STANDARD PACIFIC CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2011

 

1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Standard Pacific Corp., without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Form 10-Q. Certain information normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) has been omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2011 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Pursuant to ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, we have evaluated subsequent events through the date that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Certain items in the prior period condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and “the Company” refer to Standard Pacific Corp. and its subsidiaries. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

 

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements (“ASU 2010-06”), which provides amendments to ASC Subtopic No. 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall. ASU 2010-06 requires additional disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The revised guidance was effective for us in the first quarter of 2010, except for Level 3 activity disclosures (please see Note 19 for further discussion), which were effective beginning January 1, 2011. Our adoption of these disclosure provisions of ASU 2010-06 did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”), providing a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement and expands the ASC 820 disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Our adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 requires the presentation of comprehensive income in either a continuous statement of comprehensive income or two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Our adoption of ASU 2011-05 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Segment Reporting

We operate two principal businesses: homebuilding and financial services.

Our homebuilding operations construct and sell single-family attached and detached homes. In accordance with the aggregation criteria defined in ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), our homebuilding operating segments have been grouped into three reportable segments: California; Southwest, consisting of our operating divisions in Arizona, Texas, Colorado and Nevada; and Southeast, consisting of our operating divisions in Florida and the Carolinas.

Our mortgage financing operations provide mortgage financing to our homebuyers in substantially all of the markets in which we operate, and sells substantially all of the loans it originates in the secondary mortgage market. Our title service operation provides title examinations for our homebuyers in Texas. Our mortgage financing and title services operations are included in our financial services reportable segment, which is separately reported in our consolidated financial statements under “Financial Services.”

Corporate is a non-operating segment that develops and implements strategic initiatives and supports our operating divisions by centralizing key administrative functions such as finance and treasury, information technology, insurance and risk management, litigation, and human resources. Corporate also provides the necessary administrative functions to support us as a publicly traded company. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred by Corporate are allocated to the homebuilding operating divisions based on their respective percentage of revenues.

Segment financial information relating to the Company’s homebuilding operations was as follows:

4. Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

We compute earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”), which requires the presentation of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share. Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Our Series B junior participating convertible preferred stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”), which is convertible into shares of our common stock at the holder’s option (subject to a limitation based upon voting interest and a holding restriction through August 23, 2011), is classified as a convertible participating security in accordance with ASC 260, which requires that both net income and loss per share for each class of stock (common stock and participating preferred stock) be calculated for basic earnings per share purposes based on the contractual rights and obligations of this participating security. Net income (loss) allocated to the holders of our Series B Preferred Stock is calculated based on the preferred shareholder’s proportionate share of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding on an if-converted basis.

For purposes of determining diluted earnings (loss) per common share, basic earnings (loss) per common share is further adjusted to include the effect of potential dilutive common shares outstanding, including stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method and convertible debt using the if-converted method. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, all dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation as they were anti-dilutive as a result of the net loss for these respective periods. Shares outstanding under the share lending facility are not treated as outstanding for earnings per share purposes in accordance with ASC 260, because the share borrower must return to us all borrowed shares (or identical shares) on or about October 1, 2012, or earlier in certain circumstances. The following table sets forth the components used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share.

6. Stock-Based Compensation

We account for share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires the fair value of stock-based compensation awards to be amortized as an expense over the vesting period. Stock-based compensation awards are valued at the fair value on the date of grant.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we granted 1,300,000 of stock options to an executive officer, and issued 704,435 shares of common stock to our officers and key employees and 70,825 shares of common stock to our independent directors (excluding directors appointed by MP CA Homes LLC (“MatlinPatterson”) who did not receive any stock awards).

Total compensation expense recognized related to stock-based compensation was as follows:

As of June 30, 2011, total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock-based compensation was $7.1 million, with a weighted average period over which the unrecognized compensation expense is expected to be recorded of approximately 1.6 years.

 

7. Restricted Cash

At June 30, 2011, restricted cash included $36.7 million of cash held in cash collateral accounts primarily related to certain letters of credit that have been issued and a portion related to our financial services subsidiary mortgage credit facilities ($33.8 million of homebuilding restricted cash and $2.9 million of financial services restricted cash).

 

8. Inventories

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”), we record impairment losses on inventories when events and circumstances indicate that they may be impaired, and the future undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. Inventories that are determined to be impaired are written down to their estimated fair value. We calculate the fair value of a project under a land residual value analysis and in certain cases in conjunction with a discounted cash flow analysis. During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the total number of projects included in inventories-owned and reviewed for impairment were 251 and 214, respectively. Based on the impairment review, we recorded $6.0 million of inventory impairments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 related to homes completed and under construction. We did not record any inventory impairments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Table of Contents

Under ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), a non-refundable deposit paid to an entity is deemed to be a variable interest that will absorb some or all of the entity’s expected losses if they occur. Our option deposits generally represent our maximum exposure to the land seller if we elect not to purchase the optioned property. In some instances, we may also expend funds for due diligence, development and construction activities with respect to optioned land prior to takedown, which we would have to write off should we not exercise the option. Therefore, whenever we enter into a land option or purchase contract with an entity and make a non-refundable deposit, a variable interest entity (“VIE”) may have been created. As of June 30, 2011, we were not required to consolidate any VIEs. In accordance with ASC 810, we perform ongoing reassessments of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE.

Other lot option contracts noted in the table above represent specific performance obligations to purchase lots that we have with various land sellers. In certain instances, the land option contract contains a binding obligation requiring us to complete the lot purchases. In other instances, the land option contract does not obligate us to complete the lot purchases but, due to the magnitude of our capitalized preacquisition costs, development and construction expenditures, we are considered economically compelled to complete the lot purchases.

 

9. Capitalization of Interest

We follow the practice of capitalizing interest to inventories owned during the period of development and to investments in unconsolidated homebuilding and land development joint ventures in accordance with ASC Topic 835, Interest (“ASC 835”). Homebuilding interest capitalized as a cost of inventories owned is included in cost of sales as related units or lots are sold. Interest capitalized to investments in unconsolidated homebuilding and land development joint ventures is included as a reduction of income from unconsolidated joint ventures when the related homes or lots are sold to third parties. Interest capitalized to investments in unconsolidated land development joint ventures is transferred to inventories owned if the underlying lots are purchased by us. To the extent our debt exceeds our qualified assets as defined in ASC 835, we expense a portion of the interest incurred by us. Qualified assets represent projects that are actively selling or under development as well as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method. For the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we expensed $7.4 million and $10.5 million, respectively, of interest costs related primarily to the portion of real estate inventories held for development that were deemed unqualified assets in accordance with ASC 835. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we expensed $18.0 million and $22.5 million, respectively, of interest costs in accordance with ASC 835.

The following is a summary of homebuilding interest capitalized to inventories owned and investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, amortized to cost of sales and loss from unconsolidated joint ventures and expensed as interest expense, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

(2) During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, in connection with lot purchases from our unconsolidated joint ventures and joint venture purchases and unwinds, $34 thousand and $65 thousand, respectively, of capitalized interest was transferred from investments in unconsolidated joint ventures to inventories owned.

