NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

March 31, 2024

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include the accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. and all of its wholly-owned, majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the Company, unless the context otherwise requires. Noncontrolling interests represent the proportionate equity interests in consolidated entities that are not 100% owned by the Company. As of March 31, 2024, the Company owned a 62% controlling interest in Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar) and therefore is required to consolidate 100% of Forestar within its consolidated financial statements, and the 38% interest the Company does not own is accounted for as noncontrolling interests. All intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. These financial statements, including the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023, which was derived from audited financial statements, do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and 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 fiscal year ended September 30, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Seasonality

Historically, the homebuilding industry has experienced seasonal fluctuations; therefore, the operating results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024 or subsequent periods.

Pending Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosures. The ASU expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. It also requires disclosure of the amount and description of the composition of other segment items and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation and modifies other income tax related disclosures. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

March 31, 2024

NOTE B – SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company is a national homebuilder that is primarily engaged in the acquisition and development of land and the construction and sale of residential homes, with operations in 119 markets across 33 states. The Company’s operating segments are its 84 homebuilding divisions, its rental operations, its majority-owned Forestar residential lot development operations, its financial services operations and its other business activities. The Company’s reporting segments are its homebuilding reporting segments, its rental operations segment, its Forestar lot development segment and its financial services segment.

Homebuilding

The homebuilding operating segments are aggregated into six reporting segments. The reporting segments and the states in which the Company has homebuilding operations are as follows:


			Northwest:						Colorado, Oregon, Utah and Washington
			Southwest:						Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada and New Mexico
			South Central:						Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas
			Southeast:						Alabama, Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi
			East:						Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee
			North:						Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia

The Company’s homebuilding divisions design, build and sell single-family detached homes on lots they develop and on fully developed lots purchased ready for home construction. To a lesser extent, the homebuilding divisions also build and sell attached homes, such as townhomes, duplexes and triplexes. Most of the revenue generated by the Company’s homebuilding operations is from the sale of completed homes and to a lesser extent from the sale of land and lots.

Rental

The Company’s rental segment consists of single-family and multi-family rental operations. The single-family rental operations primarily construct and lease single-family homes within a community and then market each community for a bulk sale of rental homes. The multi-family rental operations develop, construct, lease and sell residential rental properties.

Forestar

The Forestar segment is a residential lot development company with operations in 57 markets across 23 states. The Company’s homebuilding divisions acquire finished lots from Forestar in accordance with the master supply agreement between the two companies. Forestar’s segment results are presented on their historical cost basis, consistent with the manner in which management evaluates segment performance.

Financial Services

The Company’s financial services segment provides mortgage financing, title agency services and title insurance to homebuyers in many of the Company’s homebuilding markets. The segment generates the substantial majority of its revenues from originating and selling mortgages, collecting premiums and fees for escrow closing services and collecting premiums for title insurance. The Company sells substantially all of the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers.

Other

In addition to its homebuilding, rental, Forestar and financial services operations, the Company engages in other business activities through its subsidiaries. The Company conducts insurance-related operations, owns water rights and other water-related assets and owns non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements. The results of these operations are immaterial for separate reporting and therefore are grouped together and presented in the Eliminations and Other column in the tables that follow.

March 31, 2024

Homebuilding

The Company has a $2.19 billion senior unsecured homebuilding revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $3.0 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to 100% of the total revolving credit commitments. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The maturity date of the facility is October 28, 2027. At March 31, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding and $213.7 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility, resulting in available capacity of $1.98 billion.

The Company’s homebuilding revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on its operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable leverage ratio and a borrowing base restriction if the leverage ratio exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility and the indentures governing the senior notes also impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its homebuilding revolving credit facility and public debt obligations.

The Company’s homebuilding revolving credit facility and homebuilding senior notes are guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc.’s significant wholly-owned homebuilding subsidiaries.

D.R. Horton has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in July 2021, registering debt and equity securities that the Company may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined.

In July 2019, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s debt securities. The authorization has no expiration date. All of the $500 million authorization was remaining at March 31, 2024.

Rental

The Company’s rental subsidiary, DRH Rental, has a $1.05 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $2.0 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. Availability under the rental revolving credit facility is subject to a borrowing base calculation based on the book value of DRH Rental’s real estate assets and unrestricted cash. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to the greater of $100 million and 50% of the total revolving credit commitments. The maturity date of the facility is October 10, 2027. Borrowings and repayments under the facility totaled $985 million and $400 million, respectively, during the six months ended March 31, 2024. At March 31, 2024, there were $985 million of borrowings outstanding at a 7.4% annual interest rate and no letters of credit issued under the facility, resulting in available capacity of $65 million.

The rental revolving credit facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and financial covenants. The financial covenants require DRH Rental to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, a minimum level of liquidity and a maximum allowable leverage ratio. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. At March 31, 2024, DRH Rental was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility.

Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the debt of the Company’s homebuilding, Forestar or financial services operations.

Forestar

Forestar has a $410 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $600 million, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to the greater of $100 million and 50% of the total revolving credit commitments. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base calculation based on the book value of Forestar’s real estate assets and unrestricted cash. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The maturity date of the facility is October 28, 2026. At March 31, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding and $28.0 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility, resulting in available capacity of $382.0 million.

The Forestar revolving credit facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and financial covenants. The financial covenants require Forestar to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, a minimum level of liquidity and a maximum allowable leverage ratio. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. At March 31, 2024, Forestar was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility and senior note obligations.

Forestar’s revolving credit facility and its senior notes are guaranteed by Forestar’s wholly-owned subsidiaries that are not immaterial subsidiaries or have not been designated as unrestricted subsidiaries. They are not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the debt of the Company’s homebuilding, rental or financial services operations.

