TAYLOR MORRISON HOME CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS

Organization and Description of the Business — Taylor Morrison Home Corporation “TMHC” through its subsidiaries (together with TMHC referred to herein as “we,” “our,” “the Company” and “us”), owns and operates a residential homebuilding business and is a developer of lifestyle communities. As of September 30, 2019, we operated in the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, North and South Carolina, and Texas. Our Company serves a wide array of consumer groups from coast to coast, including first time, move-up, luxury, and active adult. Our homebuilding segments operate under our Taylor Morrison and Darling Homes brand names. Our business is organized into multiple homebuilding operating components, and a financial services component, all of which are managed as four reportable segments: East, Central, West, and Financial Services. The communities in our homebuilding segments offer single and multi-family attached and detached homes. We are the general contractors for all real estate projects and retain subcontractors for home construction and land development. Our Financial Services segment provides financial services to customers through our wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, operating as Taylor Morrison Home Funding, LLC (“TMHF”), and title services through our wholly owned title services subsidiary, Inspired Title Services, LLC (“Inspired Title”).

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation — The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair presentation of our results for the interim periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year.

Non-controlling interests - During the first quarter of 2018, we completed multiple offerings of our Class A common stock in registered public offerings and used all of the net proceeds from the public offerings to purchase partnership units in New TMM (“New TMM Units”) along with shares of our former Class B common stock held by certain former principal equityholders. In addition on October 26, 2018, in connection with our reorganization transactions, all Class B common shares were converted to Class A common shares and subsequently retired. See Note 12- Stockholders' Equity for additional information. The percentage of the former principal equityholders net income is presented as “Net income attributable to non-controlling interests” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Non-controlling interests - Joint Ventures - We consolidate certain joint ventures in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, “Consolidation.” The income from the percentage of the joint venture not owned by us is presented as “Net income attributable to non-controlling interests - joint ventures” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include real estate development costs to complete, valuation of real estate, valuation of acquired assets, valuation of goodwill, valuation of equity awards, valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and reserves for warranty and self-insured risks. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Real Estate Inventory — Inventory consists of raw land, land under development, homes under construction, completed homes, and model homes, all of which are stated at cost. In addition to direct carrying costs, we also capitalize interest, real estate taxes, and related development costs that benefit the entire community, such as field construction supervision and related direct overhead. Home vertical construction costs are accumulated and charged to cost of sales at the time of home closing using the specific identification method. Land acquisition, development, interest, real estate taxes and overhead are allocated to homes and units using the relative sales value method. These costs are capitalized to inventory from the point development begins to the point construction is completed. Changes in estimated costs to be incurred in a community are generally allocated to the remaining lots on a prospective basis. For those communities that have been temporarily closed or development has been discontinued, we do not allocate interest or other costs to the community’s inventory until activity resumes. Such costs are expensed as incurred.

Table of Contents

We capitalize qualifying interest costs to inventory during the development and construction periods. Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales when the related inventory is charged to cost of sales.

We assess the recoverability of our inventory in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. We review our real estate inventory for indicators of impairment by community during each reporting period. If indicators of impairment are present for a community, we first perform an undiscounted cash flow analysis to determine if the carrying value of the assets in that community exceeds the expected undiscounted cash flows. Generally, if the carrying value of the assets exceeds their estimated undiscounted cash flows, then the assets are deemed to be impaired and are recorded at fair value as of the assessment date. Our determination of fair value is primarily based on a discounted cash flow model which includes projections and estimates relating to sales prices, construction costs, sales pace, and other factors. Changes in these expectations may lead to a change in the outcome of our impairment analysis, and actual results may also differ from our assumptions. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, no impairment charges were recorded.

In certain cases, we may elect to cease development and/or marketing of an existing community if we believe the economic performance of the community would be maximized by deferring development for a period of time to allow for market conditions to improve. We refer to such communities as long-term strategic assets. The decision may be based on financial and/or operational metrics as determined by us. If we decide to cease development, we will evaluate the project for impairment and then cease future development and marketing activity until such a time when we believe that market conditions have improved and economic performance can be maximized. Our assessment of the carrying value of our long-term strategic assets typically includes subjective estimates of future performance, including the timing of when development will recommence, the type of product to be offered, and the margin to be realized. In the future, some of these inactive communities may be re-opened while others may be sold. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had no inactive projects.

