NVR, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars and shares in thousands)

(unaudited)

1 .

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NVR, Inc. (“NVR” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries and certain other entities in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary (see Notes 2 and 3 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements).  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  Because the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP, they should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals except as otherwise noted herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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.

In 2016, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest , which requires that debt issuance costs be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability.  The adoption of this standard resulted in the reclassification of the unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Company’s 3.95% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Senior Notes”) from the homebuilding “Other assets” line item to the homebuilding “Senior notes” line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.  See Note 12 for further discussion of the Company’s Senior Notes and the related unamortized debt issuance costs.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, comprehensive income equaled net income; therefore, a separate statement of comprehensive income is not included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.

Variable Interest Entities

Fixed Price Finished Lot Purchase Agreements (“Lot Purchase Agreements”)

NVR generally does not engage in the land development business.  Instead, the Company typically acquires finished building lots at market prices from various development entities under Lot Purchase Agreements.  The Lot Purchase Agreements require deposits that may be forfeited if NVR fails to perform under the Lot Purchase Agreements.  The deposits required under the Lot Purchase Agreements are in the form of cash or letters of credit in varying amounts, and typically range up to 10% of the aggregate purchase price of the finished lots.

NVR believes this lot acquisition strategy reduces the financial requirements and risks associated with direct land ownership and land development.  NVR may, at its option, choose for any reason and at any time not to perform under these Lot Purchase Agreements by delivering notice of its intent not to acquire the finished lots under contract.  NVR’s sole legal obligation and economic loss for failure to perform under these Lot Purchase Agreements is limited to the amount of the deposit pursuant to the liquidated damage provisions contained within the Lot Purchase Agreements.  In other words, if NVR does not perform under a Lot Purchase Agreement, NVR loses only its deposit.  None of the creditors of any of the development entities with which NVR enters Lot Purchase Agreements have recourse to the general credit of NVR. NVR generally does not have any specific performance obligations to purchase a certain number or any of the lots, nor does NVR guarantee completion of the development by the developer or guarantee any of the developers’ financial or other liabilities.

NVR is not involved in the design or creation of the development entities from which the Company purchases lots under Lot Purchase Agreements. The developer’s equity holders have the power to direct 100% of the operating activities of the development entity.  NVR has no voting rights in any of the development entities.  The sole purpose of the

4


NVR, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars and shares in thousands)

(unaudited)

development entity’s activities is to generate positive cash flow returns for the equity holders.  Further, NVR does not share in any of the profit or loss generated by the project’s development.  The profits and losses are passed directly to the developer’s equity holders.

The deposit placed by NVR pursuant to the Lot Purchase Agreement is deemed to be a variable interest in the respective development entities.  Those development entities are deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”).  Therefore, the development entities with which NVR enters into Lot Purchase Agreements, including the joint venture limited liability corporations discussed below, are evaluated for possible consolidation by NVR.  An enterprise must consolidate a VIE when that enterprise has a controlling financial interest in the VIE.  An enterprise is deemed to have a controlling financial interest if it has i) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE or the rights to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE.

NVR believes the activities that most significantly impact a development entity’s economic performance are the operating activities of the entity.  Unless and until a development entity completes finished building lots through the development process to be able to sell, the process of which the development entity’s equity investors bear the full risk, the entity does not earn any revenues.  The operating development activities are managed solely by the development entity’s equity investors.

The development entities with which NVR contracts to buy finished lots typically select the respective projects, obtain the necessary zoning approvals, obtain the financing required with no support or guarantees from NVR, select who will purchase the finished lots and at what price, and manage the completion of the infrastructure improvements, all for the purpose of generating a cash flow return to the development entity’s equity holders and all independent of NVR.  The Company possesses no more than limited protective legal rights through the Lot Purchase Agreement in the specific finished lots that it is purchasing, and NVR possesses no participative rights in the development entities.  Accordingly, NVR does not have the power to direct the activities of a developer that most significantly impact the developer’s economic performance.  For this reason, NVR has concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of the development entities with which the Company enters into Lot Purchase Agreements, and therefore, NVR does not consolidate any of these VIEs.

As of June 30, 2016, NVR controlled approximately 71,100 lots under Lot Purchase Agreements with third parties through deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $399,100 and $2,000, respectively.  As noted above, NVR’s sole legal obligation and economic loss for failure to perform under these Lot Purchase Agreements is limited to the amount of the deposit pursuant to the liquidated damage provisions contained in the Lot Purchase Agreements and, in very limited circumstances, specific performance obligations.

In addition, NVR has certain properties under contract with land owners that are expected to yield approximately 12,200 lots, which are not included in the number of total lots controlled.  Some of these properties may require rezoning or other approvals to achieve the expected yield. These properties are controlled with deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $15,500 and $350, respectively, as of June 30, 2016, of which approximately $3,100 is refundable if NVR does not perform under the contract.  NVR generally expects to assign the raw land contracts to a land developer and simultaneously enter into a Lot Purchase Agreement with the assignee if the project is determined to be feasible.

NVR’s total risk of loss related to contract land deposits as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was as follows:

As of both June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was committed to purchase 10 finished lots under specific performance obligations.

3.

Joint Ventures

On a limited basis, NVR obtains finished lots using joint venture limited liability corporations (“JVs”). The JVs are typically structured such that NVR is a non-controlling member and is at risk only for the amount the Company has invested, or has committed to invest, in addition to any deposits placed under Lot Purchase Agreements with the joint venture. NVR is not a borrower, guarantor or obligor on any debt of the JVs, as applicable. The Company enters into Lot Purchase Agreements to purchase lots from these JVs, and as a result has a variable interest in these JVs.

