NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023 or subsequent periods due to seasonal variations and other factors.

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

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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

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

For a complete set of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) to the FASB ASC. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs and has determined that any recently adopted accounting pronouncements did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and all recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted are not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

March 31, 2023December 31, 2022
Customer and builder deposits$36,948 $29,112 

The difference between the opening and closing balances of customer and builder deposits results from the timing difference between the customers’ payments of deposits and the Company’s delivery of the home, impacted slightly by terminations of contracts.

The amount of deposits on residential units and land and lots held as of the beginning of the period and recognized as revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows (in thousands):

Homebuilders and Multi-Family Developers— 100 
Total deposits recognized as revenue$12,653 $20,895 

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations
The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations on our land sale and lot option contracts is $5.3 million. The Company will recognize the remaining revenue when the lots are taken down, or upon closing for the sale of a land parcel, which is expected to occur in the remainder of 2023.

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

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

11. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $19.0 million and $18.4 million, respectively. The effective tax rate was 21.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 22.3% in the comparable prior year period. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 relates primarily to the benefit from the 45L Energy Efficient Home Credit enacted by Congress in August 2022 as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“the 2022 Act”). The 2022 Act extends and modifies the new energy efficient home credit that Congress had enacted through the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Acts of 2019 and 2020. This tax credit had expired at the end of 2021, but following its enactment in August 2022, the 2022 Act extended the tax credit through 2032.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

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

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, adjusted for non-vested shares of RSAs and PRSUs during each period. Net income applicable to common stockholders is net income adjusted for preferred stock dividends including dividends declared and cumulative dividends related to the current dividend period that have not been declared as of period end. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method and includes the effect of all dilutive securities, including stock options and restricted stock awards.

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

13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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

Per the fair value hierarchy, level 1 financial instruments include: cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and customer and builder deposits due to their short-term nature. The Company estimates that, due to the short-term nature of the underlying financial instruments or the proximity of the underlying transaction to the applicable reporting date, the fair value of level 1 financial instruments does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Level 2 financial instruments include borrowings on lines of credit, senior unsecured notes, and notes payable. Due to the short-term nature and floating interest rate terms, the carrying amounts of borrowings on lines of credit are deemed to approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the senior unsecured notes as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $312.1 million and $306.1 million, respectively. The aggregate principal balance of the senior unsecured notes was $337.5 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of our financial instruments during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

14. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Letters of Credit and Performance Bonds
During the ordinary course of business, certain regulatory agencies and municipalities require the Company to post letters of credit or performance bonds related to development projects. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, letters of credit
17
and performance bonds outstanding were $3.1 million and $5.0 million. The Company does not believe that it is likely that any material claims will be made under a letter of credit or performance bond in the foreseeable future.

Operating Leases
The Company has leases associated with office and design center space in Georgia, Texas, and Florida that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of more than 12 months and are classified as operating leases. The exercise of any extension options available in such operating lease contracts is not reasonably certain.
Operating lease cost of $0.4 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $0.4 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
As of March 31, 2023, the weighted-average remaining lease term and the weighted-average discount rate used in calculating our lease liabilities were 4.4 years and 4.0%, respectively.
The future annual undiscounted cash flows in relation to the operating leases and a reconciliation of such undiscounted cash flows to the operating lease liabilities recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2023 are presented below (in thousands):
Remainder of 2023$1,028

2026504 
2027447 
Thereafter380 
Total future lease payments$3,515 
Less: Interest328 
Present value of lease liabilities$3,187 

The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. For such leases, the Company does not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities and instead recognizes lease payments in the condensed consolidated income statements on a straight-line basis. Short-term lease cost of $0.2 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Legal Matters
Lawsuits, claims and proceedings may be instituted or asserted against us in the normal course of business. The Company is also subject to local, state and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, title company regulations, employment practices and environmental protection. As a result, the Company may be subject to periodic examinations or inquiry by agencies administering these laws and regulations.

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

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

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

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27, 2023. The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview and Outlook
Our key financial and operating metrics are home deliveries, home closings revenue, average sales price of homes delivered, and net new home orders, which refers to sales contracts executed reduced by the number of sales contracts canceled during the relevant period. Our results for each key financial and operating metric, as compared to the same period in 2022, are provided below:
Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
Home deliveries
Increased by 15.7%
Home closings revenue
Increased by 23.8%
Average sales price of homes delivered
Increased by 7.0%
Net new home orders
Increased by 77.5%

