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. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;padding-left:24px;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">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. 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. 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.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;padding-left:24px;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">At any point in time, we are managing over </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">1,000</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> 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.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;padding-left:24px;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Our recorded reserves for all such claims totaled </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$640.0 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$709.8 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> at </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">June 30, 2020</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">December 31, 2019</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, 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 </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">69%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">68%</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of the total general liability reserves at </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">June 30, 2020</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">December 31, 2019</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, 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. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">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 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 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. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Adjustments to reserves are recorded in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. We reduced general liability reserves by </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$60.7 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$59.4 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> during the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three and six months ended</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">June 30, 2020</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, respectively, and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$12.8 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">$16.6 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> during the </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">three and six months ended</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">June 30, 2019</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, respectively, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#212529;">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

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, 2019.

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

In January 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 was paid in January 2020 while additional payments of $10.4 million will be settled in 2021 and 2022, respectively. 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. The acquisition also resulted in $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 ASC 350, 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 short period of time between the acquisition and the March 31, 2020 valuation date.

Restructuring costs

We recorded severance expense of $10.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020, as we took actions to reduce overhead expenses in response to lower demand 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 at the home closing date. 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 $335.0 million and $294.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 completed.

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 party carriers through various agency channels. Our performance obligations for policy renewal commissions are satisfied upon issuance of the initial policy, and related contract assets for estimated future renewal commissions are included in other assets and totaled $36.0 million and $35.1 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 stock options, unvested restricted share units, unvested restricted share units, and other

PULTEGROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

potentially dilutive instruments. Any stock options that have an exercise price greater than the average market price are considered to be anti-dilutive and are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

In accordance with Accounting 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. Our outstanding restricted share units and deferred shares are considered participating securities. The following table presents the earnings per common share (000's omitted, except per share data):

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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, residential mortgage loans available-for-sale had an aggregate fair value of $394.3 million and $509.0 million, respectively, and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $378.0 million and $494.1 million, respectively. The net loss resulting from changes in fair value of these loans totaled $3.6 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $1.4 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These changes in fair value were substantially offset by changes in the fair value of corresponding hedging instruments. Net gains from the sale of mortgages were $66.3 million and $30.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $97.2 million and $54.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, 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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had aggregate IRLCs of $454.4 million and $255.3 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,

PULTEGROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had unexpired forward contracts of $551.0 million and $518.2 million, respectively, and whole loan investor commitments of $225.1 million and $200.7 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.

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):



	June 30, 2020				December 31, 2019
	Other Assets		Accrued and Other Liabilities		Other Assets		Accrued and Other Liabilities
Interest rate lock commitments	$	19,934	$	1,811	$	8,351	$	149
Forward contracts	236		3,624		299		1,372
Whole loan commitments	190		1,805		880		284
	$	20,360	$	7,240	$	9,530	$	1,805

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 June 30, 2020, we reported $198.0 million of assets in-scope under Accounting Standards Codification 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" ("ASC 326"). These assets consist primarily of insurance receivables, contract assets related to insurance brokerage commissions, and vendor rebates. Counterparties associated with these assets are generally highly rated. Allowances on the aforementioned in-scope assets were de minimis as of June 30, 2020.

New accounting pronouncements

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 a new "expected credit loss" methodology. We adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective transition method. The amendment 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.

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 June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019 because we determined that we were not the VIEs' 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.

Land-related charges

We recorded the following land-related charges ($000's omitted):

As explained in Note 1, 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. NRV adjustments occur when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of land held for sale will not be fully recovered.

Our evaluations for land impairments, NRV 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.

3. Segment information

Our Homebuilding operations are engaged in the acquisition and development of land primarily for residential purposes within the U.S. and the construction of housing on such land. For reporting purposes, our Homebuilding operations are aggregated into six reportable segments:

Revolving credit facility

We maintain a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") maturing in 2023 that has a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.0 billion and contains an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the capacity to $1.5 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 June 30, 2020. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be based on either the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") 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. As a result, we had no borrowings outstanding at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and $244.8 million and $262.8 million of letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 June 30, 2020, 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 $755.2 million and $737.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Financial Services debt

Pulte Mortgage maintains a master repurchase agreement with third party lenders (the "Repurchase Agreement") that matures on July 30, 2020. The maximum aggregate commitment was $270.0 million at June 30, 2020 and continues through maturity. 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 $256.4 million and $326.6 million outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and was in compliance with all of its covenants and requirements as of such dates.

