1. Basis of presentation
PulteGroup, Inc. is one of the largest homebuilders in the United States ("U.S."), and our common shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “PHM”. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "PulteGroup," the "Company," "we," "us," and "our" used herein refer to PulteGroup, Inc. and its subsidiaries. While our subsidiaries engage primarily in the homebuilding business, we also engage in mortgage banking operations, conducted through Pulte Mortgage LLC (“Pulte Mortgage”), and title and insurance agency operations.
The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Subsequent events
We evaluated subsequent events up until the time the financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

Revenue recognition
Home sale revenues - Home sale revenues and related profit are generally recognized when title to and possession of the home are transferred to the buyer, and our performance obligation to deliver the agreed-upon home is generally satisfied at the home closing date. Home sale contract assets consist of cash from home closings held in escrow for our benefit, typically for less than five days, which are considered deposits in-transit and classified as cash. Contract liabilities include customer deposits related to sold but undelivered homes, which totaled $512.3 million and $387.8 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Substantially all of our home sales are scheduled to close and be recorded to revenue within one year from the date of receiving a customer deposit. See Note 8 for information on warranties and related obligations.
Land sale and other revenues - We periodically elect to sell parcels of land to third parties in the event such assets no longer fit into our strategic operating plans or are zoned for commercial or other development. Land sales are generally outright sales of specified land parcels with cash consideration due on the closing date, which is generally when performance obligations are satisfied. Other revenues related to our construction services operations are generally recognized as materials are delivered and installation services are provided.
Financial Services revenues - Loan origination fees, commitment fees, and discount points are recognized upon loan origination. Expected gains and losses from the sale of residential mortgage loans and their related servicing rights are included in the measurement of interest rate lock commitments ("IRLCs") that are accounted for at fair value through Financial Services revenues at the time of commitment. Subsequent changes in the fair value of IRLCs and residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are reflected in Financial Services revenues as they occur. Interest income is accrued from the date a mortgage loan is originated until the loan is sold. Mortgage servicing fees represent fees earned for servicing loans until the loans are sold. Servicing fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and are credited to income when related mortgage payments are received.
Revenues associated with our title operations are recognized as closing services are rendered and title insurance policies are issued, both of which generally occur as each home is closed. Insurance agency commissions relate to commissions on home and other insurance policies placed with third-party carriers through various agency channels. Our performance obligations for policy renewal commissions are considered satisfied upon issuance of the initial policy. The related contract assets for estimated future renewal commissions are included in other assets and totaled $87.6 million and $82.6 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale
Substantially all of the loans originated by us are sold in the secondary mortgage market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, residential mortgage loans available-for-sale had an aggregate fair value of $549.7 million and $613.7 million, respectively, and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $562.4 million and $621.6 million, respectively. These changes in fair value were substantially offset by changes in fair value of the corresponding derivative instruments. Net gains from the sale of mortgages were $52.6 million and $59.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $87.9 million and $109.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and have been included in Financial Services revenues.
Derivative instruments and hedging activities
We are party to IRLCs with customers resulting from our mortgage origination operations. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had aggregate IRLCs of $1.7 billion and $820.2 million, respectively. Since we can terminate a loan commitment if the borrower does not comply with the terms of the contract, and some loan commitments may expire without being drawn upon, these commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
We hedge our exposure to interest rate market risk relating to residential mortgage loans available-for-sale and IRLCs using forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities, which are commitments to either purchase or sell a specified financial instrument at a specified future date for a specified price, and whole loan investor commitments, which are obligations of an investor to buy loans at a specified price within a specified time period. Forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities are the predominant derivative financial instruments we use to minimize market risk during the period from the time we extend an interest rate lock to a loan applicant until the time the loan is sold to an investor. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had unexpired forward contracts of $1.9 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, and whole loan investor commitments of $219.4

million and $270.6 million, respectively. Changes in the fair value of IRLCs and other derivative financial instruments are recognized in Financial Services revenues, and the fair values are reflected in other assets or other liabilities, as applicable.
The fair values of derivative instruments and their locations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are summarized below ($000’s omitted):

Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for unvested shares for the period (the “Denominator”). Computing diluted earnings per share is similar to computing basic earnings per share, except that the Denominator is increased to include the dilutive effects of unvested restricted share units and other potentially dilutive instruments. Anti-dilutive shares were immaterial in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Credit losses
We are exposed to credit losses primarily through our vendors and insurance carriers. We assess and monitor each counterparty’s ability to pay amounts owed by considering contractual terms and conditions, the counterparty’s financial condition, macroeconomic factors, and business strategy. Our assets exposed to credit losses consist primarily of insurance receivables, contract assets related to insurance agency commissions, accounts receivable, and vendor rebate receivables. Counterparties associated with these assets are generally highly rated. Allowances on the aforementioned assets were not material as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
New accounting pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” ("ASU 2024-03"), which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis in the notes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for us for annual periods beginning after December 31, 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2024-03 will have on our financial statement disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvement to the Accounting for Internal-use Software", which amends certain aspects of the accounting and disclosure of developed software costs. ASU 2025-06 is effective for us for annual periods beginning after December 31, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06 but do not expect that the adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

