The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 11, 2026 and our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview and Outlook
Our key financial and operating metrics are home deliveries, home closings revenue, average sales price of homes delivered, and net new home orders, which refers to sales contracts executed reduced by the number of sales contracts canceled during the relevant period, homebuilding gross margin, and incentives on homes closed as a percentage of residential units revenue. Our results for each key financial and operating metric, as compared to the same period in 2025, are provided below:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Six Months Ended June 30, 2026
Home deliveries Increased by 0.5% Increased by 0.2%
Home closings revenue Decreased by 11.5% Decreased by 9.4%
Average sales price of homes delivered Decreased by 11.9% Decreased by 9.5%
Net new home orders Increased by 18.8% Increased by 5.1%
Homebuilding gross margin percentage Decreased by 1.5% Decreased by 2.3%
Incentives on homes closed as a percentage of residential units revenue Increased by 2.3% Increased by 3.5%
Our home deliveries were substantially in line in the second quarter of 2026 year over year, while average sales prices decreased primarily as a result of elevated discounts and incentives. Homebuilding gross margins decreased from 31.3% to 29.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to higher incentives and product mix.

New homes delivered 1,047 1,042 5 0.5 %
Average sales price of homes delivered $ 450.3 $ 511.1 $ (60.8) (11.9) %
Residential units revenue decreased 11.4% and new homes delivered were substantially in line with the prior year period. The 11.9% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered during the three months ended June 30, 2026, is due to increased incentives and product mix.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
New Home Orders and Backlog
The table below represents new home orders and backlog related to our builder operations segments, excluding mechanic’s lien contracts (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended June 30,
2026 2025 Change %
Net new home orders 1,079 908 171 18.8 %
Revenue from net new home orders $ 488,627 $ 454,900 $ 33,727 7.4 %
Average selling price of net new home orders $ 452.9 $ 501.0 $ (48.1) (9.6) %
Cancellation rate 7.8 % 9.9 % (2.1) % (21.2) %
Absorption rate per average active selling community per quarter 10.0 8.9 1.1 12.4 %
Average active selling communities 108 102 6 5.9 %
Active selling communities at end of period 106 102 4 3.9 %
Backlog revenue $ 387,376 $ 507,137 $ (119,761) (23.6) %
Backlog units 681 730 (49) (6.7) %
Average sales price of backlog $ 568.8 $ 694.7 $ (125.9) (18.1) %
Net new home orders increased 18.8% to 1,079 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 908 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, while average active selling communities increased by 5.9% to 108 communities. Revenue from net new home orders increased $33.7 million, or 7.4%, to $488.6 million, partially offset by a 9.6% decrease in the average selling price of net new home orders to $452.9 thousand, driven primarily by a higher mix of orders from Trophy Signature Homes, which operates at a lower price point relative to our other builders and targets first-time homebuyers. The 12.4% increase in the absorption rate per average active selling community, from 8.9 to 10.0 net new home orders per community per quarter was driven by higher levels of net new home orders from Trophy Signature Homes and a lower cancellation rate.
Our cancellation rate, which refers to sales contracts canceled divided by sales contracts executed during the relevant period, was 7.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 9.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Our cancellation rate has remained in a historically low range, under 10.0% since December 31, 2022.
Backlog units refer to homes under sales contracts that have not yet closed at the end of the respective period, and absorption rate refers to the rate at which net new home orders are contracted per average active selling community during the respective period. Sales contracts may be canceled prior to closing for a number of reasons, including the inability of the homebuyer to obtain suitable mortgage financing. Accordingly, backlog may not be indicative of our future revenue.
Backlog revenue decreased by 23.6% to $387.4 million as of June 30, 2026, compared to $507.1 million as of June 30, 2025, driven by a 6.7% decrease in backlog units to 681 homes and a 18.1% decrease in the average sales price of backlog to $568.8 thousand, reflecting higher sales from Trophy Signature Homes in addition to higher incentives and discounts offered to sustain orders.