5. Shareholders’ equity

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we declared cash dividends totaling $65.1 million and repurchased 2.8 million shares under our repurchase authorization for $95.7 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we declared cash dividends totaling $61.5 million and repurchased 3.5 million shares under our repurchase authorization for $108.5 million. In May 2019, our board of directors approved a $500.0 million increase in our share repurchase authorization. At June 30, 2020, we had remaining authorization to repurchase $429.9 million of common shares.

Under our share-based compensation plans, we accept shares as payment under certain conditions related to stock option exercises and vesting of shares, generally related to the payment of minimum tax obligations. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, participants surrendered shares valued at $14.9 million and $10.4 million, respectively, under these plans. Such share transactions are excluded from the above noted share repurchase authorization.

6. Income taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was 23.7% and 23.4%, respectively, compared to 24.9% and 24.1%, respectively, for the same periods in 2019. Our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to state income tax expense.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities and valuation allowance, of $120.8 million and $170.1 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 $45.1 million and $40.3 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Additionally, we had accrued interest and penalties of $7.0 million and $6.5 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. It is reasonably possible within the next twelve months that our gross unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by up to $24.2 million, excluding interest and penalties, primarily due to potential audit settlements.

7. Fair value disclosures

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and 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 1		Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2		Fair 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 3		Fair 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):



Financial Instrument	Fair Value Hierarchy	Fair Value
Financial Instrument	Fair Value Hierarchy	June 30, 2020			December 31, 2019

Measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale	Level 2	$	394,288		$	508,967
Interest rate lock commitments	Level 2	18,123			8,202
Forward contracts	Level 2	(3,388		)	(1,073		)
Whole loan commitments	Level 2	(1,615		)	596

Measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis:
House and land inventory	Level 3	$	—		$	9,979
Land held for sale	Level 2	—			4,193

Disclosed at fair value:
Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash	Level 1	$	1,697,796		$	1,251,456
Financial Services debt	Level 2	256,359			326,573
Senior notes payable	Level 2	3,025,505			3,098,665
Other notes payable	Level 2	58,686			53,381

Fair values for agency residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are determined based on quoted market prices for comparable instruments. Fair values for non-agency residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are determined based on purchase commitments from whole loan investors and other relevant market information available to management. Fair values for interest rate lock commitments, including the value of servicing rights, and forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities are valued based on market prices for similar instruments. Fair values for whole loan commitments are based on market prices for similar instruments from the specific whole loan investor.

Certain assets are required to be recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The non-recurring fair values included in the above table represent only those assets whose carrying values were adjusted to fair value as of the respective balance sheet dates.

The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents, Financial Services debt and other notes payable approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature and/or floating interest rate terms. The fair values of senior notes are based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of similar issues. The carrying value of senior notes was $2.7 billion at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

8. Commitments and contingencies

Loan origination liabilities

Our mortgage operations may be responsible for losses associated with mortgage loans originated and sold to investors in the event of errors or omissions relating to representations and warranties made by us that the loans met certain requirements, including representations as to underwriting standards, the existence of primary mortgage insurance, and the validity of certain borrower representations in connection with the loan. If a loan is determined to be faulty, we either indemnify the investor for potential future losses, repurchase the loan from the investor, or reimburse the investor's actual losses. In addition, certain trustees and investors continue to attempt to collect damages based on losses from loans that originated prior to 2009. Some of our mortgage subsidiaries are currently defendants in litigation related to such claims.

CTX Mortgage Company, LLC ("CTX Mortgage") was the mortgage subsidiary of Centex and ceased originating loans in December 2009. In the matter Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. ("Lehman") in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York, Lehman has initiated an adversary proceeding against CTX Mortgage seeking indemnity for loans sold to it by CTX Mortgage prior to 2009. This claim is part of a broader action by Lehman in U.S. Bankruptcy Court against more than 100 mortgage originators and brokers. On August 13, 2018, the court denied a motion to dismiss filed by CTX Mortgage and other defendants, and on December 17, 2018, Lehman filed an amended adversary complaint against CTX Mortgage. Lehman's complaint alleges claims for indemnifiable losses of up to $261 million due from CTX Mortgage. We believe that CTX Mortgage has meritorious defenses and CTX Mortgage will continue to vigorously defend itself in this matter. We have recorded a liability for an amount that we consider to be the best estimate within a range of potential losses.

