TRI POINTE GROUP, INC.
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
 

1.
Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization
TRI Pointe is engaged in the design, construction and sale of innovative single-family attached and detached homes through its portfolio of six quality brands across ten states, including Maracay in Arizona, Pardee Homes in California and Nevada, Quadrant Homes in Washington, Trendmaker Homes in Texas, TRI Pointe Homes in California, Colorado and the Carolinas and Winchester Homes in Maryland and Virginia.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), as contained within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation with respect to interim financial statements, have been included. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2020 due to seasonal variations and other factors, such as the effects of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and its influence on our future results.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TRI Pointe Group and its wholly owned subsidiaries, as well as other entities in which TRI Pointe Group has a controlling interest and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which TRI Pointe Group is the primary beneficiary.  The noncontrolling interests as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 represent the outside owners’ interests in the Company’s consolidated entities.  All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from our estimates.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Topic 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, we apply the following steps to determine the timing and amount of revenue to recognize: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
Home sales revenue
We generate the majority of our total revenues from home sales, which consists of our core business operation of building and delivering completed homes to homebuyers. Home sales revenue and related profit is generally recognized when title to and possession of the home is transferred to the homebuyer at the home closing date. Our performance obligation to deliver the agreed-upon home is generally satisfied in less than one year from the original contract date. Included in home sales revenue are forfeited deposits, which occur when homebuyers cancel home purchase contracts that include a nonrefundable deposit. Both revenue from forfeited deposits and deferred revenue resulting from uncompleted performance obligations existing at the time we deliver new homes to our homebuyers are immaterial.
Land and lot sales revenue

- 7 -



Historically, we have generated land and lot sales revenue from a small number of transactions, although in some years we have realized a significant amount of revenue and gross margin. We do not expect our future land and lot sales revenue to be material, but we still consider these sales to be an ordinary part of our business, thus meeting the definition of contracts with customers. Similar to our home sales, revenue from land and lot sales is typically fully recognized when the land and lot sales transactions are consummated, at which time no further performance obligations are left to be satisfied. Some of our historical land and lot sales have included future profit participation rights. We will recognize future land and lot sales revenue in the periods in which all closing conditions are met, subject to the constraint on variable consideration related to profit participation rights, if such rights exist in the sales contract.
Other operations revenue
The majority of our homebuilding other operations revenue relates to a ground lease at our Quadrant Homes reporting segment. We are responsible for making lease payments to the landowner, and we collect sublease payments from the buyers of the buildings. This ground lease is accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases. We do not recognize a material profit on this ground lease.
Financial services revenues
TRI Pointe Solutions is a reportable segment and is comprised of our TRI Pointe Connect mortgage financing operations, TRI Pointe Assurance title and escrow services operations, and TRI Pointe Advantage property and casualty insurance agency operations.
Mortgage financing operations
TRI Pointe Connect was formed as a joint venture with an established mortgage lender and is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.  We record a percentage of income earned by TRI Pointe Connect based on our ownership percentage in this joint venture. TRI Pointe Connect activity appears as equity in income of unconsolidated entities under the Financial Services section of our consolidated statements of operations.
Title and escrow services operations
TRI Pointe Assurance provides title examinations for our homebuyers in Austin, Colorado and Maryland and both title examinations and escrow services for our homebuyers in Arizona, Nevada, Texas and Virginia.  TRI Pointe Assurance is a wholly owned subsidiary of TRI Pointe and acts as a title agency for First American Title Insurance Company. Revenue from our title and escrow services operations is fully recognized at the time of the consummation of the home sales transaction, at which time no further performance obligations are left to be satisfied. TRI Pointe Assurance revenue is included in the Financial Services section of our consolidated statements of operations.
Property and casualty insurance agency operations
TRI Pointe Advantage is a wholly owned subsidiary of TRI Pointe and provides property and casualty insurance agency services that help facilitate the closing process in all of the markets in which we operate. The total consideration for these services, including renewal options, is estimated upon the issuance of the initial insurance policy, subject to constraint. TRI Pointe Advantage revenue is included in the Financial Services section of our consolidated statements of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2020. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2019-12 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which removes the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and applied prospectively. We adopted ASU 2017-04 on January 1, 2020 and our adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

- 8 -



In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial InstrumentsCredit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which replaces the 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 for financial instruments, including receivables from community facilities districts or similar municipalities. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 and our adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


2.
Segment Information
We operate two principal businesses: homebuilding and financial services.
Our homebuilding operations consist of six homebuilding brands that acquire and develop land and construct and sell single-family detached and attached homes. In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, in determining the most appropriate reportable segments, we considered similar economic and other characteristics, including product types, average selling prices, gross profits, production processes, suppliers, subcontractors, regulatory environments, land acquisition results, and underlying demand and supply. Based upon these factors, our homebuilding operations are comprised of the following six reportable segments: Maracay, consisting of operations in Arizona; Pardee Homes, consisting of operations in California and Nevada; Quadrant Homes, consisting of operations in Washington; Trendmaker Homes, consisting of operations in Texas; TRI Pointe Homes, consisting of operations in California and Colorado, as well as early stage operations in the Carolinas; and Winchester Homes, consisting of operations in Maryland and Virginia.
Our TRI Pointe Solutions financial services operation is a reportable segment and is comprised of our TRI Pointe Connect mortgage financing operations, our TRI Pointe Assurance title and escrow services operations, and our TRI Pointe Advantage property and casualty insurance agency operations. For further details, see Note 1, Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Corporate is a non-operating segment that develops and implements company-wide strategic initiatives and provides support to our homebuilding reporting segments by centralizing certain administrative functions, such as marketing, legal, accounting, treasury, insurance, internal audit and risk management, information technology and human resources, to benefit from economies of scale. Our Corporate non-operating segment also includes general and administrative expenses related to operating our corporate headquarters. A portion of the expenses incurred by Corporate is allocated to the homebuilding reporting segments.
The reportable segments follow the same accounting policies used for our consolidated financial statements, as described in Note 1, Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Operational results of each reportable segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the reportable segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

Homes completed or under construction is comprised of costs associated with homes in various stages of construction and includes direct construction and related land acquisition and land development costs. Land under development primarily consists of land acquisition and land development costs, which include capitalized interest and real estate taxes, associated with land undergoing improvement activity. Land held for future development principally reflects land acquisition and land development costs related to land where development activity has not yet begun or has been suspended, but is expected to occur in the future. The increase in land held for future development is attributable to two projects located in the Inland Empire in California at our Pardee Homes reporting segment that were transferred from land under development.
Real estate inventories not owned represents deposits related to land purchase and land and lot option agreements, as well as consolidated inventory held by variable interest entities. For further details, see Note 7, Variable Interest Entities.

Interest is capitalized to real estate inventory during development and other qualifying activities. During all periods presented, we capitalized all interest incurred to real estate inventory in accordance with ASC Topic 835, Interest, as our qualified assets exceeded our debt. Interest that is capitalized to real estate inventory is included in cost of home sales or cost of land and lot sales as related units or lots are delivered.  Interest that is expensed as incurred is included in other (expense) income, net.
Real Estate Inventory Impairments and Land Option Abandonments

Impairments of real estate inventory relate primarily to projects or communities that include homes completed or under construction. Within a project or community, there may be individual homes or parcels of land that are currently held for sale. Impairment charges recognized as a result of adjusting individual held-for-sale assets within a community to estimated fair value less cost to sell are also included in the total impairment charges. No real estate inventory impairments were recorded for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.
In addition to owning land and residential lots, we also have option agreements to purchase land and lots at a future date. We have option deposits and capitalized pre-acquisition costs associated with the optioned land and lots. When the economics of a project no longer support acquisition of the land or lots under option, we may elect not to move forward with the acquisition. Option deposits and capitalized pre-acquisition costs associated with the assets under option may be forfeited at that time. 
Real estate inventory impairments and land option abandonments are recorded in cost of home sales and cost of land and lot sales on the consolidated statements of operations.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
As of March 31, 2020, we held equity investments in five active homebuilding partnerships or limited liability companies and one financial services limited liability company. Our participation in these entities may be as a developer, a builder, or an investment partner. Our ownership percentage varies from 7% to 65%, depending on the investment, with no controlling interest held in any of these investments.
Unconsolidated Financial Information
Aggregated assets, liabilities and operating results of the entities we account for as equity-method investments are provided below. Because our ownership interest in these entities varies, a direct relationship does not exist between the information presented below and the amounts that are reflected on our consolidated balance sheets as our investments in unconsolidated entities or on our consolidated statements of operations as equity in income of unconsolidated entities.

7.
Variable Interest Entities
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land and lot option agreements in order to procure land and residential lots for future development and the construction of homes. The use of such land and lot option agreements generally allows us to reduce the risks associated with direct land ownership and development, and reduces our capital and financial commitments. Pursuant to these land and lot option agreements, we generally provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. These deposits are recorded as land purchase and land option deposits under real estate inventories not owned on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
We analyze each of our land and lot option agreements and other similar contracts under the provisions of ASC 810, Consolidation to determine whether the land seller is a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. Although we do not have legal title to the underlying land, if we are determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, we will consolidate the VIE in our financial statements and reflect its assets as real estate inventory not owned included in our real estate inventories, its liabilities as debt (nonrecourse) held by VIEs in accrued expenses and other liabilities and the net equity of the VIE owners as noncontrolling interests on our consolidated balance sheets. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider, among other things, whether we have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Such activities would include, among other things, determining or limiting the scope or purpose of the VIE, selling or transferring property owned or controlled by the VIE, or arranging financing for the VIE.
Creditors of the entities with which we have land and lot option agreements have no recourse against us. The maximum exposure to loss under our land and lot option agreements is generally limited to non-refundable option deposits and any capitalized pre-acquisition costs. In some cases, we have also contracted to complete development work at a fixed cost on behalf of the landowner and budget shortfalls and savings will be borne by us. Additionally, we have entered into land banking arrangements which require us to complete development work even if we terminate the option to procure land or lots.

Amortization expense related to this intangible asset was $134,000 for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. Amortization of this intangible was charged to sales and marketing expense.  Our $17.3 million indefinite life intangible asset related to the TRI Pointe Homes trade name is not amortizing.  All trade names and goodwill are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist.

