Karl K. Mistry, chief executive officer, stated: "In the second quarter, we once again successfully navigated a challenging market and produced strong results. We delivered 2,491 homes at an average price of $1,009,000 in the quarter, generating $2.5 billion of home sales revenues, or approximately $110 million above the midpoint of our guidance. Our adjusted gross margin was 26.2%, or 70 basis points above guidance, and our SG&A expense, as a percentage of home sales revenues, was 10.3% or 40 basis points better than guidance. In addition, orders were up 7% in units and 8% in dollars year-over-year. Based on our year-to-date performance, we are raising our full year guidance across all key home building metrics.

"Our strong results continue to reflect our unique position as the nation's leading builder of luxury homes, with operations spanning more than 60 markets across the country. The strength of our brand, broad geographic footprint, and wide variety of home offerings and price points, combined with our long history serving the luxury market and its affluent customers, continues to set us apart.

"In our second quarter, we repurchased $175 million of common stock, bringing our year-to-date total to $226 million, and we raised our quarterly dividend. In addition, we increased community count by 9% year-over-year and control sufficient land for continued 8% to 10% growth in 2027 and beyond. With a strong balance sheet, attractive margins and significant operating cash flows, we are well positioned to invest in the growth of our business and deliver strong returns to stockholders."
