NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 or subsequent periods due to seasonal variations and other factors.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Green Brick Partners, Inc., its controlled subsidiaries, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which Green Brick Partners, Inc. or one of its controlled subsidiaries is deemed to be the primary beneficiary (together, the “Company”, “we”, or “Green Brick”).

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investments in unconsolidated entities over which it exercises significant influence but does not have a controlling interest. Under the equity method, the Company’s share of the unconsolidated entities’ earnings or losses, if any, is included in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, including the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

For a complete set of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the guidance in ASC 740, Income Taxes related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4. DEBT

Lines of Credit
Borrowings on lines of credit outstanding, net of debt issuance costs, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the following (in thousands):
June 30, 2021December 31, 2020
Secured Revolving Credit Facility $2,000 $7,000 
Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility130,000 101,000 
Debt issuance costs, net of amortization(1,395)(1,313)
Total borrowings on lines of credit, net$130,605 $106,687 

Secured Revolving Credit Facility
The Company is party to a revolving credit facility (the “Secured Revolving Credit Facility”) with Inwood National Bank, which provides for an aggregate commitment amount of $35.0 million. On May 22, 2020, the Company amended the Secured Revolving Credit Facility to reduce the aggregate commitment amount of $75.0 million to $35.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the Secured Revolving Credit Facility are secured by mortgages on real property and security interests in certain personal property (to the extent that such personal property is connected with the use and enjoyment of the real property) that is owned by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The entire unpaid principal balance and any accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable on the maturity date. As of June 30, 2021, the maturity date of the Secured Revolving Credit Facility is May 1, 2022.

As of June 30, 2021, there were letters of credit outstanding totaling $2.7 million and a net available commitment amount of $32.3 million.

As of June 30, 2021, the interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Secured Revolving Credit Facility was 4.00% per annum.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility
The Company is party to a credit agreement, providing for a senior, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility”). The Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility provides for maximum aggregate lending commitments of up to $275.0 million of which the Company has secured outstanding commitments of $265.0 million. Following amendments to the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility to replace Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“Credit Suisse”) with Veritex Community Bank (“Veritex”) as lender, the termination date with respect to commitments under the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility is December 14, 2022 for $75.0 million and December 14, 2023 for $190.0 million out of aggregate lending commitments of $265.0 million.

Fees and other debt issuance costs of $0.3 million were incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2021, associated with the amendments. These costs are deferred and reduce the carrying amount of debt on our consolidated balance sheet.

On March 1, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized a new $50.0 million stock repurchase program (the “Repurchase Plan”). The Repurchase Plan authorizes the Company to purchase from time to time on or prior to December 31, 2022, up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common stock through open market repurchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act and/or in privately negotiated transactions at management’s discretion based on market and business conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors.

7. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Share-Based Award Activity
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company granted stock awards (“SAs”) under its 2014 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan to executive officers (“EOs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to non-employee members of the Board of Directors (“BOD”). The SAs granted to the EOs were 100% vested and non-forfeitable on the grant date. Some members of the BOD also elected to defer up to 100% of their annual retainer fee in the form of RSAs. The RSAs granted to the BOD will become fully vested on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the date of grant of the shares of restricted common stock or (ii) the date of the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The fair value of the SAs granted to EOs and RSAs granted to non-employee members of the BOD were recorded as share-based compensation expense on the grant date and over the vesting period, respectively. The Company withheld 41,318 shares of common stock from EOs, at a total cost of $0.8 million, to satisfy statutory minimum tax requirements upon grant of the SAs.

Employee Stock Awards
On March 1, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an incentive program for eligible employees to participate in the Company’s new restricted stock award plan. This plan is being offered pursuant to the Company’s 2014 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. The Company incurred de minimis compensation expense related to these awards during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Performance Obligations
There was no revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods.

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations
The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations on our land sale and lot option contracts is $13.4 million. The Company will recognize the remaining revenue when the lots are taken down, or upon closing for the sale of a land parcel, which is expected to occur as follows (in thousands):
Total
Remainder of 2021$5,314 
20226,554

Total$13,381 

The timing of lot takedowns is contingent upon a number of factors, including customer needs, the number of lots being purchased, receipt of acceptance of the plat by the municipality, weather-related delays, and agreed-upon lot takedown schedules.

Our contracts with homebuyers have a duration of less than one year. As such, the Company uses the practical expedient as allowed under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and therefore has not disclosed the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.

10. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $15.7 million and $23.2 million, respectively, compared to $1.3 million and $7.4 million in the prior year periods. The effective tax rate was 21.2% and 21.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, compared to 3.7% and 12.5% in the comparable prior year periods. The change in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 relates primarily to the impact of projected noncontrolling interest for the year and a tax benefit from the enactment of the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2019 (“the 2019 Act”). The 2019 Act retroactively reinstated the federal energy efficient homes tax credit that expired on December 31, 2017 to homes closed from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. In December 2020, Congress approved the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020, which extended the federal energy efficient homes tax credit through December 31, 2021.

11. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company’s RSAs have the right to receive forfeitable dividends on an equal basis with common stock and therefore are not considered participating securities that must be included in the calculation of net income per share using the two-class method.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, adjusted for nonvested shares of RSAs during each period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method and includes the effect of all dilutive securities, including stock options and RSAs.

The computation of basic and diluted net income attributable to Green Brick Partners, Inc. per share is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, customer and builder deposits, borrowings on lines of credit, senior unsecured notes, and contingent consideration liability.

Per the fair value hierarchy, level 1 financial instruments include: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and customer and builder deposits due to their short-term nature. The Company estimates that, due to the short-term nature of the underlying financial instruments or the proximity of the underlying transaction to the applicable reporting date, the fair value of level 1 financial instruments does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Level 2 financial instruments include borrowings on lines of credit and senior unsecured notes. Due to the short-term nature and floating interest rate terms, the carrying amounts of borrowings on lines of credit are deemed to approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the senior unsecured notes as of June 30, 2021 was $256.9 million. The carrying value of senior unsecured notes as of June 30, 2021 was $237.5 million.

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of our financial instruments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Fair Value of Nonfinancial Instruments
Nonfinancial assets and liabilities include inventory which is measured at cost unless the carrying value is determined to be not recoverable in which case the affected instrument is written down to fair value. The fair value of inventory is primarily determined by discounting the estimated future cash flow of each community using various unobservable inputs in our impairment analysis. Per the fair value hierarchy, these items are level 3 nonfinancial instruments. For additional information on the Company’s inventory, refer to Note 2.

13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Operating Leases
The Company has leases associated with office and design center space in Georgia, Texas, and Florida that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of more than 12 months and are classified as operating leases. The exercise of any extension options available in such operating lease contracts is not reasonably certain.
Operating lease cost of $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.6 million in the prior year periods, is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

For such leases, the Company does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities and instead recognizes lease payments in the condensed consolidated income statements on a straight-line basis. Short-term lease cost of $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the comparable prior year periods, is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

The Company records an accrual for legal claims and regulatory matters when they are probable of occurring and a potential loss is reasonably estimable. The Company accrues for these matters based on facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revises these estimates when necessary.

In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting outcomes of legal claims and related contingencies, the Company generally cannot predict their ultimate resolution, related timing or eventual loss. If evaluations indicate loss contingencies that could be material are not probable, but are reasonably possible, the Company will disclose their nature with an estimate of the possible range of losses or a statement that such loss is not reasonably estimable. We believe that the disposition of legal claims and related contingencies will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and liquidity or on our financial condition.

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

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 8, 2020. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview and Outlook
Our key financial and operating metrics are home deliveries, home closings revenue, average sales price of homes delivered, and net new home orders, which refers to sales contracts executed reduced by the number of sales contracts canceled during the relevant period. Our results for each key financial and operating metric, as compared to the same period in 2020, are provided below:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2021Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Home deliveries
Increased by 36.9%
Increased by 27.2%
Home closings revenue
Increased by 46.5%
Increased by 31.8%
Average sales price of homes delivered
Increased by 7.0%
Increased by 3.7%
Net new home orders
Increased by 3.8%
Increased by 38.9%

The United States has been impacted by the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. However, throughout the pandemic, we have continued to build, close and sell homes in our markets. The overwhelming expansion of our sales activity is attributable to the strong performance of our new Trophy brand division, an increase in average selling communities as well as the impact of macroeconomic factors such as low interest rates, an influx of millennia first-time home buyers and demand for suburban homes from apartment dwellers in response to COVID-19. The significant increase in new home demand has, in turn, led to increased demand for the raw materials, products and appliances for new homes. Due to the increased demand for certain materials, we have and may continue to experience price increases, shortages and significant extensions to our lead time for the delivery of materials such as lumber, appliances and windows.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020
Residential Units Revenue and New Homes Delivered
The table below represents residential units revenue and new homes delivered for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended June 30,

