D.R. HORTON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
December 31, 20202021


NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include the accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. and all of its 100% 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. TheAs of December 31, 2021, the Company owns a 65%63% controlling interest in Forestar Group Inc. (Forestar) and therefore is required to consolidate 100% of Forestar within its consolidated financial statements, and the 35%37% 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, 2020,2021, 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, 2020.2021.

Reclassifications

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company changed its internal organization and reporting of its operating segments and reportable segments to combine its single-family rental operations and its multi-family rental operations into a new reporting segment and realigned the aggregation of its homebuilding operating segments into 6 new reportable segments to better allocate its homebuilding operating segments across geographic reporting regions. The prior year presentation of the Company’s segment information in Note B and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations has been conformed to the current presentation for all periods presented.

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 months ended December 31, 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 20212022 or subsequent periods.

Business Acquisition

In October 2020, the Company acquired the homebuilding operations of Braselton Homes for approximately $23.0 million in cash. Braselton Homes operates in Corpus Christi, Texas. The assets acquired included approximately 90 homes in inventory, 95 lots and control of approximately 840 additional lots through purchase contracts. The Company also acquired a sales order backlog of approximately 125 homes.

Pending Accounting Standards

In December 2019,March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2019-12 related to simplifying the accounting for income taxes. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2021, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, and it is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform,” which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or 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. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform - Scope,” which clarified the scope and application of the original guidance. The Company will adopt these standards when LIBOR is discontinued and does not expect them to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, which requires application of ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” to recognize and measure contract assets and liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. ASU 2021-08 creates an exception to the general recognition and measurement principle in ASC 805 and will result in recognition of contract assets and contract liabilities consistent with those recorded by the acquiree immediately before the acquisition date. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2023 and interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, and it is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Segment information for the followingthree months ended December 31, 2020 has been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

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.

During fiscal 2020, the Company began constructing and leasing homes as income-producing single-family rental communities. After a rental community is constructed and achieves a stabilized level of leased occupancy, the Company generally expects to market the community for a bulk sale of homes. These operations are reported in the Company’s homebuilding segment. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed its first sale of a single-family rental community representing 124 homes for $31.8 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $14.0 million. At December 31, 2020, the Company’s homebuilding fixed assets included $106.6 million of assets related to its single-family rental platform, representing 13 communities totaling 890 single-family rental homes and finished lots, which included 440 completed homes. At September 30, 2020, the Company’s homebuilding fixed assets included $87.2 million of assets related to its single-family rental platform, representing 10 communities totaling 740 single-family rental homes and finished lots, which included 440 completed homes.Forestar

The Forestar segment is a residential lot development company with operations in 5155 markets across 2123 states. Forestar has made significant investments in land acquisition and development to expand its business across the United States. The 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.

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

In March 2020, Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), which included changes to current forbearance options for government-backed loans designed to keep homeowners in their homes. Due to the uncertainty surrounding these forbearance options, servicing values declined rapidly at the end of March. As a result, the Company began retaining the servicing rights on a portion of its loan originations. Servicing values have since improved, and the Company sold a portion of its retained mortgage servicing rights in the three months ended December 31, 2020. The Company expects to continue retaining some servicing rights prior to selling them to third parties, typically within six months of loan origination.

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 carryforwards. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact the Company’s effective tax rate.

The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

NOTE LK – 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 and is adjusted to reflect qualitative risks associated with the types of homes built and the geographic areas in which they are built.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability during the three months ended December 31, 20202021 and 20192020 were as follows:

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 $491.8$585.2 million and $473.8$577.5 million at December 31, 20202021 and September 30, 2020,2021, respectively, and are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Approximately 99% of these reserves related to construction defect matters at both December 31, 20202021 and September 30, 2020.2021. Expenses related to the Company’s legal contingencies were $17.4$12.9 million and $16.6$17.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively.

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, the Company anticipates it will largely be self-insured. The Company’s estimated insurance receivables from estimated losses for pending legal claims and anticipated future claims related to previously closed homes totaled $82.2$107.0 million, $81.2$109.5 million and $76.9$82.2 million at December 31, 2020,2021, September 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, the Company may have the ability to recover a portion of its losses from its subcontractors and their insurance carriers when the Company has been named as an additional insured on their insurance policies.

