Current report

During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the sales environment remained challenging due to elevated mortgage rates, weak consumer sentiment, and continued uncertainties in the macroeconomic environment. In response, we are taking a disciplined approach to our operations and capital allocation by slowing land spend to match current market conditions, renegotiating land acquisition terms to reduce costs and enhance flexibility, and pursuing capital-efficient growth opportunities through expanded usage of lot option agreements. Additionally, with our shares currently trading below book value, we prioritized share repurchases, buying back approximately 586,000 shares of our common stock for $12.5 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

Current report

While the headwinds of affordability and consumer sentiment continue to create challenges for us and our peers, we are committed to leaning into our differentiators, as follows: (1) our Mortgage Choice platform which identifies qualified lenders and encourages multiple lenders to compete for our customer's business with the most competitive interest rates, fees, and service levels; (2) our Choice Plans®which allow customers to select from a list of structural options that meets their lifestyle at no additional cost; and (3) our homes are designed to deliver Surprising Performance with nearly all new home starts built to Zero Energy Ready standards, reducing the cost to operate a home. We continue to enhance the durability and quality of our homes through innovative design and superior construction standards, reinforcing our commitment to delivering high-quality, differentiated homes in desirable locations.

Current report

•During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, our average active community count of 167 was up 14.9% from 146 in the prior year quarter. We invested $153.8 million in land acquisition and land development during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, down from$201.1 million in land spend during the quarter ended June 30, 2024. We expect the pace of community growth to moderate as we strategically reallocate a portion of our land investment toward reaching our Multi-Year Goals of deleveraging and growth in book value per share. This shift underscores our confidence in the long-term value of our business and reinforces our commitment to enhancing shareholder returns while reducing risk.

Current report

•Homebuilding gross margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was 13.5%, down from 17.3% compared to the prior year quarter. Homebuilding gross margin was impacted by inventory impairment and abandonment charges of $8.9 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, of which $8.6 million related to impairments recorded for two projects in progress communities, one located in our Phoenix market and the other in our Orlando market, principally due to a reduction in price that is other than temporary based on current competitive and market dynamics. The remaining $0.2 million represents abandonment charges related to a land acquisition deal we terminated during the quarter. Refer to Note 4 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q for further discussion. Homebu ilding gross margin, excluding impairments, abandonments, and interest for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, was 18.4%, down from 20.3% in the prior year quarter. The decrease in homebuilding gross margin, excluding impairments, abandonments, and interest, compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to an increase in price concessions and closing cost incentives, an increased share of spec home closings which generally have lower margins than "to be built" homes, and changes in product and community mix.

Current report

Net new orders for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to 2,891, down 9.4% from the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in net new orders compared to the prior year period was driven by an 22.0% decrease in sales pace from 2.5 orders per community per month in the prior year period to 2.0, partially offset by a 16.2% increase in average active community count from 141 in the prior year period to 164.

Current report

West Segment: Net new orders for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to 1,736, down 17.6% from the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

Current report

East Segment: Homebuilding revenue increased by 20.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the prior year quarter due to a 12.6% increase in ASP and a 6.7% increase in closings. The increase in closings was primarily due to higher share of homes near completion within beginning backlog as well as improved construction cycle times compared to prior year quarter.

Current report

West Segment: Compared to the prior year quarter, homebuilding gross profit decreased by $19.2 million due to a decrease in homebuilding revenue and lower gross margin. Homebuilding gross margin, excluding impairments and abandonments, decreased to 18.1%, down from 20.6% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to an increase in price concessions and closing cost incentives, an increased share of spec home closings which generally have lower margins than "to be built" homes, and changes in product and community mix.

Current report

East Segment: Compared to the prior year quarter, homebuilding gross profit increased by $6.3 million due to an increase in homebuilding revenue and higher gross margin. Homebuilding gross margin, excluding impairments and abandonments, increased to 17.8%, up from 16.3% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to changes in product and community mix as we closed more homes at higher margin communities, partially offset by an increase in price concessions.

Current report

West Segment: Compared to the prior year period, homebuilding gross profit decreased by $21.8 million due to lower gross margin, partially offset by an increase in homebuilding revenue. Homebuilding gross margin, excluding impairments and abandonments, decreased to 18.5%, down from 21.2% in the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in price concessions and closing cost incentives, an increased share of spec home closings which generally have lower margins than "to be built" homes, and changes in product and community mix.

