Century Communities, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2023

1. Basis of Presentation

Century Communities, Inc. (which we refer to as “we,” “CCS,” or the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 18 states. In many of our projects, in addition to building homes, we are responsible for the entitlement and development of the underlying land. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Century Complete brands. Our Century Communities brand targets a wide range of buyer profiles including: entry-level, first and second time move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade opportunities. Our Century Complete brand targets entry-level homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and generally provides no option or upgrade opportunities.

Our homebuilding operations are organized into the following five reportable segments: West, Mountain, Texas, Southeast, and Century Complete. Our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inspire Home Loans Inc., Parkway Title, LLC, and IHL Home Insurance Agency, LLC, which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services, respectively, primarily to our homebuyers, have been identified as our Financial Services segment. Additionally, our wholly owned subsidiary, Century Living, LLC, is engaged in the development, construction and management of multi-family rental properties, currently all located in Colorado. Century Living, LLC is included in our Corporate segment.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (which we refer to as “GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (which we refer to as the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 that was filed with the SEC on February 2, 2023.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest, and variable interest entities for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We do not have any variable interest entities in which we are deemed the primary beneficiary.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

‎Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

There are no recent accounting standards that are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Reporting Segments

Our homebuilding operations are engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 18 states. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Century Complete brands. Our Century Communities brand is managed by geographic location, and each of our four geographic regions offers a wide range of buyer profiles including: entry-level, first and second time move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade selections. Each of our four geographic regions is considered a separate operating segment. Our Century Complete brand targets entry-level homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the

7

internet, and generally provides no option or upgrade selections. Our Century Complete brand currently has operations in 11 states and it is considered a separate operating segment.

The management of our four Century Communities geographic regions and Century Complete reports to our chief operating decision makers (which we refer to as “CODMs”), the Co-Chief Executive Officers of our Company. The CODMs review the results of our operations, including total revenue and income before income tax expense to determine profitability and to allocate resources. Accordingly, we have presented our homebuilding operations as the following five reportable segments:

West (California and Washington)

Mountain (Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, and Utah)

Texas

Southeast (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee)

Century Complete (Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina)

Commencing in the first quarter of 2023, our Century Complete operations in Texas were realigned and are now managed under our Texas segment. Accordingly, we have presented segment information under this new basis as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we have restated the corresponding segment information for those segments as of December 31, 2022 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

We have identified our Financial Services operations, which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services to our homebuyers, as a sixth reportable segment. Our Corporate operations are a non-operating segment, as our Corporate operations serve to support our homebuilding, and to a lesser extent our Financial Services operations, through functions, such as our executive, finance, treasury, human resources, accounting and legal departments.

Additionally, our wholly owned subsidiary, Century Living, LLC, is engaged in the development, construction and management of multi-family rental properties, currently all located in Colorado. Century Living, LLC is included in our Corporate segment. 

The following table summarizes total revenue and income (loss) before income tax expense by segment (in thousands):

Total inventories	$	3,058,317	$	2,830,645

4. Financial Services

Our Financial Services are principally comprised of our mortgage lending operations, Inspire Home Loans Inc. (which we refer to as “Inspire”). Inspire is a full-service mortgage lender and primarily originates mortgage loans for our homebuyers. Inspire sells substantially all of the loans it originates either as loans with servicing rights released, or with servicing rights retained, in the secondary mortgage market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. Inspire primarily finances these loans using its mortgage repurchase facilities. 

Mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage servicing rights are carried at fair value, with gains and losses from the changes in fair value reflected in financial services revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. Management believes carrying mortgage loans held for sale at fair value improves financial reporting by mitigating volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring the fair value of the loans and the derivative instruments used to economically hedge them. Net gains and losses from the sale of mortgage loans held for sale, which are recognized based upon the difference between the sales proceeds and carrying value of the related loans upon sale, are also included in financial services revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. Financial services revenue also includes fees earned from originating mortgage loans which are recognized at the time the mortgage loans are funded, including origination fees, discount points to reduce interest rates and fees earned from forward commitment agreements entered into between our homebuilding segments and Financial Services.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Inspire had mortgage loans held for sale with an aggregate fair value of $162.7 million and $203.6 million, respectively, and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $165.7 million and $202.0 million, respectively. Net losses on the sale of mortgage loans were $6.9 million and $3.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and net gains on the sale of mortgage loans were $4.5 million and $15.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. Losses from the change in fair value for mortgage loans held for sale were $2.9 million and $4.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and were $8.1 million and $16.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Mortgage loans in process for which interest rates were locked by borrowers, or interest rate lock commitments, totaled approximately $138.9 million and $68.1 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and carried a weighted average interest rate of approximately 6.0% and 6.1%, respectively.  Interest rate risks related to these obligations are typically mitigated by the preselling of loans to investors or through our interest rate hedging program. Derivative instruments used to economically hedge our market and interest rate risk are carried at fair value. Derivative instruments typically include interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments on mortgage-backed securities. Changes in fair value of these derivatives as well as any gains or losses upon settlement

7. Warranties

Estimated future direct warranty costs are accrued and charged to cost of home sales revenues in the period when the related home sales revenues are recognized. Amounts accrued, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, are based upon historical experience rates. We subsequently assess the adequacy of our warranty accrual on a quarterly basis through a model that incorporates historical payment trends and adjust the amounts recorded, if necessary. Based on warranty payment trends relative to our estimates at the time of home closing, we reduced our warranty reserve by $0.5 million and $0.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and we reduced our warranty reserve by $1.2 million and $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These adjustments are included in cost of home sales revenues on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.  Changes in our warranty accrual for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are detailed in the table below (in thousands):

8. Self-Insurance Reserve

We maintain general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for certain construction defects after homes have closed and premise operations during construction. These insurance policies protect us against a portion of the risk of loss from claims, subject to certain self-insured per occurrence and aggregate retentions, deductibles, and available policy limits. In circumstances where we have elected to retain a higher portion of the overall risk for construction defect claims in return for a lower initial premium, we reserve for the estimated self-insured retention costs that we will incur that are above our coverage limits or that are not covered by our insurance policies. The reserve is recorded on an undiscounted basis at the time revenue is recognized for each home closing. Amounts accrued, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, are based on third party actuarial analyses that are primarily based on industry data and partially on our historical claims, which include estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. Our self-insurance liability is presented on a gross basis without consideration of insurance recoveries and amounts we have paid on behalf of and expect to recover from other parties, if any. Estimates of insurance recoveries and amounts we have paid on behalf of and expect to recover from other parties, if any, are recorded as receivables when such recoveries are considered probable. Based on our third-party actuarial analysis, we reduced our self-insurance reserve by $3.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we increased our self-insurance reserve by $0.9 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Any adjustments are included in cost of home sales revenues on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Changes in our self-insurance reserve for incurred but not reported construction defect claims for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are detailed in the table below (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,

9. Debt

Our outstanding debt obligations included the following as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):  

	September 30,		December 31,
	2023		2022

⁽¹⁾The carrying value of senior notes reflects the impact of premiums, discounts, and issuance costs that are amortized to interest expense over the respective terms of the senior notes.

⁽²⁾As of September 30, 2023, other financing obligations included $30.0 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings, as well as $28.8 million outstanding under construction loan agreements. As of December 31, 2022, other financing obligations included $20.7 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings, as well as $7.4 million outstanding under construction loan agreements.

Construction Loan Agreements

Certain wholly owned subsidiaries of Century Living, LLC, are parties to construction loan agreements entered into during 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 with various banks, (which we collectively refer to as “the lenders”). The three construction loan agreements collectively provide that we may borrow up to an aggregate of $187.6 million from the lenders for purposes of construction of multi-family projects in Colorado, with advances made by the lenders upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. Borrowings under the construction loan agreements bear interest at various rates, including a fixed rate, and floating interest rates per annum equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (which we refer to as “SOFR”) and the Bloomberg Short-term Bank Yield Index, plus an applicable

11

margin. The outstanding principal balances and all accrued and unpaid interest is due on varying maturity dates through March 17, 2028, with certain of the construction loan agreements allowing for the option to extend the maturity dates for a period of 12 months if certain conditions are satisfied. The construction loan agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants (including covenants related to construction completion, and limitations on the use of loan proceeds, transfers of land, equipment, and improvements), as well as customary events of default. Interest on our construction loan agreements is capitalized to the multi-family properties assets included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets while the related multi-family rental properties are being actively developed.

As of September 30, 2023, $28.8 million was outstanding under the construction loan agreements, with borrowings that bore a weighted average interest rate of 7.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we were in compliance with all covenants thereunder.

Revolving Line of Credit

In 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (which we refer to as the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”) with Texas Capital Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer, and the lenders party thereto. The Second A&R Credit Agreement, which amended and restated our prior Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, provides us with a senior unsecured revolving line of credit (which we refer to as the “revolving line of credit”) of up to $800.0 million, and unless terminated earlier, will mature on April 30, 2026. The revolving line of credit includes a $250.0 million sublimit for standby letters of credit. Under the terms of the Second A&R Credit Agreement, the Company is entitled to request an increase in the size of the revolving line of credit by an amount not exceeding $200.0 million. Our obligations under the Second A&R Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (including limitations on our ability to grant liens, incur additional debt, pay dividends, redeem our common stock, make certain investments and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions), as well as customary events of default. On December 21, 2022, we entered into a First Modification Agreement with Texas Capital Bank (formerly known as Texas Capital Bank, National Association), as Administrative Agent, amending the Second A&R Credit Agreement pursuant to which, effective January 3, 2023, all existing borrowings using an interest rate based on a LIBOR reference rate had the interest rate replaced with one based on an adjusted term SOFR reference rate, which equals the greater of (i) 0.50% or (ii) the one-month quotation of the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 0.10%.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no amounts were outstanding under the revolving line of credit, respectively, and we were in compliance with all covenants under the Second A&R Credit Agreement.

Mortgage Repurchase Facilities – Financial Services

Inspire is a party to a mortgage warehouse facility with J.P. Morgan, which provides Inspire with uncommitted repurchase facilities of up to an aggregate of $200.0 million as of September 30, 2023, secured by the mortgage loans financed thereunder, and a maturity date through January 19, 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we terminated our mortgage warehouse facility agreement with Comerica, which provided uncommitted repurchase facilities of up to an aggregate of $75.0 million, with outstanding principal and interest due on December 29, 2023. The repurchase facilities bore a weighted average interest rate of 6.80% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Amounts outstanding under the repurchase facilities are not guaranteed by us or any of our subsidiaries, and the agreements contain various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Inspire that are customary for arrangements of this type. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $162.1 million and $197.6 million outstanding under the repurchase facilities, respectively, and were in compliance with all covenants thereunder.

10. Interest on Senior Notes and Revolving Line of Credit

Interest on our senior notes and revolving line of credit, if applicable, is capitalized to inventories while the related communities are being actively developed and until homes are completed. As our qualifying assets exceeded our outstanding debt during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we capitalized all interest costs incurred on these facilities during these periods.