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 December 31, 2020,2021, the Company’s homebuilding segmentCompany had total deposits of $776.0 million,$1.3 billion, consisting of cash deposits of $710.3 million$1.2 billion and promissory notes and surety bonds of $65.7$91.9 million, related to contracts to purchase land and lots with a total remaining purchase price of approximately $11.9$17.1 billion. The majority of land and lots under contract are currently expected to be purchased within three years. Of these amounts, $122.9$141.5 million of the deposits related to contracts with Forestar to purchase land and lots with a remaining purchase price of $1.3$1.5 billion. A limited number of the homebuilding land and lot purchase contracts at December 31, 2020,2021, representing $73.5$87.7 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 $73.5$87.7 million remaining purchase price subject to specific performance provisions, $41.5$64.8 million related to contracts between the homebuilding segment and Forestar.

During the three months ended December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, Forestar reimbursed the homebuilding segment $16.1$2.7 million and $10.7$16.1 million, respectively, for previously paid earnest money and $20.9$21.6 million and $5.2$20.9 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.

Other Commitments

At December 31, 2020,2021, the Company had outstanding surety bonds of $1.9$2.4 billion and letters of credit of $192.1$253.5 million to secure performance under various contracts. Of the total letters of credit, $151.6$187.2 million were issued under the homebuilding revolving credit facility and $40.5$66.3 million were issued under Forestar’s revolving credit facility.

(1)The Company typically elects the fair value option upon origination for mortgage loans held for sale. Interest income earned on mortgage loans held for sale is based on contractual interest rates and included in other income. Mortgage loans held for sale valued using Level 3 inputs at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020 include $17.9 million and $15.1 million, respectively, of loans for which the Company elected the fair value option upon origination and did not sell into the secondary market. The fair value of these mortgage loans held for sale is generally calculated considering pricing in the secondary market and adjusted for the value of the underlying collateral, including interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. The Company plans to sell these loans as market conditions permit.
(2)Although the majority of the Company’s mortgage loans are sold on a servicing-released basis, when the servicing rights are retained, the Company records them at fair value using third-party valuations. The key assumptions used in the valuation, which are generally unobservable inputs, are mortgage prepayment rates, discount rates and delinquency rates, which were 11%, 11% and 5%, respectively, at December 31, 2020 and 13%, 11% and 5%, respectively, at September 30, 2020.
(3)Fair value measurements of these derivatives represent changes in fair value, as calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets, and are reflected in the balance sheet as other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are included in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. The net fair value change for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 recognized in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations was not significant.

Our product offerings include a broad range of homes for entry-level, move-up, active adult and luxury buyers across our markets.buyers. Our entry-level homes at affordable price points have experienced very strong demand from homebuyers, as the entry-levelthis segment of the new home market remains under-served, with low inventory levels relative to demand.

During fiscal 2020, we began constructing and leasing homes as income-producing single-family rental communities. After a rental community is constructed and achieves a stabilized level of leased occupancy, we generally expect to market the community for a bulk sale of homes. These operations are reported in our homebuilding segment. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, we completed our first sale of a single-family rental community representing 124 homes for $31.8 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $14.0 million. At December 31, 2020, our homebuilding fixed assets included $106.6 million of assets related to our single-family rental platform, representing 13 communities totaling 890 single-family rental homes and finished lots, which included 440 completed homes.

Our financial services operations provide mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of our homebuilding markets. DHI Mortgage, our 100% owned subsidiary, provides mortgage financing services primarily to our homebuyers and sells substantially all of the mortgages it originates and the majority of the related servicing rights to third-party purchasers. DHI Mortgage originates loans in accordance with purchaser guidelines and sells substantially all of its mortgage production shortly after origination. Our 100% owned subsidiary title companies serve as title insurance agents by providing title insurance policies, examination, underwriting and closing services, primarily related to our homebuilding transactions.

We primarily focus on constructing garden style multi-family communities, which typically accommodate 200 to 400 dwelling units, in high growth suburban markets. After we complete construction and achieve a stabilized level of leased occupancy, the property is typically marketed for sale.

Within our homebuilding land and lot portfolio, our lots controlled under purchase contracts represent 72% of the lots owned and controlled at December 31, 2020 compared to 70% at September 30, 2020 and 61% at December 31, 2019. Our relationship with Forestar and expanded relationships with other land developers across the country have allowed us to increase the controlled portion of our lot pipeline.

COVID-19

During March 2020, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic (C-19) and the related widespread reductions insignificantly disrupted economic activity across the United States began to adversely affect our business. However, residential construction and financial services are designated as essential businesses as part of critical infrastructure in almost all of the municipalities across the U.S. where we operate. We implemented operational protocols to comply with social distancing and other health and safety standards as required by federal, state and local government agencies, taking into consideration guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other public health authorities.