At June 30, 2016, the Company had an aggregate investment totaling approximately $53,100 in six JVs that are expected to produce approximately 7,700 finished lots, of which approximately 4,400 lots were controlled by the Company and the remaining approximately 3,300 lots were either under contract with unrelated parties or not currently under contract. In addition, NVR had additional funding commitments totaling approximately $6,600 in the aggregate to three of the JVs at June 30, 2016. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of five of the JVs because either NVR and the other JV partner share power or the other JV partner has the controlling financial interest. The aggregate investment in unconsolidated JVs was approximately $52,800 and $59,800 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and is reported in the “Other assets” line item on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the remaining JV, NVR has concluded that it is the primary beneficiary because the Company has the controlling financial interest in the JV. The condensed balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 of the consolidated JV were as follows:

The Company recognizes income from the JVs as a reduction to the lot cost of the lots purchased from the respective JVs when the homes are settled and is based on the expected total profitability and the total number of lots expected to be produced by the respective JVs. Distributions received from the unconsolidated JVs are allocated between return of capital and distributions of earnings based on the ratio of capital contributed by NVR to the total expected returns for the respective JVs, and are classified within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as cash flows from investing activities and operating activities, respectively.

Land Under Development

On a limited basis, NVR directly acquires raw land parcels already zoned for its intended use to develop into finished lots.  Land under development includes the land acquisition costs, direct improvement costs, capitalized interest where applicable, and real estate taxes.

In February 2016, the Company purchased a land parcel which included both land under development and finished lots for approximately $150,000. In June 2016, the Company sold th at land parcel to a developer for an amount which approximated NVR’s net investment in the property as of the sale date . In conjunction with the sale, the Company also entered into Lot Purchase Agreements with the developer for the option to purchase a p ortion of the finished lots expected to be developed from the parcel. Prior to the sale of the parcel , during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company sold 22 finished lots for approximately $ 6 , 3 00 and 56 finished lots for approximately $1 6,800, respectively, which were under contract with unrelated parties.

As of June 30, 2016, NVR directly owned a total of four separate raw land parcels with a carrying value of $58,751 that are expected to produce approximately 800 finished lots. The Company also has additional funding commitments of approximately $16,000 under a joint development agreement related to one parcel, a portion of which the Company expects will be offset by development credits of approximately $9,200.

None of the raw parcels had any indicators of impairment as of June 30, 2016. Based on market conditions, NVR may on a limited basis continue to directly acquire additional raw parcels to develop into finished lots.

5.

Capitalized Interest

The Company capitalizes interest costs to land under development during the active development of finished lots.  In addition, the Company capitalizes interest costs to its joint venture investments while the investments are considered qualified assets pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification 835-20, Interest . Capitalized interest is transferred to sold or unsold inventory as the development of finished lots is completed, then charged to cost of sales upon the Company’s settlement of homes and the respective lots.  Interest incurred in excess of the interest capitalizable based on the level of qualified assets is expensed in the period incurred. NVR’s interest costs incurred, capitalized, expensed and charged to cost of sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:

Excess Reorganization Value, Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets (“excess reorganization value”) is an indefinite-lived intangible asset that was created upon NVR’s emergence from bankruptcy on September 30, 1993.  Based on the allocation of the reorganization value, the portion of the reorganization value which was not attributed to specific tangible or intangible assets has been reported as excess reorganization value, which is treated similarly to goodwill.  Excess reorganization value is not subject to amortization.  Rather, excess reorganization value is subject to an impairment assessment on an annual basis or more frequently if changes in events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred.  Because excess reorganization value was based on the reorganization value of NVR’s entire enterprise upon emergence from bankruptcy, the impairment assessment is conducted on an enterprise basis based on the comparison of NVR’s total equity to the market value of NVR’s outstanding publicly-traded common stock.

As of June 30, 2016, goodwill and net finite-lived intangible assets totaled $441 and $2,850, respectively.  The remaining finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average life of three years.  Accumulated amortization as of June 30, 2016 was $5,928.  Amortization expense related to the finite-lived intangible assets was $346 and $691 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company completed the annual impairment assessment of the excess reorganization value and goodwill during the first quarter of 2016 and determined that there was no impairment.

Product Warranties

The Company establishes warranty and product liability reserves (“warranty reserve”) to provide for estimated future expenses as a result of construction and product defects, product recalls and litigation incidental to NVR’s homebuilding business.  Liability estimates are determined based on management’s judgment, considering such factors as historical experience, the likely current cost of corrective action, manufacturers’ and subcontractors’ participation in sharing the cost of corrective action, consultations with third party experts such as engineers, and discussions with the Company’s general counsel and outside counsel retained to handle specific product liability cases.  The following table reflects the changes in the Company’s warranty reserve during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

Segment Disclosures

The following disclosure includes four homebuilding reportable segments that aggregate geographically the Company’s homebuilding operating segments, and the mortgage banking operations presented as a single reportable segment.  The homebuilding reportable segments are comprised of operating divisions in the following geographic areas:

Mid Atlantic:

Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware and Washington, D.C.

North East:

New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania

Mid East:

New York, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois

South East:

North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Tennessee

Homebuilding profit before tax includes all revenues and income generated from the sale of homes, less the cost of homes sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and a corporate capital allocation charge.  The corporate capital allocation charge is eliminated in consolidation and is based on the segment’s average net assets employed.  The corporate capital allocation charged to the operating segment allows the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to determine whether the operating segment’s results are providing the desired rate of return after covering the Company’s cost of capital.  In addition, certain assets, including goodwill and intangible assets and consolidation adjustments as discussed further below, are not allocated to the operating segments as those assets are neither included in the operating segment’s corporate capital allocation charge, nor in the CODM’s evaluation of the operating segment’s performance.  The Company records charges on contract land deposits when it is determined that it is probable that recovery of the deposit is impaired.  For segment reporting purposes, impairments on contract land deposits are charged to the operating segment upon the determination to terminate a Lot Purchase Agreement with the developer, or to restructure a Lot Purchase Agreement resulting in the forfeiture of the deposit.  Mortgage banking profit before tax consists of revenues generated from mortgage financing, title insurance and closing services, less the costs of such services and general and administrative costs.  Mortgage banking operations are not charged a corporate capital allocation charge.

