New in FY2021

Business Environment and Current Outlook

New in FY2021

Demand for new homes remained strong across each of our markets throughout 2021, driven by historically low mortgage rates and limited housing supply.

New in FY2021

As a result, we were able to consistently increase prices throughout the year, allowing us to improve profitability despite rising lumber and other material costs and labor costs.

New in FY2021

Additionally, strong housing demand has resulted in increased construction activity and demand for building materials and contractor labor, which, coupled with the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, has led to supply chain disruptions and longer construction cycle times.

New in FY2021

We expect to continue to face these disruptions well into 2022 and continue to work closely with our suppliers and trade partners to manage these disruptions.

New in FY2021

We expect to continue to face cost pressures related to building materials, particularly lumber, as well as labor and land costs.

New in FY2021

As of December 31, 2021, we controlled approximately 124,900 lots as discussed below.

New in FY2021

We owned land with a carrying value of approximately $12,100 that we intend to develop into approximately 200 finished lots.

New in FY2021

Settlements for the year ended December 31, 2021 totaled 21,540 units, an increase of 9% from 2020.

[Table of Contents](#i7590cbd56e444695a540fbe03dbc5f13_7)

New in FY2021

The gross profit margin percentage in 2021 increased to 22.3% from 19.0% in 2020.

New in FY2021

Gross profit margins were favorably impacted by the increase in the average settlement price attributable to improved pricing power in prior quarters and improved leveraging of certain operating costs attributable to the increase in settlement activity year over year.

New in FY2021

These favorable factors were partially offset by higher prices for lumber, certain other commodities and labor year over year.

New in FY2021

The number of New Orders decreased 2% while the average sales price of New Orders increased 15% in 2021 when compared to 2020.

New in FY2021

The number of New Orders in the current year were lower due primarily to a 9% decrease in the average number of active communities year over year.

New in FY2021

The increase in the average sales price of New Orders was primarily attributable to favorable market conditions which, coupled with low housing inventory levels, drove demand and provided us sustained pricing power since the second half of 2020.

New in FY2021

The increase in SG&A expense year over year was attributable primarily to increased incentive compensation attributable to stronger performance year over year, as well as increased personnel costs due to increased headcount.

New in FY2021

Backlog units were higher despite an 11% decrease in New Orders during the six-month period ending December 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, due to a lower backlog turnover rate year over year.

New in FY2021

Our backlog turnover rate was negatively impacted by a longer production cycle attributable to supply chain disruptions and subcontractor capacity constraints.

New in FY2021

Backlog dollars were higher due to a 15% increase in the average sales price of New Orders during the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

Business Environment and the Impact of COVID-19

Dropped from FY2020

The pandemic, caused by the novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19"), has had a significant impact on all facets of our business.

Dropped from FY2020

Our primary focus as we face this challenge is to do everything we can to ensure the safety and well-being of our employees, customers and trade partners.

Dropped from FY2020

Residential construction has been deemed an essential business in each of our markets since the beginning of the pandemic, except Pennsylvania and New York, where we faced closures into May 2020.

Dropped from FY2020

In each of our markets, we continue to operate in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as well as state and local guidelines, which has resulted in significant changes to the way we conduct business.

Dropped from FY2020

We experienced elevated sales cancellations and decreased new orders during March and April; however, the demand for new homes began to strengthen in May and remained strong through December.

Dropped from FY2020

Despite high unemployment rates attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic, demand has increased primarily as a result of historically low mortgage interest rates coupled with low resale inventory levels.

Dropped from FY2020

From March through May, there were significant disruptions in the mortgage market as investors tightened their credit standards or exited the market, which resulted in significantly lower values for mortgage servicing rights and fewer customers able to qualify for a mortgage.
