NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS

Description of the BusinessTaylor 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 land developer. We operate in the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Nevada, North and South Carolina, Oregon, Texas, and Washington. We provide an assortment of homes across a wide range of price points to appeal to an array of consumer groups. We design, build and sell single and multi-family detached and attached homes in traditionally high growth markets for entry level, move-up, and 55-plus active lifestyle buyers. We are the general contractors for all real estate projects and retain subcontractors for home construction and land development. Our homebuilding segments operate under our Taylor Morrison, Darling Homes Collection by Taylor Morrison, and Esplanade brand names. We also have a “Build-to-Rent” homebuilding business which operates under the Yardly brand name. In addition, we develop and construct multi-use properties consisting of commercial space, retail, and multi-family properties under the Urban Form brand. We also have operations which provide financial services to customers through our wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, Taylor Morrison Home Funding, INC (“TMHF”), title services through our wholly owned title services subsidiary, Inspired Title Services, LLC (“Inspired Title”), and homeowner’s insurance policies through our wholly owned insurance agency, Taylor Morrison Insurance Services, LLC (“TMIS”). 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.

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.

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” on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The equity from the percentage of the joint ventures not owned by us is presented as “Non-controlling interests” on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. The balance of Non-Controlling interests will fluctuate from period to period as a result of activities within the respective joint ventures which may include the allocation of income or losses, distributions or contributions associated with the partners within the joint venture.

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 unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and these accompanying notes. Significant estimates include real estate development costs to complete, valuation of real estate, valuation of acquired assets, valuation of goodwill, valuation of development liabilities, 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 home closings at the time of home closing using the specific identification method. Land acquisition, development, interest, and real estate taxes are allocated to homes and units generally using the relative sales value method. Generally, all overhead costs relating to purchasing, vertical construction of a home, and construction utilities are considered overhead costs and allocated on a per unit basis. 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.

The life cycle of a typical community generally ranges from two to five years, commencing with the acquisition of unentitled or entitled land, continuing through the land development phase and concluding with the sale, construction and delivery of homes. Actual

community duration will vary based on the size of the community, the sales absorption rate and whether we purchased the property as raw land or as finished lots.

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

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 on a community-level basis during each reporting period. If indicators of impairment are present for a community, an undiscounted cash flow analysis is generally prepared in order to determine if the carrying value of the assets in that community exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows. Generally, if the carrying value of the assets exceeds their estimated undiscounted cash flows, the assets are potentially impaired, requiring a fair value analysis. 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. However, fair value can be determined through other methods, such as appraisals, contractual purchase offers, and other third party opinions of value. 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 months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, 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. 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. In addition, 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 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 March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no inactive projects.

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various option agreements to acquire lots in staged takedowns which may require a significant cash deposit. We are not legally obligated to purchase the balance of the lots, but would forfeit any existing deposits and could be subject to financial and other penalties if the lots are not purchased. Real estate not owned under these agreements is reflected in Consolidated real estate not owned with a corresponding liability in Liabilities attributable to consolidated real estate not owned in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Land held for sale — 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. Land is considered held for sale once management intends to actively sell a parcel within the next 12 months or the parcel is under contract to sell. Land held for sale is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. In determining the value of land held for sale, we consider recent offers received, prices for land in recent comparable sales transactions, and other factors. We record fair value adjustments for land held for sale within Cost of land closings on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Land banking arrangements — We have land purchase agreements with various land sellers. As a method of acquiring land in staged takedowns, while limiting risk and minimizing the use of funds from our available cash or other financing sources, we may transfer our right under certain specific performance agreements to entities owned by third parties (“land banking arrangements”). These entities use equity contributions from their owners and/or incur debt to finance the acquisition and development of the land. The entities grant us an option to acquire lots in staged takedowns. In consideration for this option, we make a non-refundable deposit. We are not legally obligated to purchase the balance of the lots, but would forfeit any existing deposits and could be subject to financial and other penalties if the lots were not purchased. We do not have an ownership interest in these entities or title to their assets and do not guarantee their liabilities. These land banking arrangements help us manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings which are not included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Investments in Consolidated and Unconsolidated Entities