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various specific performance agreements to acquire lots. Real estate not owned under these agreements is reflected in “Real estate not owned” with a corresponding liability in “Liabilities attributable to real estate not owned” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We evaluate our investments in unconsolidated entities for indicators of impairment. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in value of our investment in the unconsolidated entity has occurred which is other-than-temporary. The amount of impairment recognized is the excess of the investment’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Additionally, we consider various qualitative factors to determine if a decrease in the value of the investment is other-than-temporary. These factors include age of the venture, stage in its life cycle, our intent and ability to recover our investment in the unconsolidated entity, financial condition and long-term prospects of the unconsolidated entity, short-term liquidity needs of the unconsolidated entity, trends in the general economic environment of the land, entitlement status of the land held by the unconsolidated entity, overall projected returns on investment, defaults under contracts with third parties (including bank debt), recoverability of the investment through future cash flows and relationships with the other partners. If the Company believes that the decline in the fair value of the investment is temporary, then no impairment is recorded. We did not record any impairment charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Leases — We adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842), as amended, on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach. In addition, we elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification. We also elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term for existing leases.

Our leases primarily consist of office space, construction trailers, model leasebacks, and equipment or storage units. Certain of our leases offer the option to renew or to increase rental square footage. The execution of such options are at our discretion and may result in a lease modification.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of an opening balance of Operating lease right of use assets and Operating lease liabilities of approximately $27.4 million and $30.3 million, respectively. The weighted average discount rate used in determining these operating lease liabilities was 5.795% and the weighted average remaining lease term as of September 30, 2019 was 6.2 years. Payments on the lease liabilities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were approximately $2.5 million and $6.8 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded lease expense of approximately $2.5 million and $6.7 million, respectively, within General and administrative expenses on our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The future minimum lease payments required under our leases as of September 30, 2019 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Revenue Recognition

Topic 606

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09” or “Topic 606”). The standard's core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

Home and land closings revenue

Under Topic 606, the following steps are applied to determine the proper home closings revenue and land closings revenue recognition: (1) we identify the contract(s) with our customer; (2) we identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) we determine the transaction price; (4) we allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) we recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation. For our home sales transactions, we have one contract, with one performance obligation, with each customer to build and deliver the home purchased (or develop and deliver land). Based on the application of the five steps, the following summarizes the timing and manner of home and land sales revenue:


•	Revenue from closings of residential real estate is recognized when closings have occurred, the buyer has made the required minimum down payment, obtained necessary financing, the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer, and we have no continuing involvement with the property, which is generally upon the close of escrow. Revenue is reported net of any discounts and incentives.


•	Revenue from land sales is recognized when a significant down payment is received, title passes and collectability of the receivable is reasonably assured, and we have no continuing involvement with the property, which is generally upon the close of escrow.

Amenity and other revenue

We own and operate certain amenities pursuant to recorded mandatory club plans, which require us to provide club members with access to amenity facilities in exchange for the payment of club dues. We collect club dues and other fees from the club members, which are billed on a monthly basis. Revenue from our golf club operations is also included in amenity and other revenue.

Financial services revenue

Mortgage operations and hedging activity related to financial services are not within the scope of Topic 606. Loan origination fees (including title fees, points, and closing costs) are recognized at the time the related real estate transactions are completed, usually upon the close of escrow. All of the loans TMHF originates are sold to third party investors within a short period of time, on a non-recourse basis. Gains and losses from the sale of mortgages are recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 860-20, Sales of Financial Assets. TMHF does not have continuing involvement with the transferred assets, therefore, we derecognize the mortgage loans at time of sale, based on the difference between the selling price and carrying value of the related loans upon sale, recording a gain/loss on sale in the period of sale. Also included in financial services revenue/expenses are realized and unrealized gain and losses from hedging instruments.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a

Table of Contents

broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2020. We do not believe the adoption of the ASU 2016-13 will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, all material assets acquired and liabilities assumed from our acquisition of AV Homes, Inc. ("AV Homes") on October 2, 2018 were measured and recognized at fair value as of the date of the acquisition to reflect the purchase price paid.

We determined the estimated fair value of real estate inventory primarily using the sales comparison and income approaches. To a certain extent, certain inventory was valued using third party appraisals and/or market comparisons. The sales comparison approach was used for all inventory in process. The income approach derives a value using a discounted cash flow for income-producing real property. This approach was used exclusively for finished lots. These estimated cash flows and ultimate valuation are significantly affected by the discount rate, estimates related to expected average selling prices and sales incentives, expected sales paces and cancellation rates, expected land development and construction timelines, and anticipated land development, construction, overhead costs and may vary significantly between communities.

During the third quarter of 2019, we finalized the allocation of the purchase price with immaterial changes to the preliminary amounts disclosed. The following is a summary of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

8. ESTIMATED DEVELOPMENT LIABILITY

The estimated development liability consists primarily of the estimated cost of future utilities improvements in Poinciana, Florida and Rio Rico, Arizona for more than 8,000 home sites previously sold, in most cases prior to 1980. The estimated development liability is reduced by actual expenditures and is evaluated and adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect management’s estimate of potential completion costs. We obtained third-party engineer evaluations and recorded this liability at fair value to reflect the estimated completion costs. Future increases or decreases of costs for construction, material and labor, as well as other land development and utilities infrastructure costs, may have a significant effect on the estimated development liability.

10. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

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

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

Level 2 — Fair value is determined using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or are directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 — Fair value is determined using one or more significant inputs that are unobservable in active markets at the measurement date, such as a pricing model, discounted cash flow, or similar technique.

The fair value of our mortgage loans held for sale is derived from negotiated rates with partner lending institutions. The fair value of derivative assets includes interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) and mortgage backed securities (“MBS”). The fair value of IRLCs is based on the value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted MBS prices and the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the IRLCs. We estimate the fair value of the forward sales commitments based on quoted MBS prices. The fair value of our mortgage warehouse borrowings, loans payable and other borrowings, the borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and our 364-Day Credit Agreement approximate carrying value due to their short term nature and variable interest rate terms. The fair value of our Senior Notes is derived from quoted market prices by independent dealers in markets that are not active. There were no changes to or transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of our financial instruments as of September 30, 2019, when compared to December 31, 2018.

The carrying value and fair value of our financial instruments are as follows:



		September 30, 2019				December 31, 2018

⁽¹⁾ Carrying value for Senior Notes, as presented, includes unamortized debt issuance costs. Debt issuance costs are not factored into the fair value calculation for the Senior Notes.

⁽²⁾Carrying value for the 2022 Senior Notes reflects the acquisition fair value adjustment, net of amortization, whereas the fair value reflects current market pricing.

Fair value measurements are used for inventories on a nonrecurring basis when events and circumstances indicate that their carrying value is not recoverable. The following table presents the fair value for our inventories measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

(Dollars in thousands)		For the Year Ended December 31,
Description:	Level in Fair Value Hierarchy	2018
Inventories	3	$	5,545

At September 30, 2019, the fair value for such inventories was not determined as there were no events and circumstances that indicated their carrying value was not recoverable.

11. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was 25.9% and 25.4%, respectively, compared to 6.4% and 15.9% for the same periods in 2018, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes, non-deductible executive compensation, uncertain tax positions, and discrete tax adjustments related to certain deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was favorably impacted by the adjustments to our existing deferred tax assets resulting from tax accounting method changes affirmatively accepted by the IRS and adjustments to the provisional tax expense for the mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings resulting from completing our calculations of the transition tax as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Act") and finalizing our 2017 U.S. federal income tax returns.

At both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, cumulative gross unrecognized tax benefits were $7.4 million. If the unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2019 were to be recognized, approximately $5.9 million would affect the effective tax rate. We had $0.9 million and $0.7 million of gross interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions accrued as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

12. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Capital Stock

As of October 26, 2018, as a result of a holding company reorganization and related transactions each share of the Company’s former Class B common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Class B common stock”), and paired partnership units of TMM Holdings II Limited Partnership were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“Class A common stock”). Following this exchange, all of the shares of Class B common stock were canceled, and the Company had only one class of common stock outstanding. On May 29, 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of the Company’s certificate of incorporation to (i) delete provisions no longer applicable following the cancellation of all outstanding shares of the former Class B common stock; and (ii) to rename the Company’s Class A common stock as “Common Stock, par value $0.00001 per share.” Following this amendment and restatement, under the Company’s certificate of incorporation, its authorized capital stock consists of 400,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share.

References to “Common Stock” refer to “Class A Common Stock” for dates prior to June 10, 2019.

Stock Repurchase Program

On March 11, 2019, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100 million of Common Stock through December 31, 2019 in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or other transactions. We did not repurchase shares during the three months ended September 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we repurchased 8,389,348 shares of Common Stock under the Company's stock repurchase program. As of September 30, 2019, we have fully utilized the authorization and currently do not have additional authorization for stock repurchases.

13. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Equity-Based Compensation

In April 2013, we adopted the Taylor Morrison Home Corporation 2013 Omnibus Equity Award Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan was most recently amended and restated in May 2017. The Plan provides for the grant of stock options, RSUs and other equity-based awards deliverable in shares of our Common Stock. As of September 30, 2019, we had an aggregate of 6,926,110 shares of Common Stock available for future grants under the Plan.

The following table provides information regarding the amount and components of stock-based compensation expense, all of which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands):

Forfeited ⁽¹⁾	(87,032	)	18.25
Balance at September 30, 2019	1,738,149		$	18.86

⁽¹⁾Forfeitures on time-based RSUs are a result of terminations of employment, while forfeitures on performance-based RSUs are a result of failing to attain certain goals as outlined in our stock based compensation awards or termination of employment. Outstanding performance-based RSUs reflected in the table above are reported at target level of performance.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we granted time-based RSU awards and performance-based RSU awards to certain employees and members of the Board of Directors of the Company.