12

Our interest costs were as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Interest capitalized beginning of period	$	69,745	$	57,124	$	61,775	$	53,379
Interest capitalized during period		14,234		17,281		42,281		46,645
Less: capitalized interest in cost of sales		(10,652)		(13,726)		(30,729)		(39,345)
Interest capitalized end of period	$	73,327	$	60,679	$	73,327	$	60,679

11. Income Taxes

At the end of each interim period, we are required to estimate our annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year and to use that rate to provide for income taxes for the current year-to-date reporting period. Our 2023 estimated annual effective tax rate, before discrete items of 26.4%, is driven by our blended federal and state statutory rate of 24.8%, and certain permanent differences between GAAP and tax, including disallowed deductions for executive compensation offset by estimated federal energy home credits for current year home deliveries, which combined resulted in a net increase of 1.6%.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our estimated annual rate of 26.4% was benefitted by discrete items which had a net impact of decreasing our rate by 1.1%, including federal energy home tax credits claimed for prior year home deliveries in excess of previous estimates and the impact of excess tax benefits for vested stock-based compensation.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $28.8 million and $27.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $56.9 million and $128.9 million, respectively.

12. Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value measurements are used for the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale, mortgage loans held for investment, mortgage servicing rights, interest rate lock commitments and other derivative instruments on a recurring basis. We also utilize fair value measurements on a non-recurring basis for inventories and intangible assets when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value is not recoverable. The fair value hierarchy and its application to the Company’s assets and liabilities is as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are inactive; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets at the measurement date.

Mortgage loans held for sale – Fair value is based on quoted market prices for committed and uncommitted mortgage loans.

Derivative assets and liabilities – Derivative assets are associated with interest rate lock commitments and investor commitments on loans and may also be associated with forward mortgage-backed securities contracts. Derivative liabilities are associated with forward mortgage-backed securities contracts. Fair value is based on market prices for similar instruments.

Level 3 – Valuations derived from techniques where one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable in active markets at the measurement date.

Mortgage servicing rights - The fair value of the mortgage servicing rights is calculated using third-party valuations. The key assumptions, which are generally unobservable inputs, used in the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and cost to service.

Mortgage loans held for investment at fair value – The fair value of mortgage loans held for investment at fair value is calculated based on Level 3 analysis which incorporates information including the value of underlying collateral, from markets where there is little observable trading activity.

13

The following outlines the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively (in thousands):

			September 30,		December 31,
	Balance Sheet Classification	Hierarchy	2023		2022
Mortgage loans held for sale	Mortgage loans held for sale	Level 2	$	162,742	$	203,558
Mortgage loans held for investment at fair value (1)	Prepaid expenses and other assets	Level 3	$	21,367	$	18,875
Derivative assets	Prepaid expenses and other assets	Level 2	$	5,458	$	1,958
Mortgage servicing rights (2)	Prepaid expenses and other assets	Level 3	$	30,493	$	24,164
Derivative liabilities	Accrued expenses and other liabilities	Level 2	$	—	$	1,526

⁽¹⁾The unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the mortgage loans held for investment at fair value include, among other items, the value of underlying collateral, from markets where there is little observable trading activity.

⁽²⁾The unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and cost to service, which were 9.0%, 10.2%, and $0.071 per year per loan, respectively, as of September 30, 2023, and 7.6%, 9.0%, and $0.072 per year per loan, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. The high and low end of the range of unobservable inputs used in the valuation did not result in a significant change to the fair value measurement.

The following table represents the reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance for the Level 3 recurring fair value measurements, with gains and losses from the changes in fair value reflected in financial services revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,

For the financial assets and liabilities that the Company does not reflect at fair value, the following present both their respective carrying value and fair value at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively (in thousands).

		September 30, 2023				December 31, 2022

Mortgage repurchase facilities(3)	Level 2	$	162,094	$	162,094	$	197,626	$	197,626

⁽¹⁾Estimated fair value of the senior notes is based on recent trading activity in inactive markets.

⁽²⁾Carrying amounts include any associated unamortized deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts. As of September 30, 2023, these amounts totaled $4.5 million and $3.0 million for the 3.875% senior notes and 6.750% senior notes, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, these amounts totaled $5.1 million and $3.6 million for the 3.875% senior notes and 6.750% senior notes, respectively.

⁽³⁾Carrying amount approximates fair value due to short-term nature and/or interest rate terms.

⁽⁴⁾During the period ended September 30, 2023, other financing obligations included $30.0 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings that generally bore interest rates ranging from 2.40% to 7.70%, and $28.8 million related to outstanding borrowings on the construction loan agreements that bore a weighted average interest rate of 7.2%. During the period ended December 31, 2022, other financing obligations included $20.7 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings that generally bore interest rates ranging from 2.40% to 5.84%, and $7.4 million related to outstanding borrowings on the construction loan agreements that bore a weighted average interest rate of 5.6%.

Non-financial assets and liabilities include items such as inventory and property and equipment that are measured at fair value when acquired and as a result of impairments, if deemed necessary. No impairment charges were recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. When impairment charges are recognized, the estimated fair value of communities are determined through a discounted cash flow approach utilizing Level 3 inputs. Changes in our cash flow projections in future periods related to these communities may change our conclusions on the recoverability of inventory in the future.

13. Stock-Based Compensation

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we granted restricted stock units (which we refer to as “RSUs”) covering 0.2 million and 0.2 million shares of common stock, respectively, with a grant date fair value of $62.68 and $63.26 per share, respectively, that primarily vest over a three year period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we granted 11.0 thousand and 11.0 thousand shares of common stock, respectively, on an unrestricted basis (which we refer to as “stock awards”) with a grant date fair value of $65.77 and $54.46 per share, respectively, to our non-employee directors.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we granted performance share units (which we refer to as “PSUs”) covering up to 0.5 million and 0.5 million shares of common stock, respectively, assuming maximum level of performance, with a grant date fair value of $60.05 and $55.93 per share, respectively, that are subject to both service and performance vesting conditions. The quantity of shares that will ultimately vest and be issued for the PSUs ranges from 0% to up to 250% of a targeted number of shares dependent upon the participant and will be determined based on an achievement of a three year adjusted pre-tax income performance goal. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we issued 0.3 million and 0.3 million shares of common stock, respectively, upon the vesting and settlement of PSUs that were granted in previous periods. Approximately 1.1 million shares will vest from 2024 to 2026 if the defined maximum performance targets are met, and no shares will vest if the defined minimum performance targets are not met.

A summary of our outstanding PSUs, assuming the current estimated level of performance achievement, and RSUs are as follows (in thousands, except years):

	As of September 30, 2023
Unvested units		1,357
Unrecognized compensation cost	$	41,092
Weighted-average years to recognize compensation cost		1.91

During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $12.2 million and $5.2 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $26.5 million and $15.0 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general, and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

15

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation we updated our recognition of stock-based compensation expense associated with previously granted PSU awards to reflect probable financial results as they relate to the performance goals of the awards. Accordingly, our estimate of the number of shares which will ultimately vest under our PSU awards increased by 0.4 million shares during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 0.4 million shares during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. We recorded a cumulative catch-up adjustment to increase stock-based compensation expense of $7.4 million ($5.5 million net of tax), or $0.17 per share (basic and diluted), for the three months ended September 30, 2023, and $10.8 million ($8.0 million net of tax), or $0.25 per share (basic and diluted), for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

14. Stockholders’ Equity

The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 100.0 million shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 50.0 million shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 31.8 million and 31.8 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding, respectively, and no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

On May 4, 2022, the stockholders approved the adoption of the Century Communities, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan (which we refer to as the “2022 Incentive Plan”), which replaced the Century Communities, Inc. Amended and Restated 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (which we refer to as our “2017 Incentive Plan”). Under the 2022 Incentive Plan, 3.1 million shares of common stock are available for issuance to eligible participants, plus 51.2 thousand shares of our common stock that remained available for issuance under the 2017 Incentive Plan and any shares subject to awards outstanding under the 2017 Incentive Plan that are subsequently forfeited, cancelled, expire or otherwise terminate without the issuance of such shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we issued 0.4 million and 0.5 million shares of common stock, respectively, related to the vesting and settlement of RSUs and PSUs. As of September 30, 2023, approximately 2.5 million shares of common stock remained available for issuance under the 2022 Incentive Plan.

Under the 2022 Incentive Plan and the previous 2017 Incentive Plan, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, RSUs and PSUs granted under the plan have the right to earn dividend equivalents, which entitles the holders of such RSUs and PSUs to additional RSUs and PSUs equal to the same dividend value per share as holders of common stock. Dividend equivalents are subject to the same vesting and other terms and conditions as the underlying RSUs and PSUs.

We are party to a Distribution Agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and Fifth Third Securities, Inc. (which we refer to as the “Distribution Agreement”), as sales agents pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million from time to time through any of the sales agents party thereto in “at-the-market” offerings, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Distribution Agreement. The Distribution Agreement will remain in full force and effect until terminated by either party pursuant to the terms of the agreement or such date that the maximum offering amount has been sold in accordance with the terms of the agreement. We did not sell or issue any shares of our common stock during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and as of September 30, 2023, all $100.0 million remained available for sale.

We authorized a stock repurchase program in 2018, under which we may repurchase up to 4.5 million shares of our outstanding common stock. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, an aggregate of 247.8 thousand and 278.2 thousand shares,

16

respectively, were repurchased for a total purchase price of approximately $17.3 million and $19.2 million, respectively, and a weighted average price of $69.61 and $69.09 per share, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, an aggregate of 0.5 million and 2.3 million shares, respectively, were repurchased for a total purchase price of approximately $22.3 million and $120.6 million, respectively, and a weighted average price of $44.58 and $52.32 per share, respectively. The maximum number of shares available to be repurchased under the stock repurchase program as of September 30, 2023 was 1,230,010 shares.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, shares of common stock at a total cost of $10.7 million and $12.7 million, respectively, were netted and surrendered as payment for minimum statutory withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of outstanding stock-based compensation awards. Shares surrendered by the participants in accordance with the applicable award agreements and plan are deemed repurchased and retired by us but are not part of our publicly announced share repurchase programs.

15. Earnings Per Share

We use the treasury stock method to calculate earnings per share as our currently issued non-vested RSUs and PSUs do not have participating rights.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands, except share and per share information):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Numerator
Net income	$	83,150	$	144,473	$	167,906	$	445,637
Denominator
Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic		31,962,884		32,196,589		31,967,672		32,850,647
Dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards		274,138		373,746		233,005		391,117
Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted		32,237,022		32,570,335		32,200,677		33,241,764
Earnings per share:
Basic	$	2.60	$	4.49	$	5.25	$	13.57
Diluted	$	2.58	$	4.44	$	5.21	$	13.41

Stock-based awards are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS in the event they are subject to unsatisfied performance conditions or are antidilutive. We excluded 0.9 million and 0.5 million common stock unit equivalents from diluted earnings per share during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and we excluded 0.8 million and 0.5 million common stock unit equivalents from diluted earnings per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to the PSUs for which performance conditions remained unsatisfied.