Loss from unconsolidated joint ventures reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations represents our share of the income (loss) of these unconsolidated land development and homebuilding joint ventures, which is allocated based on the provisions of the underlying joint venture operating agreements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the total number of projects included in investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and reviewed for impairment were 6 and 7, respectively, with certain unconsolidated joint ventures having multiple real estate projects. Based on the impairment review, no projects were determined to be impaired for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

In some cases our net investment in these unconsolidated joint ventures is not equal to our proportionate share of equity reflected in the table above primarily because of differences between asset impairments that we recorded against our joint venture investments and the impairments recorded by the applicable joint venture. Our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures also included approximately $7.6 million and $4.5 million of homebuilding interest capitalized to investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, which capitalized interest is not included in the combined balance sheets above.

Table of Contents

Our investments in these unconsolidated joint ventures may represent a variable interest in a VIE depending on, among other things, the economic interests of the members of the entity and the contractual terms of the arrangement. We analyze all of our unconsolidated joint ventures under the provisions of ASC 810 to determine whether these entities are deemed to be VIEs, and if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. As of June 30, 2011, with the exception of one homebuilding joint venture, all of our homebuilding and land development joint ventures with unrelated parties were determined under the provisions of ASC 810 to be unconsolidated joint ventures because they were not deemed to be VIEs. As of June 30, 2011, we held an interest in one homebuilding joint venture in Northern California that was deemed to be a VIE. Our investment in this joint venture was approximately $6.8 million, which represents our maximum exposure to loss if we elect to forfeit our membership interest in this entity. As of June 30, 2011, this joint venture owns approximately $9.3 million of assets, primarily representing real estate inventories, and has no recourse debt outstanding. We have determined that based on the voting rights with respect to major decisions, as defined in the underlying joint venture operating agreement, both members of this joint venture share equally in the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. As a result, we are not required to consolidate this joint venture as neither member is deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

13. Revolving Credit Facility and Letter of Credit Facilities

On February 28, 2011, we entered into a $210 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a bank group (the “Revolving Facility”). The Revolving Facility matures in February 2014 and has an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment may be increased up to $400 million, subject to the availability of additional bank commitments and certain other conditions. The Revolving Facility contains financial covenants, including, but not limited to, (i) a minimum consolidated tangible net worth covenant; (ii) a covenant to maintain either (a) a minimum liquidity level or (b) a minimum interest coverage ratio;

(iii) a maximum net homebuilding leverage ratio and (iv) a maximum land not under development to tangible net worth ratio. This facility also contains a borrowing base provision, which limits the amount we may borrow or keep outstanding under the facility, and also contains a limitation on our investments in joint ventures. Interest rates charged under the Revolving Facility include LIBOR and prime rate pricing options. As of the date hereof, we satisfied the conditions that would allow us to borrow up to $196 million under the facility and had no amounts outstanding.

As of June 30, 2011 we were party to three letter of credit facilities that require cash collateralization. As of June 30, 2011, these facilities, which have maturity dates ranging from September 2011 to November 2011, had commitments that aggregated $51 million, had a total of $32.2 million outstanding, and were secured by cash collateral deposits of $33.7 million.

 

14. Secured Project Debt and Other Notes Payable

Our secured project debt and other notes payable consist of seller non-recourse financing and community development district and similar assessment district bond financings used to finance land development and infrastructure costs for which we are responsible. At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $4.2 million outstanding in secured project debt and other notes payable.

The senior notes payable described above are all senior obligations and rank equally with our other existing senior indebtedness. These senior notes and our 9 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 contain various restrictive covenants, including, with respect to the 10 3/4% Senior Notes due 2016, a limitation on additional indebtedness and a limitation on restricted payments. Under the limitation on additional indebtedness, we are permitted to incur specified categories of indebtedness but are prohibited, aside from those exceptions, from incurring further indebtedness if we do not satisfy either a leverage condition or an interest coverage condition. Under the limitation on restricted payments, we are also prohibited from making restricted payments (which include dividends, and investments in and advances to our joint ventures and other unrestricted subsidiaries), if we do not satisfy either condition. Our ability to make restricted payments is also subject to a basket limitation. As of June 30, 2011, we were able to satisfy the conditions necessary to incur additional indebtedness and to make restricted payments. In addition, if we were unable to satisfy either the leverage condition or interest coverage condition, restricted payments could be made from our unrestricted subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2011, we had approximately $457.6 million of cash available in our unrestricted subsidiaries. Many of our wholly owned direct and indirect

Table of Contents

subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”) guaranty our outstanding senior notes and our senior subordinated notes. The guarantees are full and unconditional, and joint and several. Please see Note 23 for supplemental financial statement information about our guarantor subsidiaries group and non-guarantor subsidiaries group.

Certain provisions of ASC Topic 470, Debt (“ASC 470”), require bifurcation of a component of convertible debt instruments, classification of that component in stockholders’ equity, and then accretion of the resulting discount on the debt to result in interest expense equal to the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. Our Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 (the “Convertible Notes”) are being accreted to their redemption value, approximately $39.6 million, over the remaining term of these notes. The unamortized discount of the Convertible Notes, which was included in Additional paid-in capital, was $5.2 million and $7.0 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Interest capitalized to inventories owned is included in cost of sales as related homebuilding revenues are recognized (please see Note 9 “Capitalization of Interest”).

 

16. Stockholders’ Equity

At June 30, 2011, we had 450,829 shares of Series B junior participating convertible preferred stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) outstanding, which are convertible into 147.8 million shares of our common stock. The number of shares of common stock into which our Series B Preferred Stock is convertible is determined by dividing $1,000 by the applicable conversion price ($3.05, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments) plus cash in lieu of fractional shares. The Series B Preferred Stock will be convertible at the holder’s option (subject to a holding restriction through August 23, 2011) into shares of our common stock provided that no holder, with its affiliates, may beneficially own total voting power of our voting stock in excess of 49%. The Series B Preferred Stock also mandatorily converts into our common stock upon its sale, transfer or other disposition by MatlinPatterson or its affiliates to an unaffiliated third party. The Series B Preferred Stock votes together with our common stock on all matters upon which holders of our common stock are entitled to vote. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to such number of votes as the number of shares of our common stock into which such share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, provided that the aggregate votes attributable to such shares with respect to any holder of Series B Preferred Stock (including its affiliates), taking into consideration any other voting securities of the Company held by such stockholder, cannot exceed more than 49% of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Company. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive only those dividends declared and paid on the common stock. As of June 30, 2011, the outstanding shares of common stock (89.4 million shares) and Series B Preferred Stock owned by MatlinPatterson represented approximately 69% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on an if-converted basis.

 

17. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We account for derivatives and certain hedging activities in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 establishes the accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, be recorded as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and to measure these instruments at fair market value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair market value of derivatives are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations or recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, and recognized in the consolidated statement of operations when the hedged item affects earnings, depending on the purpose of the derivative and whether the derivative qualifies for hedge accounting treatment.

