Current report

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, our West segment generated income before income tax expense of $9.9 million, representing a decrease of 53.5% compared to the prior year period, which was primarily driven by a decrease in revenue and homebuilding gross margin.

The decrease in the number of homes delivered was primarily driven by slower absorption rates and the average sales price per home decrease was driven by increased use of incentives. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, homebuilding gross margin decreased from the prior year period, due primarily to increased use of incentives as compared to the prior year period.

Previous report

Net cash provided by investing activities was $30.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $277.7 million during the prior year period.

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 7,357 homes delivered during the first nine months of 2025, approximately 94% of homes delivered had purchase prices below the Federal Housing Administration-insured mortgage limits and approximately 99% of homes delivered were built as move-in ready homes.

Previous 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 first nine months of 2025, as net new home contracts (new home contracts net of cancellations) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased 6.9% and 7.1%, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods. 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. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, cycle times remained approximately in the four-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 ongoing affordability pressures for homebuyers. Against this backdrop, including volatility in fuel and transportation prices related to the global conflict in the Middle East, we experienced softened demand during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as net new home contracts (new home contracts net of cancellations) decreased 11.6% compared to the prior year period. Still, there remains an underlying need for affordable new homes, supported by solid demographic trends and an ongoing undersupply of homes. In response to market conditions, 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. Further, during the first quarter of 2026, we experienced continued acceptance to adjustable-rate mortgages among our homebuyers. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, cycle times remained 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, and we 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, market and geopolitical conditions remain uncertain, in particular with respect to inflation; the impact of potential future increases or decreases to the U.S. Federal funds interest rate by the U.S. 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 and actions will impact the U.S. economy; the effect of significant new tariffs and/or duties; 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; the possibility of an economic recession; the current U.S. governmental shutdown; and other factors, including those described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. 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, consumer confidence 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.

Certain tariffs and other measures implemented during 2025 have impacted trade throughout various sectors. 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 three months ended September 30, 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.

Current wording

Recent disruptions to energy markets related to geopolitical developments in the Middle East have increased fuel and transportation prices, and certain tariffs that became effective in late 2025 relate to various imported products used in the homebuilding industry, including cabinets, lumber, and certain other wood products. As of March 31, 2026, 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. Mortgage rates remained elevated during the quarter and are influenced by a range of market factors, and we cannot provide any assurance as to the impact of future market or policy developments on mortgage rates or our current or future business. Further, federal policymakers have engaged with industry participants on housing affordability and supply issues, though the timing and impact of any resulting legislative or policy actions remain uncertain and are not expected to materially affect housing conditions in the near term. 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.

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. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, our Financial Services segment generated income before income tax expense of $3.0 million and $11.6 million, respectively, representing a decrease of 2.7% and 38.4% from the respective prior year periods. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the number of mortgages originated decreased 13.7% and 6.3%, respectively, and the number of loans sold to third parties decreased 13.6% and 2.8%, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods. The decrease in income before income tax expense for the three-month comparison was primarily driven by lower margins on mortgages originated during the period and partially offset by fair value adjustments related to our mortgage servicing rights portfolio. The decrease in income before income tax expense for the nine-month comparison was primarily driven by lower margins on mortgages originated during the period and fair value adjustments related to our mortgage loans held for investment, and was partially offset by the benefit of a sale of mortgage servicing rights during the second quarter of 2025.