During April 2020 when restrictive stay-at-home orders were in place for many markets across the United States, we experienced increases in sales cancellations and decreased sales orders compared to the prior year. However, asStates. As economic activity began to resume and restrictive orders were eased,resumed, demand for our homes improved significantly during the remainder ofand has remained strong throughout fiscal 20202021 and the first quarter ofinto fiscal 2021.

2022. We believe the increase in demand has been primarily fueled by increased buyer urgency due to lowerhistorically low interest rates on mortgage loans and the limited supply of homes at affordable price points across most of our markets. We were and remainare well-positioned for increased demand with our affordable product offerings, lot supply and housing inventory. However, multiple disruptions in the supply chain, combined with the strong demand for new homes, have resulted in shortages in certain building materials, which, together with tightness in the labor market, has caused our construction cycle to lengthen. We have slowed our home sales pace to more closely align with our production levels, and we are selling homes later in the construction cycle when we have more certainty regarding the home close date for our homebuyers. Based on the current availability of labor and materials, the stage of completion of our current homes in inventory, production schedules and capacity, we expect to continue restricting the pace of our sales orders as necessary in our communities in the near term to match our production levels.

However, evenWithin our homebuilding land and lot portfolio, our lots controlled through purchase contracts represent 76% of the lots owned and controlled at both December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021 compared to 72% at December 31, 2020. Our relationship with Forestar and expanded relationships with other land developers across the resurgencecountry have allowed us to continue to increase the controlled portion of demand, we remain cautious as to the ongoing impact of C-19 on our operations and on the overall economy. There is significant uncertainty regarding the extent to which and how long C-19 and its related effects will impact the U.S. economy and level of employment, capital markets, secondary mortgage markets, consumer confidence, demand for our homes and availability and cost of mortgage loans to homebuyers. The extent to which this impacts our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and severity of C-19 and the impact on our customers, trade partners and employees, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.lot pipeline.

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.

Net Sales Orders

The number of net sales orders increased 56%5% in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 compared to the prior year period, with increases in all of our regions.period. The value of net sales orders increased 62%29% to $8.3 billion (21,522 homes) compared to $6.4 billion (20,418 homes) for the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared to $3.9 billion (13,126 homes) in the prior year period.period, primarily due to the increase in our average selling price. The average selling price of net sales orders during the three months ended December 31, 20202021 was $314,200,$383,600, up 4%22% from the prior year period.

During fiscal 2021 and in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, demand for homes remained strong. However, multiple disruptions in the supply chain, combined with the strong demand for new homes, have resulted in shortages in certain building materials, which, together with tightness in the labor market, has caused our construction cycle to lengthen. As a result, we have slowed our home sales pace to more closely align with our production levels, and we are selling homes later in the construction cycle when we have more certainty regarding the home close date for our homebuyers. Based on the stage of completion of our current homes in inventory, production schedules and capacity, we expect to continue restricting the pace of our sales orders as necessary in our communities in the near term to match our production levels. Although these challenges may persist to some degree for some time, we currently expect to close more homes in fiscal 2022 than we closed in fiscal 2021.

The markets contributing most to the increasesincrease in sales volumes in our regions were as follows: the Carolina marketsvolume in the East;Northwest were Salt Lake City and Portland, and those contributing most to the Denver and Indianapolis marketsincrease in the Midwest; the Florida markets (particularly Tampa) in the Southeast; the Dallas, Houston, AustinNorth were Indianapolis and San Antonio markets in the South Central; the Phoenix market in the Southwest; and the California markets in the West.Suburban Washington, D.C.

Our sales order cancellation rate (cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders for the period) was 18%15% in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 compared to 20%18% in the prior year period.

The increase in our sales orders that occurred in the second half of fiscal 2020 has continued into fiscal 2021 and reflects buyer urgency due to low interest rates on mortgage loans and the limited supply of homes at affordable price points across most of our markets.

Home Sales Gross Profit

Gross profit from home sales increased to $1.4$1.8 billion in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 from $811.7 million$1.4 billion in the prior year period and increased 310330 basis points to 24.1%27.4% as a percentage of home sales revenues. The percentage increase resulted from improvements of 280310 basis points due to a decrease inthe average selling price of our homes closed increasing by more than the average cost of ourthose homes, closed while the average selling price increased slightly, 10 basis points from a decrease in the amount of purchase accounting adjustments related to prior year acquisitions, 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.