In addition, both CTX Mortgage and Pulte Mortgage sold certain loans originated prior to 2009 to financial institutions that were subsequently included in residential mortgage-backed securities or other securitizations issued by such financial institutions. In connection with such sales, CTX Mortgage and Pulte Mortgage have been put on notice of potential direct and / or third-party claims for indemnification arising out of litigation relating to certain of these residential mortgage-backed securities or other securitizations and, in some instances, such claims have resulted in legal proceedings against CTX Mortgage and Pulte Mortgage. We cannot yet quantify CTX Mortgage's or Pulte Mortgage's potential liability as a result of these matters. We do not believe, however, that these matters will have a material adverse impact on the results of operations, financial position, or cash flows of the Company.

Our recorded liabilities for all such claims totaled $25.3 million and $25.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Determining the liabilities for anticipated losses requires a significant level of management judgment. Given the unsettled litigation, changes in values of underlying collateral over time, unpredictable factors inherent in litigation, and other uncertainties regarding the ultimate resolution of these claims, actual costs could differ from our current estimates.

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 $244.8 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, at June 30, 2020 and $262.8 million and $1.4 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2019. 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. 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. 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 over 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 $640.0 million and $709.8 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 69% and 68% of the total general liability reserves at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 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 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 $60.7 million and $59.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $12.8 million and $16.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, 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.

(a)	Includes net changes in amounts expected to be recovered from our insurance carriers, which are recorded in other assets (see below).

Estimates of anticipated recoveries of our costs under various insurance policies or from subcontractors or other third parties are recorded when recovery is considered probable. Such receivables are recorded in other assets and totaled $82.4 million and $118.4 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we wrote-off $12.6 million and $24.2 million, respectively, of insurance receivables in connection with the settlement of an arbitration with one of our carriers, pursuant to which we received the majority of the coverage under the policy.

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 $76.7 million and $98.1 million at June 30, 2020, respectively, and $70.0 million and $91.4 million at December 31, 2019, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded an additional $3.4 million and $13.0 million of lease liabilities under operating leases, respectively, and $1.0 million and $8.8 million in the comparable prior year periods. Payments on lease liabilities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $4.2 million and $10.1 million, respectively, and $5.7 million and $11.5 million in the comparable prior year periods.

Lease expense includes costs for leases with terms in excess of one year as well as short-term leases with terms of less than one year. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, our total lease expense was $8.8 million and $18.7 million, respectively, and $9.1 million and $17.9 million in the comparable prior year periods. Our total lease expense is inclusive of variable lease costs of $1.5 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $1.6 million and $3.2 million in the comparable prior year periods, as well as short-term lease costs of $1.8 million and $4.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $2.6 million and $4.8 million in the comparable prior year periods. Sublease income was de minimis.

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

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and various state and local orders, we instituted the following actions in March, which remained in place for some of the second quarter:


•	Placed restrictions on business travel for our employees and imposed mandatory quarantine periods for employees who traveled to areas impacted by the pandemic;


•	Closed our sales centers, model homes, and design centers to the general public and shifted to appointment-only interactions with our customers where permitted, following recommended distancing and other health and safety protocols when meeting in person with a customer;


•	Enhanced our virtual sales tools to give customers the ability to shop for a new home from their mobile device or personal computer;


•	Closed the public gathering spaces of our amenity centers as well as community pools and athletic facilities;


•	Modified our corporate and division office functions in order to allow all of our employees to work remotely except for essential minimum basic operations which could only be done in an office setting;


•	Eliminated non-emergency warranty work in our customers’ homes;


•	Modified much of our customer interactions around the mortgage origination and closing process to be virtual and minimize in-person interactions; and


•	Modified our construction operations to enforce enhanced safety protocols around social distancing, hygiene, and health screening.

The severity of these restrictions and the date we resumed more normal operations varied by market during the second quarter based on the reduction in restrictions under "shelter in place" orders and improvement in public health conditions. While all of the above-referenced steps were, and some remain, necessary and appropriate in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, they impacted our ability to operate our business in its ordinary and traditional course. Those restrictions, combined with a reduction in the availability, capacity, and efficiency of municipal and private services necessary to progress land development, homebuilding, mortgage loan originations, and home sales, which in each case has varied by market depending on the scope of the restrictions local authorities have established, tempered our sales pace and delayed home construction and deliveries in April and through parts of May.

As a result of the volatile macroeconomic environment, our reported results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of current market conditions. We began the year under positive demand conditions that resulted in net new orders increasing more than 30% for both January and February 2020 over the comparable prior year periods. However, demand declined significantly as a result of the pandemic, resulting in net new orders in March and April 2020 falling 11% and 53%, respectively, below the comparable prior periods.