Residential Units Gross Margin

Residential units gross margin $ 140,578 29.8 % $ 166,453 31.3 %
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, residential units revenue decreased $60.5 million or 11.4% while cost of residential units decreased by $34.7 million, or 9.5%, compared to the same period in the previous year. Residential units gross margin declined by 150 bps to 29.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from 31.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in residential units gross margin is attributable to higher incentives and discounts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
The table below represents the components of selling, general and administrative expenses (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended June 30, As Percentage of Segment Revenue
2026 2025 2026 2025
Builder operations $ 52,299 $ 56,724 11.1 % 10.7 %
Corporate, other and unallocated expense 2,134 475 0.5 % 0.1 %
Net builder operations 54,433 57,199 11.5 % 10.7 %
Land development (37) 238
Total selling, general and administrative expenses $ 54,396 $ 57,437 11.3 % 10.7 %
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased by 0.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, mainly due to lower revenue, partially offset by increased salaries and share-based compensation.
Builder Operations
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for builder operations increased 0.4% mainly due to the decline in residential units revenues. Builder operation expenditures include salary expenses, commissions, corporate allocations, and community costs such as advertising and marketing expenses, rent, professional fees, and non-capitalized property taxes.
Corporate, Other and Unallocated
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the corporate, other and unallocated non-operating segment for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $2.1 million, compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was due to higher share-based compensation during the three months ended June 30, 2026. Corporate, other and unallocated expenses generally include capitalized overhead adjustments that are not allocated to builder operations segments.
Financial Services
Commencing on January 1, 2026, we began reporting on our Financial Services Operations, which were previously reported within the Corporate segment, as a separate financial services segment. Our Financial Services operations include mortgage banking, title, and insurance agency operations through our wholly owned subsidiaries. The majority of the loans originated by our wholly owned subsidiary, GRBK Mortgage, are sold in the secondary mortgage market within a short period of time after origination, generally within 30 days. We also sell the servicing rights for the loans we originate through fixed price servicing sales contracts to reduce the risks and costs inherent in servicing loans. This strategy results in owning loans and related servicing rights for only a short period of time.
Operating as a captive business model primarily targeted to support our Builder operations, the business levels of our Financial Services operations are highly correlated to homebuilding, as the customers to our homes continue to account for substantially all of its business. We believe that our mortgage capture rate, which represents loan originations from our Builder operations as a percentage of total loan opportunities from our Builder operations, excluding cash closings, is an important metric in evaluating the effectiveness of our captive financial services business model. The following tables present selected financial information for our Financial Services operations (in thousands):

Financial services revenues increased $5.9 million, or 93.9%, to $12.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by mortgage revenues, which grew from $1.9 million to $7.9 million, as total loans funded increased 256.8% to 521 loans with total origination principal of $196.5 million, compared to 146 loans and $31.4 million in the prior year period. Our mortgage capture rate increased to 66% from 53.1%, reflecting growth in our captive mortgage business. Financial services expenses increased $3.3 million, or 97.1%, primarily due to higher costs associated with increased mortgage origination volume. As a result, income before income taxes increased $2.7 million, or 90.2%, to $5.6 million.
Equity in Income of Unconsolidated Entities
Equity in income of unconsolidated entities increased to $0.6 million, or 19.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Other Income, Net
Other income (loss), net, was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $(1.2) million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The change was driven by a decrease in pursuit costs during the three months ended June 30, 2026.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $20.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $23.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in income tax expense is mainly due to lower taxable income for the three months ended June 30, 2026. See Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion on the Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Active selling communities at end of period 106 102 4 3.9 %
Net new home orders increased 5.1% over the prior year period mainly due to a 1.9% increase in average selling communities. In addition, the absorption rate per average active selling community per quarter increased 3.1% to 10.0 net new home orders per community, compared to 9.7 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by increased absorption by Trophy Signature Homes.
Revenue from net new home orders decreased 6.0% to $970.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,032.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to a 10.6% decrease in the average selling price of net new home orders to $458.5 thousand, reflecting higher sales from Trophy Signature Homes, our first-time homebuyer or entry-level builder, in addition to increased incentives and discounts offered to sustain sales pace.
Our cancellation rate, which refers to sales contracts canceled divided by sales contracts executed during the relevant period, was 7.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 7.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $131.6 million and $154.6 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, respectively. In addition, as of June 30, 2026, we had $330.0 million of available capacity under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, with no amounts outstanding. Combined with unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $131.6 million, our total available liquidity was approximately $461.6 million. Our historical cash management strategy includes redeploying net cash from the sale of home inventory to acquire and develop land and lots that represent opportunities to generate desired margins and returns, and using cash to make additional investments in business acquisitions, joint ventures, share repurchases or other strategic activities.