Our time-based RSUs consist of awards that settle in shares of Common Stock and have been awarded to our employees and members of our Board of Directors. Vesting of these RSUs is subject to continued employment with TMHC or an affiliate, or continued service on the Board of Directors, through the applicable vesting dates. Time-based RSUs granted to employees generally vest ratably over a three to four year period, based on the grant date. Time-based RSUs granted to members of the Board of Directors generally vest on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Additionally, we granted performance-based RSUs to certain employees of the Company. These awards will vest in full based on the achievement of certain performance goals over a three-year performance period, subject to the employee’s continued employment through the date the Compensation Committee certifies the applicable level of performance achieved and will be settled in shares of our Common Stock. The number of shares that may be issued in settlement of the performance-based RSUs to the award recipients may be greater or less than the target award amount depending on actual performance achieved as compared to the performance targets set forth in the awards.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds — We are committed, under various letters of credit and surety bonds, to perform certain development and construction activities and provide certain guarantees in the normal course of business. Outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds under these arrangements totaled $533.9 million and $397.2 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Although significant development and construction activities have been completed related to these site improvements, the bonds are generally not released until all development and construction activities are completed. We do not believe that it is probable that any outstanding bonds as of September 30, 2019 will be drawn upon.

Legal Proceedings — We are involved in various litigation and legal claims in the normal course of our business operations, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. We are also subject to a variety of local, state, and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, mortgage lending operations, employment practices, and protection of the environment. As a result, we are subject to periodic examination or inquiry by various governmental agencies that administer these laws and regulations. We establish liabilities for legal claims and regulatory matters when such matters are both probable of occurring and any potential loss is reasonably estimable. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our legal accruals were $7.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively. We accrue for such matters based on the facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revise these estimates as the matters evolve. In such cases, there may exist an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts currently accrued. Predicting the ultimate resolution of the pending matters, the related timing or the eventual loss associated with these matters is inherently difficult. Accordingly, the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter may exceed the estimate reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matters. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the resolution of such matters will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

17. MORTGAGE HEDGING ACTIVITIES

We enter into IRLCs to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale, at specified interest rates and within a specified period of time (generally between 30 and 60 days), with customers who have applied for a loan and meet certain credit and underwriting criteria. These IRLCs meet the definition of a derivative and are reflected on the balance sheet at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in Financial Services revenue/expenses on the statements of operations and other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains and losses on the IRLCs, reflected as derivative assets or liabilities, are measured based on the fair value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted Agency MBS prices, estimates of the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) and the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the IRLC, net of commission expense and broker fees. The fair value of the forward loan sales commitment and mandatory delivery commitments being used to hedge the IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale not committed to be purchased by investors are based on quoted Agency MBS prices.

The following summarizes derivative instrument assets (liabilities) as of the periods presented:



	As of
	September 30, 2019				December 31, 2018
(Dollars in thousands)	Fair Value		Notional Amount		Fair Value			Notional Amount
IRLCs	$	2,861	$	148,452	$	1,838		$	75,090
MBSs	42		185,000		(739		)	118,000
Total	$	2,903			$	1,099

Total commitments to originate loans approximated $163.9 million and $83.4 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. This amount represents the commitments to originate loans that have been locked and approved by underwriting. The notional amounts in the table above includes mandatory and best effort loans, that have been locked and approved by underwriting.

We have exposure to credit loss in the event of contractual non-performance by our trading counterparties in derivative instruments that we use in our rate risk management activities. We manage this credit risk by selecting only counterparties that we believe to be financially strong, spreading the risk among multiple counterparties, by placing contractual limits on the amount of unsecured credit extended to any single counterparty, and by entering into netting agreements with counterparties, as appropriate. Commitments to originate loans do not necessarily reflect future cash requirements as some commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon.

18. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

From time to time, we may engage in transactions with entities or persons that are affiliated with us. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we had no transactions with related parties.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we completed sales of our Class A Common Stock in registered public offerings, totaling 30.2 million shares. We used all of the net proceeds from these public offerings to purchase partnership units in New TMM, our direct subsidiary, along with shares of our Class B common stock, held by certain of our former principal equityholders. The aggregate number of partnership units and corresponding shares of Class B Common Stock we purchased was equal to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock sold by the Company in the public offerings. In addition, in a series of transactions following each public offering, the Company purchased a total of 7.6 million shares of Class B common stock directly from such former principal equityholders at the same respective net purchase price per share in each public offering.

19. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 1, 2019, utilizing funds borrowed from our Revolving Credit Facility, we repaid our 364-Day Credit Agreement. The total amount paid, including interest, was $200.5 million.

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report includes certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws regarding, among other things, our or management’s intentions, plans, beliefs, expectations or predictions of future events, which are considered forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on those statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business strategy. These statements often include words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “can,” “could,” “might,” “project” or similar expressions. These statements are based upon assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry, as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors that we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read this quarterly report, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report and our subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) . Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors, including those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report and our subsequent filings with the SEC, could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.