Consolidated Entities — In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land purchase contracts, lot option contracts and land banking arrangements in order to procure land or lots for the construction of homes. Such contracts enable us to control significant lot positions with a minimal initial capital investment and substantially reduce the risk associated with land ownership and development. In accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, when we enter into agreements to acquire land or lots and pay a non-refundable deposit, we evaluate if a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) should be created if we are deemed to have provided subordinated financial support that will absorb some or all of an entity’s expected losses if they occur. If we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE, we

TAYLOR MORRISON HOME CORPORATION 10-Q

Table of Contents

ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

consolidate the VIE and reflect such assets and liabilities as Consolidated real estate not owned and Liabilities attributable to consolidated real estate not owned, respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures — We use the equity method of accounting for entities which we exercise significant influence but do not have a controlling interest over the operating and financial policies of the investee. For unconsolidated entities in which we function as the managing member, we have evaluated the rights held by our joint venture partners and determined that the partners have substantive participating rights that preclude the presumption of control. Our share of net earnings or losses is included in Net income/loss from unconsolidated entities on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations when earned and distributions are credited against our Investments in unconsolidated entities on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets when received.

We evaluate our investments in unconsolidated entities for indicators of impairment semi-annually. 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, if any, 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, intent and ability for us to recover our investment in the entity, financial condition and long-term prospects of the 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 we believe that the decline in the fair value of the investment is temporary, then no impairment is recorded. We recorded no material impairment charges related to the investments in unconsolidated entities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Revenue Recognition — Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“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 home closings revenue and land closings revenue recognition: (1) identify the contract(s) with our customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligation(s) are satisfied. Our home sales transactions, 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 the recognition of home and land sales revenue:

Revenue from closings of residential real estate is recognized when 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, if any, 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 such as golf courses, club houses, and fitness centers, which require us to provide club members with access to the facilities in exchange for the payment of club dues. We collect club dues and other fees from club members, which are invoiced on a monthly basis. Revenue from our golf club operations is also included in amenity and other revenue. Amenity and other revenue also includes revenue from the sale of assets from our Urban Form operations and Build-to-Rent operations.

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, which is 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, and based on the difference between the selling price and carrying value of the related loans upon sale, record a gain/loss on sale in the period of sale. Also included in Financial services revenue/expenses are realized and unrealized gains and losses from hedging instruments. ASC Topic 815-25, Derivatives and Hedging, requires that all hedging instruments be recognized as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at their fair value. We do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting; therefore, we account for these instruments as free-standing derivatives, with changes in fair value recognized in Financial services revenue/expenses on the statement of operations in the period in which they occur.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to TMHC by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to the potential dilution that could occur if all outstanding dilutive equity awards to issue shares of Common Stock were exercised or settled.

The following is a summary of the components of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The remaining book value of land and development relates to parcels of commercial assets which are. excluded from the owned lots presented in the table.

Undeveloped lots are those where no phase specific development work has commenced. Under development lots include land where phase specific development has commenced. Finished lots are fully developed. This classification allows for multi-phase or master planned communities to be presented in more than one lot status based on their development.

We have land option purchase contracts, land banking arrangements and other controlled lot agreements. We do not have title to the properties, and the property owner and its creditors generally only have recourse against us in the form of retaining any non-refundable deposits. We are also not legally obligated to purchase the balance of the lots. Deposits related to these lots are capitalized when paid and classified as Land deposits until the associated property is purchased.

5. INVESTMENTS IN CONSOLIDATED AND UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

Unconsolidated Entities

We have investments in a number of joint ventures with third parties. These entities are generally involved in real estate development, homebuilding, Build-to-Rent, and/or mortgage lending activities. The primary activity of the real estate development joint ventures is development and sale of lots to joint venture partners and/or unrelated builders. Our share of the joint venture profit relating to lots we purchase from the joint ventures is deferred until homes are delivered by us and title passes to a homebuyer.