As the pandemic spread and government and business responses expanded, we focused on protecting our liquidity and closely managing our cash flows, including through the following actions:


•	Delaying the acquisition of certain land parcels and slowing land development where practical;


•	Limiting our investment in house construction, including strictly limiting production of new unsold "speculative" homes, and contacting backlog customers to reconfirm status before beginning construction of sold homes;


•	As a precautionary measure, proactively drawing $700.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility in March;


•	Suspending the repurchase of shares under our share repurchase program; and


•	Reducing headcount and other overhead expenses.

Demand began to stabilize in May 2020 and then rebounded sharply in June, with net new orders increasing 50% in June 2020 over June 2019. This increase in June was realized across each of our primary buyer groups, but was particularly strong among first-time buyers. We believe the recovery in demand reflects a number of factors, including low mortgage interest rates, a restricted supply of existing home inventory, pent-up demand following the economic shutdown resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the appeal of single-family living in a new home, and a desire among some buyers to exit more densely populated urban centers. In addition to the improved demand, our construction and manufacturing operations were deemed essential services in all but a handful of markets and are now functioning at effectively full capacity. By effectively adjusting our business practices to the rapidly changing market dynamics, we were able to significantly improve our liquidity profile and increase our reported income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the comparable prior year periods. We also elected to repay the $700.0 million that had been borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility.

While our operations are now fully functioning, subject to regulated restrictions and safety constraints we have enacted in order to protect our employees, trade contractors, and customers, the current resurgence of the COVID pandemic in key areas of our operations may require us to implement restrictions on our operations. The potential magnitude or duration of the business and economic impacts from the unprecedented public health effort to contain and combat the spread of COVID-19 are uncertain and include, among other things, significant volatility in financial markets. In addition, we can provide no assurance as to whether the COVID-19 public health effort will be intensified to such an extent that we will not be able to conduct business operations in certain of our served markets or at all for an indefinite period. There are no reliable estimates of how long the COVID-19 pandemic will last or how severe it may be, and therefore, the unpredictability of the current economic and public health conditions will continue to evolve. However, we believe that the steps we have taken over the years to reduce risk to our operations and the measures we have taken recently to meet the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic position us well to continue to serve our customers, protect our employees and business partners, and deliver value for our stakeholders.

Consolidated Operations

The following is a summary of our operating results by line of business ($000's omitted, except per share data):

•

Homebuilding income before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased 34% and 28% compared with the same periods in 2019, respectively. The results include $60.7 million and $59.4 million of insurance reserve reversals for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to $12.8 million and $16.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as well as increased closings, higher gross margins, and improved overhead leverage. These increases were partially offset by severance expense of $10.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and a goodwill impairment charge totaling $20.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 (see Note 1).

•

Financial Services income before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased 141% and 113%, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2019 as the result of higher volumes, which largely resulted from increased homebuilding volumes combined with an improved capture rate, and improved margin per loan. Interest rates declined during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which led to enhanced margins contributing to improved capture rate and higher gains from sales of mortgages.


•	Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was 23.7% and 23.4%, respectively, compared to 24.9% and 24.1% for the same periods in 2019, respectively.

Home sale revenues

Home sale revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were higher than the prior year periods by $68.5 million and $340.1 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the 3% increase was attributable to a 6% increase in closings partially offset by a 3% decrease in average selling price. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the 8% increase was attributable to an 11% increase in closings partially offset by a 3% decrease in average selling price. The increase in closings was primarily the result of improved demand conditions that began in 2019 and continued into the first quarter of 2020, especially among first-time buyers, in part due to meaningfully lower mortgage interest rates. Beginning in March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic began to significantly impact the demand environment. Thus, the higher closings resulted from the higher backlog of orders that existed prior to the unfavorable impact of the pandemic. While order cancellations did increase beginning in March 2020, the vast majority of customers completed their home closings. The decrease in the average selling price is reflective of an increase in the mix of first-time buyer homes, which typically carry a lower sales price.

Home sale gross margins

Home sale gross margins were 23.9% and 23.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to 23.1% and 23.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Gross margins for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 remained strong relative to historical levels and reflect a combination of factors, including shifts in community mix. The pricing environment that existed in many of our markets in the second half of 2019 and the first half of 2020 allowed us to effectively manage pressure in house and land costs. Additionally, the low mortgage interest rate environment combined with limited supply of new and existing housing has contributed to our ability to maintain or increase pricing in many of our markets.