In addition to the corporate capital allocation and contract land deposit impairments discussed above, the other reconciling items between segment profit and consolidated profit before tax include unallocated corporate overhead (including all management incentive compensation), equity-based compensation expense, consolidation adjustments and external corporate interest expense.  NVR’s overhead functions, such as accounting, treasury and human resources, are centrally performed and the costs are not allocated to the Company’s operating segments.  Consolidation adjustments

consist of such items necessary to convert the reportable segments’ results, whi ch are predominantly maintained on a cash basis, to a full accrual basis for external financial statement presentation purposes, and are not allocated to the Company’s operating segments.  External corporate interest expense primarily consists of interest charges on the Company’s Senior Notes and is not charged to the operating segments because the charges are included in the corporate capital allocation discussed above.

Following are tables presenting segment revenues, profit and assets, with reconciliations to the amounts reported for the consolidated enterprise, where applicable:

Fair Value

GAAP assigns a fair value hierarchy to the inputs used to measure fair value.  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.  Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs.

Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value of NVR’s Senior Notes as of June 30, 2016 was $636,000.  The estimated fair value is based on recent market prices of similar transactions, which is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.  The carrying value of the Senior Notes was $596,151 at June 30, 2016.  Except as otherwise noted below, NVR believes that insignificant differences exist between the carrying value and the fair value of its financial instruments, which consist of cash equivalents, due to their short term nature.

Derivative Instruments and Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

In the normal course of business, NVR’s wholly-owned mortgage subsidiary, NVR Mortgage Finance, Inc. (“NVRM”), enters into contractual commitments to extend credit to buyers of single-family homes with fixed expiration dates.  The commitments become effective when the borrowers "lock-in" a specified interest rate within time frames established by NVRM.  All mortgagors are evaluated for credit worthiness prior to the extension of the commitment.  Market risk arises if interest rates move adversely between the time of the "lock-in" of rates by the borrower and the sale

(unaudited)

date of the loan to a broker/dealer.  To mitigate the effect of the interest rate risk inherent in providing rate lock commitments to borrowers, NVRM ente rs into optional or mandatory delivery forward sale contracts to sell whole loans and mortgage-backed securities to broker/dealers.  The forward sales contracts lock in an interest rate and price for the sale of loans similar to the specific rate lock comm itments.  NVRM does not engage in speculative or trading derivative activities.  Both the rate lock commitments to borrowers and the forward sale contracts to broker/dealers are undesignated derivatives and, accordingly, are marked to fair value through ea rnings.  At June 30, 2016, there were contractual commitments to extend credit to borrowers aggregating $ 524 , 455 and open forward delivery contracts aggregating $ 718 , 451 , which hedge both the rate lock loan commitments and closed loans held for sale.

The fair value of NVRM’s rate lock commitments to borrowers and the related input levels include, as applicable:

i)

the assumed gain/loss of the expected resultant loan sale (Level 2);

ii)

the effects of interest rate movements between the date of the rate lock and the balance sheet date (Level 2); and

iii)

the value of the servicing rights associated with the loan (Level 2).

The assumed gain/loss considers the excess servicing to be received or buydown fees to be paid upon securitization of the loan.  The excess servicing and buydown fees are calculated pursuant to contractual terms with investors.  To calculate the effects of interest rate movements, NVRM utilizes applicable published mortgage-backed security prices, and multiplies the price movement between the rate lock date and the balance sheet date by the notional loan commitment amount.  NVRM sells all of its loans on a servicing released basis, and receives a servicing released premium upon sale.  Thus, the value of the servicing rights, which averaged 100 basis points of the loan amount as of June 30, 2016, is included in the fair value measurement and is based upon contractual terms with investors and varies depending on the loan type.  NVRM assumes an approximate 13% fallout rate when measuring the fair value of rate lock commitments.  Fallout is defined as locked loan commitments for which NVRM does not close a mortgage loan and is based on historical experience.

The fair value of NVRM’s forward sales contracts to broker/dealers solely considers the market price movement of the same type of security between the trade date and the balance sheet date (Level 2).  The market price changes are multiplied by the notional amount of the forward sales contracts to measure the fair value.

Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, net of deferred origination costs, until sold.  Fair value is measured using Level 2 inputs.  The fair value of loans held for sale of $275,145 included on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet has been increased by $4,789 from the aggregate principal balance of $270,356.

The undesignated derivative instruments are included on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet, as of June 30, 2016, as follows:

Debt

As of June 30, 2016, the Company had Senior Notes outstanding with a principal balance of $600,000.  The Senior Notes mature on September 15, 2022 and bear interest at 3.95%, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15. The Senior Notes were issued at a discount to yield 3.97% and have been reflected net of the unamortized discount in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, following the Company’s adoption of ASU 2015-03 as of January 1, 2016, as further discussed in Note 1, the Senior Notes have been reflected net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $3,158 and $3,413 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

NVRM provides for its mortgage origination and other operating activities using cash generated from operations, borrowings from its parent company, NVR, as well as a revolving mortgage repurchase agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”), which is non-recourse to NVR.  The Repurchase Agreement provides for loan purchases up to $150,000, subject to certain sub-limits, and provides for an incremental commitment pursuant to which NVRM may from time to time request increases in the total commitment available under the Repurchase Agreement by up to $50,000 in the aggregate. Amounts outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement are collateralized by the Company’s mortgage loans held for sale. The Repurchase Agreement was renewed in July 2016 with materially consistent terms and conditions and expires on July 26, 2017. At June 30, 2016, there were no borrowing base limitations reducing the amount available under the Repurchase Agreement. There was no debt outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement at June 30, 2016.

