Current report

New Orders decreased 11% while the average sales price remained relatively flat in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Current report

New Orders and the average sales price of New Orders decreased 11% and 1%, respectively, in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

The increase in SG&A expense was primarily attributable to a $9,900 increase in personnel costs attributable to an increase in headcount year over year. Additionally, sales and marketing expenses were approximately $3,700 higher year over year due to an increase in model home related expenses and advertising costs.

Current report

The Mid Atlantic segment had an approximate $17,800, or 9%, decrease in segment profit in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in gross profit margins to 23.5% in the second quarter of 2025 from 24.8% in the same period of 2024.

Segment revenues increased due to an 11% increase in the average settlement price quarter over quarter, offset partially by a 3% decrease in the number of units settled. The increase in the average settlement price is attributable primarily to an 11% higher average price of units in backlog entering the second quarter of 2025 compared to backlog entering the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in settlements is attributable to a 12% lower backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2025 compared to the backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2024, offset partially by a higher backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The segment's gross profit margin percentage remained relatively flat quarter over quarter.

Current report

Segment New Orders decreased 15% while the average sales price of New Orders increased 5% in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Segment revenues decreased by approximately $32,400, or 5%, quarter over quarter due primarily to a 4% decrease in the number of units settled. The decrease in settlements is attributable to a 9% lower backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2025 compared to the backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2024, offset partially by a higher backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter, SG&A expenses were 19% higher quarter over quarter, resulting primarily from higher personnel and marketing costs attributable to a 25% increase in the average number of active communities quarter over quarter.

Current report

Segment profit for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased by approximately $15,400, or 33%, from the same period in 2024. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of approximately $14,000, or 22%, in mortgage banking fees due to a decrease in gains on sales of loans.

Current report

We have an unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a group of lenders which may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Previous report

Segment profit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased by approximately $4,100, or 14%, from the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in mortgage banking fees, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses. Mortgage banking fees increased by approximately $5,300, or 11%, due to higher gains on sales of loans. General and administrative expenses increased by $800, or 3%, which was the result of increased personnel costs.

Previous report

On March 11, 2025, we entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Amended Credit Agreement") providing for a five year, $300,000 senior unsecured revolving credit facility among the lenders which may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Amended Credit Agreement replaced the Company's previous credit agreement dated February 12, 2021 and most recently amended December 9, 2022, that contained substantially similar terms, and extends the maturity date from February 11, 2026 to March 11, 2030. The Amended Credit Agreement has an uncommitted accordion feature allowing the Company to increase the aggregate commitment to $600 million, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional Lender commitments.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024

Previous wording

During the first quarter of 2025, demand for new homes was negatively impacted by continued affordability issues, declining consumer confidence and economic volatility. We expect that affordability issues, interest rate volatility and economic volatility may continue to weigh on demand and home prices. We also expect to continue to face margin pressure due to the previously mentioned affordability issues and cost pressure. Although we are unable to predict the extent to which this will impact our operational and financial performance, we believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities that may arise from future economic and homebuilding market volatility due to the strength of our balance sheet and our disciplined lot acquisition strategy.

Previous wording

Homebuilding revenues increased 3% in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, as a result of a 1% increase in the number of units settled coupled with a 2% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in the number of units settled was attributable to a higher backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The increase in the average settlement price was primarily attributable to a 4% higher average sales price of units in backlog entering 2025 compared to backlog entering 2024. The gross profit margin percentage in the first quarter of 2025 decreased to 21.9%, compared to 24.5% in the first quarter of 2024. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by higher lot costs and pricing pressure due to continued affordability challenges. Additionally, gross profit margins were negatively impacted by an approximate $8,100 lot deposit impairment charge in the first quarter of 2025 compared to an approximate $7,500 expense reversal related to previously impaired lot deposits in the first quarter of 2024.

