1. Basis of presentation

PulteGroup, Inc. is one of the largest homebuilders in the United States ("U.S."), and our common shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “PHM”. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "PulteGroup", the "Company", "we", "us", and "our" used herein refer to PulteGroup, Inc. and its subsidiaries. While our subsidiaries engage primarily in the homebuilding business, we also engage in mortgage banking operations, conducted through Pulte Mortgage LLC (“Pulte Mortgage”), and title and insurance brokerage operations.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated 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. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Subsequent events

We evaluated subsequent events up until the time the financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

Business acquisition

On January 24, 2020, we acquired the operations of Innovative Construction Group ("ICG"), an offsite construction framing company located in Jacksonville, Florida, for $104.0 million, of which $83.3 million and $10.4 million was paid in January 2020 and 2021, respectively, while an additional payment of $10.4 million will be settled in 2022. The acquired net assets were recorded at their estimated fair values, including intangible assets of $27.8 million associated with customer relationships and $1.8 million associated with the ICG tradename, which are being amortized over seven- and five-year useful lives, respectively, and $48.7 million of goodwill. The acquisition of these assets was not material to our results of operations or financial condition.

Goodwill impairment

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other", management evaluates the recoverability of goodwill by comparing the carrying value of the Company’s reporting units to their fair value. Fair value is determined using accepted valuation methods, including the use of discounted cash flows supplemented by market-based assessments of fair value. As a result of the significant decline in equity market valuations that occurred during the period between our acquisition of ICG in January 2020 and March 31, 2020, we determined that an event-driven goodwill impairment test was appropriate for the ICG goodwill, which resulted in an impairment totaling $20.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. This impairment was not the result of any unique factors specific to ICG's operations but, rather, reflected the broad-based declines in the market capitalizations of publicly-traded construction companies in the period of time between the acquisition and the March 31, 2020 valuation date.

Restructuring costs

We recorded severance expense of $10.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020 as we took actions to reduce overhead expenses in response to lower demand in March through May of 2020 resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Revenue recognition

Home sale revenues - Home sale revenues and related profit are generally recognized when title to and possession of the home are transferred to the buyer, and our performance obligation to deliver the agreed-upon home is generally satisfied at the home closing date. Home sale contract assets consist of cash from home closings held in escrow for our benefit, typically for less than five days, which are considered deposits in-transit and classified as cash. Contract liabilities include customer deposits related to sold but undelivered homes, which totaled $823.5 million$1.0 billion and $449.5$844.8 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. Substantially all of our home sales are scheduled to close and be recorded to revenue within one year from the date of receiving a customer deposit. See Note 8 for information on warranties and related obligations.

Land sale and other revenues - We periodically elect to sell parcels of land to third parties in the event such assets no longer fit into our strategic operating plans or are zoned for commercial or other development. Land sales are generally outright sales of specified land parcels with cash consideration due on the closing date, which is generally when performance obligations are satisfied. Revenues related to our construction services operations are generally recognized as materials are delivered and installation services are provided.

Financial services revenues - Loan origination fees, commitment fees, and certain direct loan origination costs are recognized as incurred. Expected gains and losses from the sale of residential mortgage loans and their related servicing rights are included in the measurement of written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through Financial Services revenues at the time of commitment. Subsequent changes in the fair value of these loans are reflected in Financial Services revenues as they occur. Interest income is accrued from the date a mortgage loan is originated until the loan is sold. Mortgage servicing fees represent fees earned for servicing loans. Servicing fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and are credited to income when related mortgage payments are received.

Revenues associated with our title operations are recognized as closing services are rendered and title insurance policies are issued, both of which generally occur as each home is closed. Insurance brokerage commissions relate to commissions on homeowner and other insurance policies placed with third partythird-party carriers through various agency channels. Our performance obligations for policy renewal commissions are considered satisfied upon issuance of the initial policy, and related contract assets for estimated future renewal commissions are included in other assets and totaled $41.6$49.5 million and $38.5$44.3 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders (the “Numerator”) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for unvested shares (the “Denominator”) for the period. Computing diluted earnings per share is similar to computing basic earnings per share, except that the Denominator is increased to include the dilutive effects of unvested restricted share units and other potentially dilutive instruments.

In accordance with ASCAccounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 260, "Earnings Per Share", the two-class method determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to an earnings allocation formula that adjusts the Numerator for dividends or dividend equivalents and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and, therefore, are included in computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. OurCertain of our outstanding restricted share units and deferred shares are considered participating securities.

Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale

Substantially all of the loans originated by us are sold in the secondary mortgage market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. At SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, residential mortgage loans available-for-sale had an aggregate fair value of $601.4$553.8 million and $565.0$947.1 million, respectively, and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $586.4$553.9 million and $539.1$924.5 million, respectively. Net gains from the sale of mortgages were $58.4$45.1 million and $76.6$56.7 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively, and $192.6$97.5 million and $173.8$134.2 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively, and have been included in Financial Services revenues.

Derivative instruments and hedging activities

We are party to interest rate lock commitments ("IRLCs") with customers resulting from our mortgage origination operations. At SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we had aggregate IRLCs of $521.5 million$1.5 billion and $367.2$337.9 million, respectively, which were originated at interest rates prevailing at the date of commitment. Since we can terminate a loan commitment if the borrower does not comply with the terms of the contract, and some loan commitments may expire without being drawn upon, these commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate the creditworthiness of these transactions through our normal credit policies.

We hedge our exposure to interest rate market risk relating to residential mortgage loans available-for-sale and IRLCs using forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities, which are commitments to either purchase or sell a specified financial instrument at a specified future date for a specified price, and whole loan investor commitments, which are obligations of an investor to buy loans at a specified price within a specified time period. Forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities are

the predominant derivative 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 sold to an investor. At SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we had unexpired forward contracts of $843.0 million$1.7 billion and $686.4$903.0 million, respectively, and whole loan investor commitments of $235.5$316.2 million and $169.6$310.0 million, respectively. Changes in the fair value of IRLCs and other derivative financial instruments are recognized in Financial Services revenues, and the fair values are reflected in other assets or other liabilities, as applicable.