16. Commitments and Contingencies

Letters of Credit and Performance Bonds

In the normal course of business, we post letters of credit and performance and other bonds primarily related to our land development performance obligations with local municipalities. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $513.9 million and $574.8 million, respectively, in letters of credit and performance and other bonds issued and outstanding.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to claims and lawsuits that arise primarily in the ordinary course of business, which consist primarily of construction claims. It is the opinion of our management that if the claims have merit, parties other than the Company would be, at least in part, liable for the claims, and the eventual outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. When we believe that a loss is probable and estimable, we record a charge on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for our estimated loss.

Under various insurance policies, we have the ability to recoup costs in excess of applicable self-insured retentions. Estimates of such amounts are recorded in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet when recovery is probable. 

We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any claims and lawsuits will have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

As used in this Form 10-Q, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Century” or the “Company” refer to Century Communities, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and, unless the context otherwise requires, its subsidiaries and affiliates.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is intended to help the reader understand our Company, business, operations and present business environment and is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. We use certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are important for purposes of comparison to prior periods. This information is also used by our management to measure the profitability of our ongoing operations and analyze our business performance and trends.

Business Overview

Century is engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 18 states. In many of our projects, in addition to building homes, we are responsible for the entitlement and development of the underlying land. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Century Complete brands.

Our Century Communities brand offers a wide range of buyer profiles including: entry-level, first and second time move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade opportunities. Our Century Complete brand targets entry-level homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and generally provides no option or upgrade opportunities.

Our homebuilding operations are organized into the following five reportable segments: West, Mountain, Texas, Southeast, and Century Complete. Our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inspire Home Loans Inc., Parkway Title, LLC, and IHL Home Insurance Agency, LLC, which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services, respectively, primarily to our homebuyers, have been identified as our Financial Services reportable segment. Additionally, our wholly owned subsidiary, Century Living, LLC, is engaged in the development, construction and management of multi-family rental properties, currently all located in Colorado. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Century Living operations were engaged in construction on three multi-family projects in Colorado, which commenced construction in 2022. Century Living, LLC is included in our Corporate segment.

While we offer homes that appeal to a broad range of entry-level, move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, our offerings are heavily weighted towards providing affordable housing options in each of our homebuyer segments. Additionally, we prefer building move-in-ready homes over built-to-order homes, which we believe allows for a faster construction process, advantageous pricing with subcontractors, and shortened time period from home sale to home delivery, thus allowing our customers greater certainty on their financing and allowing us to more appropriately price the homes and deploy our capital. Of the 6,411 homes delivered during the first nine months of 2023, approximately 91% of our deliveries were made to entry-level homebuyers that were below the Federal Housing Administration-insured mortgage limits and approximately 98% of homes delivered were built as move-in ready homes.

Financial Overview

We generated solid financial results during the first nine months of 2023 and we are encouraged by the housing market conditions as compared to the second half of 2022, when increased mortgage interest rates, inflation, and macro-economic uncertainty considerably impacted the U.S. housing market. While inflation continued to impact the broader economy during the first nine months of 2023, homebuyers are adjusting to a more normalized higher interest rate environment, and we experienced more typical seasonality surrounding demand. Net new home contracts (new home contracts net of cancellations) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased 63.1% as compared to the prior year period. Further, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our cancellation rates were 16.2% and 15.8%, respectively, representing significant improvements from the cancellation rates we experienced in the latter half of 2022.

During the third quarter of 2023, we continued to experience improved cycle times and benefitted from reduced direct construction costs on our starts as compared to the high point of our direct construction costs during the second quarter of 2022. Further, during the second and third quarters of 2023, we reduced incentive offerings across our communities as compared to previous quarters, which along with improved construction costs and cycle times, contributed to an improvement to our homebuilding gross margin during the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the first and second quarters of 2023.

We anticipate the homebuilding markets in each of our operating segments will continue to be tied to both the macro-economic environment and the local economy. While we experienced strengthened market demand during the third quarter of 2023 compared to the latter half of 2022, we believe future demand for our homes is uncertain as future economic and market conditions are uncertain, in particular with respect to inflation; the impact of recent and potential for future increases to the federal funds interest rate by the Federal

19

Reserve; interest rates; availability and cost of mortgage loans to homebuyers; financial markets, credit and mortgage markets; the extent to which and how long government monetary directives, actions, and economic relief efforts will impact the U.S. economy, consumer confidence; wage growth; household formations; levels of new and existing homes for sale; prevailing home and rental prices; availability and cost of land, labor and construction materials; demographic trends; housing demand; and other factors, including those described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Specifically, a rise in interest rates increases the costs of owning a home and adversely affects the purchasing power of our customers and could decrease homebuyer confidence hindering not only demand for our homes, but also our ability to realize our backlog. A decrease in demand for our homes or an increase in cancellations due to increased interest rates or otherwise would adversely affect our operating results in future periods, including our net sales, home deliveries, gross margin, origination volume of and revenues from our Financial Services segment, and net income. As a result, our past performance may not be indicative of our future results.

Despite future macro-economic uncertainty, especially in relation to the interest rate environment, we believe we are well-positioned to benefit from the ongoing shortage of both new and resale homes available for purchase in our key markets and the favorable demographics that support the need for new affordable housing. We believe our operations are prepared to withstand volatility in future market conditions as a result of our product offerings which both span the home buying segment and focus on affordable price points, and our current and future inventories of attractive land positions. We have continued to focus on maintaining an appropriate balance of home and land inventories in relation to anticipated future demand, as well as prudent leverage, and, as a result, we believe we are well positioned to continue to execute on our strategy in order to optimize stockholder returns.

Results of Operations

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we generated $112.0 million and $224.8 million, respectively, in income before income tax expense, as compared to $172.1 million and $574.5 million, respectively, in the respective prior year periods. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we generated net income of $83.2 million, or $2.58 per diluted share, and $167.9 million, or $5.21 per diluted share, respectively, as compared to $144.5 million, or $4.44 per diluted share, and $445.6 million, or $13.41 per diluted share, respectively, in the respective prior year periods.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we generated total revenues of $889.4 million and $2.5 billion, respectively, driven primarily by home sales revenue, as compared to $1.1 billion and $3.3 billion, respectively, in the respective prior year periods. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we delivered 2,264 and 6,411 homes, respectively, with an average sales price of $382.1 thousand and $377.3 thousand, respectively. The number of homes delivered decreased by 13.9% and 16.6%, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods, which were primarily driven by fewer homes available for delivery given a decrease in home starts during the latter half of 2022. Average sales price decreased 10.2% and 10.5% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the respective prior year periods.

We ended the third quarter of 2023 with no amounts outstanding under our revolving line of credit, $193.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, $52.5 million of cash held in escrow, a homebuilding debt to capital ratio of 30.8%, and a net homebuilding debt to net capital ratio of 25.3%. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we paid quarterly cash dividends to our stockholders of $0.23 per share, a 15% increase from the quarterly dividends paid during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $0.20 per share.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we generated financial services revenue of $23.6 million, representing an increase of 1.6% as compared to the prior year period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we generated financial services revenue of $63.8 million, a decrease of 11.9% as compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by reduced margins on loans sold to third parties period over period and a decrease in the number of mortgages originated during the current year period, partially offset by a smaller fair value markdown on our loan pipeline as compared to the prior year period, and increased revenue related to discount points compared to the prior year period.

Our Century Living operations are engaged in construction on three multi-family projects in Colorado, which commenced in 2022 and comprise over 900 total units. The first multi-family property consisting of over 200 units became available for leasing during the third quarter of 2023, and we anticipate the remaining projects will be available for leasing during 2024.

West

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our West segment generated income before income tax expense of $31.4 million and $54.4 million, respectively, a 38.4% and 72.8% decrease, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods. These decreases were primarily driven by decreases in home sales revenue of $87.2 million and $375.5 million, respectively. The revenue decreases during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily driven by a 25.7% and 38.5% decrease, respectively, in the number of homes delivered, and a 11.5% and 12.7% decrease, respectively, in the average sales price per home. For both the three- and nine-month comparisons, the decreases in the number of homes delivered were primarily driven by fewer homes available for delivery given a decrease in home starts during the latter half of 2022. For both the three- and nine-month comparisons, the average sales price decreases were driven by the mix of deliveries and pricing to market within individual communities. For the three-month comparison, the decrease in the percentage of income before income tax expense to home sales revenue was primarily a result of decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base, and for the nine-month comparison, the decrease in the percentage of income before income tax expense to home sales revenue was primarily a result of (1) decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base and (2) decreased gross margins on home sales.

Mountain

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Mountain segment generated income before income tax expense of $25.4 million and $77.9 million, respectively, a 50.2% and 51.1% decrease, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods. These decreases were primarily driven by decreases in home sales revenue of $80.9 million and $162.0 million, respectively.

22

The revenue decreases during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily driven by a 16.0% and 9.6% decrease, respectively, in the number of homes delivered, and a 14.4% and 10.6% decrease, respectively, in the average sales price per home. For both the three- and nine-month comparisons, the decrease in the number of homes delivered was primarily driven by fewer homes available for delivery given a decrease in home starts during the latter half of 2022, and the average sales price decreases were driven by the mix of deliveries and pricing to market within individual communities. For the three-month comparison, the decrease in the percentage of income before income tax expense to home sales revenue was primarily a result of decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base, and for the nine-month comparison, the decrease in the percentage of income before income tax expense to home sales revenue was primarily a result of (1) decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base and (2) decreased gross margins on home sales.

Texas

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Texas segment generated income before income tax expense of $16.4 million and $31.5 million, respectively, an 18.5% and 57.2% decrease, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods. For both the three- and nine-month comparisons, the decreases were primarily driven by a decrease in home sales revenue of $21.1 million and $96.4 million, respectively. The revenue decrease during the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven a 16.6% decrease in the average sales price per home, and the revenue decrease during the nine months ended September 20, 2023 was primarily driven by a 10.2% decrease in the number of homes delivered and a 13.9% decrease in the average sales price per home. For both the three- and nine-month comparisons, the average sales price decreases were driven by the mix of deliveries and pricing to market within individual communities, and for the nine-month comparison, the decrease in the number of homes delivered was primarily driven by fewer homes available for delivery given a decrease in home starts during the latter half of 2022. For the nine-month comparison, the decrease in the percentage of income before income tax expense to home sales revenue was primarily a result of (1) decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base and (2) decreased gross margins on home sales.