On July 15, 2016, NVR entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Book Runner, and the other lenders party thereto, which provides for aggregate revolving loan commitments of $200,000 (the “Facility”).  Proceeds of the borrowings under the Facility will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.  Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may request increases of up to $300,000 to the Facility in the form of revolving loan commitments or term loans to the extent that new or existing lenders agree to provide additional revolving loan or term loan commitments. The Credit Agreement provides for a $100,000 sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $25,000 sublimit for a swing line commitment.

The Credit Agreement contains various representations and affirmative and negative covenants that are generally customary for credit facilities of this type.  Such covenants include, among others, the following financial maintenance covenants: (i) minimum consolidated tangible net worth, (ii) minimum interest coverage ratio or minimum liquidity and (iii) a maximum leverage ratio. The negative covenants include, among others, certain limitations on liens, investments and fundamental changes.  The Credit Agreement termination date is July 15, 2021.

(unaudited)

In June 2010, the Company received a Request for Information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) pursuant to Section 308 of the Clean Water Act. The request sought information about storm water discharge practices in connection w ith homebuilding projects completed or underway by the Company in New York and New Jersey. The Company cooperated with this request, and provided information to the EPA. The Company was subsequently informed by the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ ”) that the EPA forwarded the information on the matter to the DOJ, and the DOJ requested that the Company meet with the government to discuss the status of the case. Meetings took place in January 2012, August 2012 and November 2014 with representatives f rom both the EPA and DOJ. The Company has continued discussions with the EPA and DOJ and is presently engaged in settlement discussions with them. Any settlement is expected to include injunctive relief and payment of a civil penalty. Although there can be no assurance that a settlement will be reached, the Company has recorded a liability associated with an estimated civil penalty amount on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of both June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The Company and its subsidiaries are also involved in various other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, and based on advice of legal counsel, this litigation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. Legal costs incurred in connection with outstanding litigation are expensed as incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers.  The standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective.  In July 2015, the FASB delayed the standard’s effective date for one year.  The standard is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2018.  Early adoption is permitted for the annual period beginning January 1, 2017.  The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method.  The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40):  Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The standard requires an entity’s management to evaluate at each annual and interim reporting period whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued and to provide related footnote disclosures.  The standard is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2017. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810) – Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis .  The standard changes the manner in which reporting entities evaluate consolidation requirements of certain legal entities.  The standard became effective for the Company on January 1, 2016.  The adoption of this standard did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In July 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory .  The standard simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value.  The amendments in the standard do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method.  The standard is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2017.  The amendments in the standard are to be applied prospectively with early adoption permitted.  The Company does not believe that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which requires lessees to recognize most leases on-balance sheet with a liability equal to the present value of lease payments over the lease term and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset over the lease term.  Lessees will recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current GAAP. The standard is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2019.  The Company

believes that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on both assets and liabilities presented on the balance sheet, and is further evaluating the impact of its adoption.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718):  Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The standard simplifies several aspects of share-based payment accounting, including the recognition of income tax effects, statutory tax withholding requirements and accounting for forfeitures.  The standard is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2017, and early adoption is permitted.  The Company believes that the standard will likely have a material effect on net income and earnings per share presented on its consolidated financial statements, and is further evaluating the impact of its adoption.

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) , which significantly changes the way impairment of financial assets is recognized.  The standard will require immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of many financial assets, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses on loans and other financial instruments.  The standard’s provisions will be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings as of the effective date.  The standard is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2020.  Early adoption is permitted for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2019.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

Overview

Business

Our primary business is the construction and sale of single-family detached homes, townhomes and condominium buildings, all of which are primarily constructed on a pre-sold basis.  To fully serve customers of our homebuilding operations, we also operate a mortgage banking and title services business.  We primarily conduct our operations in mature markets. Additionally, we generally grow our business through market share gains in our existing markets and by expanding into markets contiguous to our current active markets.  Our four homebuilding reportable segments consist of the following regions:

Mid Atlantic:

Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware and Washington, D.C.

North East:

New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania

Mid East:

New York, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois

South East:

North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Tennessee

Our lot acquisition strategy is predicated upon avoiding the financial requirements and risks associated with direct land ownership and development.  We generally do not engage in land development (see discussion below of our land development activities).  Instead, we typically acquire finished lots at market prices from various third party land developers pursuant to fixed price finished lot purchase agreements (“Lot Purchase Agreements”).  These Lot Purchase Agreements require deposits, typically ranging up to 10% of the aggregate purchase price of the finished lots, in the form of cash or letters of credit that may be forfeited if we fail to perform under the Lot Purchase Agreement.  This strategy has allowed us to maximize inventory turnover, which we believe enables us to minimize market risk and to operate with less capital, thereby enhancing rates of return on equity and total capital.

16


In addition to constructing homes primarily on a pre-sold basis and utilizing what we believe is a conservative lot acquisition strategy, we focus on obtaining and maintaining a leading market position in each market we serve.  This strategy allows us to gain valuable efficiencies and competitive advant ages in our markets, which we believe contributes to minimizing the adverse effects of regional economic cycles and provides growth opportunities within these markets.  Our continued success is contingent upon our ability to control an adequate supply of f inished lots on which to build.