Home closings revenue$332,279 $226,785 $105,494 46.5%
Mechanic’s lien contracts revenue1,221 1,882 (661)(35.1)%
Residential units revenue$333,500 $228,667 $104,833 45.8%
New homes delivered757 553 204 36.9%
Average sales price of homes delivered$438.9 $410.1 $28.8 7.0%

The $104.8 million increase in residential units revenue was primarily driven by the 36.9% increase in new homes delivered, which was primarily due to a large backlog of homes entering the quarter and an increased number of units under construction entering the quarter. The 7.0% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was attributable to overall price increases driven by high demand and low supply of inventory.

New Home Orders and Backlog
The table below represents new home orders and backlog related to our builder operations segments, excluding mechanic’s lien contracts (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended June 30,

Net new home orders604 582 22 3.8 %

Backlog (units)1,876 999 877 87.8 %
Average sales price of backlog$519.4 $447.0 $72.4 16.2 %

Net new home orders increased 3.8% over the prior year period and our absorption rate per average active selling community increased 7.9% year over year. The absorption rate per average active selling community per quarter of 6.8 homes during the three months ended June 30, 2021, represented a decrease from 11.3 homes during the three months ended March 31, 2021 as a result of pro-active metering of home sales. Despite significant price increases taken by the Company (which averaged from 9% up to 25% depending on the builder) during the period from November 30, 2020, through April 30, 2021, net new home orders were 209.7% of home deliveries during the first quarter of 2021. Consequently, we determined that price increases were not sufficient to limit demand for net new home orders. As a result, we metered sales during the three months ended June 30, 2021, by limiting sales per community to better align the absorption rate of sales with the ability to deliver new homes. The absorption rate per average active selling community per quarter of 6.8 homes during the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 9.1 homes during the six months ended June 30, 2021, exceed the 5.9 net new home orders during both the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019, by 15.3% and 54.2%, respectively.

Backlog refers to homes under sales contracts that have not yet closed at the end of the relevant period, and absorption rate refers to the rate at which net new home orders are contracted per average active selling community during the relevant period. Upon a cancellation, the escrow deposit may be returned to the prospective purchaser. Accordingly, backlog may not be indicative of our future revenue.

Our cancellation rate, which refers to sales contracts canceled divided by sales contracts executed during the relevant period, was 7.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 16.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in our cancellation rate is due to macroeconomic factors such as low interest rates, an influx of millennia first-time buyers and demand for suburban homes from apartment dwellers in response to COVID-19. Sales contracts relating to homes in backlog may be canceled by the prospective purchaser for a number of reasons, such as the prospective purchaser’s inability to obtain suitable mortgage financing. Upon a cancellation, the escrow deposit may be returned to the prospective purchaser. Management believes a cancellation rate in the range of 15% to 20% is representative of an industry average cancellation rate.
The $527.8 million increase in value of backlog was due to the 87.8% increase in the number of homes in backlog and the 16.2% increase in the average sales price of backlog. The 87.8% increase in the number of homes in backlog was due to a 7.9% increase in the absorption rate per average active selling community as well as the record level of backlog entering the quarter. The increase of the average sales price of homes in backlog was the result of price increases driven by the high demand and low supply of inventory. As a result of the metering of sales during the three months ended June 30, 2021, the value of backlog declined from $995.7 million as of March 31, 2021, to $974.3 million as of June 30, 2021, or 2.1%, despite increasing new homes delivered by 47.0% sequentially to 757 units, which is a record for any quarter in the existence of the Company.

Cost of residential units for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $68.4 million, or 38.9%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to the 36.9% increase in the number of new homes delivered.

Residential units gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased to 26.8%, compared to 23.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily because of a decrease in sales incentives offered to customers and overall price increases.

Lots revenue increased by 10.8%, primarily driven by a 142.3% increase in the number of lots closed and a higher number of lots developed internally. The average lot price decreased by 54.2% due to a higher number of entry level lots sold. Land revenue represents land acquired that also included parcels zoned for retail and multi family properties.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The 1.9% decrease of total selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was primarily driven by higher revenues.

Builder Operations
The 0.9% decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for builder operations was primarily attributable to an increase in builder operations revenues. Builder operations expenditures include salary expenses, sales commissions, and community costs such as advertising and marketing expenses, rent, professional fees, and non-capitalized property taxes.

Land Development
The 7.1% decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for land development was primarily attributable to an increase in land development segment revenues.