Our principal uses of capital for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were home construction, land purchases, land development, repayments of debt, operating expenses, share repurchases, and payment of routine liabilities. Historically, we have used funds generated by operations and available borrowings to meet our short-term working capital requirements. We remain focused on generating positive margins in our homebuilding operations and acquiring desirable land positions in order to maintain a strong balance sheet and remain poised for continued growth.
Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the community’s stage in the development cycle. Early stages of development or expansion require significant cash outlays for land acquisitions, entitlements and other approvals, roads, utilities, general landscaping and other amenities, and home construction. These costs are a component of our inventory and are not recognized in our statement of income until a home closes. In the later stages of community life cycle, cash inflows may significantly exceed earnings reported for financial statement purposes, as the cash outflows associated with home construction and land development primarily occurred in prior periods.
Our homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio, which is calculated as the sum of borrowings on lines of credit, the senior unsecured notes, and notes payable, net of debt issuance costs (“total debt”), divided by the total capitalization, which equals the sum of Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders’ equity and total debt, was approximately 11.2% as of June 30, 2026.
31
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Additionally, as of June 30, 2026, our net homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, remained low at 6.1%. It is our intent to prudently employ leverage to continue to invest in our land acquisition, development and homebuilding activities. We target a homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio of up to approximately 20%, which we expect will provide us with significant additional growth capital.
Reconciliation of a Non-GAAP Financial Measure
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we utilize a financial measure of net homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio that is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC. Net homebuilding debt to total capitalization is calculated as total homebuilding debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided by the sum of total Green Brick Partners, Inc. stockholders’ equity and total homebuilding debt less cash and cash equivalents. We present this measure because we believe it is useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company’s financing structure. We also believe this measure facilitates the comparison of our financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because this measure is not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The closest GAAP financial measure to the net homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio is the debt to total capitalization ratio. The following table represents a reconciliation of the net homebuilding debt to total capitalization ratio as of June 30, 2026 (dollars in thousands):

Debt Instruments
Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility – On December 10, 2025, the Company entered into the Thirteenth Amendment to this Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility. The Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility was amended (i) to reduce the SOFR spread and base rate spread, (ii) to allow the Company to request a revolving credit advance using Daily SOFR (as defined in the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility) and (iii) for other administrative changes. The total commitments remain at $330.0 million. The maturity of all commitments under the facility have been extended to December 14, 2028. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had no amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility.
Senior Unsecured Notes - As of June 30, 2026, we had four series of senior unsecured notes outstanding that were each issued pursuant to a note purchase agreement. The aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes outstanding was $237.2 million as of June 30, 2026 compared to $262.0 million as of December 31, 2025, net of issuance costs.
•In August 2019, we issued $75.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2026 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 4.0% and is payable quarterly. The final principal payment of $50.0 million is due on August 8, 2026.

•In February 2021, we issued $125.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2028 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.25% and is payable quarterly. The remaining principal on the 2028 Notes is due in increments of $25.0 million annually on February 25 in each of 2027 and 2028.
•In December 2021, we issued $100.0 million of senior unsecured notes (the “2029 Notes”). Interest accrues at an annual rate of 3.25% and is payable quarterly. A required principal prepayment of $30.0 million is due on December 28, 2028. The remaining unpaid principal balance is due on December 28, 2029.
The senior unsecured notes allow optional prepayment of a “make-whole” premium that fluctuates depending on market interest rates. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears.
Our debt instruments require us to maintain specific financial covenants, each of which we were in compliance with as of June 30, 2026. Specifically, under the most restrictive covenants, we are required to maintain the following:
•a minimum interest coverage (consolidated EBITDA to interest incurred) of no less than 2.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2026, our interest coverage on a last 12 months’ basis was 33.13 to 1.0;
•a Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of no less than approximately $1,236.2 million. As of June 30, 2026, our Consolidated Tangible Net Worth was $1,974.7 million; and
•a maximum debt to total capitalization rolling average ratio of no more than 40.0%. As of June 30, 2026, we had a rolling average ratio of 12.1%.
