NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “financial statements”) of M/I Homes, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary for a fair presentation of financial results for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Form 10-K”).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during that period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and have a significant impact on the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows. With regard to the Company, estimates and assumptions are inherent in calculations relating to valuation of inventory and investment in unconsolidated joint ventures, property and equipment depreciation, valuation of derivative financial instruments, accounts payable on inventory, accruals for costs to complete inventory, accruals for warranty claims, accruals for self-insured general liability claims, litigation, accruals for health care and workers’ compensation, accruals for guaranteed or indemnified loans, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes, and contingencies. Items that could have a significant impact on these estimates and assumptions include the risks and uncertainties listed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of our 2018 Form 10-K, as the same may be updated from time to time in our subsequent filings with the SEC.

Reclassifications

As a result of the Company's change in reportable segments, the Company recast certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements to conform with the 2019 presentation (see Note 11). These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's results of operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires organizations that lease assets - referred to as “lessees” - to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. Under ASU 2016-02, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for all lease agreements. Lessor accounting remains substantially similar to current GAAP. In addition, disclosures of leasing activities will be expanded to include qualitative and specific quantitative information. For publicly traded companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

Following the issuance of ASU 2016-02, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842 (“ASU 2018-01”), ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases (“ASU 2018-10”), ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements (“ASU 2018-11”), and ASU No. 2018-20, Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements (“ASU 2018-20”). In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements (“ASU 2019-01”) which clarifies how to apply certain aspects of the new lease standard as discussed in more detail below. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance stated in ASU 2016-02, but are instead intended to clarify and improve the operability of certain topics addressed by ASU 2016-02 and provide practical expedients for certain aspects of the guidance to aid companies in transition. These additional ASUs have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-02.

We adopted ASU 2016-02 and the subsequently issued ASUs identified above on January 1, 2019 using the additional modified retrospective transition method in accordance with ASU 2018-11, which includes a cumulative catch-up in retained earnings on the initial date of adoption (i.e., the initial date of adoption method). The adoption of the new lease standard did not have any impact on our retained earnings. At January 1, 2019, we recognized Operating Right-of-Use (“ROU”) Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities of $20.9 million on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of adopting the standard, we added certain internal controls to our control framework and ensured that these controls were designed and operating as part of

the implementation process. See Note 15 to the Company’s financial statements for the additional expanded disclosures required by the new standard.

In August 2018, the SEC issued SEC Final Rule 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which revised or eliminated certain of the SEC’s disclosure requirements that have become redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated, or superseded in light of other SEC and or GAAP disclosure requirements. As a result of the final rule’s amendments, the SEC now requires a registrant to reconcile its changes in stockholders' equity for both the current and comparative interim and year-to-date periods, with subtotals. This final rule was effective on November 5, 2018. Our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 reflect adoption of this final rule.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2020. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-13 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments -Credit Losses (“ASU 2018-19”) in November 2018, ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments (“ASU 2019-04”), in April 2019, and ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments -Credit Losses (Topic 326) Targeted Transition Relief (“ASU 2019-05”) in May 2019. These ASUs do not change the core principle of the guidance in ASU 2016-13. Instead these amendments are intended to clarify and improve operability of certain topics included within the credit losses standard. These ASUs will have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-13.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and removes the requirement to disclose (1) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, (2) the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and (3) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 requires disclosure of changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For all entities, ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 requires entities that are customers in cloud computing arrangements to defer implementation costs if they would be capitalized by the entity in software licensing arrangements under the internal-use software guidance. The guidance may be applied retrospectively or prospectively to implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. For publicly traded companies, ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements (“ASU 2019-01”), which provides clarification on implementation issues associated with adopting ASU 2016-02. The implementation issues noted in ASU 2019-01 include determining the fair value of the underlying asset by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers, presentation on the statement of cash flows for sales-type and direct financing leases, and transition disclosures related to Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. We applied the guidance on January 1, 2019, the date we adopted ASU 2016-02. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or presentation thereof.

Significant Accounting Policies

We believe that there have been no significant changes to our significant accounting policies during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 as compared to those disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, other than the changes described above under “Reclassifications” and below.

Leases

The Company leases certain office space and model homes under operating leases with remaining terms of one to six years. The Company sells model homes to investors with the express purpose of leasing the homes back as sales models for a specified period of time. Under ASC 842, the Company records the sale of the model home and the profit on the sale at the time of the home delivery.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception when the arrangement transfers the right to control the use of an identified asset to the Company. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make payments arising from the lease agreement. The Company has operating leases, but does not have any financing leases.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The lease term may include an option to extend or terminate a lease when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The exercise of these lease renewal options is generally at our discretion. The operating lease ROU assets include any lease payments made in advance and exclude any lease incentives. Lease payments include both lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The expense recognition pattern for our leases remained substantially unchanged as a result of the adoption of ASC 842. Variable lease payments consist of non-lease services related to the lease. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred. Short-term leases include leases with terms of less than one year without renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Due to our election of the practical expedient, leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. As the rate implicit in our leases is not readily determinable, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. We give consideration to our recent debt issuances as well as to the current rate available under our Credit Facility (defined below) when calculating our incremental borrowing rate. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. See Note 15 to our financial statements for further discussion.

NOTE 2. Inventory and Capitalized Interest

Inventory

Inventory is recorded at cost, unless events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the land is impaired, at which point the inventory is written down to fair value (see Note 4 to our financial statements for additional details relating to our procedures for evaluating our inventories for impairment). Inventory includes the costs of land acquisition, land development and home construction, capitalized interest, real estate taxes, direct overhead costs incurred during development and home construction, and common costs that benefit the entire community, less impairments, if any.

A summary of the Company’s inventory as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is as follows:



(In thousands)	June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Single-family lots, land and land development costs	$	804,453	$	778,943
Land held for sale	13,018		12,633
Homes under construction	796,479		730,390
Model homes and furnishings - at cost (less accumulated depreciation: June 30, 2019 - $13,132; December 31, 2018 - $13,441)	93,201		87,132
Community development district infrastructure	10,866		12,392
Land purchase deposits	32,353		33,662
Consolidated inventory not owned	13,109		19,308
Total inventory	$	1,763,479	$	1,674,460

Single-family lots, land and land development costs include raw land that the Company has purchased to develop into lots, costs incurred to develop the raw land into lots, and lots for which development has been completed, but which have not yet been used to start construction of a home.

Homes under construction include homes that are in various stages of construction. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had 1,413 homes (with a carrying value of $264.9 million) and 1,443 homes (with a carrying value of $311.0 million), respectively, included in homes under construction that were not subject to a sales contract.

Model homes and furnishings include homes that are under construction or have been completed and are being used as sales models. The amount also includes the net book value of furnishings included in our model homes. Depreciation on model home furnishings is recorded using an accelerated method over the estimated useful life of the assets, which is typically three years.

We own lots in certain communities in Florida that have Community Development Districts (“CDDs”). The Company records a liability for the estimated developer obligations that are probable and estimable and user fees that are required to be paid or transferred at the time the parcel or unit is sold to an end user. The Company reduces this liability at the time of closing and the transfer of the property. The Company recorded a $10.9 million and $12.4 million liability related to these CDD bond obligations as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, along with the related inventory infrastructure.

Land purchase deposits include both refundable and non-refundable amounts paid to third party sellers relating to the purchase of land. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates the land option agreements relating to the land purchase deposits. In the period during which the Company makes the decision not to proceed with the purchase of land under an agreement, the Company expenses any deposits and accumulated pre-acquisition costs relating to such agreement.

Capitalized Interest

The Company capitalizes interest during land development and home construction. Capitalized interest is charged to land and housing costs and expensed as the related inventory is delivered to a third party. The summary of capitalized interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands)	2019			2018			2019			2018
Capitalized interest, beginning of period	$	21,506		$	18,264		$	20,765		$	17,169
Interest capitalized to inventory	8,036			7,191			14,170			13,150
Capitalized interest charged to land and housing costs and expenses	(7,380		)	(6,203		)	(12,773		)	(11,067		)
Capitalized interest, end of period	$	22,162		$	19,252		$	22,162		$	19,252

Interest incurred	$	13,233		$	12,079		$	26,159		$	23,916

NOTE 3. Investment in Joint Venture Arrangements

Investment in Joint Venture Arrangements

In order to minimize our investment and risk of land exposure in a single location, we have periodically partnered with other land developers or homebuilders to share in the land investment and development of a property through joint ownership and development agreements, joint ventures, and other similar arrangements. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, we increased our total investment in such joint venture arrangements by $5.5 million from $35.9 million at December 31, 2018 to $41.3 million at June 30, 2019, which was driven primarily by our cash investments in our joint venture arrangements during the first half of 2019 of $15.3 million, offset, in part, by our increased lot distributions from joint venture arrangements of $9.7 million.

We believe that the Company’s maximum exposure related to its investment in these joint venture arrangements as of June 30, 2019 is the amount invested of $41.3 million, which is reported as Investment in Joint Venture Arrangements on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, although we expect to invest further amounts in these joint venture arrangements as development of the properties progresses.

We use the equity method of accounting for investments in unconsolidated joint ventures over which we exercise significant influence but do not have a controlling interest. Under the equity method, our share of the unconsolidated joint ventures’ earnings or loss, if any, is included in our consolidated statement of income. The Company assesses its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for recoverability on a quarterly basis. See Note 4 to our financial statements for additional details relating to our procedures for evaluating our investments for impairment.

For joint venture arrangements where a special purpose entity is established to own the property, we generally enter into limited liability company or similar arrangements (“LLCs”) with the other partners. The Company’s ownership in these LLCs as of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 ranged from 25% to 97%. These entities typically engage in land development activities for the purpose of distributing or selling developed lots to the Company and its partners in the LLC.

Variable Interest Entities

With respect to our investments in these LLCs, we are required, under ASC 810-10, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), to evaluate whether or not such entities should be consolidated into our consolidated financial statements. We initially perform these evaluations when each new entity is created and upon any events that require reconsideration of the entity. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Variable Interest Entities” in the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the Company’s methodology for evaluating entities for consolidation.

Land Option Agreements

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into land option or purchase agreements for which we generally pay non-refundable deposits. Pursuant to these land option agreements, the Company provides a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. In accordance with ASC 810, we analyze our land option or purchase agreements to determine whether the corresponding land sellers are variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary, as further described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Land Option Agreements” in the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K. If we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, we will consolidate the VIE in our consolidated financial statements and reflect such assets and liabilities in our Consolidated Inventory not Owned in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we concluded that we were not the primary beneficiary of any VIEs from which we are purchasing land under option or purchase agreements.

NOTE 4. Fair Value Measurements

There are three measurement input levels for determining fair value: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

Assets Measured on a Recurring Basis

The Company measures both mortgage loans held for sale and interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) at fair value. Fair value measurement results in a better presentation of the changes in fair values of the loans and the derivative instruments used to economically hedge them.

In the normal course of business, our financial services segment enters into contractual commitments to extend credit to buyers of single-family homes with fixed expiration dates. The commitments become effective when the borrowers “lock-in” a specified interest rate within established time frames. Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time of the “lock-in” of rates by the borrower and the sale date of the loan to an investor. To mitigate the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing rate lock commitments to borrowers, the Company enters into optional or mandatory delivery forward sale contracts to sell whole loans and mortgage-backed securities to broker/dealers. The forward sale contracts lock in an interest rate and price for the sale of loans similar to the specific rate lock commitments. The Company does not engage in speculative trading or derivative activities. Both the rate lock commitments to borrowers and the forward sale contracts to broker/dealers or investors are undesignated derivatives, and accordingly, are marked to fair value through earnings. Changes in fair value measurements are included in earnings in the accompanying statements of income.

The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is estimated based primarily on published prices for mortgage-backed securities with similar characteristics. To calculate the effects of interest rate movements, the Company utilizes applicable published mortgage-backed security prices, and multiplies the price movement between the rate lock date and the balance sheet date by the notional loan commitment amount. The Company sells loans on a servicing released or servicing retained basis, and receives servicing compensation. Thus, the value of the servicing rights included in the fair value measurement is based upon contractual terms with investors and depends on the loan type. The Company applies a fallout rate to IRLCs when measuring the fair value of rate lock commitments. Fallout is defined as locked loan commitments for which the Company does not close a mortgage loan and is based on management’s judgment and company experience.

The fair value of the Company’s forward sales contracts to broker/dealers solely considers the market price movement of the same type of security between the trade date and the balance sheet date. The market price changes are multiplied by the notional amount of the forward sales contracts to measure the fair value.

Interest Rate Lock Commitments. IRLCs are extended to certain home-buying customers who have applied for a mortgage loan and meet certain defined credit and underwriting criteria. Typically, the IRLCs will have a term of less than six months; however, in certain markets, the term could extend to nine months.

Some IRLCs are committed to a specific third party investor through the use of whole loan delivery commitments matching the exact terms of the IRLC loan. Uncommitted IRLCs are considered derivative instruments and are fair value adjusted, with the resulting gain or loss recorded in current earnings.

Forward Sales of Mortgage-Backed Securities. Forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (“FMBSs”) are used to protect uncommitted IRLC loans against the risk of changes in interest rates between the lock date and the funding date. FMBSs related to uncommitted IRLCs are classified and accounted for as non-designated derivative instruments and are recorded at fair value, with gains and losses recorded in current earnings.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale. Mortgage loans held for sale consists primarily of single-family residential loans collateralized by the underlying property. Generally, all of the mortgage loans and related servicing rights are sold to third-party investors shortly after origination. During the period between when a loan is closed and when it is sold to an investor, the interest rate risk is covered through the use of a whole loan contract or by FMBSs.

The table below shows the notional amounts of our financial instruments at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

Inventory. The Company assesses inventory for recoverability on a quarterly basis based on the difference in the carrying value of the inventory and its fair value at the time of the evaluation. Determining the fair value of a community’s inventory involves a number of variables, estimates and projections, which are Level 3 measurement inputs. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Inventory” in the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the Company’s methodology for determining fair value.