In certain specific strategic circumstances we deviate from our historical lot acquisition strategy and engage in joint venture arrangements with land developers or directly acquire raw ground already zoned for its intended use for development.  Once we acquire control of raw ground, we determine whether to sell the raw parcel to a developer and enter into a Lot Purchase Agreement with the developer to purchase the finished lots or to hire a developer to develop the land on our behalf.  While joint venture arrangements and direct land development activity are not our preferred method of acquiring finished building lots, we may enter into additional transactions in the future on a limited basis where there exists a compelling strategic or prudent financial reason to do so.  We expect, however, to continue to acquire substantially all our finished lot inventory using Lot Purchase Agreements with forfeitable deposits.

As of June 30, 2016, we controlled lots as described below.

Lot Purchase Agreements

We controlled approximately 71,100 lots under Lot Purchase Agreements with third parties through deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $399,100 and $2,000, respectively. Included in the number of controlled lots are approximately 6,000 lots for which we have recorded a contract land deposit impairment reserve of approximately $39,600 as of June 30, 2016.

Joint Venture Limited Liability Corporations (“JVs”)

We had an aggregate investment totaling approximately $53,100 in six JVs, expected to produce approximately 7,700 lots. Of the lots to be produced by the JVs, approximately 4,400 lots were controlled by us and approximately 3,300 were either under contract with unrelated parties or currently not under contract.

Land Under Development

We directly owned four separate raw land parcels, zoned for their intended use, with a current cost basis, including development costs, of approximately $58,800 that we intend to develop into approximately 800 finished lots.  We had additional funding commitments of approximately $16,000 under a joint development agreement related to one parcel, a portion of which we expect will be offset by development credits of approximately $9,200.  During the second quarter of 2016, we sold a land parcel we had acquired in February 2016 to a developer for an amount which approximated our net investment in the property as of the sale date.  In conjunction with the sale, we entered into Lot Purchase Agreements with the developer for the option to purchase a portion of the finished lots expected to be developed from the parcel.

See Notes 2, 3 and 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information regarding Lot Purchase Agreements, JVs and land under development, respectively.

Raw Land Purchase Agreements

In addition to the lots we currently control as discussed above, we have certain properties under contract with land owners that are expected to yield approximately 12,200 lots.  Some of these properties may require rezoning or other approvals to achieve the expected yield.  These properties are controlled with deposits in cash and letters of credit totaling approximately $15,500 and $350, respectively, as of June 30, 2016, of which approximately $3,100 is refundable if we do not perform under the contract.  We generally expect to assign the raw land contracts to a land developer and simultaneously enter into a Lot Purchase Agreement with the assignee if the project is determined to be feasible.

Current Business Environment and Key Financial Results

The first six months of 2016 continued the trend experienced in 2015 of steady new home demand.  However, new home prices continued to be constrained by an increased number of new home communities in many markets.  The housing market also continues to face challenges from tight mortgage underwriting standards.

Our consolidated revenues for the second quarter of 2016 totaled $1,388,183, a 12% increase from the second quarter of 2015.  Net income for second quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $91,676, a decrease of 2% when compared to the second quarter of 2015, and diluted earnings per share of $22.01 was flat when compared to the second quarter of

17


2015. Our homebuilding gross profit m argin percentage decreased to 17.3 % in the second quarter of 2016 from 19.2 % in the same period in 2015. New orders, net of cancella tions (“New Orders”) increased 14 % in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015, while the average sales price for New Orders in the second quarter of 2016 of $ 383.9 increased 1% compa red to the second quarter of 2015.

We believe that a continuation of the housing market recovery is dependent upon a sustained overall economic recovery, driven by continued improvements in job and wage growth and household formation.  We expect to continue to face gross margin pressure due to higher land and construction costs, as well as increased competition associated with an increase in the number of new home communities in our markets.  We believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities that may arise from future economic and homebuilding market volatility due to the strength of our balance sheet.

Consolidated Homebuilding - Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

Homebuilding revenues increased 12% for the second quarter of 2016 from the same period in 2015, as a result of a 13% increase in the number of units settled quarter over quarter.  The increase in the number of units settled is primarily attributable to a 7% higher backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2016 compared to backlog entering the second quarter of 2015, coupled with a higher backlog turnover rate in the second quarter of 2016.

Gross profit margin percentage in the second quarter of 2016 decreased 190 basis points to 17.3% compared to the second quarter of 2015, due to a 2% decrease in the average settlement price and higher construction and selling related costs in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period of 2015. In addition, gross profit margin during the second quarter of 2015 was favorably impacted by the recognition of approximately $5,800, or 47 basis points of revenue, from the recovery of contract land deposits previously determined to be uncollectible.  Contract land deposit recoveries in the second quarter of 2016 were approximately $100.

The number of New Orders and average sales price of New Orders increased 14% and 1%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015.  New Orders increased in each of our market segments due to more favorable market conditions in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in the second quarter of 2016 increased 8% compared to the same period in 2015 but as a percentage of revenue decreased to 7.3% in 2016 from 7.6% in 2015.  SG&A expenses were higher due to increased personnel costs of approximately $4,400 attributable to higher headcount, and increased marketing costs of approximately $2,900.

18


Consolidated Homebuilding - Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

Homebuilding revenues increased 15% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from the same period in 2015, as a result of a 15% increase in the number of units settled period over period.  The increase in the number of units settled is primarily attributable to a 14% higher backlog unit balance entering 2016 compared to backlog entering 2015.

Gross profit margin percentage in the first six months of 2016 decreased 86 basis points to 17.4% compared to 18.2% in 2015, due to a 1% decrease in the average settlement price and higher construction and selling related costs in 2016 compared to 2015. In addition, there was a 21 basis point decrease in contract land deposit recoveries year over year.