On March 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which amended and restated the Company’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 7, 2015. The Credit Facility (as defined below), which matures on March 29, 2023, consists of a $600 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) and a $250 million term loan facility (the “Term Facility” and together with the Revolving Facility, the “Credit Facility”). The Term Facility includes a 90-day delayed draw provision that allowed the Company to draw the full $250 million from the Term Facility in June 2019 in connection with the maturity of the 4.375% Senior Notes that matured on June 15, 2019. The Company may increase the Credit Facility to not more than $1 billion in the aggregate, at its request, upon satisfaction of specified conditions. The Revolving Facility contains a sublimit of $75 million for letters of credit. The Company may borrow under the Revolving Facility in the ordinary course of business to repay senior notes and fund its operations, including its land acquisition, land development and homebuilding activities. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility will be governed by, among other things, a borrowing base. Interest rates on borrowings under the Revolving Facility will be based on either a daily Eurocurrency base rate or a Eurocurrency rate, in either case, plus a spread ranging from 1.25%

- 17 -



to 2.00%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. Interest rates on borrowings under the Term Facility will be based on either a daily Eurocurrency base rate or a Eurocurrency rate, in either case, plus a spread ranging from 1.10% to 1.85%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.
As of March 31, 2020, we had $500 million of outstanding debt under the Revolving Facility with an interest rate of 2.15% per annum and there was $53.4 million of availability after considering the borrowing base provisions and outstanding letters of credit. As of March 31, 2020, we had $250 million outstanding debt under the Term Facility with an interest rate of 2.93%. As of March 31, 2020, there were $4.0 million of capitalized debt financing costs, included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheet, related to the Credit Facility that will amortize over the remaining term of the Credit Facility.  Accrued interest, including loan commitment fees, related to the Credit Facility was $1.4 million and $1.2 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had outstanding letters of credit of $46.6 million and $32.6 million, respectively.  These letters of credit were issued to secure various financial obligations.  We believe it is not probable that any outstanding letters of credit will be drawn upon.
Interest Incurred
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred interest of $20.8 million and $23.4 million, respectively, related to all debt during the period.  Included in interest incurred was amortization of deferred financing and Senior Note discount costs of $1.3 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Accrued interest related to all outstanding debt at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $18.9 million and $12.0 million, respectively. 
Covenant Requirements
The Senior Notes contain covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things, create liens or other encumbrances, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, or merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets. These limitations are subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions.
Under the Credit Facility, the Company is required to comply with certain financial covenants, including those relating to consolidated tangible net worth, leverage, liquidity or interest coverage, and a spec unit inventory test. The Credit Facility also requires that at least 97.0% of consolidated tangible net worth must be attributable to the Company and its guarantor subsidiaries, subject to certain grace periods.
The Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Fair Value Disclosures
Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines “fair value” as the price that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at measurement date and requires assets and liabilities carried at fair value to be classified and disclosed in the following three categories:
Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are inactive; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets at measurement date
Level 3—Valuations derived from techniques where one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable in active markets at measurement date

The book value of the Senior Notes is net of discounts, excluding deferred loan costs of $10.4 million and $11.1 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Senior Notes at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is based on quoted market prices.
(2) 
The estimated fair value of the Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility as of March 31, 2020 approximated book value due to the variable interest rate terms of these loans.

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and receivables approximated fair value due to their short-term nature and variable interest rate terms.
Fair Value of Nonfinancial Assets
Nonfinancial assets include items such as real estate inventories and long-lived assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when events and circumstances indicating the carrying value is not recoverable. No carrying values were adjusted to fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2020 or the year ended December 31, 2019.

Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
Lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been and may be instituted or asserted against us in the normal course of business, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. We are also subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, employment practices, environmental protection and financial services. As a result, we are subject to periodic examinations or inquiry by agencies administering these laws and regulations.
We record a reserve for potential legal claims and regulatory matters when they are probable of occurring and a potential loss is reasonably estimable. We accrue for these matters based on facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revise these estimates when necessary.  In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting outcomes of legal claims and related contingencies, we generally cannot predict their ultimate resolution, related timing or eventual loss. Accordingly, it is possible that the ultimate outcome of any matter, if in excess of a related accrual or if no accrual was made, could be material to our financial statements.  For matters as to which the Company believes a loss is probable and reasonably estimable, we had $319,000 and $419,000 of legal reserves as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
Warranty
Warranty reserves are accrued as home deliveries occur. Our warranty reserves on homes delivered will vary based on product type and geographic area and also depending on state and local laws. The warranty reserve is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets and represents expected future costs based on our historical experience over previous years. Estimated warranty costs are charged to cost of home sales in the period in which the related home sales revenue is recognized.
We maintain general liability insurance designed to protect us against a portion of our risk of loss from warranty and construction defect-related claims. We also generally require our subcontractors and design professionals to indemnify us for liabilities arising from their work, subject to various limitations. However, such indemnity is significantly limited with respect to certain subcontractors that are added to our general liability insurance policy. 
Our warranty reserve and related estimated insurance recoveries are based on actuarial analysis that uses our historical claim and expense data, as well as industry data to estimate these overall costs and related recoveries. Key assumptions used in

- 19 -



developing these estimates include claim frequencies, severities and resolution patterns, which can occur over an extended period of time. These estimates are subject to variability due to the length of time between the delivery of a home to a homebuyer and when a warranty or construction defect claim is made, and the ultimate resolution of such claim; uncertainties regarding such claims relative to our markets and the types of product we build; and legal or regulatory actions and/or interpretations, among other factors. Due to the degree of judgment involved and the potential for variability in these underlying assumptions, our actual future costs could differ from those estimated. There can be no assurance that the terms and limitations of the limited warranty will be effective against claims made by homebuyers, that we will be able to renew our insurance coverage or renew it at reasonable rates, that we will not be liable for damages, cost of repairs, and/or the expense of litigation surrounding possible construction defects, soil subsidence or building related claims or that claims will not arise out of uninsurable events or circumstances not covered by insurance and not subject to effective indemnification agreements with certain subcontractors.
We also record expected recoveries from insurance carriers based on actual insurance claims made and actuarially determined amounts that depend on various factors, including the above-described reserve estimates, our insurance policy coverage limits for the applicable policy years and historical recovery rates. Because of the inherent uncertainty and variability in these assumptions, our actual insurance recoveries could differ significantly from amounts currently estimated. Outstanding warranty insurance receivables were $40.0 million as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Warranty insurance receivables are recorded in receivables on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Performance Bonds
We obtain surety bonds in the normal course of business to ensure completion of certain infrastructure improvements of our projects. The beneficiaries of the bonds are various municipalities. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding surety bonds totaling $627.3 million and $611.6 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our estimated cost to complete obligations related to these surety bonds was $399.9 million and $382.3 million, respectively.
Lease Obligations
Under ASC 842 we recognize a right-of-use lease asset and a lease liability for contracts deemed to contain a lease at the inception of the contract. Our lease population is fully comprised of operating leases, which are now recorded at the net present value of future lease obligations existing at each balance sheet date. At the inception of a lease, or if a lease is subsequently modified, we determine whether the lease is an operating or financing lease. Key estimates involved with ASC 842 include the discount rate used to measure our future lease obligations and the lease term, where considerations include renewal options and intent to renew. Lease right-of-use assets are included in other assets and lease liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet.
Operating Leases
We lease certain property and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. Office leases are for terms of up to ten years and generally provide renewal options. In most cases, we expect that, in the normal course of business, leases that expire will be renewed or replaced by other leases. Equipment leases are typically for terms of three to four years.
Ground Leases
In 1987, we obtained two 55-year ground leases of commercial property that provided for three renewal options of ten years each and one 45-year renewal option.  We exercised the three ten-year extensions on one of these ground leases to extend the lease through 2071.  The commercial buildings on these properties have been sold and the ground leases have been sublet to the buyers.

- 20 -



For one of these leases, we are responsible for making lease payments to the landowner, and we collect sublease payments from the buyers of the buildings. This ground lease has been subleased through 2041 to the buyers of the commercial buildings. For the second lease, the buyers of the buildings are responsible for making lease payments directly to the landowner, however, we have guaranteed the performance of the buyers/lessees.

Stock-Based Compensation
2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan
The Company’s stock compensation plan, the 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2013 Incentive Plan”), was adopted by TRI Pointe in January 2013 and amended, with the approval of our stockholders, in 2014 and 2015. In addition, our board of directors amended the 2013 Incentive Plan in 2014 to prohibit repricing (other than in connection with any equity restructuring or any change in capitalization) of outstanding options or stock appreciation rights without stockholder approval. The 2013 Incentive Plan provides for the grant of equity-based awards, including options to purchase shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights, bonus stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance awards. The 2013 Incentive Plan will automatically expire on the tenth anniversary of its effective date. Our board of directors may terminate or amend the 2013 Incentive Plan at any time, subject to any requirement of stockholder approval required by applicable law, rule or regulation.
As amended, the number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under the 2013 Incentive Plan is 11,727,833 shares. To the extent that shares of our common stock subject to an outstanding option, stock appreciation right, stock award or performance award granted under the 2013 Incentive Plan are not issued or delivered by reason of the expiration, termination, cancellation or forfeiture of such award or the settlement of such award in cash, then such shares of our common stock generally shall again be available under the 2013 Incentive Plan. As of March 31, 2020, there were 5,318,795 shares available for future grant under the 2013 Incentive Plan.

The intrinsic value of each stock option award outstanding or exercisable is the difference between the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the end of the period and the exercise price of each stock option award to the extent it is considered “in-the-money”. A stock option award is considered to be “in-the-money” if the fair market value of the Company’s stock is greater than the exercise price of the stock option award. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable represents the value that would have been received by the holders of stock option awards had they exercised their stock option award on the last trading day of the period and sold the underlying shares at the closing price on that day.

RSUs that vested, as reflected in the table above, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 include previously granted time-based RSUs. RSUs that were forfeited, as reflected in the table above, during the three months ended March 31, 2020 include performance-based RSUs and time-based RSUs that were forfeited for no consideration.

On February 20, 2020, the Company granted an aggregate of 547,166 performance-based RSUs to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and President, Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel, Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Human Resources Officer. These performance-based RSUs are allocated to two separate performance metrics, as follows: (i) 50% to homebuilding revenue, and (ii) 50% to pre-tax earnings. The vesting, if at all, of these performance-based RSUs may range from 0% to 100% and will be based on the Company’s percentage attainment of specified threshold, target and maximum performance goals. Any award earned based on performance achieved may be increased or decreased by 25% based on the Company’s total stockholder return (“TSR'”) relative to its peer-group homebuilders. The performance period for these performance-based RSUs is January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022. The fair value of these performance-based RSUs was determined to be $19.36 per share based on a Monte Carlo simulation. Each award will be expensed over the requisite service period.

On February 20, 2020, the Company granted an aggregate of 207,300 performance-based RSUs to the Company’s division presidents. These performance-based RSUs are allocated to two separate performance metrics, as follows: (i) 50% to homebuilding revenue of the applicable Company division, and (ii) 50% to pre-tax earnings of the applicable Company division. The vesting, if at all, of these performance-based RSUs may range from 0% to 100% and will be based on the applicable Company division’s percentage attainment of specified threshold, target and maximum performance goals. The performance period for these performance-based RSUs is January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022. The fair value of these performance-based RSUs was measured using a price of $18.39, which was the closing stock price on the date of grant. Each award will be expensed over the requisite service period.