Our policy is to designate at a derivative’s inception the specific assets, liabilities or future commitments being hedged and monitor the derivative to determine if the derivative remains an effective hedge. The effectiveness of a derivative as a hedge is based on a high correlation between changes in the derivative’s value and changes in the value of the underlying hedged item. We recognize gains or losses for amounts received or paid when the underlying transaction settles. We do not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

In May 2006, we entered into two interest rate swap agreements related to our Term Loan B with an aggregate notional amount of $250 million that effectively fixed our 3-month LIBOR rates for our term loan through its original maturity date of May 2013. The swap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges and, accordingly, were reflected at their fair market value in accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. To the extent the swaps were deemed effective and qualified for hedge accounting treatment, the related gain or loss was deferred, net of tax, in stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

In December 2010, we repaid in full the remaining $225 million balance of our Term Loan B and made a $24.5 million payment to terminate the related interest rate swap agreements in connection with our debt refinance transaction that closed in the 2010 fourth quarter. As a result, we have no payment obligation remaining related to interest rate swap agreements. The $24.5 million cost associated with the early unwind of the interest rate swap agreements (of which a remaining unamortized balance of $15.0 million was included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and $9.3 million was included in deferred income taxes in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010) will be amortized over a period of approximately 2.3 years (or May 2013), the original maturity date of the terminated instruments.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded comprehensive income of $3.2 million, net of tax, related to amortization to interest incurred of the remaining cost associated with the early unwind of the interest rate swap agreements (of which a remaining unamortized balance of $11.9 million is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and $7.3 million is included in deferred income taxes in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2011). For the six months ended June 30, 2010, we recorded comprehensive loss of $1.5 million, net of tax, related to ineffectiveness of the swap agreements.

 

18. Mortgage Credit Facilities

At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $34.9 million outstanding under our mortgage financing subsidiary’s mortgage credit facilities. As of such date, these mortgage credit facilities consisted of a $45 million repurchase facility and a $60 million early purchase facility with one lender, and a $50 million repurchase facility with another lender. The lenders generally do not have discretion to refuse to fund requests under these facilities if our mortgage loans comply with the requirements of the facility, although the lender of the $45 million repurchase facility has substantial discretion to modify these requirements from time to time, even if any such modification adversely affects our mortgage financing subsidiary’s ability to utilize the facility. These facilities require Standard Pacific Mortgage to maintain cash collateral accounts, which totaled approximately $2.9 million as of June 30, 2011, and also contain financial covenants which require Standard Pacific Mortgage to, among other things, maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, not to exceed a debt to tangible net worth ratio, maintain a minimum liquidity of $5 million (inclusive of the cash collateral requirement), and satisfy pretax income (loss) requirements. As of June 30, 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage was in compliance with the financial and other covenants contained in these facilities.

In July 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage renewed the $50 million repurchase facility, extending its maturity date to July 3, 2012. Standard Pacific Mortgage also extended the maturity date of the $45 million repurchase facility and $60 million early purchase facility from July 19, 2011 to August 18, 2011. Standard Pacific Mortgage is currently negotiating a further extension for the $60 million early purchase facility in connection with reducing the overall early purchase facility commitment amount.

19. Disclosures about Fair Value

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate:

Cash and Equivalents—The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value as these assets primarily consist of short-term investments and demand deposits.

Mortgage Loans Held for Investment—Fair value of these loans is based on the estimated market value of the underlying collateral based on market data and other factors for similar type properties as further adjusted to reflect their estimated net realizable value of carrying the loans through disposition.

Secured Project Debt and Other Notes Payable—These notes are for seller non-recourse financing and community development district and similar assessment district bond financings used to finance land development and infrastructure costs for which we are responsible. The notes were discounted at an interest rate that is commensurate with market rates of similar secured real estate financing.

Senior and Senior Subordinated Notes Payable—The senior and senior subordinated notes are traded over the counter and their fair values were based upon the values of their last trade at the end of the period.

Mortgage Credit Facilities—The carrying amounts of these credit obligations approximate market value because of the frequency of repricing of borrowings.

Mortgage Loan Commitments—These instruments consist of our commitments to sell loans to investors resulting from extending interest rate locks to loan applicants. Fair values of these instruments are based on market rates of similar interest rate locks.

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) establishes a framework for measuring fair value, expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements and defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Further, ASC 820 requires us to maximize the use of observable market inputs, minimize the use of unobservable market inputs and disclose in the form of an outlined hierarchy the details of such fair value measurements. ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

 

   

Level 1—quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

 

-16-


Table of Contents
   

Level 2—quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

 

   

Level 3—valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The following assets have been measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 820 for the six months ended June 30, 2011:

Inventories Owned—Represents the aggregate fair values for projects that were impaired during the six months ended June 30, 2011, as of the date that the fair value measurements were made. The carrying value for these projects may have subsequently increased or decreased due to activities that have occurred since the measurement date. In accordance with ASC 360, during the six months ended June 30, 2011, inventories owned with a carrying amount of $13.8 million were determined to be impaired and were written down to their estimated fair value of $7.8 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $6.0 million. These impairment charges were included in cost of sales in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair values for projects that were impaired were determined using Level 3 inputs, which were included in an estimated land residual value analysis and a discounted cash flow analysis. The projected land residual and cash flow for each community are significantly impacted by estimates related to local economic and market trends, sales pace, net sales prices, development and construction timelines, construction and development costs, sales and marketing expenses, and other project specific costs. The operating margin (defined as gross margin less direct selling and marketing costs) used to calculate land residual values and related fair values for the projects impaired during the six months ended June 30, 2011, was 10% and discount rates were approximately 20% to 30%.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale—These consist of FHA, VA, USDA and agency first mortgages on single-family residences which are eligible for sale to FNMA/FHLMC, GNMA or other investors, as applicable. Fair values of these loans are based on quoted prices from third party investors when preselling loans.

 

20. Commitments and Contingencies

 

  a. Land Purchase and Option Agreements

We are subject to obligations associated with entering into contracts for the purchase of land and improved homesites. These purchase contracts typically require a cash deposit or delivery of a letter of credit, 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 third-party financial entities 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. Option contracts generally require a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at predetermined 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 or by repaying amounts drawn under our letter of credit with no further financial responsibility to the land seller, although in certain instances, the land seller has the right to compel us to purchase a specified number of lots at predetermined prices. Also, in a few instances

 

-17-


Table of Contents

where we have entered into option contracts with third party financial entities, we have generally entered into construction agreements that do not terminate if we elect not to exercise our option. In these instances, we are generally obligated to complete land development improvements on the optioned property at a predetermined cost (paid by the option provider) and are responsible for all cost overruns. At June 30, 2011, we had one option contract outstanding with a third party financial entity with approximately $0.8 million of remaining land development improvement costs, all of which is anticipated to be funded by the option provider. In some instances, we may also expend funds for due diligence, development and construction activities with respect to our land purchase and option contracts prior to purchase, which we would have to write off should we not purchase the land. At June 30, 2011, we had non-refundable cash deposits and letters of credit outstanding of approximately $23.7 million and capitalized preacquisition and other development and construction costs of approximately $3.5 million relating to land purchase and option contracts having a total remaining purchase price of approximately $230.1 million. Approximately $35.5 million of the remaining purchase price is included in inventories not owned in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Our utilization of option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into option takedown arrangements, the availability of capital to financial intermediaries, general housing market conditions, and geographic preferences. Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions. We continue to evaluate the terms of open land option and purchase contracts in light of slower housing market conditions and may write-off option deposits in the future, particularly in those instances where land sellers or third party financial entities are unwilling to renegotiate significant contract terms.

