Insight
Century is engaged in the development, design, construction, marketing and sale of single-family attached and detached homes in 17 states. In many of our projects, in addition to building homes, we are responsible for the entitlement and development of the underlying land. We build and sell homes under ourCentury Communities and Century Complete brands. Our Century Communities brand offers a wide range of buyer profiles including: entry-level, first and second time move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, and provides our homebuyers with the ability to personalize their homes through certain option and upgrade opportunities. Our Century Complete brand targets entry-level homebuyers, primarily sells homes through retail studios and the internet and generally provides no option or upgrade opportunities. We now have six states where both Century brands have a presence and we believe there are more opportunities for increased penetration within our over 45 high-growth markets to enable both brands to benefit from increased scale and enhanced operational efficiencies. Our homebuilding operations are organized into the following five reportable segments: West, Mountain,Texas , Southeast, and Century Complete. Our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries,Inspire Home Loans Inc. ,Parkway Title, LLC , andIHL Home Insurance Agency, LLC , which provide mortgage, title, and insurance services, respectively, primarily to our homebuyers have been identified as our Financial Services segment. Additionally, our wholly owned subsidiary,Century Living, LLC , is engaged in the development, construction and management of multi-family rental properties, primarily inColorado , with the intent to dispose of properties shortly after achieving stabilized rental operations.
While we offer homes that appeal to a broad range of entry-level, move-up, and lifestyle homebuyers, our offerings are heavily weighted towards providing affordable housing options in each of our homebuyer segments. Additionally, we prefer building move-in-ready homes over built-to-order homes, which we believe allows for a faster construction process, advantageous pricing with subcontractors, and shortened time period from home sale to home delivery, thus allowing us to more appropriately price the homes and deploy our capital. Of the 5,061 homes delivered during the first six months of 2022, approximately 77% of our deliveries were made to entry-level homebuyers and approximately 96% of homes delivered were built as move-in ready homes. During the second quarter of 2022 we experienced a moderation of sales pace across our markets resulting in a decrease of 28.4% in our net new home contracts as compared to the prior year period. This decrease in our sales pace was consistent with second quarter 2022 trends seen in the overall housing market, as increases in interest rates on mortgages, rising inflation, and macro-economic uncertainty caused demand for home sales to decrease from the historically strong market conditions experienced since the second quarter of 2020. We anticipate the homebuilding markets in each of our operating segments will continue to be tied to both the local economy and the macro-economic environment. We believe future demand for our homes is uncertain as future economic and market conditions are uncertain, in particular with respect to inflation; the impact of raising the federal funds interest rate by theFederal Reserve ; the extent to which and how long COVID-19 and related government directives, actions, and economic relief efforts will impact theU.S. economy, financial markets, credit and mortgage markets; consumer confidence; interest rates; availability and cost of mortgage loans to homebuyers; wage growth; household formations; levels of new and existing homes for sale; prevailing home prices, availability and cost of land, labor and construction materials; demographic trends; housing demand; and other factors, including those described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Specifically, the recent rise in interest rates increases the costs of owning a home and adversely affects the purchasing power of our customers. Increased interest rates also could decrease homebuyer confidence and hinder not only demand for our homes, but also our ability to realize our backlog. A decrease in demand for our homes or an increase in cancellations due to increased interest rates or otherwise would adversely affect our operating results in future periods, including our net sales, home deliveries, gross margin, origination volume of and revenues from our Financial Services segment, and net income. As a result, our past performance may not be indicative of our future results. 18