Land option agreements
We enter into land option agreements in order to procure land for the construction of homes in the future. Pursuant to these land option agreements, we generally provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. Such contracts enable us to defer acquiring portions of properties owned by third parties or unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether and when to exercise our option, which may serve to reduce our financial risks associated with long-term land holdings. Option deposits and pre-acquisition costs (such as environmental testing, surveys, engineering, and entitlement costs) are capitalized if the costs are directly identifiable with the land under option, the costs would be capitalized if we owned the land, and acquisition of the property is probable. Such costs are reflected in other assets and are reclassified to inventory upon taking title to the land. We write off deposits and pre-acquisition costs when it becomes probable that we will not go forward with the project or recover the capitalized costs. Such decisions take into consideration changes in local market conditions, the timing of required land purchases, the availability and best use of necessary incremental capital, and other factors. We record any such write-offs of deposits and pre-acquisition costs within other income, net. See Note 1.

PULTEGROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
If an entity holding the land under option is a variable interest entity ("VIE"), our deposit represents a variable interest in that entity. No VIEs required consolidation at either June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025 because we determined that we were not any VIE's primary beneficiary. Our maximum exposure to loss related to these VIEs is generally limited to our deposits and pre-acquisition costs under the land option agreements. The following provides a summary of our interests in land option agreements as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 ($000’s omitted):

3. Segment information
Our Homebuilding operations are engaged in the acquisition and development of land primarily for residential purposes within the U.S. and the construction of housing on such land. For reporting purposes, our Homebuilding operations are aggregated into six reportable segments:
| Northeast: | Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia | |||||||
| Southeast: | Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee | |||||||
| Florida: | Florida | |||||||
| Midwest: | Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio | |||||||

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
We also have a reportable segment for our Financial Services operations, which consist principally of mortgage banking, title, and insurance agency operations. The Financial Services segment operates generally in the same markets as the Homebuilding segments. Evaluation of segment performance is generally based on income before income taxes. Each reportable segment generally follows the same accounting policies described in Note 1.

(UNAUDITED)
In February 2026, we issued $800.0 million of unsecured senior notes, consisting of $400.0 million of 4.250 % senior notes scheduled to mature on March 1, 2031, and $400.0 million of 4.900 % senior notes scheduled to mature on March 1, 2036. The net proceeds from the February 2026 senior notes issuance were used to repay at maturity $251.9 million principal amount of unsecured senior notes which matured on March 1, 2026, and to redeem in full prior to maturity all $337.3 million principal amount of unsecured senior notes which were scheduled to mature in January 2027, and, in each case, to pay any premium and accrued interest in respect thereof, with the remaining net proceeds used for general corporate purposes.
Other notes payable
Other notes payable include non-recourse and limited recourse notes with third parties that totaled $37.4 million and $47.2 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These notes have maturities ranging up to four years , are secured by the applicable land positions to which they relate, and generally have no recourse to other assets. The stated interest rates on these notes range up to 9 %. We recorded $3.8 million and $13.1 million of inventory through seller financing in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively.
Revolving credit facility
We maintain a revolving credit facility with third-party lenders entered into in June 2022 (the "Original Revolving Credit Facility", and, as amended, the "Revolving Credit Facility") scheduled to mature in February 2031. The Original Revolving Credit Facility was amended and restated in February 2026 to (i) extend the maturity from June 2027 to February 2031, (ii) increase the total committed capacity from $1.25 billion to $1.75 billion, and (iii) expand the uncommitted accordion feature from $500.0 million to $750.0 million, providing for potential capacity of up to $2.5 billion, subject to customary conditions and additional lender commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for the issuance of letters of credit that reduce the available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility, up to the maximum borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be based on either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or a base rate, plus an applicable margin, as defined therein. The Revolving Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth and a maximum Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio (as each term is defined in the Revolving Credit Facility). As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all covenants and requirements of the Revolving Credit Facility. Outstanding balances under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
At June 30, 2026, we had no borrowings outstanding, $343.2 million of letters of credit issued, and $1.4 billion of remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2025, we had no borrowings outstanding, $357.1 million of letters of credit issued, and $892.9 million of remaining capacity under the Original Revolving Credit Facility.
Joint venture debt
At June 30, 2026, aggregate outstanding debt of unconsolidated joint ventures was $45.1 million.
Financial Services debt
Pulte Mortgage maintains a master repurchase agreement with third-party lenders (as amended, the "Repurchase Agreement") that matures on August 12, 2026. The maximum aggregate commitment under the Repurchase Agreement was $625.0 million at June 30, 2026, which continues until maturity. The Repurchase Agreement also contains an accordion feature that could increase the commitment by $50.0 million above its active commitment level. Borrowings under the Repurchase Agreement are secured by residential mortgage loans available-for-sale. The Repurchase Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Pulte Mortgage, including quantitative thresholds related to net worth, net income, and liquidity. At June 30, 2026, Pulte Mortgage had $477.9 million outstanding at a weighted-average interest rate of 5.42 % and $147.1 million of remaining capacity under the Repurchase Agreement. At December 31, 2025, Pulte Mortgage had $532.3 million outstanding at a weighted-average interest rate of 5.51 % and $92.7 million of remaining capacity under the Repurchase Agreement. Pulte Mortgage was in compliance with all covenants and requirements as of such dates.