The Company uses significant assumptions to evaluate the recoverability of its inventory, such as estimated average selling price, construction and development costs, absorption rate (reflecting any product mix change strategies implemented or to be implemented), selling strategies, alternative land uses (including disposition of all or a portion of the land owned), or discount rates. Changes in these assumptions could materially impact future cash flow and fair value estimates and may lead the Company to incur additional impairment charges in the future. Our analysis is conducted only if indicators of a decline in value of our inventory exist, which include, among other things, declines in gross margin on sales contracts in backlog or homes that have been delivered, slower than anticipated absorption pace, declines in average sales price or high incentive offers by management to improve absorptions, declines in margins regarding future land sales, or declines in the value of the land itself as a result of third party appraisals. If communities are not recoverable based on the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not record any impairment charges on its inventory.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures. We evaluate our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for impairment on a quarterly basis based on the difference in the investment’s carrying value and its fair value at the time of the evaluation. If the Company has determined that the decline in value is other than temporary, the Company would write down the value of the investment to its estimated fair value. Determining the fair value of investments in unconsolidated joint ventures involves a number of variables, estimates and assumptions, which are Level 3 measurement inputs. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures,” in the Company’s 2018 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the Company’s methodology for determining fair value. Because of the high degree of judgment involved in developing these assumptions, it is possible that changes in these assumptions could materially impact future cash flow and fair value estimates of the investments which may lead the Company to incur additional impairment charges in the future. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not record any impairment charges on its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.

Asset Held For Sale. The Company measures assets held for sale at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and records impairment charges when the assets are deemed to be impaired. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair value. Cost to sell are accrued separately. Our home office building in Columbus, Ohio met the held for sale classification criteria for the period ended September 30, 2018 as it was being actively marketed. The carrying value of the building as of June 30, 2019 was $5.6 million.

The Company estimated the fair value of the building using the market values for similar properties, and the building was considered a Level 2 asset as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements.” During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company did not record any impairment charges on its asset held for sale.

Financial Instruments

Counterparty Credit Risk. To reduce the risk associated with losses that would be recognized if counterparties failed to perform as contracted, the Company limits the entities with whom management can enter into commitments. This risk of accounting loss is the difference between the market rate at the time of non-performance by the counterparty and the rate to which the Company committed.

The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The objective of the fair value measurement is to estimate the price at which an orderly transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions.

(a)	Our senior notes are stated at the principal amount outstanding which does not include the impact of premiums, discounts, and debt issuance costs that are amortized to interest cost over the respective terms of the notes.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures of financial instruments at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash. The carrying amounts of these items approximate fair value because they are short-term by nature.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale, Forward Sales of Mortgage-Backed Securities, Commitments to Extend Real Estate Loans, Whole loan Contracts for Committed IRLCs and Mortgage Loans Held for Sale, Senior Notes due 2021 and Senior Notes due 2025. The fair value of these financial instruments was determined based upon market quotes at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The market quotes used were quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities along with inputs taken from observable market data by correlation. The inputs were adjusted to account for the condition of the asset or liability.

Split Dollar Life Insurance Policy and Notes Receivable. The estimated fair value was determined by calculating the present value of the amounts based on the estimated timing of receipts using discount rates that incorporate management’s estimate of risk associated with the corresponding note receivable.

Notes Payable - Homebuilding Operations. The interest rate available to the Company during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 under the Company’s $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility, dated July 18, 2013, as amended (the “Credit Facility”), fluctuated daily with the one-month LIBOR rate plus a margin of 250 basis points, and thus the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value. See Note 8 to our financial statements for additional information regarding the Credit Facility.

Notes Payable - Financial Services Operations. M/I Financial, LLC (“M/I Financial”) is a party to two credit agreements: (1) a $125 million secured mortgage warehousing agreement, dated June 24, 2016, as amended (the “MIF Mortgage Warehousing

Agreement”); and (2) a $50 million mortgage repurchase agreement, dated October 30, 2017, as amended (the “MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility”). For each of these credit facilities, the interest rate is based on a variable rate index, and thus their carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The interest rate available to M/I Financial during the second quarter of 2019 fluctuated with LIBOR. See Note 8 to our financial statements for additional information regarding the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement and the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility.

Notes Payable - Other. The estimated fair value was determined by calculating the present value of the future cash flows using the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate.

Letters of Credit. Letters of credit of $58.9 million and $52.7 million represent potential commitments at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The letters of credit generally expire within one or two years. The estimated fair value of letters of credit was determined using fees currently charged for similar agreements.

NOTE 5. Guarantees and Indemnifications

In the ordinary course of business, M/I Financial, a 100%-owned subsidiary of M/I Homes, Inc., enters into agreements that guarantee certain purchasers of its mortgage loans that M/I Financial will repurchase a loan if certain conditions occur, primarily if the mortgagor does not meet the terms of the loan within the first six months after the sale of the loan. Loans totaling approximately $82.1 million and $63.6 million were covered under these guarantees as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The increase in loans covered by these guarantees from December 31, 2018 is a result of a change in the mix of investors and their related purchase terms. A portion of the revenue paid to M/I Financial for providing the guarantees on these loans was deferred at June 30, 2019, and will be recognized in income as M/I Financial is released from its obligation under the guarantees. The risk associated with the guarantees above is offset by the value of the underlying assets.

M/I Financial has received inquiries concerning underwriting matters from purchasers of its loans regarding certain loans totaling approximately $1.2 million and $0.6 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

M/I Financial has also guaranteed the collectability of certain loans to third party insurers (U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and U.S. Veterans Administration) of those loans for periods ranging from five to thirty years. As of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the total of all loans indemnified to third party insurers relating to the above agreements was $1.0 million. The maximum potential amount of future payments is equal to the outstanding loan value less the value of the underlying asset plus administrative costs incurred related to foreclosure on the loans, should this event occur.

The Company recorded a liability relating to the guarantees described above totaling $0.7 million and $0.6 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which is management’s best estimate of the Company’s liability with respect to such guarantees.

NOTE 6. Commitments and Contingencies

Warranty

We use subcontractors for nearly all aspects of home construction. Although our subcontractors are generally required to repair and replace any product or labor defects, we are, during applicable warranty periods, ultimately responsible to the homeowner for making such repairs. As such, we record warranty reserves to cover our exposure to the costs for materials and labor not expected to be covered by our subcontractors to the extent they relate to warranty-type claims. Warranty reserves are established by charging cost of sales and crediting a warranty reserve for each home delivered. Warranty reserves are recorded for warranties under our Home Builder’s Limited Warranty (“HBLW”), and our 30-year (offered on all homes sold after April 25, 1998 and on or before December 1, 2015 in all of our markets except our Texas markets), 15-year (offered on all homes sold after December 1, 2015 in all of our markets except our Texas markets) or 10-year (offered on all homes sold in our Texas markets) transferable structural warranty, in Other Liabilities on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The warranty reserves for the HBLW are established as a percentage of average sales price and adjusted based on historical payment patterns determined, generally, by geographic area and recent trends. Factors that are given consideration in determining the HBLW reserves include: (1) the historical range of amounts paid per average sales price on a home; (2) type and mix of amenity packages added to the home; (3) any warranty expenditures not considered to be normal and recurring; (4) timing of payments; (5) improvements in quality of construction expected to impact future warranty expenditures; and (6) conditions that may affect certain projects and require a different percentage of average sales price for those specific projects. Changes in estimates for warranties occur due to changes in the historical payment experience and differences between the actual payment pattern experienced during the period and the historical payment pattern used in our evaluation of the warranty reserve balance at the end of each quarter. Actual future warranty costs could differ from our current estimated amount.

Our warranty reserves for our transferable structural warranty programs are established on a per-unit basis. While the structural warranty reserve is recorded as each house is delivered, the sufficiency of the structural warranty per unit charge and total reserve is re-evaluated on an annual basis, with the assistance of an actuary, using our own historical data and trends, industry-wide historical data and trends, and other project specific factors. The reserves are also evaluated quarterly and adjusted if we encounter activity that is inconsistent with the historical experience used in the annual analysis. These reserves are subject to variability due to uncertainties regarding structural defect claims for products we build, the markets in which we build, claim settlement history, insurance and legal interpretations, among other factors.

While we believe that our warranty reserves are sufficient to cover our projected costs, there can be no assurances that historical data and trends will accurately predict our actual warranty costs.

A summary of warranty activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands)	2019			2018			2019			2018
Warranty reserves, beginning of period	$	25,220		$	24,301		$	26,459		$	26,133
Warranty expense on homes delivered during the period	3,641			3,299			6,481			5,842
Changes in estimates for pre-existing warranties	557			557			735			465
Charges related to stucco-related claims ^(a)	—			—			—			—
Settlements made during the period	(3,944		)	(4,878		)	(8,201		)	(9,161		)
Warranty reserves, end of period	$	25,474		$	23,279		$	25,474		$	23,279


(a)	These amounts represent charges for stucco-related repair costs net of recoveries from insurers during the period.

We have received claims related to stucco installation from homeowners in certain of our communities in our Tampa and Orlando, Florida markets and have been named as a defendant in legal proceedings initiated by certain of such homeowners. These claims primarily relate to homes built prior to 2014 which have second story elevations with frame construction.

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019, we did not record any additional warranty charges or receive any additional recoveries for stucco-related repair costs. At June 30, 2019, the remaining reserve for (1) homes in our Florida communities that we have identified as needing repair but have not yet completed the repair and (2) estimated repair costs for homes in our Florida communities that we have not yet identified as needing repair but that may require repair in the future included within our warranty reserve was $5.3 million. We believe that this amount is sufficient to cover both known and estimated future repair costs as of June 30, 2019. Our remaining stucco-related reserve is gross of any recoveries. Stucco-related recoveries are recorded in the period the reimbursement is received.

Our review of the stucco-related issues in our Florida communities is ongoing. Our estimate of future costs of stucco-related repairs is based on our judgment, various assumptions and internal data. Due to the degree of judgment and the potential for variability in our underlying assumptions and data, as we obtain additional information, we may revise our estimate, including to reflect additional estimated future stucco-related repairs costs, which revision could be material.

We continue to investigate the extent to which we may be able to further recover a portion of our stucco repair and claims handling costs from other sources, including our direct insurers, the subcontractors involved with the construction of the homes and their insurers. As of June 30, 2019, we are unable to estimate any additional amount that we believe is probable of recovery from these sources and, as noted above, we have not recorded a receivable for recoveries nor included an estimated amount of recoveries in determining our stucco-related warranty reserve.

Performance Bonds and Letters of Credit

At June 30, 2019, the Company had outstanding approximately $233.5 million of completion bonds and standby letters of credit, some of which were issued to various local governmental entities that expire at various times through September 2026. Included in this total are: (1) $167.7 million of performance and maintenance bonds and $48.8 million of performance letters of credit that serve as completion bonds for land development work in progress; (2) $10.0 million of financial letters of credit, of which $9.6 million represent deposits on land and lot purchase agreements; and (3) $7.0 million of financial bonds.

Land Option Contracts and Other Similar Contracts

At June 30, 2019, the Company also had options and contingent purchase agreements to acquire land and developed lots with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $574.1 million. Purchase of properties under these agreements is contingent upon satisfaction of certain requirements by the Company and the sellers.

Legal Matters

In addition to the legal proceedings related to stucco, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in certain other legal proceedings which are incidental to our business. While management currently believes that the ultimate resolution of these other legal proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, such legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties. The Company has recorded a liability to provide for the anticipated costs, including legal defense costs, associated with the resolution of these other legal proceedings. However, the possibility exists that the costs to resolve these legal proceedings could differ from the recorded estimates and, therefore, have a material effect on the Company’s net income for the periods in which they are resolved. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $0.5 million and $0.4 million reserved for legal expenses, respectively.

NOTE 7. Acquisition and Goodwill

Acquisition

In March 2018, we entered the Detroit, Michigan market through the acquisition of the homebuilding assets and operations of Pinnacle Homes for a purchase price of $101.0 million. The results of Pinnacle Homes’ operations have been included in our financial statements since March 1, 2018, the effective date of the acquisition. As a result of the transaction, we recorded $16.4 million of goodwill (all of which is tax deductible) which relates to expected synergies from establishing a market presence in Detroit, the experience and knowledge of the acquired workforce and the capital-efficient operating structure of the business acquired. The remaining basis of $84.6 million is almost entirely comprised of the fair value of the acquired inventory with an insignificant amount attributable to other assets and liabilities.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of the homebuilding assets and operations of Pinnacle Homes in Detroit, Michigan described above, the Company recorded goodwill of $16.4 million, which is included as Goodwill in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. This amount was based on the estimated fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities at the date of the acquisition in accordance with ASC 350.

In accordance with ASC 350, the Company analyzes goodwill for impairment on an annual basis (or more often if indicators of impairment exist). The Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then a quantitative assessment is performed to determine the reporting unit’s fair value. If the reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, then an impairment loss is recognized for the amount of the excess of the carrying amount over the reporting unit’s fair value. The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2018, and as no indicators for impairment existed at December 31, 2018, no impairment was recorded. In addition, no indicators for impairment existed at June 30, 2019.

NOTE 8. Debt

Notes Payable - Homebuilding

The Credit Facility provides an aggregate commitment amount of $500 million, including a $125 million sub-facility for letters of credit. The Credit Facility expires on July 18, 2021. Interest on amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility is payable at a rate which is adjusted daily and is equal to the sum of the one-month LIBOR rate plus a margin of 250 basis points. The margin is subject to adjustment in subsequent quarterly periods based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain financial covenants. At June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants of the Credit Facility.