Despite the future macro-economic uncertainty, we believe we are well-positioned to benefit from the ongoing shortage of both new and resale homes available for purchase in our key markets and the favorable demographics that support the need for new housing. Subject to further deteriorating market conditions, we believe our operations are well-positioned for future growth as a result of the markets in which we operate, our product offerings which both span the home buying segment, and focus on affordable price points, and our current and future inventories of attractive land positions. As we have grown, we have continued to focus on maintaining an appropriate balance of home and land inventories in relation to anticipated future demand, as well as prudent leverage, and, as a result, we believe we are well positioned to continue to execute on our strategy in order to grow and optimize stockholder returns.
Operating results
During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , we generated$213.6 million and$402.4 million in income before income tax expense, respectively, and net income of$158.7 million , or$4.78 per diluted share, and$301.2 million , or$8.97 per diluted share, respectively, representing substantial increases as compared to the respective prior year periods, and resulting in a 33.7% return on equity on an annualized basis for the three months endedJune 30, 2022 . During the first six months of 2022, we paid cash dividends to our stockholders of$0.20 per share, and we also returned capital to our stockholders via share repurchases of 1.8 million shares for$98.3 million or a weighted average price of$54.46 per share. Our second quarter 2022 financial results for the second quarter are reflective of the strength of our markets during previous quarters when the homes were contracted for which allowed us to pass on higher costs through higher selling prices and thereby positively affecting our margins during the first six months of 2022. While we continued to experience labor and raw material shortages and municipal and utility delays in many of our markets, the severity of the shortages and delays moderated during the second quarter of 2022. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , we delivered 2,713 and 5,061 homes, respectively, with an average sales price of$418.2 thousand and$419.5 thousand , respectively. Average sales price increased 15.3% and 18.9% during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 as compared to the respective prior year period, driving homebuilding revenues of$1.1 billion and$2.1 billion , respectively, representing increases of 12.9% and 7.3% over the respective prior year period. The number of homes delivered represent decreases of 2.1% and 9.1%, respectively, as compared to the respective prior year period, which were primarily driven by the timing of new community openings. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we had a backlog of 4,767 homes, a 7.2% increase as compared toJune 30, 2021 , representing approximately$2.0 billion in sales value, and a 12.2% increase as compared toJune 30, 2021 . During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , we generated financial services revenue of$22.8 million and$49.1 million , respectively, representing decreases of 23.7% and 22.7% over the respective prior year period, driven by a reduced number of mortgages originated, as well as reduced gain on sale margins on loans sold to third parties. We ended the second quarter of 2022 with$141.0 million outstanding under our revolving line of credit,$78.0 million of cash and cash equivalents,$82.5 million of cash held in escrow, and a net homebuilding debt to net capital ratio of 33.6%. Additionally, we increased our land acquisition and development activities during the first six months of 2022 to bolster our lot pipeline and support future community growth, which resulted in 75,551 lots owned and controlled atJune 30, 2022 , a 15.2% increase as compared toJune 30, 2021 and a 5.4% decrease as compared toDecember 31, 2021 .

For both the three and six month comparisons, the increases in the number of homes delivered were driven by an increase in the number of open communities as compared to the prior year period and the average sales price increase were driven by the mix of deliveries within individual communities. Mountain During the three months endedJune 30, 2022 , our Mountain segment generated income before income tax expense of$51.5 million , a 7.7% decrease over the respective prior year period. This decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in home sales revenue of$13.8 million .

Revenue decreased during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , primarily driven by decreases of 25.0% and 25.0%, respectively, in the number of homes delivered, partially offset by increases of 27.0% and 28.0%, respectively, in the average sales price per home. For both the three and six month comparisons, the decreases in the number of homes delivered were driven by the timing of new community openings between the periods and the average sales price increases were driven by the mix of deliveries within individual communities. 21

Financial Services Our Financial Services segment originates mortgages for primarily our homebuyers, and as such, performance typically correlates to the number of homes delivered. Our Financial Services segment generated income before income tax of$8.6 million for the three months endedJune 30, 2022 , a 26.4% decrease over the prior year period. This decrease was primarily the result of a$7.1 million decrease in financial services revenue during the three months endedJune 30, 2022 compared to the prior year period, due to (1) a 31.5% decrease to 1,465 in the number of mortgages originated during the three months endedJune 30, 2022 , due in part to a decrease in originations related to refinancing, and (2) reduced gain on sale margins on loans sold to third parties period over period. Our Financial Services segment generated income before income tax of$19.8 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , a 26.9% decrease over the prior year period. This decrease was primarily the result of a$14.4 million decrease in financial services revenue during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 compared to the prior year period, due to (1) a 32.8% decrease to 2,985 in the number of mortgages originated during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , due in part to a decrease in originations related to refinancing, and (2) reduced gain on sale margins on loans sold to third parties period over period. 22

