3. ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER LIABILITIES

Accrued and other liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):

Land Banking Financing Arrangements

We have land banking financing arrangements with a third-party land banker to repurchase land that we sold to the land banker as a method of acquiring finished lots in staged takedowns. Principal payments on these financing arrangements will generally coincide with the repurchase of lot takedowns from the land banker. We expect to complete the repurchase of all lots via takedowns associated with these transactions over the course of approximatelyone tothree years.

Inventory Related Obligations

We own lots in certain communities in Florida and Texas that have Community Development Districts or similar utility and infrastructure development special assessment programs that allocate a fixed amount of debt service associated with development activities to each lot. This obligation for infrastructure development is attached to the land, which is typically payable over a 30-year period and is ultimately assumed by the homebuyer when home sales are closed. The obligations assumed by the homebuyer represent a non-cash cost of the lots.

Estimated Warranty Reserve

We generally provide homebuyers with aone-year warranty on the house and a limited warranty for major defects in structural elements, such as framing components and foundation systems, typically ranging fromsix toten years depending on the applicable state.

Changes to our warranty accrual are as follows (in thousands):

4. NOTES PAYABLE

Revolving Credit Agreement

On December 5, 2023, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with several financial institutions, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Fourth Amendment”), which amended the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 28, 2021, with several financial institutions, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (as amended to date, including the Fourth Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a $1.205 billion revolving credit facility, which can be increased at the request of the Company by up to $95.0 million, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement matures on April 28, 2028 with respect to $960.0 million, or 79.7%, of the $1.205 billion of commitments thereunder and on April 28, 2025 with respect to 20.3% of the commitments thereunder.

Before each anniversary of the Credit Agreement, we may request a one-year extension of its maturity date. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by, among others, each of our subsidiaries that have gross assets of at least $0.5 million, other than subsidiaries whose sole purpose is to own and operate single-family rental homes.

The borrowings and letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement, together with the outstanding principal balance of our 4.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Senior Notes”) and our 8.750% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Senior Notes”), may not exceed the borrowing base under the Credit Agreement. The borrowing base primarily consists of a percentage of commercial land, land held for development, lots under development and finished lots held by the Company and its subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations under the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2024, the borrowing base under the Credit Agreement was $1.9 billion, and borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the outstanding principal amount of the 2029 Senior Notes and the 2028 Senior Notes totaled approximately $1.5 billion, $29.5 million of letters of credit were outstanding and $354.8 million was available to borrow under the Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, payable monthly in arrears, at the Company’s option, at either (1) the Adjusted Term SOFR (defined as a term SOFR that is based on a fixed 1, 3 or 6 month interest period, as selected by the Company, plus a 10,15 or 25 basis point adjustment, respectively), which rate is subject to a 50 basis point floor, plus an applicable margin ranging from 145 basis points to 210 basis points (the “Applicable Margin”) based on the Company’s leverage ratio as determined in accordance with a pricing grid, or (2) the Base Rate (defined as a term SOFR that is based on a daily variable 1 month interest period plus a 10 basis point adjustment), subject to a 50 basis point floor, plus the Applicable Margin. At June 30, 2024, the Applicable Margin was 1.85%, and SOFR was 5.34%, subject to the 0.50% SOFR floor as included in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains various financial covenants, including a minimum tangible net worth, a leverage ratio, a minimum liquidity amount and an EBITDA to interest expense ratio. The Credit Agreement contains various covenants that, among other restrictions, limit the amount of our additional debt and our ability to make certain investments. At June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all of the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement.

Senior Notes Offering

On November 21, 2023, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Senior Notes in an offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the

United States pursuant to Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the Securities Act. Interest on the 2028 Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 8.750% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The 2028 Senior Notes mature on December 15, 2028. The terms of the 2028 Senior Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of July 6, 2018, and Fourth Supplemental Indenture thereto, dated as of November 21, 2023, as may be supplemented from time to time, among us, our subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement and Regions Bank, as trustee.

On June 28, 2021, we issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Senior Notes in an offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S. Interest on the 2029 Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 4.000% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The 2029 Senior Notes mature on July 15, 2029. The terms of the 2029 Senior Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of July 6, 2018, and Third Supplemental Indenture thereto, dated as of June 28, 2021, as may be supplemented from time to time, among us, our subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under the Credit Agreement and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee.

Notes payable consist of the following (in thousands):

Capitalized Interest

Interest activity, including other financing costs, for notes payable and financing arrangements for the periods presented is as follows (in thousands):

Included in interest incurred was amortization of deferred financing costs and applicable discounts for notes payable and financing arrangements of $4.4 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $10.0 million and $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

5. INCOME TAXES

We file U.S. and state income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The statute of limitations with regards to our federal income tax filings is three years. The statute of limitations for our state tax jurisdictions is three to four years depending on the jurisdiction. In the normal course of business, we are subject to tax audits in various jurisdictions, and such jurisdictions may assess additional income taxes. We do not expect the outcome of any audit to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements; however, audit outcomes and the timing of audit adjustments are subject to significant uncertainty.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate of 23.8% is higher than the Federal statutory rate primarily as a result of an increase in the rate for state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, the compensation cost in excess of deductions for share-based payments, and the compensation limitation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, partially offset by a decrease in the rate for the federal energy efficient homes tax credits.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate of 24.4% is higher than the Federal statutory rate primarily as a result of an increase in the rate for state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, the compensation cost in excess of deductions for share-based payments, and the compensation limitation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, partially offset by a decrease in the rate for the federal energy efficient homes tax credits.

