NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 or subsequent periods due to seasonal variations and other factors.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Green Brick Partners, Inc., its controlled subsidiaries, (together, the “Company”, “we”, or “Green Brick”) and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which Green Brick Partners, Inc. or one of its controlled subsidiaries is deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investments in unconsolidated entities over which it exercises significant influence but does not have a controlling interest. Under the equity method, the Company’s share of the unconsolidated entities’ earnings or losses, if any, is included in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, including the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

For a complete set of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs and any not listed below were assessed and determined to be not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”) Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires public companies to annually disclose specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). ASU 2023-09 will be effective for the annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 and does not expect it to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

5

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of (i) significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within the segment measure of profit or loss, (ii) an amount and description of its composition for other segment items to reconcile to segment profit or loss, and (iii) the title and position of the entity’s CODM. ASU 2023-07 will be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently reviewing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2023-07 may have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures.

(1)Land held for future development consists of raw land parcels where development activities have been postponed due to market conditions or other factors. All applicable carrying costs, including property taxes, are expensed as incurred.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company reviewed the performance and outlook for all of its communities for indicators of potential impairment and performed detailed impairment analysis when such indicators were identified. As of March 31, 2024, one selling community had an indicator of impairment. The Company estimated the remaining undiscounted cash flows for this community and determined its carrying value of $22.3 million does not exceed the community’s fair value. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not record an impairment adjustment to reduce the carrying value of communities or land inventory to fair value.

Sale of GB Challenger Ownership Interest
Effective February 1, 2024, the Company sold its ownership interest in GB Challenger, LLC (“Challenger”) to the entity that already held the controlling interest in Challenger for approximately $64.0 million in cash. A gain on this sale of $10.7 million is included in other income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Rainwater Crossing Single-Family, LLC Joint Venture
On February 15, 2024, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company established a joint venture (“JV”), Rainwater Crossing Single-Family, LLC (“Rainwater Crossing”), with Rainwater Single Family S-CORP to develop a tract of land in Celina, Texas. Both parties hold a 50% ownership interest in Rainwater Crossing. The Company evaluated the JV agreements and determined that it has a variable interest in this entity, but the Company is not its primary beneficiary. Specifically, the Company determined that it does not direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance as key decisions are subject to the approval of a management committee where both members are equally represented. Therefore, the Company’s investment in Rainwater Crossing is treated as an unconsolidated investment under the equity method of accounting and is included in investments in unconsolidated entities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result from its involvement with Rainwater Crossing was approximately $20.6 million, representing its $0.8 million investment and the Company’s remaining commitment to contribute to the joint venture $15.0 million in quarterly payments through March 31, 2029 and $4.8 million upon the joint venture’s initial land contribution. The Company will also fund the development costs related to this project.

2023 Share Repurchase Plan

8. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company’s stock compensation plan, the 2014 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, is administered by the Board and allows for the grant of stock awards (“SAs”), restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), restricted stock units (RSUs), stock options and other stock based awards.

Share-Based Award Activity
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted SAs to executive officers, RSAs to non-employee members of the Board, and PRSUs to employees. The SAs granted to the executive officers were 100% vested and non-forfeitable on the grant date. Non-vested stock awards are usually granted with a one-year vesting for non-employee directors, two-year cliff vesting for employee RSAs, and three-year cliff vesting for PRSUs. The fair value of all share awards were recorded as share-based compensation expense on the grant date and over the vesting period, respectively. The Company withheld 41,679 shares of common stock from executive officers at a total cost of $2.2 million, to satisfy statutory minimum tax requirements upon grant of the SAs.

The difference between the opening and closing balances of customer and builder deposits results from the timing difference between the customers’ payments of deposits and the Company’s delivery of the home, impacted slightly by cancellations of contracts.

