Homebuilding revenues of $2.55 billion in the second quarter of 2024 increased by 12% compared to homebuilding revenues of $2.28 billion in the second quarter of 2023. Gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2024 decreased to 23.6%, from 24.3% in the second quarter of 2023.

Mortgage Banking

Mortgage closed loan production in the second quarter of 2024 totaled $1.53 billion, an increase of 11% when compared to the second quarter of 2023. Income before tax from the mortgage banking segment totaled $45.0 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 23% when compared to $36.5 million in the second quarter of 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in secondary marketing gains on sales of loans.

Effective Tax Rate

Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was 24.9% and 20.8%, respectively, compared to 14.3% and 17.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate in each period is primarily attributable to a lower income tax benefit recognized for excess tax benefits from stock option exercises, which totaled $6.8 million and $50.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $55.9 million and $79.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.