The strong performance on our key metrics year over year is attributable to the expansion of our revenues through our high-performing Texas builders, growth in the average selling price of homes, our infill and infill-adjacent locations in high growth markets, the increased levels of finished and finishing spec home inventory entering the quarter, and the continued low supply of existing and new home inventory in our markets. The rise in new homes delivered over the prior year period was primarily driven by increased levels of finished and finishing spec home inventory entering the first quarter of 2023, and the increase in our average sales price of homes delivered was primarily attributable to overall price increases driven by the low supply of inventory.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Residential Units Revenue and New Homes Delivered
The table below represents residential units revenue and new homes delivered for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31,
20232022Change%
Home closings revenue$449,430 $363,063 $86,367 23.8 %

New homes delivered761 658 103 15.7 %
Average sales price of homes delivered$590.6 $551.8 $38.8 7.0 %

The $85.7 million increase in residential units revenue was primarily driven by the 15.7% increase in new homes delivered and the 7.0% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in new homes delivered was primarily driven by increased levels of finished and finishing spec home inventory entering the quarter. The 7.0% increase in the average sales price of homes delivered for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was attributable to overall price increases driven by the low supply of inventory.

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

Backlog units843 1,423 (580)(40.8)%
Average sales price of backlog$653.1 $609.0 $44.1 7.2 %

Net new home orders increased 77.5% over the prior year period and our absorption rate per average active selling community increased 66.3% year over year. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, our net new home orders increased 152.2% sequentially and our absorption rate increased 142.8% from the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The absorption rate per average active selling community per quarter was 13.3 homes during the three months ended March 31, 2023, and represented an all-time high for the Company for any quarter. The increase in net new home orders is attributable to the limited competition in our infill and infill-adjacent community sites, increased levels of finished and finishing spec homes entering the quarter, and the continued low supply of existing and new home inventory in our markets.

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

Backlog declined by 36.5% compared to March 31, 2022, while it increased by 49.2% compared to December 31, 2022. Backlog units declined 40.8%, offset by a 7.2% increase in the average sales price of backlog units. As of March 31, 2023, backlog units increased 57.0% sequentially, offset by a 5.0% decline in the average sales price of backlog units compared to December 31, 2022. As a result, our spec units under construction as a percentage of total units under construction declined from 73.4% as of December 31, 2022 to 59.2% as of March 31, 2023, and compared to 45.0% as of March 31, 2022.

Our cancellation rate, which refers to sales contracts canceled divided by sales contracts executed during the relevant period, was 6.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 8.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Sales contracts may be canceled by the prospective purchaser for a number of reasons, including the prospective purchaser’s inability to obtain suitable mortgage financing.

Builder Operations
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for builder operations increased from 9.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2022 to 10.2% in the three months ended March 31, 2023 due to an increase in costs for brokerage commissions. Builder operations expenditures include salary expenses, sales commissions, and community costs such as advertising and marketing expenses, rent, professional fees, and non-capitalized property taxes.

Corporate, Other and Unallocated
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the corporate, other and unallocated non-operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was income of $1.4 million, compared to income of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. These expenses generally include capitalized overhead adjustments that are not allocated to builder operations segments.

Equity in Income of Unconsolidated Entities
Equity in income of unconsolidated entities decreased to $4.2 million, or 25.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a summary of Green Brick’s share in net earnings by unconsolidated entity.

Other Income, Net
Other income, net, increased to $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to income of $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The change was primarily due to an increase in title closing and settlement services, forfeited customer deposits, and other interest income.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $19.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to a $18.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was substantially due to higher taxable income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview
We had $177.3 million and $76.6 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Our historical cash management strategy includes redeploying net cash from the sale of home inventory to acquire and develop land and lots that represent opportunities to generate desired margins and using cash to make additional investments in business acquisitions, joint ventures, or other strategic activities.

Our principal uses of capital for the three months ended March 31, 2023 were home construction, land development, repayments of lines of credit, operating expenses, payment of routine liabilities and stock repurchases. We used funds generated by operations and available borrowings to meet our short-term working capital requirements. We remain focused on generating positive margins in our builder operations segments and acquiring desirable land positions in order to maintain a strong balance sheet and remain poised for continued growth.

Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the community’s stage in the development cycle. Early stages of development or expansion require significant cash outlays for land acquisitions, entitlements and other approvals, roads, utilities, general landscaping and other amenities. These costs are a component of our inventory and are not recognized in our statement of income until a home closes. In the later stages of community life cycle, cash inflows may significantly exceed
24
earnings reported for financial statement purposes, as the cash outflows associated with home construction and land development previously occurred.

Our debt to total capitalization ratio, which is calculated as the sum of borrowings on lines of credit, the senior unsecured notes, and notes payable, net of debt issuance costs (“total debt”), divided by the total capitalization, which equals the sum of Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders’ equity and total debt, was approximately 23.8% as of March 31, 2023. In addition, as of March 31, 2023, our net debt to total capitalization ratio, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, remained low at 13.3%. It is our intent to prudently employ leverage to continue to invest in our land acquisition, development and homebuilding businesses. We target a debt to total capitalization ratio of approximately 30% to 35%, which we expect will provide us with significant additional growth capital.