The deposits on residential units and land and lots held as of the beginning of the period and recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows (in thousands):

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations
The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations on our land sale and lot option contracts is $7.2 million. The Company will recognize the remaining revenue when the lots are taken down, or upon closing for the sale of a land parcel, which is expected to occur in the remainder of 2024.

The timing of lot takedowns is contingent upon a number of factors, including customer and business needs, the number of lots being purchased, receipt of acceptance of the plat by the municipality, weather-related delays, and agreed-upon lot takedown schedules.

Our contracts with homebuyers have a duration of less than one year. As such, the Company uses the practical expedient as allowed under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and therefore has not disclosed the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.

10. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operational results of each reportable segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the reportable segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

11. INCOME TAXES
The Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $24.8 million and $19.0 million, respectively. The effective tax rate was 21.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 21.8% in the comparable prior year period. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 relates primarily to lower state tax expense and an improved rate benefit in the Energy Efficient Homes Tax credit as compared to pre-tax book income.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company’s RSAs have the right to receive forfeitable dividends on an equal basis with common stock and its PRSUs do not participate in dividends with common stock. As such, these stock awards are not considered participating securities that must be included in the calculation of net income per share using the two-class method.

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, adjusted for non-vested shares of RSAs and PRSUs during each period. Net income applicable to common stockholders is net income adjusted for preferred stock dividends including dividends declared and cumulative dividends related to the current dividend period that have not been declared as of period end. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method and includes the effect of all dilutive securities, including stock options, RSAs and PRSUs.

The computation of basic and diluted net income attributable to Green Brick Partners, Inc. per share is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, customer and builder deposits, borrowings on lines of credit, senior unsecured notes, and notes payable.

Per the fair value hierarchy, level 1 financial instruments include: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and customer and builder deposits due to their short-term nature. The Company estimates that, due to the short-term nature of the underlying financial instruments or the proximity of the underlying transaction to the applicable reporting date, the fair value of level 1 financial instruments does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Level 2 financial instruments include borrowings on lines of credit, senior unsecured notes, and notes payable. Due to the short-term nature and floating interest rate terms, the carrying amounts of borrowings on lines of credit are deemed to approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the senior unsecured notes as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $296.0 million and $322.5 million, respectively. The aggregate principal balance of the senior unsecured notes was $312.5 million and $337.5 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of our financial instruments during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

14. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Letters of Credit and Performance Bonds
During the ordinary course of business, certain regulatory agencies and municipalities require the Company to post letters of credit or performance bonds related to development projects. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, letters of credit and performance bonds outstanding were $9.3 million and $13.5 million. The Company does not believe that it is likely that any material claims will be made under a letter of credit or performance bond in the foreseeable future.

Operating Leases
The Company has leases associated with office and design center space in Georgia, Texas, and Florida that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of more than 12 months and are classified as operating leases. The exercise of any extension options available in such operating lease contracts is not reasonably certain.
16

Operating lease cost of $0.4 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, the weighted-average remaining lease term and the weighted-average discount rate used in calculating our lease liabilities were 6.4 years and 7.3%, respectively.

The future annual undiscounted cash flows in relation to the operating leases and a reconciliation of such undiscounted cash flows to the operating lease liabilities recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 are presented below (in thousands):
Remainder of 2024$1,063 
20251,618 
20261,533 
20271,501 
20281,462 
Thereafter2,825 
Total future lease payments$10,002 
Less: Interest2,129 
Present value of lease liabilities$7,873 

The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. For such leases, the Company does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities and instead recognizes lease payments in the condensed consolidated income statements on a straight-line basis. Short-term lease cost of $0.2 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Legal Matters
Lawsuits, claims and proceedings may be instituted or asserted against us in the normal course of business. The Company is also subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, title company regulations, employment practices and environmental protection. As a result, the Company may be subject to periodic examinations or inquiry by agencies administering these laws and regulations.

The Company records an accrual for legal claims and regulatory matters when they are probable of occurring and a potential loss is reasonably estimable. The Company accrues for these matters based on facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revises these estimates when necessary.

