Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NVR, Inc. (“NVR”, the “Company”, "we", "us" or "our") and its subsidiaries and certain other entities in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary (see Notes 2 and 3 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements).  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  Because the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP, they should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals except as otherwise noted herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.2021.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, comprehensive income equaled net income; therefore, a separate statement of comprehensive income is not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Homebuilding revenue is recognized on the settlement date at the contract sales price, when control is transferred to our customers. Our contract liabilities, which consist of deposits received from customers (“Handmoney”) on homes not settled, were $158,016$365,443 and $131,886$240,758 as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. We expect that substantially all of the customer deposits held at December 31, 2019 Handmoney balance2020 will be recognized in revenue in 2020.2021. Our contract assets consist of prepaid sales compensation and totaled approximately $23,300$25,400 and $14,600,$22,500, as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.

We generally do not engage in the land development business.  Instead, we adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which changedtypically acquire finished building lots at market prices from various development entities under LPAs.  The LPAs require deposits that may be forfeited if we fail to perform under the impairment recognitionLPAs.  The deposits required under the LPAs are in the form of financial assets from an as incurred recognition methodologycash or letters of credit in varying amounts, and typically range up to requiring immediate recognition10% of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining lifeaggregate purchase price of many financial assets. Our adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.the finished lots.  

As of June 30, 2020,2021, we controlled approximately 98,600112,000 lots under Lot Purchase AgreementsLPAs with third parties through deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $423,600$460,900 and $6,400,$6,900, respectively.  As noted above, ourOur sole legal obligation and economic loss for failure to perform under these Lot Purchase AgreementsLPAs is limited to the amount of the deposit pursuant to the liquidated damage provisions contained in the Lot Purchase Agreements. DuringLPAs. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a net reversal of approximately $7,200 and $13,400, respectively, related to previously impaired lot deposits as market conditions have improved. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurredrecorded pre-tax charges of approximately $900 and $37,300, respectively, related to the impairment of deposits under Lot Purchase AgreementsLPAs due primarily to deteriorating market conditions in certain of our markets related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The impairment charges were recorded in cost of sales on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. Our contract land deposit is shown net of a $63,647$38,831 and $27,572$52,205 impairment reserve at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.

In addition, we have certain properties under contract with land owners that are expected to yield approximately 6,3009,000 lots, which are not included in the number of total lots controlled.  Some of these properties may require rezoning or other approvals to achieve the expected yield. These properties are controlled with deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $1,000$3,200 and $100, respectively, as of June 30, 2020,2021, of which approximately $600$2,800 is refundable if certain contractual conditions are not met.  We generally expect to assign the raw land contracts to a land developer and simultaneously enter into a Lot Purchase Agreementan LPA with the assignee if the project is determined to be feasible.

3.    Joint Ventures

On a limited basis, we obtain finished lots using joint venture limited liability corporations (“JVs”). The JVs are typically structured such that we are a non-controlling member and are at risk only for the amount we have invested, or have committed to invest, in addition to any deposits placed under Lot Purchase AgreementsLPAs with the joint venture.JV. We are not a borrower, guarantor or obligor on any debt of the JVs, as applicable. We enter into Lot Purchase AgreementsLPAs to purchase lots from these JVs, and as a result have a variable interest in these JVs.

At June 30, 2020,2021, we had an aggregate investment totaling approximately $28,400$21,700 in 4 JVs that are expected to produce approximately 6,1502,350 finished lots, of which approximately 2,8002,000 lots were controlled by us and the remaining approximately 3,350350 lots were either under contract with unrelated parties or not currently under contract. In addition, weWe had additional funding commitments totaling approximately $4,200$3,100 to 1one of the JVs at June 30, 2020.2021. We have determined that we are not the primary beneficiary of 3 of the JVs because we either share power with the other JV partner or the other JV partner has the controlling financial interest. The aggregate investment in unconsolidated JVs was approximately $28,400$21,700 and $26,700$23,600 at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively, and is reported in the “Other assets” line item on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. None of the unconsolidated JVs had any indicators of impairment as of June 30, 2020. For the

We recognize income from the JVs as a reduction to the lot cost of the lots purchased from the respective JVs when the homes are settled, based on the expected total profitability and the total number of lots expected to be produced by the respective JVs.

We classify distributions received from unconsolidated JVs using the cumulative earnings approach. As a result, distributions received up to the amount of cumulative earnings recognized by us are reported as distributions of earnings and those in excess of that amount are reported as a distribution of capital. These distributions are classified within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as cash flows from operating activities and investing activities, respectively.

4.    Land Under Development

On a limited basis, we directly acquire raw land parcels already zoned for theirits intended use to develop into finished lots.  Land under development includes the land acquisition costs, direct improvement costs, capitalized interest, where applicable, and real estate taxes.

As of June 30, 2020,2021, we directly owned a total of 52 separate raw land parcels with a carrying value of $69,323$7,794 that are expected to produce approximately 600100 finished lots. We also hadhave additional funding commitments of approximately $5,200$5,100 under a joint development agreement related to one parcel, a portion of which we expect will be offset by development credits of approximately $2,900.$2,800. None of the raw parcels had any indicators of impairment as of June 30, 2020.2021.