PULTEGROUP, INC.

(UNAUDITED)
There are no credit-risk-related contingent features within our derivative agreements, and counterparty risk is considered minimal. Gains and losses on IRLCs and residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are substantially offset by corresponding gains or losses on forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities and whole loan investor commitments. We are generally not exposed to variability in cash flows of derivative instruments for more than approximately 60 days. The fair values of derivative instruments and their locations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are summarized below ($000’s omitted):

Credit losses

We are exposed to credit losses primarily through our vendors and insurance carriers. We assess and monitor each counterparty’s ability to pay amounts owed by considering contractual terms and conditions, the counterparty’s financial condition, macroeconomic factors, and business strategy.

At SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we reported $194.5$199.9 million and $176.2$208.4 million, respectively, of assets in-scope under ASC 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" ("ASC 326"). These assets consist primarily of insurance receivables, contract assets related to insurance brokerage commissions, and vendor rebate receivables. Counterparties associated with these assets are generally highly rated. Allowances on the aforementioned in-scope assets were not material as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022.

New accounting pronouncements

OnIn March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”, as amended by ASU 2021-01 in January 1, 2021, we adopted Accounting Standards Updatewhich provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("ASU"LIBOR") No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifyingor by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The guidance was effective beginning March 12, 2020 and can be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the Accounting for Income Taxes" ("ASU 2019-12"), which is intended to simplify various aspectseffect that such new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions todisclosures, but do not expect that the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. Our adoption of ASU 2019-12 did notwill have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.statements or related disclosures.

On January 1, 2020, we adopted ASC 326, which changed the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments from an "incurred loss" approach to an "expected credit loss" methodology. We adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective transition method. ASC 326 requires entities to consider a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. Our adoption of ASC 326 resulted in a $0.7 million decrease to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment", which removed the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. Under the new standard, goodwill impairment is determined by evaluating the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. We adopted the standard for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2020, and the standard was followed in the previously mentioned assessment of the ICG goodwill.

Land option agreements

We enter into land option agreements in order to procure land for the construction of homes in the future. Pursuant to these land option agreements, we generally provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. Such contracts enable us to defer acquiring portions of properties owned by third parties or unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether and when to exercise our option, which reduces our financial risks associated with long-term land holdings. Option deposits and pre-acquisition costs (such as environmental testing, surveys, engineering, and entitlement costs) are capitalized if the costs are directly identifiable with the land under option, the costs would be capitalized if we owned the land, and acquisition of the property is probable. Such costs are reflected in other assets and are reclassified to inventory upon taking title to the land. We write off deposits and pre-acquisition costs when it becomes probable that we will not go forward with the project or recover the capitalized costs. Such decisions take into consideration changes in local market conditions, the timing of required land purchases, the availability and best use of necessary incremental capital, and other factors. We record any such write-offs of deposits and pre-acquisition costs within other expense, net. We recorded $4.5 million and $1.9 million of such charges during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $8.0 million and $3.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

If an entity holding the land under option is a variable interest entity ("VIE"), our deposit represents a variable interest in that entity. No VIEs required consolidation at either SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 or December 31, 20202021 because we determined that we were not the VIEs'any VIE's primary beneficiary. Our maximum exposure to loss related to these VIEs is generally limited to our deposits and pre-acquisition costs under the land option agreements. The following provides a summary of our interests in land option agreements as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 20202021 ($000’s omitted):

Our evaluations for land impairments, NRVnet realizable value adjustments, and write-offs of deposits and pre-acquisition costs are based on our best estimates of the future cash flows of our communities. Due to uncertainties in the estimation process, the significant volatility in demand for new housing, the long life cycles of certain of our communities, and potential changes in our strategy related to certain communities, actual results could differ significantly from such estimates.

Income tax expense for the threecredits, which expired at December 31, 2021, and nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes benefits of $53.2 million and $58.0 million, respectively, associated with the extension of federal energy efficient homes tax credits, including to homes closed in prior open tax years. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 also reflects a reduction in valuation allowances relating to projected utilization of certain state net operating loss carryforwards.

At SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, we had net deferred tax assetsliabilities of $19.9$47.3 million and $32.7$26.5 million, respectively. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between estimated and actual results could result in changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets that could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. Changes in existing tax laws could also affect actual tax results and the realization of deferred tax assets over time.

Unrecognized tax benefits represent the difference between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the benefits recognized for financial statement purposes. We had $23.9$23.7 million and $30.9$22.5 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. Additionally, we had accrued interest and penalties of $4.0$3.4 million and $2.8$2.9 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

7. Fair value disclosures

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,”Disclosures”, provides a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy can be summarized as follows: 
Level 1Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2Fair value determined using significant observable inputs, generally either quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities or quoted prices in markets that are not active.
Level 3Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs, such as pricing models, discounted cash flows, or similar techniques.

Our assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value are summarized below ($000’s omitted):

8. Commitments and contingencies

Letters of credit and surety bonds

In the normal course of business, we post letters of credit and surety bonds pursuant to certain performance-related obligations, as security for certain land option agreements, and under various insurance programs. The majority of these letters of credit and surety bonds are in support of our land development and construction obligations to various municipalities, other government agencies, and utility companies related to the construction of roads, sewers, and other infrastructure. We had outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds totaling $282.3$347.0 million and $2.1 billion, respectively, at June 30, 2022 and $298.8 million and $1.8 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2021 and $249.7 million and $1.5 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2020.2021. In the event any such letter of credit or surety bond is drawn, we would be obligated to reimburse the issuer of the letter of credit or surety bond. Our surety bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather we are released from the surety bonds as the underlying contractual performance is completed. Because significant construction and development work has been performed related to projects that have not yet received final acceptance by the respective counterparties, the aggregate amount of surety bonds outstanding is in excess of the projected cost of the remaining work to be performed. We do not believe that a material amount, if any, of the letters of credit or surety bonds will be drawn.