The available amount under the Credit Facility is computed in accordance with a borrowing base, which is calculated by applying various advance rates for different categories of inventory, and totaled $669.2 million of availability for additional senior debt at June 30, 2019. As a result, the full $500 million commitment amount of the Credit Facility was available, less any borrowings and letters of credit outstanding. At June 30, 2019, there were $174.3 million of borrowings outstanding and $58.9 million of letters of credit outstanding, leaving net remaining borrowing availability of $266.8 million.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries, with the exception of subsidiaries that are primarily engaged in the business of mortgage financing, title insurance or similar financial businesses relating to the homebuilding and home sales business, certain subsidiaries that are not 100%-owned by the Company or another subsidiary, and other subsidiaries designated by the Company as Unrestricted Subsidiaries (as defined in Note 12 to our financial statements), subject to limitations on the aggregate amount invested in such Unrestricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility and the indentures for the Company’s $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”) and the Company’s $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Senior Notes”). The guarantors for the Credit Facility (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”) are the same subsidiaries that guarantee the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are general, unsecured senior obligations of the Company and the Guarantor Subsidiaries and rank equally in right of payment with all our and the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness. Our obligations under the Credit Facility are effectively subordinated to our and the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ existing and future secured indebtedness with respect to any assets comprising security or collateral for such indebtedness.

Notes Payable — Financial Services

The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement is used to finance eligible residential mortgage loans originated by M/I Financial. The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement provides for a maximum borrowing availability of $125 million. In June 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement, which, among other things, extends the expiration date to June 19, 2020 and increases the maximum borrowing availability to $160 million from September 25, 2019 to October 15, 2019 and from November 15, 2019 to February 4, 2020, which are periods of expected increases in the volume of mortgage originations. Interest on amounts borrowed under the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement is payable at a per annum rate equal to the floating LIBOR rate plus a spread of 200 basis points. The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement also contains certain financial covenants. At June 30, 2019, M/I Financial was in compliance with all financial covenants of the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement.

The MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility is used to finance eligible residential mortgage loans originated by M/I Financial. The MIF Repurchase Facility provides for a mortgage repurchase facility with a maximum borrowing availability of $50 million which increased to $65 million from November 15, 2018 through February 1, 2019, a period of higher volume of mortgage originations. The MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility expires on October 28, 2019. M/I Financial pays interest on each advance under the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility at a per annum rate equal to the floating LIBOR rate plus 200 or 225 basis points depending on the loan type. The MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility also contains certain financial covenants. At June 30, 2019, M/I Financial was in compliance with all financial covenants of the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, M/I Financial’s total combined maximum borrowing availability under the two credit facilities was $175.0 million and $225.0 million, respectively. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, M/I Financial had $104.0 million and $153.2 million outstanding on a combined basis under its credit facilities, respectively.

Senior Notes

As of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $250.0 million of our 2025 Senior Notes outstanding. The 2025 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.625% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year (commencing on February 1, 2018), and mature on August 1, 2025. We may redeem all or any portion of the 2025 Senior Notes on or after August 1, 2020 at a stated redemption price, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The redemption price will initially be 104.219% of the principal amount outstanding, but will decline to 102.813% of the principal amount outstanding if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on August 1, 2021, will further decline to 101.406% of the principal amount outstanding if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on August 1, 2022 and will further decline to 100.000% of the principal amount outstanding if redeemed on or after August 1, 2023, but prior to maturity.

As of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had $300.0 million of our 2021 Senior Notes outstanding. The 2021 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.75% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, and mature on January 15, 2021. As of January 15, 2019, we may redeem all or any portion of the 2021 Senior Notes at 101.688% of the

principal amount outstanding. This rate declines to 100.000% of the principal amount outstanding if redeemed on or after January 15, 2020, but prior to maturity.

The 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes contain certain covenants, as more fully described and defined in the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes and the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes, which limit the ability of the Company and the restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: incur additional indebtedness; make certain payments, including dividends, or repurchase any shares, in an aggregate amount exceeding our “restricted payments basket”; make certain investments; and create or incur certain liens, consolidate or merge with or into other companies, or liquidate or sell or transfer all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications as described in the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes and the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all terms, conditions, and covenants under the indentures.

The 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantor Subsidiaries. The 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes are general, unsecured senior obligations of the Company and the Guarantor Subsidiaries and rank equally in right of payment with all our and the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness. The 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes are effectively subordinated to our and the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ existing and future secured indebtedness with respect to any assets comprising security or collateral for such indebtedness.

The indenture governing our 2025 Senior Notes and the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes limit our ability to pay dividends on, and repurchase, our common shares and any of our preferred shares then outstanding to the amount of the positive balance in our “restricted payments basket,” as defined in the indentures. In each case, the “restricted payments basket” is equal to $125.0 million plus (1) 50% of our aggregate consolidated net income (or minus 100% of our aggregate consolidated net loss) from October 1, 2015, excluding income or loss from Unrestricted Subsidiaries, plus (2) 100% of the net cash proceeds from either contributions to the common equity of the Company after December 1, 2015 or the sale of qualified equity interests after December 1, 2015, plus other items and subject to other exceptions. The positive balance in our restricted payments basket was $229.6 million and $215.2 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The determination to pay future dividends on, or make future repurchases of, our common shares will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and compliance with debt covenants, and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors.

Notes Payable - Other

The Company had other borrowings, which are reported in Notes Payable - Other in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaling $5.1 million and $5.9 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which are comprised of notes payable acquired in the normal course of business.

(a)

On March 1, 2013, the Company issued $86.3 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 (the “2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes”). The 2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes were scheduled to mature on March 1, 2018 and the deadline for holders to convert the 2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes was February 27, 2018. As a result of conversion elections made by holders of the 2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes, (1) approximately $20.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes were converted and settled through the issuance of approximately 0.629 million of our common shares (at a conversion price per common share of $32.31) and (2) the Company repaid in cash approximately $65.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes at maturity.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the effect of our convertible debt then outstanding was included in the diluted earnings per share calculations.

NOTE 10. Income Taxes

During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a tax provision of $11.0 million and $5.6 million, respectively, which reflects income tax expense related to the periods’ income before income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was 26.6% and 16.8%, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a tax provision of $16.7 million and $11.4 million, respectively, which reflects income tax expense related to the periods’ income before income taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was 25.8% and 19.9%, respectively. The increase in the effective rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 from prior year was primarily attributable to a $3.0 million nonrecurring tax benefit recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 related to the retroactive reinstatement of energy efficient homes tax credits.

The Company had $1.7 million of state NOL carryforwards, net of the federal benefit, at June 30, 2019. Our state NOLs may be carried forward from one to 15 years, depending on the tax jurisdiction, with $0.7 million expiring between 2022 and 2027 and $1.0 million expiring between 2028 and 2032, absent sufficient state taxable income.

NOTE 11. Business Segments

The Company’s chief operating decision makers evaluate the Company’s performance in various ways, including: (1) the results of our 16 individual homebuilding operating segments and the results of our financial services operations; (2) the results of our homebuilding reportable segments; and (3) our consolidated financial results.

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), we have identified each homebuilding division as an operating segment and have elected to aggregate our operating segments into separate reportable segments as they share similar aggregation characteristics prescribed in ASC 280 in the following regards: (1) long-term economic characteristics; (2) historical and expected future long-term gross margin percentages; (3) housing products, production processes and methods of distribution; and (4) geographical proximity.

During 2019, we decided to wind down our Washington, D.C. operations, which we expect to substantially complete by the end of 2019. As a result, during the second quarter of 2019, we re-evaluated our reportable segments and determined that none of our separate Mid-Atlantic operating segments met the reportable criteria set forth in ASC 280. Therefore, we elected to aggregate our Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina and Washington, D.C. operating segments into our existing Southern region based on the aggregation criteria described above. All prior year segment information has been recast to conform with the 2019 presentation. The change in the reportable segments has no effect on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets, statement of income or statement of cash flows for the periods presented.

As a result of this re-evaluation, we have determined our reportable segments are: Northern homebuilding; Southern homebuilding; and financial services operations.

The homebuilding operating segments that comprise each of our reportable segments are as follows:



Northern	Southern
Chicago, Illinois	Orlando, Florida
Cincinnati, Ohio	Sarasota, Florida
Columbus, Ohio	Tampa, Florida
Indianapolis, Indiana	Austin, Texas
Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota	Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas
Detroit, Michigan	Houston, Texas
	San Antonio, Texas
	Charlotte, North Carolina
	Raleigh, North Carolina
	Washington, D.C.^(a)


(a)

During 2019, we decided to wind down our Washington, D.C. operations, which we expect to substantially complete by the end of 2019.

The following table shows, by segment: revenue, operating income and interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, as well as the Company’s income before income taxes for such periods:

(b)	Includes $0.1 million and $3.0 million of acquisition-related charges taken during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $0.6 million and $3.9 million of acquisition-related charges taken during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, as a result of our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes in Detroit, Michigan on March 1, 2018.


(c)	Represents costs which include, but are not limited to, legal fees and expenses, travel and communication expenses, cost of appraisals, accounting fees and expenses, and miscellaneous expenses related to our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes. As these costs are not eligible for capitalization as initial direct costs, such amounts are expensed as incurred.

NOTE 12. Supplemental Guarantor Information

The Company’s obligations under the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes are not guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries and, therefore, the Company has disclosed condensed consolidating financial information in accordance with SEC Regulation S-X Rule 3-10, Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered. The Guarantor Subsidiaries of the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes are the same.

The following condensed consolidating financial information includes balance sheets, statements of income and cash flow information for M/I Homes, Inc. (the parent company and the issuer of the aforementioned guaranteed notes), the Guarantor Subsidiaries, collectively, and for all other subsidiaries and joint ventures of the Company (the “Unrestricted Subsidiaries”), collectively. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is a direct or indirect 100%-owned subsidiary of M/I Homes, Inc. and has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the (1) 2025 Senior Notes on a joint and several senior unsecured basis and (2) 2021 Senior Notes on a joint and several senior unsecured basis.

There are no significant restrictions on the parent company’s ability to obtain funds from its Guarantor Subsidiaries in the form of a dividend, loan, or other means.

As of June 30, 2019, each of the Company’s subsidiaries is a Guarantor Subsidiary, with the exception of subsidiaries that are primarily engaged in the business of mortgage financing, title insurance or similar financial businesses relating to the homebuilding and home sales business, certain subsidiaries that are not 100%-owned by the Company or another subsidiary, and other subsidiaries designated by the Company as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, subject to limitations on the aggregate amount invested in such Unrestricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility and the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes and the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes.

In the condensed financial tables presented below, the parent company presents all of its 100%-owned subsidiaries as if they were accounted for under the equity method. All applicable corporate expenses have been allocated appropriately among the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

NOTE 13. Share Repurchase Program

On August 14, 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program (the “2018 Share Repurchase Program”) pursuant to which the Company may purchase up to $50 million of its outstanding common shares through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise in accordance with all applicable laws. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased 0.2 million outstanding common shares at an aggregate purchase price of $5.2 million under the 2018 Share Repurchase Program. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the second quarter of 2019. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has repurchased 1.3 million outstanding common shares at an aggregate purchase price of $30.9 million under the 2018 Share Repurchase Program and $19.1 million remains available for repurchases under the 2018 Share Repurchase Program. The timing, amount and other terms and conditions of any additional repurchases under the 2018 Share Repurchase Program will be determined by the Company’s management at its discretion based on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common shares, corporate considerations, general market and economic conditions and legal requirements. The 2018 Share Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date and the Board may modify, discontinue or suspend it at any time.

NOTE 14. Revenue Recognition

Revenue and the related profit from the sale of a home and revenue and the related profit from the sale of land to third parties are recognized in the financial statements on the date of closing if delivery has occurred, title has passed to the buyer , all performance obligations (as defined below) have been met, and control of the home or land is transferred to the buyer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for the home or land. If not received immediately upon closing, cash proceeds from home closings are held in escrow for the Company’s benefit, typically for up to three days, and are included in Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Sales incentives vary by type of incentive and by amount on a community-by-community and home-by-home basis. The costs of any sales incentives in the form of free or discounted products and services provided to homebuyers are reflected in Land and housing costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income because such incentives are identified in our home purchase contracts with homebuyers as an intrinsic part of our single performance obligation to deliver and transfer title to their home for the transaction price stated in the contracts. Sales incentives that we may provide in the form of closing cost allowances are recorded as a reduction of housing revenue at the time the home is delivered.

We record sales commissions within Selling expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income when incurred (i.e. when the home is delivered) as the amortization period is generally one year or less and therefore capitalization is not required as part of the practical expedient for incremental costs of obtaining a contract.

Contract liabilities include customer deposits related to sold but undelivered homes. Substantially all of our home sales are scheduled to close and be recorded to revenue within one year from the date of receiving a customer deposit. Contract liabilities expected to be recognized as revenue, excluding revenue pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less, is not material.

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. All of our home purchase contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the home is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, not distinct. Our performance obligation, to deliver the agreed-upon home, is generally satisfied in less than one year from the original contract date. Deferred revenue resulting from uncompleted performance obligations existing at the time we deliver new homes to our homebuyers is not material.

Although our third party land sale contracts may include multiple performance obligations, the revenue we expect to recognize in any future year related to remaining performance obligations, excluding revenue pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less, is not material. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for land sale contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less.

We recognize the majority of the revenue associated with our mortgage loan operations when the mortgage loans are sold and/or related servicing rights are sold to third party investors or retained and managed under a third party sub-service arrangement. The revenue recognized is reduced by the fair value of the related guarantee provided to the investor. The fair value of the guarantee is recognized in revenue when the Company is released from its obligation under the guarantee. We recognize financial services revenue associated with our title operations as homes are delivered, closing services are rendered, and title policies are issued, all of which generally occur simultaneously as each home is delivered. All of the underwriting risk associated with title insurance policies is transferred to third-party insurers.