5. Shareholders’ equity
In the six months ended June 30, 2026, we declared cash dividends totaling $99.5 million and repurchased 5.5 million shares under our share repurchase authorization for $681.2 million. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, we declared cash dividends totaling $88.7 million and repurchased 5.8 million shares under our share repurchase authorization for $600.0 million. On January 29, 2025, the Board of Directors increased our share repurchase authorization by $1.5 billion, which was publicly announced on January 30, 2025. On April 22, 2026, the Board of Directors approved an additional increase to our share repurchase authorization of $1.5 billion, which was publicly announced on April 23, 2026. At June 30, 2026, we had remaining authorization to repurchase $1.8 billion of common shares.
Under our share-based compensation plans, we accept shares as payment under certain conditions related to the vesting of shares, generally related to the payment of minimum tax obligations. In the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, participants surrendered shares valued at $38.1 million and $23.8 million, respectively, under these plans. Such share transactions are excluded from the above noted share repurchase authorization.
6. Income taxes
Our effective tax rate was 24.2 % and 23.6 % for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared with 24.6 % and 24.0 % for the comparable prior year periods in 2025. Our effective tax rate for each of these periods differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to state income tax expense and federal tax credits. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 also includes benefits from stock-based compensation.
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had net deferred tax liabilities of $412.8 million and $399.3 million, respectively. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between estimated and actual results could result in changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets that could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. Changes in existing tax laws could also affect actual tax results and the realization of deferred tax assets over time.
Unrecognized tax benefits represent the difference between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the benefits recognized for financial statement purposes. We had $29.6 million and $29.9 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Additionally, we had accrued interest and penalties of $0.1 million and $0.6 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

7. Fair value disclosures
Accounting Standards Codification 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, provides a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles 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 fair value hierarchy can be summarized as follows:
| Level 1 | Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||||||
| Level 2 | Fair value 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 determined using significant unobservable inputs, such as pricing models, discounted cash flows, or similar techniques. | |||||||
Our assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value are summarized below ($000’s omitted):

| Financial Services debt | Level 2 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Senior notes payable | Level 2 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Other notes payable | Level 2 | |||||||||||||||||||
Fair values for agency residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are determined based on quoted market prices for comparable instruments. Fair values for non-agency residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are determined based on purchase commitments from whole loan investors and other relevant market information available to management. Fair values for IRLCs, including the value of servicing rights, and forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities are valued based on market prices for similar instruments. Fair values for whole loan commitments are based on market prices for similar instruments from the specific whole loan investor.
The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents, Financial Services debt and other notes payable approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and/or floating interest rate terms. The fair values of senior notes are based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of similar issues. The carrying value of senior notes was $1.8 billion and $1.6 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Self-insured risks
We maintain, and require our subcontractors to maintain, general liability insurance coverage. We also maintain builders' risk, property, errors and omissions, workers compensation, and other business insurance coverages. These insurance policies protect us against a portion of the risk of loss from potential claims. However, we retain a significant portion of the overall risk for such claims either through our own self-insured per occurrence and aggregate retentions, deductibles, policies issued by our captive insurance subsidiaries, and any potential claims in excess of available insurance policy limits.
Our general liability insurance includes coverage for certain construction defects. While construction defect claims may relate to a variety of issues, the majority of our claims relate to alleged problems with siding, windows, roofing, and foundations. The availability of general liability insurance for the homebuilding industry and its subcontractors has become increasingly limited, and the insurance policies available require companies to retain significant per occurrence and aggregate retention levels. In certain instances, we may offer our subcontractors the opportunity to purchase general liability insurance through one of our captive insurance subsidiaries or participate in a project-specific insurance program. Policies issued by our captive insurance subsidiaries represent self-insurance of these risks by us, limited by reinsurance policies that we purchase. General liability coverage for the homebuilding industry is complex, and our coverage varies from policy year to policy year. Our insurance coverage requires a per occurrence retention as well as an overall aggregate amount. Amounts paid to resolve insured claims apply to our per occurrence and aggregate retention obligations. Any amounts incurred in excess of the occurrence or aggregate retention levels are covered by insurance up to the purchased coverage levels. Our insurance policies, including the captive insurance subsidiaries' reinsurance policies, are maintained with highly-rated carriers for whom we believe counterparty default risk is not significant.
At any point in time, we are managing numerous individual claims related to general liability, property, errors and omission, workers compensation, and other business insurance coverages. We reserve for costs associated with these claims (including expected claims management expenses) on an undiscounted basis at the time revenue is recognized for each home closing and evaluate the recorded liabilities based on actuarial analyses of our historical claims. The actuarial analyses calculate estimates of the ultimate net cost of all unpaid losses, including estimates for incurred but not reported losses ("IBNR"). IBNR represents losses related to claims incurred but not yet reported plus development on reported claims.
Our recorded reserves for all such claims totaled $262.2 million and $259.4 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The recorded reserves include loss estimates related to both (i) existing claims and related claim expenses and (ii) IBNR and related claim expenses. Liabilities related to IBNR and related claim expenses represented approximately 71 % and 74 % of the total general liability reserves at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The actuarial analyses that determine the IBNR portion of reserves consider a variety of factors, including the frequency and severity of losses, which are based on our historical claims experience supplemented by industry data. The actuarial analyses of the reserves also consider historical third party recovery rates and claims management expenses.
Volatility in both national and local housing market conditions may affect the frequency and cost of construction defect claims. Additionally, IBNR estimates comprise the substantial majority of our liability and are subject to a high degree of uncertainty due to a variety of factors, including changes in claims reporting and resolution patterns, third party recoveries, insurance industry practices, the regulatory environment, and legal precedent. State regulations vary, but construction defect claims are typically reported and resolved over an extended time period often exceeding ten years. Changes in the frequency and timing of reported claims and estimates of specific claim values can impact the underlying inputs and trends utilized in the actuarial analyses, which could have a material impact on the recorded reserves. Because of the inherent uncertainty in estimating future losses and the timing of such losses related to these claims, actual costs could differ significantly from estimated costs.

