1.    Basis of Presentation
The Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of M.D.C. Holdings, Inc. ("MDC," “the Company," “we,” “us,” or “our,” which refer to M.D.C. Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries) have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of MDC at March 31,June 30, 2023 and for all periods presented. These statements should be read in conjunction with MDC’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in MDC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Included in these footnotes are certain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies and prospects. These forward-looking statements may be identified by terminology such as “likely,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this section are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. However, any further disclosures made on related subjects in subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K should be considered.
Where necessary, reclassifications have been made to our prior period financial information to conform to the current year presentation.
2.    Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Not Yet Adopted New Accounting Standards
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848),” as amended by ASU 2021-01 in January 2021 and ASU 2022-06 in December 2022, directly addressing the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting as a result of the cessation of the publication of certain LIBOR rates beginning December 31, 2021, with complete elimination of the publication of the LIBOR rates by June 30, 2023. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform by virtue of referencing LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. This guidance became effective on March 12, 2020 and can be adopted no later than December 31, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We plan to adoptadopted this amendment in the second quarter of 2023. We are currently evaluating the impact, but do not expect that theThe adoption of ASU 2020-04, as amended by ASU 2021-01 and ASU 2022-06, willdid not have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet or consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.

3.    Segment Reporting
An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available and is reviewed regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, to evaluate performance and make operating decisions. We have identified our CODM as two key executives—the Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”).
We have identified each homebuilding division as an operating segment. Our homebuilding operating segments have been aggregated into the reportable segments noted below because they are similar in the following regards: (1) economic characteristics; (2) housing products; (3) class of homebuyer; (4) regulatory environments; and (5) methods used to construct and sell homes. Our homebuilding reportable segments conducted ongoing operations in the following states:
West (Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas and Washington)
Mountain (Colorado, Idaho and Utah)
East (Alabama, Florida, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Virginia)
Our financial services business consists of the following operating segments: (1) HomeAmerican Mortgage Corporation (“HomeAmerican”); (2) Allegiant Insurance Company, Inc., A Risk Retention Group (“Allegiant”); (3) StarAmerican Insurance Ltd. (“StarAmerican”); (4) American Home Insurance Agency, Inc.; and (5) American Home Title and Escrow Company. Due to its contributions to consolidated pretax income, we consider HomeAmerican to be a reportable segment (“mortgage operations”). The remaining operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment (“other”) because they do not individually exceed 10 percent of: (1) consolidated revenue; (2) the greater of (a) the combined reported profit of all operating segments that did not report a loss or (b) the positive value of the combined reported loss of all operating segments that reported losses; or (3) consolidated assets.
Corporate is a non-operating segment that develops and implements strategic initiatives and supports our operating divisions by centralizing key administrative functions such as finance, treasury, information technology, insurance, risk management, litigation and human resources. Corporate also provides the necessary administrative functions to support MDC as a publicly traded company. A portion of the expenses incurred by Corporate are allocated to the homebuilding operating segments based on their respective percentages of assets and, to a lesser degree, a portion of Corporate expenses are allocated to the financial services segments. A majority of Corporate’s personnel and resources are primarily dedicated to activities relating to the homebuilding segments, and, therefore, the balance of any unallocated Corporate expenses is included in the homebuilding operations section of our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
The following table summarizes revenues for our homebuilding and financial services operations:

4.     Earnings Per Share
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 260, Earnings per Share ("ASC 260") requires a company that has participating security holders (for example, holders of unvested restricted stock that have non-forfeitable dividend rights) to utilize the two-class method for calculating earnings per share (“EPS”) unless the treasury stock method results in lower EPS. The two-class method is an allocation of earnings/(loss) between the holders of common stock and a company’s participating security holders. Under the two-class method, earnings/(loss) for the reporting period are allocated between common shareholders and other security holders based on their respective rights to receive distributed earnings (i.e., dividends) and undistributed earnings (i.e., net income/(loss)). Our common shares outstanding are comprised of shareholder owned common stock and shares of unvested restricted stock held by participating security holders. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing income or loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, excluding participating shares in accordance with ASC 260. To calculate diluted EPS, basic EPS is adjusted to include the effect of potentially dilutive stock options outstanding and contingently issuable equity awards. The table below shows our basic and diluted EPS calculations.

5.    Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments as of March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Debt securities. Our debt securities consist of U.S. government treasury securities with original maturities upon acquisition of less than six months and are treated as available-for-sale investments and, as such, are recorded at fair value with all changes in fair value initially recorded through other comprehensive income. Debt securities are reviewed on a regular basis for impairment. There were no impairments recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
The estimated fair value, gross unrealized holding gains, gross unrealized holding losses and amortized cost for debt securities by major classification are as follows:

Total Debt Securities$676,446 $120 $$676,565 $561,100 $— $— $561,100 
Mortgage loans held-for-sale, net.  Our mortgage loans held-for-sale, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, include (1) mortgage loans held-for-sale that are under commitments to sell and (2) mortgage loans held-for-sale that are not under commitments to sell. At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $111.3$48.0 million and $142.9 million, respectively, of mortgage loans held-for-sale at fair value under commitments to sell. The fair value for those loans was based on quoted market prices for those mortgage loans, which are Level 2 fair value inputs. At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $55.0$110.7 million and $86.6 million, respectively, of mortgage loans held-for-sale that were not under commitments to sell. The fair value for those loans was primarily based upon the estimated market price received from an outside party, which is a Level 2 fair value input.
Gains (losses) on mortgage loans, net, are included as a component of revenues in the financial services section of our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, we recorded a lossgain (loss) on mortgage loans held-for-sale, net of $2.3$(3.4) million and $(5.6) million, respectively, compared to $5.0$(4.3) million and $(9.3) million for the same period in the prior year.
Derivative and financial instruments, net. Our derivatives and financial instruments, which include (1) interest rate lock commitments, (2) forward sales of mortgage-backed securities, (3) mandatory delivery forward loan sale commitments and (4) best-effort delivery forward loan sale commitments, are measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on market prices for similar instruments.