On March 9, 2020 and February 20, 2020, the Company granted an aggregate of 17,692 and 639,395, respectively, time-based RSUs to certain employees and officers. The RSUs granted vest in equal installment annually on the anniversary of the grant date over a three-year period. The fair value of each RSU granted on March 9, 2020 and February 20, 2020 was measured using a price of $14.13 and $18.39 per share, respectively, which were the closing stock prices on the dates of grant. Each award will be expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

On May 6, 2019, the Company granted an aggregate of 61,488 time-based RSUs to the non-employee members of its board of directors and 1,098 time-based RSUs to certain employees. The RSUs granted to non-employee directors vest in their entirety on the day immediately prior to the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders and the RSUs granted to employees vest in equal installments annually on the anniversary of the grant date over a three-year period. The fair value of each RSU granted on May 6, 2019 was measured using a price of $13.66 per share which was the closing stock price on the date of grant. Each award will be expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
On March 11, 2019 and February 28, 2019, the Company granted an aggregate of 3,025 and 990,723, respectively, of time-based RSUs to certain employees and officers. The RSUs granted vest in equal installments annually on the anniversary of the grant date over a three-year period.  The fair value of each RSU granted on March 11, 2019 and February 28, 2019 was measured using a price of $13.22 and $12.60 per share, respectively, which were the closing stock prices on the dates of grant. Each award will be expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

On February 28, 2019, the Company granted 247,619, 238,095 and 114,285 performance-based RSUs to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President, and Chief Financial Officer, respectively. These performance-based RSUs are allocated to two separate performance metrics, as follows: (i) 30% to TSR, with vesting based on the Company’s TSR relative to its peer-group homebuilders; and (ii) 70% to earnings per share. The vesting, if at all, of these performance-based RSUs may range from 0% to 100% and will be based on the Company’s percentage attainment of specified threshold, target and maximum performance goals. The performance period for these performance-based RSUs is January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021. The fair value of the performance-based RSUs related to the TSR metric was determined to be $8.16 per share based on a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value of the performance-based RSUs related to the earnings per share goal was measured using a price of $12.60 per share, which was the closing stock price on the date of grant. Each award will be expensed over the requisite service period.
As RSUs vest for employees, a portion of the shares awarded is generally withheld to cover employee tax withholdings. As a result, the number of RSUs vested and the number of shares of TRI Pointe common stock issued will differ.

Income Taxes
We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires an asset and liability approach for measuring deferred taxes based on temporary differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the years in which taxes are expected to be paid or recovered.  Each quarter we assess our deferred tax asset to determine whether all or any portion of the asset is more likely than not unrealizable under ASC 740.  We are required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion of the asset we conclude is more likely than not to be unrealizable.  Our assessment considers, among other things, the nature, frequency and severity of our current and cumulative losses, forecasts of our future taxable income, the duration of statutory carryforward periods and tax planning alternatives.
We had net deferred tax assets of $46.3 million and $49.9 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.  We had a valuation allowance related to those net deferred tax assets of $3.5 million as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.  The Company will continue to evaluate both positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. Changes in positive and negative evidence, including differences between the Company’s future operating results and the estimates utilized in the determination of the valuation allowance, could result in changes in the Company’s estimate of the valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation allowance against the Company’s deferred tax assets.
TRI Pointe has certain liabilities to Weyerhaeuser Company (“Weyerhaeuser”) related to a tax sharing agreement.  As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had an income tax liability to Weyerhaeuser of $346,000. The income tax liability to Weyerhaeuser is recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we amended our existing tax sharing agreement with Weyerhaeuser, pursuant to which the parties agreed, among other things, that we had no further obligation to remit payment to Weyerhaeuser in connection with any potential utilization of certain deductions or losses associated with certain Weyerhaeuser entities with respect to federal and state taxes. As a result of the amendment, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, we decreased our income tax liability to Weyerhaeuser and recorded other income of $6.0 million, which is included in other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Our provision for income taxes totaled $9.8 million and $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company classifies any interest and penalties related to income taxes assessed by jurisdiction as part of income tax expense.  The Company had $486,000 of uncertain tax positions recorded as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.  The Company has not been assessed interest or penalties by any major tax jurisdictions related to prior years.

Supplemental Guarantor Information
2021 Notes and 2027 Notes
On May 26, 2016, TRI Pointe Group issued the 2021 Notes. On June 5, 2017, TRI Pointe Group issued the 2027 Notes. All of TRI Pointe Group’s 100% owned subsidiaries that are guarantors (each a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”) of the Credit Facility, including TRI Pointe Homes, are party to supplemental indentures pursuant to which they jointly and severally guarantee TRI Pointe Group’s obligations with respect to the 2021 Notes and the 2027 Notes. Each Guarantor of the 2021 Notes and the 2027 Notes is 100% owned by TRI Pointe Group, and all guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to customary exceptions pursuant to the indentures governing the 2021 Notes and the 2027 Notes, as described in the following paragraph. All of our non-Guarantor subsidiaries have nominal assets and operations and are considered minor, as defined in Rule 3-10(h) of Regulation S-X. In addition, TRI Pointe Group has no independent assets or operations, as defined in Rule 3-10(h) of Regulation S-X. There are no significant restrictions upon the ability of TRI Pointe Group or any Guarantor to obtain funds from any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries by dividend or loan. None of the assets of our subsidiaries represent restricted net assets pursuant to Rule 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X.
A Guarantor of the 2021 Notes and the 2027 Notes shall be released from all of its obligations under its guarantee if (i) all of the assets of the Guarantor have been sold; (ii) all of the equity interests of the Guarantor held by TRI Pointe Group or a subsidiary thereof have been sold; (iii) the Guarantor merges with and into TRI Pointe Group or another Guarantor, with TRI Pointe Group or such other Guarantor surviving the merger; (iv) the Guarantor is designated “unrestricted” for covenant purposes; (v) the Guarantor ceases to guarantee any indebtedness of TRI Pointe Group or any other Guarantor which gave rise to such Guarantor guaranteeing the 2021 Notes or the 2027 Notes; (vi) TRI Pointe Group exercises its legal defeasance or covenant defeasance options; or (vii) all obligations under the applicable supplemental indenture are discharged.
2024 Notes
TRI Pointe Group and TRI Pointe Homes are co-issuers of the 2024 Notes. All of the Guarantors (other than TRI Pointe Homes) have entered into supplemental indentures pursuant to which they jointly and severally guarantee the obligations of TRI Pointe Group and TRI Pointe Homes with respect to the 2024 Notes. Each Guarantor of the 2024 Notes is 100% owned by TRI Pointe Group and TRI Pointe Homes, and all guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to customary exceptions pursuant to the indentures governing the 2024 Notes, as described below.
A Guarantor of the 2024 Notes shall be released from all of its obligations under its guarantee if (i) all of the assets of the Guarantor have been sold; (ii) all of the equity interests of the Guarantor held by TRI Pointe or a subsidiary thereof have been sold; (iii) the Guarantor merges with and into TRI Pointe or another Guarantor, with TRI Pointe or such other Guarantor surviving the merger; (iv) the Guarantor is designated “unrestricted” for covenant purposes; (v) the Guarantor ceases to guarantee any indebtedness of TRI Pointe or any other Guarantor which gave rise to such Guarantor guaranteeing the 2024 Notes; (vi) TRI Pointe exercises its legal defeasance or covenant defeasance options; or (vii) all obligations under the applicable indenture are discharged.
Presented below are the condensed consolidating balance sheets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, condensed consolidating statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and condensed consolidating statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 Because TRI Pointe’s non-Guarantor subsidiaries are considered minor, as defined in Rule 3-10(h) of Regulation S-X, the non-Guarantor subsidiaries’ information is not separately presented in the tables below, but is included with the Guarantors. Additionally, because TRI Pointe Group has no independent assets or operations, as defined in Rule 3-10(h) of Regulation S-X, the condensed consolidated financial

the effect of general economic conditions, including employment rates, housing starts, interest rate levels, availability of financing for home mortgages and strength of the U.S. dollar;
market demand for our products, which is related to the strength of the various U.S. business segments and U.S. and international economic conditions;
the availability of desirable and reasonably priced land and our ability to control, purchase, hold and develop such parcels;
access to adequate capital on acceptable terms;
geographic concentration of our operations, particularly within California;
levels of competition;
the successful execution of our internal performance plans, including restructuring and cost reduction initiatives;
raw material and labor prices and availability;
oil and other energy prices;
the effect of U.S. trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and duties on homebuilding products and retaliatory measures taken by other countries;

- 32 -



the effect of weather, including the re-occurrence of drought conditions in California;  
the risk of loss from earthquakes, volcanoes, fires, floods, droughts, windstorms, hurricanes, pest infestations and other natural disasters, and the risk of delays, reduced consumer demand, and shortages and price increases in labor or materials associated with such natural disasters;
the risk of loss from acts of war, terrorism or outbreaks of contagious diseases, such as COVID-19;
transportation costs;
federal and state tax policies;
the effect of land use, environment and other governmental laws and regulations;
legal proceedings or disputes and the adequacy of reserves;
risks relating to any unforeseen changes to or effects on liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, indebtedness, financial condition, losses and future prospects;
changes in accounting principles;
risks related to unauthorized access to our computer systems, theft of our homebuyers’ confidential information or other forms of cyber-attack; and
other factors described in “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related condensed notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is not a complete description of our business or the risks associated with an investment in our securities. We urge investors to review and consider carefully the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and subsequent reports on Form 8-K, which discuss our business in greater detail. The section entitled “Risk Factors” set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and similar disclosures in our other SEC filings, discuss some of the important risk factors that may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Investors should carefully consider those risks, in addition to the information in this report and in our other filings with the SEC, before deciding to invest in, or maintain an investment in, our common stock.
Overview
Our first quarter 2020 results reflect positive momentum from 2019, aided by favorable housing market fundamentals, including low interest rates and a relatively constrained supply of homes. While our first quarter 2020 results were positive, and reflect the highest first quarter demand in our history, the emergence of COVID-19 has impacted, and will continue to impact, our business and operations.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States issued a proclamation declaring a national emergency concerning COVID-19. As a result of the pandemic, in the United States, a number of states and municipalities issued shelter-in-place orders or similar mandates for individuals not engaged in essential activities to remain at home other than for essential needs. Most of the states, counties and cities in which we operate have designated residential homebuilding as an essential business activity, which has allowed us to continue operations in such markets. However, in jurisdictions where homebuilding has not been deemed an essential business activity, including Seattle, Washington and the Bay Area in California, we have generally ceased construction activities. Notwithstanding, we can continue to sell homes in these jurisdictions through digital platforms.
In response to the WHO declaration and governmental shelter-in-place orders, we implemented new operating measures relating to our sales, construction and other operations, including protocols relating to social distancing, enhanced sanitation, monitoring of symptoms related to COVID-19 and other processes. Under these measures, we have encouraged employees at our corporate and division offices whose duties could be performed from home to work remotely until further notice; our new home galleries and design studios have transitioned to virtual appointments or appointment-only with pre-screened individuals, as permitted by law; we have instituted mandatory social distancing and hygiene/sanitation guidelines in accordance with recommended protocols throughout the organization (including in our new home sales galleries and design studios, and with respect to trade partners and their employees on our jobsites); and we have postponed non-essential customer care service and warranty requests. We have continued to encourage our construction team members to report to their assigned communities in the jurisdictions where homebuilding has been deemed an essential activity or is otherwise permitted by applicable government authorities. We have also encouraged our employees to use our virtual working and communication platforms in lieu of holding in-person meetings whenever possible.