Current report

East Segment: Compared to the prior year period, homebuilding gross profit increased by $5.8 million due to an increase in homebuilding revenue, partially offset by lower gross margin. Homebuilding gross margin, excluding impairments and abandonments, decreased to 16.0%, down from 17.8% in the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in price concessions and closing cost incentives, an increased share of spec home closings which generally have lower margins than "to be built" homes, and changes in product and community mix.

Current report

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, land sales and other revenue increased by $3.9 million to $10.0 million, and land sales and other gross profit decreased by $1.2 million to $0.1 million compared to the prior year quarter. For the nine months ended June 30, 2025, land sales and other revenue increased by $13.0 million to $27.8 million, and land sales and other gross profit decreased by $0.1 million to $4.1 million compared to the prior year period.

Current report

During thethree months ended June 30, 2025, we performed a strategic review of a community in our Phoenix market and determined to sell a portion of the lots that were no longer aligned with our operating plans. As a result of this change in strategy, we reclassified 38 lots from project in progress to land held for sale and recognized a land held for sale impairment charge of$1.5 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025. No land held for sale impairments were recognized during the three and nine ended June 30, 2024. Refer to Note 4 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q for further discussion.

Current report

West Segment: The $18.2 million decrease in operating income compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to the lower gross profit previously discussed, including the impact of $3.1 million inventory impairments and abandonments recognized during the current quarter, partially offset by lower commissions expense on lower homebuilding revenue.

Current report

Southeast Segment: The $15.3 million decrease in operating income compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to the lower gross profit previously discussed, including the impact of $5.6 million inventory impairments and abandonments recognized during the current quarter, and higher other G&A expenses, partially offset by lower commissions expense on lower homebuilding revenue.

Current report

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law. The OBBBA repeals many of the energy efficiency credits enacted under the Inflation Reduction Act, including our ability to claim energy efficient new home tax credits for homes that close after June 30, 2026. While this change does not impact our fiscal 2025 effective tax rate and deferred tax balances, we are evaluating the full impact of OBBBA on our future tax provision and financial results.

Previous report

During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the housing market was slower than expected as the macroeconomic environment became increasingly uncertain, which negatively impacted consumer sentiment, intensified persistent affordability challenges, and weakened demand. Despite this challenging operating environment, we believe longer-term housing market conditions remain favorable as shortfalls in production over the past decade have contributed to an undersupply of housing.

Previous report

During fiscal 2023, we established three Multi-Year Goals centered on growth, deleveraging, and product differentiation, which have since guided our capital allocation strategy. We remain dedicated to these objectives in support of our business:

Previous report

•Growth: reaching more than 200 active communities by the end of fiscal 2026. Our March 31, 2025 active community count was 162 communities, up 11.7% from March 31, 2024 and 33.9% from March 31, 2023.

Previous report

•Deleveraging: reducing our net debt to net capitalization ratio to below 30% by the end of fiscal 2026. As of March 31, 2025, our net debt to net capitalization ratio was up moderately from March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 due to higher land investment. However, the cumulative profitability and cash flow we anticipate over the remainder of the year will allow us to make strides in reducing this ratio.

Previous report

•Product differentiation: fulfilling our commitment that by the end of the calendar year 2025 every home we start will be Zero Energy Ready. Nearly 99% of the Company's fiscal second quarter new home starts are being built to Zero Energy Ready standards, up from 43% at March 31, 2024 and 4% at March 31, 2023.

Previous report

In February 2025, we announced an acceleration of the pace of our share repurchases given the opportunity to purchase our stock at a significant discount to book value. In tandem, we modified our multi-year deleveraging goal to reduce our net debt to net capitalization ratio to the“low 30% range” by the end of fiscal 2026. By the end of the second quarter, we had repurchased $20.6 million, or approximately 905,000 shares, of our common stock, bringing our total repurchases to $41.7 million over the past three years.

Previous report

With challenging housing market conditions and our shares trading at a significant discount to book value, we have decided to slow our community count growth and deleveraging efforts to accommodate more share repurchases. To that end, in April 2025, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to $100.0 million of our outstanding common stock, which we expect to execute over multiple years.