Southeast

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Southeast segment generated income before income tax expense of $33.7 million and $63.7 million, respectively, a 12.2% and 41.1% decrease, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods. For the three- and nine-month comparisons, the decreases were primarily driven by a decrease in home sales revenue of $31.5 million and $157.1 million, respectively. The revenue decreases during the three- and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily driven by a 10.6% and 28.7% decrease, respectively, in the number of homes delivered, and a 6.1% and 1.7% decrease, respectively, in the average sales price per home. For the three- and nine-month comparisons, the decrease in the number of homes delivered was primarily driven by fewer homes available for delivery given a decrease in home starts during the latter half of 2022. For both the three- and nine-month comparisons, the average sales price decreases were driven by the mix of deliveries and pricing to market within individual communities. For the nine-month comparison, the decrease in the percentage of income before income tax expense to home sales revenue was primarily a result of (1) decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base and (2) decreased gross margins on home sales.

Century Complete

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Century Complete segment generated income before income tax expense of $30.9 million and $61.2 million, respectively, a 9.0% and 32.9% decrease, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year periods. For the three- and nine-month comparisons, the decreases were primarily driven by a decrease in home sales revenue of $32.8 million and $31.5 million, respectively. The revenue decreases during the three- and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily driven by a 15.5% and 8.0% decrease, respectively, in the number of homes delivered, and partially offset by a 2.6% and 3.3% increase, respectively, in the average sales price per home. For the three- and nine-month comparisons, the decreases in the number of homes delivered were primarily driven by fewer homes available for delivery given a decrease in home starts during the latter half of 2022. For both the three- and nine-month comparisons, the average sales price increases were driven by the mix of deliveries and pricing to market within individual communities. For the nine-month comparison, the decrease in the percentage of income before income tax expense to home sales revenue was primarily a result of (1) decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base and (2) decreased gross margins on home sales.

Financial Services

Our Financial Services segment originates mortgages for primarily our homebuyers, and as such, performance typically correlates to the number of homes delivered. Our Financial Services segment generated income before income tax of $12.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a 30.5% increase over the prior year period. This increase was primarily the result of a $2.5 million decrease in financial services costs due to decreased headcount period over period. Our Financial Services segment generated income before income tax of $29.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a nominal increase over the prior year period, primarily the result of a $9.3 million decrease in financial services costs due to decreased headcount as compared to the prior year period, partially offset by an $8.6 million decrease in financial services revenue as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in financial services revenue was primarily driven by reduced margins on loans sold to third parties period over period and a 17.1% decrease in the number

23

of mortgages originated during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and partially offset by a smaller fair value markdown on our loan pipeline as compared to the prior year period, and increased revenue related to discount points compared to the prior year period.

The following table presents selected operational data for our Financial Services segment in relation to our loan origination activities (dollars in thousands):

Corporate

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Corporate segment generated losses of $38.0 million and $93.7 million, respectively, as compared to losses of $31.8 million and $87.2 million, respectively, during the same respective period in 2022. These increases in losses were primarily driven by adjustments to increase stock-based compensation expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $7.4 million and $10.8 million, respectively, to reflect an increased estimate in the number of shares which will ultimately vest and be issued under certain performance share awards.

Homebuilding Gross Margin

(dollars in thousands)

Homebuilding gross margin represents home sales revenues less cost of home sales revenues and inventory impairment, if applicable. Our homebuilding gross margin percentage, which represents homebuilding gross margin divided by home sales revenues, decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 to 24.6% and 21.0%, respectively, as compared to 24.8% and 27.0% during the same respective periods in 2022.  The decreases for the three and nine-month comparisons were primarily driven by deliveries during the period that carried both higher incentives and elevated construction costs due to homes commencing construction during high costs periods in 2022.

In the following table, we calculate our homebuilding gross margin, as adjusted to exclude inventory impairment, if applicable, and interest in cost of home sales revenues.

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2023		%		2022		%
Home sales revenues	$	865,065	100.0	%	$	1,118,588	100.0	%

See the reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measure and other information under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

 For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage excluding inventory impairment and interest in cost of home sales revenues, was 25.8% and 22.3%, respectively, as compared to 26.0% and 28.2% for the same respective periods in 2022. We believe the above information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that indebtedness, inventory impairment (if applicable), and acquisitions (if applicable) have on our homebuilding gross margin and allows for comparability of our homebuilding gross margins to previous periods and our competitors.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

(dollars in thousands)
	Three Months Ended September 30,						Change
	2023			2022			Amount		%

As a percentage of home sales revenue		13.0	%		9.9	%

Our selling, general and administrative expense remained relatively consistent for the three months ended September 30, 2023, and decreased $6.1 million for nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same respective periods in 2022. The increase for the three month comparison was primarily attributable to an adjustment of $7.4 million in stock-based compensation expense to reflect an increased estimate in the number of shares which will ultimately vest and be issued under certain performance share awards, partially offset by various decreases in other expenses, including advertising. The decrease for the nine month comparison was primarily

25

attributable to a decrease of $9.2 million in salaries and wages due to decreased headcount and a decrease of $4.7 million in internal and external commission expense, partially offset by $10.8 million in stock-based compensation expense to reflect an increased estimate in the number of shares which will ultimately vest and be issued under certain performance share awards.. As a percentage of home sales revenue, our selling, general and administrative expense increased 300 basis points and 310 basis points, respectively, during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, driven primarily by decreased revenue on a partially fixed cost base.

Income Tax Expense

At the end of each interim period, we are required to estimate our annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year and to use that rate to provide for income taxes for the current year-to-date reporting period. Our 2023 estimated annual effective tax rate, before discrete items of 26.4%, is driven by our blended federal and state statutory rate of 24.8%, and certain permanent differences between GAAP and tax, including disallowed deductions for executive compensation offset by estimated federal energy home credits for current year home deliveries, which combined resulted in a net increase of 1.6%.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our estimated annual rate of 26.4% was benefitted by discrete items which had a net impact of decreasing our rate by 1.1%, including federal energy home tax credits claimed for prior year home deliveries in excess of previous estimates and the impact of excess tax benefits for vested stock-based compensation.

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of 25.3% increased by 290 basis points as compared to our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2022 of 22.4%. The increase in our effective tax rate is primarily a result of the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 during the third quarter of 2022, which modified the energy efficient home credit beginning with homes closed on or after January 1, 2023 and provided for more stringent energy standards than previous periods, resulting in fewer closed homes qualifying for energy efficient home credits, as well as the impact of disallowed deductions for executive compensation during 2023.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $28.8 million and $27.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $56.9 million and $128.9 million, respectively.

Segment Assets

Commencing in the first quarter of 2023, our Century Complete operations in Texas were realigned and are now managed under our Texas segment. Accordingly, we have presented segment information under this new basis as of September 30, 2023, and we have restated the corresponding segment information for those segments as of December 31, 2022.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, our absorption rate increased by 40.0% to 2.8 per month as compared to the same period in 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our absorption rate decreased by 12.1% to 2.9 per month as compared to the same period in 2022. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we experienced cancellation rates of 16.2% and 15.8% respectively, which represent a significant reduction from cancellation rates we experienced in the latter half of 2022 as we believe homebuyers are adjusting to the higher interest rate environment and our strategy of selling homes later in the construction cycle has benefitted our cancellation rate.

Backlog reflects the number of homes, net of cancellations, for which we have entered into a sales contract with a customer but for which we have not yet delivered the home. At September 30, 2023, we had 1,887 homes in backlog with a total value of $707.2 million, which represents decreases of 45.4% and 48.7%, respectively, as compared to 3,455 homes in backlog with a total value of $1.4 billion at September 30, 2022.  The decrease in backlog dollar value is primarily attributable to the decrease in backlog units, partially due to our strategy of selling homes later in the construction cycle and in part due to a 6.1% decrease in the average sales price of homes in backlog.

Supplemental Guarantor Information

Our 6.750% senior notes due 2027 (which we collectively refer to as our “2027 Notes”) and our 3.875% senior notes due 2029 (which we collectively refer to as our “2029 Notes” and together with the 2027 Notes, the “Senior Notes”) are our unsecured senior obligations and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by substantially all of our direct and indirect wholly-owned operating subsidiaries (which we refer to collectively as “Guarantors”). Our subsidiaries associated with our Financial Services operations (referred to as “Non-Guarantors”) do not guarantee the Senior Notes. The guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the Guarantors that rank equal with all existing and future senior debt of the Guarantors and senior to all subordinated debt of the Guarantors. The guarantees are effectively subordinated to any secured debt of the Guarantors. As of September 30, 2023, Century Communities, Inc. had outstanding $1.0 billion in total principal amount of Senior Notes.

Each of the indentures governing our Senior Notes provides that the guarantees of a Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged: (1) upon any sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of all of the equity interests of such Guarantor after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a “Restricted Subsidiary” (as defined in the respective indentures), which sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition does not constitute an “Asset Sale” (as defined in the respective indentures) or is made in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture; (2) upon any sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of all of the assets of such Guarantor, which sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition does not constitute an Asset Sale or is made in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture; provided, that after such sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition, such Guarantor is an “Immaterial Subsidiary” (as defined in the respective indentures); (3) unless a default has occurred and is continuing, upon the release or discharge of such Guarantor from its guarantee of any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company and the Guarantors so long as such Guarantor would not then otherwise be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to the applicable indenture; provided that if such Guarantor has incurred any indebtedness in reliance on its status as a Guarantor in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable Indenture, such Guarantor’s obligations under such indebtedness, as the case may be, so incurred are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Guarantor) in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable Indenture; (4) upon the designation of such Guarantor as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” (as defined in the respective Indentures), in accordance with the applicable indenture; (5) if the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option under the applicable indenture or if the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors are discharged in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture, upon such exercise or discharge; or (6) in connection with the dissolution of such Guarantor under applicable law in accordance with the applicable indenture.

If a guarantor were to become a debtor in a case under the US Bankruptcy Code, a court may decline to enforce its guarantee of the Senior Notes. This may occur when, among other factors, it is found that the guarantor originally received less than fair consideration for the guarantee and the guarantor would be rendered insolvent by enforcement of the guarantee. On the basis of historical financial information, operating history and other factors, we believe that each of the guarantors, after giving effect to the issuance of its guarantee

29

of the Senior Notes when the guarantee was issued, was not insolvent and did not and has not incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. The Company cannot predict, however, what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or that a court would agree with our conclusions in this regard.

Only the 2027 Notes and the related guarantees are registered securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The offer and sale of the 2029 Notes and the related guarantees were not and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and instead were issued in reliance upon an exemption from such registration. Unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act, neither the 2029 Notes nor the related guarantees may be offered and sold only in transactions that are exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and the applicable securities laws of any other jurisdiction.

The Guarantors’ condensed supplemental financial information is presented in this report as if the Senior Note guarantees existed during the periods presented pursuant to applicable SEC rules and guidance. If any Guarantors are released from the guarantees in future periods, the changes are reflected prospectively. We have determined that separate, full financial statements of the Guarantors would not be material to investors, and accordingly, supplemental financial information is presented below.

