Modified · Business Environment and Current Outlook

During the firstsecond quarter of 2026, demand for new homes continued to be negatively impacted by affordability issues, high home inventory levels in certain markets, weak consumer sentiment and economic volatility. We expect that these issues may continue to weigh on demand and home prices. We also expect further margin pressure from higher land prices and from repositioning of communities as the housing market continues to adjust. Although we are unable to predict the extent to which this will impact our operational and financial performance, we believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities that may arise from future economic and homebuilding market volatility due to the strength of our balance sheet and our disciplined lot acquisition strategy.