Income taxes paid were $16.2 million and $59.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Income taxes paid were $28.3 million and $59.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

6. EQUITY

Stock Repurchase Program

In February 2022, our Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a $200.0 million increase to our previously authorized stock repurchase program, pursuant to which we may purchase up to $550.0 million of shares of our common stock through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise in accordance with applicable laws. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased 83,763 shares of our common stock for $8.0 million and 172,990 shares of our common stock for $18.0 million, respectively, to be held as treasury stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. A total of 3,112,462 shares of our common stock has been repurchased since our stock repurchase program commenced. As of June 30, 2024, we may purchase up to $193.5 million of shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program. The timing, amount and other terms and conditions of any repurchases of shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program will be determined by our management at its discretion based on a variety of factors, including the market price of our common stock, corporate considerations, general market and economic conditions and legal requirements. Our stock repurchase program may be modified, discontinued or suspended at any time.

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Non-performance Based Restricted Stock Units

The following table summarizes the activity of our time-vested restricted stock units (“RSUs”):

We recognized $1.4 million and $1.3 million of stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We recognized $2.8 million and $2.4 million of stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Generally, the RSUs cliff vest on the third anniversary of the grant date and can only be settled in shares of our common stock. At June 30, 2024, we had unrecognized compensation cost of $9.8 million related to unvested RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years.

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

The Compensation Committee of the Board has granted awards of performance-based RSUs (“PSUs”) under the Amended and Restated LGI Homes, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan to certain members of senior management based on three-year performance cycles. The PSUs provide for shares of our common stock to be issued based on the attainment of certain performance metrics over the applicable three-year periods. The number of shares of our common stock that may be issued to the recipients for the PSUs range from 0% to 200% of the target amount depending on actual results as compared to the target performance metrics. The terms of the PSUs provide that the payouts will be capped at 100% of the target number of PSUs granted if absolute total stockholder return is negative during the performance period, regardless of EPS performance; this market condition applies for amounts recorded above target. The compensation expense associated with the PSU grants is determined using the derived grant date fair value, based on a third-party valuation analysis, and expensed over the applicable period. The PSUs vest upon the determination date for the actual results at the end of thethree-year period and require that the recipients continue to be employed by us through the determination date. The PSUs can only be settled in shares of our common stock.

The following table summarizes the activity of our PSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2024:

At June 30, 2024, management estimates that the recipients will receive approximately 100.0%,97.5% and 0.0% of the 2024, 2023 and 2022 target number of PSUs, respectively, at the end of the applicable three-year performance cycle based on projected performance compared to the target performance metrics. We recognized $1.2 million and $0.7 million of total stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding PSUs for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We recognized $3.2 million and $2.3 million of total stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding PSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The 2021 - 2023 performance period PSUs vested and issued on March 8, 2024, at 93.6% of the target number. At June 30, 2024, we had unrecognized compensation cost of $10.4 million, based on the probable amount, related to unvested PSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

PSUs granted in 2022, 2023 and 2024 are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS as they are subject to unsatisfied performance conditions.

9. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements(“ASC 820”), defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date” within an entity’s principal market, if any. The principal market is the market in which the reporting entity would sell the asset or transfer the liability with the most significant volume and level of activity, regardless of whether it is the market in which the entity will ultimately transact for a particular asset or liability or if a different market is potentially more advantageous. Accordingly, this exit price concept may result in a fair value that differs from the transaction price or market price of the asset or liability.

ASC 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP, expands disclosures about fair value measurements and establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are summarized as follows:

Level 1 - Fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Fair value is determined using significant observable inputs, generally either quoted prices in active markets for

similar assets or liabilities, or quoted prices in markets that are not active.

Level 3 - Fair value is determined using one or more significant inputs that are unobservable in active markets at the

measurement date, such as a pricing model, discounted cash flow or similar technique.

We utilize fair value measurements to account for certain items and account balances within our consolidated financial statements. Fair value measurements may also be utilized on a nonrecurring basis, such as for the impairment of long-lived assets. The fair value of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments. As of June 30, 2024, the Credit Agreement’s carrying value approximates market value since it has a floating interest rate, which increases or decreases with market interest rates and our leverage ratio.

In order to determine the fair value of each of the 2029 Senior Notes and the 2028 Senior Notes, the future contractual cash flows are discounted at our estimate of current market rates of interest, which were determined based upon the average interest rates of similar senior notes within the homebuilding industry (Level 2 measurement).