The following summarized financial information is presented for Century Communities, Inc. and the Guarantor Subsidiaries on a combined basis after eliminating intercompany transactions and balances among Century Communities, Inc. and the Guarantor Subsidiaries, as well as their investment in, and equity in earnings from Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting estimates are those that we believe are both significant and require us to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because we need to estimate the effect of inherently uncertain matters. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experiences and various other factors that we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and the estimates included in our financial statements might be impacted if we used different assumptions or conditions. A summary of our critical accounting policies is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 2, 2023, in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies.” 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our liquidity, consisting of our cash and cash equivalents and cash held in escrow and revolving line of credit availability, was $1.0 billion as of September 30, 2023 and $1.2 billion as of December 31, 2022.

Our principal uses of capital for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were our land purchases, land development, home construction, and the payment of routine liabilities.

Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the 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, and construction of model homes, roads, utilities, general landscaping and other amenities. Because these costs are a component of our inventory and not recognized in our consolidated statements of operations until a home closes, we incur significant cash outlays prior to our recognition of earnings. In the later stages of community development, cash inflows may significantly exceed earnings reported for financial statement purposes, as the cash outflow associated with home and land construction was previously incurred. From a liquidity standpoint, we continue to acquire and develop lots in our markets when they meet our current investment criteria.

Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resources

We use funds generated by operations, available borrowings under our revolving line of credit facility, and proceeds from issuances of debt or equity, including our at-the-market facility, to fund our short term working capital obligations and fund our purchases of land, as well as land development, home construction activities, and other cash needs.

Our Financial Services operations use funds generated from operations and availability under our mortgage repurchase facilities to finance its operations, including originations of mortgage loans to our homebuyers.

Our Century Living operations use excess cash from our operations, as well as project specific secured financing under construction loan agreements to fund development of multi-family projects.

We believe that we will be able to fund our current liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months with our cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and cash expected to be available from our revolving line of credit or through accessing debt or equity capital, as needed or appropriate, although no assurance can be provided that such additional debt or equity capital will be available or on acceptable terms based on the macro-economy and market conditions at the time. In a higher interest rate environment, we may incur additional interest expense on borrowings that bear floating interest rates, such as our revolving line of credit. We believe we are well positioned from a cash and liquidity standpoint to operate in an uncertain environment, and to pursue other ways to properly deploy capital to enhance returns, which may include taking advantage of strategic opportunities as they arise.

Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources

Beyond the next twelve months, we believe that our principal uses of capital will be land and inventory purchases and other expenditures, as well as principal and interest payments on our long-term debt obligations. We believe that we will be able to fund our long-term liquidity needs with cash generated from operations and cash expected to be available from our revolving line of credit or through accessing debt or equity capital, as needed or appropriate, although no assurance can be provided that such additional debt or equity capital will be available, or on favorable terms, especially in light of rising interest rates. In a higher interest rate environment, we may incur additional interest expense on borrowings that bear floating interest rates, such as under our revolving line of credit, repurchase facilities, and construction loan agreements. To the extent these sources of capital are insufficient to meet our needs, we may also conduct additional public or private offerings of our securities, refinance debt, or dispose of certain assets to fund our operating activities and capital needs.

31

Material Cash Requirements

In the normal course of business, we enter into contracts and commitments that obligate us to make payments in the future. These obligations impact our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, there were no material changes to the contractual obligations we previously described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 that was filed with the SEC on February 2, 2023.

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land purchase contracts in order to procure lots for the construction of our homes. We are subject to customary obligations associated with entering into contracts for the purchase of land and improved lots. Purchase and option contracts for the purchase of land enable us to defer acquiring portions of properties owned by third parties until we have determined whether to exercise our option, which may serve to reduce our financial risks associated with long-term land holdings. These purchase contracts typically require a cash 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 land sellers and others as a method of acquiring land in staged takedowns, to help us manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings, and to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources. Option contracts generally require payment by us of a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at pre-determined prices. Our obligations with respect to purchase contracts and option contracts are generally limited to the forfeiture of the related non-refundable cash deposits.

As of September 30, 2023, we had outstanding purchase contracts and option contracts for 38,333 lots totaling approximately $1.8 billion and we had $46.8 million of deposits for land contracts, of which $19.5 million were non-refundable cash deposits pertaining to land contracts. For contracts for which cash deposits were non-refundable, and subject to the terms of the outstanding contracts continuing to meet our investment criteria, we currently anticipate performing on the majority of our purchase and option contracts during the next 24 months. Our performance, including the timing and amount of purchase, if any, under these outstanding purchase and option contracts is subject to change and dependent on future market conditions. Our utilization of land option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into option takedown arrangements, the availability of capital to financial intermediaries 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.

Outstanding Debt Obligations and Debt Service Requirements

One of our principal liquidity needs is the payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. Our outstanding indebtedness is described in detail in Note 9 – Debt in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We are required to meet certain covenants, and as of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all such covenants and requirements under the agreements governing our revolving line of credit, mortgage repurchase facilities, and construction loan agreements. See Note 9 – Debt in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.

Our outstanding debt obligations included the following as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):  

	September 30,		December 31,
	2023		2022

⁽¹⁾The carrying value of the senior notes reflects the impact of premiums, discounts, and issuance costs that are amortized to interest cost over the respective terms of the senior notes.

⁽²⁾As of September 30, 2023, other financing obligations included $30.0 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings, as well as $28.8 million outstanding under construction loan agreements, as described below. As of December 31, 2022, other financing obligations included $20.7 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings, as well as $7.4 million outstanding under construction loan agreements.

We may from time to time seek to refinance or increase our outstanding debt or retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such

32

repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may or may not be material during any particular reporting period.

Letters of Credit and Performance Bonds

In the normal course of business, we post letters of credit and performance and other bonds primarily related to our land development performance obligations with local municipalities. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $513.9 million and $574.8 million, respectively, in letters of credit and performance and other bonds issued and outstanding. Although significant development and construction activities have been completed related to the improvements at these sites, the letters of credit and performance and other bonds are not generally fully released until all development and construction activities are completed.

Construction Loan Agreements

Certain wholly owned subsidiaries of Century Living, LLC, are parties to construction loan agreements entered into during 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 with various banks, (which we collectively refer to as “the lenders”). The three construction loan agreements collectively provide that we may borrow up to an aggregate of $187.6 million from the lenders for purposes of construction of multi-family projects in Colorado, with advances made by the lenders upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. Borrowings under the construction loan agreements bear interest at various rates, including a fixed rate, and floating interest rates per annum equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (which we refer to as “SOFR”) and the Bloomberg Short-term Bank Yield Index, plus an applicable margin. The outstanding principal balances and all accrued and unpaid interest is due on varying maturity dates through March 17, 2028, with certain of the construction loan agreements allowing for the option to extend the maturity dates for a period of 12 months if certain conditions are satisfied. The construction loan agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants (including covenants related to construction completion, and limitations on the use of loan proceeds, transfers of land, equipment, and improvements), as well as customary events of default. Interest on our construction loan agreements is capitalized to the multi-family properties assets included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets while the related multi-family rental properties are being actively developed.

As of September 30, 2023, $28.8 million was outstanding under the construction loan agreements, with borrowings that bore a weighted average interest rate of 7.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we were in compliance with all covenants thereunder.

Revolving Line of Credit

On May 21, 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (which we refer to as the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”) with Texas Capital Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer, and the lenders party thereto. The Second A&R Credit Agreement provides us with a senior unsecured revolving line of credit (which we refer to as the “revolving line of credit”) of up to $800.0 million, and unless terminated earlier, will mature on April 30, 2026. The revolving line of credit includes a $250.0 million sublimit for standby letters of credit. Under the terms of the Second A&R Credit Agreement, we are entitled to request an increase in the size of the revolving line of credit by an amount not exceeding $200.0 million. Our obligations under the Second A&R Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (including limitations on our ability to grant liens, incur additional debt, pay dividends, redeem our common stock, make certain investments and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions), as well as customary events of default. On December 21, 2022, we entered into a First Modification Agreement with Texas Capital Bank, as Administrative Agent, amending the Second A&R Credit Agreement pursuant to which, effective January 3, 2023, all existing borrowings using an interest rate based on a LIBOR reference rate had the interest rate replaced with one based on an adjusted term SOFR reference rate, which equals the greater of (i) 0.50% or (ii) the one-month quotation of the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 0.10%.

As of September 30, 2023, no amounts were outstanding under our revolving line of credit and were in compliance with all covenants under the Second A&R Credit Agreement.

Mortgage Repurchase Facilities – Financial Services

Inspire is a party to a mortgage warehouse facility with J.P. Morgan, which provides Inspire with uncommitted repurchase facilities of up to an aggregate of $200.0 million as of September 30, 2023, secured by the mortgage loans financed thereunder, and a maturity date through January 19, 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we terminated our mortgage warehouse facility agreement with Comerica, which provided uncommitted repurchase facilities of up to an aggregate of $75.0 million, with outstanding principal and interest due on December 29, 2023. The repurchase facilities bore a weighted average interest rate of 6.80% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

33

Amounts outstanding under the repurchase facilities are not guaranteed by us or any of our subsidiaries, and the agreements contain various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Inspire that are customary for arrangements of this type. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $162.1 million and $197.6 million outstanding under the repurchase facilities, respectively, and were in compliance with all covenants thereunder.

At-the-Market Offerings

We are party to a Distribution Agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Fifth Third Securities, Inc. (which we refer to as the “Distribution Agreement”), as sales agents pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million from time to time through any of the sales agents party thereto in “at-the-market” offerings, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Distribution Agreement. The Distribution Agreement will remain in full force and effect until terminated by either party pursuant to the terms of the agreement or such date that the maximum offering amount has been sold in accordance with the terms of the agreement. We did not sell or issue any shares of our common stock during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and as of September 30, 2023, all $100.0 million remained available for sale.

Stock Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program in 2018, under which we may repurchase up to 4.5 million shares of our outstanding common stock. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. The actual manner, timing, amount and value of repurchases under the stock repurchase program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock, trading volume, other capital management objectives and opportunities, applicable legal requirements, applicable tax effects including the 1% excise tax instituted under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, and general market and economic conditions.

We intend to finance any stock repurchases through available cash and our revolving line of credit. Repurchases also may be made under a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would permit shares to be repurchased when we otherwise may be precluded from doing so because of self-imposed trading blackout periods or other regulatory restrictions. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and may be extended, suspended or discontinued by our Board of Directors at any time without notice at our discretion. All shares of common stock repurchased under the program will be cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, an aggregate of 247.8 thousand and 278.2 thousand shares, respectively, were repurchased for a total purchase price of approximately $17.3 million and $19.2 million, respectively, and a weighted average price of $69.61 and $69.09 per share, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, an aggregate of 0.5 million and 2.3 million shares, respectively, were repurchased for a total purchase price of approximately $22.3 million and $120.6 million, respectively, and a weighted average price of $44.58 and $52.32 per share, respectively. The maximum number of shares available to be repurchased under the stock repurchase program as of September 30, 2023 was 1,230,010 shares.

