Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
- ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization and Description of the Business
LGI Homes, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, “we,” “us,” or “our”), is headquartered in The Woodlands, Texas. We engage in the development of communities and the design, construction and sale of new homes in markets in Texas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, New Mexico, Colorado, North Carolina, South Carolina, Washington, Tennessee, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Alabama, California, Oregon, Nevada, West Virginia, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Utah.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for the fair presentation of our results for the interim periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of March 31, 2025, and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and these differences could have a significant impact on the financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This amendment modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, (2) the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) (disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes) as well as individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid is equal to or greater than 5 percent of total income taxes paid net of refunds, (3) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (disaggregated between domestic and foreign) and (4) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (disaggregated by federal, state and foreign). The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, while retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires disclosure of certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments in this update are to be applied on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our disclosures.
- REAL ESTATE INVENTORY
Our real estate inventory consists of the following (in thousands):
| March 31, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Land, land under development and finished lots | $2,405,163 | $2,287,352 |
| Information centers | 60,157 | 57,622 |
| Homes in progress | 367,602 | 325,579 |
| Completed homes | 691,656 | 680,160 |
| Total owned inventory | 3,524,578 | 3,350,713 |
| Real estate not owned | 28,565 | 37,140 |
| Total real estate inventory | $3,553,143 | $3,387,853 |
Our real estate not owned relates to 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, while limiting risk and minimizing the use of funds from our available cash or other financing sources.
We build and lease a number of single-family homes in select, existing communities. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we transferred $13.4 million and $3.9 million, respectively, of home assets from real estate inventory to rental properties within property and equipment, net. We are lessors of the homes representing these home assets.
- ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER LIABILITIES
Accrued and other liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):
| March 31, | December 31, | |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Real estate inventory development and construction payable | $55,437 | $48,019 |
| Taxes payable | 5,055 | 43,076 |
| Land banking financing arrangements | 28,565 | 37,140 |
| Accrued compensation, bonuses and benefits | 7,769 | 18,653 |

| Other | 10,556 | 11,713 |
| Total accrued expenses and other liabilities | $169,674 | $207,317 |
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 year.
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):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Warranty reserves, beginning of period | $16,100 | $13,600 |
| Warranty provision | 1,594 | 1,790 |
| Warranty expenditures | (1,194) | (1,390) |
| Warranty reserves, end of period | $16,500 | $14,000 |
- NOTES PAYABLE
Revolving Credit Agreement
On October 9, 2024, we entered into an amendment to 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 through October 9, 2024, the “2024 Credit Agreement”). The 2024 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 2024 Credit Agreement. The 2024 Credit Agreement matures on April 28, 2028 with respect to $1.085 billion, or 90.0%, of the $1.205 billion of commitments thereunder and on April 28, 2025 with respect to 10.0% of the commitments thereunder.
Before each anniversary of the 2024 Credit Agreement, we may request a one-year extension of its maturity date. The 2024 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 2024 Credit Agreement, together with the outstanding principal balance of our 8.750% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Senior Notes”), our 4.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Senior Notes”) and our 7.000% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “2032 Senior Notes”), may not exceed the borrowing base under the 2024 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 2024 Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2025, the borrowing base under the 2024 Credit Agreement was $2.0 billion, of which the maximum available to borrow was $2.0 billion. As of March 31, 2025, borrowings under the 2024 Credit Agreement and the outstanding principal amount of the 2028 Senior Notes, the 2029 Senior Notes and the 2032 Senior Notes totaled approximately $1.6 billion, $24.5 million of letters of credit were outstanding and $302.4 million was available to borrow under the 2024 Credit Agreement.
Borrowings under the 2024 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 March 31, 2025, the Applicable Margin was 1.85%, and SOFR was 4.32%, subject to the 0.50% SOFR floor as included in the 2024 Credit Agreement.
The 2024 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 2024 Credit Agreement contains various covenants that, among other restrictions, limit the amount of our additional debt and our ability to make certain investments. At March 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all of the covenants contained in the 2024 Credit Agreement.
On April 28, 2025, we entered into a Sixth Amendment to Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with several financial institutions, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Sixth Amendment”), which amended the 2024 Credit Agreement (as so amended by the Sixth Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). The Sixth Amendment, among other things, (a) extended the maturity of the commitments of certain lenders under the Credit Agreement to April 28, 2029, (b) added certain financial institutions as issuers of letters of credit and (c) reset the tangible net worth financial covenant for the period from and after the date of the Sixth Amendment. The Credit Agreement matures on April 28, 2029 with respect to $972.5 million, or 82.2%, of the $1.1825 billion of commitments thereunder and on April 28, 2028 with respect to 17.8% of the commitments thereunder. The Credit Agreement otherwise has substantially similar terms and provisions to the 2024 Credit Agreement.