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. These actions could cause our gross profit margins to fluctuate in future periods. If new home demand declines from current levels, due to an economic recession, an increase in mortgage interest rates, the impact of C-19 or otherwise, we would expect our gross profit margins to decline from current levels.also decline.

Land/Lot Sales and Other Revenues

Land/lot sales and other revenues from our homebuilding operations were $19.9$23.0 million and $19.7$17.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively.

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 December 31, 2020,2021, our homebuilding operations had $23.8$24.8 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 of December 31, 2020,2021, we performed detailed impairment evaluations ofdetermined that no communities were impaired, and land inventories with a combined carrying value of $33.5 million and recordedno impairment charges of $5.6 millionwere recorded during the three months ended December 31, 20202021 compared to reduce the carrying value$5.6 million of impaired land to fair value. There were no impairment charges recorded in the prior year period.

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, due to C-19 or otherwise, we may be required to evaluate additional communities for potential impairment. These evaluations could result in additional impairment charges which could be significant.

During the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019,2021, earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs related to land purchase contracts that we have terminated or expect to terminate were $3.9 million compared to $2.3 million and $3.5 million, respectively.in the same period of fiscal 2020.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expense

SG&A expense from homebuilding activities increased 26%11% to $451.2$497.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 from $358.4$449.4 million in the prior year period. SG&A expense as a percentage of homebuilding revenues was 7.5% and 7.9% in the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, compared to 9.2% in the prior year period.respectively.

Employee compensation and related costs represented 79%were $409.6 million and 73% of SG&A costs in the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These costs increased 36% to $356.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, representing 82% and 79% of SG&A costs in those periods. These costs increased 15% in the three months ended December 31, 2021 from $262.0 million in the prior year period. Our homebuilding operations employed 8,699 and 7,583 and 6,811 employeespeople at December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively.

We attempt to control our 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 was $24.8 million and $24.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, up slightly from $24.3 million in the prior year period.respectively. Interest charged to cost of sales was 0.7% and 0.8% of total cost of sales (excluding inventory and land option charges), respectively, in both the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Gain on Sale of Assets

During the three months ended December 31, 2020, we sold one single-family rental community representing 124 homes for $31.8 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $13.1 million in our homebuilding segment and $0.9 million in our other businesses.those periods.

Other Income

Other income, net of other expenses, included in our homebuilding operations was $1.5$6.2 million and $2.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, compared to $5.4 million in the prior year period.respectively. Other income consists of interest income and 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.

Business Acquisition

In October 2020, we acquired the homebuilding operations of Braselton Homes for approximately $23.0 million in cash. Braselton Homes operates in Corpus Christi, Texas. The assets acquired included approximately 90 homes in inventory, 95 lots and control of approximately 840 additional lots through purchase contracts. We also acquired a sales order backlog of approximately 125 homes.

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 December 31, 20202021 and September 30, 20202021 are summarized as follows:

Mortgage Loan Activity

The volume of loans originated by our mortgage operations is directly related to the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations. In the three months ended December 31, 2020,2021, the volume of first-lien loans originated or brokered by DHI Mortgage for our homebuyers increased 51%decreased 5% from the prior year period due to the 45% increasea decrease in the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations as well as a 3% increaseand in the percentage of homes closed for which DHI Mortgage handled our homebuyers’ financing.

Homes closed by our homebuilding operations constituted 98% and 97% of DHI Mortgage loan originations in both periods.the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These percentages reflect DHI Mortgage’s consistent focus on the captive business provided by our homebuilding operations.

The number of loans sold increased 54%decreased 3% in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 compared to the prior year period. Virtually all of the mortgage loans held for sale on December 31, 20202021 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 three months ended December 31, 2020,2021, approximately 66%61% of our mortgage loans were sold directly to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or into securities backed by Ginnie Mae, and 27%30% were sold to twoone other major financial entities.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.

Due to the disruption in the secondary mortgage markets beginning in late March 2020 caused by C-19 and the uncertainty of the impact of the CARES Act, many financial entities began offering lower pricing and limiting their purchases of our mortgages and servicing rights. As a result of the rapid decline in servicing values at the end of March, we began retaining the servicing rights on a portion of our loan originations. Servicing values have since improved, and we sold a portion of our retained mortgage servicing rights in the three months ended December 31, 2020. We expect to continue retaining some servicing rights prior to selling them to third parties, typically within six months of loan origination.