In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting outcomes of legal claims and related contingencies, the Company generally cannot predict their ultimate resolution, related timing or eventual loss. If evaluations indicate loss contingencies that could be material are not probable, but are reasonably possible, the Company will disclose their nature with an estimate of the possible range of losses or a statement that such loss is not reasonably estimable. We believe that the disposition of legal claims and related contingencies will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and liquidity or on our financial condition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 29, 2024 and our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview and Outlook
Our key financial and operating metrics are home deliveries, home closings revenue, average sales price of homes delivered, and net new home orders, which refers to sales contracts executed reduced by the number of sales contracts canceled during the relevant period. Our results for each key financial and operating metric, as compared to the same period in 2023, are provided below:
Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Home deliveries
Increased by 7.9%
Home closings revenue
Decreased by 1.4%
Average sales price of homes delivered
Decreased by 8.6%
Net new home orders
Increased by 0.4%
Homebuilding gross margin percentage
Increased by 580 bps

During the first quarter of 2024, our strong operating results continued to be driven by our superior infill and infill-adjacent locations in high-growth markets, our reduced cycle times, and the strong demand for new homes in our markets. Our average active selling communities increased 17.5% while the average sales price of homes delivered decreased 8.6%, primarily as a result of closing out infill communities and opening new communities in surrounding infill-adjacent areas, with homebuilding gross margins improving from 27.6% to 33.4%.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
Residential Units Revenue and New Homes Delivered
The table below represents residential units revenue and new homes delivered for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31,
20242023Change%
Home closings revenue$443,094 $449,430 $(6,336)(1.4)%
Mechanic’s lien contracts revenue190 932 (742)(79.6)%
Residential units revenue$443,284 $450,362 $(7,078)(1.6)%
New homes delivered821 761 60 7.9 %
Average sales price of homes delivered$539.7 $590.6 $(50.9)(8.6)%

The $7.1 million or 1.6% decrease in residential units revenue was primarily driven by an 8.6% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered offset by a 7.9% increase in new homes delivered for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in new homes delivered was primarily driven by increased levels of finished and finishing spec home inventory entering the quarter. The 8.6% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was a result of closing out infill communities and opening new communities in surrounding infill-adjacent areas.

New Home Orders and Backlog
The table below represents new home orders and backlog related to our builder operations segments, excluding mechanic’s lien contracts (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31,
20242023Change%
Net new home orders1,071 1,067 0.4 %
Revenue from net new home orders$613,384 $630,928 $(17,544)(2.8)%
Average selling price of net new home orders$572.7 $591.3 $(18.6)(3.1)%

Active selling communities at end of period98 79 19 24.1 %
Backlog$725,489 $550,593 $174,896 31.8 %
Backlog units1,020 843 177 21.0 %
Average sales price of backlog$711.3 $653.1 $58.2 8.9 %

Net new home orders remained flat year over year at 1,071, the second highest quarterly sales orders in company history. Our absorption rate per average active selling community remained robust at 11.4 per quarter (3.8 per month) despite higher interest rates. Moreover, our net new home orders increased 57.7% sequentially from Q4 2023 due to a 7.7% increase in our active selling communities and strong demand within our markets. The 2.8% decrease in revenue from net new home orders is primarily attributable to a higher mix of sales from newer, in-fill adjacent communities and fewer sales from closed-out, infill communities.

Backlog refers to homes under sales contracts that have not yet closed at the end of the relevant period, and absorption rate refers to the rate at which net new home orders are contracted per average active selling community during the relevant period. Sales contracts may be canceled prior to closing for a number of reasons, including the inability of the homebuyer to obtain suitable mortgage financing. Accordingly, backlog may not be indicative of our future revenue.

Backlog increased by 31.8% year-over-year, with a 21.0% increase in backlog units and 8.9% increase in the average price of backlog units. As of March 31, 2024, backlog increased 30.7% compared to December 31, 2023. Moreover, our spec units under construction as a percentage of total units under construction decreased from 69.8% as of December 31, 2023 to 60.5% as of March 31, 2024, and compared to 59.2% as of March 31, 2023.