Leases
We lease certain office space and equipment for use in our operations. We recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and combine lease and non-lease components for all leases. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recorded on the balance sheet for all leases with an expected term of at least one year. Some leases include one or more options to renew. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at our discretion. The depreciable lives of ROU assets and leasehold improvements are limited to the expected lease term. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a pro rata share of the lessor’s operating costs which are variable in nature. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
ROU assets are classified within other assets on the balance sheet, while lease liabilities are classified within accrued and other liabilities. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. ROU assets and lease liabilities were $106.5 million and $130.0 million at June 30, 2026, respectively, and $109.7 million and $133.2 million at December 31, 2025, respectively. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 we recorded an additional $5.4 14.5 million and $34.1 million, respectively, in the comparable prior year periods. Payments on lease liabilities in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $6.6 million and $13.4 million, respectively, and $5.7 million and $11.5 million in the comparable prior year periods.
Lease expense includes costs for leases with terms in excess of one year as well as short-term leases with terms of less than one year. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 our total lease expense was $13.7 million and $27.7 million, respectively, and $15.2 million and $30.9 million in the comparable prior year periods. Our total lease expense is inclusive of variable lease costs of $2.1 million and $4.1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $2.3 million and $5.3 million in the comparable prior year periods, as well as short-term lease costs of $4.7 million and $9.4 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and $5.4 million and $11.5 million in the comparable prior year periods. Sublease income was de minimis.

Demand conditions remained challenging through the second quarter of 2026 as the result of elevated mortgage interest rates, higher housing costs, and general economic uncertainty. Volatility in geopolitical conditions, in part due to tensions in the Middle East, has also negatively impacted inflation and interest rates, further weakening consumer confidence. We have continued responding to these conditions by adjusting production cadence and sales prices where necessary and focusing sales incentives on discounts on spec inventory (houses without customer orders), closing cost incentives, and mortgage interest rate buydowns. These pricing actions contributed to a 6% increase in net new orders in units, but lower average selling prices and gross margins, during the second quarter of 2026 compared to the prior year period. Closings decreased 8% in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the prior year period primarily due to a lower order backlog entering 2026 compared to 2025.
We expect that many homebuyers will continue to face affordability challenges. In response, we expect our sales incentives to remain elevated and for our pace of house starts to remain dynamic in response to market conditions. We have successfully lowered our mix of spec home inventory. However, we continue to face pressure in the cost of land acquisition and development. Due to the length of our land development and construction cycle times, there is a lag between when such cost changes occur and when they impact our operating results. Our gross margin from home sales decreased to 25.0% in the second quarter of 2026 versus 27.0% in the second quarter of 2025, but increased from 24.4% in the first quarter of 2026 after sequential quarterly declines since the beginning of 2025. These decreases since 2025 are primarily due to the aforementioned higher land costs, pricing actions, and elevated sales incentives in response to buyer affordability challenges and reducing our mix of spec inventory.
Although elevated mortgage interest rates and volatile macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions may persist for some time, we believe the demographics supporting housing demand remain favorable over the long term. Inventories of new and existing homes have increased in the majority of our geographies as a result of the weakened demand experienced this year, so we are taking a measured approach to our capital allocation strategy as we anticipate continued volatility in demand. Accordingly, we are focused on protecting liquidity and closely managing our cash flows while also continuing to emphasize shareholder returns, including the following actions:
–Emphasizing our lot optionality within our land pipeline for increased flexibility;
–Updating the underwriting for our land option contracts prior to buying additional land, and we have made decisions to walk away from a number of land option agreements;
–Working with our trade partners to update the costs for materials, labor, and services to reflect changes in market conditions;
–Adjusting our overhead cost structure as necessary to align with demand;
–Rebalancing our mix of spec versus sold home inventory to continue to service buyers seeking to close within 30 to 90 days while increasing our backlog of build-to-order homes;
–Maintaining a focus on shareholder return through share buybacks and dividends, including $681.2 million of share repurchases in the first six months of 2026 and an 18% increase in our quarterly dividends from $0.22 to $0.26 per share effective with our January 2026 dividend payment;
24
–Opportunistically extending and expanding our revolving credit facility while also issuing $800.0 million of senior notes at lower interest rates than the $589.1 million of senior notes repaid and redeemed in the first three months of 2026; and
–Maintaining ample liquidity.
We believe our strategic approach with respect to balancing sales price with sales pace, including actions taken related to sales incentives and our production cadence, will enable us to meet consumer demand at the selling prices necessary to turn our inventory, maintain market share, and generate healthy returns. We remain confident in our ability to navigate the future environment and to position the Company to take advantage of opportunities as they arise and support future growth while maintaining profitability and financial strength.

