Homebuilding revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 increased 5% to $2.4 billion from $2.3 billion in the same quarter of fiscal 2015. Homes closed in the quarter increased 1% to 8,061 homes, compared to 7,973 homes in the prior year quarter.
Net sales orders for the first quarter ended December 31, 2015 increased 9% to 8,064 homes and 12% in value to $2.4 billion, compared to 7,370 homes and $2.1 billion in the prior year quarter.

The Company's sales order backlog of homes under contract at December 31, 2015 increased 15% to 10,665 homes and 16% in value to $3.2 billion, compared to 9,285 homes and $2.7 billion at December 31, 2014.
The Company ended the quarter with $1.2 billion of homebuilding unrestricted cash and gross homebuilding debt to total capital of 35.5%. Net homebuilding debt to total capital was 25.7%. Net homebuilding debt to total capital consists of homebuilding notes payable net of cash divided by total equity plus homebuilding notes payable net of cash.
The Company has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.08 per common share. The dividend is payable on February 17, 2016 to stockholders of record on February 5, 2016.
Donald R. Horton, Chairman of the Board, said, "The D.R. Horton team started the year with a strong first quarter, highlighted by $241.3 million of pre-tax income on $2.4 billion of revenues. Our pre-tax profit margin improved 40 basis points from the prior year quarter to 10.0%. The value of our net sales orders increased by 12%, our home sales revenue increased by 4% and the value of our sales order backlog increased by 16%.
"Solid performance in our three core brands is enabling us to capitalize on market opportunities and expand our industry-leading market share. With a sales backlog of 10,665 homes at the end of December, positive sales trends in January and a robust lot supply and inventory of homes available for sale, we are well-positioned for the spring selling season and fiscal 2016. We remain focused on growing our revenues and pre-tax profits at a double-digit annual pace, while generating positive cash flows and improved returns."

Portions of this document may constitute "forward-looking statements" as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although D.R. Horton believes any such statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that actual outcomes will not be materially different. All forward-looking statements are based upon information available to D.R. Horton on the date this release was issued. D.R. Horton does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements in this release include that solid performance in our three core brands is enabling us to capitalize on market opportunities and expand our industry-leading market share and that with a sales backlog of 10,665 homes at the end of December, positive sales trends in January and a robust lot supply and inventory of homes available for sale, we are well-positioned for the spring selling season and fiscal 2016. The forward-looking statements also include that we remain focused on growing our revenues and pre-tax profits at a double-digit annual pace, while generating positive cash flows and improved returns.
Factors that may cause the actual results to be materially different from the future results expressed by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the cyclical nature of the homebuilding industry and changes in economic, real estate and other conditions; constriction of the credit markets, which could limit our ability to access capital and increase our costs of capital; reductions in the availability of mortgage financing and the liquidity provided by government-sponsored enterprises, the effects of government programs, a decrease in our ability to sell mortgage loans on attractive terms or an increase in mortgage interest rates; the risks associated with our land and lot inventory; home warranty and construction defect claims; supply shortages and other risks of acquiring land, building materials and skilled labor; reductions in the availability of performance bonds; increases in the costs of owning a home; the impact of an inflationary, deflationary or higher interest rate environment; the effects of governmental regulations and environmental matters on our homebuilding operations; the effects of governmental regulations on our financial services operations; our substantial debt and our ability to comply with related debt covenants, restrictions and limitations; competitive conditions within the homebuilding and financial services industries; our ability to effect our growth strategies or acquisitions successfully; the effects of the loss of key personnel; the effects of negative publicity; and information technology failures and data security breaches. Additional information about issues that could lead to material changes in performance is contained in D.R. Horton's annual report on Form 10-K which is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