Residential Construction Gross Margin
(dollars in thousands) Homebuilding gross margin represents home sales revenues less cost of home sales revenues and inventory impairment and other. Our homebuilding gross margin percentage, which represents homebuilding gross margin divided by home sales revenues, increased during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 to 28.2%, as compared to 23.9% and 22.5%, respectively, for the same periods in 2021. This increase was driven by (1) our ability to increase sales price in excess of an increase in our labor and direct costs period over period, (2) benefits from our increased scale driving building efficiencies and streamlined production processes, and (3) the realization of less interest in cost of home sales revenue over the prior period. 23

(1)This non-GAAP financial measure should not be used as a substitute for the Company's operating results in accordance with GAAP. See the reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measure and other information under "-Non-GAAP Financial Measures." An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , excluding inventory impairment and other, and interest in cost of home sales revenues, our adjusted homebuilding gross margin percentage was 29.4%, as compared to 25.7% and 24.4%, respectively, for the same periods in 2021. We believe the above information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that inventory impairment, indebtedness and acquisitions (if applicable) have on our homebuilding gross margin and allows for comparability of our homebuilding gross margins to previous periods and our competitors. ? 24

These increases were primarily attributable to increases of$8.5 million and$17.4 million , respectively, in salaries and wages expense as compared to the same respective period in 2021 due to increased headcount, increased base pay due to market conditions, and increased incentive based compensation accruals, as well as increases in expenses in numerous areas to support our growth. The increases for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 were partially offset by decreases in internal and external commission expense of$2.7 million and$8.4 million , respectively. During the three months endedJune 30, 2022 , our selling, general, and administrative expense decreased 30 basis points as a percentage of home sales revenue as compared to the same period in 2021, and during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , our selling, general, and administrative expense increased slightly by 10 basis points as a percentage of home sales revenue as compared to the same period in 2021, which increase was partially offset by increased revenues on a partially fixed cost base.
income tax expense
At the end of each interim period we are required to estimate our annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year, and to use that rate to provide for income taxes for the current year-to-date reporting period. Our 2022 estimated annual effective tax rate, before discrete items, of 25.6% is driven by our blended federal and state statutory rate of 24.8%, and certain permanent differences between GAAP and tax, including disallowed deductions for executive compensation which increased our rate by 0.8%. For the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , our estimated annual rate of 25.6% was impacted by discrete items which had a net impact of decreasing our rate by 0.4%, including excess tax benefits for vested stock-based compensation and federal energy tax credits claimed on prior year home deliveries in excess of previous estimates. Our estimated annual rate for the six months endedJune 30, 2022 of 25.6% increased by 340 basis points as compared to our effective tax rate for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 of 22.2%. The increase in our estimated rate is driven by the expiration of the Energy Efficient Home Credit onDecember 31, 2021 .

For the three months endedJune 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded income tax expense of$55.0 million and$34.2 million , respectively.

Total assets increased to$3.8 billion as ofJune 30, 2022 as compared toDecember 31, 2021 , primarily as a result of overall growth of the Company and increased in investment in homebuilding inventory, partially offset by a decrease in Financial Services assets primarily related to a decrease in mortgage loans held for sale period over period. The decrease in our Corporate assets was driven by a decrease in our cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by increases related to Century Living.

The decrease in the number of controlled lots was driven by the termination of certain contracts in our markets that did not meet our investment criteria.