Litigation and regulatory matters

We are involved in various litigation and legal claims in the normal course of our business operations, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. We are also subject to a variety of local, state, and federal laws and regulations related to land development activities, house construction standards, sales practices, mortgage lending operations, employment practices, and protection of the environment. As a result, we are subject to periodic examination or inquiry by various governmental agencies that administer these laws and regulations.

We establish liabilities for litigation, legal claims, and regulatory matters when such matters are both probable of occurring and any potential loss is reasonably estimable. We accrue for such matters based on the facts and circumstances specific to each matter and revise these estimates as the matters evolve. In such cases, there may exist an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts currently accrued. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of these legal and regulatory matters, we generally cannot predict the ultimate resolution of the pending matters, the related timing, or the eventual loss. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the resolution of such matters will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. However, to the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds the estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matter, we could incur additional charges that could be significant.

Product warranty

Home purchasers are provided with a limited warranty against certain building defects, including a one-year comprehensive limited warranty and coverage for certain other aspects of the home’s construction and operating systems for periods of up to, and, in limited instances, exceeding, 10 years. We estimate the costs to be incurred under these warranties and record liabilities in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect our warranty liabilities include the number of homes sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and the projected cost per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of the warranty liabilities for each geographic market in which we operate and adjust the amounts as necessary. Actual warranty costs in the future could differ from the current estimates. Changes to warranty liabilities were as follows ($000’s omitted):

Self-insured risks

We maintain, and require our subcontractors to maintain, general liability insurance coverage. We also maintain builders' risk, property, errors and omissions, workers' compensation, and other business insurance coverage. These insurance policies protect us against a portion of the risk of loss from claims. However, we retain a significant portion of the overall risk for such claims either through policies issued by our captive insurance subsidiaries or through our own self-insured per occurrence and aggregate retentions, deductibles, and claims in excess of available insurance policy limits.

Our general liability insurance includes coverage for certain construction defects. While construction defect claims can relate to a variety of circumstances, the majority of our claims relate to alleged problems with siding, plumbing, foundations and other concrete work, windows, roofing, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. The availability of general liability insurance for the homebuilding industry and its subcontractors has become increasingly limited, and the insurance policies available require us to maintain significant per occurrence and aggregate retention levels. In certain instances, we may offer our subcontractors the opportunity to purchase insurance through one of our captive insurance subsidiaries or participate in a project-specific insurance program provided by us. Policies issued by our captive insurance subsidiaries represent self-insurance of these risks by us. A portion of this self-insured exposure is limited by reinsurance policies that we purchase. General liability coverage for the homebuilding industry is complex, and our coverage varies from policy year to policy year.
21


PULTEGROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Our insurance coverage requires a per occurrence deductible up to an overall aggregate retention level. Beginning with the first dollar, amounts paid to satisfy insured claims generally apply to our per occurrence and aggregate retention obligations. Any amounts incurred in excess of the occurrence or aggregate retention levels are covered by insurance up to our purchased coverage levels. Our insurance policies, including the captive insurance subsidiaries' reinsurance policies, are maintained with highly-rated underwriters for whom we believe counterparty default risk is not significant.

At any point in time, we are managing approximately 1,000 individual claims related to general liability, property, errors and omissions, workers' compensation, and other business insurance coverage. We reserve for costs associated with such claims (including expected claims management expenses) on an undiscounted basis at the time revenue is recognized for each home closing and periodically evaluate the recorded liabilities based on actuarial analyses of our historical claims. The actuarial analyses calculate estimates of the ultimate net cost of all unpaid losses, including estimates for incurred but not reported losses ("IBNR"). IBNR represents losses related to claims incurred but not yet reported plus development on reported claims.

Our recorded reserves for all such claims totaled $624.7$652.7 million and $641.8$627.1 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. The recorded reserves include loss estimates related to both (i) existing claims and related claim expenses and (ii) IBNR and related claim expenses. Liabilities related to IBNR and related claim expenses represented approximately 70%74% and 68%70% of the total general liability reserves at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. The actuarial analyses that determine the IBNR portion of reserves consider a variety of factors, including the frequency and severity of losses, which are based on our historical claims experience supplemented by industry data. The actuarial analyses of the reserves also consider historical third party recovery rates and claims management expenses.

Housing market conditions can be volatile, and we believe such conditions can affect the frequency and cost of construction defect claims. Additionally, IBNR estimates comprise the majority of our liability and are subject to a high degree of uncertainty due to a variety of factors, including changes in claims reporting and resolution patterns, third partythird-party recoveries, insurance industry practices, the regulatory environment, and legal precedent. State regulations vary, but construction defect claims are typically reported and resolved over an extended period, often exceeding ten years. Changes in the frequency and timing of reported claims and estimates of specific claim values can impact the underlying inputs and trends utilized in the actuarial analyses, which could have a material impact on the recorded reserves. Additionally, the amount of insurance

(UNAUDITED)
coverage available for each policy period also impacts our recorded reserves. Because of the inherent uncertainty in estimating future losses and the timing of such losses related to these claims, actual costs could differ significantly from estimated costs.

Adjustments to reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. We reduced general liability reserves by $56.6$49.1 million and $59.4$55.2 million induring the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively, as a result of changes in estimates resulting from actual claim experience being less than anticipated in previous actuarial projections. The changes in actuarial estimates were driven by changes in actual claims experience that, in turn, impacted actuarial estimates for potential future claims. These changes in actuarial estimates did not involve any changes in actuarial methodology but did impact the development of estimates for future periods, which resulted in adjustments to the IBNR portion of our recorded liabilities. Costs associated with our insurance programs are classified within selling, general, and administrative expenses. Changes in these liabilities were as follows ($000's omitted):

$69.5 $57.5 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. Those receivables relate to costs incurred to perform corrective repairs, settle claims with customers, and other costs related to the continued progression of construction defect claims that we believe are insured. Given the complexity inherent with resolving construction defect claims in the homebuilding industry described above, there generally exists a significant lag between our payment of claims and our reimbursements from applicable insurance carriers or third parties. In addition, disputes between homebuilders and insurance carriers or third parties over coverage positions relating to construction defect claims are common. Resolution of claims involves the exchange of significant amounts of information and frequently involves legal action.