Our forward-looking statements made herein are made only as of the date of this quarterly report. We expressly disclaim any intent, obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statements made herein to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements are based, except as required by applicable law.

Business Overview

Our principal business is residential homebuilding and the development of lifestyle communities with operations in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, North and South Carolina and Texas. Our Company serves a wide array of consumer groups from coast to coast, including first time, move-up, luxury and active adult. Our homebuilding segments operate under our Taylor Morrison and Darling Homes brand names. Our business is organized into multiple homebuilding operating components, and a financial services component, all of which are managed as four reportable segments: East, Central, West and Financial Services, as follows:



East		Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Jacksonville, Orlando, Raleigh, Southwest Florida, and Tampa
Central		Austin, Dallas, Denver, and Houston
West		Bay Area, Phoenix, Sacramento and Southern California
Financial Services		TMHF and Inspired Title

We offer single and multi-family attached and detached homes, and revenue is recognized when the homes are completed and delivered to the buyers. Our primary costs are the acquisition of land in various stages of development and the construction costs of the homes we sell.

Our Financial Services reportable segment provides our customers with mortgage services through our wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, TMHF, and title services through our wholly owned title services subsidiary, Inspired Title. Revenues from loan origination are recognized at the time the related real estate transactions are completed, usually upon the close of escrow.

Factors Affecting Comparability of Results

Table of Contents

The Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report. The primary factor that affects the comparability of our results of operations is the acquisition of AV Homes. The acquisition of AV Homes resulted in transaction expenses which are presented in Transaction expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations as well as impacts of purchase accounting which are included in Cost of home closings in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As a result of the redemption of our 2021 and 2022 Senior Notes, we recorded loss on extinguishment of debt which included the write off of unamortized fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. In 2018, we experienced a lower effective tax rate as a result of certain changes in tax accounting methods.

Recent Developments

On October 1, 2019 we repaid our $200.0 million 364-Day Credit Agreement which was entered into on October 2, 2018 for the acquisition of AV Homes. The total amount paid, including interest, was $200.5 million.

Third Quarter 2019 Highlights:


•	Net sales orders were 2,540, a 39% increase over the prior year quarter


•	Average monthly sales pace per community was 2.4, compared to 2.2 for the prior year quarter


•	Home closings were 2,296, a 9% increase over the prior year quarter


•	Total revenue was $1.1 billion, a 7% increase over the prior year quarter


•	GAAP home closings gross margin was 18.5%


•	SG&A as a percent of home closings revenue was 11.1%


•	Net income was $67 million with diluted earnings per share of $0.63

Average active selling communities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018 increased by 24.7% primarily due to the acquisition of AV Homes in the fourth quarter of 2018, resulting in additional communities across all reporting regions with the largest concentration in the East.

⁽¹⁾Net sales orders and sales value represent the number and dollar value, respectively, of new sales contracts executed with customers, net of cancellations.

East:

The number of net sales orders increased by 63.5% and 38.7%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. Additional active selling communities resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes in the fourth quarter of 2018 were the primary contributor to the increase in net sales orders. The average selling price of net sales orders decreased 2.0% and 3.3%, respectively, for the same comparative periods. Product and geographical mix primarily resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes contributed to the decrease in average selling prices.

Central:

The number of net sales orders increased by 23.0% and 8.0%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. Our Dallas market contributed to the increase for both periods primarily as a result of additional active selling communities resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes in the fourth quarter of 2018. Product and geographical mix contributed to the relatively flat average selling price compared to the same periods in the prior year.

West:

The number of net sales orders increased by 25.3% and 9.7%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. Additional active selling communities resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes and higher average sales pace in these communities were the primary contributors to the increase in net sales orders. The average selling price of net sales orders decreased 13.6% and 14.2%, respectively, for the same comparative periods. Product and geographical mix among all the divisions within the region contributed to the decrease in average selling price of net sales orders.

Sales Order Cancellations



	Cancellation Rate⁽¹⁾

West	11.0		17.5		13.3		11.6
Total Company	11.8	%	13.6	%	12.4	%	11.0	%

⁽¹⁾Cancellation rate represents the number of canceled sales orders divided by gross sales orders.

The total company cancellation rate increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year. The volatility in the mortgage rate environment, especially during the first quarter of 2019, was the primary cause of the increase across all regions. However, the total company cancellation rate decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year, as a result of stabilization in the mortgage rates.

⁽¹⁾ Sales order backlog represents homes under contract for which revenue has not yet been recognized at the end of the period (including homes sold but not yet started). Some of the contracts in our sales order backlog are subject to contingencies including mortgage loan approval and buyers selling their existing homes, which can result in cancellations.