Home sale revenues
Home sale revenues in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were lower than the prior year periods by $460.9 million and $902.6 million, respectively. In the three months ended June 30, 2026, the 11% decrease resulted primarily from an 8% decrease in closings from the prior year period, combined with a 3% decrease in average selling price. In the six months ended June 30, 2026 the 11% decrease resulted primarily from an 8% decrease in closings, combined with a 4% decrease in average selling price. The decreases in closings were primarily attributable to a weaker order backlog entering the year, partially offset by a higher community count and improved production cycle times. Average selling price during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased primarily due to product and geographic mix, combined with efforts to reduce our level of spec inventory during 2026.
Home sale gross margins
Home sale gross margins were 25.0% and 24.7% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared with 27.0% and 27.2% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The decreases in home sale gross margins were primarily attributable to the aforementioned pricing actions, including elevated sales incentives, and increased land acquisition and development costs. We expect these factors to continue to impact our gross margins over the near term. Gross margins for the first six months of 2026 were also unfavorably impacted by our efforts to reduce completed spec inventory to more appropriate levels.
Land sale and other revenues
We periodically elect to sell parcels of land to third parties in the event such assets no longer fit into our strategic operating plans or are zoned for commercial or other development. Land sale and other revenues and their related gains or losses vary between periods, depending on the timing of land sales and our strategic operating decisions. Land sale and other revenues contributed income of $10.8 million and $13.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared with income of $4.1 million and $5.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
SG&A
SG&A as a percentage of home sale revenues was 10.1% and 10.7% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared with 9.1% and 9.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The gross dollar amount of our SG&A decreased $7.5 million, or 2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared with the prior year period, and decreased $20.5 million, or 3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared with the prior year period. The decrease in gross dollars for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to lower variable costs associated with the decrease in closings along with lower liability insurance costs. We expect to continue managing and balancing our overhead costs consistent with expected changes in the demand environment.

Net new orders
Net new orders in units increased 6% while net new orders in dollars increased 5% in the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared with the prior year period. Net new orders in units increased 5% while net new orders in dollars increased 3% in the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared with the prior year period. The increased net new order volume and dollars in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 over the comparable prior year periods was primarily attributable to higher order volumes in our Florida and Midwest segments, partially offset by lower volumes in our West segment. Cancellation rates (canceled orders for the period divided by gross new orders for the period) were 13% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and 15% and 14% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. Ending backlog dollars, which represent orders for homes that have not yet closed, decreased 1% at June 30, 2026 compared with June 30, 2025.

The number of homes in production at June 30, 2026 was 6% lower than at June 30, 2025. This decrease was primarily due to our focus on reducing the number of spec homes and improved production cycle times, which reduces the length of time a home remains under construction.

While competition for well-positioned land is robust, we have continued to pursue land investments that we believe can achieve appropriate risk-adjusted returns on invested capital. We have also continued to seek to maintain a high percentage of our lots that are controlled via land option agreements as such contracts enable us to defer acquiring portions of properties owned by third parties or unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether and when to exercise our option, which reduces our financial risks associated with long-term land holdings. The remaining purchase price under our land option agreements totaled $9.7 billion at June 30, 2026.

Northeast
For the second quarter of 2026, Northeast home sale revenues decreased 33% when compared with the prior year period due to a 27% decrease in closings combined with an 8% decrease in average selling price.

Financial Services Operations
We conduct our Financial Services operations, which include mortgage banking, title, and insurance agency operations, through Pulte Mortgage LLC ("Pulte Mortgage") and other subsidiaries. In originating mortgage loans, we initially use our own funds supplemented by funds available pursuant to a credit agreement with third parties. Substantially all of the loans we originate are sold in the secondary market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. We also sell the servicing rights for the loans we originate through fixed price servicing sales contracts to reduce the risks and costs inherent in servicing loans. This strategy results in owning loans and related servicing rights for only a short period of time. Operating as a captive business model primarily targeted to support our Homebuilding operations, the business levels of our Financial Services operations are highly correlated to Homebuilding, as Homebuilding customers continue to account for substantially all of its business. We believe that our mortgage capture rate, which represents loan originations from our Homebuilding operations as a percentage of total loan opportunities from our Homebuilding operations, excluding cash closings, is an important metric in
32
evaluating the effectiveness of our captive mortgage business model. The following tables present selected financial information for our Financial Services operations ($000's omitted):