Table of Contents
For the financial assets and liabilities that the Company does not reflect at fair value, the following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments.
Cash and cash equivalents (excluding debt securities with an original maturity of three months or less), restricted cash, trade and other receivables, prepaids and other assets, accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities and borrowings on our revolving credit facility. Fair value approximates carrying value.
Mortgage Repurchase Facility. The debt associated with our mortgage repurchase facility (see Note 18 for further discussion) is at floating rates that approximate current market rates and have relatively short-term maturities, generally within 30 days. The fair value approximates carrying value and is based on Level 2 inputs.
Senior Notes. The estimated values of the senior notes in the following table are based on Level 2 inputs, which primarily reflect estimated prices for our senior notes that were provided by multiple sources.

Our inventories are primarily associated with communities where we intend to construct and sell homes, including models and unsold homes. Costs capitalized to land and land under development primarily include: (1) land costs; (2) land development costs; (3) entitlement costs; (4) capitalized interest; (5) engineering fees; and (6) title insurance, real property taxes and closing costs directly related to the purchase of the land parcel. Components of housing completed or under construction primarily include: (1) land costs transferred from land and land under development; (2) direct construction costs associated with a house; (3) real property taxes, engineering fees, permits and other fees; (4) capitalized interest; and (5) indirect construction costs, which include field construction management salaries and benefits, utilities and other construction related costs. Land costs are transferred from land and land under development to housing completed or under construction at the point in time that construction of a home on an owned lot begins.
In accordance with ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”), homebuilding inventories, excluding those classified as held for sale, are carried at cost unless events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the underlying subdivision may not be recoverable.  We evaluate inventories for impairment at each quarter end on a subdivision level basis as each such subdivision represents the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. In making this determination, we review, among other things, the following for each subdivision:
actual and trending “Operating Margin” (which is defined as home sale revenues less home cost of sales and all incremental costs associated directly with the subdivision, including sales commissions and marketing costs);
forecasted Operating Margin for homes in backlog;
actual and trending net home orders;
homes available for sale;
market information for each sub-market, including competition levels, home foreclosure levels, the size and style of homes currently being offered for sale and lot size; and
known or probable events indicating that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of our inventory may not be recoverable, assets are reviewed for impairment by comparing the undiscounted estimated future cash flows from an individual subdivision (including capitalized interest) to its carrying value. If the undiscounted future cash flows are less than the subdivision’s carrying value, the carrying value of the subdivision is written down to its then estimated fair value. We generally determine the estimated fair value of each subdivision by determining the present value of the estimated future cash flows at discount rates, which are Level 3 inputs, that are commensurate with the risk of the subdivision under evaluation. The evaluation for the recoverability of the carrying value of the assets for each individual subdivision can be impacted significantly by our estimates of future home sale revenues, home construction costs, and development costs per home, all of which are Level 3 inputs.

Table of Contents
If land is classified as held for sale, we measure it in accordance with ASC 360 at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less estimated costs to sell. In determining fair value, we primarily rely upon the most recent negotiated price, which is a Level 2 input. If a negotiated price is not available, we will consider several factors including, but not limited to, current market conditions, recent comparable sales transactions and market analysis studies, which are considered Level 3 inputs. If the fair value less estimated costs to sell is lower than the current carrying value, the land is impaired down to its estimated fair value less costs to sell.
Inventory impairments recognized by segment for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022 are shown in the table below.

7.    Capitalization of Interest
We capitalize interest to inventories during the period of development in accordance with ASC Topic 835, Interest (“ASC 835”). Homebuilding interest capitalized as a cost of inventories is included in cost of sales during the period that related units or lots are delivered. To the extent our homebuilding debt exceeds our qualified assets as defined in ASC 835, we expense a portion of the interest incurred. Qualified homebuilding assets consist of all lots and homes, excluding finished unsold homes or finished models, within projects that are actively selling or under development. The table set forth below summarizes homebuilding interest activity. For all periods presented below, our qualified assets exceeded our homebuilding debt and as such, all interest incurred has been capitalized.

8.    Leases
We lease certain property, land and equipment, the majority of which comprise property related leases to provide office space where we operate our business. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Our property related leases typically have terms of between three and five years, with the exception of the lease governing the Company’s headquarters. All of our property related leases are classified as operating leases. These leases do not contain any residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants and do not include variable lease payments, except for the payment of common area maintenance and real estate taxes. Many of our property related leases give us the option to extend the lease term for a period of time, generally consistent with the initial lease term. These options are excluded from our calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability until such time as we determine it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.
The property related lease for the Company’s headquarters in Denver, Colorado is ten years in length with an expiration date of October 31, 2026 and contains a ten year option to extend the term of the lease through 2036. This option has been excluded from our calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability as it is not currently considered reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.
Operating lease expense is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the homebuilding section and expenses in the financial services section of our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Components of operating lease expense were as follows:

11.    Warranty Accrual
Our homes are sold with limited third-party warranties and, under our agreement with the issuer of the third-party warranties, we are responsible for performing all of the work for the first two years of the warranty coverage, and paying for certain work required to be performed subsequent to year two. We record accruals for general and structural warranty claims, as well as accruals for known, unusual warranty-related expenditures. Our warranty accrual is recorded based upon historical payment experience in an amount estimated to be adequate to cover expected costs of materials and outside labor during warranty periods. The determination of the warranty accrual rate for closed homes and the evaluation of our warranty accrual balance at period end are based on an internally developed analysis that includes known facts and interpretations of circumstances, including, among other things, our trends in historical warranty payment levels and warranty payments for claims not considered to be normal and recurring.
Our warranty accrual is included in accrued and other liabilities in the homebuilding section of our consolidated balance sheets and adjustments to our warranty accrual are recorded as an increase or reduction to home cost of sales in the homebuilding section of our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
The table set forth below summarizes accrual, adjustment and payment activity related to our warranty accrual for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022. The warranty accrual during the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 decreased compared toremained relatively flat as the decrease in home closings was offset by an increase duringto the three months ended March 31, 2022 due toper home accrual rate concurrent with the increase in cash payments and a decrease inconstruction costs year-over-year.

Further, there wassix months ended June 30, 2022 included a $2.4 million adjustment to increase our warranty accrual during the three months ended March 31, 2022.accrual.

12.    Insurance and Construction Defect Claim Reserves
The establishment of reserves for estimated losses associated with insurance policies issued by Allegiant and re-insurance agreements issued by StarAmerican are based on actuarial studies that include known facts and interpretations of circumstances, including our experience with similar cases and historical trends involving claim payment patterns, pending levels of unpaid claims, product mix or concentration, claim severity, frequency patterns, and changing regulatory and legal environments. It is possible that changes in the insurance payment experience used in estimating our ultimate insurance losses could have a material impact on our insurance reserves.
The establishment of reserves for estimated losses to be incurred by our homebuilding subsidiaries associated with: (1) the self-insured retention (“SIR”) portion of construction defect claims that are expected to be covered under insurance policies with Allegiant and (2) the entire cost of any construction defect claims that are not expected to be covered by insurance policies with Allegiant, are based on third party actuarial studies that include known facts similar to those for our insurance reserves. It is possible that changes in the payment experience used in estimating our ultimate losses for construction defect claims could have a material impact on our reserves.
The table set forth below summarizes our insurance and construction defect claim reserves activity for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022.

The year-over-year decrease in ourthe effective tax rate for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, was primarily due to energy tax credits benefitingused in 2023 whichthat had not been extended into 2022 as of March 31, 2022.

-18--19-

Table of Contents
business and in accordance with the applicable contractual terms. To the extent that the obligations are performed, the related performance bonds and letters of credit should be released and we should not have any continuing obligations. However, in the event any such performance bonds or letters of credit are called, our indemnity obligations could require us to reimburse the issuer of the performance bond or letter of credit.
We have made no material guarantees with respect to third-party obligations.
Litigation. Due to the nature of the homebuilding business, we have been named as defendants in various claims, complaints and other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, including product liability claims and claims associated with the sale and financing of homes. In the opinion of 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.
Lot Option Contracts. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into lot option purchase contracts (“Option Contracts”), generally through a deposit of cash or a letter of credit, for the right to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. The use of such land option and other contracts generally allow us to reduce the risks associated with direct land ownership and development, reduces our capital and financial commitments, and minimizes the amount of land inventories on our consolidated balance sheets. In certain cases, these contracts will be settled shortly following the end of the period. Our obligation with respect to Option Contracts is generally limited to forfeiture of the related deposits. At March 31,June 30, 2023, we had cash deposits, capitalized costs and letters of credit totaling $19.2$21.9 million, $2.6$3.2 million and $2.2$2.6 million, respectively, at risk associated with the optionoptions to purchase 2,9513,765 lots.

17.    Derivative and Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, we enter into interest rate lock commitments ("IRLCs") with borrowers who have applied for loan funding and meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. Since we can terminate IRLCs if the borrower does not comply with the terms of the contract, and some IRLCs may expire without being utilized, these IRLCs do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time we originate a mortgage loan or we enter into an IRLC and the date the loan is committed or sold to an investor. We mitigate our exposure to interest rate market risk relating to mortgage loans held-for-sale and IRLCs using: (1) forward sales of mortgage-backed securities, which are commitments to sell a specified financial instrument at a specified future date for a specified price, (2) mandatory delivery forward loan sale commitments, which are obligations of an investor to buy loans at a specified price within a specified time period, and (3) best-effort delivery forward loan sale commitments, which are obligations of an investor to buy loans at a specified price subject to the underlying mortgage loans being funded and closed. The best-effort delivery forward loan sale commitments do not meet the definition of a derivative financial instrument in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"). We have elected the fair value option for the best-effort delivery forward loan sale commitments in accordance with ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825").
Forward sales of mortgage-backed securities are the predominant derivative and financial instruments we use to minimize market risk during the period from the time we extend an interest rate lock to a loan applicant until the time the loan is committed under a best-effort or mandatory delivery forward loan sale commitment.