The number of New Orders and the average sales price of New Orders increased 10% and 1%, respectively, in the first six months of 2016 when compared to the first six months of 2015.  New Orders increased in each of our market segments due to more favorable market conditions in the first six months of 2016 compared to the first six months of 2015.

SG&A expenses in the first six months of 2016 increased 4% compared to the first six months of 2015 but as a percentage of revenue decreased to 8.0% in 2016 from 8.8% in 2015.  SG&A expenses were higher due to increased personnel costs of approximately $4,500 attributable to higher headcount, and increased marketing costs of approximately $5,200.

Backlog units and dollars were 8,103 units and $3,122,534, respectively, as of June 30, 2016 compared to 7,488 units and $2,854,613, respectively, as of June 30, 2015.  The 8% increase in backlog units was primarily attributable to a 14% higher backlog unit balance entering 2016 compared to backlog entering 2015, and the aforementioned 10% increase in New Orders, offset partially by a higher backlog turnover rate year over year. Backlog dollars were favorably impacted by the increase in backlog units.

Backlog, which represents homes sold but not yet settled with the customer, may be impacted by customer cancellations for various reasons that are beyond our control, such as failure to obtain mortgage financing, inability to sell an existing home, job loss, or a variety of other reasons.  In any period, a portion of the cancellations that we experience are related to new sales that occurred during the same period, and a portion are related to sales that occurred in prior periods and therefore appeared in the opening backlog for the current period.  Expressed as the total of all cancellations during the period as a percentage of gross sales during the period, our cancellation rate was approximately 14.0% and 13.0% in the first six months of 2016 and 2015, respectively.  During the most recent four quarters, approximately 6% of a reporting quarter’s opening backlog cancelled during the fiscal quarter.  We can provide no assurance that our historical cancellation rates are indicative of the actual cancellation rate that may occur during the remainder of 2016 or future years.

The backlog turnover rate is impacted by various factors, including, but not limited to, changes in New Order activity, internal production capacity, external subcontractor capacity and other external factors over which we do not exercise control.

Reportable Segments

Homebuilding profit before tax includes all revenues and income generated from the sale of homes, less the cost of homes sold, SG&A expenses, and a corporate capital allocation charge determined at the corporate headquarters.  The corporate capital allocation charge eliminates in consolidation and is based on the segment’s average net assets employed.  The corporate capital allocation charged to the operating segment allows the Chief Operating Decision Maker to determine whether the operating segment’s results are providing the desired rate of return after covering our cost of capital. We record charges on contract land deposits when we determine that it is probable that recovery of the deposit is impaired.  For segment reporting purposes, impairments on contract land deposits are generally charged to the operating segment upon the determination to terminate a Lot Purchase Agreement with the developer or to restructure a Lot Purchase Agreement resulting in the forfeiture of the deposit.  We evaluate our entire net contract land deposit portfolio for impairment each quarter.  For additional information regarding our contract land deposit impairment analysis, see the Critical Accounting Policies section within this Management Discussion and Analysis.  For presentation purposes below, the contract land deposit reserve at June 30, 2016 and 2015 has been allocated to the respective year’s reportable segments to show contract land deposits on a net basis.  The net contract land deposit balances below also include approximately $2,000 and $3,600 at June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, of letters of credit issued as deposits in lieu of cash. The following tables summarize certain homebuilding operating activity by reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

Mid Atlantic

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The Mid Atlantic segment had an approximate $21,300, or 25%, decrease in segment profit in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015 despite an increase in segment revenues of approximately $26,000, or 3% quarter over quarter.  Segment revenues were higher due to a 5% increase in the number of units settled offset partially by a 2% decrease in the average settlement price. The increase in the number of units settled was favorably impacted by a 3% higher backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, coupled with a higher backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The Mid Atlantic segment’s gross profit margin percentage decreased to

22


16.6% in 2016 from 19 . 3 % in 2015 .  Gross profit margin and segment profit were negatively impacted by the 2% decrease in average settlement price and higher construction costs quarter over quarter.

Segment New Orders increased 17% while the average sales price of New Orders was flat in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. New Orders improved despite a relatively flat average number of active communities quarter over quarter due to favorable market conditions in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 2015, which led to a higher absorption rate quarter over quarter.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The Mid Atlantic segment had an approximate $19,300, or 15%, decrease in segment profit in the first six months of 2016 compared to the first six months of 2015 despite an increase in segment revenues of approximately $103,400, or 8% year over year.  Segment revenues increased due primarily to an 8% increase in the number of units settled.  The increase in the number of units settled was favorably impacted by a 6% higher backlog unit balance entering 2016 compared to the backlog entering 2015, coupled with a higher backlog turnover rate year over year.  The Mid Atlantic segment’s gross profit margin percentage decreased to 16.7% in 2016 from 18.7% in 2015, due to a 1% decrease in the average settlement price and higher construction costs year over year.

Segment New Orders increased 11% while the average sales price of New Orders was flat in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. New Orders improved despite a 1% decrease in the average number of active communities year over year due to favorable market conditions in the first six months of 2016 compared to 2015, which led to a higher absorption rate year over year.

North East

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The North East segment had an approximate $7,100, or 56%, decrease in segment profit in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in segment profit is attributable in part to a decrease in segment revenues of approximately $5,600, or 5%, quarter over quarter due to an 11% decrease in the number of units settled offset partially by a 6% higher average settlement price quarter over quarter.  The decrease in the number of settlements is attributable to a 12% lower backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.  The increase in the average settlement price was attributable to a 7% higher average price of homes in backlog entering the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. The North East segment’s gross profit margin percentage decreased to 15.7% in the second quarter of 2016 from 19.5% in the second quarter of 2015. Gross profit margin and segment profit were negatively impacted by higher construction and selling related costs in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015 and by the aforementioned decrease in settlements which impacted our ability to leverage certain operating costs.