In April 2020, Forestar’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $30 million of Forestar’s debt securities. The authorization has no expiration date. All of the $30 million authorization was remaining at March 31, 2024.

Financial Services

The Company’s mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has two mortgage repurchase facilities, one of which is committed and the other of which is uncommitted, that provide financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to counterparties upon receipt of funds from the counterparties. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facilities.

In February 2024, the committed mortgage repurchase facility was amended to reduce its capacity to $1.6 billion and extend its maturity date to February 13, 2025. The capacity of the facility can be increased to $2.0 billion subject to the availability of additional commitments. At March 31, 2024, DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $1.4 billion under the committed mortgage repurchase facility at a 7.0% annual interest rate.

At March 31, 2024, the uncommitted mortgage repurchase facility had a borrowing capacity of $500 million, of which DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $493.7 million at a 6.5% annual interest rate.

At March 31, 2024, $2.17 billion of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $2.12 billion were pledged under the committed mortgage repurchase facility, and $540.4 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $511.0 million were pledged under the uncommitted mortgage repurchase facility.

These mortgage repurchase facilities are not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the debt of the Company’s homebuilding, rental or Forestar operations.

NOTE E – CAPITALIZED INTEREST

The Company capitalizes interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. During periods in which the Company’s active inventory is lower than its debt level, a portion of the interest incurred is reflected as interest expense in the period incurred. During the first six months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, the Company’s active inventory exceeded its debt level, and all interest incurred was capitalized to inventory.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest costs incurred, capitalized and expensed during the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

NOTE F – MORTGAGE LOANS

Mortgage loans held for sale consist primarily of single-family residential loans collateralized by the underlying property. The Company typically sells the servicing rights for the majority of loans when the loans are sold. Servicing rights retained are typically sold within six months of loan origination. At March 31, 2024, mortgage loans held for sale of $2.7 billion had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $2.7 billion. At September 30, 2023, mortgage loans held for sale of $2.5 billion had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $2.6 billion. Mortgage loans held for sale at both dates were primarily composed of mortgage loans measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs.

During the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, mortgage loans originated totaled $11.3 billion and $9.6 billion, respectively, and mortgage loans sold totaled $11.1 billion and $9.9 billion, respectively. The Company had gains on sales of loans and servicing rights of $152.7 million and $281.5 million during the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to $154.5 million and $233.8 million in the prior year periods. Net gains on sales of loans and servicing rights are included in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. During the six months ended March 31, 2024, approximately 71% of the Company’s mortgage loans were sold directly to the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) or into securities backed by the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), and 28% were sold to one other major financial entity.

The Company also uses hedging instruments as part of a program to offer below market interest rate financing to its homebuyers. At March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company had mortgage-backed securities (MBS) totaling $620.5 million and $1.1 billion, respectively, that did not yet have interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) or closed loans created or assigned. The Company recorded a liability of $0.1 million at March 31, 2024 and an asset of $15.7 million at September 30, 2023 for the fair value of such MBS position, which is measured using Level 2 inputs.

The Company is party to IRLCs, which are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. At March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the notional amount of IRLCs, which are accounted for as derivative instruments recorded at fair value using Level 3 inputs, totaled $3.0 billion and $2.7 billion, respectively.

NOTE G – INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income tax expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 was $344.8 million and $636.6 million, respectively, compared to $295.7 million and $594.6 million in the prior year periods. The effective tax rate was 22.6% and 22.9% for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to 23.7% in both prior year periods. The effective tax rates for all periods include an expense for state income taxes and tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and federal energy efficient homes tax credits.

The Company’s deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $181.2 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $202.0 million at September 30, 2023. The Company had a valuation allowance of $14.7 million and $14.8 million at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, related to deferred tax assets for state net operating loss (NOL) and tax credit carryforwards that are expected to expire before being realized. The Company will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to the remaining state NOL and tax credit carryforwards. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact the Company’s effective tax rate.

NOTE J – EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s Stock Incentive Plan provides for the granting of stock options and restricted stock units to executive officers, other key employees and non-management directors. Restricted stock unit (RSU) awards may be based on performance (performance-based) or on service over a requisite time period (time-based). RSU equity awards represent the contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per RSU if the vesting conditions and/or performance criteria are satisfied. The RSUs have no dividend or voting rights until vested.

In October 2023, the Company granted 277,779 performance-based RSUs to its executive officers. This grant was subsequently modified in December 2023 to change the performance criteria to total shareholder return, return on assets and operating margin. The number of units that ultimately vest depends on the Company’s relative position as compared to its peers in achieving each of the performance criteria and can range from 0% to 200% of the number of units granted. These awards vest at the end of a three-year performance period ending September 30, 2026. The grant date fair value of these equity awards was $146.72 per unit. Compensation expense related to this grant was $6.8 million in the six months ended March 31, 2024 based on an estimate of the Company’s performance against its peer group, the elapsed portion of the performance period and the grant date fair value of the award.

During the six months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted approximately 660,000 time-based RSUs to approximately 1,460 recipients, including executive officers, other key employees and non-management directors. The weighted average grant date fair value of these equity awards was $147.58 per unit, and they vest annually in equal installments over periods of three to five years. Compensation expense related to these grants was $3.5 million and $17.4 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively. Compensation expense in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 included $2.6 million and $16.4 million, respectively, of expense recognized for employees that were retirement eligible on the date of grant.

Total stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s performance-based and time-based RSUs was $22.1 million and $59.4 million during the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to $26.0 million and $47.1 million during the three and six months ended March 31, 2023.