18.    Lines of Credit
Revolving Credit Facility. We have an unsecured revolving credit agreement (“Revolving Credit Facility”) with a group of lenders which may be used for general corporate purposes. This agreement was amended on December 28, 2020 to (1) increase the aggregate commitment from $1.0 billion to $1.2 billion (the “Commitment”), (2) extend the Revolving Credit Facility maturity of $1.125 billion of the Commitments to December 18, 2025 with the remaining Commitment continuing to terminate on December 18, 2023 and (3) provide that the aggregate amount of the commitments may increase to an amount not to exceed $1.7 billion upon our request, subject to receipt of additional commitments from existing or additional lenders and, in the case of additional lenders, the consent of the co-administrative agents.
Effective April 11, 2023, the Revolving Credit Facility was amended to transition from a eurocurrency based interest rate to an interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). As defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, interest rates on base rate borrowings are equal to the highest of (1) 0.0%, (2) a prime rate, (3) a federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and (4) the one month term SOFR screen rate plus the SOFR adjustment plus 1.00% and, in each case, plus a margin that is determined based on our credit ratings and leverage ratio. Interest rates on SOFR borrowings are equal to the greater of (1) 0.0% and (2) the sum of the term SOFR screen rate for such interest period plus the SOFR adjustment, plus a margin that is determined based on our credit ratings and leverage ratio. At any time at which our leverage ratio, as of the last day of the most recent calendar quarter, exceeds 55%, the aggregate principal amount of all consolidated senior debt borrowings outstanding may not exceed the borrowing base. There is no borrowing base requirement if our leverage ratio, as of the last day of the most recent calendar quarter, is 55% or less.
The Revolving Credit Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by most of our homebuilding segment subsidiaries. The facility contains various representations, warranties and covenants that we believe are customary for agreements of this type. The financial covenants include a consolidated tangible net worth test and a leverage test, along with a consolidated tangible net worth covenant, all as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility. A failure to satisfy the foregoing tests does not constitute an event of default, but can trigger a “term-out” of the facility. A breach of the consolidated tangible net worth covenant (but not the consolidated tangible net worth test) or a violation of anti-corruption or sanctions laws would result in an event of default.
The Revolving Credit Facility is subject to acceleration upon certain specified events of default, including breach of the consolidated tangible net worth covenant, a violation of anti-corruption or sanctions laws, failure to make timely payments, breaches of certain representations or covenants, failure to pay other material indebtedness, or another person becoming beneficial owner of 50% or more of our outstanding common stock. We believe we were in compliance with the representations, warranties and covenants included in the Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31,June 30, 2023.
We incur costs associated with unused commitment fees pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility. At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $47.1$46.7 million and $48.3 million, respectively, in letters of credit outstanding, which reduced the amounts available to be borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility. At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $10.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $1.14 billion.

Mortgage Repurchase Facility. HomeAmerican has a Master Repurchase Agreement (the “Mortgage Repurchase Facility”) with U.S. Bank National Association (“USBNA”). The Mortgage Repurchase Facility provides liquidity to HomeAmerican by providing for the sale of up to an aggregate of $75 million (subject to increase by up to $75 million under certain conditions) of eligible mortgage loans to USBNA with an agreement by HomeAmerican to repurchase the mortgage loans at a future date. Until such mortgage loans are transferred back to HomeAmerican, the documents relating to such loans are held by USBNA, as custodian, pursuant to the Custody Agreement (“Custody Agreement”), dated as of November 12, 2008, by and between HomeAmerican and USBNA. In the event that an eligible mortgage loan becomes ineligible, as defined under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility, HomeAmerican may be required to repurchase the ineligible mortgage loan immediately. The Mortgage Repurchase Facility was amended on September 24, 2020, March 25, 2021, May 20, 2021, December 21, 2021, and May 19, 2022 and May 18, 2023 to adjust the commitments to purchase for specific time periods. The total capacity of the facility at March 31,June 30, 2023 was $230$125 million. The May 19, 202218, 2023 amendment extended the termination date of the Repurchase Agreement to May 18, 2023. We are currently in negotiations to extend the Mortgage Repurchase Facility.16, 2024.

At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, HomeAmerican had $130.5$123.2 million and $175.8 million, respectively, of mortgage loans that HomeAmerican was obligated to repurchase under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility. Mortgage loans that HomeAmerican is obligated to repurchase under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility are accounted for as a debt financing arrangement and are reported as mortgage repurchase facility in the consolidated balance sheets. Pricing under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility is based on the SOFR.

The Mortgage Repurchase Facility contains various representations, warranties and affirmative and negative covenants that we believe are customary for agreements of this type. The negative covenants include, among others, (i) a minimum Adjusted Tangible Net Worth requirement, (ii) a maximum Adjusted Tangible Net Worth ratio, (iii) a minimum adjusted net income requirement, and (iv) a minimum Liquidity requirement. The foregoing capitalized terms are defined in the Mortgage Repurchase Facility. We believe HomeAmerican was in compliance with the representations, warranties and covenants included in the Mortgage Repurchase Facility as of March 31,June 30, 2023.

Overview
Industry Conditions and Outlook for MDC*

The housing market inDuring the firstsecond quarter of 2023, presented more challengingindustry conditions comparedcontinued to the same period in the prior year,improve from those experienced during much of 2022. Demand increased and cancellations normalized as the historically strong demand experienced in the prior year quarter began to weaken beginning in mid-2022 due to the sharp increases in interest rates inflation concerns,stabilized and various other economic uncertainties.buyers adjusted to higher interest rate levels. In addition, existing home inventory levels remained constrained as home sale listings continued to decline, dropping below pre-pandemic levels. In comparison, the magnitude and speed of interest rate increases during the second quarter of 2022 caused many buyers to pause and reconsider a home purchase, resulting in lower gross demand and higher cancellation levels. As a result, our net orders and net order value decreased 44%increased 54% and 48%37%, respectively, in the firstsecond quarter of 2023 as compared to the firstsecond quarter of 2022. WhileSupply chain conditions have also normalized to a large degree with our 2023 firstaverage construction build time for closed homes improving on a sequential basis in the second quarter monthly absorption rate of 2.6 homes per community per month remained below our pre-pandemic levels, we experienced sequential increases in our monthly absorption rate as the quarter progressed. On a gross basis (excluding cancellations) our monthly absorption rate was 3.7 homes per community per month2023 for the first quarter of 2023. We were pleased with our ability to sell and close our quick move-in inventory during the quarter, whichtime in over two years. These improvements allowed us to turn our inventories quicker than expected. We remain focused on balancing our pace of sales and pricing and incentive levelsexpected, leading to maximize profitability while continuing to turn our inventory. As a result, we delivered strong top and bottom line results and generated positive cash flow from operations in the firstsecond quarter of 2023 despite the volatile market conditions that2023. We expect our construction build times to continue to impactimprove in the homebuilding industry.second half of the year based on the projected construction build times of our homes currently under construction. As a result, we are currently projecting deliveries for the 2023 full year of at least 8,000 homes.