34

Dividends

The following table sets forth cash dividends declared by our Board of Directors to holders of record of our common stock during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively (in thousands, except per share information):

			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
			Cash Dividends Declared and Paid
Declaration Date	Record Date	Paid Date	Per Share		Amount
February 8, 2023	March 1, 2023	March 15, 2023	$	0.23	$	7,365
May 17, 2023	May 31, 2023	June 14, 2023	$	0.23	$	7,368
August 16, 2023	August 30, 2023	September 13, 2023	$	0.23	$	7,341
			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
			Cash Dividends Declared and Paid
Declaration Date	Record Date	Paid Date	Per Share		Amount
February 16, 2022	March 2, 2022	March 16, 2022	$	0.20	$	6,657
May 18, 2022	June 1, 2022	June 15, 2022	$	0.20	$	6,568
August 17, 2022	August 31, 2022	September 14, 2022	$	0.20	$	6,455

The declaration and payment of future cash dividends on our common stock, whether at current levels or at all, are at the discretion of our Board of Directors and depend upon, among other things, our expected future earnings, cash flows, capital requirements, access to external financing, debt structure and any adjustments thereto, operational and financial investment strategy and general financial condition, as well as general business conditions.

Cash Flows— Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the comparison of cash flows is as follows:

Our primary sources of cash flows from operations are from the sale of single-family attached and detached homes and mortgages. Our primary uses of cash flows from operations are the acquisition of land and expenditures associated with the construction of our single-family attached and detached homes and the origination of mortgages held for sale. Net cash provided by operating activities was $33.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $67.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net cash provided by operations is primarily a result of reduced expenditures related to land acquisition and expenditures associated with the construction of homes during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This reduction was offset by (1) a decrease in net income of $277.7 million and (2) a reduction in our mortgage loans held for sale of $36.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to a reduction in mortgage loans held for sale of $142.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net cash used in investing activities increased $37.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year period. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to a $41.7 million increase in expenditures related to the development, construction, and management of multi-family rental properties by our wholly owned subsidiary, Century Living, LLC, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year period.

Net cash used in financing activities decreased $51.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to (1) a $101.3 million decrease in net payments on the repurchase facilities in the first nine months of 2023 as compared to the prior year period and (2) $120.6 million of repurchases of common stock during the first nine months of 2022, as compared to $19.2 million of repurchases of common stock during the first nine months of 2023, partially offset by $165.0 million in net borrowings on the line of credit during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to no net borrowings during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was $210.1 million, as compared to $308.5 million as of December 31, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this Form 10-Q, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, net homebuilding debt to net capital, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented to provide investors additional information to facilitate the comparison of our past and present operations. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they are used to evaluate our performance on a comparable year-over-year basis. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP measures and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive or standard set of accounting rules or principles. Accordingly, the calculation of our non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of other companies using the same or similar names limiting, to some extent, the usefulness of such measures for comparison purposes. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP. These measures should only be used to evaluate our financial results in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Accordingly, we qualify our use of non-GAAP financial information in a statement when non-GAAP financial information is presented.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The following table presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures we use as a supplemental measure in evaluating operating performance. We define EBITDA as net income before (i) income tax expense, (ii) interest in cost of home sales revenues, (iii) other interest expense (income), and (iv) depreciation and amortization expense. We define adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before loss on debt extinguishment (if applicable), and inventory impairment (if applicable). We believe EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, and items considered to be non-recurring. Accordingly, our management believes that these measurements are useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. Neither EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, consolidated net income in accordance with GAAP as a measure of performance. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Each of our EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is limited as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Net Homebuilding Debt to Net Capital

The following table presents our ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.  We calculate this by dividing net homebuilding debt (homebuilding debt less cash and cash equivalents, and cash held in escrow) by net capital (net homebuilding debt plus total stockholders’ equity). Homebuilding debt is our total debt minus our outstanding borrowings under our construction loan agreements and our repurchase facilities. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the ratio of debt to total capital. We believe the ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital is a relevant and useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of our ability to obtain external financing.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share (which we refer to as “Adjusted EPS”) are non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating our operating results and understanding our operating trends without the effect of certain non-recurring items. We believe excluding certain non-recurring items provides more comparable assessment of our financial results from period to period. We define adjusted net income as consolidated net income before (i) income tax expense, (ii) inventory impairment, if applicable (iii) restructuring costs, if applicable and (iv) loss on debt extinguishment, if applicable, less adjusted income tax expense, calculated using our estimated annual effective tax rate after discrete items for the applicable period. Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by weighted average common shares – diluted.

ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Interest Rates

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our Second A&R Credit Agreement and construction loan agreements.

On December 21, 2022, we entered into a First Modification Agreement with Texas Capital Bank (formerly known as Texas Capital Bank, National Association), as Administrative Agent, amending the Second A&R Credit Agreement. Per the First Modification Agreement, effective January 3, 2023, all existing borrowings using an interest rate based on a LIBOR reference rate had the interest rate replaced with one based on an adjusted term SOFR reference rate, which equals the greater of (i) 0.50% or (ii) the one-month quotation of the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 0.10%.

Borrowings under the construction loan agreements bear interest at various rates, including a fixed rate, and floating interest rates per annum equal to the SOFR and the Bloomberg Short-term Bank Yield Index, plus an applicable margin.

For fixed rate debt, such as our senior notes, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flows. As interest rates increase, the fair value of the debt instrument will decrease.

Our Financial Services business utilizes mortgage backed securities forward commitments, option contracts and investor commitments to protect the value of rate-locked commitments and loans held for sale from fluctuations in mortgage-related interest rates. To mitigate interest risk associated with loans held for sale, we typically use derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposure to risk from the time a borrower locks a loan until the time the loan is securitized. We also typically hedge our interest rate exposure through entering into interest rate swap futures.

Inflation

Our homebuilding operations have been and may continue to be adversely impacted by inflation, primarily from higher land, financing, labor, material, and construction costs. In addition, inflation has led and could continue to lead to higher mortgage rates, which has and could continue to significantly affect the affordability of mortgage financing to homebuyers and lead to weakened demand for our homes, as well as increased cancellations compared to prior year periods. Inflation remained elevated during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year periods, and the Federal Reserve continued to raise the federal funds interest rate during the first nine months of 2023, which continued to impact interest rates on 30-year fixed mortgages. Due to higher mortgage rates, we were no longer able to offset cost increases with higher home selling prices in the first nine months of 2023.

Seasonality

Historically, the homebuilding industry experiences seasonal fluctuations in quarterly operating results and capital requirements. We typically experience the highest new home order activity during the spring, although this activity is also highly dependent on the number of active selling communities, timing of new community openings and other market factors. Since it historically has taken four to eight months to construct a new home, we typically deliver more homes in the second half of the year as spring and summer home orders convert to home deliveries. 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 our cash receipts from home deliveries occurs during the second half of the year. We expect this seasonal pattern, especially with respect to sales, to return this year after being obscured by the COVID-driven sales boom that began in 2020 and continued until the interest rate led softening in the second half of 2022, and to continue over the long term, although it may be affected by volatility in the homebuilding industry, supply chain challenges, and changes in demand for our homes. 

ITEM 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our co-principal executive officers and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (which we refer to as the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2023, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our co-principal executive officers and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2023 in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

39

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes during the third quarter of 2023 in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Because of the nature of the homebuilding business, we and certain of our subsidiaries and affiliates have been named as defendants in various claims, complaints and other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of our management, the outcome of these ordinary course matters will not have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A.     RISK FACTORS.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 that was filed with the SEC on February 2, 2023, other than the revised risk factor below:

Global economic and political instability and conflicts could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

The global economic slowdown, inflation, rising interest rates and the prospects for recession, as well as recent and potential future disruptions in access to bank deposits or lending commitments due to bank failure, could materially and adversely affect our liquidity, our business, financial condition and results of operations. The closures of certain regional banks during the first half of 2023 and their placement into receivership with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) created bank-specific and broader financial institution liquidity risk and concerns. Although the Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC jointly released a statement that depositors at these banks would have access to their funds, even those in excess of the standard FDIC insurance limits, future adverse developments with respect to specific financial institutions or the broader financial services industry may lead to market-wide liquidity shortages. The failure of any bank with which we do business could reduce the amount of cash we have available for our operations or delay our ability to access such funds. Any such failure may increase the possibility of a sustained deterioration of financial market liquidity, or illiquidity at clearing, cash management and/or custodial financial institutions. In the event we have a commercial relationship with a bank that has failed or is otherwise distressed, we may experience delays or other issues in meeting our financial obligations. If other banks and financial institutions enter receivership or become insolvent in the future in response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents and investments may be threatened and could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Additionally, our business could be adversely affected by unstable economic and political conditions as well as geopolitical conflicts. While we do not have any customer or direct supplier relationships in foreign countries experiencing war, current military conflicts, and related sanctions, as well as export controls or actions that may be initiated by nations (e.g., potential cyber attacks, disruption of energy flows, etc.) and other potential uncertainties could adversely affect our supply chain by causing shortages or increases in costs for materials necessary to construct homes and/or increases to the price of gasoline and other fuels. In addition, such events could cause higher interest rates, inflation or general economic uncertainty, which could negatively impact our business partners, employees or customers, or otherwise adversely impact our business.

(referred to as the “Issuer”) had $500 million principal amount outstanding of 3.875% Senior Notes due August 2029 (referred to collectively as the “2029 Notes”) and $500 million principal amount outstanding of 6.75% Senior Notes due June 2027 (referred to collectively as the “2027 Notes” and collectively with the 2029 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Issuer and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by substantially all of the Issuer’s direct and indirect wholly-owned operating subsidiaries (referred to collectively as “Guarantors”).

Basis of Presentation

1. Basis of Presentation

Century Communities, Inc. (which we refer to as “we,” “CCS,” or the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 18 states. In many of our projects, in addition to building homes, we are responsible for the entitlement and development of the underlying land. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Century Complete brands. Our Century Communities brand targets a wide range of buyer profiles including: entry-level, first and second time move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade opportunities. Our Century Complete brand targets entry-level homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and generally provides no option or upgrade opportunities.

Our homebuilding operations are organized into the following five reportable segments: West, Mountain, Texas, Southeast, and Century Complete. Our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inspire Home Loans Inc., Parkway Title, LLC, and IHL Home Insurance Agency, LLC, which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services, respectively, primarily to our homebuyers, have been identified as our Financial Services segment. Additionally, our wholly owned subsidiary, Century Living, LLC, is engaged in the development, construction and management of multi-family rental properties, currently all located in Colorado. Century Living, LLC is included in our Corporate segment.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (which we refer to as “GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (which we refer to as the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 that was filed with the SEC on February 2, 2023.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest, and variable interest entities for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We do not have any variable interest entities in which we are deemed the primary beneficiary.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

‎Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

There are no recent accounting standards that are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Reporting Segments

Our homebuilding operations are engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 18 states. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Century Complete brands. Our Century Communities brand is managed by geographic location, and each of our four geographic regions offers a wide range of buyer profiles including: entry-level, first and second time move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade selections. Each of our four geographic regions is considered a separate operating segment. Our Century Complete brand targets entry-level homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the

internet, and generally provides no option or upgrade selections. Our Century Complete brand currently has operations in 11 states and it is considered a separate operating segment.