Our cancellation rate, which refers to sales contracts canceled divided by sales contracts executed during the relevant period, was 4.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 6.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Residential units gross margin$147,971 33.4 %$124,238 27.6 %

Residential units revenue decreased by $7.1 million or 1.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 mainly due to a reduction of the average sales price of homes delivered partially offset by an increase in homes delivered. Cost of residential units for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased by $30.8 million, or 9.4%, compared to the same period in the previous year due to a combination of lower direct construction costs and lower lot costs associated with the higher mix of deliveries from infill-adjacent communities.

Residential units gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was 33.4%, compared to 27.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in residential units gross margin is attributable to product mix and limited competition in our infill and infill-adjacent community sites.

Lots Revenue
The table below represents lots revenue and lots closed (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31,
20242023Change%
Lots revenue$4,054 $1,699 $2,355 138.6 %

Average sales price of lots closed$64.3 $94.4 $(30.1)(31.9)%

From time to time we will opportunistically sell finished lots to other homebuilders when we determine that we have excess capacity in specific neighborhoods or submarkets. Lots revenue increased by $2.4 million or 138.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2024, driven by a 250.0% increase in the number of lots closed partially offset by a 31.9% decrease in the average lot price.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
The table below represents the components of selling, general and administrative expenses (dollars in thousands):

Total selling, general and administrative expenses$50,570 $45,945 11.3 %10.2 %

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased by 1.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 mainly due to an increase in incentive compensation.

Builder Operations
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for builder operations increased from 10.2% in the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 11.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2024 due to an increase in incentive compensation. Builder operations expenditures include salary expenses, sales commissions, and community costs such as advertising and marketing expenses, rent, professional fees, and non-capitalized property taxes.

Corporate, Other and Unallocated
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the corporate, other and unallocated non-operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $1.3 million, compared to income of $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was driven by higher incentive compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2024. Corporate, other and unallocated expenses generally include capitalized overhead adjustments that are not allocated to builder operations segments.

Equity in Income of Unconsolidated Entities
Equity in income of unconsolidated entities decreased to $2.6 million, or 38.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease is mainly due to the sale of our ownership interest in GB Challenger during the three months ended March 31, 2024, wherein, we recognized only one month of net earnings from this investment compared to three months in the prior year. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a summary of Green Brick’s share in net earnings by unconsolidated entity.

Other Income, Net
Other income, net, increased to $15.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $10.7 million gain in the sale of our investment in GB Challenger.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $24.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $19.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was substantially due to higher taxable income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $185.9 million and $179.8 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, respectively. Our historical cash management strategy includes redeploying net cash from the sale of home inventory to acquire and develop land and lots that represent opportunities to generate desired margins and returns, and using cash to make additional investments in business acquisitions, joint ventures, or other strategic activities.

Our principal uses of capital for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were home construction, land purchases, land development, repayments of debt, operating expenses, and payment of routine liabilities. Historically, we have used funds generated by operations and available borrowings to meet our short-term working capital requirements. We remain focused on generating positive margins in our homebuilding operations and acquiring desirable land positions in order to maintain a strong balance sheet and remain poised for continued growth.

Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the community’s stage in the development cycle. Early stages of development or expansion require significant cash outlays for land acquisitions, entitlements and other approvals, roads,
23

utilities, general landscaping and other amenities, and home construction. These costs are a component of our inventory and are not recognized in our statement of income until a home closes. In the later stages of community life cycle, cash inflows may significantly exceed earnings reported for financial statement purposes, as the cash outflows associated with home construction and land development previously occurred.