NOTE K – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Warranty Claims

The Company provides its homebuyers with a ten-year limited warranty for major defects in structural elements such as framing components and foundation systems, a two-year limited warranty on major mechanical systems and a one-year limited warranty on other construction components. The Company’s warranty liability is based upon historical warranty cost experience in each market in which it operates.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability during the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Six Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023		2024		2023

Legal Claims and Insurance

The Company is named as a defendant in various claims, complaints and other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. At any point in time, the Company is managing several hundred individual claims related to construction defect matters, personal injury claims, employment matters, land development issues, contract disputes and other matters. The Company has established reserves for these contingencies based on the estimated costs of pending claims and the estimated costs of anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes. The estimated liabilities for these contingencies were $849.3 million and $858.9 million at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Approximately 97% of these reserves related to construction defect matters at both March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023. Expenses related to the Company’s legal contingencies were $63.6 million and $53.3 million in the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Changes in the Company’s legal claims reserves during the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

March 31, 2024

The Company estimates and records receivables under its applicable insurance policies related to its estimated contingencies for known claims and anticipated future construction defect claims on previously closed homes and other legal claims and lawsuits incurred in the ordinary course of business when recovery is probable. However, because the self-insured retentions under these policies are significant, and the limits of the policies are finite, the Company anticipates it may be in large part self-insured. Since June 1, 2021, except for contractual risk transfer, the Company is almost exclusively self-insured for construction defect exposures. The Company’s estimated insurance receivables from estimated losses for pending legal claims and anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes totaled $134.8 million, $165.8 million and $139.0 million at March 31, 2024, September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively, and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company also contractually requires major subcontractors in most markets to have general liability insurance, which includes construction defect coverage.

The estimation of losses related to these reserves and the related estimates of recoveries from insurance policies are subject to a high degree of variability due to uncertainties such as trends in construction defect claims relative to the Company’s markets and the types of products built, claim frequency, claim settlement costs and patterns, insurance industry practices and legal interpretations, among others. Due to the high degree of judgment required in establishing reserves for these contingencies, actual future costs and recoveries from insurance could differ significantly from current estimated amounts, and it is not possible for the Company to make a reasonable estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of its reserves.

Land and Lot Purchase Contracts

The Company enters into land and lot purchase contracts to acquire land or lots for the construction of homes. Under these contracts, the Company will fund a stated deposit in consideration for the right, but not the obligation, to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. Under the terms of many of the purchase contracts, the deposits are not refundable in the event the Company elects to terminate the contract. Land purchase contract deposits and capitalized pre-acquisition costs are expensed to inventory and land option charges when the Company believes it is probable that it will not acquire the property under contract and will not be able to recover these costs through other means.

At March 31, 2024, the Company had total deposits of $1.9 billion, consisting of cash deposits of $1.8 billion and promissory notes and surety bonds of $141.8 million, related to contracts to purchase land and lots with a total remaining purchase price of approximately $23.1 billion. Of these amounts, $158.2 million of the deposits related to contracts with Forestar to purchase land and lots with a remaining purchase price of $1.5 billion. A limited number of the homebuilding land and lot purchase contracts at March 31, 2024, representing $268.3 million of remaining purchase price, were subject to specific performance provisions that may require the Company to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their respective contractual obligations. Of the $268.3 million remaining purchase price subject to specific performance provisions, $243.9 million related to contracts between the homebuilding segment and Forestar.

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, Forestar reimbursed the homebuilding segment $5.4 million and $18.7 million, respectively, for previously paid earnest money and $6.1 million and $10.7 million, respectively, for pre-acquisition and other due diligence costs related to land purchase contracts whereby the homebuilding segment assigned its rights under contract to Forestar. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, Forestar reimbursed the homebuilding segment $5.7 million and $10.4 million, respectively, for such pre-acquisition and due diligence costs.

Other Commitments

At March 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding surety bonds of $3.2 billion and letters of credit of $241.7 million to secure performance under various contracts. Of the total letters of credit, $213.7 million were issued under the homebuilding revolving credit facility and $28.0 million were issued under Forestar’s revolving credit facility.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this quarterly report and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis constitutes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section following this discussion.

BUSINESS

D.R. Horton, Inc. is the largest homebuilding company in the United States as measured by number of homes closed. We construct and sell homes through our operating divisions in 119 markets across 33 states. Our common stock is included in the S&P 500 Index and listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “DHI.” Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “D.R. Horton,” the “Company,” “we” and “our” used herein refer to D.R. Horton, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its predecessors and subsidiaries.

Our business operations consist of homebuilding, rental, a majority-owned residential lot development company, financial services and other activities. Our homebuilding operations are our core business and primarily include the construction and sale of single-family homes with sales prices generally ranging from $200,000 to more than $1,000,000, with an average closing price of $375,800 during the six months ended March 31, 2024. Approximately 88% of our home sales revenue in the six months ended March 31, 2024 was generated from the sale of single-family detached homes, with the remainder from the sale of attached homes, such as townhomes, duplexes and triplexes.

We have closed more than one million homes during our 45-year history, and we have been the largest volume homebuilder in the United States every year since 2002. Our product offerings include a broad range of homes for entry-level, move-up, active adult and luxury buyers.

At March 31, 2024, we owned 62% of the outstanding shares of Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar), a publicly traded residential lot development company listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “FOR.” Forestar operates across many of our homebuilding operating markets and is a key part of our homebuilding strategy to maintain relationships with land developers and to control a large portion of our land and lot position through land purchase contracts.

Our financial services operations provide mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of our homebuilding markets. DHI Mortgage, our wholly-owned subsidiary, provides mortgage financing services primarily to our homebuyers and sells substantially all of the mortgages it originates and the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers after origination. Our wholly-owned subsidiary title companies serve as title insurance agents by providing title insurance policies, examination, underwriting and closing services primarily to our homebuilding customers.