Leases

We lease certain office space and equipment for use in our operations. We recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and combine lease and non-lease components for all leases. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recorded on the balance sheet for all leases with an expected term of at least one year. Some leases include one or more options to renew. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at our discretion. The depreciable lives of ROU assets and leasehold improvements are limited to the expected lease term. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments based on a pro-rata share of the lessor’s operating costs which are variable in nature. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
    
ROU assets are classified within other assets on the balance sheet, while lease liabilities are classified within accrued and other liabilities. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. ROU assets and lease liabilities were $78.0$70.8 million and $96.9$87.2 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, respectively, and $71.3$74.3 million and $91.4$92.7 million at December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. In the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we recorded an additional $2.1$3.7 million and $15.2$4.2 million, respectively, of lease liabilities under operating leases, respectively, and $13.0$12.0 million and $13.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.comparable prior year periods.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

We continueThe following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is provided as a supplement to experience strong demandand should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our products as new ordersthe year ended December 31, 2021.

Our home sales revenues increased 12%18% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 over the comparable prior year forperiods while our gross margins increased 430 bps and 400 bps, respectively, over the ninesame periods. These results were driven by increases in selling prices in response to robust consumer demand in 2021 and early 2022 when the majority of the homes closed in the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021. While2022 were placed under contract with the customers. The strength in new orders were 17% lower than the prior year for the three months ended September 30, 2021, the decrease was driven primarily by a 14% reduction in community count in combination with Company actions to strategically manage the pace of sales to better align with current production levels. The favorablehome demand for new housing has been driven by mortgage interest rates near historical lows, aand pricing during that period resulted from an extremely limited supply of new and existing home inventory, an increased appeal for homeownership and single-family living, and positive demographic trends, along with low unemployment levels and resulting wage growth. While many of these economic conditions continue, a desire among somehistoric increase in mortgage interest rates during the first half of 2022 has tempered demand for new homes. The rising cost of housing due to increases in average sales prices in recent years and the recent increases in mortgage interest rates, coupled with general inflation in the U.S. economy, have placed additional pressure on overall housing affordability and have caused many potential home buyers to exit more densely populated urban centers or to relocate from higher cost geographical regions.pause and reconsider their housing choices. As a result, our order backlog increased 33% in unitsnew orders were 23% and 56% in dollars as of September 30, 2021 over the prior year.

Home closings increased 9% and 14% in21% lower for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, respectively, compared with the comparable prior year periods. The higher closing volume is despite significant disruption

Due to the increased level of new homebuilding activity in the homebuildingUS, coupled with impacts on the US supply chain includingand construction and municipal workforces due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the availability of certain materials and construction labor, combined with delays in municipal approvals and inspections, which hashave elongated the production cycle of the homes we are constructing. While we are working with our supply partners, have significantly increased our speculative housing starts, and have hired additional construction and customer service employees, our production cycle times have extended in the majoritysubstantially all of our markets duemarkets. The time required to construct a home was approximately eight weeks longer in the challenges referenced above.second quarter of 2022 as compared with the prior year period and approximately two weeks longer than the first quarter of 2022. Due to these supply chain and labor challenges, we are moderatingmoderated lot releases and the pace of new orders in the majority of our communities in 2021 and early 2022 in order to balance sales volume and production capacity to reduce backlog durations. Given the affordability challenges described above and the resulting impact on demand, we have reduced the number of communities where we are moderating lot releases and have increased sales incentives moderately in certain communities. We believe these conditions will continue to impact our industry for at least the next few quarters.remainder of 2022.

WeThe noted supply chain and labor issues are also facingleading to significant cost pressures in almost all areas of our business, but especially related to construction labor and materials, due in large part to a shortage of workers and supply chain challenges resulting from ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and other macroeconomic factors.materials. Specifically, the cost of lumber more than quadrupled from mid-2020continues to mid-2021. While the cost of lumber has declined significantly since peaking in May 2021, itbe extremely volatile and remains elevated compared to historical norms, andnorms. Additionally, the availability of certain wood products, including roof and floor trusses and oriented strand boards, remains challenged. We also continue to experience significant challenges with the cost and availability of windows, siding, cabinets, and appliances, among other supply categories. To date, we have been and believe we will continue to be, able to increase pricing to offset the majority of such cost increases, duebut there can be no assurances that we will continue to ongoing high consumer demand.be able to do so in the future.

Despite the development of vaccines and more effective treatments for the physical impacts of COVID-19, there are no reliable estimates of how long the COVID-19 pandemic, or its related impacts on overall economic conditions or the global supply chain, will last. As a result, the unpredictability of the current economic and public health conditions will continue to evolve. The unpredictability of current economic conditions will also continue to evolve due to disruptions occurring as a result of the military conflict in Ukraine and related sanctions or other actions against Russia imposed by the U.S. and other countries. However, all of our operations continue to function at effectively full capacity subject to health and safety protocols, and we remain optimistic about future housing demand and our ability to continue expanding our business. Due to the higherstrength of consumer demand and longextended municipal entitlement timelines, the number of our active communities continues to decreasedecreased in 2021 as we closesold out communities at a pace faster than we are openingopened new ones. While weWe have increased our investments in land acquisition and development weand expect that the number of our active communities will not begin to increase meaningfully untilas we proceed through 2022.

Home sale revenues

Home sale revenues forin the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 were higher than the prior year periods by $500.6$574.2 million and $1.6$1.0 billion, respectively.

The increaseincreases in closings was primarily the result of favorable demand conditions, including a large backlog of orders. Beginning in March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic began to unfavorably impact the demand environment. However, demand improved significantly beginning in June 2020 and has remained favorable. The higher average selling price reflectsreflected the impact

of pricing actions taken in response to robust consumer demand in 2021 and early 2022 when the higher demand as well as increased input costs,majority of the homes that closed were placed under contract with the customers, partially offset by a smallan increase in the mix of first-time buyer homes, which typically carry a lower sales price. The year-over-year increases in average selling price occurred in substantially all of our markets.