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 $6.9 million and $10.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to $3.3 million and $4.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

SG&A

SG&A as a percentage of home sale revenues was 8.0% and 9.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared with 10.8% and 11.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The gross dollar amount of our SG&A decreased $62.6 million, or 24%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019, and $51.6 million, or 10.1%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019. The decrease in gross dollars is primarily attributable to insurance reserve reversals of $60.7 million and $59.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $12.8 million and $16.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, partially offset by severance expense of $10.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as we took actions during the second quarter of 2020 to reduce overhead expenses.

Net new orders

Net new orders in units decreased 4% while net new orders in dollars decreased 7% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as compared with the prior year period. Net new orders in units and dollars increased 6% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared with the prior year period. The cancellation rate (canceled orders for the period divided by gross new orders for the period) was 19% and 16% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and 14% and 13% for the same periods in 2019. Ending backlog, which represents orders for homes that have not yet closed, increased 13% at June 30, 2020 compared with June 30, 2019. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, new order volume slowed dramatically in March and April 2020 leading to decreased volume during the three months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019. However, we experienced an increase in demand beginning in May and continuing through June 2020.

Homes in production

The following is a summary of our homes in production:



	June 30, 2020	June 30, 2019
Sold	8,825	8,528
Unsold
Under construction	1,626	2,316
Completed	495	610
	2,121	2,926
Models	1,279	1,235
Total	12,225	12,689

The number of homes in production at June 30, 2020 was 4% lower than at June 30, 2019. The decrease in homes under production is consistent with our decision to tightly manage production due to the significant decrease in demand that occurred in March and April 2020 as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the number of homes produced, particularly unsold, or "speculative", homes was significantly lower during the three months ended June 30, 2020 relative to the comparable prior year period. In response to improved demand, we have started to increase production of speculative homes while continuing to focus on building sold homes.

Controlled lots

The following is a summary of our lots under control at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:



	June 30, 2020						December 31, 2019

Developed (%)	43	%	22	%	33	%	39	%	22	%	32	%

Of our total controlled lots, 88,266 and 93,359 were owned and 74,885 and 64,903 were controlled under land option agreements at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. 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. The remaining purchase price under our land option agreements totaled $3.5 billion at June 30, 2020. 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 $301.4 million, of which $13.8 million is refundable at June 30, 2020.

Northeast

For the second quarter of 2020, Northeast home sale revenues decreased by 24% when compared with the prior year period due to a 26% decrease in closings partially offset by a 2% increase in average selling price. The decrease in closings occurred across all markets, primarily due to disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, especially with our operations located in Pennsylvania. The increase in average selling price was primarily attributable to Northeast Corridor. Income before income taxes decreased 28% primarily as a result of the aforementioned decrease in closings. Net new orders decreased across all markets except Mid-Atlantic.

Revenues were higher in most markets with Las Vegas benefiting from the American West acquisition that occurred in 2019. However, Northern California experienced significantly lower revenues, primarily due to disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic combined with the prior period completion, or near completion, of several high performing communities and an overall moderation of demand in that market.

Financial Services Operations

We conduct our Financial Services operations, which include mortgage banking, title, and insurance brokerage operations, through Pulte Mortgage and other subsidiaries. In originating mortgage loans, we initially use our own funds, including funds available pursuant to credit agreements 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 the 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 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

Total Financial Services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased 69% and 50%, respectively, compared with the comparable prior year periods as the result of increased homebuilding volumes combined with an improved capture rate and improved margin per loan. Interest rates declined during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, which led to enhanced margins contributing to improved capture rate and higher gains from sales of mortgages. Such gains offset a sharp reduction in values of mortgage servicing rights that occurred as the result of the increased risk to mortgage servicers related to potential forbearance claims and loan defaults, though mortgage servicing rights values improved in June 2020 as conditions moderated.

Income before income taxes

Income before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 increased 141% and 113%, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2019 as the result of higher revenues, improved margins, and improved expense leverage.

Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was 23.7% and 23.4%, respectively, compared to 24.9% and 24.1%, respectively, for the same periods in 2019. Each year's rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to state income tax expense.

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 June 30, 2020, we had unrestricted cash and equivalents of $1.7 billion, restricted cash balances of $39.3 million, and $755.2 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 and the actions we have taken as summarized in the Overview section, we believe that we have adequate liquidity to continue funding our operations for the foreseeable future.

Our ratio of debt to total capitalization, excluding our Financial Services debt, was 32.1% at June 30, 2020, as compared with 33.6% at December 31, 2019, which are within our targeted range of 30.0% to 40.0%.

Unsecured senior notes

We had $2.7 billion of unsecured senior notes outstanding at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, with no repayments due until 2021, when $426.0 million of unsecured senior notes are scheduled to mature.

