Current report
In October 2025, certain new tariffs took effect related to various imported products used in the homebuilding industry, including cabinets, lumber, and certain other wood products. As of the date of the filing of this report, we have not experienced significant cost increases or supply chain disruptions for raw materials; however, we could experience increases in the costs of materials utilized for the construction of our homes and/or supply chain disruptions that, in turn, would impact our business and our consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods. Additionally, during the latter half of 2025, the U.S. Federal Reserve reduced the U.S. Federal funds interest rate, and we cannot provide any assurance as to the impact of any future potential changes to the U.S. Federal funds interest rate on mortgage rates or our current or future business. The potential extent and effect of these and other factors on our business is highly uncertain and outside our control, and our past performance may not be indicative of our future results.

Century Living
Current report
Our Century Living operations are engaged in the development, construction, management, and sales of multi-family rental properties, currently all located in Colorado. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had two multi-family rental properties, one of which was currently available for leasing. These two projects represent over 750 total multi-family units, including 327 under active construction and 425 completed units, of which 307 units were leased as of December 31, 2025.
Current report
During the year ended December 31, 2025, our Century Living segment generated $97.2 million in multi-family sales revenue and $4.9 million in income before income tax expense, which included the sale of one multi-family rental property comprised of 300 units. During the first quarter of 2025, our strategy evolved for our Century Living multi-family rental properties to be predominantly focused on the disposition of the assets shortly after lease stabilization, and accordingly, we have determined that these multi-family rental operations have become part of our ordinary activities, and revenue is recognized as multi-family sales revenue on our consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2024, our Century Living segment generated $19.4 million in income before income tax expense, which included the sale of one multi-family rental property, reflected in other income (expense), net on our consolidated statements of operations.
Current report
On July 4, 2025, H.R.1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, was signed into law, which disallows Section 45L tax credits for new energy-efficient homes delivered after June 30, 2026. As a result, our income tax expense and effective tax rate for 2026 will not reflect a benefit from such tax credits as to homes delivered after June 30, 2026. We have evaluated other elements of the legislation and it did not have a material impact on our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Current report
During the year ended December 31, 2025, our average monthly absorption rates decreased by 15.6% to 2.7 per month as compared to 2024, primarily driven by decreased demand during 2025 amidst homebuilding market conditions impacted by elevated mortgage rates, macro-economic and geopolitical uncertainty, and broader concerns about affordability by homebuyers.

6.750% Senior Notes Due 2027
Previous report
In May 2019, we completed a private offering of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s Initial 6.750% Senior Notes due 2027 (which we refer to as the “Initial Notes due 2027”) in reliance on Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. The Initial Notes due 2027 were issued under the Indenture, dated as of May 23, 2019, among the Company, our subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (which we refer to as the “May 2019 Indenture,” as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time). The Initial Notes due 2027 were issued at 100% of their principal amount and we received net proceeds of $493.9 million. In connection with this issuance, we deferred $6.1 million of issuance costs, which is presented in the notes payable line item of the consolidated balance sheet. In February 2020, we completed an offer to exchange approximately $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our Initial Notes due 2027, which are registered under the Securities Act (which we refer to as the “Exchange Notes due 2027”), for an equivalent amount of the Initial Notes due 2027 that were tendered and accepted for exchange. The terms of the Exchange Notes due 2027 are identical in all material respects to the Initial Notes due 2027, except that the Exchange Notes due 2027 are registered under the Securities Act and the transfer restrictions, registration rights, and additional interest provisions that are applicable to the Initial Notes due 2027 do not apply to the Exchange Notes due 2027.
Previous report
The Initial Notes due 2027 and Exchange Notes due 2027 (which we refer to collectively, as the “Existing Notes due 2027”) will be treated as a single series of notes under the May 2019 Indenture, and will vote as a single class of notes for all matters submitted to a vote of holders under the May 2019 Indenture. The Existing Notes due 2027 are unsecured senior obligations which are guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by certain of our current and future subsidiaries. The May 2019 Indenture governing the Existing Notes due 2027 contains certain restrictive covenants on issuing future secured debt and other transactions. The aggregate principal balance of the Existing Notes due 2027 is due June 2027, with interest only payments due semi-annually in June and December of each year, which began on December 1, 2019. As of December 31, 2024, the aggregate obligation, inclusive of unamortized financing costs on the Existing Notes due 2027, was $498.0 million.