 

  b. Land Development and Homebuilding Joint Ventures

Our joint ventures have historically obtained secured acquisition, development and construction financing, which is designed to reduce the use of funds from corporate financing sources. As of June 30, 2011, we held membership interests in 19 homebuilding and land development joint ventures, of which eight were active and 11 were inactive or winding down. As of such date, our joint ventures had no project specific financing outstanding. In addition, as of June 30, 2011, our joint ventures had $13.4 million of surety bonds outstanding subject to indemnity arrangements by us and had an estimated $0.8 million remaining in cost to complete.

 

  c. Surety Bonds

We obtain surety bonds in the normal course of business to ensure completion of the infrastructure of our projects. At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $190.3 million in surety bonds outstanding (exclusive of surety bonds related to our joint ventures), with respect to which we had an estimated $73.4 million remaining in cost to complete.

 

  d. Mortgage Loans and Commitments

We commit to making mortgage loans to our homebuyers through our mortgage financing subsidiary, Standard Pacific Mortgage. Standard Pacific Mortgage sells substantially all of the loans it originates in the secondary mortgage market and finances these loans under its mortgage credit facilities for a short period of time (typically for 15 to 30 days), as investors complete their administrative review of applicable loan documents. Mortgage loans in process for which interest rates were committed to borrowers totaled approximately $35.6 million at June 30, 2011 and carried a weighted average interest rate of approximately 4.4%. Interest rate risks related to these obligations are mitigated through the preselling of loans to investors. As of June 30, 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage had approximately $37.4 million in closed mortgage loans held for sale and $36.7 million of mortgage loans that we were committed to sell to investors subject to our funding of the loans and completion of the investors’ administrative review of the applicable loan documents.

 

-18-


Table of Contents

Standard Pacific Mortgage sells substantially all of the loans it originates in the secondary mortgage market, with servicing rights released on a non-recourse basis. This sale is subject to Standard Pacific Mortgage’s obligation to repay its gain on sale if the loan is prepaid by the borrower within a certain time period following such sale, or to repurchase the loan if, among other things, the purchaser’s underwriting guidelines are not met, or there is fraud in connection with the loan. As of June 30, 2011, we had been required to repurchase or pay make-whole premiums on 0.32% of the $6.3 billion total dollar value of the loans ($2.2 billion of which represented non-full documentation loans) we originated from the beginning of 2004 through the second quarter of 2011, and incurred approximately $6.4 million of related losses ($5.2 million for non-full documentation loans) during this period. During the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, Standard Pacific Mortgage recorded loan loss reserves related to loans sold of $1.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, Standard Pacific Mortgage recorded loan loss reserves related to loans sold of $2.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage had repurchase reserves related to loans sold of approximately $3.3 million. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage made make-whole payments totaling approximately $1.0 million related to seven loans, compared to make-whole payments totaling approximately $0.5 million related to four loans in the prior year period.

Mortgage loans held for investment are continually evaluated for collectability and, if appropriate, specific reserves are established based on estimates of collateral value. As of June 30, 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage had $13.9 million of loans held for investment that had a loan loss reserve of approximately $4.2 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, Standard Pacific Mortgage recorded loan loss reserves related to loans held for investment of $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

 

  e. Insurance and Litigation Accruals

Insurance and litigation accruals are established with respect to estimated future claims cost. We maintain general liability insurance designed to protect us against a portion of our risk of loss from construction-related claims. We also generally require our subcontractors and design professionals to indemnify us for liabilities arising from their work, subject to various limitations. We record reserves to cover our estimated costs of self-insured retentions and deductible amounts under these policies and estimated costs for claims that may not be covered by applicable insurance or indemnities. Our total insurance and litigation accruals as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were $50.7 million and $56.2 million, respectively, which are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Estimation of these accruals include consideration of our claims history, including current claims, estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported, and potential for recovery of costs from insurance and other sources. We utilize the services of an independent third party actuary to assist us with evaluating the level of our insurance and litigation accruals. Because of the high degree of judgment required in determining these estimated accrual amounts, actual future claim costs could differ from our currently estimated amounts.

 

  f. Restructuring Costs

Our operations have been impacted by weak housing demand in substantially all of our markets. As a result, during 2008 we initiated a restructuring plan designed to reduce ongoing overhead costs and improve operating efficiencies through the consolidation of selected divisional offices, the disposal of related property and equipment, and a reduction in our workforce. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded $0.6 million of homebuilding restructuring charges included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations related to employee severance costs incurred in connection with further adjusting our workforce to align with lower sales volume. We did not incur any restructuring charges during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. We believe that our restructuring activities are substantially complete as of June 30, 2011. However, until market conditions stabilize, we may incur additional restructuring charges for employee severance, lease termination and other exit costs.

21. Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires an asset and liability approach for measuring deferred taxes based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities existing at each balance sheet date using enacted tax rates for years in which taxes are expected to be paid or recovered.

The components of our net deferred income tax asset are as follows:

    December  31,
2010

Deferred income taxes

   $ 7,314      $ 9,269   
                

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, our utilization experience with operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and tax planning alternatives.

As of June 30, 2011, we had a deferred tax asset of $523.3 million (excluding the $7.3 million deferred tax asset related to our terminated interest rate swap). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we generated a deferred tax asset of $4.2 million and $9.8 million, respectively, related to pretax losses, and determined under ASC 740 that we were required to establish a full valuation allowance against this asset. As of June 30, 2011, due primarily to our current and cumulative losses, the uncertainty as to the duration of the housing market’s downturn and its impact on our ability to predict future taxable income, we have determined that an aggregate valuation allowance of $523.3 million against our deferred tax asset is required. If we generate taxable income in the future, subject to the potential limitations discussed below, we expect to be able to reduce our effective tax rate through a reduction in this valuation allowance.

We underwent a change in ownership for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“Section 382”) on June 27, 2008. As a result, a portion of our deferred tax asset became subject to the various limitations on its use that are imposed by Section 382. At June 30, 2011, $271 million of this asset was subject to limitations, of which $128 million was subject to the unrealized built-in loss limitations and $143 million was subject to federal and state net operating loss carryforward limitations.