Home sale gross margins

Home sale gross margins were 26.5%30.9% and 26.2% for30.1% in the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, respectively, compared to 24.5%26.6% and 24.1% for26.1% in the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, respectively. Gross margins forreflect the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 remained higher than prior year levels and reflect a combination of factors, including: strongrobust consumer demand that existed in 2021 and early 2022 when the low mortgage interest rate environment, andmajority of the homes were placed under contract with the customers combined with limited supplies of new and existing housing inventory. AsThis resulted in a result, thestrong pricing environment, remains strong, which has allowed us to effectively manageoffset pressure in house and land costs through pricing actions. While costs remain elevated, we have been able to more than offset these cost increases through price increases. Additionally, while speculative home sales (homes started prior to receipt of a customer order) remain the minority of our operations, the current environment is providing opportunities for additional pricing and relative margin gains related to such homes.

Land sale and other revenues

We periodically elect to sell parcels of land to third parties in the event such assets no longer fit into our strategic operating plans or are zoned for commercial or other development. Land sale and other revenues and their related gains or losses vary between periods, depending on the timing of land sales and our strategic operating decisions. Land sales and other revenues contributed income of $15.6$2.2 million and $20.0$3.3 million for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, respectively, compared to $3.7$1.9 million and $14.5$4.4 million for the three and ninesix months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. Income in the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, included a gain of $12.9 million related to a land sale transaction in California that had been in the entitlement process for a number of years.respectively.

SG&A

SG&A as a percentage of home sale revenues was 9.6%9.2% and 9.4%9.9% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared with 8.4% and 9.3% for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, respectively, compared with 9.6% and 9.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The gross dollar amount of our SG&A increased $49.2$79.0 million, or 18%29%, for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 compared to September 30, 2020,the prior year period, and increased $132.7$136.3 million, or 18%25%, for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 compared to September 30, 2020.the prior year period. The changeincreases in gross dollars in 20212022 resulted from the higher production volume primarily as the result of higher sales commissions expense. The improvement in year-to-date SG&A as a percentage of home sale revenues is primarily attributable to leverage gained from the higher revenues. This overhead leverage was partially offset in 2021 by higher headcount and other overhead costs to support growth expectations and the increased number of homes in production, volume as well as higher incentive compensation accruals due tocombined with insurance reserve reversalsof $49.1 million and $55.2 million recorded in the Company's strong operating performance. The ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020 also included severance expense of $10.3 million as we took actions in the second quarter of 2020 to reduce overhead expenses due to the disruption caused by the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.2021, respectively (see Note 8).

Net new orders in units increased 12%decreased 21% while net new orders in dollars increased 32%decreased 3% for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 as compared with the prior year period. The decreases in net new order volume in 2021 reflects favorable2022 are due primarily to reduced buyer demand conditions partially offset by ain the second quarter of 2022, particularly for homes that are estimated to close further out in time, as the market responded to increased affordability challenges resulting from an historic increase in mortgage interest rates, increases in the price of homes, and the impact of inflationary pressures in the broader economy. Contributing factors also include our lower average community count as more fully discussed above.and Company actions to intentionally moderate sales pace earlier in 2022 in order to manage our large backlog of orders and supply chain challenges. The cancellation rate (canceled orders for the period divided by gross new orders for the period) was 10%15% and 12% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and 7% and 8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and 12% and 15% for the samecomparable periods in 2020.2021, respectively. The increase in cancellation rates occurred primarily in the second quarter of 2022 due to a decrease in consumer confidence coupled with the increase in mortgage interest rates. Ending backlog dollars, which represents orders for homes that have not yet closed, increased 56%18% at SeptemberJune 30, 2022 compared with June 30, 2021, comparedas the result of higher average selling prices coupled with September 30, 2020.elongated production cycle times.

While competition for well-positioned land is robust, we continue to pursue land investments that we believe can achieve appropriate risk-adjusted returns on invested capital and have increased our controlled lot count asin response to the result of the strong demand environment. Additionally, we continue to seek to increase the percentage of our lots that are controlled via land option agreement.agreements. Such contracts enable us to defer acquiring portions of properties owned by third parties or unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether and when to exercise our option, which reduces our financial risks associated with long-term land holdings. The remaining purchase price under our land option agreements totaled $5.3$6.5 billion at SeptemberJune 30, 2021.

These land option agreements generally may be canceled at our discretion and in certain cases extend over several years. Our maximum exposure related to these land option agreements is generally limited to our deposits and pre-acquisition costs, which totaled $354.3 million, of which $19.4 million is refundable, at September 30, 2021.2022.

Financial Services Operations

We conduct our Financial Services operations, which include mortgage banking, title, and insurance brokerage operations, through Pulte Mortgage LLC ("Pulte Mortgage") and other subsidiaries. In originating mortgage loans, we initially use our own funds, including funds available pursuant to a credit agreementsagreement with third parties. Substantially all of the loans we originate are sold in the secondary market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. We also sell the servicing rights for the loans we originate through fixed price servicing sales contracts to reduce the risks and costs inherent in servicing loans. This strategy results in owning loans and related servicing rights for only a short period of time. Operating as a captive business model primarily targeted to support our Homebuilding operations, the business levels of our Financial Services operations are highly correlated to Homebuilding, as Homebuilding customers continue to account for substantially all of its business. We believe that our mortgage capture rate, which represents loan originations from our Homebuilding operations as a percentage of total loan opportunities excluding cash closings, from our Homebuilding operations, excluding cash closings, is an important metric in evaluating the effectiveness of our captive mortgage business model. The following tables present selected financial information for our Financial Services operations ($000's omitted):

Revenues

The demand for refinancing within the mortgage industry waned in 2021 and into 2022 as mortgage interest rates began to rise, which led to an increase in competition among lenders and lower margins per loan. As a result, total Financial Services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased 9% and 15%, respectively, compared with the same

Ina decrease in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, loan margins are lower than the prior year periodsnumber of loans originated due to competition driven by a reduction in refinance volume within the mortgage industry, which has lowered gains from the sale of mortgages in the secondary market. Total Financial Services revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 decreased 14% comparedlower capture rate combined with the same period in 2020 primarily as a result of lower revenue per loan due to this increased competition,resulting from the competitive lending environment. These factors were partially offset by a higher average loan origination volume resulting from Homebuilder volume growth.

Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 was 23.3%24.5% and 22.4%24.4%, respectively, compared to 14.0%21.3% and 19.6%21.9%, respectively, for the same periods in 2020.2021. The 20202022 effective tax rates are lowerhigher than the 2021 effective tax rates for the same periods primarily due to the benefit of federal energy efficient home credits.credits in 2021, which expired at December 31, 2021, and a reduction in valuation allowances relating to projected utilization of certain state net operating loss carryforwards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We finance our land acquisition, development, and construction activities and financial services operations using internally-generated funds, supplemented by credit arrangements with third parties and capital market financing. We routinely monitor current and expected operational requirements and financial market conditions to evaluate accessing other available financing sources, including revolving bank credit and securities offerings.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we had unrestricted cash and equivalents of $1.6 billion,$662.8 million, restricted cash balances of $56.3$69.3 million, and $717.7$903.0 million available under our Revolving Credit Facility. We follow a diversified investment approach for our cash and equivalents by maintaining such funds with a broad portfolio of banks within our group of relationship banks in high quality, highly liquid, short-term deposits and investments. Given the financial resources available to us, we believe that we have adequate liquidity to continue funding our operations for the foreseeable future.

Our ratio of debt to totaldebt-to-total capitalization, excluding our Financial Services debt, was 22.4%20.8% at SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, as compared with 29.5%21.3% at December 31, 2020.2021.

For the next twelve months, we expect our principal demand for funds will be for the acquisition and development of land inventory, construction of house inventory, and operating expenses, including our general and administrative expenses. The elongation of our production cycle has required a greater investment of cash in our homes under production. Additionally, we plan to continue our dividend payments and repurchases of common stock. Within the next twelve months, we need to repay or refinance Pulte Mortgage's master repurchase agreement with third-party lenders (the "Repurchase Agreement"). While we intend to refinance the Repurchase Agreement prior to its maturity, there can be no assurances that the Repurchase Agreement can be renewed or replaced on commercially reasonable terms upon its expiration. However, we believe we have adequate liquidity to meet Pulte Mortgage's anticipated financing needs. Beyond the next twelve months, we will need to repay or refinance our Revolving Credit Facility, which matures in June 2027, and our unsecured senior notes, the next tranche of which becomes due in 2026.

We believe that our current cash position and other available financing resources, coupled with our ongoing operating activities, will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our business needs over the next twelve months and beyond. To the extent the sources of capital described above are insufficient to meet our needs, we may also conduct additional public offerings of our securities, refinance debt, dispose of certain assets to fund our operating activities, or draw on existing or new debt facilities.

Unsecured senior notes

We had $2.0 billion and $2.7 billion of unsecured senior notes outstanding at Septemberboth June 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020, respectively,2021 with no repayments due until March 2026, when $500.0 million of unsecured senior notes are scheduled to mature.

In the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, we retired $426.0 million of senior notes at their scheduled maturity date and also accelerated the retirement of $200.0 million and $100.0 million of our unsecured notes scheduled to mature in 2026 and 2027, respectively, through a cash tender offer. The retirement resulted in a loss of $61.5 million, which includes the write-off of debt issuance costs, unamortized discounts and premiums, and transaction fees. We also retired $426.0 million of senior notes at their scheduled maturity date.

Other notes payable

Other notes payable include non-recourse and limited recourse secured notes with third parties that totaled $71.4$40.5 million and $40.1$40.2 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively. These notes have maturities ranging up to fourthree years, are secured by the applicable land positions to which they relate, and generally have no recourse to other assets. The stated interest rates on these notes range up to 6%.

Revolving credit facility
    
We maintain a revolving credit facility (the "RevolvingIn June 2022, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Revolving Credit Facility") maturing in, which replaced our previous credit agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility contains substantially similar terms to the previous credit agreement, increased our borrowing capacity, and extended the maturity date from June 2023 thatto June 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility has a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.0$1.3 billion and contains an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the capacity to $1.5$1.8 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit that reduce the available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility, with a sublimit of $500.0 million at September 30, 2021.up to the maximum borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be based on either the London Interbank OfferedSecured Overnight Financing Rate ("LIBOR"SOFR") or a base rate plus an applicable margin, as defined therein. As a precautionary measure during the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, we made the decision in March 2020 to draw $700.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. In June 2020, we repaid the full outstanding balance of $700.0 million. We had no borrowings outstanding at either SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 or December 31, 2020,2021, and $282.3$347.0 million and $249.7$298.8 million of letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio, and a maximum Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio (as each term is defined in the Revolving Credit Facility). As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we were in compliance with all covenants. Our available and unused borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, amounted to $717.7$903.0 million and $750.3$701.2 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

Joint venture debt

At June 30, 2022, aggregate outstanding debt of unconsolidated joint ventures was $70.7 million of which $42.4 million was related to one joint venture in which we have a 50% interest. In connection with this loan, we and our joint venture partner provided customary limited recourse guaranties in which our maximum financial loss exposure is limited to our pro rata share of the debt outstanding.

Financial Services debt

Pulte Mortgage maintains a master repurchase agreement with third party lenders (as amended, the "Repurchase Agreement") thatThe Repurchase Agreement matures on July 28, 2022. The maximum aggregate commitment was $580.0$550.0 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, which will increase to $650.0 million during the seasonally high borrowing period from December 27, 2021continues through January 13, 2022. At all other times, the maximum aggregate commitment ranges from $460.0 million to $550.0 million.maturity. Borrowings under the Repurchase Agreement are secured by residential mortgage loans available-for-sale. The Repurchase Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Pulte Mortgage, including quantitative thresholds related to net worth, net income, and liquidity. Pulte Mortgage had $476.5$442.8 million and $411.8$626.1 million outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement at SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively, and was in compliance with all of its covenants and requirements as of such dates.