While we offer homes that appeal to a broad range of entry-level, move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, our offerings are heavily weighted towards providing affordable housing options in each of our homebuyer segments. Additionally, we prefer building move-in-ready homes over built-to-order homes, which we believe allows for a faster construction process, advantageous pricing with subcontractors, and shortened time period from home sale to home delivery, thus allowing our customers greater certainty on their financing and allowing us to more appropriately price the homes and deploy our capital. Of the 11,007 homes delivered during the year ended December 31, 2024, approximately 93% of our deliveries were made to entry-level homebuyers that were below the Federal Housing Administration-insured mortgage limits and approximately 99% of homes delivered were built as move-in ready homes.

While the homebuilding industry has continued to be impacted by volatile mortgage rates, current housing market conditions demonstrate strong underlying demand for affordable new homes, supported by solid demographic trends. We experienced solid demand during the year ended December 31, 2024, as net new home contracts (new home contracts net of cancellations) for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 20.9% compared to the prior year. We have continued to provide, when necessary, incentive offerings across our communities, including discounts on base home prices, lot premiums, options and upgrades, and financing incentives, including interest rate buydowns. During the year ended December 31, 2024, cycle times remained in the four- to five-month timeframe.
Current wording
Market conditions in the homebuilding industry have continued to be impacted by elevated mortgage rates, macro-economic and geopolitical uncertainty, and broader concerns about affordability by homebuyers. Amidst these market conditions, we experienced a slowing in demand during the year ended December 31, 2025, as net new home contracts (new home contracts net of cancellations) for the year ended 2025 decreased 3.3%, respectively, as compared to the prior year. Still, there remains an underlying need for affordable new homes, supported by solid demographic trends, and we have continued to provide, when necessary, incentive offerings across our communities, including discounts on base home prices, lot premiums, options and upgrades, and financing incentives, including interest rate buydowns and closing cost concessions. In the latter half of 2025, we have also experienced increased acceptance to adjustable-rate mortgages among our homebuyers. During the year ended December 31, 2025, cycle times were in the approximately three- to four-month timeframe.

We anticipate the homebuilding markets in each of our operating segments will continue to be tied to both the macro-economic environment and the local economy, andwe expect our operating strategy will continue to adapt to market changes, though we cannot provide any assurance that our strategies will remain consistent or continue to be successful. We believe future demand for our homes remains uncertain as future economic and market conditions remain uncertain, in particular with respect to inflation; the impact of potential future increases or decreases to the federal funds interest rate by the Federal Reserve; interest rates; availability and cost of mortgage loans to homebuyers; financial, credit and mortgage markets; the extent to which and how long government monetary directives, actions, and economic relief efforts will impact the U.S. economy; consumer confidence; wage growth; household formations; levels of new and existing homes for sale; prevailing home and rental prices; availability and cost of land, labor and construction materials; demographic trends; housing demand; and other factors, including those described elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Specifically, changes in mortgage interest rates impact the costs of owning a home and affect the purchasing power of our customers and could impact homebuyer confidence. Changes in demand for our homes or cancellations due to mortgage interest rates or otherwise affect our operating results in future periods, including our net sales, home deliveries, gross margin, origination volume of and revenues from our Financial Services segment, and net income. As a result, our past performance may not be indicative of our future results.

We believe we are well-positioned to benefit from the ongoing shortage of both new and resale homes available for purchase in our key markets and the favorable demographics that support the need for new affordable housing. We believe our operations are prepared to withstand volatility in future market conditions as a result of our product offerings which both span the home buying segment and focus on affordable price points, and our current and future inventories of attractive land positions. We have continued to focus on maintaining an appropriate balance of home and land inventories in relation to anticipated future demand, as well as prudent leverage, and, as a result, we believe we are well positioned to continue to execute on our strategy to optimize stockholder returns.

Our Financial Services segment originates mortgages for primarily our homebuyers, and as such, the volume of loans originated typically correlates to our number of homes delivered. Fluctuations in financial services income before income tax may occur because some components of revenue fluctuate differently than loan volumes, and some expenses are not directly related to mortgage loan volume or to changes in the amount of revenue earned. Our Financial Services segment generated income before income tax expense of $26.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, a 15.4% decrease over the prior year. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the number of mortgages originated increased 29.9% as compared to the prior year, which benefited from increased capture rates, and the number of loans sold to third parties increased 33.4% as compared to prior year period.

Previous wording
During the year ended December 31, 2024, our Corporate segment generated a loss of $127.9 million, as compared to a loss of $134.0 million during 2023. The decrease in loss was primarily due to the sale ofone multi-family rental property, resulting in a $23.3 million gain on sale reflected in other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations. This gain was offset by$9.9 million impairment charge related to other investments during year ended December 31, 2024, as well as a reduction in interest income as compared to the prior year.
Current wording
During the year ended December 31, 2025, our Corporate segment generated a loss of $126.5 million, as compared to a loss of $147.3 million during 2024.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, our adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage excluding inventory impairment, interest in cost of home sales revenues, and purchase price accounting for acquired work in process inventory was 23.3% as compared to 22.5% for 2023. We believe the above information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that inventory impairment (if applicable), indebtedness, and acquisitions (if applicable) have on our homebuilding gross margin and allows for comparability of our homebuilding gross margins to previous periods and our competitors.