The limitations ultimately placed on the $128 million subject to the unrealized built-in loss limitations depends on, among other things, when, and at what price, we dispose of assets with built-in losses. Assets with built-in losses sold prior to June 27, 2013, are subject to a $15.6 million gross annual deduction limitation for federal and state purposes. Assets with built-in losses sold after June 27, 2013 are not subject to these limitations. In general, to the extent that realized tax losses from these built-in loss assets exceed $15.6 million in any tax year prior to June 27, 2013, the built-in losses in excess of this amount will be permanently lost, such permanent loss reflected by identical reductions of our deferred tax asset and deferred tax asset valuation allowance for the tax effected amount of the difference. During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded such reductions in the amounts of $2.9 million and $9.3 million, respectively, reflecting permanent losses of our deferred tax asset in such periods related to built-in losses realized during these periods that were in excess of the Section 382 annual limitation. We have recovered over 40% of the built-in losses contained in assets that we have sold since the beginning of 2010.

As of June 30, 2011, $143 million (or approximately $343 million and $392 million, respectively, of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards on a gross basis) of our deferred tax asset related to net operating loss carryforwards is subject to a $15.6 million gross annual deduction limitation for both federal and state purposes. The remaining $118 million (or approximately $257 million and $438 million, respectively, of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards on a gross basis) is not currently limited by Section 382.

As of June 30, 2011, our liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits was $13.7 million, all of which, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate. There were no significant changes in the accrued liability related to uncertain tax positions during the three months ended June 30, 2011, nor do we anticipate significant changes during the next 12-month period. As of June 30, 2011, we remained subject to examination by various tax jurisdictions for the tax years ended December 31, 2006 through 2010.

(1) In 2008, we issued 147.8 million equivalent shares of common stock (in the form of preferred stock) in connection with the Investment Agreement with MP CA Homes LLC, an affiliate of MatlinPatterson Global Advisers LLC. If the preferred stock was converted to common stock, the total weighted average diluted common shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 would have been 341.4 million and 271.8 million, respectively, and the total weighted average diluted common shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 would have been 341.2 million and 264.7 million, respectively.
(2) Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA means net income (loss) (plus cash distributions of income from unconsolidated joint ventures) before (a) income taxes, (b) homebuilding interest expense, (c) expensing of previously capitalized interest included in cost of sales, (d) impairment charges and deposit write-offs, (e) gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt, (f) homebuilding depreciation and amortization, (g) amortization of stock-based compensation, (h) income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures and (i) income (loss) from financial services subsidiary. Other companies may calculate Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA (or similarly titled measures) differently. We believe Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA information is useful to management and investors as one measure of our ability to service debt and obtain financing. However, it should be noted that Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA is not a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measure. Due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to cash flows from operations or any other liquidity performance measure prescribed by GAAP.

Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to Three and Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2010

Overview

While we continued to make significant progress with our growth strategy during the 2011 second quarter, increasing our average community count by 20% to 153 communities and acquiring 1,450 lots valued at $92 million during the quarter, our results of operations continue to be hampered by challenging housing market conditions. These conditions include weak housing demand in substantially all of our markets, resulting from a housing supply/demand imbalance, low consumer confidence, high unemployment and price uncertainty. However, with over $507 million of cash on hand and the additional amounts that remain available under our $210 million revolving credit facility, we believe we have ample liquidity to navigate the market downturn.

We reported a net loss of $10.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, during the 2011 second quarter, compared to net income of $10.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2010. The decrease in our financial performance was primarily driven by a decrease in homebuilding revenues resulting from a decline in deliveries. The 2011 second quarter included $6.0 million of inventory impairment charges and approximately $2.2 million of charges related to the change in our Chief Financial Officer position during the period, while the prior year period included a $5.2 million charge related to the early extinguishment of debt and no inventory impairment charges. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we reported a net loss of $25.3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to net income of $5.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the year earlier period. Our results for the six months ended June 30, 2011 included $6.0 million of inventory impairment charges and approximately $2.7 million of severance and other charges, primarily related to the change in our Chief Financial Officer position during the period, while the six months ended June 30, 2010, included a $5.2 million charge related to the early extinguishment of debt and no inventory impairment or restructuring charges.

We ended the period with $507.2 million of homebuilding cash, including $33.8 million of restricted cash. Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $232.1 million, compared to $38.9 million of net cash generated by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in net cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the prior year period was primarily driven by a $144.5 million decrease in homebuilding

We reported a homebuilding pretax loss for the 2011 second quarter of $10.5 million compared to pretax income of $9.8 million in the year earlier period. The decrease in our financial performance was primarily the result of a $31.4 million decrease in gross margin from home sales, driven by a decrease in home sale revenues and a $6.0 million increase in inventory impairment charges, partially offset by a $5.0 million decrease in our selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses and a $5.2 million decrease in loss on early extinguishment of debt.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we reported a homebuilding pretax loss of $23.8 million compared to pretax income of $4.9 million in the year earlier period. The decrease in our financial performance was primarily the result of a $41.7 million decrease in gross margin from home sales, driven by a decrease in home sale revenues and a $6.0 million increase in inventory impairment charges, partially offset by a $5.5 million decrease in our SG&A expenses and a $5.2 million decrease in loss on early extinguishment of debt.

Home sale revenues decreased 36%, from $316.7 million for the 2010 second quarter to $204.2 million for the 2011 second quarter, primarily as a result of a 32% decrease in new home deliveries and, to a lesser extent, by a 6% decrease in our consolidated average home price to $335 thousand. Home sale revenues decreased 29%, from $491.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $347.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily as a result of a 27% decline in new home deliveries.

the number of homes in backlog at the beginning of the quarter as compared to the year earlier period. The reduction in the number of homes in backlog reflected the slowdown in order activity experienced during the 2011 first quarter, compared to the 2010 first quarter, driven by a housing supply/demand imbalance, low consumer confidence, high unemployment and the elimination of the Federal tax credit that expired on April, 30 2010.

(1) Numbers presented regarding unconsolidated joint ventures reflect total average selling prices of such joint ventures.

The decrease in our consolidated average home price (excluding joint ventures) for the 2011 second quarter was due primarily to the delivery of three luxury homes with an average selling price of approximately $6 million from one of the Company’s Southern California coastal communities during the 2010 second quarter as compared to no deliveries from this community during the 2011 second quarter. Our average home prices in Arizona and Colorado for the 2011 second quarter were up 6% each primarily due to product mix shifts.

Gross Margin

Our 2011 second quarter gross margin percentage from home sales was 17.0% compared to 20.9% in the prior year period. The 2011 second quarter gross margin from home sales included $6.0 million of pretax inventory impairment charges related to two homebuilding projects in Northern California totaling $3.9 million and one homebuilding project in Arizona for $2.1 million, whereas the 2010 second quarter gross margin from home sales reflected no inventory impairment charges.

The fair values for the projects that were impaired were calculated using an estimated land residual value analysis and a discounted cash flow analysis. The projected land residual and cash flow for each community are significantly impacted by estimates related to local economic and market trends, sales pace, net sales prices, development and construction timelines, construction and development costs, sales and marketing expenses, and other project specific costs. The operating margin (defined as gross margin less direct selling and marketing costs) used to calculate land residual values and related fair values for the projects impaired during the three months ended June 30, 2011, was 10% and discount rates were approximately 20% to 30%. Our 2011 second quarter gross margin percentage from home sales was 17.0% versus an adjusted gross margin from home sales for the 2011 second quarter of 20.0%. For the first six months of 2011, our gross margin percentage from home sales was 18.4% versus an adjusted gross margin from home sales for the prior year period of 20.2%. Please see the table set forth below reconciling this non-GAAP measure to our gross margin from home sales.

