Financial Position and Debt - The total principal amount of the company's debt as of December 31, 2023, was $2.0 billion, including $153.5 million of indebtedness from its financial services business[181]. - The company faces potential increases in construction costs due to new energy efficiency standards and regulations related to climate change, which could significantly impact profitability[166]. - Severe drought conditions in the Western United States may lead to restrictions on water usage for construction, increasing operational costs and complicating regulatory approvals for new developments[168]. - The company is exposed to risks associated with its financial services business, including the inability to sell originated mortgages in the secondary market, which could negatively affect liquidity and operations[170]. - Changes in governmental regulations regarding mortgage lending could adversely affect the financial results of the company's financial services segment, potentially leading to increased compliance costs[175]. - The discontinuation of LIBOR and transition to SOFR as a benchmark for interest payments could result in increased borrowing costs for the company[191]. - The company may face challenges in acquiring additional financing due to constricted capital markets, which could delay or abandon development and expansion plans[180]. - The company has established relationships with lenders that are crucial for its mortgage origination business; any deterioration in these relationships could lead to increased product prices and loss of customers[179]. - The company’s operations are heavily dependent on raw materials, and any burdens on suppliers from energy-related regulations could indirectly impact profitability[166]. - The company’s financial services operations may be subject to claims for losses associated with errors in loan representations, which could adversely affect financial performance[173]. Governance and Cybersecurity - The company has provisions in its charter and by-laws that may delay or prevent acquisition by a third party, potentially diminishing the value of its common stock[193]. - Under the existing debt agreements, a change of control would require a third-party acquirer to refinance outstanding indebtedness, and the company would need to repurchase Senior Notes at 101% of their principal amounts if a change of control occurs[197]. - The company maintains a comprehensive cybersecurity program, performing quarterly risk assessments to identify and remediate potential threats[202]. - Independent third parties are engaged semi-annually to assess the risks associated with the company's IT resources and information assets[203]. - The company has developed mitigation plans for material cybersecurity risks, which include implementing additional technology controls and increased training for personnel[204]. - The corporate headquarters is located in Scottsdale, Arizona, covering approximately 25,000 square feet, with the lease expiring in December 2027[215]. - The company has approximately 46 other leases for division offices and design centers[215]. - The Board of Directors receives biannual updates on the state of the cybersecurity program, including key risks and notable incidents[214]. - Management conducts quarterly cyber risk reviews and maintains a cybersecurity risk register to manage evolving threats[213]. - The company has provisions that could limit the price investors are willing to pay for shares, potentially deterring acquirers and reducing acquisition premiums[195].