Highlights of the quarter include a monthly absorption rate of 3.9, resulting in 1,661 net new home orders, up 26% from the prior year. As of the end of the quarter, we had 2,455 units in backlog, representing $1.6 billion in backlog dollar value, up 33% and 31% from the prior-year period, respectively. For the quarter, we delivered 958 homes at an average sales price of $621,000 during the quarter, resulting in home sales revenue of $594.8 million. Our homebuilding gross margin percentage for the quarter was 20.5% and we ended the quarter with net income of $31.9 million. In addition, we ended the quarter with total liquidity of $677.5 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $624.1 million and $53.4 million of availability under our unsecured revolving credit facility.
Our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not indicative of trends that we expect to persist as uncertainty caused by COVID-19 has impacted, and will continue to impact, our business and operations.
Impact of COVID-19 and Business Outlook
The COVID-19 outbreak and the measures taken by governmental authorities to contain its spread have resulted in substantial adverse effects on the United States economy, and while we cannot predict with any certainty what the future will hold, we expect that the United States will experience an economic recession along with financial stress that is reminiscent of the 2008 global financial crisis. The full impact of COVID-19 on the United States economy and our business and operations remains unknown, as the velocity of this economic slowdown and the subsequent job losses are unique and historical in many ways. While we expect that the homebuilding industry will be impacted by these events, given the dynamic nature of the situation, we cannot reasonably estimate the duration and severity of such impact. However, we anticipate that such impacts may include reduced consumer confidence, difficulties in obtaining financing for potential homebuyers, shortages of or increased costs associated with obtaining building materials, increased unemployment levels, declining wage growth and fluctuating interest rates. The uncertainty surrounding the containment of this virus, in the form of testing, vaccination and/or treatments, is a key unknown, and the ultimate strategy adopted to address the pandemic will substantially impact the form of any resulting economic recovery. Similarly, the extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our liquidity and operational and financial performance will depend on, among other things, existing and future federal, state and local restrictions regarding virus containment, as we believe these factors are highly correlated with consumer strength as it relates to employment and economic well-being.
As of the date of this report, applicable authorities in the State of Washington and the Bay Area in California have issued orders that have required us to cease construction activities, which we anticipate will have a material and adverse impact on our ability to meet applicable development and construction timelines, as well as sales activity, in such markets in the event such prohibitions remain in effect for a significant duration. While we continue to build and sell homes in almost all of our markets, net new orders and traffic in our sales offices have both slowed significantly due to the impact of COVID-19. With a near shutdown of large portions of our national economy, we expect home sales to continue to slow and both incentives and cancellations to increase, even while we maintain and enhance our sales, construction and closing operations. Further, the new protocols we implemented in response to the WHO declaration and governmental shelter-in-place orders affected our business and operations during the last several weeks of the first quarter, and continue to affect our business and operations as of the date of this report, in many regards, including by delaying home deliveries, requiring a substantial investment of time and resources by our management and organization and causing other material disruptions to our normal operations.
As noted above, as of March 31, 2020, we had total liquidity of $677.5 million. We have implemented a strategy to maximize operating cash flows and maintain our existing liquidity by reducing or deferring cash expenditures as much as possible, including negotiating with land sellers and developers to extend the closing date of land acquisitions and lot take-downs, as well as postponing land development activities for certain communities.

Net new home orders for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased by 340 orders, or 26%, to 1,661, compared to 1,321 during the prior-year period.  The increase in net new home orders was due to a 32% increase in monthly absorption rates, offset by a 5% decrease in average selling communities. New home order demand was exceptionally strong through January and February of 2020, and remained strong into early March before the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures taken to contain its spread, as well as the resulting consumer impact, dramatically shifted demand across all of our markets. Net new home orders and monthly absorption rates were severely impacted during the second half of March and, as of the date of this report, continue to be impacted into April. As a result, our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not indicative of trends that we expect to persist as uncertainty caused by COVID-19 has impacted, and will continue to impact, our business and operations.
Maracay reported a 49% increase in net new home orders driven by a 30% increase in average selling communities and a 15% increase in monthly absorption rates. The increase in Maracay’s monthly absorption rate to 5.2 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was driven by strong demand for Maracay’s new community openings during the current-year period as well as strong market fundamentals in Arizona throughout most of the quarter. Pardee Homes reported a 10% increase in net new home orders largely driven by an 18% increase in monthly absorption rates offset by a 7% decrease in average selling communities. The increase in monthly absorption rate was due to strong demand environments in our Los Angeles, Inland Empire, San Diego and Las Vegas markets. Net new home orders increased 68% at Quadrant Homes due to a 73% increase in monthly absorption rate during the current-year period as compared to the prior-year period. The increase in monthly absorption rate to 6.0 was due to a more stable demand environment for most of the quarter compared to the prior-year period. Trendmaker Homes’ net new home orders decreased 4% due to a 23% decrease in average selling communities offset by a 25% increase in monthly absorption rate. We experienced stronger demand in our Houston and Austin markets for most of the quarter, while demand in our Dallas–Fort Worth market decreased slightly. In addition to the impacts from COVID-19 beginning in mid-March 2020, we believe the Houston market was impacted during the last several weeks of the quarter by the Russia and Saudi Arabia oil price conflict, as the energy sector comprises a substantial percentage of the Houston economy and the uncertainty stemming from these events likely resulted in a negative impact on housing demand. TRI Pointe Homes’ net new home orders increased 40% due to a 32% increase in the monthly absorption rate and a 6% increase in average selling communities. The increase in TRI Pointe Homes’ monthly absorption rate was driven by stronger market conditions in both our California and Colorado markets compared to the prior-year period. Winchester Homes reported a 51% increase in net new home orders as a result of a 53% increase in monthly absorption rate. The increase in Winchester Homes’ monthly absorption rate was due to strong order demand and more favorable overall market conditions compared to the prior-year period.

Backlog units reflect the number of homes, net of actual cancellations experienced during the period, for which we have entered into a sales contract with a homebuyer but for which we have not yet delivered the home. Homes in backlog are generally delivered within three to nine months, although we may experience cancellations of sales contracts prior to delivery. Our cancellation rate of homebuyers who contracted to buy a home but cancelled prior to delivery of the home (as a percentage of overall orders) was 13% and 15% during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Due to the timing of the COVID-19 pandemic relative to the current-year period end, the impact of cancellations on our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 is not representative of the cancellation volume we expect to experience as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related preventative and mitigative measures taken by applicable governmental authorities. As of the date of this report, our cancellation rates continued to increase as economic uncertainties continue to develop. The dollar value of backlog was $1.6 billion as of March 31, 2020, an increase of $380.6 million, or 31%, compared to $1.2 billion as of March 31, 2019.  This increase was due to an increase in backlog units of 613, or 33%, to 2,455 as of March 31, 2020, compared to 1,842 as of March 31, 2019, offset by a 2% decrease in the average sales price of homes in backlog to $659,000 as

of March 31, 2020, compared to $672,000 as of March 31, 2019. Our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not indicative of trends that we expect to persist as uncertainty caused by COVID-19 has impacted, and will continue to impact, our business and operations.
Maracay’s backlog dollar value increased 71% compared to the prior-year period due to an 81% increase in backlog units offset by a 5% decrease in average sales price. The increase in backlog units is due to the strong market conditions in Arizona for most of the current-year period and the success of recently opened communities. In addition, we opened the current-year period with a higher number of backlog units, which resulted in higher carryforward of opening backlog units in the current-year period compared to the prior-year period, which had been impacted by the housing slowdown in late 2018. Pardee Homes’ backlog dollar value increased 4% due to an increase in backlog units of 14% offset by a decrease in average sales price of 9%. The increase in backlog units is largely due to the strong demand environment we experienced for most of the quarter, in addition to a higher carryforward of backlog to start the current-year period. Quadrant Homes’ backlog dollar value increased 93% as a result of a 112% increase in backlog units offset by a 9% decrease in average sales price. The increase in backlog units was a result of starting the current-year period with an increase in backlog units, which further increased due to the 68% increase in net new home orders during the period, as market conditions in Seattle were very strong for most of the quarter. Trendmaker Homes’ backlog dollar value decreased 7% due primarily to an 8% decrease in backlog units. The decrease in backlog units resulted primarily from a 23% decrease in average selling communities for the quarter, as we experienced a strong demand environment for most of the quarter. TRI Pointe Homes’ backlog dollar value increased 48% mainly due to a 39% increase in backlog units, which correlates to the 40% increase in net new home orders for the quarter. Winchester Homes’ backlog dollar value increased 82% due primarily to an 84% increase in backlog units. The increase in backlog units is a result of the 51% increase in net new home orders for the three months ended March 31, 2020 in addition to a significantly higher unit backlog to start the current-year period compared to the prior-year period.

Home sales revenue increased $102.1 million, or 21%, to $594.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase was comprised of (i) $87.1 million related to an increase of 144 new homes delivered in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior-year period, and (ii) $15.0 million related to an increase of $16,000 in average sales price of homes delivered in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior-year period. Our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not indicative of trends that we expect to persist as uncertainty caused by COVID-19 has impacted, and will continue to impact, our business and operations.
Maracay home sales revenue increased 81% due to an 89% increase in new homes delivered during the current-year period. The increase in new homes delivered is due to a 119% increase in backlog units to start the current-year period compared to the prior-year period. Pardee Homes’ home sales revenue increased 32% due to a 25% increase in average sales price and a 6% increase in new homes delivered. The increase in average sales price was due to a product mix shift that included a greater proportion of deliveries from our higher-priced California assets in the current-year period, particularly from our San Diego market. Quadrant Homes’ home sales revenue remained steady due to the offsetting impacts of an 18% increase in new homes delivered and a 15% decrease in average sales price. The increase in new homes delivered was due to starting the current-year period with a higher number of backlog units compared to the prior-year period. Trendmaker Homes’ home sales revenue increased 37% due to a 36% increase in new homes delivered. The increase in new homes delivered was due to the timing of deliveries and starting the current-year period with a higher number of backlog units. TRI Pointe Homes’ home sales revenue decreased 8% due primarily to a 7% decrease in new homes delivered. The decrease in new homes delivered was driven by the timing of deliveries. Home sales revenue increased at Winchester Homes by 40% due to a 28% increase in new

homes delivered and a 10% increase in average sales price. The increase in new homes delivered was due to a higher number of backlog units at the start of the current-year period compared to the prior-year period.