Effective February 1, 2024, we sold our ownership interest in GB Challenger, LLC (“Challenger”) to the entity that already held the controlling interest in Challenger for approximately $64.0 million in cash. We intend to use the proceeds from the transaction for investment in and expansion of opportunities with those builders in which we hold a controlling or one-hundred percent (100%) ownership interest, particularly including the growth and expansion of our Trophy Signature Homes brand into the Austin and Houston markets and other potential new markets.

Our debt to total capitalization ratio, which is calculated as the sum of borrowings on lines of credit, the senior unsecured notes, and notes payable, net of debt issuance costs (“total debt”), divided by the total capitalization, which equals the sum of Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders’ equity and total debt, was approximately 18.3% as of March 31, 2024.

Additionally, as of March 31, 2024, our net debt to total capitalization ratio, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, remained low at 8.2%. It is our intent to prudently employ leverage to continue to invest in our land acquisition, development and homebuilding activities. We target a debt to total capitalization ratio of up to approximately 30%, which we expect will provide us with significant additional growth capital.

Reconciliation of a Non-GAAP Financial Measure
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we utilize a financial measure of net debt to total capitalization ratio that is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC. Net debt to total capitalization is calculated as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by the sum of total Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders’ equity and total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We present this measure because we believe it is useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company’s financing structure. We also believe this measure facilitates the comparison of our financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because this measure is not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The closest GAAP financial measure to the net debt to total capitalization ratio is the debt to total capitalization ratio. The following table represents a reconciliation of the net debt to total capitalization ratio as of March 31, 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Key Sources of Liquidity
Our key sources of liquidity were funds generated by operations and provided by borrowings during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Cash Flows
The following summarizes our primary sources and uses of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023:

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $1.0 million, compared to $154.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The net cash inflows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were primarily driven by cash generated from business operations of $86.0 million and deferral of expense payments through a $17.8 million increase in accrued expenses, offset primarily by a $124.8 million increase in inventory.
24


Investing activities. Net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $61.3 million, compared to net cash used of $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The cash inflows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were primarily from proceeds of $64.0 million from the sale of our interest in GB Challenger in February 2024, partially offset by $1.7 million used in other investments in unconsolidated entities.

Financing activities. Net cash used by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $51.3 million, compared to $49.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The cash outflows were primarily related to repayments of senior unsecured notes of $25.0 million and notes payable of $12.9 million.

Debt Instruments
Secured Revolving Credit Facility As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had no amounts outstanding under our $350.0 million Secured Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Secured Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the rate announced by Bank of America, N.A. as its “Prime Rate” less 0.25%, subject to a minimum rate. As amended, this credit agreement matures on May 1, 2025 and carries a minimum interest rate of 3.15%.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility – As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had no amounts outstanding under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility. Outstanding advances under the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility accrue interest at the benchmark rate plus 2.5%. As amended, $300.0 million of the commitments under the credit facility mature on December 14, 2026, with the remaining $25.0 million of the commitments expiring December 14, 2025.

Senior Unsecured Notes - As of March 31, 2024, we had four series of senior unsecured notes outstanding that were each issued pursuant to a note purchase agreement. The aggregate amount of senior unsecured notes outstanding was $311.3 million as of March 31, 2024 compared to $336.2 million as of December 31, 2023, net of issuance costs.
In August 2019, we issued $75.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2026 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 4.0% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2026 Notes is required to be paid in increments of $12.5 million on each of August 8, 2024 and August 8, 2025 with a final principal payment of $50.0 million on August 8, 2026.
In August 2020, we issued $37.5 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2027 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.35% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2027 Notes is due on August 26, 2027.
In February 2021, we issued $125.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2028 Notes”) of which $100.0 million is outstanding as of March 31, 2024. Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.25% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2028 Notes is due in increments of $25.0 million annually on February 25 in each of 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028.
In December 2021, we issued $100.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2029 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.25% and is payable quarterly. A required principal prepayment of $30.0 million is due on December 28, 2028. The remaining unpaid principal balance is due on December 28, 2029.

Optional prepayment is allowed with payment of a “make-whole” premium that fluctuates depending on market interest rates. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears.