The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by geography (as explained in further detail in Note 11, all prior year segment information has been recast to conform with the 2019 presentation):

NOTE 15. Operating Leases

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), using the initial date of adoption method (as defined in Note 1 above), whereby the adoption does not impact any periods prior to 2019. The Company recorded an operating ROU asset and an operating lease liability of $20.9 million on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets upon adoption. The Company elected to adopt the package of practical expedients and, accordingly, did not reassess any previously expired or existing arrangements and related classification under ASC 840. See Note 1 for further discussion on the Company’s lease accounting policy and the adoption of other practical expedients.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company has additional operating leases, which have not yet commenced, of approximately $25 million. This balance relates primarily to a new ten-year renewable lease for our corporate headquarters expected to commence in 2020.

During the first half of 2019, the Company increased both its operating ROU asset and operating lease liability by $1.1 million as a result of additional leases commencing as well as modifications to existing leases during the first half of the year. Partially offsetting this, the Company’s operating ROU asset and operating lease liability reduced by $2.6 million (which is recorded within our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in the change in Other Assets and Other Liabilities) as a result of ROU asset amortization and periodic lease expense. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s ROU asset and operating lease liability had a balance of $19.4 million on its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company had the following:



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
(Dollars in thousands)	June 30, 2019		June 30, 2019

Operating lease expense	$	1,547	$	3,092

At December 31, 2018, under ASC 840, Leases (“ASC 840”), the future minimum rental commitments totaled $22.5 million under non-cancelable operating leases with initial terms in excess of one year as follows: 2019 - $5.5 million; 2020 - $4.4 million; 2021 - $4.1 million; 2022 - $3.8 million; 2023 - $2.8 million; and $1.9 million thereafter.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

M/I Homes, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “we”) is one of the nation’s leading builders of single-family homes having sold over 114,800 homes since we commenced homebuilding activities in 1976. The Company’s homes are marketed and sold primarily under the M/I Homes brand (M/I Homes and Showcase Collection (exclusively by M/I)). In addition, the Hans Hagen brand is used in older communities in our Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota market, and, following our acquisition of the homebuilding assets and operations of Pinnacle Homes, a privately-held homebuilder in the Detroit, Michigan market (“Pinnacle Homes”), in March 2018, the Pinnacle Homes brand is used in certain communities in that market. The Company has homebuilding operations in Columbus and Cincinnati, Ohio; Indianapolis, Indiana; Chicago, Illinois; Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota; Detroit, Michigan; Tampa, Sarasota and Orlando, Florida; Austin, Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio, Texas; Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina; and the Virginia and Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C. (see “- Results of Operations - Overview” for more information regarding our decision in the first quarter of 2019 to wind down our Washington D.C. operations).

Included in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are the following topics relevant to the Company’s performance and financial condition:


•	Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements;


•	Application of Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies;


•	Results of Operations;


•	Discussion of Our Liquidity and Capital Resources;


•	Summary of Our Contractual Obligations;


•	Discussion of Our Utilization of Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements; and


•	Impact of Interest Rates and Inflation.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain information included in this report or in other materials we have filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us) contains or may contain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements regarding our future financial performance and financial condition. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “envisions,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements that we make herein and in future reports and statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results may differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements as a result of various risk factors. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Form 10-K”), as the same may be updated from time to time in our subsequent filings with the SEC, for more information regarding those risk factors.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date made. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. However, any further disclosures made on related subjects in our subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K should be consulted. This discussion is provided as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and all of our forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referenced in this section.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and various other factors that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates such estimates and assumptions and makes adjustments as deemed necessary. Actual results could differ from these estimates using different estimates and assumptions, or if conditions are significantly different in the future. See Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2018 Form 10-K for additional information about our accounting policies.

We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 as compared to those disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2018 Form 10-K, other than the changes described in Note 1 (Basis of Presentation) to our financial statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During 2019, we decided to wind down our Washington, D.C. operations, which we expect to substantially complete by the end of 2019. As a result, during the second quarter of 2019, we re-evaluated our reportable segments and determined that none of our separate Mid-Atlantic operating segments met the reportable criteria set forth in ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”). Therefore, we elected to aggregate our Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina and Washington, D.C. operating segments into our existing Southern region based on the aggregation criteria described in Note 11. All prior year segment information has been recast to conform with the 2019 presentation. The change in the reportable segments has no effect on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets, statement of income or statement of cash flows for the periods presented.

As a result of this re-evaluation, we have determined our reportable segments are: Northern homebuilding; Southern homebuilding; and financial services operations.

The homebuilding operating segments that comprise each of our reportable segments are as follows:



Northern	Southern
Chicago, Illinois	Orlando, Florida
Cincinnati, Ohio	Sarasota, Florida
Columbus, Ohio	Tampa, Florida
Indianapolis, Indiana	Austin, Texas
Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota	Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas
Detroit, Michigan	Houston, Texas
	San Antonio, Texas
	Charlotte, North Carolina
	Raleigh, North Carolina
	Washington, D.C. ^(a)


(a)	During 2019, we decided to wind down our Washington, D.C. operations, which we expect to substantially complete by the end of 2019.

Overview

For both the second quarter and first half of 2019, we achieved record levels of new contracts, homes delivered, revenue and net income. We also reached record-high income before income taxes of $41.2 million during 2019’s second quarter, increasing 23% over 2018’s $33.5 million. This improvement reflects higher homes delivered, a higher average closing price, improved overhead leverage and lower acquisition-related expenses in 2019, offset by a decline in gross margin percentage which is primarily due to rising labor costs. Our complementary financial services business also achieved record revenue in the second quarter and a record number of loans originated in both the second quarter and first half of 2019. Fundamental housing market factors were generally favorable in 2019's first half, with strong employment levels, relatively high consumer confidence and a limited supply of homes available for sale. We believe housing market conditions will remain relatively favorable during the remainder of 2019. However, we also believe rising land and labor costs may continue to impose pressure on affordability levels in many of our markets.

Favorable market conditions along with the execution of our strategic business initiatives enabled us to achieve the following record results during the quarter and first half ended June 30, 2019 in comparison to the second quarter and first half of 2018:


•	New contracts increased 6% to1,731 and less than 1% to 3,375, respectively


•	Homes delivered increased 9% to 1,538 homes and 8% to 2,724 homes, respectively


•	Average sales price of homes delivered increased 1% to $389,000 and 3% to $391,000, respectively


•	Revenue increased 12% to $623.7 million and 11% to $1.1 billion, respectively


•	Number of active communities at June 30, 2019 increased 5% to 220 - an all-time record for the Company

In addition to the record results described above, while not a second quarter record, our backlog sales value exceeded $1.12 billion at the end of the second quarter, and our company-wide absorption pace of sales per community for the second quarter of 2019 was 2.7 per month versus 2.6 per month for 2019’s first quarter.

Summary of Company Financial Results

The calculations of adjusted income before income taxes, adjusted net income, and adjusted housing gross margin, which we believe provide a clearer measure of the ongoing performance of our business, are described and reconciled to income before income taxes, net income, and housing gross margin, the financial measures that are calculated using our GAAP results, below under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Income before income taxes for the second quarter of 2019 increased 22.9% from $33.5 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $41.2 million in the second quarter 2019. Income before income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was unfavorably impacted by $0.1 million and $3.0 million of acquisition-related charges as a result of our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes in March 2018, respectively. Excluding these acquisition-related charges for both the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, adjusted income before income taxes increased 13% from $36.5 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $41.3 million in the second quarter 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, income before income taxes increased 13% from $57.4 million for the first half of 2018 to $64.7 million. Income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was unfavorably impacted by $0.6 million of acquisition-related charges as a result of our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes in March 2018. Income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was unfavorably impacted by $3.9 million of acquisition-related charges and $1.7 million of acquisition and integration costs, which were incurred as a result of our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes. Excluding these acquisition-related charges for both the first half of 2019 and 2018, adjusted income before income taxes increased 4% from $63.0 million in 2018's first half to $65.2 million in 2019's first half.

We achieved net income of $30.2 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, in 2019's second quarter, which included $0.1 million of pre-tax acquisition-related charges as discussed above. This compares to net income of $27.9 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, in 2018's second quarter, which included $3.0 million of pre-tax acquisition-related charges ($0.08 per diluted share) as discussed above. Exclusive of these charges in both periods, our adjusted net income increased $0.2 million to $30.3 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to $30.1 million in the prior year. Our effective tax rate was 26.6% in 2019’s second quarter compared to 16.8% in 2018. In the first half of 2019, we achieved net income of $48.0 million, or $1.71 per diluted share, which included $0.6 million ($0.01 per diluted share) of pre-tax acquisition-related charges as discussed above. This compares to net income of $46.0 million, or $1.56 per diluted share, in the first half of 2018, which included $3.9 million of pre-tax acquisition-related charges and a $1.7 million charge for acquisition and integration costs (collectively $0.14 per diluted share) as discussed above. Exclusive of these acquisition-related charges in both periods, our adjusted net income decreased to $48.4 million in the first half of 2019 compared to $50.1 million in the prior year. Our effective tax rate was 25.8% in 2019’s the first half compared to 19.9% in 2018’s first half.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we recorded record second quarter total revenue of $623.7 million, of which $597.9 million was from homes delivered, $11.5 million was from land sales and $14.3 million was from our financial services operations. Revenue

from homes delivered increased 10% in 2019's second quarter compared to the same period in 2018 driven primarily by a 9% increase in the number of homes delivered (129 units) and a 1% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered ($2,000 per home delivered). Revenue from land sales increased $10.3 million from the second quarter of 2018 primarily due to more land sales in our Southern region in 2019's second quarter compared to the prior year. Revenue from our financial services segment increased 20% to a second quarter record of $14.3 million in the second quarter of 2019 as a result of an increase in loans closed and sold in addition to improvement in margins on loans sold compared to 2018's second quarter. During the first half of 2019, we recorded record total revenue of $1.1 billion, of which $1.06 billion was from homes delivered, $14.5 million was from land sales and $26.1 million was from our financial services operations. Revenue from homes delivered increased 10% in 2019's first half compared to the same period in 2018 driven primarily by an 8% increase in the number of homes delivered (193 units) and a 3% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered ($10,000 per home delivered). Revenue from land sales increased 8.9 million from 2018's first half primarily due to more land sales in our Southern region in 2019's first six months compared to the prior year. Revenue from our financial services segment decreased 3% to $26.1 million in the first half of 2019 as a result of lower margins on loans sold during the period than we experienced in first half of 2018, primarily during the first quarter of 2019.

Total gross margin (total revenue less total land and housing costs) increased $11.1 million in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018 as a result of an $8.7 million improvement in the gross margin of our homebuilding operations and a $2.4 million improvement in the gross margin of our financial services operations. With respect to our homebuilding gross margin, our gross margin on homes delivered (housing gross margin) improved $8.4 million as a result of the 9% increase in the number of homes delivered and the 1% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. Our housing gross margin percentage declined 20 basis points from 17.8% in prior year's second quarter to 17.6% in 2019's second quarter. Exclusive of the $0.1 million and $3.0 million of acquisition-related charges (as discussed above) taken in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively, our adjusted housing gross margin percentage declined 70 basis points from 18.3% in prior year's second quarter to 17.6% in 2019's second quarter, primarily as a result of the mix of homes delivered during 2019's second quarter compared to the same period in the prior year as well as higher lot costs when compared to the same period in 2018. Our gross margin on land sales (land sale gross margin) improved $0.3 million as a result of more third party land sales in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018. The gross margin of our financial services operations increased $2.4 million in the second quarter compared to the second quarter of 2018 as a result of an increase in loans closed and sold in addition to improvement in margins on loans sold. Total gross margin increased $14.6 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the first half of 2018 as a result of a $15.4 million improvement in the gross margin of our homebuilding operations, offset partially by a $0.8 million decline in the gross margin of our financial services operations. With respect to our homebuilding gross margin, our gross margin on homes delivered improved $15.4 million as a result of the 8% increase in the number of homes delivered and the 3% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. Our housing gross margin percentage declined 20 basis points from 17.7% in prior year's first half to 17.5% in 2019's first six month period. Exclusive of the $0.6 million and $3.9 million of acquisition-related charges (as discussed above) taken in the first half of 2019 and 2018, respectively, our adjusted housing gross margin percentage declined 60 basis points from 18.1% in the prior year’s first half to 17.5% in 2019's first six months, primarily as a result of the mix of homes delivered during the first half of 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year as well as higher lot costs when compared to the same period in 2018. Our gross margin on land sales remained flat in 2019's first six months compared to 2018's first six months. The gross margin of our financial services operations decreased $0.8 million in the first half of 2019 compared to the first half of 2018 as a result of a decline in margins on loans sold, offset in part by increases in the number of loan originations and the average loan amount.

We opened 42 new communities during the first half of 2019. We sell a variety of home types in various communities and markets, each of which yields a different gross margin. The timing of the openings of new replacement communities as well as underlying lot costs varies from year to year. As a result, our new contracts and housing gross margin may fluctuate up or down from quarter to quarter depending on the mix of communities delivering homes.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, selling, general and administrative expense increased $3.4 million, which partially offset the increase in our gross margin dollars discussed above, but declined as a percentage of revenue from 12.6% in the second quarter of 2018 to 11.8% in the second quarter of 2019. Selling expense increased $1.9 million from 2018's second quarter but improved as a percentage of revenue to 6.0% in 2019's second quarter compared to 6.4% for the same period in 2018. Variable selling expense for sales commissions contributed $1.7 million to the increase due to the higher average sales price of homes delivered and the higher number of homes delivered in the quarter. The increase in selling expense was also attributable to a $0.2 million increase in non-variable selling expense primarily related to costs associated with our sales offices and models as a result of our increased average community count. General and administrative expense increased $1.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2018 but declined as a percentage of revenue from 6.2% in the second quarter of 2018 to 5.8% in the second quarter of 2019. The dollar increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in land related expenses due to the increase in average community count and a $0.5 million increase in compensation related expenses due to our increased headcount. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, selling, general and administrative expense increased $7.6 million, which partially offset the increase in our gross margin dollars discussed above, but declined as a percentage of revenue

from 12.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2018 to 12.3% in the first six months of 2019. Selling expense increased $3.3 million from the first half of 2018 but improved as a percentage of revenue to 6.2% in 2019’s first six months compared to 6.6% for the same period in 2018. Variable selling expense for sales commissions contributed $2.6 million to the increase due to the higher average sales price of homes delivered and the higher number of homes delivered year to date. The increase in selling expense was also attributable to a $0.7 million increase in non-variable selling expense primarily related to costs associated with our sales offices and models as a result of our increased average community count. General and administrative expense increased $4.3 million compared to the first half of 2018 but declined as a percentage of revenue from 6.3% in the first half of 2018 to 6.1% in the first half of 2019. The dollar increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to a $1.8 million increase in land related expenses due to our higher average community count, a $1.5 million increase in compensation related expenses due to our increased headcount, a $0.6 million increase in costs associated with new information systems, and a $0.4 million increase related to employee severance benefits as a result of the wind down of our Washington, D.C. operations.