Non-GAAP financial measure (as discussed below).
Our homebuilding gross margin percentage increased to 20.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to 14.4% for the prior-year period.  The increase in gross margin percentage was due to a decrease in incentives as compared to the prior-year period, during which we experienced weaker pricing trends, in addition to higher current quarter revenue from some of our long-term California communities, which produce gross margins above the Company average. Excluding interest and impairment and lot option abandonments in cost of home sales, adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 23.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 18.4% for the prior-year period.
Adjusted homebuilding gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that leverage and noncash charges have on homebuilding gross margin and permits investors to make better comparisons with our competitors, who adjust gross margins in a similar fashion. Because adjusted homebuilding gross margin is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.  See the table above reconciling this non-GAAP financial measure to homebuilding gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Total sales and marketing and general and administrative (“SG&A”) as a percentage of home sales revenue decreased to 13.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 15.7% in the prior-year period. Total SG&A expense increased $4.9 million to $82.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $77.6 million in the prior-year period.  
Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of home sales revenue decreased to 7.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to 7.9% for the prior-year period. The decrease was due primarily to higher leverage on the fixed components of sales and marketing expense as a result of the 21% increase in homebuilding revenue compared to the prior-year period. Sales and marketing expense increased to $42.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $39.0 million in the prior-year period due primarily to higher variable commission costs associated with higher home sales revenue.
General and administrative (“G&A”) expense as a percentage of home sales revenue decreased to 6.7% of home sales revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 7.8% for the prior-year period largely due to higher leverage on our G&A expense as a result of the 21% increase in homebuilding revenue compared to the prior-year period.  G&A

expense increased to $39.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $38.6 million for the prior-year period.
Interest
Interest, which we incurred principally to finance land acquisitions, land development and home construction, totaled $20.8 million and $23.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  All interest incurred in both periods was capitalized.  
Income Tax
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a tax provision of $9.8 million based on an effective tax rate of 23.5%.  For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded a tax provision of $24,000 based on an effective tax rate of 25.3%. The increase in provision for income taxes is due to a $41.6 million increase in income before income taxes to $41.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $95,000 for the prior-year period.
Financial Services Segment
Income before income taxes from our financial services operations increased to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $756,000 for the prior-year period.  This increase is due to higher home sales volume in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the prior-year period, resulting in a corresponding increase in financial services captured in the current year. We experienced higher financial services profit in all three areas of our financial services segment, represented by mortgage financing, title and escrow, and property and casualty insurance operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our principal uses of capital for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were operating expenses, land purchases, land development, home construction and repurchases of our common stock. We used funds generated by our operations to meet our short-term working capital requirements. We monitor financing requirements to evaluate potential financing sources, including bank credit facilities and note offerings. In early March 2020, we borrowed $100 million under our revolving credit facility for normal operating purposes. Due to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and for the purpose of safeguarding our balance sheet as the credit and banking market showed signs of distress in the wake of the outbreak, later in March 2020, we borrowed an additional $400 million under our revolving credit facility. While the current economic environment is unprecedented, and the ultimate effects of COVID-19 and the related restrictions imposed on businesses and individuals across the world remain unknown, we continue to monitor the credit markets as we remain focused on generating positive margins in our homebuilding operations. While acquiring desirable land positions is critical to our long-term growth initiatives, under the current conditions we are focused primarily on maintaining a strong balance sheet while maximizing flexibility as to future land spend. As of March 31, 2020, we had total liquidity of $677.5 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $624.1 million and $53.4 million of availability under our Credit Facility, as described below, after considering the borrowing base provisions and outstanding letters of credit.
Our board of directors will consider a number of factors when evaluating our level of indebtedness and when making decisions regarding the incurrence of new indebtedness, including the purchase price of assets to be acquired with debt financing, the estimated market value of our assets and the availability of particular assets, and our Company as a whole, to generate cash flow to cover the expected debt service.
Senior Notes
In June 2017, TRI Pointe Group issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.250% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) at 100.00% of their aggregate principal amount. Net proceeds of this issuance were $296.3 million, after debt issuance costs and discounts. The 2027 Notes mature on June 1, 2027 and interest is paid semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1.
In May 2016, TRI Pointe Group issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) at 99.44% of their aggregate principal amount. Net proceeds of this issuance were $293.9 million, after debt issuance costs and discounts. The 2021 Notes mature on July 1, 2021 and interest is paid semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1.
TRI Pointe Group and its wholly owned subsidiary TRI Pointe Homes, Inc. (“TRI Pointe Homes”) are co-issuers of the $450 million aggregate principal amount 5.875% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). The 2024 Notes were issued at 98.15% of their aggregate principal amount. The net proceeds from the offering of the 2024 Notes was $429.0 million, after debt issuance costs and discounts. The 2024 Notes mature on June 15, 2024, with interest payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15.
Our outstanding senior notes (the “Senior Notes”) contain covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things, create liens or other encumbrances, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, or merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets. These limitations are subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with the covenants required by our Senior Notes.
Loans Payable
On March 29, 2019, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which amended and restated our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 7, 2015. The Credit Facility (as defined below), which matures on March 29, 2023, consists of a $600 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) and a $250 million term loan facility (the “Term Facility” and together with the Revolving Facility, the “Credit Facility”). The Term Facility includes a 90-day delayed draw provision, which allowed us to draw the full $250 million from the Term Facility in June 2019 in connection with the maturity of the 4.375% Senior Notes that matured on June 15, 2019. We may increase the Credit Facility to not more than $1 billion in the aggregate, at our request, upon satisfaction of specified conditions. The Revolving Facility contains a sublimit of $75 million for letters of credit. We may borrow under the Revolving Facility in the ordinary course of business to repay senior notes and fund our operations, including our land acquisition, land development and homebuilding activities. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility will be governed by, among other things, a

- 40 -



borrowing base. Interest rates on borrowings under the Revolving Facility will be based on either a daily Eurocurrency base rate or a Eurocurrency rate, in either case, plus a spread ranging from 1.25% to 2.00%, depending on our leverage ratio. Interest rates on borrowings under the Term Facility will be based on either a daily Eurocurrency base rate or a Eurocurrency rate, in either case, plus a spread ranging from 1.10% to 1.85%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.
As of March 31, 2020, we had $500 million of outstanding debt under the Revolving Facility with an interest rate of 2.15% per annum and there was $53.4 million of availability after considering the borrowing base provisions and outstanding letters of credit.  As of March 31, 2020, we had $250 million outstanding debt under the Term Facility with an interest rate of 2.93%. As of March 31, 2020, there were $4.0 million of capitalized debt financing costs, included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheet, related to the Credit Facility that will amortize over the remaining term of the Credit Facility.  Accrued interest, including loan commitment fees, related to the Credit Facility was $1,400,000 and $1.2 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had outstanding letters of credit of $46.6 million and $32.6 million, respectively.  These letters of credit were issued to secure various financial obligations.  We believe it is not probable that any outstanding letters of credit will be drawn upon.
Under the Credit Facility, we are required to comply with certain financial covenants, including, but not limited to, those set forth in the table below (dollars in thousands):

In addition, the Credit Facility limits the aggregate number of single family dwellings (where construction has commenced) owned by the Company or any guarantor that are not presold or model units to no more than the greater of (i) 50% of the number of housing unit closings (as defined) during the preceding 12 months; or (ii) 100% of the number of housing unit closings during the preceding 6 months. However, a failure to comply with this “Spec Unit Inventory Test” will not be an event of default or default, but will be excluded from the borrowing base as of the last day of the quarter in which the non-compliance occurs. The Credit Facility further requires that at least 97.0% of consolidated tangible net worth must be attributable to the Company and its guarantor subsidiaries, subject to certain grace periods.
As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all of these financial covenants.
Stock Repurchase Program
On February 13, 2020, our board of directors discontinued and cancelled our 2019 Repurchase Program and approved our 2020 Repurchase Program, authorizing the repurchase of shares of common stock with an aggregate value of up to $200 million through March 31, 2021. Purchases of common stock pursuant to the 2020 Repurchase Program may be made in open market transactions effected through a broker-dealer at prevailing market prices, in block trades, or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. We are not obligated under the 2020 Repurchase Program to repurchase any specific number or dollar amount of shares of common stock, and we may modify, suspend or discontinue the 2020 Repurchase Program at any time. Our management will determine the timing and amount of repurchase in its discretion based on a variety of factors, such as the market price of our common stock, corporate requirements, general market economic conditions and legal requirements. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased and retired an aggregate of 6,558,323 shares of our common stock under the 2020 Repurchase Program for $102.0 million.

The ratio of debt-to-capital is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing total debt by the sum of total debt plus stockholders’ equity.
(2) 
The ratio of net debt-to-net capital is a non-GAAP financial measure and is computed as the quotient obtained by dividing net debt (which is total debt less cash and cash equivalents) by the sum of net debt plus stockholders’ equity. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the ratio of debt-to-capital. We believe the ratio of net debt-to-net capital is a relevant financial measure for investors to understand the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of our ability to obtain financing. See the table above reconciling this non-GAAP financial measure to the ratio of debt-to-capital.  Because the ratio of net debt-to-net capital is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Cash Flows—Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019:
Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $26.0 million to $89.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from net cash used of $114.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The change was comprised of offsetting activity, including (i) an increase in net income to $31.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $71,000 in the prior-year period, (ii) a decrease in cash used for accrued expenses and other liabilities to $5.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $73.4 million in the prior-year period, offset by (iii) an increase in cash used for real estate inventory to $127.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $29.7 million in the prior-year period. Additional offsetting activity included changes in other assets, receivables, accounts payable, deferred income taxes and returns on investments in unconsolidated entities. 
Net cash used in investing activities was $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $7.4 million for the prior-year period.  The increase in cash used in investing activities was due mainly to an increase in purchases of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $393.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $6.5 million for the prior-year period. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to our borrowing of $500 million under our Revolving Facility offset by $102.0 million of cash used for share repurchases for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to no similar cash transaction for the prior-year period.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

- 42 -



In the ordinary course of business, we enter into purchase contracts in order to procure lots for the construction of our homes.  We are subject to customary obligations associated with entering into contracts for the purchase of land and improved lots.  These purchase contracts typically require a cash deposit and the purchase of properties under these contracts is generally contingent upon satisfaction of certain requirements by the sellers, including obtaining applicable property and development entitlements.  We also utilize option contracts with land sellers and land banking arrangements as a method of acquiring land in staged takedowns, to help us manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings, and to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources.  These option contracts and land banking arrangements generally require a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire land and lots over a specified period of time at pre-determined prices.  We generally have the right, at our discretion, to terminate our obligations under both purchase contracts and option contracts by forfeiting our cash deposit with no further financial responsibility to the land seller.  In some cases, however, we may be contractually obligated to complete development work even if we terminate the option to procure land or lots. As of March 31, 2020, we had $90.9 million of cash deposits, the majority of which are non-refundable, pertaining to land and lot option contracts and purchase contracts with an aggregate remaining purchase price of $896.6 million (net of deposits). See Note 7, Variable Interest Entities, to the accompanying condensed notes to unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Our utilization of land and lot option contracts and land banking arrangements is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers or land banking firms willing to enter into such arrangements, the availability of capital to finance the development of optioned land and lots, general housing market conditions, and local market dynamics.  Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions.
Inflation
Our operations can be adversely impacted by inflation, primarily from higher land, financing, labor, material and construction costs.  In addition, inflation can lead to higher mortgage rates, which can significantly affect the affordability of mortgage financing to homebuyers.  While we attempt to pass on cost increases to customers through increased prices, when weak housing market conditions exist, we are often unable to offset cost increases with higher selling prices. 
Seasonality
Historically, the homebuilding industry experiences seasonal fluctuations in quarterly operating results and capital requirements.  We typically experience the highest new home order activity during the first and second quarters of our fiscal year, although this activity is also highly dependent on the number of active selling communities, timing of new community openings and other market factors.  Since it typically takes three to nine months to construct a new home, the number of homes delivered and associated home sales revenue typically increases in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year as new home orders sold earlier in the year convert to home deliveries.  Because of this seasonality, home starts, construction costs and related cash outflows have historically been highest in the second and third quarters of our fiscal year, and the majority of cash receipts from home deliveries occur during the second half of the year.  We expect this seasonal pattern to continue over the long-term, although it may be affected by volatility in the homebuilding industry.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our condensed notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 describe the significant accounting policies essential to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of our financial statements requires our management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions that we have used are appropriate and correct based on information available at the time they were made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect our reported assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the period presented. If there is a material difference between these estimates, judgments and assumptions and actual facts, our financial statements may be affected.
In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require our judgment in its application. There are areas in which our judgment in selecting among available alternatives would not produce a materially different result, but there are some areas in which our judgment in selecting among available alternatives would produce a materially different result. See the condensed notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements that contain additional information regarding our accounting policies and other disclosures.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our outstanding debt.  We did not utilize swaps, forward or option contracts on interest rates or commodities, or other types of derivative financial instruments as of or during the three months ended March 31, 2020. We did not enter into during the three months ended March 31, 2020, and currently do not hold, derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (the “Principal Executive Officer”) and Chief Financial Officer (the “Principal Financial Officer”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Under the supervision and with the participation of senior management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2020.
Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any change occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
The information required with respect to this item can be found under Note 13, Commitments and ContingenciesLegal Matters, to the accompanying condensed notes to unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.