Other notes payable

Revolving credit facility

We maintain a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") maturing in 2023 that has a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.0 billion and contains an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the capacity to $1.5 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 June 30, 2020. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be based on either the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or a base rate plus an applicable margin, as defined therein. As a precautionary measure during 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. As a result, we had no borrowings outstanding at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and $244.8 million and $262.8 million of letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, amounted to $755.2 million and $737.2 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Financial Services debt

Pulte Mortgage maintains a Repurchase Agreement with third party lenders that matures on July 30, 2020. The maximum aggregate commitment was $270.0 million at June 30, 2020 and continues through maturity. 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 $256.4 million and $326.6 million outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and was in compliance with all of its covenants and requirements as of such dates. While there can be no assurances that the Repurchase Agreement can be renewed or replaced on commercially reasonable terms upon its expiration, we believe we have adequate liquidity to meet Pulte Mortgage's anticipated financing needs.

Dividends and share repurchase program

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we declared cash dividends totaling $65.1 million and repurchased 2.8 million shares under our repurchase authorization totaling $95.7 million. The repurchase of shares was suspended in March 2020 as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic and continued through the second quarter of 2020. At June 30, 2020, we had remaining authorization to repurchase $429.9 million of common shares.

Cash flows

Operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $807.9 million, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $305.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. 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 six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to our net income of $552.3 million, which included various non-cash items, a seasonal $114.1 million decrease in residential mortgage loans available-for-sale, and a net decrease in inventories of $101.8 million. The decrease in inventories resulted from our deliberate efforts to reduce inventory spend, especially land acquisition and development spend, starting in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While a seasonal increase in house inventory partially offset the reduced land expenditures, the size of the seasonal increase was lower as we tightly managed production levels given the volatility in demand during March through June 2020.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $305.7 million. The positive cash flow from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to our net income of $407.8 million, supplemented by $51.5 million of deferred income taxes and a $117.0 million reduction in residential mortgage loans available-for-sale, partially offset by a net increase in inventories of $399.5 million resulting from ongoing land acquisition and development investment to support future growth, combined with a seasonal build of house inventory.

Investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $105.5 million, compared with net cash used in investing activities of $193.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Cash outflows in 2020 primarily reflected our acquisition of ICG in January 2020 for $83.3 million, as well as capital expenditures of $36.7 million related to our ongoing investments in new communities and certain information technology applications.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $193.4 million. These cash outflows primarily reflected our acquisition of American West in April 2019 for $163.7 million, as well as, capital expenditures of $29.6 million related to our ongoing investments in new communities and certain information technology applications.

Financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $256.1 million, compared with net cash used in financing activities of $586.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 resulted primarily from the repurchase of 2.8 million common shares for $95.7 million under our share repurchase authorization, repayments of debt totaling $10.1 million, payments of $65.3 million in cash dividends, and net repayments of $70.2 million for borrowings under the Repurchase Agreement related to a seasonal reduction in residential mortgage loans available-for-sale.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 resulted primarily from the repurchase of 3.5 million common shares for $108.5 million under our repurchase authorization, repayments of debt totaling $297.3 million, payments of $61.6 million in cash dividends, and net repayments of $114.2 million for borrowings under the Repurchase Agreement related to a seasonal reduction in residential mortgage loans available-for-sale.

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 during 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, our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not 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, 2019.

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 June 30, 2020, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $244.8 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 $1.3 billion at June 30, 2020, 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, 2020, these agreements had an aggregate remaining purchase price of $3.5 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.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with those 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, 2019, except for additional impairment sensitivity information reflected in the following:

Inventory and cost of revenues

Inventory is stated at cost unless the carrying value is determined to not be recoverable, in which case the affected inventory is written down to fair value. Cost includes land acquisition, land development, and home construction costs, including interest, real estate taxes, and certain direct and indirect overhead costs related to development and construction. For those communities for which construction and development activities have been idled, applicable interest and real estate taxes are expensed as incurred. Land acquisition and development costs are allocated to individual lots using an average lot cost determined based on the total expected land acquisition and development costs and the total expected home closings for the community. The specific identification method is used to accumulate home construction costs.

We capitalize interest cost into homebuilding inventories. Each layer of capitalized interest is amortized over a period that approximates the average life of communities under development. Interest expense is allocated over the period based on the timing of home closings.

