We may not be able to recover any of the increased costs by raising prices because of weak market conditions and increasing pricing pressure.

This decrease was primarily driven by the 20% increase in home sales revenue resulting in improved utilization of leverage on the fixed components of our sales and marketing costs. Sales and marketing expense increased to $216.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $184.4 million in the prior year.
This increase was largely due to the 23% decrease in home sales revenue, which negatively impacted our fixed cost leverage. Sales and marketing expense decreased to $193.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $216.5 million in the prior year.
The increase was largely attributable to higher broker and internal commissions, as well as increased advertising expenses aimed at driving traffic and orders in response to more challenging market conditions. General and administrative expense as a percentage of home sales revenue decreased to 5.8% for the year ended December 31, 2024 from 6.0% for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The decrease was largely attributable to fewer broker and internal commissions, as these variable costs are directly tied to home sales activity and declined in line with lower revenue.

Overview and Outlook We remain optimistic about the long-term outlook for the housing industry, supported by strong underlying fundamentals, a persistent structural supply–demand imbalance, and favorable demographic trends as Millennials and Gen Z enter their prime home buying years. Over time, housing production has not kept pace with population growth and household formation, reinforcing the need for new supply.
Our homebuilding gross margin percentage improved to 23.3%, while total sales and general and administrative expense as a percentage of home sales revenue decreased to 10.8%, contributing to a 33% increase in net income available to common stockholders to $458.0 million.

In the 2025 fiscal year, we achieved home sales revenue of $3.4 billion, and our homebuilding gross margin percentage was 21.0%, while total sales and general and administrative expense as a percentage of home sales revenue increased to 12.6%.

Backlog dollar value in our West segment decreased 29% compared to the prior year as a result of a 31% decrease in backlog units, offset by a 3% increase in average sales price. The decrease in backlog units was due primarily to the decrease in new order activity experienced during 2024, coupled with an increase in deliveries.
The availability of these homes allows us to address buyer demand on shorter timelines and helps mitigate the impact of lower backlog levels on future deliveries. Backlog dollar value in our West segment decreased 45% compared to the prior year as a result of a 47% decrease in backlog units, offset by a 5% increase in average sales price.
Home sales revenue in our Central segment increased 51% due to a 55% increase in new homes delivered offset by a 2% decrease in average sales price. This growth was supported by a 127% increase in backlog units at the start of the year compared to the prior-year period.
This decrease was driven by a 37% decrease in backlog units at the start of the year compared to the prior-year period, as well as lower net new home order activity during the year.
Our homebuilding gross margin percentage increased to 23.3% for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to 22.3% for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was driven by a favorable product mix and reduced utilization of incentives in 2024.
Our homebuilding gross margin percentage decreased to 21.0% for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to 23.3% for the year ended December 31, 2024.

During 2025, we generated $161.5 million in net cash provided by operating activities, further strengthening our liquidity position.
The increase in deliveries was primarily due to a 41% rise in backlog units at the start of the year compared to the prior-year period, partially offset by slower demand in the second half of the year.
The decrease in deliveries was primarily attributable to a 31% reduction in backlog units at the beginning of the year compared to the prior-year period, as well as lower net new home order activity during the year.