We ended the quarter with 9.3 unsold homes under construction, excluding model homes, ("speculative homes" or "spec homes") per active community and just 0.8 completed spec homes per active community. The demand for our quick move-in homes remained strong during the second quarter, with spec homes representing 67% of our gross orders. As we continue to pivot our operations to prioritize an increased number of spec homes, we have recently introduced our Curated by the Home GalleryTM collection. These homes include finish details selected by members of our professional design team specific to home plans and geography. Our curated collection allows us to capitalize on our design expertise, given our experience with build-to-order homes, to deliver thoughtfully designed homes to quick move-in homebuyers.

We remain confident in the long-term growth prospects for the industry given the underproduction of new homes over the past decade and the softeningdecreasing supply of re-saleexisting home inventory due to homeowners holding on to extremely low mortgage rates.inventory. With that said, the current demand for new homes is subject to continued uncertainty due to many factors, including ongoing inflation concerns, the Federal Reserve's quantitative tightening and the resulting impact on mortgage interest rates, consumer confidence, the current geopolitical environment and other factors. The potential effect of these factors is highly uncertain and could adversely and materially impact our operations and financial results in future periods.

We believe that we are uniquely equipped to navigate these uncertainties and any continued market volatility given our seasoned leadership team, strong financial position and distinct operating strategy. We remain focused on maximizing risk-adjusted returns while minimizing the risks of excess leverage and land ownership. We ended the quarter with total cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $1.61$1.83 billion, total liquidity of $2.79$2.97 billion, a debt-to-capital ratio of 32.3%31.7% and no senior note maturities until 2030.

Three Months Ended March 31,June 30, 2023

For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, our net income was $80.7$93.5 million, or $1.08$1.24 per diluted share, a 46%51% decrease compared to net income of $148.4$189.5 million, or $2.02$2.59 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. Our homebuilding business was the primary driver of the decrease, as pretax income decreased $97.5$148.2 million, or 52%62% year-over-year. This decrease was partially offset by our financial services business, as its pretax income increased $4.6$2.3 million, or 34%12%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in homebuilding pretax income was primarily due to an 18%a 24% decrease in home sale revenues and an 890a 1,040 basis point decrease in gross margin from home sales. The decrease in gross margin from home sales was driven largely by an increase in both incentives and construction costs year-over-year, and to a lesser extent by $7.8as well as $13.5 million of inventory impairments recognized during the current year period. These itemsdecreases were partially offset by a 110 basis point decreaseproject abandonment expense of $15.5 million during the prior year quarter compared to just $0.1 million in our selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue.the current quarter. The increase in financial services pretax income was due to both our mortgage and other financial services operations. The increase in pretax income for our mortgage operations was due to a decrease in salary related expenses driven by lower headcount, an increase in capture rate and the allocation of revenue from our homebuilding business associated with our financing incentives. Our other financial services operations and homebuilding business each saw an increase in interest income due to increases in both interest rates and our cash and short-term investments year-over-year.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, our net income was $174.2 million, or $2.33 per diluted share, a 48% decrease compared to net income of $338.0 million, or $4.61 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year. Our homebuilding business was the driver of the decrease, as pretax income from our homebuilding operations decreased $245.7 million, or 57%. This was slightly offset by our financial services pretax income, which increased $6.9 million, or 21%. The main drivers of the decrease in homebuilding pretax income and increase in financial services pretax income are consistent with the second quarter commentary discussed above.

The increase in the Corporate segment assets was driven by an increase to cash and cash equivalents as well as marketable securities. The decrease in the West and Mountain segments assets was driven by adecreases in home sale receivables and land and land under development. The decrease in home sale receivables was driven by the timing of home closings at the end of the period. The decrease in land and land under development andwas due to lower levels of land acquisition.

For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, the decrease in the number of new homes delivered in each of our segments was the result of a decrease in the number of homes in backlog to begin the period. This decrease was partially offset within each segment by an increase in backlog conversion rates due to an increase in the number of homes both sold and closed during the quarter. This increase was a result of our recent pivot to focus more on spec homes and the year-over-year increase in the number of unsold started homes to begin the period as a result of the above average cancellation rates experienced in the second half of 20222022. The average selling price of homes delivered was negatively impacted by increased incentives during the three and our recent pivot to focus more on speculative construction starts.six months ended June 30, 2023.

For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, the increase in the number of net new orders in each of our segments was the result of an increase in the monthly sales absorption pace. This was driven by a higher pace of gross orders (before cancellations) as well as a decrease in cancellations as a percentage of gross sales during the period. Gross orders in the prior year began to slow beginning in the second quarter due to the magnitude and speed of interest rate increases. The increase in net new orders in each of our segments was also partially due to an increase in average active subdivisions year-over-year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the decrease in the number of net new orders in each of our segments was the result of a decrease in the monthly sales absorption pace. This was driven by a lower pace of gross orders (before cancellations) as well as an increase in cancellations as both a percentage of homes in beginning backlog to start the quarterperiod and a percentage of gross sales during the quarterperiod (“cancellation rates”). Gross orders in the prior year, specifically during the first quarter, benefited from historically strong demand, which began to weaken beginningsoften in mid-2022 due to the sharp increases in interest rates, inflation concerns, and various other economic uncertainties.second quarter of 2022 as noted above. See the "Cancellation Rate" section below for commentary on the increase in our cancellation rates.