Previous report

Reflecting our revised capital allocation priorities, we are updating our Multi-Year Goals as follows:

Previous report

•During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, our average active community count of 163 was up 15.9% from 140 in the prior year quarter. As of March 31, 2025, our ending active community count was 162, up 11.7% from 145 in the prior year quarter. We invested $197.0 million in land acquisition and land development during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, which was relatively flat compared to$197.8 million in land spend during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Previous report

•Homebuilding gross margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was 15.1%, down from 18.7% compared to the prior year quarter. Homebu ilding gross margin, excluding impairments, abandonments, and interest for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, was 18.3%, down from 21.7% in the prior year quarter. The decrease in homebuilding gross margin compared to the prior year quarter was largely due to an increase in price concessions and closing cost incentives, an increased share of spec home closings which generally have lower margins than "to be built" homes, and changes in product and community mix.

Previous report

Net new orders for the six months ended March 31, 2025 decreased to 2,030, down 4.3% from the six months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net new orders compared to the prior year period was driven by an 18.1% decrease in sales pace from 2.6 orders per community per month in the prior year period to 2.1, partially offset by a 16.8% increase in average active community count from 139 in the prior year period to 162.

Reworded paragraphs (55)

Previous wording

•Growth: reaching more than 200 active communities by the end of fiscal 2027,

Current wording

For the remainder of fiscal 2025, we will continue to focus on deleveraging, growing book value per share, and positioning our business for durable long-term growth. Our Multi-Year Goals, updated during the second quarter of fiscal 2025, include reducing our net debt to net capitalization ratio to the low 30% range by the end of fiscal 2027, achieving a double-digit compound annual growth in book value per share from the end of fiscal 2024 through fiscal 2027, and reaching more than 200 active communities by the end of fiscal 2027. With a path to 200 active communities in sight, supported by our current land position, we are prioritizing deleveraging and book value growth. Backed by a strong balance sheet, ample liquidity, and a focused sales strategy, we believe we are well-equipped to navigate the macroeconomic uncertainty as we continue to progress toward our Multi-Year Goals.

Previous wording

•As of March 31, 2025, our land position included 28,290 controlled lots, up 5.2% from 26,887 as of March 31, 2024. Excluding land held for future development and land held for sale lots, we controlled 27,514 active lots, up 4.9% from a year ago. This growth was achieved through expanded usage of lot option agreements, which allow us to position for future growth while providing the flexibility to respond to market conditions. As of March 31, 2025, we had 16,322 lots, or 59.3% of our total active lots, under option agreements as compared to 13,527 lots, or 51.6% of our total active lots, under option agreements as of March 31, 2024.

Current wording

•As of June 30, 2025, our land position included 27,794 controlled lots, down 2.0% from 28,365 as of June 30, 2024. Excluding land held for future development and land held for sale lots, we controlled 26,944 active lots, down 3.2% from a year ago. We remain focused on the expanded usage of lot option agreements, which allow us to position for future growth while providing the flexibility to respond to market conditions. As of June 30, 2025, we had 16,195 lots, or 60.1% of our total active lots, under option agreements as compared to 15,434 lots, or 55.5% of our total active lots, under option agreements as of June 30, 2024.

Previous wording

•During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, orders per community per month were 2.3 compared to 3.1 in the prior year quarter, and our net new orders were 1,098, down 15.5% from 1,299 in the prior year quarter. The decrease in sales pace compared to the prior year quarter reflected weaker consumer sentiment driven by affordability challenges and uncertainties in the macroeconomic environment.

Current wording

•During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, orders per community per month were 1.7 compared to 2.4 in the prior year quarter, and our net new orders were 861, down 19.5% from 1,070 in the prior year quarter. Sales pace fell short of expectations, softening in May and remained subdued in June. The decrease in sales pace compared to the prior year quarter reflected weaker consumer sentiment driven by affordability challenges and uncertainties in the macroeconomic environment. While all of our markets experienced challenging market conditions, we saw the most pronounced pressure in our Houston, San Antonio and Orlando markets. We continue to adjust prices and features to align with the current market, including offering rate buy-downs and other closing incentives.