Capitalized Interest
Interest activity, including other financing costs, for notes payable and financing arrangements for the periods presented is as follows (in thousands):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Interest incurred | $29,924 | $29,363 |

Included in interest incurred was amortization of deferred financing costs and applicable discounts for notes payable and financing arrangements of $2.7 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
- 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 March 31, 2025, our effective tax rate of 30.2% 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, and the compensation cost in excess of deductions for share-based payments.
Income taxes paid were $38.6 million and $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
- 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 months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased 41,685 shares of our common stock for $3.1 million to be held as treasury stock and 89,227 shares of our common stock for $10.0 million to be held as treasury stock, respectively. A total of 3,289,024 shares of our common stock has been repurchased since our stock repurchase program commenced. As of March 31, 2025, we may purchase up to $177.7 million of shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program.
- EARNINGS PER SHARE
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Numerator (in thousands): | ||
| Net income (Numerator for basic and dilutive earnings per share) | $3,994 | $17,053 |
| Denominator: | ||
| Basic weighted average shares outstanding | 23,396,470 | 23,578,576 |

| Diluted weighted average shares outstanding | 23,466,746 | 23,675,353 |
| Basic earnings per share | $0.17 | $0.72 |
| Diluted earnings per share | $0.17 | $0.72 |
| Antidilutive non-vested restricted stock units excluded from calculation of diluted earnings per share | 50,771 | 34,252 |
- STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Non-performance Based Restricted Stock Units
The following table summarizes the activity of our time-vested restricted stock units (“RSUs”):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| Shares | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | |
| Beginning balance | 194,953 | $106.60 |
| Granted | 70,636 | $73.19 |
| Vested | (28,045) | $118.80 |
| Forfeited | (1,560) | $102.75 |
| Ending balance | 235,984 | $95.18 |
We recognized $1.7 million and $1.4 million of stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, 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 March 31, 2025, we had unrecognized compensation cost of $13.6 million related to unvested RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.3 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 three months ended March 31, 2025:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| Target Shares | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | |
| Beginning balance | 196,770 | $111.38 |
| Granted | 116,227 | $75.09 |
| Forfeited | (60,272) | $118.80 |
| Vested | — | $— |
| Ending balance | 252,725 | $92.92 |
At March 31, 2025, management estimates that the recipients will receive approximately 86.3% of the weighted average target number of PSUs outstanding at the end of the applicable three-year performance cycle based on projected performance compared to the target performance metrics. PSUs granted in 2022 were forfeited based on actual results as compared to the target performance metrics. We recognized $0.6 million and $2.0 million of total stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding PSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. At March 31, 2025, we had unrecognized compensation cost of $14.0 million, based on the probable amount, related to unvested PSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years. PSUs granted in 2022, 2023 and 2024 are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS as they are subject to unsatisfied performance conditions.
- 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 March 31, 2025, the 2024 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 2028 Senior Notes, the 2029 Senior Notes and the 2032 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 March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):
| March 31, 2025 · December 31, 2024 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fair Value Hierarchy | Carrying Value | Estimated Fair Value | Carrying Value | Estimated Fair Value | |
| 2028 Senior Notes (1) | Level 2 | $400,000 | $435,252 | $400,000 | $436,783 |
| 2029 Senior Notes (1) | Level 2 | $300,000 | $276,314 | $300,000 | $274,692 |
| 2032 Senior Notes (1) | Level 2 | $400,000 | $421,643 | $400,000 | $421,247 |

- 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 homebuilding 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):
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Land deposits and option payments (1) | $24,930 | $29,040 |
| Commitments under the land purchase contracts if the purchases are consummated (1) | $561,605 | $653,861 |
| Lots under land purchase contracts (1) | 14,031 | 17,582 |
(1)Includes land banking financing arrangements, see Note 2 and Note 3 for more details regarding real estate not owned.
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, approximately $8.0 million and $10.4 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 $5.6 million as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Lease obligations, as included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, were $6.1 million as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Operating lease cost, as included in general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations, was $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for operating leases was $0.6 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, the weighted-average discount rate was 5.9% and our weighted-average remaining life was 2.1 years. We do not have any significant lease contracts that have not yet commenced at March 31, 2025.