Consolidated Entities

We have several joint ventures for the purpose of real estate development and homebuilding activities, which we have determined to be VIEs. As the managing member, we oversee the daily operations and have the power to direct the activities of the VIEs, or joint ventures. For this specific subset of joint ventures, based upon the allocation of income and loss per the applicable joint venture agreements and certain performance guarantees, we have potentially significant exposure to the risks and rewards of the joint ventures. Therefore, we are the primary beneficiary of these joint venture VIEs, and the entities are consolidated.

As of March 31, 2023, the assets of the consolidated joint ventures totaled $277.2 million, of which $31.3 million was cash and cash equivalents, $72.4 million was owned inventory and $123.3 million was fixed assets (primarily related to Urban Form). The majority of the fixed asset balance is held for sale as of March 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, the assets of the consolidated joint ventures totaled $277.6 million, of which $38.9 million was cash and cash equivalents, $72.0 million was owned inventory and $123.2 million was fixed assets. The liabilities of the consolidated joint ventures totaled $154.1 million and $155.5 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and were primarily comprised of notes payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Debt Instruments

Excluding the debt instruments discussed below, the terms governing all other debt instruments listed in the table above have not substantially changed from the year ended December 31, 2022. For information regarding such instruments, refer to Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report. As of March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all of the covenants in the debt instruments listed in the table above.

$1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility

Our $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility has a maturity date of March 11, 2027. We had no outstanding borrowings under our $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $3.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs relating to our $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility, which are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets, net, on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $70.2 million and $69.2 million, respectively, of utilized letters of credit, resulting in $929.8 million and $930.8 million, respectively, of availability under the $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility.

The $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility contains certain “springing” financial covenants, requiring us and our subsidiaries to comply with a maximum debt to capitalization ratio of not more than 0.60 to 1.00 and a minimum consolidated tangible net worth level, currently of at least $3.0 billion. The financial covenants would be in effect for any fiscal quarter during which any (a) loans under the $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility are outstanding during the last day of such fiscal quarter or on more than five separate days during such fiscal

quarter or (b) undrawn letters of credit (except to the extent cash collateralized) issued under the $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount greater than $40.0 million or unreimbursed letters of credit issued under the $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility are outstanding on the last day of such fiscal quarter or for more than five consecutive days during such fiscal quarter. For purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants for any fiscal quarter, the $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility provides that we may exercise an equity cure by issuing certain permitted securities for cash or otherwise recording cash contributions to our capital that will, upon the contribution of such cash to the borrower, be included in the calculation of consolidated tangible net worth and consolidated total capitalization. The equity cure right is exercisable up to twice in any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters and up to five times overall.

The $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility contains certain restrictive covenants including limitations on incurrence of liens, the payment of dividends and other distributions, asset dispositions and investments in entities that are not guarantors, limitations on prepayment of subordinated indebtedness and limitations on fundamental changes. The $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default, subject to applicable grace periods, including for nonpayment of principal, interest or other amounts, violation of covenants (including financial covenants, subject to the exercise of an equity cure), incorrectness of representations and warranties in any material respect, cross default and cross acceleration, bankruptcy, material monetary judgments, ERISA events with material adverse effect, actual or asserted invalidity of material guarantees and change of control.

As of March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under the $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility.

The mortgage warehouse borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were collateralized by $186.2 million and $346.4 million, respectively, of mortgage loans held for sale, which comprise the balance of mortgage loans held for sale, and approximately $6.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of restricted cash on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Loans Payable and Other Borrowings

Loans payable and other borrowings as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 consist of project-level debt due to various land sellers and financial institutions for specific projects. Project-level debt is generally secured by the land that was acquired and the principal payments generally coincide with corresponding project lot closings or a principal reduction schedule. Loans payable bear interest at rates that ranged from 0% to 9% and 0% to 8% at each of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We impute interest for loans with no stated interest rates.

8. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

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.

TAYLOR MORRISON HOME CORPORATION 10-Q

13


Table of Contents

ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

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 and liabilities 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 loans, 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, and the borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facilities 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. The fair value of our Equity Security Investment in a public company is based upon quoted prices for identical assets in an active market. There were no changes to or transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of our financial instruments as of March 31, 2023, when compared to December 31, 2022.