In light of our recent pivot to focus more on speculative construction starts,spec homes, we believe it is appropriate to view our cancellations as a product of both our beginning backlog as well as our gross sales during the period. While ourOur cancellation rate as a percentage of homes in beginning backlog increased year-over-year in each of our segments, this increase was less significant when vieweddue to a decrease in beginning backlog to start the period. However, our cancellation rate as a percentage of gross sales. These increases weresales decreased year-over-year during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of the recent softening in housing marketimproved demand homebuyer sentiment, as well as the strong demand levels we experiencedimpact the sharp increase in mortgage interest rates in the first quarterprior year period had on our homebuyers in backlog who where unable to lock their interest rate prior to these increases.

At March 31,June 30, 2023, we had 2,8903,048 homes in backlog with a total value of $1.66$1.76 billion. This represented a 66%59% decrease in both the number of homes in backlog and 60% decrease in the dollar value of those homes in backlog from March 31,June 30, 2022. The decrease in the number of homes in backlog was primarily a result of a decrease in the level of net new orders during the second half of 2022, which continued to a lesser degree into the first quarter of 2023, as well as a shift in consumer preference to quick move-in homes and our associated pivot to focus on more speculative construction startsspec homes to supplement build-to-order construction activity. This was partially offset by an increase in cycle times year-over-year. The increasedecrease in average selling price in each of our Mountain segmentsegments was driven by decreases in base pricing during the second half of 2022 in most communities and to a change in mix to higher priced communities.lesser extent increased incentives. Our ability to convert backlog into closings could be negatively impacted in future periods by ongoing inflation concerns, the Federal Reserve's quantitative tightening and the resulting impact on mortgage interest rates, consumer confidence, the current geopolitical environment and other factors, the extent to which is highly uncertain and depends on future developments.

For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, our financial services pretax income increased to $18.0$21.0 million compared to $13.4$18.7 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2022. The increase in financial services pretax income was due to bothdriven by our mortgage and our other financial services operations. The increase in pretax income for our mortgage operations was due to a decrease in salary related expenses driven by lower headcount, an increase in capture rate and the allocation of revenue from our homebuilding business associated with our financing incentives. The decrease in other financial services was driven by our insurance operations which saw a decrease in revenue due to a decrease in homes closed, partially offset by an increase in interest income due to increases in both interest rates and our cash and short-term investments year-over-year.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, our financial services pretax income increased to $39.0 million compared to $32.1 million in the prior year period. The increase in financial services pretax income was due to both our mortgage and other financial services operations. The main drivers of the increase in mortgage operations is consistent with the second quarter commentary discussed above. The increase in other financial services was driven by our insurance operations which saw an increase in interest income due to increases in both interest rates and our cash and short-term investments year-over-year.year-over-year, partially offset by a decrease in revenue due to a decrease in homes closed.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management evaluates such estimates and judgments on an on-going basis and makes adjustments as deemed necessary. Actual results could differ from these estimates if conditions are significantly different in the future. See "Forward-Looking Statements" below.
Our critical accounting estimates and policies have not changed from those reported in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We use our liquidity and capital resources to (1) support our operations, including the purchase of land, land development and construction of homes; (2) provide working capital; and (3) provide mortgage loans for our homebuyers. Our liquidity includes our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) and Mortgage Repurchase Facility (as defined below). Additionally, we have an existing effective shelf registration statement that allows us to issue equity, debt or hybrid securities up to $5.0 billion, of which $5.0 billion remains.
Material Cash Requirements
We are a party to many contractual obligations involving commitments to make payments to third parties. These obligations impact our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. Certain contractual obligations are reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31,June 30, 2023, while others are considered future commitments. Our contractual obligations primarily consist of long-term debt and related interest payments, payments due on our Mortgage Repurchase Facility, purchase obligations related to expected acquisition of land under purchase agreements and land development agreements (many of which are secured by letters of credit or surety bonds) and operating leases. Other material cash requirements include land acquisition and development costs not yet contracted for, home construction costs, operating expenses, including our selling, general and administrative expenses, investments and funding of capital improvements and dividend payments.
At March 31,June 30, 2023, we had outstanding senior notes with varying maturities totaling an aggregate principal amount of $1.5$1.50 billion, with none payable within 12 months. Future interest payments associated with the notes total $1.3$1.29 billion, with $64.2 million payable within 12 months. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, we had $28.5$27.5 million of required operating lease future minimum payments.
At March 31,June 30, 2023, we had deposits of $20.1$22.6 million in the form of cash and $2.7$3.2 million in the form of letters of credit that secured option contracts to purchase 2,9513,765 lots for a total estimated purchase price of $332.8$409.8 million.
At March 31,June 30, 2023, we had outstanding surety bonds and letters of credit totaling $359.1$333.0 million and $116.0$108.1 million, respectively, including $68.9$61.4 million in letters of credit issued by HomeAmerican. The estimated cost to complete obligations related to these bonds and letters of credit was approximately $157.3$150.7 million and $75.1$69.4 million, respectively. We expect that the obligations secured by these performance bonds and letters of credit generally will be performed in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with the applicable contractual terms. To the extent that the obligations are performed, the related performance bonds and letters of credit should be released and we should not have any continuing obligations. However, in the event any such performance bonds or letters of credit are called, our indemnity obligations could require us to reimburse the issuer of the performance bond or letter of credit. We have made no material guarantees with respect to third-party obligations.
Capital Resources
Our capital structure is primarily a combination of (1) permanent financing, represented by stockholders’ equity; (2) long-term financing, represented by our 3.850% senior notes due 2030, 2.500% senior notes due 2031, 6.000% senior notes due 2043, and 3.966% senior notes due 2061; (3) our Revolving Credit Facility and (4) our Mortgage Repurchase Facility. Because of our current balance of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, ability to access the capital markets, and available capacity under both our Revolving Credit Facility and Mortgage Repurchase Facility, we believe that our capital resources are
-34--36-