Segment New Orders and the average New Order sales price each increased 6% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. New Orders were favorably impacted by an 11% increase in the average number of active communities quarter over quarter. The increase in the average New Order sales price was driven by a shift in New Orders to higher priced markets in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The North East segment had an approximate $9,000, or 48%, decrease in segment profit in the first six months of 2016 compared to the first six months of 2015 despite an increase in segment revenues of approximately $8,600, or 4%, year over year. The increase in segment revenues was due primarily to a 4% increase in the average settlement price year over year. The North East segment’s gross profit margin percentage decreased to 16.0% in the first six months of 2016 from 18.8% in the first six months of 2015. Gross profit margin and segment profit were negatively impacted by higher construction and selling related costs in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Segment New Orders and the average New Order sales price each increased 4% in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. New Orders were favorably impacted by a 5% increase in the average number of active communities year over year. The increase in the average New Order sales price was driven by a shift in New Orders to higher priced markets in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Mid East

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The Mid East segment had an approximate $14,500, or 93%, increase in segment profit in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015.  The increase in segment profit was driven by an increase of approximately $85,200, or 39%, in revenues quarter over quarter.  The increase in revenues was due to a 39% increase in the number of units settled.  The increase in settlements was primarily attributable to a 15% higher backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2016 compared to backlog entering the second quarter of 2015, coupled with a higher backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter. The segment’s gross profit margin percentage increased to 17.8% in the second quarter of 2016 from 17.5% in the same period of 2015, due primarily to the increased settlement activity, which allowed us to better leverage certain operating costs, offset partially by higher selling related costs quarter over quarter.

Segment New Orders increased 4% while the average sales price of New Orders was flat in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.  New Orders improved despite a 3% decrease in the average number of active communities quarter over quarter due to favorable market conditions in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 2015, which led to a higher absorption rate quarter over quarter.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The Mid East segment had an approximate $30,100, or 133%, increase in segment profit in the first six months of 2016 compared to the first six months of 2015.  The increase in segment profit was driven by an increase of approximately $144,000, or 35%, in revenues year over year.  The increase in revenues was due to a 35% increase in the number of units settled, which was primarily attributable to a 30% higher backlog unit balance entering 2016 compared to backlog entering 2015, coupled with a higher backlog turnover rate period over period.  The segment’s gross profit margin percentage increased to 18.0% in the first six months of 2016 from 16.5% in the same period of 2015, due primarily to the increased settlement activity, which allowed us to better leverage certain operating costs in the current year, offset partially by higher selling related costs year over year.

Segment New Orders increased 5% while the average selling price of New Orders was flat in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.  New Orders were favorably impacted by favorable market conditions in the first six months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, which led to a higher absorption rate year over year.

South East

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The South East segment had an approximate $3,200, or 25%, increase in segment profit in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015.  The increase in segment profit was primarily driven by an increase of approximately $35,100, or 25%, in revenues quarter over quarter.  The increase in revenues was due to a 19% increase in the number of units settled and a 5% increase in the average settlement price.  The increase in settlements was attributable to a 23% higher backlog unit balance entering the second quarter of 2016 compared to backlog entering the second quarter of 2015, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate quarter over quarter.  Average settlement prices were impacted in part by a 4% higher average price of homes in backlog entering the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.  The South East segment’s gross profit margin decreased to 18.4% in the second quarter of 2016 from 18.9% in the second quarter of 2015 due to higher lot and selling related costs quarter over quarter, offset partially by the increased settlement activity, which allowed us to better leverage certain operating costs in the current year second quarter.

Segment New Orders and the average sales price of New Orders increased 22% and 3%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.  New Orders were favorably impacted by a 6% increase in the average number of active communities in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 2015 and by favorable market conditions in the second quarter of 2016 which led to a higher absorption rate quarter over quarter.  The average sales price of New Orders was favorably impacted by a shift in New Orders to higher priced markets.

The South East segment had an approximate $7,200, or 33%, increase in segment profit in the first six months of 2016 compared to the first six months of 2015.  The increase in segment profit was primarily driven by an increase of

24


approximately $64,600, or 25%, in revenues.  The increase in revenues was due to a 21% increase in the number of units settled and a 3% increase in the average settlement price. The increase in settlements was attributable to a 33% higher backlog unit balance entering 2016 compare d to backlog entering 2015, offset partially by a lower backlog turnover rate year over year.  The South East segment’s gross profit margin decreased to 18.6% in the first six months of 2016 from 18.9% in the first six months of 2015 due to higher lot and selling related costs yea r over year, offset partially by the increased settlement activity, which allowed us to better leverage certain operating costs year over year.

Segment New Orders and the average sales price of New Orders increased 16% and 4%, respectively, in the first six months of 2016 compared to 2015.  New Orders were favorably impacted by an 8% increase in the average number of active communities in the first six months of 2016 compared to 2015 and by favorable market conditions in the second quarter of 2016, which led to a higher absorption rate year over year.  The average sales price of New Orders was favorably impacted by a shift in New Orders to higher priced markets.

Homebuilding Segment Reconciliations to Consolidated Homebuilding Operations

In addition to the corporate capital allocation and contract land deposit impairments discussed above, the other reconciling items between homebuilding segment profit and homebuilding consolidated profit before tax include unallocated corporate overhead (which includes all management incentive compensation), equity-based compensation expense, consolidation adjustments and external corporate interest expense. Our overhead functions, such as accounting, treasury and human resources, are centrally performed and the costs are not allocated to our operating segments. Consolidation adjustments consist of such items to convert the reportable segments’ results, which are predominantly maintained on a cash basis, to a full accrual basis for external financial statement presentation purposes, and are not allocated to our operating segments. External corporate interest expense primarily consists of interest charges on our 3.95% Senior Notes due 2022, and is not charged to the operating segments because the charges are included in the corporate capital allocation discussed above.