Dividends and share repurchase program

In the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022, we declared cash dividends totaling $72.0 million and repurchased 17.4 million shares under our repurchase authorization for $794.2 million. In the six months ended June 30, 2021, we declared cash dividends totaling $110.3$74.1 million and repurchased 12.06.9 million shares under our repurchase authorization for $614.3$353.7 million. On April 26, 2021,January 31, 2022, the Board of Directors approved an additional share repurchase authorization of $1.0 billion. At SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we had remaining authorization to repurchase $740.6$663.3 million of common shares.

Contractual Obligations

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 June 30, 2022, while others are considered future commitments. Our contractual obligations primarily consist of long-term debt and related interest payments, purchase obligations related to expected acquisitions and development of land, operating leases, and obligations under our various compensation and benefit plans.

35


We use letters of credit and surety bonds to guarantee our performance under various contracts, principally in connection with the development of our homebuilding projects. The expiration dates of the letter of credit contracts coincide with the expected completion date of the related homebuilding projects. If the obligations related to a project are ongoing, annual extensions of the letters of credit are typically granted on a year-to-year basis. At June 30, 2022, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $347.0 million. Our surety bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. These bonds, which approximated $2.1 billion at June 30, 2022, are typically outstanding over a period of approximately three to five years. Because significant construction and development work has been performed related to projects that have not yet received final acceptance by the respective counterparties, the aggregate amount of surety bonds outstanding is in excess of the projected cost of the remaining work to be performed.

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land option agreements in order to procure land for the construction of houses in the future. At June 30, 2022, these agreements had an aggregate remaining purchase price of $6.5 billion. Pursuant to these land option agreements, we generally provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices. At June 30, 2022, outstanding deposits totaled $291.9 million, of which $22.7 million is refundable.

For further information regarding our primary obligations, refer to Note 4 and Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on 10-Q for amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2022 related to debt and commitments and contingencies, respectively.

Cash flows

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities forin the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 was $548.2$102.3 million. Generally, the primary drivers of our cash flow from operations are profitability and changes in the levels of inventory and residential mortgage loans available-for-sale, each of which experiences seasonal fluctuations. The positive cash flow from operations for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 was primarily due to net income of $1.1 billion along with a seasonal $393.4 million decrease in residential mortgage loans available for sale, offset by a net increase in inventories of $1.7 billion, which was primarily attributable to higher house inventory in production combined with investment in land inventory to support future growth. Reflecting the higher house inventory levels, we also experienced an increase in accounts payable.

Net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $432.1 million. The positive cash flow from operations in six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to our net income of $1.3 billion,$807.5 million, which included various non-cash items including a loss on debt retirement of $61.5 million, partially offset by a net increase in inventories of $1.1 billion,$632.6 million, which was primarily attributable to higher house inventory in production resulting fromproduction. Reflecting the higher sales activity and extended production cycle times combined with higher investment in landhouse inventory to support future growth.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $1.3 billion. The positive cash flow from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to our net income of $968.7 million, which included various non-cash items, a seasonal $108.2 million decrease in residential mortgage loans available-for-sale, and a net decrease in inventories of $84.3 million. The decrease in inventories resulted from our deliberate efforts to reduce inventory spend, especially land acquisition and development spend, during the second quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While a seasonallevels, we also experienced an increase in house inventory partially offset the reduced land expenditures, the size of the seasonal increase was lower as we tightly managed production levels during the second quarter of 2020.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities forin the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 was $86.5$123.1 million. These cash outflows primarily reflected a $10.4 million deferred payment related to the 2020 acquisition of Innovative Construction Group ("ICG"), $35.8$50.5 million of investments in unconsolidated entities as well as capital expenditures of $52.1$62.6 million related to our ongoing investments in new communities, facilities, and certain information technology applications.

Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $47.4 million. These cash outflows in 2021 primarily reflected a $10.4 million deferred payment related to the 2020 acquisition of ICG, as well as capital expenditures of $31.5 million related to our ongoing investments in new communities and certain information technology applications. These outflows were partially offset by distributions from unconsolidated entities of $11.5 million.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $107.2 million. These cash outflows primarily reflected our acquisition of ICG in January 2020 for $83.3 million, as well as capital expenditures of $46.9 million related to our ongoing investments in new communities and certain information technology applications. These outflows were partially offset by distributions from unconsolidated entities of $19.9 million.

Financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities forin the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 totaled $1.5$1.1 billion. These cash outflows resulted primarily from the repurchase of 12.017.4 million common shares for $614.3$794.2 million under our share repurchase authorization, payments of $74.2 million in cash dividends, and net repayments of $183.3 million under the Repurchase Agreement related to a seasonal reduction in residential mortgage loans available-for-sale.

Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $1.3 billion. These cash outflows in 2021 resulted primarily from the repurchase of 6.9 million common shares for $353.7 million under our share repurchase authorization, repayments of debt totaling $797.4 million, and payments of $111.7 million in cash dividends. These outflows were partially offset by net borrowings of $64.7 million under the Repurchase Agreement to support higher loan originations resulting from growth in home closing volume.

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 totaled $296.7 million. These cash outflows resulted primarily from the repurchase of 2.8 million common shares for $95.7 million under our share repurchase authorization, repayments of debt totaling $11.0 million, payments of $97.8$74.9 million in cash dividends, and net repayments of $77.5

Inflation

We, and the homebuilding industry in general, may be adversely affected during periods of inflation because of higher land and construction costs. Inflation may also increase our financing costs. In addition, higher mortgage interest rates affect the affordability of our products to prospective homebuyers. While we attempt to pass on increases in our costs through increased sales prices, market forces may limit our ability to do so. If we are unable to raise sales prices enough to compensate for higher costs, or if mortgage interest rates increase significantly, our revenues, gross margins, and net income could be adversely affected.