We believe that the measure described above, which excludes housing inventory impairment charges, is useful to our management and investors as it provides a perspective on the underlying operating performance of the business by isolating our results from home sales and excluding impairment charges and provides comparability with information presented by the Company’s peer group. However, it should be noted that such measure is not a GAAP financial measure and other companies in the homebuilding industry may calculate this measure differently. Due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, such measure should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance measures prescribed by GAAP.

SG&A Expenses

Our 2011 second quarter SG&A expenses (including Corporate G&A) were $38.4 million compared to $43.4 million for the prior year period. SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 included approximately $2.2 million of severance and other charges incurred in connection with the change in our Chief Financial Officer position during the quarter. Excluding these charges, our 2011 second quarter adjusted SG&A rate from home sales was 17.8% (please see the table set forth below reconciling this non-GAAP measure to our SG&A rate from home sales) versus a SG&A rate from home sales of 13.7% in the 2010 second quarter. The 410 basis point increase in our adjusted SG&A rate was primarily the result of a 36% decrease in home sale revenues and higher sales and marketing costs associated with new community openings. Our SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 also included $0.6 million of severance charges recorded during the 2011 first quarter in connection with restructuring efforts to further adjust our workforce to align with lower sales volume.

The table set forth below reconciles our SG&A expenses and SG&A rate from home sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 to our SG&A expenses and SG&A rate from home sales, excluding severance and other charges related to the change in our Chief Financial Officer:

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

We recognized a $0.4 million loss from unconsolidated joint ventures during the 2011 second quarter compared to a $0.2 million loss in the year earlier period. The loss in the 2011 second quarter primarily represented $0.8 million of losses related to two Southern California land development joint ventures,

partially offset by $0.5 million of income related to one Northern California homebuilding joint venture. The loss in the 2010 second quarter primarily represented $0.7 million of losses related to one Southern California land development joint venture, partially offset by $0.4 million of income related to one Northern California homebuilding joint venture.

Interest Expense

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we expensed $7.4 million and $18.0 million, respectively, of interest costs related to the portion of our debt in excess of our qualified assets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we expensed $10.5 million and $22.5 million, respectively, of interest costs. The decline in our year-over-year interest expense was primarily the result of increased land purchases made during the last four quarters that resulted in a higher level of qualified assets. To the extent our debt exceeds our qualified assets in the future, we will expense a portion of the interest related to such debt.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recognized a $5.2 million loss in connection with the early extinguishment of all of our remaining senior notes due 2010, 2011 and 2013.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2011 primarily related to a $0.5 million recovery of a note receivable that had been previously written off and $0.4 million of interest income. Other income (expense) for the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily related to $1.0 million of interest income.

Other income (expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2010 primarily related to a $1.5 million recovery of a land option deposit that had been previously written off and a $0.5 million gain on sale of a note receivable. In addition, other income (expense) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 included $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of interest income.

(1) Represents the percentage change of net new orders per average number of selling communities during the period.
(2) Net new orders are new orders for the purchase of homes during the period, less cancellations of existing contracts during such period.
(3) Numbers presented regarding unconsolidated joint ventures reflect total net new orders and total average selling communities of such joint ventures.

Net new orders (excluding joint ventures) for the 2011 second quarter increased 6% to 764 new homes from the 2010 second quarter on a 20% increase in the number of average active selling communities from 127 to 153. Our cancellation rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was 14%, consistent with 15% for the 2010 second quarter and 14% for the 2011 first quarter. Our cancellation rate (excluding cancellations from current quarter sales) for homes in beginning backlog was 10% and 3%, respectively, for the 2011 and 2010 second quarter. Our monthly sales absorption rate for the 2011 second quarter was 1.7 per community, down from 1.9 per community for the 2010 second quarter, but up from 1.6 per community for the 2011 first quarter. The slower year-over-year absorption rates reflected weaker demand in a majority of our markets, driven by a housing supply/demand imbalance, low consumer confidence, high unemployment and the elimination of the Federal tax credit that expired in April 2010. These conditions have been magnified by the tightening of available mortgage credit for homebuyers and negative home equity for many perspective homebuyers who are looking to sell their existing homes.

The dollar value of our backlog (excluding joint ventures) as of June 30, 2011 increased 24% from the year earlier period to $293.8 million, or 781 homes. The increase in backlog value was driven primarily by a 6% increase in net new orders and a decrease in the percentage of homes delivered from beginning backlog in the 2011 second quarter as compared to the prior year period. Our consolidated average home price in backlog increased slightly to $376 thousand as of June 30, 2011 compared to $366 thousand as of June 30, 2010.

The number of completed and unsold homes (excluding joint ventures) as of June 30, 2011 increased 13% to 330 homes compared to June 30, 2010 primarily as a result of a 20% increase in the number of average selling communities for the 2011 second quarter compared to the 2010 second quarter and due to the slowdown in sales absorption rates we experienced beginning in the second half of 2010. In response to the slowdown in demand, we slowed home starts beginning in the second half of 2010, which resulted in a 9% decline in the number of speculative homes under construction (exclusive of joint ventures) as compared to June 30, 2010. We intend to continue to closely monitor future new home starts based on sales volume and the number of completed and unsold homes that we accumulate.

Financial Services

In the 2011 second quarter, our financial services subsidiary reported a pretax income of approximately $0.1 million compared to pretax income of $1.1 million in the year earlier period. The

decrease in pretax income was driven primarily by a 34% decrease in the volume of loans closed and sold compared to the year earlier period and a $0.5 million increase in loan loss reserve expense related to indemnification and repurchase reserves, from approximately $0.9 million for the 2010 second quarter to $1.4 million for the 2011 second quarter.

Income Taxes

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we generated deferred tax assets of $4.2 million and $9.8 million, respectively, related to pretax losses which were fully reserved against through a noncash valuation allowance. As of June 30, 2011, we had a $523.3 million deferred tax asset (excluding the $7.3 million deferred tax asset relating to our terminated interest rate swap) which has been fully reserved against by a corresponding deferred tax asset valuation allowance of the same amount. Approximately $128 million of our deferred tax asset represents unrealized built-in losses related primarily to inventory impairment charges which may be limited under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 depending on, among other things, when, and at what price, we dispose of the underlying assets. To the extent that we generate eligible taxable income in the future that allows us to utilize the deferred tax assets, we will, subject to applicable limitations, be able to reduce our effective tax rate. See Note 21 to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal uses of cash over the last several years have been for:

 

•       land acquisitions    •       construction and development expenditures

•       operating expenses

  

•       principal and interest payments on debt

•       joint ventures

  

•       market expansion

Table of Contents

Cash requirements over the last several years have been met by:

 

•       internally generated funds

 

•       bank revolving credit facility

 

•       land option contracts

 

•       land seller notes

 

•       sales of our equity through public and private offerings (including warrant and employee stock option exercises)

  

•       public and private note offerings (including convertible notes)

 

•       bank term loans

 

•       joint venture financings

 

•       assessment district bond financings

 

•       mortgage credit facilities

 

•       tax refunds

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we used $232.1 million of cash in operating activities versus generating $38.9 million of cash from operating activities in the year earlier period. The decline in cash flows from operating activities was driven primarily by a $144.5 million decrease in homebuilding revenues due to a 27% decline in new home deliveries, a $49.0 million increase in cash land purchases and a $108 million decrease attributable to the federal tax refund that was received in the 2010 first quarter. As of June 30, 2011, our homebuilding cash balance was $507.2 million (including $33.8 million in restricted cash).