Outlook

During the first half of 2019, mortgage interest rates moderated, which we believe provided a catalyst for improved consumer confidence and demand for new homes. We continue to believe that the basic underlying housing market fundamentals of low unemployment, higher wages and low inventory levels remain favorable.

We remain sensitive to changes in market conditions, with a continuing focus on increasing our profitability by generating additional revenue and improving overhead operating leverage, continuing to expand our market share, shifting our product mix to include more affordable designs, and investing in attractive land opportunities in order to increase our number of active communities.

We expect to continue to emphasize the following strategic business objectives throughout the remainder of 2019:


•	profitably growing our presence in our existing markets, including opening new communities;


•	expanding the availability of our more affordable Smart Series homes;


•	opportunistically reviewing potential new markets;


•	maintaining a strong balance sheet; and


•	emphasizing customer service, product quality and design, and premier locations.

Consistent with these objectives, we took a number of steps during the first six months of 2019 for continued improvement in our financial and operating results in 2019 and beyond, including investing $166.3 million in land acquisitions and $116.7 million in land development to help grow our presence in our existing markets. We currently estimate that we will spend approximately $550 million to $600 million on land purchases and land development in 2019, including the $283.0 million spent during the first six months of 2019. However, land transactions are subject to a number of factors, including our financial condition and market conditions, as well as satisfaction of various conditions related to specific properties. We will continue to monitor market conditions and our ongoing pace of home sales and deliveries, and we will adjust our land spending accordingly. We opened 42 communities and closed 31 communities in the first half of 2019, ending the first six months of 2019 with a total of 220 communities compared to 209 communities at June 30, 2018.

Going forward, we believe our abilities to leverage our fixed costs, obtain land at desired rates of return, and open and grow our active communities provide our best opportunities for continuing to improve our financial results. However, we can provide no assurance that the positive trends reflected in our financial and operating metrics will continue in the future.

The following table shows, by segment: revenue; gross margin; selling, general and administrative expense; operating income (loss); and interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

A home is included in “new contracts” when our standard sales contract is executed. “Homes delivered” represents homes for which the closing of the sale has occurred. “Backlog” represents homes for which the standard sales contract has been executed, but which are not included in homes delivered because closings for these homes have not yet occurred as of the end of the period specified.

The composition of our homes delivered, new contracts, net and backlog is constantly changing and may be based on a dissimilar mix of communities between periods as new communities open and existing communities wind down. Further, home types and individual homes within a community can range significantly in price due to differing square footage, option selections, lot sizes and quality and location of lots. These variations may result in a lack of meaningful comparability between homes delivered, new contracts, net and backlog due to the changing mix between periods.

Cancellation Rates

The following table sets forth the cancellation rates for each of our homebuilding segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
Northern	12.1	%	13.5	%	10.4	%	11.8	%
Southern	15.4	%	14.0	%	14.9	%	13.4	%

Total cancellation rate	14.1	%	13.7	%	13.1	%	12.7	%

Seasonality

Typically, our homebuilding operations experience significant seasonality and quarter-to-quarter variability in homebuilding activity levels. In general, homes delivered increase substantially in the second half of the year compared to the first half of the year. We believe that this seasonality reflects the tendency of homebuyers to shop for a new home in the spring with the goal of closing in the fall or winter, as well as the scheduling of construction to accommodate seasonal weather conditions. Our financial services operations also experience seasonality because loan originations correspond with the delivery of homes in our homebuilding operations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report contains information about our adjusted housing gross margin, adjusted income before income taxes and adjusted net income each of which constitutes a non-GAAP financial measure. Because adjusted housing gross margin, adjusted income before income taxes and adjusted net income are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, these financial measures may not be completely comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies in the homebuilding industry and, therefore, should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance and/or financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, these non-GAAP financial measures should be used to supplement our GAAP results in order to provide a greater understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations.

Adjusted housing gross margin, adjusted income before income taxes and adjusted net income are calculated as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,

(a)	Represents acquisition-related charges related to our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes in Detroit, Michigan on March 1, 2018.


(b)	Represents costs which include, but are not limited to, legal fees and expenses, travel and communication expenses, cost of appraisals, accounting fees and expenses, and miscellaneous expenses related to our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes. As these costs are not eligible for capitalization as initial direct costs, such amounts are expensed as incurred.

We believe adjusted housing gross margin, adjusted income before income taxes and adjusted net income are each relevant and useful financial measures to investors in evaluating our operating performance as they measure the gross profit, income before income taxes and net income we generated specifically on our operations during a given period. These non-GAAP financial measures isolate the impact that the acquisition-related charges have on housing gross margins, and that the acquisition-related charges and acquisition and integration expenses have on income before income taxes and net income, and allow investors to make comparisons with our competitors that adjust housing gross margins, income before income taxes, and net income in a similar manner. We also believe investors will find these adjusted financial measures relevant and useful because they represent a profitability measure that may be compared to a prior period without regard to variability of the charges noted above. These financial measures assist us in making strategic decisions regarding community location and product mix, product pricing and construction pace.

Year Over Year Comparison

Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2018

The calculation of adjusted housing gross margin (referred to below), which we believe provides a clearer measure of the ongoing performance of our business, is described and reconciled to housing gross margin, the financial measure that is calculated using our GAAP results, below under “Segment Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Northern Region. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, homebuilding revenue in our Northern region increased $26.0 million, from $226.9 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $252.9 million in the second quarter of 2019. This 11% increase

in homebuilding revenue was the result of an 11% increase in the number of homes delivered (60 units) and an increase in the average sales price of homes delivered ($3,000 per home delivered). Operating income in our Northern region increased $5.4 million from $19.0 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $24.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. This increase in operating income was the result of a $6.4 million improvement in our gross margin, offset partially by a $1.0 million increase in selling, general, and administrative expense. With respect to our homebuilding gross margin, our housing gross margin improved $6.5 million due to the increases in the number of homes delivered and average sales price of homes delivered noted above. Our housing gross margin percentage improved 90 basis points to 17.9% in the second quarter of 2019 from 17.0% in the prior year’s second quarter. Exclusive of the $0.1 million and $3.0 million of acquisition-related charges taken during the second quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes in Detroit, Michigan on March 1, 2018, our adjusted housing gross margin for the second quarter of 2019 declined 50 basis points to 17.9% compared to 18.4% for the second quarter of 2018. The decline in housing gross margin percentage was primarily due to changes in product type and market mix of homes delivered as well as higher lot costs compared to 2018's same period. Our land sale gross margin declined $0.1 million due to fewer strategic land sales in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $1.0 million, from $19.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 to $20.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, and declined as a percentage of revenue to 8.2% in 2019's second quarter from 8.7% in 2018's second quarter. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was attributable to a $0.4 million increase in selling expense, primarily due to an increase in variable selling expenses resulting from increases in sales commissions produced by the higher number of homes delivered and higher average sales price of homes delivered, and a $0.6 million increase in general and administrative expense primarily related to an increase in land related expenses.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we experienced a 7% increase in new contracts in our Northern region, from 656 in the second quarter of 2018 to 703 in the second quarter of 2019. The increase in new contracts was partially due to improving demand in our newer communities compared to prior year and an increase in our average number of communities during the period. Homes in backlog, however, decreased 6% from 1,330 homes at June 30, 2018 to 1,247 homes at June 30, 2019. Average sales price in backlog increased to $424,000 at June 30, 2019 compared to $420,000 at June 30, 2018 which was primarily due to changes in product type and market mix. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we opened four new communities in our Northern region compared to four during 2018's second quarter. Our monthly absorption rate in our Northern region was 2.6 per community in the second quarter of 2019, the same as in 2018's second quarter.

Southern Region. During the three month period ended June 30, 2019, homebuilding revenue in our Southern region increased $37.2 million, from $319.3 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $356.5 million in the second quarter of 2019. This 12% increase in homebuilding revenue was the result of an 8% increase in the number of homes delivered (69 units) and a slight increase in the average sales price of homes delivered ($1,000 per home delivered). Operating income in our Southern region increased $1.7 million from $24.5 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $26.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. This increase in operating income was the result of a $2.2 million improvement in our gross margin, partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in selling, general, and administrative expense. With respect to our homebuilding gross margin, our housing gross margin improved $1.8 million, due primarily to the 8% increase in the number of homes delivered noted above. Our housing gross margin percentage declined from 18.3% in prior year’s second quarter to 17.4% in the second quarter of 2019, largely due to the mix of communities delivering homes and rising lot costs. Our land sale gross margin improved $0.4 million due to more strategic land sales in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018. We did not record any additional warranty charges for stucco-related repair costs in our Florida communities during the second quarter of 2019. With respect to this matter, during the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we identified 28 additional homes in need of repair and completed repairs on 27 homes, and, at June 30, 2019, we have 165 homes in various stages of repair. See Note 6 to our financial statements for further information.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $0.5 million from $33.7 million in the second quarter of 2018 to $34.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 but declined as a percentage of revenue to 9.6% from 10.6% in the second quarter of 2018. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was attributable to a $1.6 million increase in selling expense primarily due to an increase in variable selling expenses resulting from increases in sales commissions produced by the higher number of homes delivered and higher average sales price of homes delivered. The increase in selling expense was partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in general and administrative expense, which was primarily related to a $0.7 million decrease in professional fees and a $0.6 million decrease in incentive compensation expense offset, in part, by a $0.2 million increase in land abandonment charges.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we experienced a 5% increase in new contracts in our Southern region, from 975 in the second quarter of 2018 to 1,028 in the second quarter of 2019. The increase in new contracts was primarily due to changes in product type and market mix and due to an increase in our average number of communities during the period. Homes in backlog decreased 2% from 1,636 homes at June 30, 2018 to 1,598 homes at June 30, 2019. Average sales price in backlog decreased to $373,000 at June 30, 2019 from $377,000 at June 30, 2018 due to changes in product type and market mix. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we opened 20 communities in our Southern region compared to 12 during 2018's second quarter.

Our monthly absorption rate in our Southern region was 2.7 per community in the second quarter of 2019, the same as in the second quarter of 2018.

Financial Services. Revenue from our mortgage and title operations increased $2.4 million to a second quarter record of $14.3 million in the second quarter of 2019 from $11.9 million in the second quarter of 2018 due to an increase in loans closed and sold in addition to improvement in margins on loans sold. We experienced a 12% increase in the number of loan originations, from 930 in the second quarter of 2018 to 1,037 in the second quarter of 2019, and an increase in the average loan amount from $306,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 to $308,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

We experienced a $1.7 million increase in operating income in the second quarter of 2019 compared to 2018's second quarter, which was primarily due to the increase in revenue discussed above, offset partially by a $0.7 million increase in selling, general and administrative expense compared to the second quarter of 2018. This increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation expense related to our increase in employee headcount due to new mortgage and title locations as well as an increase in professional fees.

At June 30, 2019, M/I Financial provided financing services in all of our markets.

Approximately 79% of our homes delivered during the second quarter of 2019 were financed through M/I Financial, compared to 80% in the second quarter of 2018. Capture rate is influenced by financing availability and competition in the mortgage market, and can fluctuate from quarter to quarter.

Corporate Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Corporate selling, general and administrative expense increased $1.2 million from $10.9 million for the second quarter of 2018 to $12.1 million for the second quarter of 2019. This increase primarily resulted from a $1.0 million increase in base compensation expense due to our increased headcount from our new mortgage and title offices in certain markets and a $0.2 million increase in costs associated with new information systems.

Equity in (Income) Loss from Joint Venture Arrangements. Earnings or loss from joint venture arrangements represent our portion of pre-tax earnings or loss from our joint ownership and development agreements, joint ventures and other similar arrangements. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company earned $0.2 million in equity income from joint venture arrangements. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company had less than $0.1 million in equity loss from joint venture arrangements.

Interest Expense - Net. Interest expense for the Company increased $0.3 million from $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in average borrowings under our Credit Facility (as defined below) during the second quarter of 2019 compared to prior year. Our weighted average borrowings increased from $789.8 million in 2018's second quarter to $855.0 million in 2019's second quarter, and our weighted average borrowing rate increased from 6.18% in the second quarter of 2018 to 6.22% for second quarter of 2019.

Income Taxes. Our overall effective tax rate was 26.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 16.8% for the same period in 2018. The increase in the effective rate from the three months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to a $3.0 million nonrecurring tax benefit taken during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 related to the retroactive reinstatement of energy efficient homes tax credits (see Note 10 to our financial statements for more information).

Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2018

Northern Region. During the first half of 2019, homebuilding revenue in our Northern region increased $67.7 million, from $385.5 million in the first six months of 2018 to $453.2 million in the first six months of 2019. This 18% increase in homebuilding revenue was the result of an 13% increase in the number of homes delivered (123 units, which benefited from our new Detroit division) and a 4% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered ($17,000 per home delivered) and a $0.7 million increase in land sale revenue. Operating income in our Northern region increased $9.8 million, from $31.2 million during the first half of 2018 to $41.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in operating income was primarily the result of a $13.3 million increase in our gross margin, offset, in part, by an $3.5 million increase in selling, general, and administrative expense. With respect to our homebuilding gross margin, our housing gross margin improved $13.4 million, due to the 13% increase in the number of homes delivered and the 4% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered noted above. Our housing gross margin percentage improved 40 basis points from 17.2% in the prior year's first half to 17.6% for the same period in 2019. Our housing gross margin for the first six months of 2019 and 2018 was unfavorably impacted by $0.6 million and $3.9 million of acquisition-related charges, respectively, from our recent Detroit acquisition. Exclusive of the $0.6 million and $3.9 million of acquisition-related charges, our adjusted housing gross margin percentage declined 50 basis points to 17.7% for the first half of 2019 from 18.2% primarily due to a change in product type and market mix of homes delivered compared to the prior year as well

as increased lot costs. Our land sale gross margin declined $0.2 million as a result of fewer strategic land sales in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $3.5 million, from $35.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 to $38.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, but declined as a percentage of revenue to 8.5% compared to 9.1% for the same period in 2018. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was attributable, in part, to a $2.1 million increase in selling expense due to (1) a $1.5 million increase in variable selling expenses resulting from increases in sales commissions produced by the higher average sales price of homes delivered and higher number of homes delivered, $0.6 million of which was associated with our new Detroit division, and (2) a $0.7 million increase in non-variable selling expenses primarily related to costs associated with our additional sales offices and models as a result of our increased community count, $0.4 million of which related to our new Detroit division. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was also attributable to a $1.4 million increase in general and administrative expense, which was primarily related to an increase in land related expenses as well as incremental costs from our Detroit acquisition.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we experienced a 4% increase in new contracts in our Northern region, from 1,354 in the six months ended June 30, 2018 to 1,405 in the first half of 2019 (which benefited from our new Detroit division). The increase in new contracts was due to improving demand in our newer communities compared to prior year and due to an increase in our average number of communities during the period. Homes in backlog decreased 6% from 1,330 homes at June 30, 2018 to 1,247 homes at June 30, 2019. Average sales price in backlog increased to $424,000 at June 30, 2019 compared to $420,000 at June 30, 2018 which was primarily due to product type and market mix. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we opened eight new communities in our Northern region compared to 13 during 2018's first half (excluding the 10 communities added as part of our acquisition in Detroit). Our monthly absorption rate in our Northern region declined to 2.6 per community in the first half of 2019 from 2.8 per community in the first half of 2018.

Southern Region. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, homebuilding revenue in our Southern region increased $42.0 million from $583.5 million in the first half of 2018 to $625.5 million in the first half of 2019. This 7% increase in homebuilding revenue was the result of a 4% increase in the number of homes delivered (70 units) and a 1% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered ($5,000 per home delivered), in addition to an $8.3 million increase in land sale revenue. Operating income in our Southern region increased $1.9 million from $41.9 million in the first half of 2018 to $43.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase in operating income was the result of a $2.1 million improvement in our gross margin offset by a $0.2 million increase in selling, general, and administrative expense. With respect to our homebuilding gross margin, our gross margin on homes delivered improved $2.0 million, due primarily to the 4% increase in the number of homes delivered and the 1% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered. Our housing gross margin percentage declined 60 basis points from 18.0% in prior year's first half to 17.4% in the same period in 2019, largely due to the mix of communities delivering homes and rising lot costs. Our land sale gross margin improved $0.1 million as a result of more strategic land sales in the first half of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $0.2 million from $62.7 million in the first half of 2018 to $62.9 million in the first half of 2019 but declined as a percentage of revenue to 10.1% compared to 10.7% for the first half of 2018. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was attributable to a $1.4 million increase in selling expense due to (1) a $1.2 million increase in variable selling expenses resulting from increases in sales commissions produced by the higher number of homes delivered and higher average sales price of homes delivered, and (2) a $0.2 million increase in non-variable selling expenses primarily related to costs associated with our sales offices and models as a result of our increased community count. The increase in selling expense was offset, in part, by a $1.2 million decrease in general and administrative expense, which was primarily related to a $0.8 million decrease in professional fees and a $0.7 million decrease in incentive compensation expense, partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in land related expenses.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we experienced a 2% decrease in new contracts in our Southern region, from 2,016 in the six months ended June 30, 2018 to 1,970 in the first half of 2019, and a 2% decrease in backlog from 1,636 homes at June 30, 2018 to 1,598 homes at June 30, 2019. The decreases in new contracts and backlog were primarily due to changes in product type and market mix. Average sales price in backlog decreased from $377,000 at June 30, 2018 to $373,000 at June 30, 2019 due to a change in product type and market mix. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we opened 34 communities in our Southern region compared to 25 during 2018's first half. Our monthly absorption rate in our Southern region declined to 2.6 per community in the first half of 2019 from 2.8 per community in the first half of 2018.

Financial Services. Revenue from our mortgage and title operations decreased $0.8 million (3%) from $26.9 million in the first half of 2018 to $26.1 million in the first half of 2019 due to lower margins on loans sold due to increased competitive pressures primarily during the first quarter of 2019, partially offset by a 7% increase in the number of loan originations from 1,711 in the first half of 2018 to 1,835 in the first half of 2019 and an increase in the average loan amount from $304,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2018 to $311,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

We experienced a $2.1 million decrease in operating income in the first half of 2019 compared to the first half of 2018, which was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in selling, general and administrative expense compared to 2018's first half in addition to the decrease in our revenue discussed above. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to a $0.9 million increase in compensation expense related to our increase in employee headcount and a $0.4 million increase in professional fees.

At June 30, 2019, M/I Financial provided financing services in all of our markets. Approximately 79% of our homes delivered during the first half of 2019 were financed through M/I Financial, compared to 80% in 2018's first half. Capture rate is influenced by financing availability and can fluctuate from quarter to quarter.

Corporate Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Corporate selling, general and administrative expense increased $2.6 million from $18.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 to $21.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in compensation expense, a $0.4 million increase related to benefits that will be provided to existing employees as a result of the orderly wind-down of our Washington, D.C. operations, a $0.3 million increase in depreciation costs associated with new information systems, and a $0.5 million increase in other miscellaneous expenses.

Acquisition and Integration Costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company incurred $1.7 million in acquisition and integration related costs related to our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes in Detroit, Michigan on March 1, 2018. These costs include, but are not limited to, legal fees and expenses, travel and communication expenses, cost of appraisals, accounting fees and expenses, and miscellaneous expenses. As these costs are not eligible for capitalization as initial direct costs under GAAP, such amounts are expensed as incurred.

Income from Joint Venture Arrangements. Income from joint venture arrangements represent our portion of pre-tax earnings from our joint ownership and development agreements, joint ventures and other similar arrangements. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company earned less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million in equity in income from joint venture arrangements, respectively.

Interest Expense - Net. Interest expense for the Company increased $1.2 million from $10.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 to $12.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in average borrowings under our Credit Facility (as defined below) during the first half of 2019 compared to prior year, offset, in part, by the maturity of our 3.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 (the “2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes”) in March 2018, which were not outstanding at all during the first half of 2019 and had a lower interest rate than our borrowings under our Credit Facility. Our weighted average borrowings increased from $772.4 million in the first half of 2018 to $841.3 million in the first half of 2019, and our weighted average borrowing rate increased from 6.20% in 2018's first half to 6.26% in 2019's first half.

Income Taxes. Our overall effective tax rate was 25.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 19.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in the effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to a $3.0 million nonrecurring tax benefit taken during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 related to the retroactive reinstatement of energy efficient homes tax credits (see Note 10 to our financial statements for more information).

Segment Non-GAAP Financial Measures. This report contains information about our adjusted housing gross margin, which constitutes a non-GAAP financial measure. Because adjusted housing gross margin is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this financial measure may not be completely comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies in the homebuilding industry and, therefore, should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance and/or financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, this non-GAAP financial measure should be used to supplement our GAAP results in order to provide a greater understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations.

Adjusted housing gross margin for our Northern region is calculated as follows:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview of Capital Resources and Liquidity.

At June 30, 2019, we had $20.4 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, with $19.4 million of this amount comprised of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, which represents a $1.5 million decrease in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 2018. Our principal uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were investment in land and land development, construction of homes, mortgage loan originations, investment in joint ventures, operating expenses, short-term working capital, debt service requirements, including the repayment of amounts outstanding under our credit facilities and the repurchase of $5.2 million of our outstanding common shares under our 2018 Share Repurchase Program (as defined below) during the first quarter of 2019. In order to fund these uses of cash, we used proceeds from home deliveries, the sale of mortgage loans and the sale of mortgage servicing rights, as well as excess cash balances, borrowings under our credit facilities, and other sources of liquidity.

We are actively acquiring and developing lots in our markets to replenish and grow our lot supply and active community count. We expect to continue to expand our business based on the anticipated level of demand for new homes in our markets. Accordingly, we expect that our cash outlays for land purchases, land development, home construction and operating expenses will exceed our cash generated by operations during some periods during the remainder of 2019, and we expect to continue to utilize our Credit Facility (as defined below) during the remainder of 2019.

During the first half of 2019, we delivered 2,724 homes, started 3,119 homes, and spent $166.3 million on land purchases and $116.7 million on land development. Based upon our business activity levels, market conditions, and opportunities for land in our markets, we currently estimate that we will spend approximately $550 million to $600 million on land purchases and land development during 2019, including the $283.0 million spent during the first six months of 2019.

We also continue to enter into land option agreements, taking into consideration current and projected market conditions, to secure land for the construction of homes in the future. Pursuant to such land option agreements, as of June 30, 2019, we had a total of 14,217 lots under contract, with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $574.1 million to be acquired during the remainder of 2019 through 2028.

Land transactions are subject to a number of factors, including our financial condition and market conditions, as well as satisfaction of various conditions related to specific properties. We will continue to monitor market conditions and our ongoing pace of home deliveries and adjust our land spending accordingly. The planned increase in our land spending in 2019 compared to 2018 is driven primarily by the growth of our business.

Operating Cash Flow Activities. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, we generated $10.6 million of cash from operating activities, compared to using $20.9 million of cash in operating activities during the first half of 2018. The cash generated

from operating activities in the first half of 2019 was primarily a result of net income of $48.0 million, $44.7 million of proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans net of mortgage loan originations, and an increase in accounts payable and customer deposits totaling $28.6 million, offset partially by an $89.9 million increase in inventory and a decrease in accrued compensation of $18.5 million. The $20.9 million of cash used in operating activities in the first half of 2018 was primarily a result of a $137.7 million increase in inventory and a decrease in accrued compensation of $15.5 million, offset partially by net income of $46.0 million, along with $64.9 million of proceeds from the sale of mortgage loans net of mortgage loan originations, an increase in accounts payable of $13.7 million and an increase in customer deposits totaling $11.0 million.

Investing Cash Flow Activities. During the first half of 2019, we used $16.7 million of cash in investing activities, compared to using $102.9 million of cash in investing activities during the first half of 2018. This decrease in cash used was primarily due to our acquisition of Pinnacle Homes, a privately held homebuilder in Detroit, Michigan, during the first quarter of 2018 for approximately $101.0 million (see Note 7 to our financial statements for more information), offset partially by proceeds from the sale of a portion of our mortgage servicing rights of $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2018 and an increase in our investment in joint venture arrangements during the first half of 2019 of $11.0 million.

Financing Cash Flow Activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we generated $5.0 million of cash from financing activities, compared to generating $39.9 million of cash during the first six months of 2018. The $34.9 million decrease in cash generated by financing activities was primarily due to a decrease in proceeds from borrowings (net of repayments) under our Credit Facility (as defined below) during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the repurchase of $5.2 million of our common shares under our 2018 Share Repurchase Program (as defined below) during the first quarter of 2019, partially offset by the repayment during the first quarter of 2018 of that portion of our 3.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 (the “2018 Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes”) that were not converted into common shares by the holders thereof (approximately $65.9 million in aggregate principal amount), and a decrease in net repayments of borrowings under our two M/I Financial credit facilities.

On August 14, 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program (the “2018 Repurchase Program”) pursuant to which the Company may purchase up to $50 million of its outstanding common shares (see Note 13 to our financial statements). During the first quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased 201,088 common shares with an aggregate purchase price of $5.2 million which was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under our Credit Facility. The Company did not make any additional repurchases during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, the Company is authorized to repurchase an additional $19.1 million of outstanding common shares under the 2018 Share Repurchase Program.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our ratio of homebuilding debt to capital was 45% and 44%, respectively, calculated as the carrying value of our outstanding homebuilding debt divided by the sum of the carrying value of our outstanding homebuilding debt plus shareholders’ equity. This increase was due to higher debt levels compared to December 31, 2018, offset partially by an increase in shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2019. We believe that this ratio provides useful information for understanding our financial position and the leverage employed in our operations, and for comparing us with other homebuilders.

We fund our operations with cash flows from operating activities, including proceeds from home deliveries, land sales and the sale of mortgage loans. We believe that these sources of cash, along with our balance of unrestricted cash and borrowings available under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund our currently anticipated working capital needs, investment in land and land development, construction of homes, operating expenses, planned capital spending, and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months. In addition, we routinely monitor current operational and debt service requirements, financial market conditions, and credit relationships and we may choose to seek additional capital by issuing new debt and/or equity securities to strengthen our liquidity or our long-term capital structure. The financing needs of our homebuilding and financial services operations depend on anticipated sales volume in the current year as well as future years, inventory levels and related turnover, forecasted land and lot purchases, debt maturity dates, and other factors. If we seek such additional capital, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain such additional capital on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and such additional equity or debt financing could dilute the interests of our existing shareholders and/or increase our interest costs.