During the second quarter of 2022 we experienced a moderation of home sales pace across our markets as compared to prior periods. These decreases were primarily driven by the impact on demand for new homes of increasing interest rates, rising inflation, and macro-economic uncertainty, and to some extent, an increase in cancellations primarily due to interest rate increases. 26

During the second quarter of 2022, we experienced a moderation of sales pace across our markets compared to prior periods. The second quarter 2022 decrease in sales pace was consistent with trends seen in the overall housing market, as increases in interest rates on mortgages, rising inflation, and macro-economic uncertainty caused demand to decrease from the historically strong market conditions experienced since the second quarter of 2020.

Table of Contents ? Backlog reflects the number of homes, net of cancellations, for which we have entered into a sales contract with a customer but for which we have not yet delivered the home. AtJune 30, 2022 , we had 4,767 homes in backlog with a total value of$2.0 billion , which represents increases of 7.2% and 12.2%, respectively, as compared to 4,446 homes in backlog with a total value of$1.8 billion atJune 30, 2021 . The increase in backlog dollar value is primarily attributable to the increase in backlog units and a 4.6% increase in the average sales price of homes in backlog. Supplemental Guarantor Information Our 6.750% senior notes due 2027 (which we collectively refer to as our "2027 Notes") and our 3.875% senior notes due 2029 (which we collectively refer to as our "2029 Notes" and together with the 2027 Notes, the "Senior Notes") are our unsecured senior obligations and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by substantially all of our direct and indirect wholly-owned operating subsidiaries (which we refer to collectively as "Guarantors"). In addition, our former 5.875% senior notes due 2025 (which we collectively refer to as our "2025 Notes"), which were extinguished during the year endedDecember 31, 2021 , were our unsecured senior obligations and were fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors. Our subsidiaries associated with our Financial Services operations (referred to as "Non-Guarantors") do not guarantee the Senior Notes. The guarantees are senior unsecured obligations of the Guarantors that rank equal with all existing and future senior debt of the Guarantors and senior to all subordinated debt of the Guarantors. The guarantees are effectively subordinated to any secured debt of the Guarantors. As ofJune 30, 2022 ,Century Communities, Inc. had outstanding$1.0 billion in total principal amount of Senior Notes. Each of the indentures governing our Senior Notes provides that the guarantees of a Guarantor will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged: (1) upon any sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of all of the equity interests of such Guarantor after which the applicable Guarantor is no longer a "Restricted Subsidiary" (as defined in the respective indentures), which sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition does not constitute an "Asset Sale" (as defined in the respective indentures) or is made in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture; (2) upon any sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition (by merger, consolidation or otherwise) of all of the assets of such Guarantor, which sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition does not constitute an Asset Sale or is made in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture; provided, that after such sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition, such Guarantor is an "Immaterial Subsidiary" (as defined in the respective indentures); (3) unless a default has occurred and is continuing, upon the release or discharge of such Guarantor from its guarantee of any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company and the Guarantors so long as such Guarantor would not then otherwise be required to provide a guarantee pursuant to the applicable indenture; provided that if such Guarantor has incurred any indebtedness in reliance on its status as a Guarantor in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable Indenture, such Guarantor's obligations under such indebtedness, as the case may be, so incurred are satisfied in full and discharged or are otherwise permitted to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Guarantor) in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable Indenture; (4) upon the designation of such Guarantor as an "Unrestricted Subsidiary" (as defined in the respective Indentures), in accordance with the applicable indenture; (5) if the Company exercises its legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option under the applicable indenture or if the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors are discharged in compliance with applicable provisions of the applicable indenture, upon such exercise or discharge; or (6) in connection with the dissolution of such Guarantor under applicable law in accordance with the applicable indenture. The indenture governing our former 2025 Notes contained a similar provision. If a guarantor were to become a debtor in a case under the US Bankruptcy Code, a court may decline to enforce its guarantee of the Senior Notes. This may occur when, among other factors, it is found that the guarantor originally received less than fair consideration for the guarantee and the guarantor would be rendered insolvent by enforcement of the guarantee. On the basis of historical financial information, operating history and other factors, we believe that each of the guarantors, after giving effect to the issuance of its guarantee of the Senior Notes when the guarantee was issued, was not insolvent and did not and has not incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. The Company cannot predict, however, what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or that a court would agree with our conclusions in this regard. Only the 2027 Notes and the related guarantees are, and the former 2025 Notes and the related guarantees were, registered securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The offer and sale of the 2029 Notes and the related guarantees were not and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and instead were issued in reliance upon an exemption from such registration. Unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act, neither the 2029 Notes nor the related guarantees may be offered and sold only in transactions that are exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and the applicable securities laws of any other jurisdiction. As the guarantees for the 2027 Notes and the guarantees for the former 2025 Notes were made in connection with the issuance of the 2027 Notes and former 2025 Notes and exchange offers effected under the Securities Act inFebruary 2015 ,October 2015 andApril 2017 , the Guarantors' condensed supplemental financial information is presented in this report as if the guarantees existed during the periods presented pursuant to applicableSEC rules and guidance. If any Guarantors are released from the guarantees in future periods, 28

