Coming off a positive fourth quarter earnings performance that netted the company earnings of $2.68 per share, the future would appear bright for M.D.C. Holdings.
The company had all the key metrics moving in the right direction from the same time last year. New orders were up 82%, backlog was up 55%, gross margins grew 590 basis points to 18.2%--even the company's billion-plus cash position grew, thanks to a greater-than-expected $142.6 million tax benefit. About the worst that could be said about the company was that its SG&A, as a percentage of revenues, was high relative to peers at about 19.7%, although it decreased in dollar value.
