[1] During the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, our inventory under development exceeded our debt, therefore, all of the related interest incurred qualified for interest capitalization. Other interest includes interest on completed homes, land in planning and fully developed lots without homes under construction, which does not qualify for capitalization, and therefore, is expensed as incurred.

[2] Includes $26.8 million gain on consolidation of joint ventures for the three months ended January 31, 2026, and $22.7 million gain on contribution of assets to a joint venture for the three months ended January 31, 2025 (see note 18).
