Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, "We are pleased to announce our fourth quarter and full year financial results, highlighted by record revenue, income, and very strong returns. We increased our revenue by 10% to a record $4.1 billion, increased pre-tax income by 25% to $635 million, and improved our operating margin by 160 basis points to 15.4%. Our gross margins, exclusive of 2022 impairments, improved by 140 basis points over last year to 25.7%, our overhead expense ratio improved by 60 basis points to 9.8%, and our return on equity continued to be strong at 27%. These results drove record diluted earnings per share of $17.24, a 30% increase over 2021 and produced year-end book value of $75 per share."
Mr. Schottenstein continued, "Our financial condition is excellent. We ended the year with record shareholders' equity reaching $2.1 billion, cash of $312 million, zero borrowings under our $650 million credit facility, and a homebuilding debt to capital of 25%. The rapid rise in interest rates over the past 9 months has materially impacted demand. On the other hand, favorable homebuyer demographics and a prolonged undersupply of available homes give us confidence in the housing market's long-term outlook. Though current conditions remain challenging, we feel very good about our position given the strength of our balance sheet, our low debt levels, our diverse product offerings and our well-located communities."