In addition to our homebuilding, rental, Forestar and financial services operations, we engage in other business activities through our subsidiaries. We conduct insurance-related operations, own water rights and other water-related assets and own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements. The results of these operations are immaterial for separate reporting and therefore are grouped together and presented as other.

OVERVIEW

During the six months ended March 31, 2024, our number of homes closed increased 13%, and our home sales revenues increased 11% compared to the prior year period. Our consolidated revenues increased 11% to $16.8 billion in the six months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $15.2 billion in the prior year period. Our pre-tax income was $2.8 billion in the six months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $2.5 billion in the prior year period, and our pre-tax operating margin was 16.5% in both periods. Net income was $2.1 billion in the six months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $1.9 billion in the prior year period, and our diluted earnings per share were $6.34 compared to $5.50.

In the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2024, our return on equity (ROE) was 22.2% compared to 27.2% in the prior year period, and our homebuilding return on inventory (ROI) was 29.9% compared to 35.1%. ROE is calculated as net income attributable to D.R. Horton for the trailing twelve months divided by average stockholders’ equity, where average stockholders’ equity is the sum of ending stockholders’ equity balances of the trailing five quarters divided by five. Homebuilding ROI is calculated as homebuilding pre-tax income for the trailing twelve months divided by average inventory, where average inventory is the sum of ending homebuilding inventory balances for the trailing five quarters divided by five.

Although inflation and mortgage interest rates remain elevated, demand for new homes has remained solid. Our net sales orders increased 46% from the first quarter and increased 14% from the prior year quarter. We are continuing to use incentives and pricing adjustments to adapt to current market conditions. The disruptions in the supply chain for certain building materials and tightness in the labor market we experienced in recent years have largely subsided, and our average construction cycle time has returned to historical norms. Although higher interest rates and economic fluctuations may persist for some time, the supply of both new and existing homes at affordable price points remains limited, and demographics supporting housing demand remain favorable. We believe we are well-positioned to meet changing market conditions with our affordable product offerings and lot supply and will manage our home pricing, sales incentives and number of homes in inventory based on the level of homebuyer demand.

We remain focused on our relationships with land developers across the country in order to maximize our returns and capital efficiency. Within our homebuilding land and lot portfolio, our lots controlled through purchase contracts represent 77% of the lots owned and controlled at March 31, 2024 compared to 75% at both September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023. We are prioritizing the purchase of finished lots from Forestar and other land developers, when possible, to limit the number of lots we internally develop. During the six months ended March 31, 2024, 62% of the homes we closed were on lots developed by Forestar or third parties.

We believe our strong balance sheet and liquidity position provide us with the flexibility to operate effectively through changing economic conditions. We plan to continue to generate strong cash flows from our homebuilding operations and manage our product offerings, incentives, home pricing, sales pace and inventory levels to optimize the return on our inventory investments in each of our communities based on local housing market conditions.

STRATEGY

Our operating strategy focuses on consistently enhancing long-term value to our shareholders by leveraging our financial and competitive position to maximize the returns on our inventory investments and generate strong profitability and cash flows, while managing risk and maintaining financial flexibility to navigate changing economic conditions. Our strategy includes the following initiatives:

•Developing and retaining highly experienced and productive teams of personnel throughout our company that are aligned and focused on continuous improvement in our operational execution and financial performance.

•Maintaining a significant cash balance and strong overall liquidity position while controlling our level of debt.

•Allocating and actively managing our inventory investments across our operating markets to diversify our geographic risk.

•Offering new home communities that appeal to a broad range of entry-level, move-up, active adult and luxury homebuyers based on consumer demand in each market.

•Modifying product offerings, sales pace, home prices and incentives as necessary in each of our markets to meet consumer demand and maintain affordability.

•Delivering high quality homes and a positive experience to our customers both during and after the sale.

•Managing our inventory of homes under construction relative to demand in each of our markets, including starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand and actively controlling the number of unsold, completed homes in inventory.

•Investing in lots, land and land development in desirable markets, while controlling the level of land and lots we own in each market relative to the local new home demand.

•Controlling a significant portion of our land and finished lot position through purchase contracts and prioritizing the purchase of finished lots from Forestar and other land developers, when possible, to limit the number of lots we internally develop.

•Controlling the cost of labor and goods provided by vendors and subcontractors.

•Improving the efficiency of our land development, construction, sales and other key operational activities.

•Controlling our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense infrastructure to match production levels.

•Ensuring that our financial services business provides high quality mortgage and title services to homebuyers efficiently and effectively.

•Investing in the construction and leasing of single-family and multi-family rental properties to meet rental demand in high growth suburban markets and selling these properties profitably.

•Opportunistically evaluating potential acquisitions to enhance our operating platform.

We believe our operating strategy, which has produced positive results in recent years, will allow us to successfully operate through changing economic conditions and maintain our strong financial performance and competitive position. However, we cannot provide any assurances that the initiatives listed above will continue to be successful, and we may need to adjust parts of our strategy to meet future market conditions.

Net Sales Orders

The number of net sales orders increased 14% and 22% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, with increases in all regions. The value of net sales orders increased 17% to $10.1 billion (26,456 homes) and 24% to $16.9 billion (44,525 homes) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to $8.6 billion (23,142 homes) and $13.6 billion (36,524 homes) in the prior year periods. The average selling price of net sales orders during the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 was $380,400 and $378,500, respectively, up 2% from the prior year periods.

The markets contributing most to the increases in sales order volume in both periods were: the Salt Lake City and Portland markets in the Northwest; the California and Phoenix markets in the Southwest; the Dallas and San Antonio markets in the South Central; the Alabama and Tampa markets in the Southeast; the North Carolina markets in the East; and the Indiana and Washington, D.C. markets in the North.