Previous wording
Our selling, general and administrative expense increased $69.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in internal and external commission expense associated with the increase in home sales revenue and increased compensation and other costs due to increased active community count, and partially offset by decreased stock compensation expense. As a percentage of home sales revenue, our selling, general and administrative expense decreased 40 basis points during the year ended December 31, 2024, driven primarily by increased revenue on a partially fixed cost base.
Current wording
Our selling, general and administrative expense decreased $11.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreased compensation costs, including adjustments in stock-based compensation expense to reflect a decreased estimate in the number of shares which will ultimately vest and be issued upon settlement of certain performance share unit awards. The decrease was partially offset by increased advertising costs during 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2025, our selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of home sales revenue increased 90 basis points driven primarily by decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base.

Total assets increased by $393.1 million, or 9.5%, to $4.5 billion at December 31, 2024, as compared to $4.1 billion at December 31, 2023, primarilyas a result of changes in our inventory balances within our homebuilding segments related to the timing of home and land development construction activities and an increase in the number of homes under construction.
Current wording
Total assets decreased by $72.6 million, or 1.6%, to $4.5 billion at December 31, 2025 as compared to December 31, 2024, primarily due to (1) changes in our inventory balances within our homebuilding segments related to the timing of home and land development construction activities, (2) changes in our Century Living multi-family rental properties inventory balances related to the timing of disposition, development, and construction activities and (3) a decrease in our Financial Services assets, including a decrease in our mortgage servicing rights due to the sale of approximately $3.0 billion of unpaid principal balance of our portfolio during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the stage in the development cycle and can differ substantially from reported earnings. Early stages of development or expansion require significant cash outlays for land acquisitions, entitlements and other approvals, and construction of model homes, roads, utilities, general landscaping and other amenities. Because these costs are a component of our inventory and not recognized in our consolidated statements of operations until a home closes, we incur significant cash outlays prior to our recognition of earnings. In the later stages of community development, cash inflows may significantly exceed earnings reported for financial statement purposes, as the cash outflow associated with home and land construction was previously incurred. From a liquidity standpoint, we continue to acquire and develop lots in our markets when they meet our current investment criteria.

As of December 31, 2024, we had outstanding purchase contracts and option contracts for 44,876 lots totaling approximately $2.7 billion and we had $92.5 million of deposits for land contracts, of which $54.7 million were non-refundable cash deposits pertaining to land contracts. For contracts for which cash deposits were non-refundable, and subject to the terms of the outstanding contracts continuing to meet our investment criteria, we currently anticipate performing on the majority of our purchase and option contracts during the next 24 months. Our performance, including the timing and amount of purchase, if any, under these outstanding purchase and option contracts is subject to change and dependent on future market conditions. Our utilization of land option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into option takedown arrangements, the availability of capital to financial intermediaries to finance the development of optioned lots, general housing market conditions, and local market dynamics. Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions.
Current wording
We strive to strategically manage our lot pipeline, while selectively reducing our lot pipeline by terminating certain contracts in markets that do not meet our investment criteria, in light of current market conditions, in order to maintain a balance between the number of owned lots as compared to lots we control through option and other contracts. This balance allows us flexibility to adjust to market conditions as they develop. As of December 31, 2025, we had outstanding purchase contracts and option contracts for an aggregate of 26,116 lots totaling approximately $1.8 billion and we had an aggregate of $92.1 million of deposits for land contracts, of which $74.2 million were non-refundable cash deposits pertaining to land contracts.

We maintain general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for certain construction defects after homes have been delivered and premise operations during construction. These insurance policies are designed to protect us against a portion of the risk of loss from claims, subject to certain self-insured per occurrence and aggregate retentions, deductibles, and available policy limits. In circumstances where we have elected to retain a higher portion of the overall risk for construction defect claims in return for a lower initial premium, we reserve for the estimated self-insured retention costs that we will incur that are above our coverage limits or that are not covered by our insurance policies. The reserve is recorded on an undiscounted basis at the time revenue is recognized for each home closing. Our self-insurance liability is presented on a gross basis without consideration of insurance recoveries and amounts we have paid on behalf of and expect to recover from other parties, if any. Estimates of insurance recoveries and amounts we have paid on behalf of and expect to recover from other parties, if any, are recorded as receivables when such recoveries are considered probable.