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

9. INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 23.0%, compared to 23.4% for the same period in 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes, non-deductible executive compensation, and special deductions and credits relating to homebuilding activities.

At both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company repurchased 109,325 and 1,948,187 shares under the share repurchase program during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The Inflation Reduction Act was enacted on August 16, 2022 and includes an excise tax on the net repurchase of company stock. This act was effective as of January 1, 2023 and did not have a material impact on our financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. We will continue to assess the impact it may have on our financial results.

 

 

11. 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 2022. The Plan provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), and other equity-based awards deliverable in shares of our Common Stock. As of March 31, 2023, we had an aggregate of 4,998,916 shares of Common Stock available for future grants under the Plan.

ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

13. 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 $1.3 billion as of March 31, 2023 and $1.2 billion as of December 31, 2022. 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 March 31, 2023 will be drawn upon.

Purchase Commitments —We are subject to the usual obligations associated with entering into contracts (including land option contracts and land banking arrangements) for the purchase, development, and sale of real estate in the routine conduct of our business. We have a number of land purchase option contracts and land banking agreements, generally through cash deposits, for the right to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. We do not have title to the property and the property owner and its creditors generally have no recourse. Our obligations with respect to such contracts are generally limited to the forfeiture of the related non-refundable cash deposits. At both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the aggregate purchase price for these land option contracts and land banking arrangements was $1.5 billion.

Legal Proceedings — We are involved in various litigation and legal claims in the normal course of business, 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 can be reasonably estimated. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our legal accruals were $17.5 million and $20.6 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 matter. 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.

On April 26, 2017, a class action complaint was filed in the Circuit Court of the Tenth Judicial Circuit in and for Polk County, Florida by Norman Gundel, William Mann, and Brenda Taylor against Avatar Properties, Inc. (an acquired AV Homes entity), generally alleging that our collection of club membership fees in connection with the use of one of our amenities in our East homebuilding segment violates various laws relating to homeowner associations and other Florida-specific laws. The class action complaint seeks an injunction to prohibit future collection of club membership fees. On November 2, 2021, the court determined that the club membership fees were improper and that plaintiffs were entitled to $35.0 million in fee reimbursements. We appealed the court’s ruling to the Second District Court of Appeal on November 29, 2021, and as of March 31, 2023, our appeal remained pending. Subsequent to March 31, 2023, oral arguments have been scheduled for May 2023.

Plaintiffs have agreed to continue to pay club membership fees pending the outcome of the appeal. We believe, based on our assessment and the opinion of external legal counsel, that the court’s legal interpretation constitutes legal error and the court incorrectly ruled on this matter. In accordance with ASC Topic 450, Contingencies, we evaluated the range of loss and the likelihood of each potential amount of loss within the range.

While the ultimate outcome and the costs associated with litigation are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict, in evaluating the potential outcomes, we believe the more likely outcome is that we win the appeal. This belief is based on our review of the legal merit of the judgement, as well as the opinion of external legal counsel. Accordingly, in assessing the range of possible loss, we believe the more likely outcome is that we win on appeal and will have zero liability.

Leases — Our leases primarily consist of office space, construction trailers, model home leasebacks, a ground lease, equipment, and storage units. We assess each of these contracts to determine whether the arrangement contains a lease as defined by ASC 842, Leases. Lease obligations were $92.9 million and $100.2 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We recorded lease expense of approximately $7.1 million and $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, within General and administrative expenses on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Total commitments to originate loans approximated $496.5 million and $419.6 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 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, placing contractual limits on the amount of unsecured credit extended to any single counterparty, and 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.

For purposes of this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the terms “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Taylor Morrison Home Corporation (“TMHC”) and its subsidiaries. The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report.

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report includes certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws regarding, among other things, our 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 and operations 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 Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“Annual Report”) and in 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 and currently available information, you should be aware that many factors, including those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report and in 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.

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we provide our investors with supplemental information relating to: (i) adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per common share, (ii) adjusted income before income taxes and related margin, (iii) adjusted home closings gross margin; (iv) EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and (v) net homebuilding debt to capitalization ratio.

Adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per common share and adjusted income before income taxes and related margin are non-GAAP financial measures that reflect the net income/(loss) available to the Company excluding, to the extent applicable in a given period, the impact of inventory impairment charges, impairment of investment in unconsolidated entities, pre-acquisition abandonment charges, gains on land transfers and extinguishment of debt, net, and in the case of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per common share, the tax impact due to such items. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that measure performance by adjusting net income before allocation to non-controlling interests to exclude, as applicable, interest expense/(income), net, amortization of capitalized interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), non-cash compensation expense, if any, inventory impairment charges, impairment of investment in unconsolidated entities, pre-acquisition abandonment charges, gains

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

 

on land transfers and extinguishment of debt, net. Net homebuilding debt to capitalization ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure we calculate by dividing (i) total debt, plus unamortized debt issuance cost/(premium), net, and less mortgage warehouse borrowings, net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, by (ii) total capitalization (the sum of net homebuilding debt and total stockholders’ equity). Adjusted home closings gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure based on GAAP home closings gross margin (which is inclusive of capitalized interest), excluding inventory impairment charges.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our performance on a consolidated basis, as well as the performance of our regions, and to set targets for performance-based compensation. We also use the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capitalization as an indicator of overall leverage and to evaluate our performance against other companies in the homebuilding industry. In the future, we may include additional adjustments in the above-described non-GAAP financial measures to the extent we deem them appropriate and useful to management and investors.

 

We believe that adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per common share, adjusted income before income taxes and related margin, as well as EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, are useful for investors in order to allow them to evaluate our operations without the effects of various items we do not believe are characteristic of our ongoing operations or performance and also because such metrics assist both investors and management in analyzing and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. Adjusted EBITDA also provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, or unusual items. Because we use the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capitalization to evaluate our performance against other companies in the homebuilding industry, we believe this measure is also relevant and useful to investors for that reason. We believe that adjusted home closings gross margin is useful to investors because it allows investors to

evaluate the performance of our homebuilding operations without the varying effects of items or transactions we do not believe are

characteristic of our ongoing operations or performance.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, the comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures of our operating performance or liquidity. Although other companies in the homebuilding industry may report similar information, their definitions may differ. We urge investors to understand the methods used by other companies to calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures before comparing their measures to ours.

A reconciliation of (i) EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and (ii) net homebuilding debt to capitalization ratio to the comparable GAAP measures is presented below. Because the company did not experience any material adjustments applicable to (i) adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per common share; (ii) adjusted income before income taxes and related margin; or (iii) adjusted home closings gross margin during the periods presented that would cause such measures to differ from the comparable GAAP measures, such measures have not been separately presented herein.

Three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to three months ended March 31, 2022

The results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were impacted by various macro economic conditions. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were benefited from the increased housing demand and significant price appreciation which began in the second half of 2020, whereas the results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were negatively impacted by reduced demand for housing. We believe the shift in housing demand has been driven by a rapid increase in mortgage interest rates, which followed significant home inflation in 2020 and 2021. Higher housing costs, as well as the speed of change in mortgage interest rates caused by the Federal Reserve’s actions to slow inflation, created affordability constraints for some consumers and reduced overall consumer confidence. This resulted in a reduction in net sales orders, as well as an increase in cancellations. In response, we began to adjust pricing, primarily by offering finance incentives, as well as discounts and other net pricing reductions. These pricing adjustments helped to drive an increase in gross sales orders and a gradual normalization in cancellations beginning in the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Because of enhanced operational efficiencies and the balanced mix of our sales between to-be-built and spec home sales, we have maintained a strong home closings gross margin even after reducing net pricing.Operational information related to each period is presented below:

The East and Central regions experienced community close outs which were not more than offset by new community openings.