Loan closing volume for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increased by approximately $83,000, or 10%, and $198,200, or 13%, respectively, from the same periods for 2015.  The increases in loan closing volume during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 were primarily attributable to the 13% and 15% increases, respectively, in the homebuilding segment’s number of settlements when compared to the same periods in 2015.

Segment profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increased by approximately $1,700, or 14%, and $5,500, or 29%, respectively, from the same periods in 2015. The increases were primarily attributable to an increase in mortgage banking fees, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses.  Mortgage banking fees increased by approximately $3,900 and $10,200 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, resulting from the aforementioned increase in loan closing volumes and an increase in secondary marketing gains on sales

26


of loans. Gener al and administrative expens es increased by approximately $2 , 300 and $5, 400 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , respectively, resulting from an increase in personnel costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Lines of Credit and Notes Payable

Our homebuilding business segment funds its operations from cash flows provided by operating activities and capital raised in the public debt and equity markets.  Our mortgage banking subsidiary, NVRM, provides for its mortgage origination and other operating activities using cash generated from operations, borrowings from its parent company, NVR, as well as a $150,000 revolving mortgage repurchase facility (the “Repurchase Agreement”), which is non-recourse to NVR.  The Repurchase Agreement provides for an incremental commitment pursuant to which we may request increases in the total commitment available under the Repurchase Agreement by up to $50,000 in the aggregate.  The Repurchase Agreement was renewed in July 2016 with materially consistent terms and conditions and expires on July 26, 2017.  At June 30, 2016, there were no borrowing base limitations reducing the amount available under the Repurchase Agreement. There was no debt outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement at June 30, 2016.

On July 15, 2016, we entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Book Runner, and the other lenders party thereto, which provides for aggregate revolving loan commitments of $200,000 (the “Facility”).  Proceeds of the borrowings under the Facility will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.  Under the Credit Agreement, we may request increases of up to $300,000 to the Facility in the form of revolving loan commitments or term loans to the extent that new or existing lenders agree to provide additional revolving loan or term loan commitments. The Credit Agreement provides for a $100,000 sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $25,000 sublimit for a swing line commitment. The Credit Agreement contains various representations and affirmative and negative covenants that are generally customary for credit facilities of this type.  Such covenants include among others, the following financial maintenance covenants: (i) minimum consolidated tangible net worth, (ii) minimum interest coverage ratio or minimum liquidity and (iii) a maximum leverage ratio. The negative covenants include among others, certain limitations on liens, investments and fundamental changes.  The Credit Agreement termination date is July 15, 2021.

There have been no other material changes in our lines of credit and notes payable during the six months ended June 30, 2016.  For additional information regarding lines of credit and notes payable, see Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Cash Flows

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $60,822.  Cash provided by operating activities was $3,894.  Cash provided by earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was used to fund the increase in homebuilding inventory of $240,708.  The increase in homebuilding inventory was primarily attributable to an increase in units under construction at June 30, 2016 compared to December 31, 2015.  Cash was provided by net proceeds of $85,610 from mortgage loan activity.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 of $4,645 included cash used for purchases of property, plant and equipment of $11,773, partially offset by the receipt of capital distributions from our unconsolidated JVs totaling $7,003.

Net cash used in financing activities was $60,071 for the six months ended June 30, 2016.  Cash was used to repurchase 61,988 shares of our common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $96,508 under our ongoing common stock repurchase program, discussed below.  Stock option exercise activity provided $27,909 in proceeds, and we realized $8,678 in excess income tax benefits from equity-based compensation plan activity.

Equity Repurchases

In addition to funding growth in our homebuilding and mortgage banking operations, we historically have used a substantial portion of our excess liquidity to repurchase outstanding shares of our common stock in open market and privately negotiated transactions.  This ongoing repurchase activity is conducted pursuant to publicly announced Board authorizations, and is typically executed in accordance with the safe-harbor provisions of Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act.  In addition, the Board resolutions authorizing us to repurchase shares of our common stock

27


specifically prohibit us from purchasing shares from our officers, directors, Profit Sharing/401(k) Plan Trust or Employee Stock Ownership Plan Trust.  The repurchase program assists us in accomplishing our primary objective of creating increases in shareholder value. See Part II, Item 2, Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of repu rchase activity during the second quarter of 2016.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 14 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements applicable to us.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

There have been no material changes in our market risks during the six months ended June 30, 2016. For additional information regarding our market risks, see Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.  Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In June 2010, we received a Request for Information from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) pursuant to Section 308 of the Clean Water Act. The request sought information about storm water discharge practices in connection with homebuilding projects completed or underway by us in New York and New Jersey. We cooperated with this request, and provided information to the EPA. We were subsequently informed by the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) that the EPA forwarded the information on the matter to the DOJ, and the DOJ requested that we meet with the government to discuss the status of the case. Meetings took place in January 2012, August 2012 and November 2014 with representatives from both the EPA and DOJ. We have continued discussions with the EPA and DOJ and are presently engaged in settlement discussions with them. Any settlement is expected to include injunctive relief and payment of a civil penalty. Although there can be no assurance that a settlement will be reached, we have recorded a liability associated with an estimated civil penalty amount on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of both June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

We are also involved in various other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, and based on advice of legal counsel, this litigation is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Legal costs incurred in connection with outstanding litigation are expensed as incurred.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
