Segment Disclosures | Segment DisclosuresWe disclose four homebuilding reportable segments that aggregate geographically our homebuilding operating segments, and we present our mortgage banking operations as one reportable segment. The homebuilding reportable segments are comprised of operating divisions in the following geographic areas: Mid Atlantic: Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware and Washington, D.C. North East: New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania Mid East: New York, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois South East: North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida and Georgia Homebuilding profit before tax includes all revenues and income generated from the sale of homes, less the cost of homes sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and a corporate capital allocation charge. The corporate capital allocation charge is eliminated in consolidation and is based on the segment’s average net assets employed. The corporate capital allocation charged to the operating segment allows the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to determine whether the operating segment’s results are providing the desired rate of return after covering our cost of capital. Assets not allocated to the operating segments are not included in either the operating segment’s corporate capital allocation charge or the CODM’s evaluation of the operating segment’s performance. We record charges on contract land deposits when it is determined that it is probable that recovery of the deposit is impaired. For segment reporting purposes, impairments on contract land deposits are generally charged to the operating segment upon the termination of an LPA with the developer, or the restructuring of an LPA resulting in the forfeiture of the deposit. Mortgage banking profit before tax consists of revenues generated from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the costs of such services and general and administrative costs. Mortgage banking operations are not charged a corporate capital allocation charge. In addition to the corporate capital allocation and contract land deposit impairments discussed above, the other reconciling items between segment profit and consolidated profit before tax include unallocated corporate overhead (including all management incentive compensation), equity-based compensation expense, consolidation adjustments and external corporate interest expense. Our overhead functions such as accounting, treasury and human resources are centrally performed and these costs are not allocated to our operating segments. Consolidation adjustments consist of such items necessary to convert the reportable segments’ results, which are predominantly maintained on a cash basis, to a full accrual basis for external financial statement presentation purposes, and are not allocated to our operating segments. External corporate interest expense primarily consists of interest charges on our 3.00% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Senior Notes”), which are not charged to the operating segments because the charges are included in the corporate capital allocation discussed above. The f ollowing tables present segment revenues, profit and assets with reconciliations to the amounts reported for the consolidated enterprise, where applicable: Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 2022 Revenues: Homebuilding Mid Atlantic $ 941,148 $ 1,141,708 Homebuilding North East 183,430 175,551 Homebuilding Mid East 402,397 461,405 Homebuilding South East 604,358 530,563 Mortgage Banking 46,944 69,182 Total consolidated revenues $ 2,178,277 $ 2,378,409 Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 2022 Income before taxes: Homebuilding Mid Atlantic $ 159,038 $ 249,781 Homebuilding North East 32,060 25,928 Homebuilding Mid East 56,468 71,183 Homebuilding South East 125,409 113,454 Mortgage Banking 29,427 50,106 Total segment profit before taxes 402,402 510,452 Reconciling items: Contract land deposit reserve adjustment (1) 3,591 5,926 Equity-based compensation expense (2) (22,277) (11,668) Corporate capital allocation (3) 69,074 69,744 Unallocated corporate overhead (45,965) (45,261) Consolidation adjustments and other (4) 4,000 48,760 Corporate interest expense (6,954) (12,755) Corporate interest income 29,939 747 Reconciling items sub-total 31,408 55,493 Consolidated income before taxes $ 433,810 $ 565,945 (1) This item represents changes to the contract land deposit impairment reserve, which are not allocated to the reportable segments. See further discussion of lot deposit impairment charges in Note 2. (2) The increase in equity-based compensation expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 was primarily attributable to the issuance of a four year block grant of Options and RSUs in the second quarter of 2022. (3) This item represents the elimination of the corporate capital allocation charge included in the respective homebuilding reportable segments. The corporate capital allocation charge is based on the segment’s monthly average asset balance, and was as follows for the periods presented: Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 2022 Corporate capital allocation charge: Homebuilding Mid Atlantic $ 33,179 $ 34,087 Homebuilding North East 7,325 7,087 Homebuilding Mid East 9,660 11,417 Homebuilding South East 18,910 17,153 Total $ 69,074 $ 69,744 (4) The consolidation adjustments and other in each period are primarily driven by changes in units under construction as well as significant fluctuations in lumber prices year over year. Our reportable segments' results include the intercompany profits of our production facilities for home packages delivered to our homebuilding divisions. Costs related to homes not yet settled are reversed through the consolidation adjustment and recorded in inventory. These costs are subsequently recorded through the consolidation adjustment when the respective homes are settled. In the first quarter of 2023, the consolidation adjustment was negatively impacted by the recognition of previously deferred home package costs that included higher priced lumber. This impact was offset partially by a reduction in the number of units under construction year over year, resulting in a decrease in intercompany profits deferred, as compared to the first quarter of 2022.