Despite continued inflationary pressures and elevated mortgage interest rates, demand for new homes remained solid during the second quarter, as our net sales orders increased 46% from the first quarter and 14% from the prior year quarter. We are continuing to use incentives and pricing adjustments to adapt to current market conditions. Although higher interest rates and economic fluctuations may persist for some time, the supply of both new and existing homes at affordable price points remains limited, and demographics supporting housing demand remain favorable. We believe we are well-positioned to meet changing market conditions with our affordable product offerings and lot supply.

Home Sales Gross Profit

Gross profit from home sales increased to $2.0 billion in the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $1.6 billion in the prior year period and increased 160 basis points to 23.2% as a percentage of home sales revenues. The percentage increase resulted from an increase of 160 basis points due to the average cost of our homes closed decreasing by more than the decrease in the average selling price of those homes, 10 basis points due to a decrease in the amortization of capitalized interest and 10 basis points due to a decrease in warranty and construction defect costs, partially offset by 20 basis points due to an increase in the amount of purchase accounting adjustments related to prior year acquisitions.

Gross profit from home sales increased to $3.6 billion in the six months ended March 31, 2024 from $3.2 billion in the prior year period and increased 40 basis points to 23.1% as a percentage of home sales revenues. The percentage increase resulted from an increase of 50 basis points due to the average cost of our homes closed decreasing by more than the decrease in the average selling price of those homes and 10 basis points due to a decrease in the amortization of capitalized interest, partially offset by a decrease of 10 basis points due to an increase in warranty and construction defect costs and 10 basis points due to an increase in the amount of purchase accounting adjustments related to prior year acquisitions.

We remain focused on managing the pricing, incentives and sales pace in each of our communities to optimize the returns on our inventory investments and adjust to local market conditions and new home demand. To adjust to changes in market conditions during fiscal 2023 and the first half of fiscal 2024, we have used a higher level of incentives and reduced home prices and sizes of our home offerings where necessary to provide better affordability to homebuyers. Based on current market conditions, we expect our incentive levels to remain elevated throughout fiscal 2024.

Land/Lot Sales and Other Revenues

Land/lot sales and other revenues from our homebuilding operations were $6.9 million and $27.2 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, and $19.9 million and $54.7 million in the prior year periods.

We continually evaluate our land and lot supply, and fluctuations in revenues and profitability from land sales occur based on how we manage our inventory levels in various markets. We generally purchase land and lots with the intent to build and sell homes on them. However, some of the land that we purchase includes commercially zoned parcels that we may sell to commercial developers. We may also sell residential lots or land parcels to manage our supply or for other strategic reasons. As of March 31, 2024, our homebuilding operations had $8.8 million of land held for sale that we expect to sell in the next twelve months.

Inventory and Land Option Charges

At the end of each quarter, we review the performance and outlook for all of our communities and land inventories for indicators of potential impairment and perform detailed impairment evaluations and analyses when necessary. As a result of this review, there were $5.6 million of impairment charges recorded in our homebuilding segment during the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $0.9 million and $5.7 million, respectively, in the prior year periods.

Table of Contents

As we manage our inventory investments across our operating markets to optimize returns and cash flows, we may modify our pricing and incentives, construction and development plans or land sale strategies in individual active communities and land held for development, which could result in the affected communities being evaluated for potential impairment. If the housing market or economic conditions are adversely affected for a prolonged period, we may be required to evaluate additional communities for potential impairment. These evaluations could result in impairment charges, which could be significant.

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs related to our homebuilding segment’s land purchase contracts that we have terminated or expect to terminate were $7.5 million and $13.0 million, respectively, compared to $13.3 million and $32.7 million in the prior year periods.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expense

SG&A expense from homebuilding activities increased 13% to $614.1 million and 14% to $1.2 billion in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, from $545.6 million and $1.1 billion in the prior year periods. SG&A expense as a percentage of homebuilding revenues was 7.2% and 7.7% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to 7.3% and 7.5% in the prior year periods.

Employee compensation and related costs were $512.2 million and $999.4 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to $452.9 million and $878.2 million in the prior year periods. These costs increased 13% and 14% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, from the prior year periods. Employee compensation and related costs represented 83% and 82% of SG&A costs in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, consistent with the percentages in the prior year periods. Our homebuilding operations employed 9,717 and 8,831 people at March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

We attempt to control our homebuilding SG&A costs while ensuring that our infrastructure adequately supports our operations; however, we cannot make assurances that we will be able to maintain or improve upon the current SG&A expense as a percentage of revenues.

Interest Incurred

We capitalize interest costs incurred to inventory during active development and construction (active inventory). Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. Interest incurred by our homebuilding operations decreased 41% to $11.3 million and 43% to $22.7 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to $19.0 million and $39.9 million in the prior year periods, primarily due to decreases of 19% and 21% in our average homebuilding debt. Interest charged to cost of sales was 0.4% of homebuilding cost of sales (excluding inventory and land option charges) in all periods.

Other Income

Other income, net of other expenses, included in our homebuilding operations increased to $21.0 million and $50.4 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, from $14.5 million and $27.7 million in the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in interest income. In addition to interest income, other income consists of various other types of ancillary income, gains, expenses and losses not directly associated with sales of homes, land and lots. The activities that result in this ancillary income are not significant, either individually or in the aggregate.

HOMEBUILDING INVENTORIES, LAND AND LOT POSITION AND HOMES IN INVENTORY

We routinely enter into contracts to purchase land or developed residential lots at predetermined prices on a defined schedule commensurate with planned development or anticipated new home demand. At the time of purchase, the undeveloped land is generally vested with the rights to begin development or construction work, and we plan and coordinate the development of our land into residential lots for use in our homebuilding business. We manage our inventory of owned land and lots and homes under construction relative to demand in each of our markets, including starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand and actively controlling the number of unsold, completed homes in inventory.