Table of Contents
adequate to satisfy our short and long-term capital requirements, including meeting future payments on our senior notes as they become due. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding senior notes through cash purchases, whether through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
Senior Notes, Revolving Credit Facility and Mortgage Repurchase Facility
Senior Notes. Our senior notes are not secured and, while the senior note indentures contain some restrictions on secured debt and other transactions, they do not contain financial covenants. Our senior notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by most of our homebuilding segment subsidiaries. We believe that we are in compliance with the representations, warranties and covenants in the senior note indentures.
Revolving Credit Facility. We have an unsecured revolving credit agreement (“Revolving Credit Facility”) with a group of lenders, which may be used for general corporate purposes. This agreement was amended on December 28, 2020 to (1) increase the aggregate commitment from $1.0 billion to $1.2 billion (the "Commitment"), (2) extend the Revolving Credit Facility maturity of $1.125 billion of the Commitments to December 18, 2025 with the remaining Commitment continuing to terminate on December 18, 2023 and (3) provide that the aggregate amount of the commitments may increase to an amount not to exceed $1.7 billion upon our request, subject to receipt of additional commitments from existing or additional lenders and, in the case of additional lenders, the consent of the co-administrative agents.
Effective April 11, 2023, the Revolving Credit Facility was amended to transition from a eurocurrency based interest rate to an interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). As defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, interest rates on base rate borrowings are equal to the highest of (1) 0.0%, (2) a prime rate, (3) a federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and (4) the one month term SOFR screen rate plus the SOFR adjustment plus 1.00% and, in each case, plus a margin that is determined based on our credit ratings and leverage ratio. Interest rates on SOFR borrowings are equal to the greater of (1) 0.0% and (2) the sum of the term SOFR screen rate for such interest period plus the SOFR adjustment, plus a margin that is determined based on our credit ratings and leverage ratio. At any time at which our leverage ratio, as of the last day of the most recent calendar quarter, exceeds 55%, the aggregate principal amount of all consolidated senior debt borrowings outstanding may not exceed the borrowing base. There is no borrowing base requirement if our leverage ratio, as of the last day of the most recent calendar quarter, is 55% or less.
The Revolving Credit Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by most of our homebuilding segment subsidiaries. The facility contains various representations, warranties and covenants that we believe are customary for agreements of this type. The financial covenants include a consolidated tangible net worth test and a leverage test, along with a consolidated tangible net worth covenant, all as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility. A failure to satisfy the foregoing tests does not constitute an event of default, but can trigger a “term-out” of the facility. A breach of the consolidated tangible net worth covenant (but not the consolidated tangible net worth test) or a violation of anti-corruption or sanctions laws would result in an event of default.
The Revolving Credit Facility is subject to acceleration upon certain specified events of default, including breach of the consolidated tangible net worth covenant, a violation of anti-corruption or sanctions laws, failure to make timely payments, breaches of certain representations or covenants, failure to pay other material indebtedness, or another person becoming beneficial owner of 50% or more of our outstanding common stock. We believe we were in compliance with the representations, warranties and covenants included in the Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31,June 30, 2023.
We incur costs associated with unused commitment fees pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility. At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were $47.1$46.7 million and $48.3 million, respectively, in letters of credit outstanding, which reduced the amounts available to be borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility. At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $10.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $1.14 billion.

Mortgage Repurchase Facility. HomeAmerican has a Master Repurchase Agreement (the “Mortgage Repurchase Facility”) with U.S. Bank National Association (“USBNA”). The Mortgage Repurchase Facility provides liquidity to HomeAmerican by providing for the sale of up to an aggregate of $75 million (subject to increase by up to $75 million under certain conditions) of eligible mortgage loans to USBNA with an agreement by HomeAmerican to repurchase the mortgage loans at a future date. Until such mortgage loans are transferred back to HomeAmerican, the documents relating to such loans are held by USBNA, as custodian, pursuant to the Custody Agreement (“Custody Agreement”), dated as of November 12, 2008, by and between HomeAmerican and USBNA. In the event that an eligible mortgage loan becomes ineligible, as defined under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility, HomeAmerican may be required to repurchase the ineligible mortgage loan immediately. The Mortgage Repurchase Facility was amended on September 24, 2020, March 25, 2021, May 20, 2021, December 21, 2021, and May 19, 2022 and May 18, 2023 to adjust the commitments to purchase for specific time periods. The total capacity of the facility at March 31,June 30, 2023 was $230$125 million. The May 19, 202218, 2023 amendment extended the termination date of the Repurchase Agreement to May 18, 2023. We are currently in negotiations to extend the Mortgage Repurchase Facility.16, 2024.