Revenues
Total Financial Services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased 4% and 12%, respectively, compared with the comparable prior year periods, reflective of the lower homebuilding volume. Insurance agency commissions reflect the evolving environment for home insurance as carriers adjust their premiums, geographic markets, and product coverages.
Income before income taxes
Income before income taxes in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased 13% and 36%, respectively, compared with the comparable prior year periods due to lower revenues combined with higher expenses.
Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was 24.2% and 23.6%, respectively, compared with 24.6% and 24.0% for the comparable prior year periods. Our effective tax rate for each of these periods differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to state income tax expense and federal tax credits. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 also includes benefits from stock-based compensation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We finance our land acquisition, development, and construction activities and financial services operations using internally-generated funds, supplemented by credit arrangements with third parties and capital market financing. We routinely monitor current and expected operational requirements and financial market conditions to evaluate accessing available financing sources, including revolving bank credit and securities offerings.
At June 30, 2026, we had unrestricted cash and equivalents of $1.3 billion, restricted cash balances of $41.6 million, and $1.4 billion available under our Revolving Credit Facility. Our ratio of debt-to-total capitalization, excluding our Financial Services debt, was 12.3% at June 30, 2026, compared with 11.2% at December 31, 2025. We follow a diversified investment approach for our cash and equivalents by maintaining such funds with a portfolio of banks within our group of relationship banks in high quality, highly liquid, short-term deposits and investments, which helps mitigate banking concentration risk.
For the next 12 months, we expect our principal demand for funds will be for the acquisition and development of land inventory, construction of house inventory, and operating expenses, including our general and administrative expenses. We plan to continue our dividend payments and repurchases of common stock. We need to repay or refinance Pulte Mortgage's master repurchase agreement with third-party lenders (as amended, the "Repurchase Agreement") prior to or at the time it comes due in August 2026. While we intend to refinance the Repurchase Agreement, there can be no assurances that the Repurchase Agreement can be renewed or replaced on commercially reasonable terms upon its expiration. However, we believe we have adequate liquidity to meet Pulte Mortgage's anticipated financing needs. Beyond the next 12 months, we will need to repay or refinance our Revolving Credit Facility, which matures in February 2031, and additional unsecured senior notes beginning in March 2031 and beyond (see Note 4). We may from time to time repurchase our unsecured senior notes through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise.
We believe that our current cash position and other available financing resources, coupled with our ongoing operating activities, will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our business needs over the next 12 months and beyond. To the extent the sources of capital described above are insufficient to meet our needs, we may also conduct additional public offerings of our securities, refinance debt, dispose of certain assets to fund our operating activities, or draw on existing or new debt facilities.
Unsecured senior notes
We had $1.8 billion and $1.6 billion of unsecured senior notes outstanding at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, no repayments are due until March 2031.
In February 2026, we issued $800.0 million of unsecured senior notes, consisting of $400.0 million of 4.250% senior notes scheduled to mature on March 1, 2031, and $400.0 million of 4.900% senior notes scheduled to mature on March 1, 2036. The net proceeds from the February 2026 senior notes issuance were used to repay at maturity $251.9 million principal amount of unsecured senior notes which matured on March 1, 2026, and to redeem in full prior to maturity all $337.3 million principal amount of unsecured senior notes which were scheduled to mature in January 2027, and, in each case, to pay any premium and accrued interest in respect thereof, with the remaining net proceeds used for general corporate purposes.
34
Other notes payable
Other notes payable include non-recourse and limited recourse secured notes with third parties that totaled $37.4 million and $47.2 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These notes have maturities ranging up to four years, are secured by the applicable land positions to which they relate, and generally have no recourse to other assets. The stated interest rates on these notes range up to 9%.
Revolving credit facility
We maintain a revolving credit facility with third-party lenders entered into in June 2022 (the "Original Revolving Credit Facility", and, as amended, the "Revolving Credit Facility") scheduled to mature in February 2031. The Original Revolving Credit Facility was amended and restated in February 2026 to (i) extend the maturity from June 2027 to February 2031, (ii) increase the total committed capacity from $1.25 billion to $1.75 billion, and (iii) expand the uncommitted accordion feature from $500.0 million to $750.0 million, providing for potential capacity of up to $2.5 billion, subject to customary conditions and additional lender commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for the issuance of letters of credit that reduce the available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility, up to the maximum borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be based on either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or a base rate, plus an applicable margin, as defined therein. The Revolving Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth and a maximum Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio (as each term is defined in the Revolving Credit Facility). As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all covenants and requirements of the Revolving Credit Facility. Outstanding balances under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
At June 30, 2026, we had no borrowings outstanding, $343.2 million of letters of credit issued, and $1.4 billion of remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2025, we had no borrowings outstanding, $357.1 million of letters of credit issued, and $892.9 million of remaining capacity under the Original Revolving Credit Facility.
Joint venture debt
At June 30, 2026, aggregate outstanding debt of unconsolidated joint ventures was $45.1 million.
Financial Services debt
Pulte Mortgage maintains a master repurchase agreement with third-party lenders (as amended, the "Repurchase Agreement") that matures on August 12, 2026. The maximum aggregate commitment under the Repurchase Agreement was $625.0 million at June 30, 2026, which continues until maturity. The Repurchase Agreement also contains an accordion feature that could increase the commitment by $50.0 million above its active commitment level. Borrowings under the Repurchase Agreement are secured by residential mortgage loans available-for-sale. The Repurchase Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Pulte Mortgage, including quantitative thresholds related to net worth, net income, and liquidity. At June 30, 2026, Pulte Mortgage had $477.9 million outstanding at a weighted-average interest rate of 5.42% and $147.1 million of remaining capacity under the Repurchase Agreement. At December 31, 2025, Pulte Mortgage had $532.3 million outstanding at a weighted-average interest rate of 5.51% and $92.7 million of remaining capacity under the Repurchase Agreement. Pulte Mortgage was in compliance with all covenants and requirements as of such dates.
Dividends and share repurchase program
In the six months ended June 30, 2026, we declared cash dividends totaling $99.5 million and repurchased 5.5 million shares under our share repurchase authorization for $681.2 million. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, we declared cash dividends totaling $88.7 million and repurchased 5.8 million shares under our share repurchase authorization for $600.0 million. On January 29, 2025, the Board of Directors increased our share repurchase authorization by $1.5 billion, which was publicly announced on January 30, 2025. On April 22, 2026, the Board of Directors approved an additional increase to our share repurchase authorization of $1.5 billion, which was publicly announced on April 23, 2026. At June 30, 2026, we had remaining authorization to repurchase $1.8 billion of common shares.
35
Contractual Obligations
We are a party to many contractual obligations involving commitments to make payments to third parties. These obligations impact our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. Certain contractual obligations are reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2026, while others are considered future commitments. Our contractual obligations primarily consist of long-term debt and related interest payments, purchase obligations related to expected acquisitions and development of land, house construction costs, operating leases, and obligations under our various compensation and benefit plans.