Revolving Credit Facility. On February 28, 2011, we entered into a $210 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a bank group (the “Revolving Facility”). The Revolving Facility matures in February 2014 and has an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment may be increased up to $400 million, subject to the availability of additional bank commitments and certain other conditions. Substantially all of our 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries are guarantors of the Revolving Facility. As of June 30, 2011, we had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility. Our covenant compliance for the Revolving Facility is set forth in the table below:

(1) The minimum covenant requirement amount is subject to increase over time based on subsequent earnings (without deductions for losses) and proceeds from equity offerings.
(2) This ratio decreases to 2.50 to 1.00 for the period ending September 30, 2013 and thereafter. Net Homebuilding Debt represents Consolidated Homebuilding Debt reduced for certain cash balances in excess of a required reserve amount.
(3) Land not under development is land that has not yet undergone physical site improvement and has not been sold to a homebuyer or other third party.
(4) Under the liquidity and interest coverage covenant, we are required to either (i) maintain an unrestricted cash balance in excess of our consolidated interest expense for the previous four fiscal quarters or (ii) satisfy a minimum interest coverage ratio.
(5) The ratio increases to 1.25 to 1.00 beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2012, and to 1.50 to 1.00 beginning with the quarter ending March 31, 2013. Consolidated Interest Incurred excludes noncash interest expense.
(6) Net investments in unconsolidated homebuilding joint ventures or consolidated homebuilding non-guarantor entities must not exceed 35% of consolidated tangible net worth plus $80 million.
(7) As of June 30, 2011 our borrowing base plus our overadvance amount exceeded our borrowing base debt by approximately $271 million. However, our borrowing base availability is limited by our total commitment, which was $210 million as of June 30, 2011. In addition, the amount we can borrow under the Revolving Facility is limited by a mandatory prepayment requirement that further limits our permitted borrowings to $196.1 million as of June 30, 2011, which represents $100 million plus 90% of the book value of our completed model home inventory.

Letter of Credit Facilities. As of June 30, 2011 we were party to three letter of credit facilities that require cash collateralization. As of June 30, 2011, these facilities, which have maturity dates ranging from September 2011 to November 2011, had commitments that aggregated $51 million, had a total of $32.2 million outstanding, and were secured by cash collateral deposits of $33.7 million as of June 30, 2011. Upon maturity, we may renew or enter into new letter of credit facilities with the same or other financial institutions.

Senior and Senior Subordinated Notes. The principal amount outstanding of our senior and senior subordinated notes payable (excluding our convertible senior subordinated notes discussed below) consisted of the following:

   $ 1,299,750   
  

 

 

 

These notes contain various restrictive covenants. Our 10 3/4% Senior Notes due 2016 contain our most restrictive covenants, including a limitation on additional indebtedness and a limitation on restricted payments. Under the limitation on additional indebtedness, we are permitted to incur specified categories of indebtedness but are prohibited, aside from those exceptions, from incurring further indebtedness if we do not satisfy either a leverage condition or an interest coverage condition. Under the limitation on restricted payments, we are also prohibited from making restricted payments (which include dividends, investments in and advances to our joint ventures and other unrestricted subsidiaries), if we do not satisfy either condition. Our ability to make restricted payments is also subject to a basket limitation. As of June 30, 2011, we were able to satisfy the conditions necessary to incur additional indebtedness and to make restricted payments.

The leverage and interest coverage conditions contained in our 10 3/4% Senior Notes due 2016 (our most restrictive series of notes) are set forth in the table below:

 

Covenant Requirements

Total Leverage Ratio:

Interest Coverage Ratio:

     

EBITDA (as defined in the indenture) to Consolidated Interest Incurred

     0.55         ³  2.00   

 

(1) Indebtedness represents consolidated homebuilding debt reduced by cash held by Standard Pacific Corp. and its restricted subsidiaries in excess of $5 million. As of June 30, 2011, our unrestricted subsidiaries had approximately $457.6 million of cash. As of June 30, 2011, we retained the ability, at our option, to distribute substantially all of this cash to Standard Pacific Corp. If such a distribution were to occur, the Leverage Ratio would be positively impacted.

Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes. As of June 30, 2011, we had $39.6 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 outstanding (the “Convertible Notes”). In accordance with ASC Topic 470, Debt (“ASC 470”), a portion of our Convertible Notes has been classified in stockholders’ equity ($5.2 million as of June 30, 2011) and the remaining principal amount will be accreted to its redemption value of $39.6 million over the remaining term of these notes.

Potential Future Transactions. In the future, we may, from time to time, undertake negotiated or open market purchases of, or tender offers for, our notes prior to maturity when they can be purchased at prices that we believe are attractive. We may also, from time to time, engage in exchange transactions (including

 

-38-

debt for equity and debt for debt transactions) for all or part of our notes. Such transactions, if any, will depend on market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.

Joint Venture Loans. As described more particularly under the heading “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” beginning on page 40, our land development and homebuilding joint ventures have historically obtained secured acquisition, development and construction financing. This financing is designed to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the remaining $1.0 million of joint venture borrowings was repaid in full. As of June 30, 2011, we held interests in eight active joint ventures with no project specific financing outstanding.

Secured Project Debt and Other Notes Payable. At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $4.2 million outstanding in secured project debt and other notes payable. Our secured project debt and other notes payable consist of seller non-recourse financing and community development district and similar assessment district bond financings used to finance land development and infrastructure costs for which we are responsible.

Mortgage Credit Facilities. At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $34.9 million outstanding under our mortgage financing subsidiary’s mortgage credit facilities. As of such date, these mortgage credit facilities consisted of a $45 million repurchase facility and a $60 million early purchase facility with one lender, and a $50 million repurchase facility with another lender. The lenders generally do not have discretion to refuse to fund requests under these facilities if our mortgage loans comply with the requirements of the facility, although the lender of the $45 million repurchase facility has substantial discretion to modify these requirements from time to time, even if any such modification adversely affects our mortgage financing subsidiary’s ability to utilize the facility. These facilities require Standard Pacific Mortgage to maintain cash collateral accounts, which totaled approximately $2.9 million as of June 30, 2011, and also contain financial covenants which require Standard Pacific Mortgage to, among other things, maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, not to exceed a debt to tangible net worth ratio, maintain a minimum liquidity of $5 million (inclusive of the cash collateral requirement), and satisfy pretax income (loss) requirements. As of June 30, 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage was in compliance with the financial and other covenants contained in these facilities.