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

The closest GAAP financial measure to the net debt to total capitalization ratio is the debt to total capitalization ratio. The following table represents a reconciliation of the net debt to total capitalization ratio as of March 31, 2023:

•Financing activities. Net cash used by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $49.2 million, compared to $1.1 million generated by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Debt Instruments
Secured Revolving Credit Facility – As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no amounts outstanding under our Secured Revolving Credit facility. Borrowings under the Secured Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the rate announced by Bank of America, N.A. as its “Prime Rate” less 0.25%, subject to a minimum rate. On February 9, 2022, the Company entered into the Eighth Amendment to this credit agreement to extend its maturity date to May 1, 2025 and to reduce the minimum interest rate from 4.00% to 3.15%. All other material terms of the credit agreement, as amended, remained unchanged.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility – As of March 31, 2023, we had no amounts outstanding under our $325.0 million Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, down from $20.0 million as of December 31, 2022. On December 9, 2022, the Company entered into the Tenth Amendment to this credit agreement which increased the secured outstanding commitments from $300.0 million to $325.0 million, replaced the Eurodollar rate, and extended the termination date by one year to December 14, 2025. Outstanding advances under the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility accrue interest at the benchmark rate plus 2.5%. As amended, the aggregate principal amount of the revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement is $325.0 million through December 14, 2025.

Senior Unsecured Notes - As of March 31, 2023, we had four series of senior unsecured notes outstanding which were each issued pursuant to a note purchase agreement. The aggregate amount of senior unsecured notes outstanding was $335.9 million as of March 31, 2023 compared to $335.8 million as of December 31, 2022, net of issuance costs.
•In August 2019, we issued $75 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2026 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 4.0% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2026 Notes is required to be paid in increments of $12.5 million on August 8, 2024 and $12.5 million on August 8, 2025 with a final principal payment of $50.0 million on August 8, 2026.
•In August 2020, we issued $37.5 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2027 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.35% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2027 Notes is due on August 26, 2027.
•In February 2021, we issued $125.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2028 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.25% and is payable quarterly. Principal on the 2028 Notes is due in increments of $25.0 million annually on February 25 in each of 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028.
•In December 2021, we issued $100.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2029 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.25% and is payable quarterly. A required principal prepayment of $30.0 million is due on December 28, 2028. The remaining unpaid principal balance is due on December 28, 2029.

Optional prepayment is allowed with payment of a “make-whole” premium which fluctuates depending on market interest rates. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears.

Our debt instruments require us to maintain specific financial covenants, each of which we were in compliance with as of March 31, 2023. Specifically, under the most restrictive covenants, we are required to maintain the following:
•a minimum interest coverage (consolidated EBITDA to interest incurred) of no less than 2.0 to 1.0. As of March 31, 2023, our interest coverage on a last 12 months’ basis was 24.32 to 1.0;
•a Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of no less than approximately $711.0 million. As of March 31, 2023, our Consolidated Tangible Net Worth was $1,113.0 million; and
•a maximum debt to total capitalization rolling average ratio of no more than 40.0%. As of March 31, 2023, we had a rolling average ratio of 25.6%.

As of March 31, 2023, we believe that our cash on hand, capacity available under our lines of credit and cash flows from operations for the next twelve months will be sufficient to service our outstanding debt during the next twelve months and fund our operations. For additional information on the Company’s lines of credit and senior unsecured notes, refer to Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Preferred Equity

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 2,000,000 Depositary Shares were issued and outstanding, each representing 1/1000 of a share of our 5.75% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). We pay cumulative cash dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock, when and as declared by the Board, at the rate of 5.75% of the $25,000 liquidation preference per share. Dividends are payable quarterly in arrears. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we paid dividends of $0.7 million on our Series A Preferred Stock. On April 27,2023, the Board declared a
26
quarterly cash dividend of $0.359 per depositary share on our Series A Preferred Stock. The dividend is payable on June 15, 2023 to stockholders of record as of June 1, 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

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

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

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

We generally have the right, at our discretion, to terminate our obligations under both purchase contracts and option contracts by forfeiting the earnest money deposit with no further financial responsibility to the land seller.

As of March 31, 2023, we had earnest money deposits of $20.0 million at risk associated with contracts to purchase 2,864 lots past feasibility studies with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $213.9 million.

Guarantee
Refer to Note 5 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for details of our guarantee in relation to EJB River Holdings, LLC joint venture.

Seasonality

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

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are described in Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