Item 1A.
Risk Factors

The following supplements and updates the risk factors in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. If any of the risks discussed below or in our Annual Report on Form 10-K occur, our business, prospects, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations (individually and collectively referred to in the following risk factor as “Financial Performance”) could be materially and adversely affected, in which case the trading price of our common stock could decline significantly and you could lose all or a part of your investment. Some statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements in the following risk factor, constitute forward-looking statements. Please refer to Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q entitled “Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to Our Business

Our Financial Performance has been and may continue to be materially and adversely affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19, a novel strain of coronavirus first identified in Wuhan, China in December 2019, a pandemic. This outbreak, which has spread widely throughout the United States and nearly all other regions of the world, has prompted federal, state and local governmental authorities in the United States to declare states of emergency and institute preventative measures to contain and/or mitigate the public health effects. These preventative measures, which include quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and similar mandates that substantially restrict daily activities for many individuals, as well as orders calling for the closure and/or curtailment of operations for many businesses, have caused and continue to cause significant disruption to businesses in affected areas, as well as the financial markets both globally and in the United States, more broadly.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken by applicable governmental authorities, in mid-March 2020, we began encouraging all employees at our corporate and division offices whose duties could be performed from home to work remotely until further notice, transitioned all of our new home sales galleries and design studios to appointment-only with pre-screened individuals or virtual appointments, instituted mandatory social distancing and hygiene/sanitation guidelines in accordance with recommended protocols throughout the organization (including in our new home sales galleries and design studios, and with respect to trade partners and their employees on our jobsites) and postponed non-essential customer care service and warranty requests. While we believe these measures are advisable and in the best interests of our employees, trade partners, customers and communities, such measures, in combination with other factors, have reduced traffic in our new home sales galleries and design studios, slowed the pace of our home sales, delayed home deliveries and caused other material disruptions to our normal operations, including a substantial investment of time and resources by our management and organization, and may continue to do so during the pendency of such measures. Additionally, certain of our service providers and trade partners have instituted or may institute similar preventative measures, which could result in reductions in the availability, capacity and/or efficiency of the services upon which we depend for our operations, which could materially and adversely affect our Financial Performance. Further, in the event any of our employees, and/or employees of our service providers or trade partners, contract COVID-19 or are otherwise compelled to self-quarantine, we may experience shortages in labor and services that we require for our operations.

While residential homebuilding operations remain exempt from the application of “stay-at-home” orders in many of our markets, existing and future orders by governmental authorities in any of our markets may require us to cease our homebuilding operations for an uncertain or indefinite period of time, which could significantly affect new home orders and deliveries and negatively impact our home sales revenue in such markets. For example, in late March 2020, authorities in Seattle, Washington and the Bay Area in California revised existing restrictions against non-essential business activities to extend to most residential construction activities. As a result, as of the date of this report, our TRI Pointe Homes—Bay Area and Quadrant Homes divisions are prohibited from engaging in residential construction activities, which we anticipate will have a material and adverse impact on our ability to meet applicable development and construction timelines, as well as sales activity, in such markets in the event such prohibitions remain in effect for a significant duration.

- 54 -




We may also be materially and adversely affected by the disruptions to U.S. and local economies that result from the COVID-19 pandemic, including reduced consumer confidence, availability of financing for potential homebuyers, shortages of or increased costs associated with obtaining building materials, unemployment levels, wage growth and fluctuating interest rates. The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in substantial volatility in U.S. and international debt and equity markets and has caused significant decreases in the market prices of equity securities, including our common stock. The possibility of a prolonged recession or economic downturn could result in, among other things, a decrease in demand and prices for our homes; an increase in selling incentives required to sell homes; an oversupply of new and existing homes available for sale; increased home order cancellation rates; diminished value of our real estate investments, including potential impairments, write downs or dispositions of real estate assets, or lot option abandonments; and an inability to access our Credit Facility, service or refinance our existing indebtedness or access the debt and equity capital markets on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Ultimately, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and Financial Performance, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, will depend upon future developments, including the severity of COVID-19 and the duration of the outbreak; the duration of existing social distancing and shelter-in-place orders; further mitigation strategies taken by applicable government authorities; the availability of a vaccine, adequate testing and treatments and the prevalence of widespread immunity to COVID-19; the impacts on our supply chain; the health of our employees, service providers and trade partners; and the reactions of U.S. and global markets and their effects on consumer confidence and spending. Such adverse effects, however, may include decreases in home sales revenue, new home deliveries, average sales prices of homes, homebuilding gross margin percentages, active selling communities and backlog units, and increases in cancellation rates of home sales contracts, which may materially impact our Financial Performance during the second quarter of 2020 and beyond, as well as our ability to satisfy the covenants in our existing and any future debt agreements, including the Credit Facility, and service our outstanding indebtedness. The impact of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other risks discussed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, any of which could have a material effect on us.

Item 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
On February 21, 2019, our board of directors approved our 2019 Repurchase Program, authorizing the repurchase of shares of common stock with an aggregate value of up to $100 million through March 31, 2020. On December 16, 2019, we announced that our board of directors had authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $50 million through March 31, 2020, increasing the aggregate value of shares of common stock authorized to be repurchased under the 2019 Repurchase Program to $150 million from $100 million.
On February 13, 2020, our board of directors discontinued and cancelled the 2019 Repurchase Program and approved our 2020 Repurchase Program, authorizing the repurchase of shares of common stock with an aggregate value of up to $200 million through March 31, 2021. Purchases of common stock pursuant to the 2020 Repurchase Program may be made in open market transactions effected through a broker-dealer at prevailing market prices, in block trades, or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws, including pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. We are not obligated under the 2020 Repurchase Program to repurchase any specific number or dollar amount of shares of common stock, and we may modify, suspend or discontinue the 2020 Repurchase Program at any time. Our management will determine the timing and amount of repurchases in its discretion based on a variety of factors, such as the market price of our common stock, corporate requirements, general market economic conditions and legal requirements. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased and retired an aggregate of 6,558,323 shares of our common stock under the 2019 Repurchase Program and 2020 Repurchase Program for $102.0 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased and retired the following shares pursuant to our repurchase programs:

Exhibit 10.1

TRI POINTE GROUP, INC.
2013 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
PRE-TAX EARNINGS PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT
(EXECUTIVE FORM for 2020)

TRI Pointe Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to [NAME] (the “Holder”) as of [DATE] (the “Grant Date”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of the TRI Pointe Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), an award of performance-based restricted stock units (the “Award” and the restricted stock units granted pursuant to this Agreement, the “Award Units”) with respect to a maximum of [###] shares (with [###] shares referred to as the “Target Award”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), upon and subject to the restrictions, terms, and conditions set forth in the Plan and this agreement (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein or set forth in Attachment A have the respective meanings given to them in the Plan.
1.Award Subject to Acceptance of Agreement. The Award shall be null and void unless the Holder accepts this Agreement by executing it in the space provided below and returning such original execution copy to the Company, or by approving this Agreement by electronic means in a manner that has been approved by the Company.
2.Rights as a Stockholder. Each Award Unit shall represent the Holder’s right to receive one share of the Company’s Common Stock if and to the extent that such Award Unit becomes vested pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The Holder shall not be entitled to any privileges of ownership with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award unless and until, and only to the extent, such shares become vested pursuant to Section 3 hereof and the Holder becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such shares. As of each date on which the Company pays a cash dividend to record owners of shares of Common Stock (a “Dividend Date”), then the number of Award Units and shares subject to the Award shall increase by (i) the product of the total number of shares subject to the Award immediately prior to such Dividend Date multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock by the Company on such Dividend Date, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such Dividend Date. Any such additional Award Units and shares shall be subject to the same restrictions, vesting conditions, and payment terms set forth herein as the Award Units and shares to which they relate.
3.Performance Period and Vesting.
3.1.    Performance-Based Vesting Conditions. The Award granted pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a Performance Award (as defined in the Plan). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, if and to the extent that all or a portion of the Award (as determined in accordance with the provisions of Attachment B) shall vest on the Vesting Date as a result of the Company satisfying the Performance Measures set forth in Attachment B to this Agreement over the Performance Period, the Holder shall become vested in the Award Units, or the applicable portion thereof, if any, on the Vesting Date, provided that the Holder does not incur a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date. As used herein, (i) the term “Performance Period” shall mean the three-year period beginning on [DATE] and ending on [DATE] and (ii) the term “Vesting Date” shall mean [DATE]. If the Performance Period is shortened pursuant to Section 3.2 as a result of a Change in Control, appropriate adjustments to the performance targets, performance periods, and the determination of actual performance shall be made by the Committee in order to carry out the intent of this Agreement.
3.2.    Change in Control and Acceleration. In the event a Change in Control occurs after the first day of the Performance Period but prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Performance Period shall terminate on the closing date of the Change in Control and the following provisions shall apply:

2


case may be; or (ii) the consummation of a reorganization, merger, or consolidation of the Company, in each case, with respect to which all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the respective beneficial owners of the Common Stock and voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, or consolidation do not, following such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of Common Stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, or consolidation; or (iii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) individuals who at the beginning of any two-year period constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual who becomes a director of the Company during such two-year period and whose election, or whose nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, to the Board was either (A) approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board or (B) recommended by a nominating committee comprised entirely of directors who are then Incumbent Board members, shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act), other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents, or an actual or threatened tender offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any bona fide primary or secondary public offering shall not constitute a Change in Control and (ii) if a Change in Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any payment or benefit that provides for the deferral of compensation and is subject to Section 409A, the Change in Control transaction or event with respect to such payment or benefit must also constitute a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5) to the extent required by Section 409A.

Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence, the Award and the Award Units may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered, or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process.