Financial Services Revenues and Expenses

Revenues from our mortgage operations increased 88%decreased 5% to $152.4$144.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 from $81.1$152.4 million in the prior year period, primarily due to a 50% increasethe decrease in mortgage loan originations and a higher net gain achieved on the sale of loan originations in the secondary market.originations. Revenues from our title operations increased 60%16% to $34.8$40.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 from $21.8$34.8 million in the prior year period, primarily due to a 50%an increase in escrow closings.the average premium collected on closing transactions.

General and administrative (G&A) expense related to our financial services operations increased 41%14% to $109.5$125.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 from $77.9$109.5 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of financial services revenues, G&A expense was 68.0% in the three months ended December 31, 2021 compared to 58.5% in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in employee related coststhe number of employees to support a higherincreased volume of transactions. Our financial services operations employed 2,403 and 1,882 employees at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

As a percentage of financial services revenues, G&A expense was 58.5% in the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared to 75.7% infourth quarter of fiscal 2021 and expected increased volume for the prior year period. Our significant increase in loan volume resulted in better G&A leverage in the current year period. However,remainder of fiscal 2022. Additionally, 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 2,942 and 2,403 people at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Other income, net of other expense, included in our financial services operations consists primarily of the interest income of our mortgage subsidiary.

As a result of the revenue increasesdecrease from higher volumesa lower volume of mortgage originations and escrow closings and better leverage of ouran increase in employee related G&A expenses, pre-tax income from our financial services operations increased 176%decreased 20% to $84.1$67.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 from $30.5$84.1 million in the prior year period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - RENTAL

Our rental segment consists of multi-family and single-family rental operations. The multi-family rental operations develop, construct, lease and sell residential rental properties. We primarily focus on constructing garden style multi-family rental communities, which typically accommodate 200 to 400 dwelling units, in high growth suburban markets. The single-family rental operations primarily construct and lease single-family homes and then market the community for a bulk sale of rental homes. Multi-family and single-family rental property sales are recognized as revenues, and rental income is recognized as other income. Results of operations for the rental segment for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - OTHER BUSINESSES

In addition to our homebuilding, Forestar, financial services and rental operations, we engage in other business activities through our subsidiaries. We conduct insurance-related operations, own non-residential real estate including ranch land and improvements and own and operate energy-related assets. The combined pre-tax income of all of our subsidiaries engaged in other business activities was $2.2$10.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 20202021 compared to $29.6$6.2 million in the prior year period. Income generated by our other businesses can vary significantly based on the timing of multi-family rental property sales. There were no sales of multi-family rental properties during the current year period. In the prior year period, one property was sold for $61.5 million with a gain on sale of $31.2 million.

Our multi-family rental operations develop, construct, lease and own multi-family residential properties that produce rental income. We primarily focus on constructing garden style multi-family communities, which typically accommodate 200 to 400 dwelling units, in high growth suburban markets. After we complete construction and achieve a stabilized level of leased occupancy, the property is typically marketed for sale. At December 31, 2020, we had four multi-family rental projects under active construction and four projects that were substantially complete. These eight projects represent 2,325 multi-family units, including 1,015 units under active construction and 1,310 completed units.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSOLIDATED

Income before Income Taxes

Pre-tax income for the three months ended December 31, 20202021 was $1.0$1.5 billion compared to $523.3 million$1.0 billion in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income generated by our homebuilding operations as a result of higher revenues from increased home closingsaverage selling prices and an increase in home sales gross margin.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and 2019 was $239.1$351.5 million and $90.8$239.1 million, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 23.1%23.5% for the three months ended December 31, 20202021 compared to 17.4%23.1% in the prior year period. The effective tax rates for both periods include an expense for state income taxes and tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the federal energy efficient homes tax credit. For the three months ended December 31, 2019, the retroactive reinstatement of theThe federal energy efficient homes tax credit expires for homes closed from January 1, 2018 to September 30, 2019 reduced our effective tax rate by 5.6%.after December 31, 2021.

Our deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, were $149.5$141.7 million at December 31, 20202021 compared to $152.4$159.5 million at September 30, 2020.2021. We have a valuation allowance of $7.5$4.1 million and $4.2 million at December 31, 20202021 and September 30, 20202021, respectively, related to state deferred tax assets for net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards that are more likely than not 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 carryforwards. Any reversal of the valuation allowance in future periods will impact our effective tax rate.