Our homebuilding segment’s inventories at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023 are summarized as follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - RENTAL

Our rental segment consists of single-family and multi-family rental operations. The single-family rental operations primarily construct and lease single-family homes within a community and then market each community for a bulk sale of rental homes. The multi-family rental operations develop, construct, lease and sell residential rental properties, with a primary focus on constructing garden style apartment communities in high growth suburban markets. Single-family and multi-family rental property sales are recognized as revenues, and rental income is recognized as other income. The following tables provide further information regarding our rental operations as of and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Mortgage Loan Activity

DHI Mortgage’s primary focus is to originate loans for our homebuilding operations, and those loan originations account for virtually all of its total loan volume. In the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, the volume of first-lien loans originated or brokered by DHI Mortgage for our homebuyers increased 22% and 18%, respectively, primarily due to increases of 15% and 13%, respectively, in the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations, as well as an increase in the percentage of homes closed for which DHI Mortgage handled our homebuyers’ financing. The percentage of homes closed for which DHI Mortgage handled our homebuyers’ financing was 80% and 79% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, up from 76% in both prior year periods.

The number of loans sold increased 15% and 13% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. Virtually all of the mortgage loans held for sale on March 31, 2024 were eligible for sale to the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) or the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae). During the six months ended March 31, 2024, approximately 71% of our mortgage loans were sold directly to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or into securities backed by Ginnie Mae, and 28% were sold to one other major financial entity. Changes in market conditions could result in a greater concentration of our mortgage sales in future periods to fewer financial entities and directly to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae, and we may need to make other adjustments to our mortgage operations.

Financial Services Revenues and Expenses

Total loan origination volume increased 21% and 18% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, and revenues from our mortgage operations increased 2% to $175.1 million and 20% to $323.1 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, from $172.5 million and $268.3 million in the prior year periods. In the three month period, the revenue increase was less than the volume increase due to a more competitive interest rate market. Revenues from our title operations increased 15% to $50.5 million and 12% to $95.1 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, from $43.9 million and $85.1 million in the prior year periods.

General and administrative (G&A) expense related to our financial services operations increased 17% to $171.2 million and 15% to $322.7 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, from $146.9 million and $281.0 million in the prior year periods. The increases were primarily due to the increases in loan origination volume and related title closing services. As a percentage of financial services revenues, G&A expense was 75.9% and 77.2% in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to 67.9% and 79.5% in the prior year periods. Fluctuations in financial services G&A expense as a percentage of revenues can occur because some components of revenue fluctuate differently than loan volumes, and some expenses are not directly related to mortgage loan volume or to changes in the amount of revenue earned. Our financial services operations employed 3,016 and 2,849 people at March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Other income, net of other expense, included in our financial services operations consists primarily of the interest income of our mortgage subsidiary. Other income increased 47% to $23.6 million and 54% to $48.5 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, from $16.1 million and $31.4 million in the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in interest income on our loan origination volume.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - OTHER BUSINESSES

In addition to our homebuilding, rental, Forestar and financial services operations, we engage in other business activities through our subsidiaries. We conduct insurance-related operations, own water rights and other water-related assets and own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements. The pre-tax income of all of our subsidiaries engaged in other business activities was $9.2 million and $19.1 million in the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to $12.5 million and $21.9 million in the prior year periods.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSOLIDATED

Income before Income Taxes

Pre-tax income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 was $1.5 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively, compared to $1.2 billion and $2.5 billion in the prior year periods. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the pre-tax income of our homebuilding operations as a result of higher revenues from an increase in home closings.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 was $344.8 million and $636.6 million, respectively, compared to $295.7 million and $594.6 million in the prior year periods. Our effective tax rate was 22.6% and 22.9% for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, respectively, compared to 23.7% in both prior year periods. The effective tax rates for all periods include an expense for state income taxes and tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and federal energy efficient homes tax credits.

Our deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $181.2 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $202.0 million at September 30, 2023. We had a valuation allowance of $14.7 million and $14.8 million at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, related to deferred tax assets for state net operating loss (NOL) and tax credit carryforwards that are expected to expire before being realized. We will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to our remaining state NOL and tax credit carryforwards. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact our effective tax rate.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

We have historically funded our operations with cash flows from operating activities, borrowings under bank credit facilities and the issuance of new debt securities. Our current levels of cash, borrowing capacity and balance sheet leverage provide us with the operational flexibility to adjust to changes in economic and market conditions.

We have continued to make significant investments in our homebuilding and rental inventories to expand our operations. We are also returning capital to our shareholders through dividend payments and repurchases of our common stock. We are maintaining significant homebuilding cash balances and liquidity to support the increased scale and level of activity in our business and to provide flexibility to adjust to changing conditions and opportunities.

At March 31, 2024, we had outstanding notes payable with varying maturities totaling an aggregate principal amount of $6.0 billion. $2.6 billion is payable within 12 months, including $1.9 billion which is outstanding under our mortgage repurchase facilities. At March 31, 2024, our ratio of debt to total capital (notes payable divided by stockholders’ equity plus notes payable) was 20.0% compared to 18.3% at September 30, 2023 and 22.4% at March 31, 2023. Our net debt to total capital (notes payable net of cash divided by stockholders’ equity plus notes payable net of cash) was 10.8% at March 31, 2024 compared to 5.1% at September 30, 2023 and 12.3% at March 31, 2023. Over the long term, we intend to maintain our ratio of debt to total capital below 25%, and we expect it to remain at or below 20% throughout fiscal 2024.

