Fourth Quarter Highlights -New Home Deliveries of 1,748 for Home Sales Revenue of $1.2 Billion--Homebuilding Gross Margin Percentage of 23.3%--Selling, General and Administrative Expense as a Percentage of Home Sales Revenue of 10.3%--Diluted Earnings Per Share of $1.37- INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev., Feb. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tri Pointe Homes, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: TPH) today announced results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024 and full year 2024. “Tri Pointe Homes delivered strong fourth quarter results, capping off another exceptional year for our company,” said Tri Pointe Homes Chief Executive Officer Doug Bauer. “During the quarter, we delivered 1,748 new homes, generating $1.2 billion in home sales revenue. With our homebuilding gross margin improving 40 basis points year-over-year to 23.3% and SG&A as a percentage of home sales revenue of 10.3%, we generated net income available to common stockholders of $129 million, or $1.37 per diluted share.” “We also achieved several milestones for the full year, including delivering a record-high 6,460 new homes with net income available to common stockholders of $458 million, or $4.83 per diluted share, representing a 40% increase in diluted earnings per share year-over-year,” continued Mr. Bauer. “In addition, we generated record operating cash flows, redeemed $450 million in senior notes, and finished the year with the strongest balance sheet and liquidity in our history. Through these strong results and our disciplined capital allocation, including the repurchase of 4.0 million in shares outstanding through our stock repurchase program, we increased year-over-year book value per share by 14.5%.” “We recognize that elevated mortgage rates in the fourth quarter caused some buyers to remain on the sidelines for the short-term, resulting in softer seasonal sales in the last part of 2024,” said Tom Mitchell, Tri Pointe Homes President and Chief Operating Officer. “However, we are seeing a weekly increase in demand and reduced incentives in the early part of 2025 and are optimistic for the spring selling season. We are confident that strong long-term fundamentals, including both favorable demographics and the ongoing supply and demand imbalance, position Tri Pointe Homes and our industry for ongoing success. As a company, we continue to invest in our core market strategy, focusing on A locations, a differentiated premium product offering, and an elevated customer experience. This commitment enables us to attract a well-qualified and resilient buyer profile who desires our product, reinforcing our long-term value proposition.” Mr. Bauer concluded, “With a robust supply of over 36,000 total lots, we believe we are well-positioned to capitalize on the housing shortage and continue to grow our business, delivering strong cash flows and returns to stockholders. Our diverse product offerings, combined with the flexibility of our 54% optioned lot supply, enable us to adapt to changing market conditions and efficiently allocate capital to maximize earnings. Our strong balance sheet supports further capital returns through share repurchases, while maintaining the liquidity necessary to expand our market presence and pursue organic growth opportunities.” Results and Operational Data for Fourth Quarter 2024 and Comparisons to Fourth Quarter 2023 Net income available to common stockholders was $129.2 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, compared to $132.8 million, or $1.36 per diluted shareHome sales revenue for the quarter was $1.2 billion, a decrease of 2% New home deliveries of 1,748 homes compared to 1,813 homes, a decrease of 4%Average sales price of homes delivered of $699,000 compared to $685,000, an increase of 2% Homebuilding gross margin percentage of 23.3% compared to 22.9%, an increase of 40 basis points Excluding interest, impairments and lot option abandonments, adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 26.8%* Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense as a percentage of homes sales revenue of 10.3% compared to 9.3%, an increase of 100 basis pointsNet new home orders of 940 compared to 1,078, a decrease of 13%Active selling communities averaged 146.8 compared to 159.3, a decrease of 8% Net new home orders per average selling community decreased by 9% to 6.4 orders (2.1 monthly) compared to 6.8 orders (2.3 monthly)Cancellation rate of 14% compared to 12% Backlog units at quarter end of 1,517 homes compared to 2,320, a decrease of 35% Dollar value of backlog at quarter end of $1.2 billion compared to $1.6 billion, a decrease of 28%Average sales price in backlog at quarter end of $768,000 compared to $695,000, an increase of 11% Ratios of homebuilding debt-to-capital and net homebuilding debt-to-net capital of 21.6% and (1.6)%*, respectively, as of December 31, 2024Repurchased 1,202,913 shares of common stock at an average price of $41.57 for an aggregate dollar amount of $50.0 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2024Announced a new stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $250 million of common stock through December 31, 2025Ended fourth quarter of 2024 with total liquidity of $1.7 billion, including cash of $970.0 million and $694.1 million of availability under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility *  See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” Results and Operational Data for Full Year 2024 and Comparisons to Full Year 2023 Net income available to common stockholders was $458.0 million, or $4.83 per diluted share, compared to $343.7 million, or $3.45 per diluted shareHome sales revenue of $4.4 billion compared to $3.7 billion, an increase of 20% New home deliveries of 6,460 homes compared to 5,274 homes, an increase of 22%Average sales price of homes delivered of $679,000 compared to $693,000, a decrease of 2% Homebuilding gross margin