The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of our deferred tax assets.

Our net homebuilding debt to total capital (homebuilding notes payable net of cash divided by stockholders’ equity plus homebuilding notes payable net of cash) was 6.9% at December 31, 2021 compared to 1.7% at September 30, 2021 and 3.9% at December 31, 2020. Over the long term, we intend to maintain our ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital below 35%30%, and we expect it to remain significantly lower than 35%30% throughout fiscal 2021.2022. We believe that the ratio of homebuilding debt to total capital is useful in understanding the leverage employed in our homebuilding operations and comparing our capital structure with other homebuilders. We exclude the debt of Forestar and our financial services business because they are separately capitalized and not guaranteed by our parent company or any of our homebuilding entities.

At December 31, 2021, we had outstanding letters of credit of $253.5 million and surety bonds of $2.4 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 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 August 2018,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 September 2018,October 2021, registering $500$750 million of equity securities.securities, of which $300 million was reserved for sales under its at-the-market equity offering program that became effective in November 2021. At December 31, 2020, $394.32021, $748.2 million remained available for issuance under Forestar’s shelf registration statement, $100 million of which is$298.2 million was reserved for sales under its at-the-market equity offering 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 facility 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.

A court could void orthe guarantees, subordinate any Guarantor’s guaranteeamounts owing under the fraudulent conveyance laws if existingguarantees or future creditorsorder other relief detrimental to the holders of any such Guarantor were successful in establishing that: (i) such guarantee was incurred with fraudulent intent; or (ii) such Guarantor did not receive fair consideration or reasonably equivalent value for issuing its guarantee and was insolvent at the time of the guarantee, was rendered insolvent by reason of the guarantee, was engaged in a business or transaction for which its assets constituted unreasonably small capital to carry on its business, or intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debt beyond its ability to pay such debt as it matured.

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. Generally, however, a company would be considered insolvent for purposes of the foregoing if the sum of the company’s debts, including contingent, unliquidated and unmatured liabilities, is greater than all of such company’s property at a fair valuation, or if the present fair saleable value of the company’s assets is less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability on its existing debts as they become absolute and matured.

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.

During the three months ended December 31, 2021, we established reserves for approximately 70 new construction defect claims and resolved 40 construction defect claims for a total cost of $4.3 million. At December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, we had reserves for approximately 270 and 260 pending construction defect claims, respectively, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, we established reserves for approximately 30 new construction defect claims and resolved 20 construction defect claims for a total cost of $2.3 million. At December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, we had reserves for approximately 195 and 180 pending construction defect claims, respectively, and no individual existing claim was material to our financial statements. During the three months ended December 31, 2019, we established reserves for approximately 35 new construction defect claims and resolved 20 construction defect claims for a total cost of $14.9 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 operatingpre-tax income in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. The seasonal nature of our business can also cause significant variations in ourthe working capital requirements infor our homebuilding, lot development, and financial services and rental 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 months ended December 31, 20202021 and 20192020 was not significant, is recognized in current earnings. At December 31, 2020,2021, hedging instruments used to mitigate interest rate risk related to uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale and uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of $2.4$2.8 billion. Uncommitted IRLCs totaled a notional amount of approximately $1.5$1.7 billion and uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale totaled a notional amount of approximately $966.5 million$1.1 billion at December 31, 2020.2021.

We also use hedging instruments as part of a program to offer below market interest rate financing to our homebuyers. At December 31, 20202021 and September 30, 2020,2021, we had MBS totaling $1.4$1.2 billion and $1.1 billion,$834.6 million, respectively, that did not yet have IRLCs or closed loans created or assigned and recorded a liabilityan asset of $7.5$1.3 million and $5.3$1.1 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 December 31, 2020.2021. Because the mortgage repurchase facility is effectively secured by certain mortgage loans held for sale that are typically sold within 60 days, its outstanding balance is included in the most current period presented. The interest rate for our variable rate debt represents the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2020.2021.

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 December 31, 20202021 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 December 31, 20202021 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.

In fiscal 2013, our mortgage subsidiary was subpoenaed by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) regarding the adequacy of certain underwriting and quality control processes related to Federal Housing Administration loans originated and sold in prior years. We have provided information related to these loans and our processes to theDOJ, and communications are ongoing. The DOJ has to date not asserted any formal claim amount, penalty or fine.

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. We believe that such threshold is reasonably designed to result in disclosure of environmental proceedings that are material to our business or financial condition.