At March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, HomeAmerican had $130.5$123.2 million and $175.8 million, respectively, of mortgage loans that HomeAmerican was obligated to repurchase under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility. Mortgage loans that HomeAmerican is obligated to repurchase under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility are accounted for as a debt financing arrangement and are reported as mortgage repurchase facility in the consolidated balance sheets. Pricing under the Mortgage Repurchase Facility is based on the SOFR.
The Mortgage Repurchase Facility contains various representations, warranties and affirmative and negative covenants that we believe are customary for agreements of this type. The negative covenants include, among others, (i) a minimum Adjusted Tangible Net Worth requirement, (ii) a maximum Adjusted Tangible Net Worth ratio, (iii) a minimum adjusted net income requirement, and (iv) a minimum Liquidity requirement. The foregoing capitalized terms are defined in the Mortgage Repurchase Facility. We believe HomeAmerican was in compliance with the representations, warranties and covenants included in the Mortgage Repurchase Facility as of March 31,June 30, 2023.
Dividends
During the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022, we paid cash dividends of $0.50 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we paid cash dividends of $1.00 per share.
MDC Common Stock Repurchase Program
At March 31,June 30, 2023, we were authorized to repurchase up to 4.0 million shares of our common stock. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2023.

The changeschange in both prepaids and other assets and accounts payable and accrued liabilities were due to decreased construction spend during the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of the year-over-year decrease in home deliveries and homes in inventory.
During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $244.8$107.0 million and $6.9$13.7 million, respectively. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was driven by $434.4$665.5 million of cash used in the purchase of marketable securities during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023.

Under this policy, cash and cash equivalents may include U.S. government securities, commercial bank deposits, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, money market funds, and time deposits, with maturities of three months or less. Marketable securities under this policy may include holdings in U.S. government securities with a maturity of more than three months, equity securities and corporate debt securities.
As of March 31,June 30, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents included commercial bank deposits and money market funds and our marketable securities included U.S. government treasury securities with original maturities upon acquisition of less than six months.
We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on mortgage loans held-for-sale, mortgage interest rate lock commitments, marketable securities and debt. Financial instruments utilized in the normal course of business by HomeAmerican include forward sales of mortgage-backed securities, which are commitments to sell a specified financial instrument at a specified future date for a specified price, mandatory delivery forward loan sale commitments, which are obligations of an investor to buy loans at a specified price within a specified time period, and best-effort delivery forward loan sale commitments, which are obligations of an investor to buy loans at a specified price subject to the underlying mortgage loans being funded and closed. Such contracts are the only significant financial and derivative instruments utilized by MDC. HomeAmerican’s mortgage loans in process for which an interest rate lock commitment had been made to a borrower that had not closed at March 31,June 30, 2023 had an aggregate principal balance of $391.5$255.4 million, of which $385.7$253.7 million had not yet been committed to a mortgage purchaser. In addition, HomeAmerican had mortgage loans held-for-sale with an aggregate principal balance of $165.9$156.8 million at March 31,June 30, 2023, of which $53.8$108.6 million had not yet been committed to a mortgage purchaser. In order to hedge the changes in fair value of interest rate lock commitments and mortgage loans held-for-sale that had not yet been committed to a mortgage purchaser, HomeAmerican had forward sales of securities totaling $362.5$303.5 million and $323.0 million at March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

HomeAmerican provides mortgage loans that generally are sold forward on a best-efforts or mandatory commitment basis and subsequently delivered to a third-party purchaser between 5 and 35 days after closing. Forward sale commitments and forward sales of mortgage-backed securities are used for non-trading purposes to sell mortgage loans and economically hedge price risk due to fluctuations in interest rates on rate-locked mortgage loans in process that have not closed and mortgage loans held-for-sale. Due to this economic hedging philosophy, the market risk associated with these mortgages is limited. For forward sales commitments, forward sales of mortgage-backed securities and commitments to originate mortgage loans that are still outstanding at the end of a reporting period, we record the changes in fair value of these financial instruments in revenues in the financial services section of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income with an offset to either other assets or accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the financial services section of our consolidated balance sheets, depending on the nature of the change.
We utilize our Revolving Credit Facility, our Mortgage Repurchase Facility and senior notes in our financing strategy. For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but do not affect our earnings or cash flows. We do not have an obligation to prepay our senior notes prior to maturity and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value do not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. For variable rate debt such as our Revolving Credit Facility and Mortgage Repurchase Facility, changes in interest rates generally do not affect the fair value of the outstanding borrowing on the debt facilities, but do affect our earnings and cash flows. See “Forward-Looking Statements” above.

Financial industry turmoil could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and consolidated financial statements.
The banking industry has experienced certain bank failures and other turmoil in 2023. The failure of other banks or financial institutions, if it occurs, could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity or consolidated financial statements if we have placed cash or other deposits at such banks or financial institutions, or if such banks or financial institutions, or any substitute or additional banks or financial institutions, participate in our Revolving Credit Facility. Under our Revolving Credit Facility, non-defaulting lenders are not obligated to cover or acquire a defaulting lender’s respective commitment to fund loans or to issue letters of credit and may be unwilling to issue additional letters of credit if we do not enter into arrangements to address the risk with respect to the defaulting lender (which may include cash collateral). If the non-defaulting lenders are unable or unwilling to cover or acquire a defaulting lender’s respective commitment, we may not be able to access the Revolving Credit Facility’s full borrowing or letter of credit capacity to support our business needs. In addition, if a buyer under our Mortgage Repurchase Facility, which is used to fund mortgage originations, fails or is unable or unwilling to fulfill its obligations, HomeAmerican may be limited in its ability to provide mortgage loans to our homebuyers, which may prevent them from closing on their homes at the time expected or at all.