On January 30, 2024, we entered into a First Amendment to each of our outstanding note purchase agreements to revise certain financial covenants in order to appropriately reflect our size and growth and to align each note purchase agreement with our recently amended credit agreement. All other material terms of the note purchase agreements remain unchanged.

Our debt instruments require us to maintain specific financial covenants, each of which we were in compliance with as of March 31, 2024. Specifically, under the most restrictive covenants, we are required to maintain the following:
a minimum interest coverage (consolidated EBITDA to interest incurred) of no less than 2.0 to 1.0. As of March 31, 2024, our interest coverage on a last 12 months’ basis was 28.63 to 1.0;
a Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of no less than approximately $862.9 million. As of March 31, 2024, our Consolidated Tangible Net Worth was $1,382.3 million; and
a maximum debt to total capitalization rolling average ratio of no more than 40.0%. As of March 31, 2024, we had a rolling average ratio of 20.0%.

As of March 31, 2024, we believe that our cash on hand, capacity available under our lines of credit and cash flows from operations for the next twelve months will be sufficient to service our outstanding debt during the next twelve months and fund our operations. For additional information on our lines of credit, senior unsecured notes, and notes payable, refer to Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Preferred Equity
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was had 2,000,000 Depositary Shares issued and outstanding, each representing 1/1000 of a share of our 5.75% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). We will pay cumulative cash dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock, when and as declared by the Board, at the rate of 5.75% of the $25,000 liquidation preference per share. Dividends payable quarterly in arrears. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we paid dividends of $0.7 million on our Series A Preferred Stock. On April 25, 2024, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.359 per depositary share on our Series A Preferred Stock. The dividend is payable on June 15, 2024 to stockholders of record as of June 1, 2024.

Registration Statements
In September 2023, we filed with the SEC an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 which enables us to issue shares of common stock, preferred stock or debt securities either separately or represented by warrants, or depositary shares as well as units that include any of these securities. Under the rules governing shelf registration statements, we will file a prospectus supplement and advise the SEC of the amount and type of securities each time we issue securities under this registration statement. We have not issued any securities under this registration statement through the date of this filing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

Land and Lot Option Contracts
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land purchase contracts in order to procure lots for the construction of our homes in the future. We are subject to customary obligations associated with such contracts. These purchase contracts typically require an earnest money deposit, and the purchase of properties under these contracts is generally contingent upon satisfaction of certain requirements, including obtaining applicable property and development entitlements.

We also utilize option contracts with lot sellers as a method of acquiring lots in staged takedowns, which are the schedules that dictate when lots must be purchased to help manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings, and to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources. Lot option contracts generally require us to pay a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at pre-determined prices that typically include escalations in lot prices over time.

Our utilization of lot option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into these arrangements, the availability of capital to finance the development of optioned lots, general housing market conditions and local market dynamics. Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions.

We generally have the right, at our discretion, to terminate our obligations under both purchase contracts and option contracts by forfeiting the earnest money deposit with no further financial responsibility to the seller.

As of March 31, 2024, we had earnest money deposits of $12.8 million at risk associated with contracts to purchase 2,084 lots past feasibility studies with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $146.1 million.

Seasonality
The homebuilding industry experiences seasonal fluctuations in quarterly operating results and capital requirements. We typically experience the highest new home order activity in spring and summer, although this activity is highly dependent on the number of active selling communities, timing of new community openings, interest rates and other market factors. Since it typically takes five to nine months to construct a new home, we normally deliver more homes in the second half of the year as spring and summer home orders are delivered. Because of this seasonality, home starts, construction costs and related cash outflows have historically been highest in the second and third quarters, and the majority of cash receipts from home deliveries typically occur during the second half of the year.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our critical accounting policies are described in Part II, 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, 2023.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer ( “CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024 in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file, furnish, submit or otherwise provide to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, in such a manner as to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no changes in our internal controls that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our internal control over financial reporting.