Total backlog units and total sales value increased by 19.0% and 8.3% at September 30, 2019, respectively, compared to September 30, 2018. The increase in backlog units and dollars is primarily a result of increased active selling communities resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes as well as organic growth.

East:

The number of homes closed increased by 8.0% and 21.2%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. Home closings revenue, net increased 10.6% and 21.8%, respectively, for the same comparative periods. The increase in both units and dollars is primarily due to the increase in active selling communities resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Central:

The number of homes closed increased by 9.9% and 18.2%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. Home closing revenue, net increased 13.5% and 18.4%, respectively, for the same comparative periods. The increase in both units and dollars was partially a result of our Houston market experiencing increased housing demand as well as the acquisition of AV Homes contributing to an increase in the number of communities and an increase in home closings in the Dallas market in the current year period compared to the prior year period.

West:

The number of homes closed increased by 8.1% and 23.0%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in units is primarily due to the increase in active selling communities resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes as well as increased demand from certain California markets. Home closings revenue, net decreased 5.7% and increased 14.9%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in home closings revenue, net for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily due to product mix with lower average selling prices in our Southern California market, whereas overall demand in the majority of our markets contributed to the increase in home closings revenue, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in the prior year.

We generally purchase land and lots with the intent to build and sell homes. However, in some locations where we act as a

developer, we occasionally purchase land that includes commercially zoned parcels or areas designated for school or

government use, which we typically sell to commercial developers or municipalities, as applicable. We also sell residential lots

or land parcels to manage our land and lot supply on larger tracts of land. As a developer, we may include land sales in our

underwriting strategies in many of our master plan communities where we may mitigate risk, enhance our returns or pursue

opportunities allowing access to new land positions. Land and lot sales occur at various intervals and varying degrees of

profitability. Therefore, the revenue and gross margin from land closings will fluctuate from period to period, depending upon

market opportunities. The decrease in land closings revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 in the West region is due to the sale of certain long-term strategic assets in the prior year.

As the result of the acquisition of AV Homes, our East region includes communities that operate amenities such as golf courses, club houses, and fitness centers. We provide club members access to the amenity facilities and other services in exchange for club dues and fees. We do not currently own or operate significant amenity facilities in our Central or West regions.

The primary driver for these decreases was product mix primarily resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes. These decreases were partially offset by lower discounts.

Central:

Home closings gross margin percentage increased to 18.2% from 17.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and decreased to 17.3% from 17.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Table of Contents

The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily driven by an increase in demand in the majority of our Central region's markets. The primary driver for the decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was product mix resulting from the acquisition of AV Homes. This decrease was partially offset by lower discounts.

West:

Home closings gross margin percentage decreased to 20.8% from 21.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and increased to 21.1% from 19.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The primary drivers for the fluctuations in both periods were product and geographical mix changes and lower discounts in our California markets.

Financial services revenue increased by 36.5% and 30.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in financial services revenue is due to increased closings primarily due to the acquisition of AV Homes.

Sales, Commissions and Other Marketing Costs

Table of Contents

Sales, commissions and other marketing costs, as a percentage of home closings revenue, net, increased to 7.2% from 6.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and to 7.1% from 6.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018. The increase was primarily driven by increased advertising expenses due to increased community count as a result of newly acquired AV Homes' divisions. Our new communities typically have higher sales and marketing costs during their earlier stages of sales due to various start up costs.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses as a percentage of home closings revenue, net, increased to 3.9% from 3.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and remained flat at 3.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in the prior year. We continue our efforts to utilize our scalable platform, including from our AV Homes operations, providing leverage with existing infrastructure to maintain stable operating costs.

Equity in Income of Unconsolidated Entities

Equity in income of unconsolidated entities was $2.1 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $8.0 million and $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decreases were primarily due to several of our joint ventures being in their close out stage with less product availability during 2019 compared to 2018.

Interest Income, Net

Interest income, net was $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $2.3 million and $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Interest income, net includes interest earned on cash balances offset by interest incurred but not capitalized on our long-term debt and other borrowings.

Other Income/Expense, Net

Other income/expense, net was $0.4 million and $0.8 million in expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Other income/expense, net was $1.5 million in income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to an expense of $4.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is a result of insurance recoveries for losses incurred from previous years' hurricanes.

Transaction Expenses

Transaction expenses were $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $6.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Transaction expenses consisted of acquisition related costs, related to the acquisition of AV Homes, which include compensation, legal fees, and other various integration costs.

Income Tax Provision

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was 25.9% and 25.4%, respectively, compared to 6.4% and 15.9% for the same periods in 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was based on the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and was affected primarily by state income taxes and non-deductible executive compensation, uncertain tax positions, and discrete tax adjustments related to certain deferred tax assets and liabilities. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflected the effects from tax accounting method changes affirmatively accepted by the IRS in response to the Tax Act and our adjustments to the provisional tax expense from completing our calculations of the transition tax as a result of the Tax Act and finalizing our 2017 U.S. federal income tax returns.