At March 31, 2024, we had outstanding letters of credit of $241.7 million and surety bonds of $3.2 billion issued by third parties to secure performance under various contracts. We expect that our performance obligations secured by these letters of credit and bonds will generally be completed in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with the applicable contractual terms. When we complete our performance obligations, the related letters of credit and bonds are generally released shortly thereafter, leaving us with no continuing obligations. We have no material third-party guarantees.

We regularly assess our projected capital requirements to fund growth in our business, repay debt obligations, pay dividends, repurchase our common stock and maintain sufficient cash and liquidity levels to support our other operational needs, and we regularly evaluate our opportunities to raise additional capital. D.R. Horton has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in July 2021, registering debt and equity securities that may be issued from time to time in amounts to be determined. Forestar also has an effective shelf registration statement filed with the SEC in October 2021, registering $750 million of equity securities, of which $300 million was reserved for sales under its at-the-market equity offering (ATM) program that became effective in November 2021. At March 31, 2024, $728.1 million remained available for issuance under Forestar’s shelf registration statement, of which $278.1 million was reserved for sales under its ATM program. As market conditions permit, we may issue new debt or equity securities through the capital markets or obtain additional bank financing to fund our projected capital requirements or provide additional liquidity. We believe that our existing cash resources, revolving credit facilities, mortgage repurchase facilities and ability to access the capital markets or obtain additional bank financing will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our near-term working capital needs and debt obligations for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.

Capital Resources - Homebuilding

Cash and Cash Equivalents — At March 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents of our homebuilding segment totaled $2.2 billion.

Bank Credit Facility — We have a $2.19 billion senior unsecured homebuilding revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $3.0 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments.

Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The maturity date of the facility is October 28, 2027. At March 31, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding and $213.7 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility, resulting in available capacity of $1.98 billion.

Table of Contents

Our homebuilding revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on our operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable leverage ratio and a borrowing base restriction if our leverage ratio exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility imposes restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of our homebuilding revolving credit facility.

Capital Resources - Forestar

The achievement of Forestar’s long-term growth objectives will depend on its ability to obtain financing and generate sufficient cash flows from operations.

Capital Resources - Financial Services

Cash and Cash Equivalents — At March 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents of our financial services segment totaled $315.2 million.

Mortgage Repurchase Facilities — Our mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has two mortgage repurchase facilities, one of which is committed and the other of which is uncommitted, that provide financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to counterparties upon receipt of funds from the counterparties. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facilities.

At March 31, 2024, the uncommitted mortgage repurchase facility had a borrowing capacity of $500 million, of which DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $493.7 million at a 6.5% annual interest rate.

These mortgage repurchase facilities are not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the debt of our homebuilding, rental or Forestar operations.

In the past, DHI Mortgage has been able to renew or extend its committed mortgage repurchase facility at a sufficient capacity and on satisfactory terms prior to its maturity and obtain temporary additional commitments through amendments to the facility during periods of higher than normal volumes of mortgages held for sale. The liquidity of our financial services business depends upon its continued ability to renew and extend the committed mortgage repurchase facility or to obtain other additional financing in sufficient capacities.

Financing Cash Flow Activities

We expect the short-term financing needs of our operations will be funded with existing cash, cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities. Long-term financing needs for our operations may be funded with the issuance of senior unsecured debt securities or equity securities through the capital markets.

During the six months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $270.6 million, consisting primarily of cash used to repurchase shares of our common stock of $794.5 million and payment of cash dividends totaling $199.1 million.

During the six months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $791.3 million, consisting primarily of cash used to repurchase shares of our common stock of $419.8 million, repayment of $300 million principal amount of our 4.75% homebuilding senior notes, payment of cash dividends totaling $171.7 million and net payments on our mortgage repurchase facility of $63.4 million. These uses of cash were partially offset by net borrowings on our rental revolving credit facility of $225 million.

During each of the first two quarters of fiscal 2024, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per common share, the most recent of which was paid on February 13, 2024 to stockholders of record on February 6, 2024.

Cash dividends of $0.25 per common share were approved and paid in each quarter of fiscal 2023. The declaration of future cash dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our future earnings, cash flows, capital requirements, financial condition and general business conditions.

SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

As of March 31, 2024, D.R. Horton, Inc. had $2.1 billion principal amount of homebuilding senior notes outstanding due through October 2027 and no amounts outstanding on its homebuilding revolving credit facility.

All of the homebuilding senior notes and the homebuilding revolving credit facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by certain subsidiaries of D.R. Horton, Inc. (Guarantors or Guarantor Subsidiaries). Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries is 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by D.R. Horton, Inc. Our subsidiaries associated with the single-family and multi-family rental operations, Forestar lot development operations, financial services operations and certain other subsidiaries do not guarantee the homebuilding senior notes or the homebuilding revolving credit facility (collectively, Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries). The guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of each Guarantor and rank equal with all existing and future senior debt of such Guarantor and senior to all subordinated debt of such Guarantor. The guarantees are effectively subordinated to any secured debt of such Guarantor to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. The guarantees will be structurally subordinated to indebtedness and other liabilities of Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries of the Guarantors.

The guarantees by a Guarantor Subsidiary will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon: (1) the sale or other disposition of its common stock whereby it is no longer a subsidiary of ours; (2) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets (other than to us or another Guarantor); (3) its merger or consolidation with an entity other than us or another Guarantor; or (4) its ceasing to guarantee any of our publicly traded debt securities and ceasing to guarantee any of our obligations under our homebuilding revolving credit facility.