In July 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage renewed the $50 million repurchase facility, extending its maturity date to July 3, 2012. Standard Pacific Mortgage also extended the maturity date of the $45 million repurchase facility and $60 million early purchase facility from July 19, 2011 to August 18, 2011. Standard Pacific Mortgage is currently negotiating a further extension for the $60 million early purchase facility in connection with reducing the overall early purchase facility commitment amount.

Surety Bonds. Surety bonds serve as a source of liquidity for the Company because they are used in lieu of cash deposits and letters of credit that would otherwise be required by governmental entities and other third parties to ensure our completion of the infrastructure of our projects and other performance. At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $190.3 million in surety bonds outstanding (exclusive of surety bonds related to our joint ventures), with respect to which we had an estimated $73.4 million remaining in cost to complete.

Availability of Additional Liquidity. The availability of additional capital, whether from private capital sources (including banks) or the public capital markets, fluctuates as market conditions change. There may be times when the private capital markets and the public debt or equity markets lack sufficient liquidity or when our securities cannot be sold at attractive prices, in which case we would not be able to access capital from these sources. Based on current market conditions our ability to effectively access these liquidity sources may be limited. In addition, a further weakening of our financial condition or strength, including in particular a material increase in our leverage or a further decrease in our profitability or cash flows, could adversely affect our ability to obtain necessary funds, result in a credit rating downgrade or change in outlook, or otherwise increase our cost of borrowing.

Dividends. We paid no dividends to our stockholders during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Stock Repurchases. We did not repurchase capital stock during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Leverage. Our homebuilding leverage ratio was 68.5% at June 30, 2011 and our adjusted net homebuilding debt to adjusted total book capitalization was 57.3%. This adjusted ratio reflects the offset of homebuilding cash and excludes $34.9 million of indebtedness of our financial services subsidiary. We believe that this adjusted ratio is useful to investors as an additional measure of our ability to service debt. Our leverage level has been negatively impacted over the last several years due to the reduction in our equity base as a result of the significant level of impairments, operating losses and deferred tax valuation allowances recorded by us, as well as by the debt we have had to assume in connection with joint venture unwinds. The impact of these impairments on our leverage has been offset in part by the $662 million in equity we raised in 2008, the $32.8 million in debt for equity exchanges completed during 2010, and the $187.5 million equity issuance in December 2010. Excluding the impact and timing of recording impairments and new land purchases, historically, our leverage increases during the first three quarters of the year and tapers off at year end, as we typically experience the highest new home order activity in the spring and summer months and deliver a greater number of homes in the second half of the calendar year as the prior orders are converted to home deliveries.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Land Purchase and Option Agreements

We are subject to customary obligations associated with entering into contracts for the purchase of land and improved homesites. These purchase contracts typically require a cash deposit or delivery of a letter of credit, 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 third-party financial entities 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. Option contracts generally require a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at predetermined 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 or by repaying amounts drawn under our letter of credit with no further financial responsibility to the land seller, although in certain instances, the land seller has the right to compel us to purchase a specified number of lots at predetermined prices. Also, in a few instances where we have entered into option contracts with third party financial entities, we have generally entered into construction agreements that do not terminate if we elect not to exercise our option. In these instances, we are generally obligated to complete land development improvements on the optioned property at a predetermined cost (paid by the option provider) and are responsible for all cost overruns. At June 30, 2011, we had one option contract outstanding with a third party financial entity with approximately $0.8 million of remaining land development improvement costs, all of which is anticipated to be funded by the option provider. In some instances, we may also expend funds for due diligence, development and construction activities with respect to our land purchase and option contracts prior to purchase, which we would have to write off should we not purchase the land. At June 30, 2011, we had non-refundable cash deposits and letters of credit outstanding of approximately $23.7 million and capitalized preacquisition and other development and construction costs of approximately $3.5 million relating to land purchase and option contracts having a total remaining purchase price of approximately $230.1 million. Approximately $35.5 million of the remaining purchase price is included in inventories not owned in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Our utilization of option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into option takedown arrangements, the availability of capital to financial intermediaries, general housing market conditions, and geographic preferences. Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions.

Land Development and Homebuilding Joint Ventures

Historically, we have entered into land development and homebuilding joint ventures from time to time as a means of:

 

•       accessing lot positions

 

•       establishing strategic alliances

 

•       leveraging our capital base

  

•       expanding our market opportunities

 

•       managing the financial and market risk associated with land holdings

These joint ventures have historically obtained secured acquisition, development and construction financing, which was designed to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources.

As of June 30, 2011, we held membership interests in 19 homebuilding and land development joint ventures, of which eight were active and 11 were inactive or winding down. As of such date, our joint ventures had no project specific financing outstanding.

As of June 30, 2011, we had $13.4 million of joint venture surety bonds outstanding subject to indemnity arrangements by us and had an estimated $0.8 million remaining in cost to complete.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those that impact our most critical accounting policies. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that the accounting policies related to the following accounts or activities are those that are most critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require the more significant judgments and estimates:

 

   

Segment reporting;

 

   

Inventories and impairments;

 

   

Homebuilding revenue and cost of sales;

 

   

Variable interest entities;

 

   

Limited partnerships and limited liability companies;

 

   

Unconsolidated homebuilding and land development joint ventures;

 

   

Business combinations and goodwill;

 

   

Warranty accruals;

 

   

Insurance and litigation accruals; and

 

   

Income taxes.

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies from those described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our rate-locked loan commitments, mortgage loans held for sale and outstanding variable rate debt. We did not utilize swaps, forward or option contracts on interest rates, foreign currencies or commodities, or other types of derivative financial instruments as of or during the six months ended June 30, 2011. We do not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Many of the statements contained in this section are forward looking and should be read in conjunction with our disclosures under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements.”

As part of our ongoing operations, we provide mortgage loans to our homebuyers through our mortgage financing subsidiary, Standard Pacific Mortgage. Standard Pacific Mortgage manages the interest rate risk associated with making loan commitments and holding loans for sale by preselling loans. Preselling loans consists of obtaining commitments (subject to certain conditions) from third party investors to purchase the mortgage loans while concurrently extending interest rate locks to loan applicants. Before completing the sale to these investors, Standard Pacific Mortgage finances these loans under its mortgage credit facilities for a short period of time (typically for 15 to 30 days), while the investors complete their administrative review of the applicable loan documents. While preselling these loans reduces our risk, we remain subject to risk relating to investor non-performance, particularly during periods of significant market turmoil. As of June 30, 2011, Standard Pacific Mortgage had approximately $37.4 million in closed mortgage loans held for sale and $36.7 million of mortgage loans that we were committed to sell to investors subject to our funding of the loans and completion of the investors’ administrative review of the applicable loan documents.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), including controls and procedures to timely alert management to material information relating to Standard Pacific Corp. and subsidiaries required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