Net Income

Net income and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $67.0 million and $0.63, respectively. Net income and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $94.4 million and $0.83, respectively. The decreases in net income and earnings per share from the prior year are attributable to lower homebuilding gross margin and loss on extinguishment of debt in 2019. In addition, in 2018 we experienced a lower effective tax rate during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 which was impacted by adjustments to our existing deferred tax assets resulting from tax accounting method changes affirmatively accepted by the IRS in response to the Tax Act

Table of Contents

and our adjustments to the provisional tax expense from completing our calculations of the transition tax and finalizing our U.S. federal income tax returns.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We finance our operations through the following:


•	Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility;


•	Our various series of Senior Notes;


•	Mortgage warehouse facilities;


•	Project-level real estate financing (including non-recourse loans);


•	Performance, payment and completion surety bonds, and letters of credit; and


•	Cash generated from operations.

We believe that we can fund our current and foreseeable liquidity needs for the next 12 months from:


•	Cash generated from operations; and


•	Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.

We may also access the capital markets to obtain additional liquidity through debt and equity offerings on an opportunistic basis. Generally, our principal uses of capital relate to land purchases, lot development, home construction, operating expenses, payment of debt service, income taxes, investments in joint ventures, stock repurchases, and the payment of various liabilities.

Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the status of the development cycle and can differ substantially from reported earnings. Early stages of development or expansion require significant cash expenditures for land acquisitions, on and off-site development, construction of model homes, general landscaping and other amenities. Because these costs are a component of our inventory and are not recognized in our statement of operations until a home closes, we incur significant cash outflows prior to recognition of earnings.

The table below summarizes our total cash and liquidity as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

Cash Flow Activities

Operating Cash Flow Activities

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $153.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $56.0 million provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The primary drivers of the increase in cash provided by operating activities compared to the same period in the prior year was less spend on real estate

Table of Contents

inventory and land deposits and an increase accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities. Such changes were partially offset by a smaller increase in customer deposits.

Investing Cash Flow Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $4.3 million provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. We increased spending on property and equipment in 2019, offset by higher net distributions from joint ventures, compared to the same period in 2018.

Financing Cash Flow Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $254.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $252.4 million used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The cash used in financing activities during 2019 was primarily for net repayments of debt and Common Stock repurchases, partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of Senior Notes. The cash used in financing activities in 2018 was primarily attributable to net debt repayments and repurchases of partnership units in our subsidiary from our former principal equityholders as part of our public equity offerings completed in January.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements as of September 30, 2019

Investments in Land Development and Homebuilding Joint Ventures or Unconsolidated Entities

We participate in strategic land development and homebuilding joint ventures with related and unrelated third parties. Our participation in these entities, in some instances, enables us to acquire land to which we could not otherwise obtain access, or could not obtain access on terms that are as favorable. Our partners in these joint ventures historically have been land owners/developers, other homebuilders and financial or strategic partners. Joint ventures with land owners/developers have given us access to sites owned or controlled by our partners. Joint ventures with other homebuilders have provided us with the ability to bid jointly with our partners for large or expensive land parcels. Joint ventures with financial partners have allowed us to combine our homebuilding expertise with access to our partners’ capital.

In certain of our unconsolidated joint ventures, we enter into loan agreements, whereby we or one of our subsidiaries will provide the lenders with customary guarantees, including completion, indemnity and environmental guarantees subject to usual non-recourse terms.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, total cash invested in unconsolidated joint ventures was $10.2 million.

Land Purchase and Land Option Contracts

Table of Contents

We enter into land purchase and option contracts to procure land or lots for the construction of homes in the ordinary course of business. Lot option contracts enable us to control significant lot positions with a minimal initial capital investment and substantially reduce the risks associated with land ownership and development. As of September 30, 2019, we had outstanding land purchase and lot option contracts of $300.3 million. We are obligated to close the transaction under our land purchase contracts. However, our obligations with respect to the option contracts are generally limited to the forfeiture of the related non-refundable cash deposits and/or letters of credit provided to obtain the options. At September 30, 2019, we had non-refundable deposits totaling $41.8 million.

Seasonality

Our business is seasonal. We have historically experienced, and in the future expect to continue to experience, variability in our results on a quarterly basis. We generally have more homes under construction, close more homes and have greater revenues and operating income in the third and fourth quarters of the year. Therefore, although new home contracts are obtained throughout the year, a higher portion of our home closings occur during the third and fourth calendar quarters. Our revenue therefore may fluctuate significantly on a quarterly basis, and we must maintain sufficient liquidity to meet short-term operating requirements. Factors expected to contribute to these fluctuations include:


•	the timing of the introduction and start of construction of new projects;


•	the timing of project sales;


•	the timing of closings of homes, lots and parcels;


•	the timing of receipt of regulatory approvals for development and construction;


•	the condition of the real estate market and general economic conditions in the areas in which we operate;


•	mix of homes closed;


•	construction timetables;


•	the prevailing interest rates and the availability of financing, both for us and for the purchasers of our homes;


•	the cost and availability of materials and labor; and


•	weather conditions in the markets in which we build.