We use letters of credit and surety bonds to guarantee our performance under various contracts, principally in connection with the development of our homebuilding projects and insurance programs. The expiration dates of the letter of credit contracts coincide with the expected completion date of the related homebuilding projects and insurance programs. If the obligations related to a project or program are ongoing, annual extensions of the letters of credit are typically granted on a year-to-year basis. At June 30, 2026, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $343.2 million. Our surety bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. These bonds, which approximated $3.1 billion at June 30, 2026, are typically outstanding over a period of approximately three to five years. Because significant construction and development work has been performed related to projects that have not yet received final acceptance by the respective counterparties, the aggregate amount of surety bonds outstanding is in excess of the projected cost of the remaining work to be performed.
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land option agreements in order to procure land for the construction of houses in the future. At June 30, 2026, these agreements had an aggregate remaining purchase price of $9.7 billion. Pursuant to these land option agreements, we generally provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. At June 30, 2026, outstanding deposits totaled $717.4 million, of which $15.8 million is refundable.
For further information regarding our primary obligations, refer to Note 4 and Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on 10-Q for amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2026 related to debt and commitments and contingencies, respectively.
Cash flows
Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $176.8 million. Generally, the primary drivers of our cash flow from operations are profitability and changes in the levels of inventory and residential mortgage loans available-for-sale, each of which experience seasonal fluctuations. The cash inflows from our operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to net income of $819.0 million and a net decrease in residential mortgage loans available-for-sale of $63.9 million, partially offset by a net increase in inventories of $807.3 million, which was primarily attributable to land acquisition, development, and house spend to support ongoing operations.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $421.7 million. The cash inflows from our operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to net income of $1.1 billion, partially offset by a net increase in inventories of $533.0 million, which was primarily attributable to land acquisition, development, and house spend to support expected future growth.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $87.8 million. These cash outflows primarily resulted from capital expenditures of $55.3 million related to our ongoing investments in new communities, facilities, and information technology applications, along with $40.9 million of investments in unconsolidated entities.
Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $39.2 million. These cash outflows primarily resulted from capital expenditures of $64.1 million related to our ongoing investments in new communities, facilities, and information technology applications, partially offset by distributions of capital from unconsolidated entities of $39.4 million.
36
Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $720.5 million. These cash outflows resulted primarily from repayments and redemptions of notes payable of $600.7 million, repurchases of 5.5 million common shares for $681.2 million under our share repurchase authorization, payments of $101.8 million in cash dividends, and net repayments of $54.4 million under the Repurchase Agreement, partially offset by $794.8 million of proceeds from debt issuance.
Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 totaled $768.9 million. These cash outflows resulted primarily from repurchases of 5.8 million common shares for $600.0 million under our share repurchase authorization, payments of $90.1 million in cash dividends, payments of $22.4 million related to consolidated inventory not owned, and net repayments of $28.5 million under the Repurchase Agreement.
Seasonality
Although significant changes in market conditions have impacted our seasonal patterns in the past and could do so again, we historically experience variability in our quarterly results from operations due to the seasonal nature of the homebuilding industry. We generally experience increases in revenues and cash flow from operations in the fourth quarter based on the timing of home closings. This seasonal activity increases our working capital requirements in our third and fourth quarters to support our home production and loan origination volumes. As a result of the seasonality of our operations, our quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information
As of June 30, 2026, PulteGroup, Inc. had outstanding $1.8 billion principal amount of unsecured senior notes due at dates from March 2031 through March 2036 and no borrowings outstanding, $343.2 million of letters of credit issued, and $1.4 billion of remaining capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility.
All of our unsecured senior notes and the Revolving Credit Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by certain subsidiaries of PulteGroup, Inc. ("Guarantors" or "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries is 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by PulteGroup, Inc. Our subsidiaries associated with our Financial Services operations and certain other subsidiaries do not guarantee the unsecured senior notes or the Revolving Credit Facility (collectively, "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of each Guarantor and rank equal with all existing and future senior debt of such Guarantor and senior to all subordinated debt of such Guarantor. The guarantees are effectively subordinated to any secured debt of such Guarantor to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt.
A court could void or subordinate any Guarantor’s guarantee under the fraudulent conveyance laws if existing or future creditors of any such Guarantor were successful in establishing that such Guarantor:
(a) incurred the guarantee with the intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors; or
(b) received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration in return for incurring the guarantee and, in the case of any one of the following being true at the time thereof:
•such Guarantor was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of the issuance of the incurrence of the guarantee;
•the incurrence of the guarantee left such Guarantor with an unreasonably small amount of capital or assets to carry on its business;
•such Guarantor intended to, or believed that it would, incur debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature; or
•such Guarantor was a defendant in an action for money damages, or had a judgment for money damages docketed against it, if the judgment is unsatisfied after final judgment.
The measures of insolvency for purposes of determining whether a fraudulent conveyance occurred would vary depending upon the laws of the relevant jurisdiction and upon the valuation assumptions and methodology applied by the court. However, in general, a court would deem a company insolvent if:
•the sum of its debts, including contingent and unliquidated liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets;
•the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or
37
•it could not pay its debts as they became due.
The guarantees of the senior notes contain a provision to limit each Guarantor’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer. However, under certain case law, this provision may not be effective to protect such guarantee from being voided under fraudulent transfer law or otherwise determined to be unenforceable. If a court were to find that the incurrence of a guarantee was a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, the court could void the payment obligations under that guarantee, could subordinate that guarantee to presently existing and future indebtedness of the Guarantor or could require the holders of the senior notes to repay any amounts received with respect to that guarantee. In the event of a finding that a fraudulent transfer or conveyance occurred, holders may not receive any repayment on the senior notes.
Finally, as a court of equity, a bankruptcy court may subordinate the claims in respect of the guarantees to other claims against us under the principle of equitable subordination if the court determines that (1) the holder of senior notes engaged in some type of inequitable conduct, (2) the inequitable conduct resulted in injury to our other creditors or conferred an unfair advantage upon the holders of senior notes and (3) equitable subordination is not inconsistent with the provisions of the bankruptcy code.
On the basis of historical financial information, operating history and other factors, we believe that each of the Guarantors, after giving effect to the issuance of the guarantees when such guarantees were issued, was not insolvent, did not have unreasonably small capital for the business in which it engaged and did not and has not incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. We cannot, however, provide assurances as to what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or whether a court would agree with our conclusions in this regard.