Seasonality

Although significant changes in market conditions have impacted our seasonal patterns in the past and could do so again, we historically experience variability in our quarterly results from operations due to the seasonal nature of the homebuilding industry. We generally experience increases in revenues and cash flow from operations in the fourth quarter based on the timing of home closings. This seasonal activity increases our working capital requirements in our third and fourth quarters to support our home production and loan origination volumes. As a result of the seasonality of our operations, our quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Additionally, given the disruption in economic activity caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain challenges, increase in mortgage interest rates, and other macroeconomic factors, our quarterly results for 20212022 and 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved in the future.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations from those disclosed in our "Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments" contained in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, with the exception of the retirement of $426 million, $200 million, and $100 million of unsecured senior notes previously scheduled to mature in March 2021, March 2026, and January 2027, respectively.

Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, PulteGroup, Inc. had outstanding $2.0 billion principal amount of unsecured senior notes due at dates from March 2026 through February 2035 and no amounts outstanding on its Revolving Credit Facility.

All of our unsecured senior notes and the Revolving Credit Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by certain subsidiaries of PulteGroup, Inc. ("Guarantors" or "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries is 100% owned, directly or indirectly, by PulteGroup, Inc. Our subsidiaries associated with our financial services operations and certain other subsidiaries do not guarantee the unsecured senior notes or the 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.

A court could void or subordinate any Guarantor’s guarantee under the fraudulent conveyance laws if existing or future creditors of any such Guarantor were successful in establishing that such Guarantor:

(a) incurred the guarantee with the intent of hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors; or

(b) received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration in return for incurring the guarantee and, in the case of any one of the following is also true at the time thereof:

such Guarantor was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of the issuance of the incurrence of the guarantee;
the incurrence of the guarantee left such Guarantor with an unreasonably small amount of capital or assets to carry on its business;
such Guarantor intended to, or believed that it would, incur debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature; or
such Guarantor was a defendant in an action for money damages, or had a judgment for money damages docketed against it, if the judgment is unsatisfied after final judgment.

The measures of insolvency for purposes of determining whether a fraudulent conveyance occurred would vary depending upon the laws of the relevant jurisdiction and upon the valuation assumptions and methodology applied by the court. However, in general, a court would deem a company insolvent if:

the sum of its debts, including contingent and unliquidated liabilities, was greater than the fair salable value of all of its assets;
the present fair salable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or
it could not pay its debts as they became due.

The guarantees of the senior notes contain a provision to limit each Guarantor’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer. However, under recent case law, this provision may not be effective to protect such guarantee from being voided under fraudulent transfer law or otherwise determined to be unenforceable. If a court were to find that the incurrence of a guarantee was a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, the court could void the payment obligations under that guarantee, could subordinate that guarantee to presently
37


existing and future indebtedness of the Guarantor or could require the holders of the senior notes to repay any amounts received with respect to that guarantee. In the event of a finding that a fraudulent transfer or conveyance occurred, you may not receive any repayment on the senior notes.

Finally, as a court of equity, a bankruptcy court may subordinate the claims in respect of the guarantees to other claims against us under the principle of equitable subordination if the court determines that (1) the holder of senior notes engaged in some type of inequitable conduct, (2) the inequitable conduct resulted in injury to our other creditors or conferred an unfair advantage upon the holders of senior notes, and (3) equitable subordination is not inconsistent with the provisions of the bankruptcy code.

On the basis of historical financial information, operating history and other factors, we believe that each of the Guarantors, after giving effect to the issuance of the guarantees when such guarantees were issued, was not insolvent, did not have unreasonably small capital for the business in which it engaged and did not and has not incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. There can be no assurance, however, as to what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or that a court would agree with our conclusions in this regard.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We use letters of credit and surety bonds to guarantee our performance under various contracts, principally in connection with the development of our homebuilding projects. The expiration dates of the letter of credit contracts coincide with the expected completion date of the related homebuilding projects. If the obligations related to a project are ongoing, annual extensions of the letters of credit are typically granted on a year-to-year basis. At September 30, 2021, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $282.3 million. Our surety bonds generally do not have stated expiration dates; rather, we are released from the bonds as the contractual performance is completed. These bonds, which approximated $1.8 billion at September 30, 2021, are typically outstanding over a period of approximately three to five years. Because significant construction and development work has been performed related to projects that have not yet received final acceptance by the respective counterparties, the aggregate amount of surety bonds outstanding is in excess of the projected cost of the remaining work to be performed.

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land option agreements in order to procure land for the construction of houses in the future. At September 30, 2021, these agreements had an aggregate remaining purchase price of $5.3 billion. Pursuant to these land option agreements, we generally provide a deposit to the seller as consideration for the right to purchase land at different times in the future, usually at predetermined prices.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Quantitative disclosure

We are subject to market risk on our debt instruments primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates. We utilize both fixed-rate 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 affect the fair value of the debt instrument but could affect our earnings and cash flows. Except in very limited circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity. As a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value should not have a significant impact on our fixed-rate debt until we are required or elect to refinance or repurchase such debt.     

The following table sets forth the principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted-average interest rates, and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 ($000’s omitted):

Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities, as well as those of the markets we serve or intend to serve, to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate to matters of a strictly factual or historical nature and generally discuss or relate to forecasts, estimates or other expectations regarding future events.

Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, among other things: interest rate changes and the availability of mortgage financing; competition within the industries in which we operate; including as it relates to our ability to take pricing actions to offset rising expenses; the availability and cost of land and other raw materials used by us in our Homebuildinghomebuilding operations; the impact of any changes to our strategy in responding to the cyclical nature of the industry, including any changes regarding our land positions and the levels of our land spend; the availability and cost of insurance covering risks associated with our businesses; shortages and the cost of labor; weather related slowdowns; slow growth initiatives and/or local building moratoria; governmental regulation directed at or affecting the housing market, the homebuilding industry or construction activities; uncertainty in the mortgage lending industry, including revisions to underwriting standards and repurchase requirements associated with the sale of mortgage loans; the interpretation of or changes to tax, labor and environmental laws which could have a greater impact on our effective tax rate or the value of our deferred tax assets than we anticipate; economic changes nationally or in our local markets, including inflation, deflation, changes in consumer confidence and preferences and the state of the market for homes in general; legal or regulatory proceedings or

See PulteGroup's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,2021, and other public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for a further discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties applicable to our businesses.
