $ 374,265 100.0 % $ 241,902 100.0 % Cost of home sales 299,907 80.1 % 191,268 79.1 % Homebuilding gross margin 74,358 19.9 % 50,634 20.9 % Add: interest in cost of home sales 6,711 1.8 % 3,300 1.4 % Add: impairments and lot option abandonments 345 0.1 % 429 0.2 % Adjusted homebuilding gross margin $ 81,414 21.8 % $ 54,363 22.5 % Homebuilding gross margin percentage 19.9 % 20.9 % Adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage 21.8 % 22.5 % 39
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (cont d)(unaudited) The merger with Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company ( WRECO ) was accounted for as a "reverse acquisition" of TRI Pointe by WRECO in accordance with ASC Topic 805, "Business Combinations." As a result, legacy TRI Pointe's financial results are not included in the combined company s GAAP results for any period prior to July 7, 2014, the closing date of the merger. This schedule provides certain supplemental financial and operations information of the combined company that is Adjusted" to include legacy TRI Pointe stand-alone operations.