The management of our four Century Communities geographic regions and Century Complete reports to our chief operating decision makers (which we refer to as “CODMs”), the Co-Chief Executive Officers of our Company. The CODMs review the results of our operations, including total revenue and income before income tax expense to determine profitability and to allocate resources. Accordingly, we have presented our homebuilding operations as the following five reportable segments:

West (California and Washington)

Mountain (Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, and Utah)

Texas

Southeast (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee)

Century Complete (Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina)

Commencing in the first quarter of 2023, our Century Complete operations in Texas were realigned and are now managed under our Texas segment. Accordingly, we have presented segment information under this new basis as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we have restated the corresponding segment information for those segments as of December 31, 2022 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

We have identified our Financial Services operations, which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services to our homebuyers, as a sixth reportable segment. Our Corporate operations are a non-operating segment, as our Corporate operations serve to support our homebuilding, and to a lesser extent our Financial Services operations, through functions, such as our executive, finance, treasury, human resources, accounting and legal departments.

Additionally, our wholly owned subsidiary, Century Living, LLC, is engaged in the development, construction and management of multi-family rental properties, currently all located in Colorado. Century Living, LLC is included in our Corporate segment.

Financial Services [Abstract]

Financial Services

4. Financial Services

Our Financial Services are principally comprised of our mortgage lending operations, Inspire Home Loans Inc. (which we refer to as “Inspire”). Inspire is a full-service mortgage lender and primarily originates mortgage loans for our homebuyers. Inspire sells substantially all of the loans it originates either as loans with servicing rights released, or with servicing rights retained, in the secondary mortgage market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. Inspire primarily finances these loans using its mortgage repurchase facilities. 

Mortgage loans held for sale and mortgage servicing rights are carried at fair value, with gains and losses from the changes in fair value reflected in financial services revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. Management believes carrying mortgage loans held for sale at fair value improves financial reporting by mitigating volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring the fair value of the loans and the derivative instruments used to economically hedge them. Net gains and losses from the sale of mortgage loans held for sale, which are recognized based upon the difference between the sales proceeds and carrying value of the related loans upon sale, are also included in financial services revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. Financial services revenue also includes fees earned from originating mortgage loans which are recognized at the time the mortgage loans are funded, including origination fees, discount points to reduce interest rates and fees earned from forward commitment agreements entered into between our homebuilding segments and Financial Services.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Inspire had mortgage loans held for sale with an aggregate fair value of $162.7 million and $203.6 million, respectively, and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $165.7 million and $202.0 million, respectively. Net losses on the sale of mortgage loans were $6.9 million and $3.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and net gains on the sale of mortgage loans were $4.5 million and $15.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. Losses from the change in fair value for mortgage loans held for sale were $2.9 million and $4.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and were $8.1 million and $16.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Mortgage loans in process for which interest rates were locked by borrowers, or interest rate lock commitments, totaled approximately $138.9 million and $68.1 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and carried a weighted average interest rate of approximately 6.0% and 6.1%, respectively.  Interest rate risks related to these obligations are typically mitigated by the preselling of loans to investors or through our interest rate hedging program. Derivative instruments used to economically hedge our market and interest rate risk are carried at fair value. Derivative instruments typically include interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments on mortgage-backed securities. Changes in fair value of these derivatives as well as any gains or losses upon settlement

are reflected in financial services revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 12 – Fair Value Disclosures for further information regarding our derivative instruments.

7. Warranties

Estimated future direct warranty costs are accrued and charged to cost of home sales revenues in the period when the related home sales revenues are recognized. Amounts accrued, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, are based upon historical experience rates. We subsequently assess the adequacy of our warranty accrual on a quarterly basis through a model that incorporates historical payment trends and adjust the amounts recorded, if necessary. Based on warranty payment trends relative to our estimates at the time of home closing, we reduced our warranty reserve by $0.5 million and $0.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and we reduced our warranty reserve by $1.2 million and $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These adjustments are included in cost of home sales revenues on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.  Changes in our warranty accrual for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are detailed in the table below (in thousands):

Self-Insurance Reserve [Abstract]

Self-Insurance Reserve

8. Self-Insurance Reserve

We maintain general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for certain construction defects after homes have closed and premise operations during construction. These insurance policies protect us against a portion of the risk of loss from claims, subject to certain self-insured per occurrence and aggregate retentions, deductibles, and available policy limits. In circumstances where we have elected to retain a higher portion of the overall risk for construction defect claims in return for a lower initial premium, we reserve for the estimated self-insured retention costs that we will incur that are above our coverage limits or that are not covered by our insurance policies. The reserve is recorded on an undiscounted basis at the time revenue is recognized for each home closing. Amounts accrued, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, are based on third party actuarial analyses that are primarily based on industry data and partially on our historical claims, which include estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. Our self-insurance liability is presented on a gross basis without consideration of insurance recoveries and amounts we have paid on behalf of and expect to recover from other parties, if any. Estimates of insurance recoveries and amounts we have paid on behalf of and expect to recover from other parties, if any, are recorded as receivables when such recoveries are considered probable. Based on our third-party actuarial analysis, we reduced our self-insurance reserve by $3.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we increased our self-insurance reserve by $0.9 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Any adjustments are included in cost of home sales revenues on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

⁽¹⁾The carrying value of senior notes reflects the impact of premiums, discounts, and issuance costs that are amortized to interest expense over the respective terms of the senior notes.

⁽²⁾As of September 30, 2023, other financing obligations included $30.0 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings, as well as $28.8 million outstanding under construction loan agreements. As of December 31, 2022, other financing obligations included $20.7 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings, as well as $7.4 million outstanding under construction loan agreements.

Construction Loan Agreements

Certain wholly owned subsidiaries of Century Living, LLC, are parties to construction loan agreements entered into during 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 with various banks, (which we collectively refer to as “the lenders”). The three construction loan agreements collectively provide that we may borrow up to an aggregate of $187.6 million from the lenders for purposes of construction of multi-family projects in Colorado, with advances made by the lenders upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. Borrowings under the construction loan agreements bear interest at various rates, including a fixed rate, and floating interest rates per annum equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (which we refer to as “SOFR”) and the Bloomberg Short-term Bank Yield Index, plus an applicable

margin. The outstanding principal balances and all accrued and unpaid interest is due on varying maturity dates through March 17, 2028, with certain of the construction loan agreements allowing for the option to extend the maturity dates for a period of 12 months if certain conditions are satisfied. The construction loan agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants (including covenants related to construction completion, and limitations on the use of loan proceeds, transfers of land, equipment, and improvements), as well as customary events of default. Interest on our construction loan agreements is capitalized to the multi-family properties assets included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets while the related multi-family rental properties are being actively developed.

As of September 30, 2023, $28.8 million was outstanding under the construction loan agreements, with borrowings that bore a weighted average interest rate of 7.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and we were in compliance with all covenants thereunder.

Revolving Line of Credit

In 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (which we refer to as the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”) with Texas Capital Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer, and the lenders party thereto. The Second A&R Credit Agreement, which amended and restated our prior Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, provides us with a senior unsecured revolving line of credit (which we refer to as the “revolving line of credit”) of up to $800.0 million, and unless terminated earlier, will mature on April 30, 2026. The revolving line of credit includes a $250.0 million sublimit for standby letters of credit. Under the terms of the Second A&R Credit Agreement, the Company is entitled to request an increase in the size of the revolving line of credit by an amount not exceeding $200.0 million. Our obligations under the Second A&R Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. The Second A&R Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (including limitations on our ability to grant liens, incur additional debt, pay dividends, redeem our common stock, make certain investments and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions), as well as customary events of default. On December 21, 2022, we entered into a First Modification Agreement with Texas Capital Bank (formerly known as Texas Capital Bank, National Association), as Administrative Agent, amending the Second A&R Credit Agreement pursuant to which, effective January 3, 2023, all existing borrowings using an interest rate based on a LIBOR reference rate had the interest rate replaced with one based on an adjusted term SOFR reference rate, which equals the greater of (i) 0.50% or (ii) the one-month quotation of the secured overnight financing rate administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 0.10%.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no amounts were outstanding under the revolving line of credit, respectively, and we were in compliance with all covenants under the Second A&R Credit Agreement.

Mortgage Repurchase Facilities – Financial Services

Inspire is a party to a mortgage warehouse facility with J.P. Morgan, which provides Inspire with uncommitted repurchase facilities of up to an aggregate of $200.0 million as of September 30, 2023, secured by the mortgage loans financed thereunder, and a maturity date through January 19, 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we terminated our mortgage warehouse facility agreement with Comerica, which provided uncommitted repurchase facilities of up to an aggregate of $75.0 million, with outstanding principal and interest due on December 29, 2023. The repurchase facilities bore a weighted average interest rate of 6.80% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Amounts outstanding under the repurchase facilities are not guaranteed by us or any of our subsidiaries, and the agreements contain various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Inspire that are customary for arrangements of this type. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $162.1 million and $197.6 million outstanding under the repurchase facilities, respectively, and were in compliance with all covenants thereunder.

Interest on Senior Notes and Revolving Line of Credit

10. Interest on Senior Notes and Revolving Line of Credit

Interest on our senior notes and revolving line of credit, if applicable, is capitalized to inventories while the related communities are being actively developed and until homes are completed. As our qualifying assets exceeded our outstanding debt during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we capitalized all interest costs incurred on these facilities during these periods.

Our interest costs were as follows (in thousands):

Income Taxes [Abstract]

Income Taxes

11. Income Taxes

At the end of each interim period, we are required to estimate our annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year and to use that rate to provide for income taxes for the current year-to-date reporting period. Our 2023 estimated annual effective tax rate, before discrete items of 26.4%, is driven by our blended federal and state statutory rate of 24.8%, and certain permanent differences between GAAP and tax, including disallowed deductions for executive compensation offset by estimated federal energy home credits for current year home deliveries, which combined resulted in a net increase of 1.6%.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our estimated annual rate of 26.4% was benefitted by discrete items which had a net impact of decreasing our rate by 1.1%, including federal energy home tax credits claimed for prior year home deliveries in excess of previous estimates and the impact of excess tax benefits for vested stock-based compensation.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $28.8 million and $27.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded income tax expense of $56.9 million and $128.9 million, respectively.

Fair Value Disclosures

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Disclosures

12. Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value measurements are used for the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale, mortgage loans held for investment, mortgage servicing rights, interest rate lock commitments and other derivative instruments on a recurring basis. We also utilize fair value measurements on a non-recurring basis for inventories and intangible assets when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value is not recoverable. The fair value hierarchy and its application to the Company’s assets and liabilities is as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are inactive; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets at the measurement date.

Mortgage loans held for sale – Fair value is based on quoted market prices for committed and uncommitted mortgage loans.