Cost of revenues includes the construction cost, average lot cost, estimated warranty costs, amortization of capitalized interest, and closing costs applicable to the home. Sales commissions are classified within selling, general, and administrative expenses. The construction cost of the home includes amounts paid through the closing date of the home, plus an accrual for costs incurred but not yet paid, based on an analysis of budgeted construction costs. This accrual is reviewed for accuracy based on actual payments made after closing compared with the amount accrued, and adjustments are made if needed. Total community land acquisition and development costs are based on an analysis of budgeted costs compared with actual costs incurred to date and estimates to complete. The development cycles for our communities range from under one year to in excess of ten years for certain master planned communities. Adjustments to estimated total land acquisition and development costs for the community affect the amounts costed for the community’s remaining lots.

We test inventory for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the community may be less than its carrying amount. Such indicators include gross margins or sales paces significantly below expectations, construction costs or land development costs significantly in excess of budgeted amounts, significant delays or changes in the planned development for the community, and other known qualitative factors. Communities that demonstrate potential impairment indicators are tested for impairment by comparing the expected undiscounted cash flows for the community to its carrying value. For those communities whose carrying values exceed the expected undiscounted cash flows, we determine the fair value of the community and impairment charges are recorded if the fair value of the community’s inventory is less than its carrying value.

We generally determine the fair value of each community using a combination of discounted cash flow models and market comparable transactions, where available. These estimated cash flows are significantly impacted by estimates related to expected average selling prices, expected sales paces, expected land development and construction timelines, and anticipated land development, construction, and overhead costs. The assumptions used in the discounted cash flow models are specific to each community. Due to uncertainties in the estimation process, the significant volatility in demand for new housing, the long life cycles of many communities, and potential changes in our strategy related to certain communities, actual results could differ significantly from such estimates.

Generally, a community must have projected gross margin percentages in the mid single digits in order to potentially fail the undiscounted cash flow step and proceed to the fair value step. Our overall gross margin realized in the three months ended June 30, 2020 and our average gross margin in backlog at June 30, 2020 both exceeded 20%, and we have only a small minority of communities with gross margins below 10%. However, in the event of an extended economic slowdown that leads to moderate or significant decreases in the price of new homes in certain geographic or buyer submarkets, we could have a larger number of communities that begin to approach these levels such that more detailed impairment analyses would be necessary, and the resulting impairments could be material. Additionally, we have $301.4 million of deposits and pre-acquisition costs at June 30, 2020 related to option agreements to acquire additional land. In the event of an extended economic slowdown, we could elect to cancel a large portion of such land option agreements, which would generally result in the write-off of the related deposits and pre-acquisition costs.

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 June 30, 2020 ($000’s omitted):



	As of June 30, 2020 for the Years ending December 31,

Qualitative disclosure

There have been no material changes to the qualitative disclosure found in Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 with the exception of the potentially negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic as described within the below section.

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; the availability and cost of land and other raw materials used by us in our homebuilding 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 claims; our ability to generate sufficient cash flow in order to successfully implement our capital allocation priorities; required accounting changes; terrorist acts and other acts of war; the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial position and ability to continue our Homebuilding or Financial Services activities at normal levels or at all in impacted areas; the duration, effect and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic; the measures that governmental authorities take to address the COVID-19 pandemic which may precipitate or exacerbate one or more of the above-mentioned and/or other risks and significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period of time; and other factors of national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic, business and competitive nature. See PulteGroup's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, 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. PulteGroup undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or changes in PulteGroup's expectations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2020. Based upon, and as of the date of that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as set forth below, as of the date of this report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Our business has been materially and adversely disrupted by the present outbreak and worldwide spread of COVID-19 and could be materially and adversely disrupted by another epidemic or pandemic, or similar public threat, or fear of such an event, and the measures that international, federal, state and local governments, agencies, law enforcement and/or health authorities implement to address it.

An epidemic, pandemic, or similar serious public health issue, and the measures undertaken by governmental authorities to address it, could significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period, and thereby, and/or along with any associated economic and/or social instability or distress, have a significant adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. On March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency concerning the COVID-19 outbreak, and shortly thereafter many states and municipalities also declared public health emergencies. Along with these declarations, there have been extraordinary and wide-ranging actions taken by international, federal, state, and local public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 in regions across the United States and the world, including quarantines, and “shelter-in-place” orders and similar mandates for many individuals to substantially restrict daily activities and for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations.