Current wording

Homebuilding revenues increased 1% in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, as a result of a 3% increase in the average settlement price, offset partially by a 1% decrease in the number of units settled. The increase in the average settlement price was primarily attributable to a 4% higher average sales price of units in backlog entering 2025 compared to the backlog entering 2024. The decrease in settlements was attributable to a 3% lower backlog unit balance entering 2025 compared to the backlog unit balance entering 2024. Gross profit margin percentage in the first six months of 2025 decreased to 21.7% from 24.0% in the first six months of 2024. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by higher lot costs, pricing pressure due to continued affordability challenges and a lot deposit impairment charge of approximate $21,300 in the first half of 2025. In the first half of 2024, the Company recorded an approximate $8,800 expense reversal related to previously impaired lot deposits.

Previous wording

Our backlog represents homes sold but not yet settled with our customers. As of March 31, 2025, our backlog decreased on a unit basis by 9% to 10,165 units and on a dollar basis by 7% to $4,837,847 when compared to 11,189 units and $5,218,598, respectively, as of March 31, 2024. The decrease in the number of backlog units was primarily attributable to a 3% lower backlog unit balance entering 2025 compared to the backlog unit balance entering 2024 coupled with the aforementioned 12% decrease in new orders quarter over quarter. Backlog dollars were lower primarily due to the decrease in backlog units in 2025.

Current wording

Our backlog represents homes sold but not yet settled with our customers. As of June 30, 2025, our backlog decreased on a unit and dollar basis by 13% to 10,069 units and $4,753,905, respectively, when compared to 11,597 units and $5,454,470, respectively, as of June 30, 2024. The decrease in the number of backlog units was primarily attributable to an 11% decrease in New Orders year over year, coupled with a 3% lower backlog unit balance entering 2025 compared to the backlog unit balance entering 2024. Backlog dollars were lower primarily due to the decrease in backlog units in 2025.

Previous wording

Our backlog may be impacted by customer cancellations for various reasons that are beyond our control, such as failure to obtain mortgage financing, inability to sell an existing home, job loss, or a variety of other reasons. In any period, a portion of the cancellations that we experience are related to new sales that occurred during the same period, and a portion are related to sales that occurred in prior periods and therefore appeared in the opening backlog for the current period. Our first quarter cancellation rate was approximately 16% and 13% for 2025 and 2024, respectively, calculated as the total of all cancellations during the period as a percentage of gross sales during that same period. During the most recent four quarters, approximately 5% of the quarter’s opening backlog cancelled during the fiscal quarter. We can provide no assurance that our historical cancellation rates are indicative of the actual cancellation rate that may occur during the remainder of 2025 or future years. Other than those units that are cancelled, we expect to settle substantially all of our March 31, 2025 backlog within the next twelve months.

We record impairment charges on contract land deposits when we determine that it is probable that recovery of the deposit is impaired. For segment reporting purposes, impairments on contract land deposits are generally charged to the operating segment upon the termination of an LPA with the developer, or the restructuring of an LPA resulting in the forfeiture of the deposit. We evaluate our entire net contract land deposit portfolio for impairment each quarter. For presentation purposes below, the contract land deposit allowance as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 has been allocated to the respective year’s reportable segments to show contract land deposits on a net basis. The net contract land deposit balances below also include approximately $4,600 and $8,700 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, of letters of credit issued as deposits in lieu of cash.

Previous wording

The Mid Atlantic segment had an approximate $3,100, or 2%, decrease in segment profit in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, due primarily to a decrease in gross profit margins to 24.1% in the first quarter of 2025 from 25.7% in the same period of 2024, offset partially by a 6% increase in revenues quarter over quarter. Gross profit margins were negatively impacted by higher lot costs and pricing pressure due primarily to continued affordability challenges. Segment revenues increased due to a 4% increase in the number of units settled, coupled with a 2% increase in the average settlement price quarter over quarter. The increase in the number of units settled was attributable to a higher backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter.

Current wording

The Mid Atlantic segment had an approximate $20,900, or 5%, decrease in segment profit in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in gross profit margins to 23.8% in the first six months of 2025 from 25.2% in the first six months of 2024, offset partially by a 3% increase in segment revenues. Gross profit margins were negatively impacted by higher lot costs and pricing pressure due primarily to continued affordability challenges. Segment revenues increased due to a 3% higher average settlement price in 2025 compared to 2024 attributable primarily to a 4% higher average sales price of units in backlog entering 2025 compared to backlog entering 2024.