5.2.    Investment Representation. The Holder hereby represents and covenants that (a) any share of Common Stock acquired upon the vesting of the Award Units will be acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), unless such acquisition has been registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws; (b) any subsequent sale of any such shares shall be made either pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and such state securities laws; and (c) if requested by the Company, the Holder shall submit a written statement, in form satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such representation (x) is true and correct as of the date of vesting of any shares of Common Stock hereunder or (y) is true and correct as of the date of any sale of any such share, as applicable.

If the Holder is, or becomes, a person subject to any policy of the Company providing for recoupment of performance based compensation in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial results, then Holder agrees the Award and the Award Units (and any shares of Common Stock issued with respect thereto) will be subject to such recoupment policy. The Company may impose, and Holder agrees to be bound by, such restrictions, conditions, or limitations as the Company determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales or other transfers of any Award Units (and any shares of Common Stock issued with respect thereto) as to which transferability restrictions have lapsed as provided under this Agreement, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading or other Company policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Holder and others following a public offering of the Company’s securities, (c) stock ownership or holding requirements, and (d) the required use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

The Holder may satisfy his or her obligation to advance the Required Tax Payments by any of the following means: (1) a cash payment to the Company, (2) delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) to the Company of previously owned whole shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the Required Tax Payments, (3) authorizing the Company to withhold up to the maximum required number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered or an amount of cash which would otherwise be payable to the Holder having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the Required Tax Payments, or (4) any combination of (1), (2), and (3). To the extent applicable, the Holder may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.
6.2.    Adjustment. In the event of any equity restructuring (within the meaning of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation) that causes the per share value of shares of Common Stock to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, rights offering, or recapitalization through an extraordinary dividend, the terms of this Award, including the number and class of securities subject hereto, shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee. In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, including a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or partial or complete liquidation of the Company, such equitable adjustments described in the foregoing sentence may be made as determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee (or, if the Company is not the surviving corporation in any such transaction, the board of directors of the surviving corporation) to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights of participants.

The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect or obtain any such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval, or other action.
6.4.    Award Confers No Rights to Continued Employment or Service. In no event shall the granting of the Award or its acceptance by the Holder, or any provision of this Agreement or the Plan, give or be deemed to give the Holder any right to continued employment by or service to the Company, any Subsidiary, or any affiliate of the Company or affect in any manner the right of the Company, any Subsidiary, or any affiliate of the Company to terminate the employment or service of any person at any time.
6.5.    Interpretation. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted by the Holder or by the Company forthwith to the Committee for review. The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and binding on all parties.

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein or set forth in Attachment A have the respective meanings given to them in the Plan.
1.Award Subject to Acceptance of Agreement. The Award shall be null and void unless the Holder accepts this Agreement by executing it in the space provided below and returning such original execution copy to the Company, or by approving this Agreement by electronic means in a manner that has been approved by the Company.
2.Rights as a Stockholder. Each Award Unit shall represent the Holder’s right to receive one share of the Company’s Common Stock if and to the extent that such Award Unit becomes vested pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The Holder shall not be entitled to any privileges of ownership with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award unless and until, and only to the extent, such shares become vested pursuant to Section 3 hereof and the Holder becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such shares. As of each date on which the Company pays a cash dividend to record owners of shares of Common Stock (a “Dividend Date”), then the number of Award Units and shares subject to the Award shall increase by (i) the product of the total number of shares subject to the Award immediately prior to such Dividend Date multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock by the Company on such Dividend Date, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such Dividend Date. Any such additional Award Units and shares shall be subject to the same restrictions, vesting conditions, and payment terms set forth herein as the Award Units and shares to which they relate.
3.Performance Period and Vesting.
3.1.    Performance-Based Vesting Conditions. The Award granted pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a Performance Award (as defined in the Plan). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, if and to the extent that all or a portion of the Award (as determined in accordance with the provisions of Attachment B) shall vest on the Vesting Date as a result of the Company satisfying the Performance Measures set forth in Attachment B to this Agreement over the Performance Period, the Holder shall become vested in the Award Units, or the applicable portion thereof, if any, on the Vesting Date, provided that the Holder does not incur a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date. As used herein, (i) the term “Performance Period” shall mean the three-year period beginning on [DATE] and ending on [DATE] and (ii) the term “Vesting Date” shall mean [DATE]. If the Performance Period is shortened pursuant to Section 3.2 as a result of a Change in Control, appropriate adjustments to the performance targets, performance periods, and the determination of actual performance shall be made by the Committee in order to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

2


case may be; or (ii) the consummation of a reorganization, merger, or consolidation of the Company, in each case, with respect to which all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the respective beneficial owners of the Common Stock and voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, or consolidation do not, following such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of Common Stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, or consolidation; or (iii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iv) individuals who at the beginning of any two-year period constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual who becomes a director of the Company during such two-year period and whose election, or whose nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, to the Board was either (A) approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board or (B) recommended by a nominating committee comprised entirely of directors who are then Incumbent Board members, shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act), other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents, or an actual or threatened tender offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any bona fide primary or secondary public offering shall not constitute a Change in Control and (ii) if a Change in Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any payment or benefit that provides for the deferral of compensation and is subject to Section 409A, the Change in Control transaction or event with respect to such payment or benefit must also constitute a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5) to the extent required by Section 409A.
3.3.    Separation from Service; Failure to Satisfy Performance Measures.
3.3.1.    Except as otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement, if the Holder incurs a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date for any reason, then the entire Award shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder for no consideration and cancelled, effective as of the date of the Holder’s Separation from Service.
3.3.2.    If the Holder does not incur a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date, any Award Units in which the Holder does not become vested pursuant to the Performance Measures set forth in Attachment B shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder for no consideration and cancelled, effective as of the last day of the Performance Period.
3.3.3.    Delivery of Certificates.

The Company shall pay all original issue or transfer taxes and all fees and expenses incident to such delivery, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.

4.Transfer Restrictions and Investment Representation.
5.1.     Nontransferability of Award. The Award may not be transferred by the Holder other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, pursuant to the designation of one or more beneficiaries on the form prescribed by the Company, a trust or entity established by the Holder for estate planning purposes, or a charitable organization designated by the Holder or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, in each case, without consideration. Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence, the Award and the Award Units may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered, or

3


otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. Upon any attempt to so sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or otherwise dispose of the Award or the Award Units in violation of this Agreement or the Plan, the Award and the Award Units and all rights hereunder shall immediately become null and void.
5.2.    Investment Representation. The Holder hereby represents and covenants that (a) any share of Common Stock acquired upon the vesting of the Award Units will be acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), unless such acquisition has been registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws; (b) any subsequent sale of any such shares shall be made either pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and such state securities laws; and (c) if requested by the Company, the Holder shall submit a written statement, in form satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such representation (x) is true and correct as of the date of vesting of any shares of Common Stock hereunder or (y) is true and correct as of the date of any sale of any such share, as applicable. As a further condition precedent to the delivery to the Holder of any shares of Common Stock subject to the Award, the Holder shall comply with all regulations and requirements of any regulatory authority having control of or supervision over the issuance or delivery of the shares and, in connection therewith, shall execute any documents which the Board shall in its sole discretion deem necessary or advisable.
5.3.    Additional Restrictions. If the Holder is, or becomes, a person subject to any policy of the Company providing for recoupment of performance based compensation in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial results, then Holder agrees the Award and the Award Units (and any shares of Common Stock issued with respect thereto) will be subject to such recoupment policy. The Company may impose, and Holder agrees to be bound by, such restrictions, conditions, or limitations as the Company determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales or other transfers of any Award Units (and any shares of Common Stock issued with respect thereto) as to which transferability restrictions have lapsed as provided under this Agreement, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading or other Company policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Holder and others following a public offering of the Company’s securities, (c) stock ownership or holding requirements, and (d) the required use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

The Company shall have the right to require, prior to the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common Stock upon the vesting of the Award Units, payment by the Holder of such Award of any federal, state, local or other taxes which may be required to be withheld or paid in connection with such Award (the “Required Tax Payments”). The Holder may satisfy his or her obligation to advance the Required Tax Payments by any of the following means: (1) a cash payment to the Company, (2) delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) to the Company of previously owned whole shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the Required Tax Payments, (3) authorizing the Company to withhold up to the maximum required number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered or an amount of cash which would otherwise be payable to the Holder having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the Required Tax Payments, or (4) any combination of (1), (2), and (3). To the extent applicable, the Holder may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.
6.2.    Adjustment. In the event of any equity restructuring (within the meaning of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation) that causes the per share value of shares of Common Stock to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, rights offering, or recapitalization through an extraordinary dividend, the terms of this Award, including the number and class of securities subject hereto, shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee. In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, including a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or partial or complete liquidation of the Company, such equitable adjustments described in the foregoing sentence may be made as determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee (or, if the Company is not the surviving corporation in any such transaction, the board of directors of the surviving corporation) to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights of participants. The decision of the Committee

4


regarding any such adjustment shall be final, binding, and conclusive.

The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect or obtain any such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval, or other action.
6.4.    Award Confers No Rights to Continued Employment or Service. In no event shall the granting of the Award or its acceptance by the Holder, or any provision of this Agreement or the Plan, give or be deemed to give the Holder any right to continued employment by or service to the Company, any Subsidiary, or any affiliate of the Company or affect in any manner the right of the Company, any Subsidiary, or any affiliate of the Company to terminate the employment or service of any person at any time.
6.5.    Interpretation. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted by the Holder or by the Company forthwith to the Committee for review. The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and binding on all parties.

6.7.    Notices. All notices, requests or other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be made, if to the Company, to TRI Pointe Group, Inc., Attn: Chief Financial Officer, 19540 Jamboree Road, Suite 300, Irvine, California 92612, and if to the Holder, to the last known mailing address of the Holder contained in the records of the Company.

If, following the date hereof, the Committee determines that the Award may be subject to Section 409A, including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the date hereof, the Committee may, in its discretion, adopt such amendments to this Agreement or adopt such other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies, and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, as the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to (i) exempt the Award from Section 409A and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (ii) comply with the requirements of Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or in this Agreement, the Holder agrees that the Holder (or the Holder’s estate or permitted beneficiary(ies)) will be solely responsible for the satisfaction of all taxes, interest, and penalties that may be imposed on the Holder or for the Holder’s account in connection with this Award (including, without limitation, any taxes, interest, and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor its Affiliates will have any obligation to reimburse, indemnify, or otherwise hold the Holder (or the Holder’s estate or permitted beneficiary(ies)) harmless from any or all of such taxes, interest, or penalties.