The following table below shows the level and measurement of liabilities at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands):

(1)See Note 4 for more details regarding the offerings of the 2029 Senior Notes and the 2028 Senior Notes.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contingencies

In the ordinary course of doing business, we are subject to claims or proceedings from time to time relating to the purchase, development and sale of real estate and homes and other aspects of our operations. Management believes that these claims include usual obligations incurred by real estate developers and residential home builders in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, these matters will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We have provided unsecured environmental indemnities to certain lenders and other counterparties. In each case, we have performed due diligence on the potential environmental risks including obtaining an independent environmental review from outside environmental consultants. These indemnities obligate us to reimburse the guaranteed parties for damages related to environmental matters. There is no term or damage limitation on these indemnities; however, if an environmental matter arises, we may have recourse against other previous owners. In the ordinary course of doing business, we are subject to regulatory proceedings from time to time related to environmental and other matters. In the opinion of management, these matters will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Land Deposits

We have land purchase contracts, generally through cash deposits, for the right to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. We do not have title to the property, and obligations with respect to the land purchase contracts are generally limited to the forfeiture of the related nonrefundable cash deposits. The following is a summary of our land purchase deposits included in pre-acquisition costs and deposits (in thousands, except for lot count):

(1)Includes land banking financing arrangements, see Note 2 and Note 3 for more details regarding real estate not owned.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, approximately $11.7 million and $11.4 million, respectively, of the land deposits are related to purchase contracts to deliver finished lots that are refundable under certain circumstances, such as feasibility or specific performance, and secured by mortgages or letters of credit or guaranteed by the seller or its affiliates.

Lease Obligations

We recognize lease obligations and associated right-of-use (“ROU”) assets for our existing non-cancelable leases. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. We have non-cancelable operating leases primarily associated with our corporate and regional office facilities. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, subject to any changes in the lease or expectations regarding the terms. Variable lease costs such as common area costs and property taxes are expensed as incurred. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The lease term may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. ROU assets, as included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets, were $4.5 million and $4.6 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Lease obligations, as included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, were $4.7 million and $4.9 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Operating lease cost, as included in general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations, was $0.6 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Operating lease cost, as included in general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations, was $1.2 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for operating leases during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $0.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the weighted-average discount rate was 5.9% and our weighted-average remaining life was 2.5 years. We do not have any significant lease contracts that have not yet commenced at June 30, 2024.

The table below shows the future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases at June 30, 2024 (in thousands):

Bonding and Letters of Credit

We have outstanding letters of credit and performance and surety bonds totaling $371.2 million (including $29.5 million of letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement) and $357.0 million (including $28.1 million of letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement) at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, related to our obligations for site improvements at various projects. Management does not believe that draws upon the letters of credit, surety bonds or financial guarantees if any, will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Investment in Unconsolidated Entities

As of June 30, 2024, we had one equity-method land joint venture and two additional joint ventures engaged in mortgage and insurance activities that primarily provide services to our homebuyers. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have a total of $23.5 million and $21.5 million, respectively, within other assets on the balance sheet relating to our investment in joint ventures associated with our operations. Contributions into the unconsolidated entities are for the use of investing in certain real estate transactions and residential mortgage services, respectively. Income associated with our investment in unconsolidated entities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $3.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively. Income associated with our investment in unconsolidated entities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.9 million and $5.3 million, respectively.

11. REVENUES

Home Sales Revenues

We generate revenues primarily by delivering move-in ready entry-level and move-up spec homes sold under our LGI Homes brand and our move-up and luxury series spec homes sold under our Terrata Homes brand.

The following table presents our home sales revenues disaggregated by revenue stream (in thousands):

Our home sales revenues are disaggregated by geography, based on our determined reportable segments. See Note 12 for tabular presentation of this information.

12. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We operate one principal homebuilding business that is organized and reports by division. We have seven operating segments (our Central, Midwest, Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, Northwest, West, and Florida divisions) that we aggregate into five qualifying reportable segments at June 30, 2024: our Central, Southeast, Northwest, West, and Florida divisions. These segments reflect the way the Company evaluates its business performance and manages its operations.

In accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-makers (“CODMs”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The CODMs primarily evaluate performance based on the number of homes closed, gross margin and average sales price per home closed.

In determining the most appropriate reportable segments, we consider operating segments’ economic and other characteristics, including home floor plans, average selling prices, gross margin percentage, geographical proximity, production construction processes, suppliers, subcontractors, regulatory environments, customer type and underlying demand and supply. Each operating segment follows the same accounting policies and is managed by our management team. We haveno inter-segment sales, as all sales are to external customers. Operating results for each segment may not be indicative of the results for such segment had it been an independent, stand-alone entity for the periods presented.

Financial information relating to our reportable segments is as follows (in thousands):

(1)The Corporate balance consists of general and administration unallocated costs for various shared service functions offset by non-strategic other income, as well as our warranty reserve. Actual warranty expenses are reflected within the reportable segments.

(1)The Corporate balance consists primarily of cash and investments in unconsolidated entities.