Critical Accounting Estimates
There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates in the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared with those contained in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Quantitative disclosure
We are subject to market risk on our debt instruments primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates. We utilize both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. For fixed-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not affect the fair value of the debt instrument but could affect our earnings and cash flows. Except in very limited circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity. As a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value should not have a significant impact on our fixed-rate debt until we are required or elect to refinance or repurchase such debt.
The following table sets forth the principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted-average interest rates, and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of June 30, 2026 ($000’s omitted):

As a cautionary note, except for the historical information contained herein, certain matters discussed in Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, and elsewhere in this report are “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities, as well as those of the markets we serve or intend to serve, to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate to matters of a strictly factual or historical nature and generally discuss or relate to forecasts, estimates or other expectations regarding future events. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “project,” “may,” “can,” “could,” “might,” “should,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, including statements related to any potential impairment charges and the impacts or effects thereof, expected operating and performing results, planned transactions, planned objectives of management, future developments or conditions in the industries in which we participate and other trends, developments and uncertainties that may affect our business in the future.
Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, among other things: interest rate changes and the availability of mortgage financing; the impact of any changes to our strategy in responding to the cyclical nature of the industry or deteriorations in industry conditions or downward changes in general economic or other business conditions, including any changes regarding our land positions and the levels of our land spend; economic changes nationally or in our local markets, including inflation,
40
deflation, changes in consumer confidence and preferences and the state of the market for homes in general; supply shortages and the cost of labor and building materials; the availability and cost of land and other raw materials used by us in our homebuilding operations; a decline in the value of the land and home inventories we maintain and resulting possible future writedowns of the carrying value of our real estate assets; competition within the industries in which we operate; rapidly changing technological developments including, but not limited to, the use of artificial intelligence in the homebuilding industry; governmental regulation directed at or affecting the housing market, the homebuilding industry or construction activities, slow growth initiatives and/or local building moratoria; the availability and cost of insurance covering risks associated with our businesses, including warranty and other legal or regulatory proceedings or claims; damage from improper acts of persons over whom we do not have control or attempts to impose liabilities or obligations of third parties on us; weather related slowdowns; the impact of climate change and related governmental regulation; adverse capital and credit market conditions, which may affect our access to and cost of capital; the insufficiency of our income tax provisions and tax reserves, including as a result of changing laws or interpretations; the potential that we do not realize our deferred tax assets; our inability to sell mortgages into the secondary market; uncertainty in the mortgage lending industry, including revisions to underwriting standards and repurchase requirements associated with the sale of mortgage loans, and related claims against us; risks associated with the implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system; risks related to information technology failures, data security issues, and the effect of cybersecurity incidents and threats; the impact of negative publicity on sales; failure to retain key personnel; the impairment of our intangible assets; disruptions associated with epidemics, pandemics or other serious public health threats (as well as fear of such events), and the measures taken to address it; and other factors of national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic, business and competitive nature. See Item 1A – Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, for a further discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties applicable to our businesses. We undertake no duty to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or changes in our expectations.