Derivative assets and liabilities – Derivative assets are associated with interest rate lock commitments and investor commitments on loans and may also be associated with forward mortgage-backed securities contracts. Derivative liabilities are associated with forward mortgage-backed securities contracts. Fair value is based on market prices for similar instruments.

Level 3 – Valuations derived from techniques where one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable in active markets at the measurement date.

Mortgage servicing rights - The fair value of the mortgage servicing rights is calculated using third-party valuations. The key assumptions, which are generally unobservable inputs, used in the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and cost to service.

Mortgage loans held for investment at fair value – The fair value of mortgage loans held for investment at fair value is calculated based on Level 3 analysis which incorporates information including the value of underlying collateral, from markets where there is little observable trading activity.

The following outlines the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively (in thousands):

			September 30,		December 31,
	Balance Sheet Classification	Hierarchy	2023		2022
Mortgage loans held for sale	Mortgage loans held for sale	Level 2	$	162,742	$	203,558
Mortgage loans held for investment at fair value (1)	Prepaid expenses and other assets	Level 3	$	21,367	$	18,875
Derivative assets	Prepaid expenses and other assets	Level 2	$	5,458	$	1,958
Mortgage servicing rights (2)	Prepaid expenses and other assets	Level 3	$	30,493	$	24,164
Derivative liabilities	Accrued expenses and other liabilities	Level 2	$	—	$	1,526

⁽¹⁾The unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the mortgage loans held for investment at fair value include, among other items, the value of underlying collateral, from markets where there is little observable trading activity.

⁽²⁾The unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the mortgage servicing rights include mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and cost to service, which were 9.0%, 10.2%, and $0.071 per year per loan, respectively, as of September 30, 2023, and 7.6%, 9.0%, and $0.072 per year per loan, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. The high and low end of the range of unobservable inputs used in the valuation did not result in a significant change to the fair value measurement.

The following table represents the reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance for the Level 3 recurring fair value measurements, with gains and losses from the changes in fair value reflected in financial services revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

For the financial assets and liabilities that the Company does not reflect at fair value, the following present both their respective carrying value and fair value at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively (in thousands).

		September 30, 2023				December 31, 2022

⁽¹⁾Estimated fair value of the senior notes is based on recent trading activity in inactive markets.

⁽²⁾Carrying amounts include any associated unamortized deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts. As of September 30, 2023, these amounts totaled $4.5 million and $3.0 million for the 3.875% senior notes and 6.750% senior notes, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, these amounts totaled $5.1 million and $3.6 million for the 3.875% senior notes and 6.750% senior notes, respectively.

⁽³⁾Carrying amount approximates fair value due to short-term nature and/or interest rate terms.

⁽⁴⁾During the period ended September 30, 2023, other financing obligations included $30.0 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings that generally bore interest rates ranging from 2.40% to 7.70%, and $28.8 million related to outstanding borrowings on the construction loan agreements that bore a weighted average interest rate of 7.2%. During the period ended December 31, 2022, other financing obligations included $20.7 million related to insurance premium notes and certain secured borrowings that generally bore interest rates ranging from 2.40% to 5.84%, and $7.4 million related to outstanding borrowings on the construction loan agreements that bore a weighted average interest rate of 5.6%.

Non-financial assets and liabilities include items such as inventory and property and equipment that are measured at fair value when acquired and as a result of impairments, if deemed necessary. No impairment charges were recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. When impairment charges are recognized, the estimated fair value of communities are determined through a discounted cash flow approach utilizing Level 3 inputs. Changes in our cash flow projections in future periods related to these communities may change our conclusions on the recoverability of inventory in the future.

Stock-Based Compensation [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

13. Stock-Based Compensation

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we granted restricted stock units (which we refer to as “RSUs”) covering 0.2 million and 0.2 million shares of common stock, respectively, with a grant date fair value of $62.68 and $63.26 per share, respectively, that primarily vest over a three year period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we granted 11.0 thousand and 11.0 thousand shares of common stock, respectively, on an unrestricted basis (which we refer to as “stock awards”) with a grant date fair value of $65.77 and $54.46 per share, respectively, to our non-employee directors.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we granted performance share units (which we refer to as “PSUs”) covering up to 0.5 million and 0.5 million shares of common stock, respectively, assuming maximum level of performance, with a grant date fair value of $60.05 and $55.93 per share, respectively, that are subject to both service and performance vesting conditions. The quantity of shares that will ultimately vest and be issued for the PSUs ranges from 0% to up to 250% of a targeted number of shares dependent upon the participant and will be determined based on an achievement of a three year adjusted pre-tax income performance goal. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we issued 0.3 million and 0.3 million shares of common stock, respectively, upon the vesting and settlement of PSUs that were granted in previous periods. Approximately 1.1 million shares will vest from 2024 to 2026 if the defined maximum performance targets are met, and no shares will vest if the defined minimum performance targets are not met.

A summary of our outstanding PSUs, assuming the current estimated level of performance achievement, and RSUs are as follows (in thousands, except years):

	As of September 30, 2023
Unvested units		1,357
Unrecognized compensation cost	$	41,092
Weighted-average years to recognize compensation cost		1.91

During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $12.2 million and $5.2 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $26.5 million and $15.0 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general, and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation we updated our recognition of stock-based compensation expense associated with previously granted PSU awards to reflect probable financial results as they relate to the performance goals of the awards. Accordingly, our estimate of the number of shares which will ultimately vest under our PSU awards increased by 0.4 million shares during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 0.4 million shares during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. We recorded a cumulative catch-up adjustment to increase stock-based compensation expense of $7.4 million ($5.5 million net of tax), or $0.17 per share (basic and diluted), for the three months ended September 30, 2023, and $10.8 million ($8.0 million net of tax), or $0.25 per share (basic and diluted), for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Stockholders' Equity

14. Stockholders’ Equity

The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 100.0 million shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 50.0 million shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 31.8 million and 31.8 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding, respectively, and no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

On May 4, 2022, the stockholders approved the adoption of the Century Communities, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan (which we refer to as the “2022 Incentive Plan”), which replaced the Century Communities, Inc. Amended and Restated 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (which we refer to as our “2017 Incentive Plan”). Under the 2022 Incentive Plan, 3.1 million shares of common stock are available for issuance to eligible participants, plus 51.2 thousand shares of our common stock that remained available for issuance under the 2017 Incentive Plan and any shares subject to awards outstanding under the 2017 Incentive Plan that are subsequently forfeited, cancelled, expire or otherwise terminate without the issuance of such shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we issued 0.4 million and 0.5 million shares of common stock, respectively, related to the vesting and settlement of RSUs and PSUs. As of September 30, 2023, approximately 2.5 million shares of common stock remained available for issuance under the 2022 Incentive Plan.

The following table sets forth cash dividends declared by our Board of Directors to holders of record of our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively (in thousands, except per share information):

Under the 2022 Incentive Plan and the previous 2017 Incentive Plan, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, RSUs and PSUs granted under the plan have the right to earn dividend equivalents, which entitles the holders of such RSUs and PSUs to additional RSUs and PSUs equal to the same dividend value per share as holders of common stock. Dividend equivalents are subject to the same vesting and other terms and conditions as the underlying RSUs and PSUs.

We are party to a Distribution Agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and Fifth Third Securities, Inc. (which we refer to as the “Distribution Agreement”), as sales agents pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million from time to time through any of the sales agents party thereto in “at-the-market” offerings, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Distribution Agreement. The Distribution Agreement will remain in full force and effect until terminated by either party pursuant to the terms of the agreement or such date that the maximum offering amount has been sold in accordance with the terms of the agreement. We did not sell or issue any shares of our common stock during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and as of September 30, 2023, all $100.0 million remained available for sale.

We authorized a stock repurchase program in 2018, under which we may repurchase up to 4.5 million shares of our outstanding common stock. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, an aggregate of 247.8 thousand and 278.2 thousand shares,

respectively, were repurchased for a total purchase price of approximately $17.3 million and $19.2 million, respectively, and a weighted average price of $69.61 and $69.09 per share, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, an aggregate of 0.5 million and 2.3 million shares, respectively, were repurchased for a total purchase price of approximately $22.3 million and $120.6 million, respectively, and a weighted average price of $44.58 and $52.32 per share, respectively. The maximum number of shares available to be repurchased under the stock repurchase program as of September 30, 2023 was 1,230,010 shares.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, shares of common stock at a total cost of $10.7 million and $12.7 million, respectively, were netted and surrendered as payment for minimum statutory withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of outstanding stock-based compensation awards. Shares surrendered by the participants in accordance with the applicable award agreements and plan are deemed repurchased and retired by us but are not part of our publicly announced share repurchase programs.

We excluded 0.9 million and 0.5 million common stock unit equivalents from diluted earnings per share during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and we excluded 0.8 million and 0.5 million common stock unit equivalents from diluted earnings per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to the PSUs for which performance conditions remained unsatisfied.

Commitments and Contingencies

16. Commitments and Contingencies

Letters of Credit and Performance Bonds

In the normal course of business, we post letters of credit and performance and other bonds primarily related to our land development performance obligations with local municipalities. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $513.9 million and $574.8 million, respectively, in letters of credit and performance and other bonds issued and outstanding.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to claims and lawsuits that arise primarily in the ordinary course of business, which consist primarily of construction claims. It is the opinion of our management that if the claims have merit, parties other than the Company would be, at least in part, liable for the claims, and the eventual outcome of these claims will not have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. When we believe that a loss is probable and estimable, we record a charge on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for our estimated loss.

Under various insurance policies, we have the ability to recoup costs in excess of applicable self-insured retentions. Estimates of such amounts are recorded in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet when recovery is probable. 

We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any claims and lawsuits will have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Basis of Presentation [Abstract]

Basis of Accounting

Century Communities, Inc. (which we refer to as “we,” “CCS,” or the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 18 states. In many of our projects, in addition to building homes, we are responsible for the entitlement and development of the underlying land. We build and sell homes under our Century Communities and Century Complete brands. Our Century Communities brand targets a wide range of buyer profiles including: entry-level, first and second time move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade opportunities. Our Century Complete brand targets entry-level homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet, and generally provides no option or upgrade opportunities.

Our homebuilding operations are organized into the following five reportable segments: West, Mountain, Texas, Southeast, and Century Complete. Our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Inspire Home Loans Inc., Parkway Title, LLC, and IHL Home Insurance Agency, LLC, which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services, respectively, primarily to our homebuyers, have been identified as our Financial Services segment. Additionally, our wholly owned subsidiary, Century Living, LLC, is engaged in the development, construction and management of multi-family rental properties, currently all located in Colorado. Century Living, LLC is included in our Corporate segment.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (which we refer to as “GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (which we refer to as the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 that was filed with the SEC on February 2, 2023.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all subsidiaries in which we have a controlling interest, and variable interest entities for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We do not have any variable interest entities in which we are deemed the primary beneficiary.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

There are no recent accounting standards that are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