The Company is a party to three primary credit agreements: (1) a $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility, dated July 18, 2013, as amended, with M/I Homes, Inc. as borrower and guaranteed by the Company’s wholly owned homebuilding subsidiaries (the “Credit Facility”); (2) a $125 million secured mortgage warehousing agreement (which increases to $160 million during certain periods), dated June 24, 2016, as amended, with M/I Financial as borrower (the “MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement”); and (3) a $50 million mortgage repurchase agreement (which increases to $65 million during certain periods), dated October 30, 2017, as amended, with M/I Financial as borrower (the “MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility”).

Included in the table below is a summary of our available sources of cash from the Credit Facility, the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement and the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility as of June 30, 2019:



(In thousands)	Expiration Date	Outstanding Balance		Available Amount
Notes payable – homebuilding^(a)	7/18/2021	$	174,300	$	266,837
Notes payable – financial services ^(b)	(b)	$	104,003	$	14,710

(a)

The available amount under the Credit Facility is computed in accordance with the borrowing base calculation under the Credit Facility, which applies various advance rates for different categories of inventory and totaled $669.2 million of availability for additional senior debt at June 30, 2019. As a result, the full $500 million commitment amount of the facility was available, less any borrowings and letters of credit outstanding. There were $174.3 million of borrowings outstanding and $58.9 million of letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2019, leaving $266.8 million available. The Credit Facility has an expiration date of July 18, 2021.

(b)

The available amount is computed in accordance with the borrowing base calculations under the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement and the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility, each of which may be increased by pledging additional mortgage collateral. The maximum aggregate commitment amount of M/I Financial’s warehousing agreements as of June 30, 2019 was $175 million. The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement has an expiration date of June 19, 2020 and the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility has an expiration date of October 28, 2019.

Notes Payable - Homebuilding.

Homebuilding Credit Facility. The Credit Facility provides for an aggregate commitment amount of $500 million, including a $125 million sub-facility for letters of credit. The Credit Facility matures on July 18, 2021. Interest on amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility is payable at a rate which is adjusted daily and is equal to the sum of the one month LIBOR rate plus a margin of 250 basis points. The margin is subject to adjustment in subsequent quarterly periods based on the Company’s leverage ratio.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility constitute senior, unsecured indebtedness and availability is subject to, among other things, a borrowing base calculated using various advance rates for different categories of inventory. The Credit Facility contains various representations, warranties and covenants which require, among other things, that the Company maintain (1) a minimum level of Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of $551.2 million (subject to increase over time based on earnings and proceeds from equity offerings), (2) a leverage ratio not in excess of 60%, and (3) either a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 1.5 to 1.0 or a minimum amount of available liquidity. In addition, the Credit Facility contains covenants that limit the Company’s number of unsold housing units and model homes, as well as the amount of Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries, with the exception of subsidiaries that are primarily engaged in the business of mortgage financing, title insurance or similar financial businesses relating to the homebuilding and home sales business, certain subsidiaries that are not 100%-owned by the Company or another subsidiary, and other subsidiaries designated by the Company as Unrestricted Subsidiaries (as defined in Note 12 to our financial statements), subject to limitations on the aggregate amount invested in such Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The guarantors for the Credit Facility are the same subsidiaries that guarantee our $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”) and our $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Senior Notes”).

As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Facility, including financial covenants. The following table summarizes the most significant restrictive covenant thresholds under the Credit Facility and our compliance with such covenants as of June 30, 2019:



Financial Covenant		Covenant Requirement		Actual
		(Dollars in millions)
Consolidated Tangible Net Worth	≥	$	551.2	$	856.0
Leverage Ratio	≤	0.60		0.47
Interest Coverage Ratio	≥	1.5 to 1.0		4.6 to 1.0
Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures	≤	$	256.8	$	3.1
Unsold Housing Units and Model Homes	≤	2,090		1,225

Notes Payable - Financial Services.

MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement. The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement is used to finance eligible residential mortgage loans originated by M/I Financial. The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement provides a maximum borrowing availability of $125 million. In June 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement, which, among other things, extends the expiration date to June 19, 2020, and allows the maximum borrowing availability to be

increased to $160 million from September 25, 2019 to October 15, 2019 and also from November 15, 2019 to February 4, 2020 (periods of higher volume of mortgage originations). Interest on amounts borrowed under the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement is payable at a per annum rate equal to the floating LIBOR rate plus a spread of 200 basis points.

The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement is secured by certain mortgage loans originated by M/I Financial that are being “warehoused” prior to their sale to investors. The MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement provides for limits with respect to certain loan types that can secure outstanding borrowings. There are currently no guarantors of the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement.

As of June 30, 2019, there was $78.2 million outstanding under the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement and M/I Financial was in compliance with all covenants thereunder. The financial covenants, as more fully described and defined in the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement, are summarized in the following table, which also sets forth M/I Financial’s compliance with such covenants as of June 30, 2019:



Financial Covenant		Covenant Requirement		Actual
		(Dollars in millions)
Leverage Ratio	≤	10.0 to 1.0		3.9 to 1.0
Liquidity	≥	$	6.25	$	25.4
Adjusted Net Income	>	$	0.0	$	12.0
Tangible Net Worth	≥	$	12.5	$	31.5

MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility. The MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility is used to finance eligible residential mortgage loans originated by M/I Financial and is structured as a mortgage repurchase facility. The MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility provides for a maximum borrowing availability of $50 million, which increased to $65 million from November 15, 2018 through February 1, 2019 (a period of expected increases in the volume of mortgage originations). The MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility expires on October 28, 2019. As is typical for similar credit facilities in the mortgage origination industry, at closing, the expiration of the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility was set at approximately one year and is under consideration for extension annually by the lender. We expect to extend the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility on or prior to the current expiration date of October 28, 2019, but we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to obtain such an extension.

M/I Financial pays interest on each advance under the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility at a per annum rate equal to the floating LIBOR rate plus 200 or 225 basis points depending on the loan type. The covenants in the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility are substantially similar to the covenants in the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement. The MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility provides for limits with respect to certain loan types that can secure outstanding borrowings, which are substantially similar to the restrictions in the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement. There are no guarantors of the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility. As of June 30, 2019, there was $25.8 million outstanding under the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility. M/I Financial was in compliance with all financial covenants under the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility as of June 30, 2019.

Senior Notes.

5.625% Senior Notes. In August 2017, the Company issued $250 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2025. The 2025 Senior Notes contain certain covenants, as more fully described and defined in the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes, which limit the ability of the Company and the restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: incur additional indebtedness; make certain payments, including dividends, or repurchase any shares, in an aggregate amount exceeding our “restricted payments basket”; make certain investments; and create or incur certain liens, consolidate or merge with or into other companies, or liquidate or sell or transfer all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications as described in the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all terms, conditions, and covenants under the indenture. See Note 8 to our financial statements for more information regarding the 2025 Senior Notes.

6.75% Senior Notes. In December 2015, the Company issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Notes due 2021. The 2021 Senior Notes contain certain covenants, as more fully described and defined in the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes, which limit the ability of the Company and the restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: incur additional indebtedness; make certain payments, including dividends, or repurchase any shares, in an aggregate amount exceeding our “restricted payments basket”; make certain investments; and create or incur certain liens, consolidate or merge with or into other companies, or liquidate or sell or transfer all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications as described in the indenture governing the 2021 Senior Notes. As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all terms, conditions, and covenants under the indenture. See Note 8 to our financial statements for more information regarding the 2021 Senior Notes.

Weighted Average Borrowings. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, our weighted average borrowings outstanding were $855.0 million and $789.8 million, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.22% and 6.18%, respectively. The increase in our weighted average borrowings related to increased borrowings under our Credit Facility during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

At June 30, 2019, we had $174.3 million of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility, an increase from $117.4 million outstanding at December 31, 2018. During the first half of 2019, the Company used the Credit Facility for investment in land and land development, construction of homes, operating expenses, working capital requirements and share repurchases under our 2018 Share Repurchase Program. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the average daily amount outstanding under the Credit Facility was $221.3 million and the maximum amount outstanding under the Credit Facility was $272.7 million. Based on our currently anticipated spending on home construction, land acquisition and development in 2019, offset by expected cash receipts from home deliveries, we expect to continue to borrow under the Credit Facility during 2019, with an estimated peak amount outstanding not expected to exceed $300 million. The actual amount borrowed during 2019 (and the estimated peak amount outstanding) and related timing are subject to numerous factors, including the timing and amount of land and house construction expenditures, payroll and other general and administrative expenses, cash receipts from home deliveries, other cash receipts and payments, any capital markets transactions or other additional financings by the Company, any repayments or redemptions of outstanding debt, any additional share repurchases under the 2018 Share Repurchase Program and any other extraordinary events or transactions. The Company may experience significant variation in cash and Credit Facility balances from week to week due to the timing of such receipts and payments.

There were $58.9 million of letters of credit issued and outstanding under the Credit Facility at June 30, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the average daily amount of letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility was $58.5 million and the maximum amount of letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility was $61.8 million.

At June 30, 2019, M/I Financial had $78.2 million outstanding under the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the average daily amount outstanding under the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement was $42.4 million and the maximum amount outstanding was $113.0 million, which occurred during January, while the temporary increase provision was in effect and the maximum borrowing availability was $160.0 million.

At June 30, 2019, M/I Financial had $25.8 million outstanding under the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the average daily amount outstanding under the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility was $24.8 million and the maximum amount outstanding was $40.2 million, which occurred during January, while the temporary increase provision was in effect and the maximum borrowing availability was $65.0 million.

Universal Shelf Registration. In June 2019, the Company filed a $400 million universal shelf registration statement with the SEC, which registration statement became effective upon filing and will expire in June 2022. Pursuant to the registration statement, the Company may, from time to time, offer debt securities, common shares, preferred shares, depositary shares, warrants to purchase debt securities, common shares, preferred shares, depositary shares or units of two or more of those securities, rights to purchase debt securities, common shares, preferred shares or depositary shares, stock purchase contracts and units. The timing and amount of offerings, if any, will depend on market and general business conditions.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations appearing in the Contractual Obligations section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Notes 3, 5 and 6 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements discuss our off-balance sheet arrangements with respect to land acquisition contracts and option agreements, and land development joint ventures, including the nature and amounts of financial obligations relating to these items. In addition, these Notes discuss the nature and amounts of certain types of commitments that arise in the ordinary course of our land development and homebuilding operations, including commitments of land development joint ventures for which we might be obligated.

Our off-balance sheet arrangements relating to our homebuilding operations include joint venture arrangements, land option agreements, guarantees and indemnifications associated with acquiring and developing land, and the issuance of letters of credit and completion bonds. Our use of these arrangements is for the purpose of securing the most desirable lots on which to build homes for our homebuyers in a manner that we believe reduces the overall risk to the Company. Additionally, in the ordinary course of its business, M/I Financial issues guarantees and indemnities relating to the sale of loans to third parties.

Land Option Agreements. In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into land option or purchase agreements for which we generally pay non-refundable deposits. Pursuant to these land option agreements, the Company provides a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. In accordance with ASC 810, we analyze our land option or purchase agreements to determine whether the corresponding land sellers are VIEs and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. Although we do not have legal title to the optioned land, ASC 810 requires a company to consolidate a VIE if the company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. In cases where we are the primary beneficiary, even though we do not have title to such land, we are required to consolidate these purchase/option agreements and reflect such assets and liabilities as Consolidated Inventory not Owned in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we have concluded that we were not the primary beneficiary of any VIEs from which we are purchasing under land option or purchase agreements.

In addition, we evaluate our land option or purchase agreements to determine for each contract if (1) a portion or all of the purchase price is a specific performance requirement, or (2) the amount of deposits and prepaid acquisition and development costs have exceeded certain thresholds relative to the remaining purchase price of the lots. If either is the case, then the remaining purchase price of the lots (or the specific performance amount, if applicable) is recorded as an asset and liability in Consolidated Inventory Not Owned on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

At June 30, 2019, “Consolidated Inventory Not Owned” was $13.1 million. At June 30, 2019, the corresponding liability of $13.1 million has been classified as Obligation for Consolidated Inventory Not Owned on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other than the Consolidated Inventory Not Owned balance, the Company currently believes that its maximum exposure as of June 30, 2019 related to our land option agreements is equal to the amount of the Company’s outstanding deposits and prepaid acquisition costs, which totaled $52.0 million, including cash deposits of $32.4 million, prepaid acquisition costs of $6.0 million, letters of credit of $9.6 million and $4.0 million of other non-cash deposits.

Letters of Credit and Completion Bonds. The Company provides standby letters of credit and completion bonds for development work in progress, deposits on land and lot purchase agreements and miscellaneous deposits. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had outstanding $233.5 million of completion bonds and standby letters of credit, some of which were issued to various local governmental entities, that expire at various times through September 2026. Included in this total are: (1) $167.7 million of performance and maintenance bonds and $48.8 million of performance letters of credit that serve as completion bonds for land development work in progress; (2) $10.0 million of financial letters of credit; and (3) $7.0 million of financial bonds. The development agreements under which we are required to provide completion bonds or letters of credit are generally not subject to a required completion date and only require that the improvements are in place in phases as houses are built and sold. In locations where development has progressed, the amount of development work remaining to be completed is typically less than the remaining amount of bonds or letters of credit due to timing delays in obtaining release of the bonds or letters of credit.

Guarantees and Indemnities. In the ordinary course of business, M/I Financial enters into agreements that guarantee purchasers of its mortgage loans that M/I Financial will repurchase a loan if certain conditions occur. The risks associated with these guarantees

are offset by the value of the underlying assets, and the Company accrues its best estimate of the probable loss on these loans. Additionally, the Company has provided certain other guarantees and indemnities in connection with the acquisition and development of land by our homebuilding operations. See Note 5 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details relating to our guarantees and indemnities.