Corporate, Other and Unallocated
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the corporate, other and unallocated non-operating segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was income of $0.7 million, compared to expenses of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Equity in Income of Unconsolidated Entities
Equity in income of unconsolidated entities decreased to $4.6 million, or 11.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to a decrease in earnings from GB Challenger, LLC and Green Brick Mortgage, LLC. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a summary of Green Brick’s share in net earnings by unconsolidated entity.

Other (Loss) Income, Net
Other income, net, decreased to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to income of $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $15.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was partially due to higher taxable income. Also, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the company recognized favorable federal energy tax credits of $6.7 million from building energy-efficient homes in prior tax years.

TABLE OF CONTENTS


Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $33.5 million and $19.5 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, respectively. Our historical cash management strategy includes redeploying net cash from the sale of home inventory to acquire and develop land and lots that represent opportunities to generate desired margins and using cash to make additional investments in business acquisitions, joint ventures, or other strategic activities.

Our principal uses of capital for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were home construction, land purchases, land development, repayments of lines of credit, operating expenses, and payment of routine liabilities. We used funds generated by operations and available borrowings to meet our short-term working capital requirements. We remain focused on generating positive margins in our builder operations segments and acquiring desirable land positions in order to maintain a strong balance sheet and remain poised for continued growth.

Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the community’s stage in the development cycle and can differ substantially from reported earnings. Early stages of development or expansion require significant cash outlays for land acquisitions, entitlements and other approvals, roads, utilities, general landscaping and other amenities. These costs are a component of our inventory and are not recognized in our statement of income until a home closes. In the later stages of community development, cash inflows may significantly exceed earnings reported for financial statement purposes, as the cash outflows associated with home construction and land development previously occurred.

Our debt to total capitalization ratio, which is calculated as the sum of borrowings on lines of credit, the senior unsecured notes, and notes payable, net of debt issuance costs (“total debt”), divided by the total capitalization, which equals the sum of Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders’ equity and total debt, was approximately 33.8% as of June 30, 2021. In addition, as of June 30, 2021, our net debt to total capitalization ratio, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, remained low at 31.7%. It is our intent to prudently employ leverage to continue to invest in our land acquisition, development and homebuilding businesses. We target a debt to total capitalization ratio of approximately 30% to 35%, which we expect will provide us with significant additional growth capital.

Reconciliation of a Non-GAAP Financial Measure
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we utilize a financial measure of net debt to total capitalization ratio that is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Net debt to total capitalization is calculated as the total debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by the sum of total Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders’ equity and total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We present this measure because we believe it is useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company’s financing structure. We also believe this measure facilitates the comparison of our financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because this measure is not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The closest GAAP financial measure to the net debt to total capitalization ratio is the debt to total capitalization ratio. The following table represents a reconciliation of the net debt to total capitalization ratio to the closest GAAP financial measure as of June 30, 2021:

Key Sources of Liquidity
The Company’s key sources of liquidity were funds generated by operations and borrowings during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Debt Instruments

Senior Unsecured Notes - As of June 30, 2021, we had three series of senior unsecured notes outstanding which were each issued pursuant to a note purchase agreement. The aggregate amount of senior unsecured notes outstanding was $235.6 million as of June 30, 2021 up from $111.1 million as of December 31, 2020 due to the issuance of the 2028 Notes discussed below.
In August 2019, we issued $75 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2026 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 4.0% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2026 Notes is required to be paid in increments of $12.5 million on August 8, 2024 and $12.5 million on August 8, 2025 with a final principal payment of $50.0 million on August 8, 2026.
In August 2020, we issued $37.5 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2027 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.35% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2027 Notes is due on August 26, 2027.
In February 2021, we issued $125 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2028 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.25% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2028 Notes is due in increments of $25.0 million annually on February 25 in each of 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028.
Optional prepayment is allowed with payment of a “make-whole” premium which fluctuates depending on market interest rates. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears.

