FROM OUR EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Dear Fellow Stockholders:

2024 was another strong year for Century Communities. Despite the challenges posed by fluctuating mortgage rates, we successfully navigated these obstacles, achieving significant growth across nearly all metrics. This resulted in increased revenues, gross margins, earnings, and book value per share.

We expanded our community count by 28% year-over-year, reaching a record 322 communities. Our home deliveries rose by 15% to a record 11,007 homes, driving a 19% increase in total revenues to $4.4 billion. We achieved a net income of $334 million, marking our 22nd consecutive year of profitability and a 29% increase from the previous year. Our book value per share grew by 13% to a record $84.65 as of December 31, 2024.

Throughout 2024, we returned cash to our stockholders while maintaining a robust balance sheet. In the first quarter, our Board of Directors announced a 13% increase in our quarterly cash dividend to $0.26 per share, further increased by 12% to $0.29 per share in early 2025. We repurchased 1.0 million shares of our common stock, over 3% of shares outstanding at the start of the year, for $83.8 million. We concluded the year with a homebuilding debt to capital ratio of 30.3% and a net homebuilding debt to net capital ratio of 27.4%. Additionally, in the fourth quarter, we entered into a new credit agreement, increasing our senior unsecured credit facility to $900.0 million and extending its maturity to November 2028.

We set numerous records in 2024 and are poised to further increase our deliveries in 2025 and 2026, providing our homebuyers with a Home for Every Dream®. We continue to empower homebuyers with innovative tools and resources, making the process of finding, financing, and purchasing their dream home easier than ever.

Together with the Board of Directors and the management team at Century Communities, we are pleased to invite you to our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which will be held at the Hyatt Regency Denver Tech Center located at 7800 East Tufts Avenue, Denver, Colorado 80237, at 1:00 p.m. local time, on Wednesday, May 7, 2025.

The accompanying Notice of 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and proxy statement describe these matters in more detail. We urge you to read this information carefully.