Net sales orders and sales value decreased by 6.5% and 14.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, respectively. We believe the decreases were primarily the result of the change in economic conditions and home buyer apprehensions due to rising mortgage interest rates over the past year. In addition, the decrease in average selling price is a result of an increase in our pricing incentives and/or discounts in certain markets which caused the overall average selling price to decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

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

 

The total company cancellation rate increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in cancellations is due primarily to increases in mortgage interest rates and buyer apprehensions given elevated macroeconomic uncertainty and affordability constraints for some consumers.

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 sold homes in backlog and total sales value decreased by 33.3% and 31.6% at March 31, 2023 compared to March 31, 2022, respectively. The decrease in sold homes in backlog is primarily the result of a decrease in net sales as well as an increase in cancellations. The average selling price of homes in backlog increased by 2.6% as a result of sales price appreciation over the past year, but is partially offset by the pricing incentives and/or discounts we began offering in the latter half of 2022.

The number of homes closed and homes closing revenue, net decreased by 8.2% and 1.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year, respectively. The decrease in the number of homes closed is primarily due to less sales order backlog and an increase in cancellations in the current year period compared to the prior year period. Average selling price increased by 6.9% as a result of sales price appreciation which partially offset the impact of the decrease of home closings revenue, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, 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. 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 and our land management strategy. The land closings revenue in the East for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was due to the sale of certain commercial assets as well as the sale of residential lots in our Florida market.

Home closings gross margin increased 80 basis points to 23.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 23.1% in the comparable prior year period. We maintained an overall strong margin as a result of our mix of between to-be-built and spec home closings. The East and Central regions experienced price appreciation over the past several quarters which resulted in an increase in home closings gross margin which was partially offset by an increase in pricing incentives and/or discounts. The West region experienced a decrease in home closings gross margin as a result of pricing incentives or discounts above the company average. These pricing incentives or discounts were partially offset by limited price appreciation across several divisions in the region.

Total financial services revenue was approximately $35 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Mortgage services revenue decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, which was nearly fully offset by an increase in title services and other revenues. The decrease in mortgage services revenue was due to fewer home mortgage originations, while an increase in the average selling price of homes closed increased title services revenue as title revenue is based on the home's sales price.

Sales, Commissions and Other Marketing Costs

Sales, commissions and other marketing costs, as a percentage of home closings revenue, net, increased to 5.8% from 5.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the decrease in home closings revenue, net, and an increase in external commissions costs.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses as a percentage of home closings revenue, net, remained relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of our continuous efforts to maintain stable operating costs.

Net Income from Unconsolidated Entities

Net income from unconsolidated entities was $1.9 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our joint ventures relating to our financial services segment experienced an increase in income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

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

 

Interest (Income)/Expense, Net

Interest income, net was $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and interest expense, net was $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 . The net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to an increase in interest income as a result of higher cash balances and an increase in the interest rates earned on such balances.

Other (Income)/Expense, Net

Other income, net was $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and other expense, net was $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The net other income in the current period was primarily related to a recovery on a previously written-off deposit as well as other income earned from non-core operations.

Income Tax Provision

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 23.0%, compared to 23.4% for the same period in 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to state income taxes, non-deductible executive compensation, and special deductions and credits relating to homebuilding activities.

Net Income

Net income and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $191.1 million and $1.74, respectively. Net income and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $176.7 million and $1.44, respectively. The increases in net income and diluted earnings per share from the prior year were primarily attributable to higher gross margin, higher interest and other income, and lower general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We finance our operations through the following:

 

Cash generated from operations;

 

Mortgage warehouse facilities;
Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facilities;

 

Project-level real estate financing (including non-recourse loans, land banking, and joint ventures); and
Our various series of Senior Notes;

 

Performance, payment and completion surety bonds, and letters of credit.

 

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 three month period ended March 31, 2023 witnessed significant disruptions to the banking system and financial market volatility resulting from certain bank failures. While we maintained no accounts at any failed banks, substantially all of our cash currently on deposit with other major financial institutions exceeds insured limits. We limit exposure relating to our short-term financial instruments by diversifying these financial instruments among various counterparties, which consist of major financial institutions. Generally, deposits may be redeemed on demand and are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit.