Critical accounting policies
Critical accounting estimates are those that we believe are both significant and require us to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because we need to estimate the effect of inherently uncertain matters. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experiences and various other factors that we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and the estimates included in our financial statements might be impacted if we used different assumptions or conditions. A summary of our critical accounting policies is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year endedDecember 31, 2021 , filed with theSEC onFebruary 3, 2022 , in the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Critical Accounting Policies." Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview Our liquidity, consisting of our cash and cash equivalents and cash held in escrow and Credit Facility availability, was$819.5 million as ofJune 30, 2022 , compared to$1.2 billion as ofDecember 31, 2021 . Our principal uses of capital for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 were our land purchases, land development, home construction, share repurchases, and the payment of routine liabilities. We increased our investment in homebuilding inventory during 2022, which resulted in 35,133 lots owned atJune 30, 2022 , a 6.9% increase as compared toDecember 31, 2021 . Cash flows for each of our communities depend on the stage in the development cycle and can differ substantially from reported earnings. Early stages of development or expansion require significant cash outlays for land acquisitions, entitlements and other approvals, and construction of model homes, roads, utilities, general landscaping and other amenities. Because these costs are a component of our inventory and not recognized in our consolidated statements of operations until a home closes, we incur significant cash outlays prior to our recognition of earnings. In the later stages of community development, cash inflows may significantly exceed earnings reported for financial statement purposes, as the cash outflow associated with home and land construction was previously incurred. From a liquidity standpoint, we are actively acquiring and developing lots in our markets to maintain and grow our lot supply and active selling communities. As we continue to expand our business, our cash outlays for land purchases and land development to grow our lot inventory may exceed our cash generated by operations. Under our shelf registration statement, which we filed with theSEC onJuly 1, 2021 and was automatically effective upon filing, we have the ability to access the debt and equity capital markets in registered transactions from time to time and as needed as part of our ongoing financing strategy and subject to market conditions. InAugust 2021 , we filed a prospectus supplement to offer up to$100.0 million under the shelf registration statement under our at-the-market facility described below.
Short-term liquidity and capital resources
We use funds generated by operations, available borrowings under our Credit Facility, and proceeds from issuances of debt or equity, including our current at-the-market facility, to fund our short term working capital obligations and fund our purchases of land, as well as land development, home construction activities, and other cash needs. Our Financial Services operations use funds generated from operations, and availability under our mortgage repurchase facilities to finance its operations including originations of mortgage loans to our homebuyers. Our Century Living operations use excess cash from our operations as well as project specific secured financing to fund development of multi-family projects. We believe that we will be able to fund our current liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months with our cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and cash expected to be available from our revolving line of credit or through accessing debt or equity capital, as needed or appropriate, although no assurance can be provided that such additional debt or equity capital will be available or on acceptable terms, especially in light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the macro-economy, and market conditions at the time. While the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to evolve, we believe we are well positioned from a cash and liquidity standpoint to not only operate in an uncertain environment, but also continue to grow with the market and pursue other ways to properly deploy capital to enhance returns, which may include taking advantage of strategic opportunities as they arise. Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources Beyond the next twelve months, we believe that our principal uses of capital will be land and inventory purchases and other expenditures to invest in our future growth, as well as principal and interest payments on our long-term debt obligations. We believe that we will be able to fund our long-term liquidity needs with cash generated from operations and cash expected to be available from our revolving 30

