LGI Homes, Inc. Reports February 2017 Home Closings

THE WOODLANDS, Texas, March 03, 2017 -- LGI Homes, Inc. (Nasdaq:LGIH) today announced 224 homes closed in February 2017, compared to 245 home closings in February 2016. The Company ended the first two months of 2017 with 396 home closings, compared to 477 home closings during the first two months of 2016.

As of the end of February 2017, the Company had 65 active selling communities.

“Although closings year to date are down year over year, sales are off to a strong start in 2017 and demand for homeownership remains solid,” said Eric Lipar, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. “Assuming that general economic conditions, including interest rates and mortgage availability, in the remainder of 2017 are similar to those in the fourth quarter of 2016, we believe we are on track to close more than 4,700 homes in 2017.”