TRI Pointe Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to [NAME] (the “Holder”) as of [DATE] (the “Grant Date”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of the TRI Pointe Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), an award of performance-based restricted stock units (the “Award” and the restricted stock units granted pursuant to this Agreement, the “Award Units”) with respect to a maximum of [###] shares (with [###] shares referred to as the “Target Award”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), upon and subject to the restrictions, terms, and conditions set forth in the Plan and this agreement (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein or set forth in Attachment A have the respective meanings given to them in the Plan.
1.Award Subject to Acceptance of Agreement. The Award shall be null and void unless the Holder accepts this Agreement by executing it in the space provided below and returning such original execution copy to the Company, or by approving this Agreement by electronic means in a manner that has been approved by the Company.
2.Rights as a Stockholder. Each Award Unit shall represent the Holder’s right to receive one share of the Company’s Common Stock if and to the extent that such Award Unit becomes vested pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The Holder shall not be entitled to any privileges of ownership with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award unless and until, and only to the extent, such shares become vested pursuant to Section 3 hereof and the Holder becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such shares. As of each date on which the Company pays a cash dividend to record owners of shares of Common Stock (a “Dividend Date”), then the number of Award Units and shares subject to the Award shall increase by (i) the product of the total number of shares subject to the Award immediately prior to such Dividend Date multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock by the Company on such Dividend Date, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such Dividend Date. Any such additional Award Units and shares shall be subject to the same restrictions, vesting conditions, and payment terms set forth herein as the Award Units and shares to which they relate.
3.Performance Period and Vesting.
3.1.    Performance-Based Vesting Conditions. The Award granted pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a Performance Award (as defined in the Plan). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, if and to the extent that all or a portion of the Award (as determined in accordance with the provisions of Attachment B) shall vest on the Vesting Date as a result of the Organizational Unit satisfying the Performance Measures set forth in Attachment B to this Agreement over the Performance Period, the Holder shall become vested in the Award Units, or the applicable portion thereof, if any, on the Vesting Date, provided that the Holder does not incur a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date. As used herein, (i) the term “Performance Period” shall mean the three-year period beginning on [DATE] and ending on [DATE] and (ii) the term “Vesting Date” shall mean [DATE].
3.2.    Reserved
3.3.    Separation from Service; Change in Position; Failure to Satisfy Performance Measures.
3.3.1.    Except as otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement, if the Holder incurs a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date for any reason, then the entire Award shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder for no consideration and cancelled, effective as of the date of the Holder’s Separation from Service.




3.3.2.    Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Holder ceases to serve in the position the Holder has with the Organizational Unit on the Grant Date due to the Holder assuming or being appointed to another position with the Organizational Unit, the Company, any Subsidiary or any affiliate of the Company at any time before the Vesting Date, the Holder shall cease to earn any additional portion of the Award from and after the date of such cessation and, subject to the Holder not incurring a Separation from Service prior to the Vesting Date, shall, on the Vesting Date, only be eligible to earn a pro-rated portion of the Award Units that would have otherwise vested based upon actual performance through the last day of the Performance Period. Such pro-rated portion of the Award Units will be determined by multiplying the number of Award Units that would have otherwise vested by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Performance Period that elapsed prior to the date the Holder ceases to serve in the position the Holder has with the Organizational Unit on the Grant Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. In calculating the pro-rated portion of the Award Units earned pursuant to the foregoing sentence, if the number of shares earned includes a fractional number, the number of shares earned shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
3.3.3.    If the Holder does not incur a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date, then any Award Units in which the Holder does not become vested pursuant to the Performance Measures set forth in Attachment B shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder for no consideration and cancelled, effective as of the last day of the Performance Period.
4.Delivery of Certificates. Subject to Section 6, as soon as practicable after the vesting of Award Units, in whole or in part, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the year in which Award Units become vested, the Company shall (i) deliver or cause to be delivered one or more certificates issued in the Holder’s name (or such other name as is acceptable to the Company and designated in writing by the Holder), or (ii) issue in book entry form registered in the name of the Holder (or such other name as is acceptable to the Company and designated in writing by the Holder) a written or electronic notice or statement representing the number of vested shares represented by such vested Award Units. The Company shall pay all original issue or transfer taxes and all fees and expenses incident to such delivery, except as otherwise provided in Section 6. Prior to the issuance to the Holder of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award, the Holder shall have no direct or secured claim in any specific assets of the Company or in such shares of Common Stock, and will have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.
5.Transfer Restrictions and Investment Representation.
5.1.     Nontransferability of Award. The Award may not be transferred by the Holder other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, pursuant to the designation of one or more beneficiaries on the form prescribed by the Company, a trust or entity established by the Holder for estate planning purposes, or a charitable organization designated by the Holder or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, in each case, without consideration. Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence, the Award and the Award Units may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered, or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process.

5.2.    Investment Representation. The Holder hereby represents and covenants that (a) any share of Common Stock acquired upon the vesting of the Award Units will be acquired for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), unless such acquisition has been registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws; (b) any subsequent sale of any such shares shall be made either pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and such state securities laws; and (c) if requested by the Company, the Holder shall submit a written statement, in form satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such representation (x) is true and correct as of the date of vesting of any shares of Common Stock hereunder or (y) is true and correct as of the date of any sale of any such share, as applicable.

The Company may impose, and Holder agrees to be bound by, such restrictions, conditions, or limitations as the Company determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales or other transfers of any Award Units (and any shares of Common Stock issued with respect thereto) as to which transferability restrictions have lapsed as provided under this Agreement, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading or other Company policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Holder and others following a public offering of the Company’s securities, (c) stock ownership or holding requirements, and (d) the required use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

The Holder may satisfy his or her obligation to advance the Required Tax Payments by any of the following means: (1) a cash payment to the Company, (2) delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) to the Company of previously owned whole shares of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the Required Tax Payments, (3) authorizing the Company to withhold up to the maximum required number of shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered or an amount of cash which would otherwise be payable to the Holder having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, equal to the Required Tax Payments, or (4) any combination of (1), (2), and (3).

In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, including a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or partial or complete liquidation of the Company, such equitable adjustments described in the foregoing sentence may be made as determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee (or, if the Company is not the surviving corporation in any such transaction, the board of directors of the surviving corporation) to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights of participants. The decision of the Committee regarding any such adjustment shall be final, binding, and conclusive.

The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect or obtain any such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval, or other action.
6.4.    Award Confers No Rights to Continued Employment or Service. In no event shall the granting of the Award or its acceptance by the Holder, or any provision of this Agreement or the Plan, give or be deemed to give the Holder any right to continued employment by or service to the Company, any Subsidiary, or any affiliate of the Company or affect in any manner the right of the Company, any Subsidiary, or any affiliate of the Company to terminate the employment or service of any person at any time.

PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
REVENUES PERFORMANCE MEASURE
(COMPANY/DIVISION PRESIDENTS FORM for 2020)

TRI Pointe Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to [NAME] (the “Holder”) as of [DATE] (the “Grant Date”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of the TRI Pointe Group, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), an award of performance-based restricted stock units (the “Award” and the restricted stock units granted pursuant to this Agreement, the “Award Units”) with respect to a maximum of [###] shares (with [###] shares referred to as the “Target Award”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), upon and subject to the restrictions, terms, and conditions set forth in the Plan and this agreement (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein or set forth in Attachment A have the respective meanings given to them in the Plan.
1.Award Subject to Acceptance of Agreement. The Award shall be null and void unless the Holder accepts this Agreement by executing it in the space provided below and returning such original execution copy to the Company, or by approving this Agreement by electronic means in a manner that has been approved by the Company.
2.Rights as a Stockholder. Each Award Unit shall represent the Holder’s right to receive one share of the Company’s Common Stock if and to the extent that such Award Unit becomes vested pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. The Holder shall not be entitled to any privileges of ownership with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award unless and until, and only to the extent, such shares become vested pursuant to Section 3 hereof and the Holder becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such shares. As of each date on which the Company pays a cash dividend to record owners of shares of Common Stock (a “Dividend Date”), then the number of Award Units and shares subject to the Award shall increase by (i) the product of the total number of shares subject to the Award immediately prior to such Dividend Date multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock by the Company on such Dividend Date, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such Dividend Date. Any such additional Award Units and shares shall be subject to the same restrictions, vesting conditions, and payment terms set forth herein as the Award Units and shares to which they relate.
3.Performance Period and Vesting.
3.1.    Performance-Based Vesting Conditions. The Award granted pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a Performance Award (as defined in the Plan). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, if and to the extent that all or a portion of the Award (as determined in accordance with the provisions of Attachment B) shall vest on the Vesting Date as a result of the Organizational Unit satisfying the Performance Measures set forth in Attachment B to this Agreement over the Performance Period, the Holder shall become vested in the Award Units, or the applicable portion thereof, if any, on the Vesting Date, provided that the Holder does not incur a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date. As used herein, (i) the term “Performance Period” shall mean the three-year period beginning on [DATE] and ending on [DATE] and (ii) the term “Vesting Date” shall mean [DATE].
3.2.    Reserved
3.3.    Separation from Service; Change in Position; Failure to Satisfy Performance Measures.
3.3.1.    Except as otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement, if the Holder incurs a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date for any reason, then the entire Award shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder for no consideration and cancelled, effective as of the date of the Holder’s Separation from Service.




3.3.2.    Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Holder ceases to serve in the position the Holder has with the Organizational Unit on the Grant Date due to the Holder assuming or being appointed to another position with the Organizational Unit, the Company, any Subsidiary or any affiliate of the Company at any time before the Vesting Date, the Holder shall cease to earn any additional portion of the Award from and after the date of such cessation and, subject to the Holder not incurring a Separation from Service prior to the Vesting Date, shall, on the Vesting Date, only be eligible to earn a pro-rated portion of the Award Units that would have otherwise vested based upon actual performance through the last day of the Performance Period. Such pro-rated portion of the Award Units will be determined by multiplying the number of Award Units that would have otherwise vested by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Performance Period that elapsed prior to the date the Holder ceases to serve in the position the Holder has with the Organizational Unit on the Grant Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. In calculating the pro-rated portion of the Award Units earned pursuant to the foregoing sentence, if the number of shares earned includes a fractional number, the number of shares earned shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
3.3.3.    If the Holder does not incur a Separation from Service before the Vesting Date, then any Award Units in which the Holder does not become vested pursuant to the Performance Measures set forth in Attachment B shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder for no consideration and cancelled, effective as of the last day of the Performance Period.
4.Delivery of Certificates. Subject to Section 6, as soon as practicable after the vesting of Award Units, in whole or in part, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the year in which Award Units become vested, the Company shall (i) deliver or cause to be delivered one or more certificates issued in the Holder’s name (or such other name as is acceptable to the Company and designated in writing by the Holder), or (ii) issue in book entry form registered in the name of the Holder (or such other name as is acceptable to the Company and designated in writing by the Holder) a written or electronic notice or statement representing the number of vested shares represented by such vested Award Units. The Company shall pay all original issue or transfer taxes and all fees and expenses incident to such delivery, except as otherwise provided in Section 6. Prior to the issuance to the Holder of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award, the Holder shall have no direct or secured claim in any specific assets of the Company or in such shares of Common Stock, and will have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.
5.Transfer Restrictions and Investment Representation.

Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence, the Award and the Award Units may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered, or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. Upon any attempt to so sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or otherwise dispose of the Award or the Award Units in violation of this Agreement or the Plan, the Award and the Award Units and all rights hereunder shall immediately become null and void.

As a further condition precedent to the delivery to the Holder of any shares of Common Stock subject to the Award, the Holder shall comply with all regulations and requirements of any regulatory authority having control of or