percentage of 23.3% compared to 22.3%, an increase of 100 basis points Excluding interest, impairments and lot option abandonments, adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 26.8%* SG&A expense as a percentage of homes sales revenue of 10.8% compared to 11.0%, a decrease of 20 basis pointsNet new home orders of 5,657 compared to 6,122, a decrease of 8%Active selling communities averaged 150.4 compared to 147.5, an increase of 2% Net new home orders per average selling community decreased by 11% to 37.6 orders (3.1 monthly) compared to 41.5 orders (3.5 monthly)Cancellation rate of 10%, unchanged from the prior year Repurchased 3,964,537 shares of common stock at an average price of $36.97 for an aggregate dollar amount of $146.6 million during the full year ended December 31, 2024 *  See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” Outlook For the first quarter of 2025, the Company anticipates delivering between 900 and 1,100 homes at an average sales price between $685,000 and $695,000.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (unaudited)  In this press release, 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 tables reconcile homebuilding gross margin percentage, as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP, to the non-GAAP financial measure adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that leverage and non-cash impairments and lot option abandonments, as applicable, have on homebuilding gross margin and permits investors to make better comparisons with our competitors, who may adjust gross margins in a similar fashion.  Three Months Ended December 31,  2024  %  2023  % (dollars in thousands)Home sales revenue$1,221,405  100.0% $1,241,258  100.0%Cost of home sales 936,397  76.7%  957,322  77.1%Homebuilding gross margin 285,008  23.3%  283,936  22.9%Add:  interest in cost of home sales 41,217  3.4%  43,516  3.5%Add:  impairments and lot option abandonments 1,713  0.1%  1,482  0.1%Adjusted homebuilding gross margin$327,938  26.8% $328,934  26.5%Homebuilding gross margin percentage 23.3%    22.9%  Adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage 26.8%    26.5%    Year Ended December 31,  2024  %  2023  % (dollars in thousands)Home sales revenue$4,386,447  100.0% $3,654,035  100.0%Cost of home sales 3,363,881  76.7%  2,838,513  77.7%Homebuilding gross margin 1,022,566  23.3%  815,522  22.3%Add:  interest in cost of home sales 148,547  3.4%  116,143  3.2%Add:  impairments and lot option abandonments 4,157  0.1%  14,157  0.4%Adjusted homebuilding gross margin$1,175,270  26.8% $945,822  25.9%Homebuilding gross margin percentage 23.3%    22.3%  Adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage 26.8%    25.9%   RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (continued)(unaudited)  The following table reconciles the Company’s ratio of homebuilding debt-to-capital to the non-GAAP ratio of net homebuilding debt-to-net capital. We believe that the ratio of net homebuilding debt-to-net capital is a relevant financial measure for management and investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of the Company’s ability to obtain financing.  December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023Loans payable$270,970  $288,337 Senior notes 646,534   1,094,249 Mortgage repurchase facilities 104,098   — Total debt 1,021,602   1,382,586 Less: mortgage repurchase facilities (104,098)  — Total homebuilding debt 917,504   1,382,586 Stockholders’ equity 3,335,710   3,010,958 Total capital$4,253,214  $4,393,544 Ratio of homebuilding debt-to-capital(1) 21.6%  31.5%    Total homebuilding debt$917,504  $1,382,586 Less: Cash and cash equivalents (970,045)  (868,953)Net homebuilding debt (52,541)  513,633 Stockholders’ equity 3,335,710   3,010,958 Net capital$3,283,169  $3,524,591 Ratio of net homebuilding debt-to-net capital(2)(1.6)%  14.6% __________(1)  The ratio of homebuilding debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing total homebuilding debt by the sum of total homebuilding debt plus stockholders’ equity.(2)  The ratio of net homebuilding debt-to-net capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net homebuilding debt (which is total homebuilding debt less cash and cash equivalents) by the sum of net homebuilding debt plus stockholders’ equity. RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (continued)(unaudited)  The following table calculates the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciles those amounts to net income available to common stockholders, as reported and prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA means net income available to common stockholders before (a) interest expense, (b) expensing of previously capitalized interest included in costs of home sales, (c) income taxes and (d) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA means EBITDA before (e) amortization of stock-based compensation and (f) real estate inventory impairments and lot option abandonments. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (or similarly titled measures) differently. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures of the Company’s ability to service debt and obtain financing.  Three Months Ended December 31, Year Ended December 31,  2024   2023   2024   2023  (in thousands)Net income available to common stockholders$129,213  $132,834  $458,029  $343,702 Interest expense:       Interest incurred 23,162   35,377   114,949   147,169 Interest capitalized (23,162)  (35,377)  (114,949)  (147,169)Amortization of interest in cost of sales 41,454   43,737   150,226   116,933 Provision for income taxes 46,299   46,400   158,898   118,164 Depreciation and amortization 7,446   6,786   31,018   26,852 EBITDA 224,412   229,757   798,171   605,651 Amortization of stock-based compensation 9,182   4,907   33,509   19,919 Real estate inventory impairments and lot option abandonments 1,713   1,482   4,157   14,157 Adjusted EBITDA$235,307  $236,146  $835,837  $639,727