line of credit or through accessing debt or equity capital, as needed or appropriate, although no assurance can be provided that such additional debt or equity capital will be available. To the extent these sources of capital are insufficient to meet our needs, we may also conduct additional public or private offerings of our securities, refinance debt, or dispose of certain assets to fund our operating activities and capital needs.
Material cash needs
In the normal course of business, we enter into contracts and commitments that obligate us to make payments in the future. These obligations impact our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , there were no material changes to the contractual obligations we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year endedDecember 31, 2021 that was filed with theSEC onFebruary 3, 2022 . In the ordinary course of business, we enter into land purchase contracts in order to procure lots for the construction of our homes. We are subject to customary obligations associated with entering into contracts for the purchase of land and improved lots. Purchase and option contracts for the purchase of land enable us to defer acquiring portions of properties owned by third parties until we have determined whether to exercise our option, which may serve to reduce our financial risks associated with long-term land holdings. These purchase contracts typically require a cash deposit, and the purchase of properties under these contracts is generally contingent upon satisfaction of certain requirements, including obtaining applicable property and development entitlements. We also utilize option contracts with land sellers and others as a method of acquiring land in staged takedowns, to help us manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings, and to reduce the use of funds from our corporate financing sources. Option contracts generally require payment by us of a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at pre-determined prices. Our obligations with respect to purchase contracts and option contracts are generally limited to the forfeiture of the related non-refundable cash deposits. As ofJune 30, 2022 , we had outstanding purchase contracts and option contracts for 40,418 lots, totaling approximately$1.7 billion , and we had$66.8 million of deposits for land contracts, of which$36.5 million were non-refundable cash deposits pertaining to land contracts. Subject to the terms of the outstanding contracts continuing to meet our investment criteria, we currently anticipate performing on the majority of the purchase and option contracts during the next twelve to eighteen months, with performance on the remaining purchase and option contacts occurring in future periods. Our performance, including the timing and amount of purchase, if any, under these outstanding purchase and option contracts is subject to change and dependent on future market conditions. Our utilization of land option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into option takedown arrangements, the availability of capital to financial intermediaries 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.

During the same periods in 2021, we incurred interest expense on the Repurchase Facilities of$0.8 million and$1.4 million , respectively. Interest expense on the Repurchase Facilities is included in financial services costs on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Stock Repurchase Program OnNovember 6, 2018 , our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, under which we may repurchase up to 4.5 million shares of our outstanding common stock. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. The actual manner, timing, amount and value of repurchases under the stock repurchase program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock, trading volume, other capital management objectives and opportunities, applicable legal requirements, and general market and economic conditions. We intend to finance any stock repurchases through available cash and our Credit Facility. Repurchases also may be made under a trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would permit shares to be repurchased when we otherwise may be precluded from doing so because of self-imposed trading blackout periods or other regulatory restrictions. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and may be extended, suspended or discontinued by our Board of Directors at any time without notice at our discretion. All shares of common stock repurchased under the program will be cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2022 , an aggregate of 0.8 million and 1.8 million shares, respectively, of our common stock were repurchased for a total purchase price of approximately$35.9 million and$98.3 million , respectively, and a weighted average price of$45.42 and$54.46 per share, respectively. During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 , we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. The maximum number of shares available to be purchased under the stock repurchase program as ofJune 30, 2022 was 2,008,994 shares.