INTEREST RATES AND INFLATION

Our business is significantly affected by general economic conditions within the United States and, particularly, by the impact of interest rates and inflation. Inflation can have a long-term impact on us because increasing costs of land, materials and labor can result in a need to increase the sales prices of homes. In addition, inflation is often accompanied by higher interest rates, which can have a negative impact on housing demand and the costs of financing land development activities and housing construction. Higher interest rates also may decrease our potential market by making it more difficult for homebuyers to qualify for mortgages or to obtain mortgages at interest rates that are acceptable to them. The impact of increased rates can be offset, in part, by offering variable rate loans with lower interest rates. In conjunction with our mortgage financing services, hedging methods are used to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations between the commitment date of the loan and the time the loan closes. Rising interest rates, as well as increased materials and labor costs, may reduce gross margins. An increase in material and labor costs is particularly a problem during a period of declining home prices. Conversely, deflation can impact the value of real estate and make it difficult for us to recover our land costs. Therefore, either inflation or deflation could adversely impact our future results of operations.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our primary market risk results from fluctuations in interest rates. We are exposed to interest rate risk through borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, consisting of the Credit Facility, the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement, and the MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility which permitted borrowings of up to $675 million as of June 30, 2019, subject to availability constraints. Additionally, M/I Financial is exposed to interest rate risk associated with its mortgage loan origination services.

Interest Rate Lock Commitments: Interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) are extended to certain homebuying customers who have applied for a mortgage loan and meet certain defined credit and underwriting criteria. Typically, the IRLCs will have a duration of less than six months; however, in certain markets, the duration could extend to nine months.

Forward Sales of Mortgage-Backed Securities: Forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (“FMBSs”) are used to protect uncommitted IRLC loans against the risk of changes in interest rates between the lock date and the funding date. FMBSs related to uncommitted IRLCs are classified and accounted for as non-designated derivative instruments and are recorded at fair value, with gains and losses recorded in current earnings.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale: Mortgage loans held for sale consist primarily of single-family residential loans collateralized by the underlying property. During the period between when a loan is closed and when it is sold to an investor, the interest rate risk is covered through the use of a whole loan contract or by FMBSs. The FMBSs are classified and accounted for as non-designated derivative instruments, with gains and losses recorded in current earnings.

The table below shows the notional amounts of our financial instruments at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:



	June 30,		December 31,
Description of Financial Instrument (in thousands)	2019		2018
Whole loan contracts and related committed IRLCs	$	3,879	$	5,823
Uncommitted IRLCs	141,479		76,117
FMBSs related to uncommitted IRLCs	141,000		83,000
Whole loan contracts and related mortgage loans held for sale	4,331		14,285
FMBSs related to mortgage loans held for sale	117,000		150,000
Mortgage loans held for sale covered by FMBSs	117,030		149,980

The table below shows the measurement of assets and liabilities at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:



	June 30,			December 31,
Description of Financial Instrument (in thousands)	2019			2018
Mortgage loans held for sale	$	123,909		$	169,651

Interest rate lock commitments	1,432			989
Whole loan contracts	(116		)	(154		)
Total	$	123,252		$	167,181

The following table sets forth the amount of gain (loss) recognized on assets and liabilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
Description (in thousands)	2019			2018			2019			2018
Mortgage loans held for sale	$	346		$	642		$	(1,017	)	$	1,317
Forward sales of mortgage-backed securities	(602		)	(658		)	1,332			(960		)
Interest rate lock commitments	470			138			428			843
Whole loan contracts	39			(61		)	53			(144		)
Total gain recognized	$	253		$	61		$	796		$	1,056

The following table provides the expected future cash flows and current fair values of borrowings under our credit facilities and mortgage loan origination services that are subject to market risk as interest rates fluctuate, as of June 30, 2019. Because the MIF Mortgage Warehousing Agreement and MIF Mortgage Repurchase Facility are effectively secured by certain mortgage loans held for sale which are typically sold within 30 to 45 days, their outstanding balances are included in the most current period presented. The interest rates for our variable rate debt represent the weighted average interest rates in effect at June 30, 2019. For fixed-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair market value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flow. Conversely, for variable-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not affect the fair market value of the debt instrument, but do affect our earnings and cash flow. We do not have the obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity, and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair market value should not have a significant impact on our fixed-rate debt until we are required or elect to refinance it.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) was performed by the Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have received claims from homeowners in certain of our communities in our Tampa and Orlando, Florida markets (and been named as a defendant in legal proceedings initiated by certain of such homeowners) related to stucco on their homes. See Note 6 to the Company’s financial statements for further information regarding these stucco claims.

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in certain other legal proceedings which are incidental to our business. While management currently believes that the ultimate resolution of these other legal proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, such legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties. The Company has recorded a liability to provide for the anticipated costs, including legal defense costs, associated with the resolution of these other legal proceedings. However, the possibility exists that the costs to resolve these legal proceedings could differ from the recorded estimates and, therefore, have a material effect on the Company’s net income for the periods in which they are resolved.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

(a) Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities — None.

(b) Use of Proceeds — Not Applicable.

There were no purchases made by, or on behalf of, the Company or any “affiliated purchaser” (as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of the Company’s common shares during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

See Note 8 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements above for more information regarding the limit imposed by the indenture governing our 2025 Senior Notes and the indenture governing our 2021 Senior Notes on our ability to pay dividends on, and repurchase, our common shares and any preferred shares of the Company then outstanding to the amount of the positive balance in our “restricted payments basket,” as defined in the indentures.

The timing, amount and other terms and conditions of any future repurchases under the 2018 Share Repurchase Program will be determined by the Company’s management at its discretion based on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s common shares, corporate considerations, general market and economic conditions and legal requirements.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities - None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures - None.

Item 5. Other Information - None.

AMENDED AND RESTATED

ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

M/I HOMES, INC.

(reflecting amendments through June 6, 2019)

[For purposes of SEC reporting compliance only]

FIRST: The name of the corporation shall be M/I Homes, Inc.


SECOND:	The place in Ohio where its principal office is to be located is Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio.


THIRD:	The purpose of said corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be formed under Sections 1701.01 through 1701.98, inclusive, of the Ohio Revised Code.


FOURTH:	The maximum number of shares which the corporation is authorized to have outstanding shall be sixty million (60,000,000) shares, consisting of fifty-eight million (58,000,000) common shares with one cent ($0.01) par value (the “Common Shares”) and two million (2,000,000) preferred shares with one cent ($0.01) par value (the “Preferred Shares”).

The express terms and provisions the Common Shares are as follows:


(a)	The rights of the Common Shares shall be subject in all respects to the rights and preferences of the Preferred Shares, in the manner and to the extent provided in this Article Fourth.

(b)

The Common Shares shall rank junior to the Preferred Shares with respect to the payment of dividends. Out of the assets of the Corporation available for dividends remaining after there shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment full dividends on all shares ranking prior to the Common Shares with respect to the payment of dividends, and subject to the restrictions or limitations contained in the express terms and provisions of all shares ranking prior to the Common Shares with respect to the payment of dividends, dividends may be declared and paid upon the Common Shares, but only when and as determined by the Board of Directors.

(c)

The Common Shares shall rank junior to the Preferred Shares with respect to payment upon dissolution, liquidation or sale of assets of the Corporation. Upon the dissolution, liquidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, after there shall have been paid to or set apart for holders of all shares ranking senior to the Common Shares the full preferential amounts to which they are respectively entitled, the holders of the Common Shares shall be entitled to receive pro rata all of the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its shareholders.


(d)	The holders of Common Shares shall be entitled to one vote for each Common Share held by them respectively.


(e)	No present or future holder of Common Shares shall, as such holder, have any preemptive rights in, or preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe to, any shares of the Corporation, or any bonds, debentures, or other securities convertible into any shares of the Corporation.

The Board of Directors shall have the authority by resolution to issue the shares of Preferred Shares from time to time on such terms as it may determine and to divide the Preferred Shares into one or more series and, in connection with the creation of any such series, to determine and fix by the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of shares thereof:


(a)	the distinctive designation of such series, the number of shares which shall constitute such series, which number may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) from time to time by action of the Board of Directors, and the stated value thereof, if different from the par value thereof;


(b)	the dividend rate, the times of payment of dividends on the shares of such series, whether dividends shall be cumulative, and, if so, from what date or dates, and the preference or relation which such dividends will bear to the dividends payable on any shares of stock of any other class or any other series of this class;


(c)	the price or prices at which, and the terms and conditions on which, the shares of such series may be redeemed;


(d)	whether or not the shares of such series shall be entitled to the benefit of a retirement or sinking fund to be applied to the purchase or redemption of such shares and, if so entitled, the amount of such fund and the terms and provisions relative to the operation thereof;

(e)

whether or not the shares of such series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, any other shares of stock of the Corporation or any other securities and, if so convertible or exchangeable, the conversion price or prices, or the rates of exchange and any adjustments thereof, at which such conversion or exchange may be made, and any other terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange;


(f)	the rights of the shares of such series in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or upon any distribution of the assets of the Corporation;

(g)

whether or not the shares of such series shall have priority over or parity with or be junior to the shares of any other class or series in any respect, or shall be entitled to the benefit of limitations restricting (i) the creation of indebtedness of the Corporation, (ii) the issuance of shares of any other class or series having priority over or being on a parity with the shares of such series in any respect, or

(iii) the payment of dividends on, the making of other distributions in respect of, or the purchase or redemption of shares of any other class or series on a parity with or ranking junior to the shares of such series as to dividends or assets, and the terms of any such restrictions, or any other restriction with respect to shares of any other class or series on a parity with or ranking junior to the shares of such series in any respect;


(h)	whether such series shall have voting rights, in addition to any voting rights provided by law and, if so, the terms of such voting rights, which may be general or limited; and


(i)	any other powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional, or other special rights of such series, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by law.

The powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of Preferred Shares, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series at any time outstanding. All shares of any one series of Preferred Shares shall be identical in all respects with all other shares of such series, except that shares of any one series issued at different times may differ as to the dates from which dividends thereon shall be cumulative.

FIFTH:

Subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth in Article FOURTH hereof, the corporation, through its Board of Directors, shall have the right and power to repurchase any of its outstanding shares of any class of stock issued by it to the extent of surplus available for cash dividends, but no such purchase shall be made so as to favor any shareholder over any other, except as herein provided.

SIXTH:

The Board of Directors is hereby authorized to fix and determine whether any surplus, and, if any, what part of the surplus, however created or arising, shall be used or disposed of or declared in dividends or paid to shareholders, and, without action by the shareholders, to use and apply surplus, or any part thereof, or such part of the stated capital of the corporation as is permitted under the provisions of Section 1701.35 of the Ohio Revised Code, or any statute of like tenor or effect which is hereafter enacted, at any time, or from time to time, in the purchase or acquisition of shares of any class, voting trust certificates for shares, bonds, debentures, notes, script, warrants, obligations, evidences of indebtedness of the corporation, or other securities of the corporation, to such extent or amount and in such manner and upon such terms as the Board of Directors shall deem expedient.

SEVENTH:

No person shall be disqualified from being a director of the corporation because he or she is or may be a party to, and no director of the corporation shall be disqualified from entering into, any contract or other transaction to which the corporation is or may be a party. No contract or other transaction to which the corporation is or may be a party shall be void or voidable for the reason that any director or officer or other agent of the corporation is a party thereto, or otherwise has any direct or indirect interest in such contract or transaction or in any other party thereto, or for reason that any interested director or officer or other agent of the corporation authorizes or participates in

authorization of such contract or transaction, (a) if the material facts as to such interest are disclosed or are otherwise known to the Board of Directors or applicable committee of directors at the time the contract or transaction is authorized, and at least a majority of the disinterested directors or disinterested members of the committee vote for or otherwise take action authorizing such contract or transaction, even though such disinterested directors or members are less than a quorum, or (b) if the contract or transaction (i) is not less favorable to the corporation than an arm’s length contract or transaction in which no director or officer or other agent of the corporation has any interest or (ii) is otherwise fair to the corporation as of the time it is authorized. Any interested director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at any meeting of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction.

EIGHTH:

The provisions of Section 1701.13(E)(5)(a) of the Ohio Revised Code or any statute of like tenor or effect which is hereafter enacted shall not apply to the corporation. The corporation shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by any provision of applicable law other than Section 1701.13(E)(5)(a) of the Ohio Revised Code or any statute of like tenor or effect which is hereafter enacted, indemnify each director and officer against any and all costs and expenses (including attorney fees, judgments, fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement, and other disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred by or imposed upon such person in connection with any action, suit, investigation or proceeding (or any claim or other matter therein), whether civil, criminal, administrative or otherwise in nature, including any settlements thereof or any appeals therein, with respect to which such person is named or otherwise becomes or is threatened to be made a party by reason of being or at any time having been a director or officer of the corporation, or by any reason of being or at any time having been, while such a director or officer, an employee or other agent of the corporation or, at the direction or request of the corporation, a director, trustee, officer, administrator, manager, employee, adviser or other agent of or fiduciary for any other corporation, partnership, trust, venture or other entity or enterprise including any employee benefit plan.

The corporation shall indemnify any other person to the extent such person shall be entitled to indemnification under Ohio law by reason of being successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of an action to which such person is named a party by reason of being an employee or other agent of the corporation, and the corporation may further indemnify any such person if it is determined on a case by case basis by the Baard of Directors that indemnification is proper in the specific case.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles of Incorporation, no person shall be indemnified to the extent, if any, it is determined by the Board of Directors or by written opinion of legal counsel designated by the Board of Directors for such purpose that indemnification is contrary to applicable law.

NINTH:

No holder of shares of any class of the corporation shall have preemptive or preferential rights to subscribe for, or to purchase, any shares of the corporation of any series or class, whether now or hereafter authorized, and the Board of Directors of the corporation may issue shares of the corporation or obligations convertible into shares without offering such issues in whole or in part to the shareholders of the corporation.