The 2028 Notes were issued pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement to several institutional purchasers. We received net proceeds of $124.4 million and incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $0.6 million that were deferred and reduced the amount of debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We used the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2028 Notes to repay borrowings under our existing secured and unsecured revolving credit facilities and for general corporate purposes.
Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility – As of June 30, 2021, our $265.0 million Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility had a $130.0 million balance, up from $101.0 million as of December 31, 2020. The borrowings on the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate equal to either (a) for base rate advances, the highest of (1) the lender’s base rate, (2) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% and (3) the one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%, in each case plus 1.5%; or (b) in the case of Eurodollar rate advances, the reserve adjusted LIBOR plus 2.5%. As of June 30, 2021, the interest rates on outstanding borrowings under the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility ranged from 2.57% to 2.59% per annum. As amended, the aggregate principal amount of the revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement is $265.0 million through December 14, 2022 and $190.0 million through December 14, 2023. In addition, the Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended, permits us, without the consent of the other lenders, to request that one or more lenders increase their revolving credit commitments to provide an aggregate of $275 million of revolving credit commitments subject to compliance with customary conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement including compliance, on a pro forma basis, with the financial covenants set forth therein.

Secured Revolving Credit Facility As of June 30, 2021, we had $2.0 million outstanding under our Secured Revolving Credit facility, down from $7.0 million as of December 31, 2020. Borrowings on the Secured Revolving Credit facility have a maturity date of May 1, 2022 and bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the rate announced by Bank of America, N.A. as its “Prime Rate” less 0.25%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest may not, at any time, be less than 4% per annum or more than the lesser amount of 18% and the highest maximum rate allowed by applicable law. As of June 30, 2021, the interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Secured Revolving Credit Facility was 4.00% per annum.

Our debt instruments require us to maintain specific financial covenants, each of which we were in compliance with as of June 30, 2021. Specifically, under the most restrictive covenants, we are required to maintain (1) a minimum interest coverage (consolidated EBITDA to interest incurred) of no less than 2.0 to 1.0 and, as of June 30, 2021, our interest coverage on a last 12 months’ basis was 19.19 to 1.0, (2) a Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of no less than approximately $452.0 million and, as of June 30, 2021, we had $716.1 million and (3) maximum debt to total capitalization rolling average ratio of no more than 40.0% and, as of June 30, 2021, we had a rolling average ratio of 30.9%.

As of June 30, 2021, we believe that our cash on hand, capacity available under our lines of credit and cash flows from operations for the next twelve months will be sufficient to service our outstanding debt during the next twelve months. For additional information on the Company’s lines of credit and senior unsecured notes, refer to Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Cash Flows
The following summarizes our primary sources and uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020:

Operating activities. Net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $118.7 million, compared to $39.0 million provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The net cash outflows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily driven by an increase in inventory of $261.2 million, partially offset by $86.3 million of cash generated from business operations, the deferral of expense payments through a $21.2 million increase in accounts payable, and a $25.6 million increase in customer and builder deposits.

Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased to $1.5 million, compared to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $143.7 million, compared to $23.7 million used by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The cash inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily from our senior unsecured notes of $125.0 million and from our borrowings from lines of credit.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

Land and Lot Option Contracts
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land purchase contracts with third-party developers in order to procure lots for the construction of our homes in the future. We are subject to customary obligations associated with such contracts. These purchase contracts typically require an earnest money deposit, and the purchase of properties under these contracts is generally contingent upon satisfaction of certain requirements, including obtaining applicable property and development entitlements.

We also utilize option contracts with lot sellers as a method of acquiring lots in staged takedowns, which are the schedules that dictate when lots must be purchased to help manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings, and to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources. Lot option contracts generally require us to pay a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at pre-determined prices which typically include escalations in lot prices over time.

Our utilization of lot option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into these arrangements, the availability of capital to finance the development of optioned lots, general housing market conditions and local market dynamics. Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions.

We generally have the right, at our discretion, to terminate our obligations under both purchase contracts and option contracts by forfeiting the earnest money deposit with no further financial responsibility to the land seller. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, management determined to increase the allowance for certain option contracts due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the homebuilding industry and projected future demand for homes in certain markets and/or locations. However, management subsequently reassessed the market situation based on new information available and reversed such allowances for earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to option contracts in the subsequent quarter.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had earnest money deposits of $24.7 million at risk associated with contracts to purchase 3,787 lots past feasibility studies with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $270.4 million.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Seasonality

The homebuilding industry experiences seasonal fluctuations in quarterly operating results and capital requirements. We typically experience the highest new home order activity in spring and summer, although this activity is highly dependent on the number of active selling communities, timing of new community openings and other market factors. Since it typically takes five to nine months to construct a new home, we normally deliver more homes in the second half of the year as spring and summer home orders are delivered. Because of this seasonality, home starts, construction costs and related cash outflows have historically been highest in the second and third quarters, and the majority of cash receipts from home deliveries occur during the second half of the year.