Cash Flows- Six Months EndedJune 30, 2022 Compared to the Six Months EndedJune 30, 2021 For the six months endedJune 30, 2022 and 2021, the comparison of cash flows is as follows: ?Our primary sources of cash flows from operations are from the sale of single-family attached and detached homes and mortgages. Our primary uses of cash flows from operations are the acquisition of land and expenditures associated with the construction of our single-family attached and detached homes and the origination of mortgages held for sale. Net cash used in operating activities was$102.9 million during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of$143.4 million during 2021. The increase in cash used in operations is primarily a result of increased investment in our homebuilding inventories for the six months endedJune 30, 2022 as compared to the six months endedJune 30, 2021 , partially offset by a decrease in originations of mortgage loans held for sale and a$81.6 million increase in net income during six months endedJune 30, 2022 as compared to the six months endedJune 30, 2021 . ?Net cash used in investing activities increased to$25.3 million during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , compared to$4.4 million used during the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily related to expenditures related to the development, construction, and management of multi-family rental properties by our wholly owned subsidiary Century Living. ?Net cash used in financing activities decreased to$96.3 million during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 , compared to net cash used by financing activities of$112.5 million during the same period in 2021. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to a$141.0 million cash inflow from borrowings under our revolving line of credit for the six months endedJune 30, 2022 compared to no revolving line of credit borrowings outstanding for the six months endedJune 30, 2021 partially offset by (1) a$23.6 million increase in net payments on the Repurchase Facilities (2) a$98.3 million increase in repurchases of our common stock and (3) an$8.2 million increase in dividend payments during the six months endedJune 30, 2022 compared to the six months endedJune 30, 2021 . As ofJune 30, 2022 , our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was$97.8 million . ? 34

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this Form 10-Q, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, net homebuilding debt to net capital, and adjusted net earnings per diluted common shares. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented to provide investors additional information to facilitate the comparison of our past and present operations. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they are used to evaluate our performance on a comparable year-over-year basis. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP measures and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive or standard set of accounting rules or principles. Accordingly, the calculation of our non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of other companies using the same or similar names limiting, to some extent, the usefulness of such measures for comparison purposes. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our financial results as determined in accordance with GAAP. These measures should only be used to evaluate our financial results in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Accordingly, we qualify our use of non-GAAP financial information in a statement when non-GAAP financial information is presented. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA The following table presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months endedJune 31, 2022 and 2021. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure we use as a supplemental measure in evaluating operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as consolidated net income before (i) income tax expense, (ii) interest in cost of home sales revenues, (iii) other interest expense, (iv) depreciation and amortization expense, (v) loss on debt extinguishment, and (vi) inventory impairment and other. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, and items considered to be non-recurring. Accordingly, our management believes that this measurement is useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, consolidated net income in accordance with GAAP as a measure of performance. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our Adjusted EBITDA is limited as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Net residential construction debt at
The following table presents our ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We calculate this by dividing net homebuilding debt (homebuilding debt less cash and cash equivalents, and cash held in escrow) by net capital (net homebuilding debt plus total stockholders' equity). Homebuilding debt is our total debt minus our outstanding borrowings under our Construction Loan Agreement and our Repurchase Facilities. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the ratio of debt to total capital. We believe the ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital is a relevant and useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in our operations and as an indicator of our ability to obtain external financing.

Adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted earnings per share
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share (which we refer to as "Adjusted EPS") are non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating our operating results and understanding our operating trends without the effect of certain non-recurring items. We believe excluding certain non-recurring items provides more comparable assessment of our financial results from period to period. We define Adjusted Net Income as consolidated net income before (i) income tax expense, (ii) inventory impairment and other (iii) restructuring costs, and (iv) loss on debt extinguishment, less adjusted income tax expense, calculated using the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate after discrete items for the applicable period. Adjusted Diluted EPS is calculated by excluding the effect of loss on inventory impairment and other, restructuring costs and loss on debt extinguishment from the calculation of reported EPS.