Previous wording

•Our backlog Average Selling Price (ASP) for homes sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was$544.9 thousand, up 3.7% from$525.5 thousandin the prior year quarter. The increase in backlog ASP compared to prior year quarterwas due to changes in product and community mix as well as price appreciation in certain communities.

Current wording

•Our Average Selling Price (ASP) for homes closed during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was $517.3 thousand, up 2.4% from $505.3 thousand in the prior year quarter. The increase in ASP compared to prior year quarter was primarily due to changes in product and community mix in the East segment.

Previous wording

•SG&A for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was 12.0% of total revenue, up from 11.5% in the prior year quarter. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of total revenue compared to the prior year quarter was largely due to higher sales and marketing costs and other G&A expenses as we continue to grow and activate new communities. We remain focused on prudently managing overhead costs.

Current wording

•SG&A for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was 13.2% of total revenue, up from 11.9% in the prior year quarter. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of total revenue compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to lower homebuilding revenue. We remain focused on prudently managing overhead costs.

Previous wording

Our homebuilding operating cycle historically has reflected escalating new order activity in the second and third fiscal quarters and increased closings in the third and fourth fiscal quarters. However, these seasonal patterns may be impacted by a variety of factors, including periods of market volatility and changes in mortgage interest rates, which may result in increased or decreased new orders and/or revenues and closings that are outside of the normal ranges typically realized on account of seasonality. Accordingly, our financial results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025 may not be indicative of our full year results.

Previous wording

(a)Excluding impairments, abandonments, and interest amortized to cost of sales, homebuilding gross margin was 18.3% and 21.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 18.3% and 22.2% for the six months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Please see the "Homebuilding Gross Profit and Gross Margin" section below for a reconciliation of homebuilding gross profit and the related gross margin excluding impairments and abandonments and interest amortized tocost of sales (non-GAAP measures) to homebuilding gross profit and gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Current wording

(a)Excluding impairments, abandonments, and interest amortized to cost of sales, homebuilding gross margin was 18.4% and 20.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 18.3% and 21.4% for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Please see the "Homebuilding Gross Profit and Gross Margin" section below for a reconciliation of homebuilding gross profit and the related gross margin excluding impairments and abandonments and interest amortized tocost of sales (non-GAAP measures) to homebuilding gross profit and gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Previous wording

(c) Calculated as tax expense for the period divided by income from continuing operations. Our income tax expenses are not always directly correlated to the amount of pre-tax income for the associated period due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the impact of tax credits and permanent differences. Our tax credits are predominantly due to the energy efficiency of our homes and, historically, were valued at $2,000 per single family home. The Inflation Reduction Act increased these credits to $2,500 or $5,000 per single family home meeting Energy Star or Zero Energy Ready qualifications, respectively. As we work towards our goal of building 100% Zero Energy Ready homes, we expect our energy efficiency tax credits to continue to shift towards $5,000 per single family home.

Current wording

(c) Calculated as tax (benefit) expense for the period divided by (loss) income from continuing operations before income taxes. Our income tax (benefit) expense is not always directly correlated to the amount of pre-tax (loss) income for the associated period due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the impact of tax credits and permanent differences. Our tax credits are predominantly due to the energy efficiency of our homes, with credits valued between $2,000 and $5,000 per single family home. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the tax benefit arising from our pre-tax loss, in part driven by the $10.3 million inventory impairment and abandonment charges, combined with energy efficiency tax credits, resulted in a total tax benefit that was similar in size to our pre-tax loss from continuing operations, yielding an effective tax rate of 87.1%. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law. The OBBBA repeals many of the energy efficiency credits enacted under the Inflation Reduction Act, including our ability to claim energy efficient new home tax credits for homes that close after June 30, 2026. While this change does not impact our fiscal 2025 effective tax rate and deferred tax balances, we are evaluating the full impact of OBBBA on our future tax provision and financial results.

Reconciliation of Net Income (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)

Current wording

Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP)

Previous wording

Reconciliation of net income (GAAP measure) to Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP measure) is provided for each period discussed below. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors in understanding and comparing core operating results and underlying business trends by eliminating many of the differences in companies' respective capitalization, tax position, level of impairments, and other non-recurring items. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
