SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation — The accompanying unaudited Condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair presentation of our results for the interim periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year.
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 accompanying notes. Significant estimates include real estate development costs to complete, valuation of real estate, valuation of goodwill, valuation of estimated 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 generally using the relative sales value method. Generally, all overhead costs relating to purchasing, vertical construction, and construction utilities are considered overhead costs and allocated on a per unit basis. These costs are capitalized to inventory beginning with the start of development through construction completion. Changes in estimated costs to be incurred in a community are generally allocated to the remaining project 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 ("Topic 360"). 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, in certain circumstances, fair value can be determined through other methods, such as appraisals, contractual purchase offers, and other third-party opinions of value. Changes in these projections and estimates 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 September 30, 2025, we recorded $7.2 million of inventory impairment charges relating to certain communities in our East reporting segment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $28.8 million of inventory impairment charges relating to certain communities in our West and East reporting segments. These impairment charges were primarily driven by declining sales prices and pricing incentives. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 there was no inventory impairment recorded. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded $2.3 million of inventory impairment relating to one of our communities in our East reporting segment. Inventory impairments are recorded to Cost of home closings on the unaudited Condensed consolidated statements of operations.
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 and marketing 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 recoverability. 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 September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had no long-term strategic assets.

Assets Held for Sale - Real estate or inventory assets are considered held for sale once it is determined all criteria in accordance with Topic 360 have been met. The criteria includes the following considerations: (i) whether the company is committed to a plan to sell, (ii) whether the asset is available for immediate sale in the asset's present condition, (iii) whether an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell have been initiated, (iv) whether the sale of the asset is probable (i.e., likely to occur) and the transfer is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year, (v) whether the long-lived asset or disposal group is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value, and (vi) whether actions necessary to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely significant changes to the plan will be made and that the plan will be withdrawn. Real estate and inventory assets held for sale are reported at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell. The estimated fair value is generally based on appraisal, sales listing agreements, purchase and sales agreements, letters of intent, broker price opinions, recent offers received, prices for assets in recent comparable sales transactions, or other third-party estimates. Impairment charges on real estate or inventory assets held for sale are recognized when the carrying value is greater than the estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value may be based on the estimated sales price of the property or a cash flow analysis may also be performed.

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. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we had no fair value adjustments for land held for sale. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we had no fair value adjustments for land held for sale. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded $6.8 million of fair value adjustments for land held for sale in our West reporting segment. Adjustments for land held for sale are recorded within Cost of land closings on the unaudited Condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we executed a purchase and sale agreement for one Build-to-Rent asset in Phoenix, which is in our Corporate and Unallocated operating and reporting segment. The carrying amount for the Build-To-Rent asset is $43.9 million and is included in property and equipment, net on the unaudited Condensed consolidated balance sheets. As the fair value is greater than the carrying value for the asset, no adjustment to fair value was recorded. There was one Urban Form asset in Oregon with a fair value of $89.7 million classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2024.
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 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. We incur interest expense on these arrangements. Interest is based on remaining lots to be purchased and is capitalized for the percentage of lots in each project actively under development, with the remainder expensed and included in Interest expense, net on the unaudited Condensed consolidated statements of operations. These lots are considered controlled but we are not legally obligated to purchase lots under these agreements; however, we would forfeit any existing deposits and could be subject to financial and other penalties if we do not purchase the lots. We do not have an ownership interest in these entities or title to their assets and do not guarantee their liabilities. As such, these
entities are not consolidated. 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.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had the right to purchase 7,939 lots and 6,895 lots under such land banking agreements for an aggregate purchase price of $1.5 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our exposure to loss related to deposits on land banking arrangements totaled $198.3 million and $154.8 million, respectively.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we entered into a new land banking arrangement related to our Build-to-Rent operations. This land banking agreement is similar to our other land banking arrangements, however the land seller for our Build-to-Rent land banking agreement finances both construction and development. As of September 30, 2025, we had the right to purchase 3,562 lots under the Build-to-Rent land banking agreement for an aggregate purchase price of $769.6 million. As of September 30, 2025 our exposure to loss related to deposits on the Build-to-Rent land banking agreement totaled $34.1 million.

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 home and land closings 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 community amenities such as golf courses, clubhouses, and fitness centers, pursuant to which we 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 and recorded as revenue on a monthly basis. Revenue from our golf club operations is also included in Amenity and other revenue. Amenity and other revenue also includes lease and sale revenue from our Urban Form and Build-to-Rent operations. Lease revenue for Urban Form and Build-to-Rent is earned from residential and commercial rental spaces. Revenue from the sale of assets from our Urban Form operations and Build-to-Rent operations is recorded as control transfers to the buyer at transaction close and other criteria of ASC Topic 606 are met.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we executed a purchase and sale agreement for one Urban Form asset in California, which is in our Corporate and Unallocated operating and reporting segment. The sale of the Urban Form asset during the three months ended September 30, 2025, generated $22.8 million of revenue which was recorded in Amenity and other revenue on the Condensed consolidated statements of 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. Generally, loans TMHF originates are sold to third party investors within a short period of time, on a non-recourse basis. Gains and losses from the sale of mortgages are recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 860-20, Sales of Financial Assets. TMHF does not have continuing involvement with the transferred assets; therefore, we derecognize the mortgage loans at time of sale, based on the difference between the selling price and carrying value of the related loans upon sale, recording a gain/loss on sale in the period of sale. Also included in Financial services revenue/expenses is the 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 unaudited Condensed consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they occur.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, entities must consistently categorize and provide greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation as well as further disaggregate income taxes paid. This ASU can be applied prospectively or retrospectively and is effective for the annual reporting period ending December 31, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which establishes new disclosure requirements for income statement expenses. Under the new guidance, entities must provide greater disaggregation of expenses which includes disclosing the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, and depreciation included in each relevant expense caption. Entities will also have to disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, the total amount of selling expenses, and a definition of selling expenses. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 which updated the effective date related to ASU 2024-03. As a result of the issuance of ASU 2025-01, the ASU is effective for the annual reporting period ending December 31, 2027. The adoption of ASU 2024-03 will not impact our consolidated financial statements but we are currently reviewing the impact that it may have on our footnote disclosures.