As a result of seasonal activity, our quarterly results of operations and financial position are not necessarily representative of the results we expect for the full year.

Inflation

We and the homebuilding industry in general may be adversely affected during periods of high inflation, primarily because of higher land, financing, labor and construction material costs. In addition, higher mortgage interest rates can significantly affect the affordability of mortgage financing to prospective homebuyers. We attempt to pass through to our customers increases in our costs through increased sales prices. However, during periods of soft housing market conditions, we may not be able to offset our cost increases with higher selling prices.

Critical Accounting Policies -

In January 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which provides new guidance for lease recognition and elected to use the modified retrospective approach to account for prior periods. Refer to Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for additional discussion. There have been no other significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to those we disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Our operations are interest rate sensitive. We monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates and incur both fixed rate and variable rate debt. At September 30, 2019, approximately 88% of our debt was fixed rate and 12% was variable rate. None of our market sensitive instruments were entered into for trading purposes. 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 impact the fair value of the debt instrument but may affect our future earnings and cash flows, and may also impact our variable rate borrowing costs, which principally relate to any borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, 364-Day Credit Agreement, and borrowings by TMHF under its various warehouse facilities. As of September 30, 2019, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and $200.0 million outstanding borrowings under our 364-Day Credit Agreement. Refer to Note 19 - Subsequent Events for discussion regarding the repayment of the 364-Day Credit Agreement. We had $517.4 million of additional availability for borrowings including, $77.4 million of additional availability for letters of credit under our Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2019 (giving effect to $82.6 million of letters of credit outstanding as of such date). We are required to offer to purchase all of our outstanding Senior Notes at 101% of their aggregate principal amount upon the occurrence of specified change of control events. Other than in those circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed rate debt prior to maturity and, as a result, we would not expect interest rate risk and changes in fair value to have a significant impact on our cash flows related to our fixed rate debt until such time as we are required to refinance, repurchase or repay such debt.

The following table sets forth principal cash flows by scheduled maturity and effective weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of September 30, 2019. The interest rate for our variable rate debt represents the interest rate on our borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, 364-Day Credit Agreement, and mortgage warehouse facilities. Because the mortgage warehouse facilities are secured by certain mortgage loans held for sale which are typically sold within approximately 20 - 30 days, its outstanding balance is included as a variable rate maturity in the most current period presented.



	Expected Maturity Date																					Fair Value
(In millions, except percentage data)	2019			2020			2021			2022			2023			Thereafter			Total			Fair Value
Fixed Rate Debt	$	57.4		$	50.0		$	46.5		$	15.7		$	374.5		$	1,331.1		$	1,875.2		$	2,001.1
Weighted average interest rate⁽¹⁾	2.4		%	2.4		%	2.4		%	2.4		%	5.6		%	5.7		%	5.4		%
Variable Rate Debt⁽²⁾	$	256.1		$	—		$	—		$	—		$	—		$	—		$	256.1		$	256.1
Weighted average interest rate	3.9		%	—			—			—			—			—			3.9		%

⁽¹⁾ Represents the coupon rate of interest on the full principal amount of the debt.

⁽²⁾ Based upon the amount of variable rate debt outstanding at September 30, 2019, and holding the variable rate debt balance constant, each 1% increase in interest rates would increase the interest incurred by us by approximately $2.6 million per year.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s 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”)), as of September 30, 2019. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2019, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level. Management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting for AV Homes, which was acquired on October 2, 2018, and represented 9.4% of the Company's consolidated total assets (excluding capitalized interest, inclusive of goodwill) and 15.4% of the Company's consolidated homebuilding revenues as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in various litigation and legal claims in the normal course of our business operations, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. We are also subject to a variety of local, state, and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, mortgage lending operations, employment practices, and protection of the environment. As a result, we are subject to periodic examination or inquiry by various governmental agencies that administer these laws and regulations. We establish liabilities for legal claims and regulatory matters when such matters are both probable of occurring and any potential loss is reasonably estimable. We accrue for such matters based on the facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revise these estimates as the matters evolve. In such cases, there may exist an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts currently accrued. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of these legal and regulatory matters, we generally cannot predict the ultimate resolution of the pending matters, the related timing or the eventual loss. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the resolution of such matters will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. However, to the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds the estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matter, we could incur additional charges that could be significant.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report. These risk factors may materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report and the other information set forth elsewhere in this quarterly report. You should be aware that these risk factors and other information may not describe every risk facing our Company.
