Robert H. Schottenstein, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, "Despite the continued challenging housing market conditions and uneven demand environment, we had a solid quarter. We produced $140 million of pre-tax income representing 12% of revenue and delivered a third quarter record 2,296 homes. This resulted in a strong return on equity of 16%."

Mr. Schottenstein added, "While market conditions remain volatile, we are confident in the long-term fundamentals of the housing industry. Our financial position is excellent, highlighted by Moody's upgrade of our credit rating and the extension of our unsecured credit facility to 2030, with an increased borrowing capacity from $650 million to $900 million. We ended the quarter with zero borrowings under this facility, a homebuilding debt-to-capital ratio of 18%, and a net debt-to-capital ratio of negative 1%. With our strong balance sheet, diverse product offerings, and well-located communities, we are well positioned as we enter the fourth quarter of 2025."