The North East segment had an approximate $8,300, or 18%, increase in segment profit in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, due primarily to an increase in segment revenues of approximately $33,200, or 13%. Segment revenues increased due primarily to an 11% increase in the average settlement price quarter over quarter, attributable to a 9% higher average price of units in backlog entering 2025 compared to backlog entering 2024. The segment’s gross profit margin percentage remained relatively flat quarter over quarter.

Current wording

The North East segment had an approximate $11,800, or 12%, increase in segment profit in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024, due primarily to an increase in segment revenue of approximately $54,800, or 10%. Segment revenues were favorably impacted by an 11% increase in the average settlement price year over year. The increase in the average settlement price was primarily attributable to a 9% higher average sales price of units in backlog entering 2025 compared to backlog entering 2024. The segment's gross profit margin percentage remained relatively flat year over year.

Previous wording

The number of New Orders decreased 12% and the average sales price decreased 1% in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024. New Orders were negatively impacted by a 6% decrease in the average number of active communities and a lower sales absorption rate, due in part to a higher cancellation rate quarter over quarter. The decrease in the average sales price of New Orders is primarily attributable to a shift in New Orders to our South East segment, which has lower average sales prices than our other segments.

Current wording

Segment New Orders decreased 14% while the average sales price of New Orders increased 4% in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024. New Orders were negatively impacted by a 6% decrease in the number of active communities and an 8% lower sales absorption rate year over year. The average sales price of New Orders was favorably impacted by a shift to higher priced communities in certain markets within the segment year over year.

Previous wording

Segment New Orders increased 1% while the average sales price of New Orders decreased 4% in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the first quarter of 2024. The increase in New Orders was primarily attributable to a 20% increase in average number of active communities, offset by a 16% lower absorption rate within the segment quarter over quarter. Both the absorption rate and the average sales price of New Orders have been negatively impacted by rising inventory levels in several of the markets within the segment.

Current wording

Segment New Orders and the average sales price of New Orders decreased 4% and 1%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. New Orders were negatively impacted by a 23% lower absorption rate, offset partially by the aforementioned increase in the average number of active communities within the segment quarter over quarter. Both the absorption rate and the average sales price of New Orders have been negatively impacted by rising resale and new home inventory in several of the markets within the segment.

Previous wording

The South East segment had an approximate $45,700, or 50%, decrease in segment profit in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in segment profit was primarily due to a decrease in the segment's gross profit margin percentage, a decrease in segment revenues and an increase in SG&A expenses. The segment’s gross profit margin percentage decreased to 19.7% in the first quarter of 2025 from 24.5% in the first quarter of 2024. Gross profit margins were negatively impacted by higher lot costs, an increase in certain operating costs, and by pricing pressure attributable to continued affordability challenges. Segment revenues decreased approximately $29,100, or 5%, quarter over quarter primarily due to a 4% decrease in the average settlement price. The decrease in the average settlement price was attributable to a 1% lower average sales price of units in backlog entering 2025 compared to backlog entering 2024, and a shift in settlements to lower priced markets within the segment. SG&A expenses were 22% higher quarter over quarter, resulting primarily from higher personnel costs and by higher marketing costs associated a 20% increase in the average number of active communities.

Current wording

The South East segment had an approximate $88,600, or 48%, decrease in segment profit in the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024. The decrease in segment profit was primarily due to a decrease in the segment's gross profit margin percentage, a decrease in segment revenues and an increase in SG&A expenses. The segment's gross profit margin percentage decreased to 19.2% in the first six months of 2024 from 23.3% in the first six months of 2024. Gross profit margins were negatively impacted by higher lot costs, an increase in certain operating costs, and by pricing pressure attributable to continued affordability challenges. Segment revenues decreased by approximately $61,500, or 5%, due to a 3% decrease in the number of units settled, coupled with a 2% decrease in the average settlement price. The decrease in settlements is attributable to an 11% lower backlog unit balance entering 2025 compared to the backlog entering 2024, offset partially by a higher backlog turnover rate year over year. The decrease in the average settlement price is primarily attributable to a 1% lower average sales price of homes in backlog entering 2025 compared to backlog entering 2024. SG&A expenses were 20% higher year over year, resulting primarily from higher personnel and marketing costs attributable to a 23% increase in the average number of active communities quarter over quarter.