In response to these steps and as we assessed the risk to our employees, trade partners and customers, in March, we instituted the following actions:


•	Placed restrictions on business travel for our employees and imposed mandatory quarantine periods for employees who traveled to areas impacted by the pandemic;


•	Closed our sales centers, model homes, and design centers to the general public and shifted to appointment-only interactions with our customers where permitted, following recommended distancing and other health and safety protocols when meeting in person with a customer;


•	Enhanced our virtual sales tools to give customers the ability to shop for a new home from their mobile device or personal computer;


•	Closed the public gathering spaces of our amenity centers as well as community pools and athletic facilities;


•	Modified our corporate and division office functions in order to allow all of our employees to work remotely except for essential minimum basic operations which could only be done in an office setting;


•	Eliminated non-emergency warranty work in our customers’ homes;


•	Modified much of our customer interactions around the mortgage origination and closing process to be virtual and minimize in-person interactions; and


•	Modified our construction operations to enforce enhanced safety protocols around social distancing, hygiene, and health screening.

The severity of these restrictions and the date we resumed more normal operations varied by market during the second quarter based on the reductions in restrictions under "shelter in place" orders and improvement in public health conditions. While all of the above-referenced steps were necessary and appropriate in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, they have impacted our ability to operate our business in its ordinary and traditional course. Those restrictions, combined with a reduction in the availability, capacity, and efficiency of municipal and private services necessary to progress land development, homebuilding, mortgage loan originations, and home sales, which in each case varied by market depending on the scope of the restrictions local authorities have established, tempered our sales pace and delayed home construction and deliveries in the latter part of March and through April.

While our operations are now fully functioning, subject to regulated restrictions and safety constraints we have enacted in order to protect our employees, trade contractors, and customers, the current resurgence of the COVID pandemic in key areas of our operations may require us to implement restrictions on our operations. The potential magnitude or duration of the business and economic impacts from the unprecedented public health effort to contain and combat the spread of COVID-19 are uncertain and could include, among other things, significant volatility in financial markets. We can provide no assurance as to whether the COVID-19 public health effort will be intensified to such an extent that we will not be able to conduct any business operations in certain of our served markets or at all for an indefinite period. In addition, efforts by local governments and agencies to lift restrictions on individuals’ daily activities and businesses’ normal operations may result in a resurgence of a pandemic or epidemic like COVID-19 and potentially prolong and intensify the impact of the crisis. There are no reliable estimates of how long the COVID-19 pandemic will last or how severe it may be, and therefore, the unpredictability of the current economic and public health conditions will continue to evolve.

Our business could also be negatively impacted over the medium-to-longer term if the disruptions related to COVID-19 decrease consumer confidence generally or with respect to purchasing a home; cause civil unrest; or precipitate a prolonged economic downturn and/or an extended rise in unemployment or tempering of wage growth, any of which could lower demand for our products, impair our ability to sell and build homes in a typical manner or at all, generate revenues and cash flows, and/or access the capital or lending markets (or significantly increase the costs of doing so), as may be necessary to sustain our business; increase the costs or decrease the supply of building materials or the availability of subcontractors and other talent, including as a result of infections or medically necessary or recommended self-quarantining, or governmental mandates to direct production activities to support public health efforts; and/or result in our recognizing charges in future periods, which may be material, for inventory impairments or land option contract abandonments, or both, related to our current inventory assets. The unprecedented uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, due to rapidly changing governmental directives, public health challenges and progress, macroeconomic consequences, and market reactions thereto, also makes it more challenging for our management to estimate the future performance of our business and develop strategies to generate growth or achieve our initial or any revised objectives for 2020.

Should the adverse impacts described above (or others that are currently unknown) occur, whether individually or collectively, we would expect to experience, among other things, increases in the cancellation rates for homes in our backlog, and decreases in our net orders, homes delivered, revenues, and profitability, as we experienced in the first few weeks of our second quarter. Such impacts could be material to our consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods. We could also be forced to reduce our average selling prices in order to generate consumer demand or in reaction to competitive pressures. In addition, should the COVID-19 public health effort intensify to such an extent that we cannot operate in most or all of our served

markets, we could generate few or no orders and deliver few, if any, homes during the applicable period, which could be prolonged. Along with a potential increase in cancellations of home purchase contracts, if there are prolonged government restrictions on our business and our customers, and/or an extended economic recession, we could be unable to produce revenues and cash flows sufficient to conduct our business; meet the terms of our covenants and other requirements under our debt obligations, and/or mortgages and land contracts due to land sellers and other loans; service our outstanding debt; or pay any dividends to our stockholders. Such circumstances could, among other things, exhaust our available liquidity (and ability to access liquidity sources) and/or trigger an acceleration to pay a significant portion or all of our then-outstanding debt obligations, which we may be unable to do.

While the economic impact of COVID-19 may be reduced by financial assistance under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act or other similar COVID-19 related federal and state programs, such programs may not have a positive impact on our business.