The enforceability of the obligations of the Guarantor Subsidiaries under their guarantees may be subject to review under applicable federal or state laws relating to fraudulent conveyance or transfer, voidable preference and similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. In certain circumstances, a court could void the guarantees, subordinate amounts owing under the guarantees or order other relief detrimental to the holders of our guaranteed obligations. The indentures governing our homebuilding senior notes contain a “savings clause,” which limits the liability of each Guarantor on its guarantee to the maximum amount that such Guarantor can incur without risk that its guarantee will be subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer. This provision may not be effective to protect such guarantees from fraudulent transfer challenges or, if it does, it may reduce such Guarantor’s obligation such that the remaining amount due and collectible under the guarantees would not suffice, if necessary, to pay the notes in full when due.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

As disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, inventories and cost of sales, warranty and legal claims and insurance. Since September 30, 2023, there have been no significant changes to those critical accounting policies.

As disclosed in our critical accounting policies in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, our reserves for construction defect claims include the estimated costs of both known claims and anticipated future claims. At March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had reserves for approximately 595 and 600 pending construction defect claims, respectively, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the six months ended March 31, 2024, we were notified of approximately 185 new construction defect claims and resolved 190 construction defect claims for a total cost of $44.8 million. At March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022, we had reserves for approximately 600 and 560 pending construction defect claims, respectively, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the six months ended March 31, 2023, we were notified of approximately 150 new construction defect claims and resolved 110 construction defect claims for a total cost of $16.6 million.

SEASONALITY

Although significant changes in market conditions have impacted our seasonal patterns in the past and could do so again in the future, we generally close more homes and generate greater revenues and pre-tax income in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. The seasonal nature of our business can also cause significant variations in the working capital requirements for our homebuilding, rental, lot development and financial services operations. As a result of seasonal activity, our quarterly results of operations and financial position at the end of a particular fiscal quarter are not necessarily representative of the balance of our fiscal year.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. We monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates and utilize both fixed and variable rate debt. For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value of the debt instrument, but may affect our future earnings and cash flows. Except in very limited circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value would not have a significant impact on our cash flows related to our fixed-rate debt until such time as we are required to refinance, repurchase or repay such debt.

We are exposed to interest rate risk associated with our mortgage loan origination services. We manage interest rate risk through the use of forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), which are referred to as “hedging instruments” in the following discussion. We do not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and who meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. Typically, the IRLCs have a duration of less than six months. Some IRLCs are committed immediately to a specific purchaser through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments, while other IRLCs are funded prior to being committed to third-party purchasers. The hedging instruments related to IRLCs are classified and accounted for as derivative instruments in an economic hedge, with gains and losses recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Hedging instruments related to funded, uncommitted loans are accounted for at fair value, with changes recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations, along with changes in the fair value of the funded, uncommitted loans. The fair value change related to the hedging instruments generally offsets the fair value change in the uncommitted loans. The net fair value change, which for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was not significant, is recognized in current earnings. At March 31, 2024, hedging instruments used to mitigate interest rate risk related to uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale and uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of $5.1 billion. Uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of approximately $3.0 billion and uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale totaled a notional amount of approximately $2.4 billion at March 31, 2024.

We also use hedging instruments as part of a program to offer below market interest rate financing to our homebuyers. At March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had MBS totaling $620.5 million and $1.1 billion, respectively, that did not yet have IRLCs or closed loans created or assigned and recorded a liability of $0.1 million and an asset of $15.7 million, respectively, for the fair value of such MBS position.

The following table sets forth principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, effective weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of March 31, 2024. Because the mortgage repurchase facilities are effectively secured by certain mortgage loans held for sale that are typically sold within 60 days, the outstanding balances related to those facilities are included in the most current period presented. The interest rate for our variable rate debt represents the weighted average interest rate in effect at March 31, 2024.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024 were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files, furnishes, submits or otherwise provides the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, in such a manner as to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in lawsuits and other contingencies in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the liabilities arising from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, to the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds our estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matter, we could incur additional charges that could be significant.

With respect to administrative or judicial proceedings involving the environment, we have determined that we will disclose any such proceeding if we reasonably believe such proceeding will result in monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, at or in excess of $1 million.

In fiscal 2014, we received Notices of Violation from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Alabama Department of Environmental Management and the State of South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control related to stormwater compliance at certain of our sites in the southeastern United States within EPA Region 4. Since 2014, we have enhanced our practices and procedures related to stormwater compliance, and this matter has been resolved with each of these governmental entities through a Consent Decree issued on April 8, 2024, subject to final court approval after a public comment period. In addition to a stipulated monetary penalty, we agreed to complete a supplemental environmental project intended to provide a tangible environmental benefit. Collectively, the cost of the penalty and the project is not expected to exceed $1 million. The Consent Decree also provides for ongoing reporting obligations and stipulated penalties for any future noncompliance with the Consent Decree in EPA Region 4. We do not believe it is reasonably possible that any future issues related to this matter would result in a loss that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

We may repurchase shares of our common stock from time to time pursuant to our $1.5 billion common stock repurchase authorization, which was approved by our Board of Directors effective October 31, 2023, and which replaced our prior $1.0 billion common stock repurchase authorization. The authorization has no expiration date. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased 2.7 million shares of our common stock at a total cost, including commissions and excise taxes, of $402.2 million. At March 31, 2024, there was $901.1 million remaining on the repurchase authorization. The following table sets forth additional information concerning our common stock repurchases during the quarter.


Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Average Price Paid per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs	Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that may yet be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs (In millions)
January 2024	1,622,315	$	145.89	1,622,315	$	1,066.6
February 2024	977,639	145.88		977,639	924.0
March 2024	149,856	152.28		149,856	901.1
Total	2,749,810	$	146.23	2,749,810	$	901.1

The share repurchases may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans or open market purchases, each in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Shares repurchased in January 2024 included 500,000 shares purchased pursuant to a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act.