We believe we have adequate capital resources from cash generated from operations and sufficient access to external financing sources from borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facilities to conduct our operations for the next twelve months. Beyond the next twelve months, our primary demand for funds will be for payments of our long-term debt as it becomes due, land purchases, lot development, home and amenity construction, long-term capital investments, investments in our joint ventures, and repurchases of common stock. We believe we will generate sufficient cash from our operations to meet the demands for such payments, however we may also access the capital markets to obtain additional liquidity through debt and equity offerings or refinance debt to secure capital for such long-term demands. As part of our operations, we may also from time to time purchase our outstanding debt or equity through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Purchases or retirement of debt and/or purchases or equity, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Cash Flow Activities

Operating Cash Flow Activities

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $347.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $57.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily driven by an increase in net income and a decrease in spend on real estate inventory and land deposits.

Investing Cash Flow Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $24.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to an increase in capital investments into unconsolidated entities and an increase in the purchase of property and equipment.

Financing Cash Flow Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $165.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $315.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to lower net repayments on our Revolving Credit Facilities and mortgage warehouse facilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year as well as lower repurchases of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year.

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

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements as of March 31, 2023

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

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, total cash contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures were $11.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Land Option Contracts and Land Banking Agreements

We are subject to the usual obligations associated with entering into contracts (including land option contracts and land banking arrangements) for the purchase, development, and sale of real estate in our routine business. We have a number of land purchase option contracts and land banking agreements, generally through cash deposits, for the right to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. We do not have title to the property and the creditors of the property owner generally have no recourse to the Company. Our exposure with respect to such 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 both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the aggregate purchase price for land under these contracts was $1.5 billion.

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;

 

mix of homes closed;
the timing of sales;

 

construction timetables;
the timing of closings of homes, lots and parcels;

 

the cost and availability of materials and labor; and
the timing of receipt of regulatory approvals for development and construction;

 

weather conditions in the markets in which we build.

 

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

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

 

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 and Estimates

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to those 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 March 31, 2023, approximately 94% of our debt was fixed rate and 6% 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 Facilities and to borrowings by TMHF under its various mortgage warehouse facilities. As of March 31, 2023, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facilities. We had approximately $1.0 billion of additional availability for borrowings under the Credit Facilities including $129.8 million of additional availability for letters of credit under our $1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2023 (giving effect to $70.2 million of letters of credit outstanding as of such date).

The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) was the primary basis for determining interest payments on borrowings under each of our mortgage warehouse facilities and our Revolving Credit Facilities. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration (“IBA”) confirmed it would cease publication of Overnight, 1, 3, 6 and 12 month US Dollar LIBOR settings immediately following the LIBOR publication on June 30, 2023. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee, which was convened by the Federal Reserve Board and the New York Federal Reserve, has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the recommended risk-free alternative rate for US Dollar LIBOR. In response to the planned discontinuation of LIBOR, our warehouse facilities agreements for facilities A, C, D, and E as well as our Revolving Credit Facilities have been restructured to begin using SOFR as the basis for determining interest rates. The agreement for warehouse facility B was also restructured to use the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index (“BSBY”) as the primary basis for determining interest payments. The BSBY index is a proprietary index calculated daily as a credit sensitive supplement to manage the spread between funding costs and earned interest on loans. At this time, it is not possible to predict the full effect that the anticipated discontinuance of LIBOR, or the establishment of alternative reference rates such as SOFR and BSBY, will have on us or our borrowing costs. SOFR and BSBY are relatively new reference rates and their composition and characteristics are not the same as LIBOR. Given the limited history of these rates and potential volatility as compared to other benchmark or market rates, the future performance of these rates cannot be predicted based on historical performance. The consequences of using SOFR and BSBY could include an increase in the cost of our variable rate indebtedness.

We are required to offer to purchase all of our outstanding senior unsecured notes, as described in Note 7, Debt to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report, at 101% of their aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest 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 payments by scheduled maturity and effective weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of March 31, 2023. The interest rate for our variable rate debt represents the interest rate on our 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.

Based upon the amount of variable rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2023, and holding the variable rate debt balance constant, each 1% increase in interest rates would increase the interest incurred by us by approximately $1.5 million per year.