As of June 30, 2026, we believe that our cash on hand, capacity available under our lines of credit and cash flows from operations for the next twelve months will be sufficient to (i) service our outstanding debt during the next twelve months and (ii) fund our operations. For additional information on our lines of credit, senior unsecured notes, and notes payable, refer to Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements located in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Warehouse Facilities
GRBK Mortgage, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is party to warehouse facilities to fund its origination of mortgage loans (the “Warehouse Facilities”) as follows (in thousands):
Outstanding Balance As of
Maturity Date Maximum Aggregate Commitment June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025
January 29, 2027 $ 40,000 $ — $ 16,828
January 31, 2027 60,000 31,002 —
December 15, 2027 40,000 3,630 29,570
$ 140,000 $ 34,632 $ 46,398
Our borrowings and repayments on the warehouse lines of credit are directly related to the origination and sale of mortgage loans held for sale. As such, the gross activity in the warehouse lines of credit during the period substantially reconciles to the net change in mortgage loans held for sale, as reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and discussed in Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The Warehouse Facilities provide for an aggregate uncommitted amount of $140.0 million. The Warehouse Facilities are (i) secured by the underlying mortgage loans and bear interest at a variable rate based on SOFR plus a margin ranging from 1.4% to 2% and (ii) guaranteed by Green Brick. The facilities are subject to annual renewal and contain customary covenants and conditions regarding minimum net worth, leverage, profitability and liquidity. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Warehouse Facilities as of June 30, 2026.
Under the Warehouse Facilities, banks purchase a participation interest in individual mortgage loans, with GRBK Mortgage providing the remainder of the principal of the mortgage, typically up to 2% depending on the loan product. The mortgage loans, with the servicing rights, are then sold, typically within 30 days, to a third party investor and the bank is repaid its participation interest plus interest and the remainder is remitted to GRBK Mortgage. If a third party investor has not purchased the mortgage loan within the anticipated timeframes then GRBK Mortgage is required to repurchase the mortgage loan for the full amount of the participation interest plus interest.
Preferred Equity
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 we had 2,000,000 Depositary Shares issued and outstanding, each representing 1/1000 of a share of our 5.75% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). We will pay cumulative cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock, when and as declared by the Board, at the rate of 5.75% of the $25,000 liquidation preference per share. Dividends are payable quarterly in arrears. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we paid dividends of $1.4 million on the Series A Preferred Stock. On July 23, 2026, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.359 per depositary share on the Series A Preferred Stock. The dividend is payable on September 15, 2026 to stockholders of record as of September 1, 2026.
Registration Statements
In September 2023, we filed with the SEC an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 which enables us to issue shares of common stock, preferred stock or debt securities either separately or represented by warrants, or depositary shares as well as units that include any of these securities. Under the rules governing shelf registration statements, we will file a prospectus supplement and advise the SEC of the amount and type of securities each time we issue securities under this registration statement. We have not issued any securities under this registration statement through the date of this filing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
Land and Lot Option Contracts
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land purchase contracts to acquire lots for the construction of our homes in the future. We are subject to customary obligations associated with such contracts. These purchase contracts typically require an earnest money deposit, and the purchase of properties under these contracts is generally contingent upon satisfaction of certain requirements, including obtaining applicable property and development entitlements. As of June 30, 2026, the Company did not participate in any land banking arrangements, excluding joint ventures.
We also utilize option contracts with lot sellers as a method of acquiring lots in staged takedowns, which are the schedules that dictate when lots must be purchased to help manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings, and to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources. Lot option contracts generally require us to pay a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at pre-determined prices that typically include escalations in lot prices over time.
Our utilization of lot option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into these arrangements, the availability of capital to finance the development of optioned lots, general housing market conditions and local market dynamics. Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions.
We generally have the right, at our discretion, to terminate our obligations under both purchase contracts and option contracts by forfeiting the earnest money deposit with no further financial responsibility to the seller.
As of June 30, 2026, we had earnest money deposits of $12.0 million at risk associated with contracts to purchase raw land and finished lots representing 10,180 total lots past feasibility studies with an aggregate purchase price of approximately $450.7 million.
Seasonality
The homebuilding industry experiences seasonal fluctuations in quarterly operating results and capital requirements. We typically experience the highest new home order activity in spring and summer, although this activity is highly dependent on the number of active selling communities, timing of new community openings, interest rates and other market factors. Since it typically takes four to seven months to construct a new home, we normally deliver more homes in the second half of the year as spring and summer home orders are delivered. Because of this seasonality, home starts, construction costs and related cash outflows have historically been highest in the second and third quarters, and the majority of cash receipts from home deliveries occur typically during the second half of the year.
