KB HOME REPORTS 2025 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Revenues of $1.62 Billion; Diluted Earnings Per Share of $1.61

Repurchased $188.5 Million of Common Stock

LOS ANGELES (September 24, 2025) — KB Home (NYSE: KBH) today reported results for its third quarter ended August 31, 2025.

“We achieved solid financial results in our third quarter, meeting or exceeding our guidance ranges across the key metrics for our business. Operationally, our execution was outstanding, as we continued to make meaningful progress in reducing both our build times and costs to build,” said Jeffrey Mezger, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our sales approach in the quarter remained consistent and straightforward, focused on offering homebuyers the most compelling value at a transparent price. As the quarter progressed, we were encouraged to see affordability improving, as mortgage interest rates began to ease.”

“Our healthy balance sheet is enabling us to both position our business for future growth and reward our stockholders through a substantial return of capital. In the first nine months of this fiscal year, we have returned more than $490 million to stockholders through share repurchases that represent approximately 11% of our shares outstanding, as well as dividends. We expect to continue repurchasing our shares in our 2025 fourth quarter and 2026 fiscal year, as we remain committed to enhancing long-term stockholder value,” concluded Mezger.

Three Months Ended August 31, 2025 (comparisons on a year-over-year basis)

•Revenues totaled $1.62 billion, compared to $1.75 billion.

•Homes delivered decreased 7% to 3,393.

•Average selling price was down slightly to $475,700.

•Homebuilding operating income was $131.2 million, compared to $189.0 million. The homebuilding operating income margin was 8.1%, compared to 10.8%, mainly due to a lower housing gross profit margin. Excluding total inventory-related charges of $11.3 million for the current quarter and $1.2 million for the year-earlier quarter, the homebuilding operating income margin was 8.8%, compared to 10.9%.

◦The housing gross profit margin was 18.2%, compared to 20.6%. Excluding the above-mentioned inventory-related charges, the housing gross profit margin was 18.9%, compared to 20.7%, reflecting price reductions, higher relative land costs, and geographic mix, partly offset by lower construction costs.

◦Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of housing revenues were 10.0%, compared to 9.8%, primarily due to decreased operating leverage.

•Financial services pretax income totaled $8.7 million, compared to $11.0 million, mainly due to decreases in both insurance commission revenues and equity in income of the Company’s mortgage banking joint venture. The mortgage banking joint venture’s results primarily reflected a decrease in interest rate lock commitments and a lower volume of loan originations, largely due to fewer homes delivered.

•Net income was $109.8 million, compared to $157.3 million. Diluted earnings per share declined 21% to $1.61, reflecting current quarter net income, partly offset by the favorable impact of the Company’s common stock repurchases.

◦The effective tax rate was 23.3%, compared to 24.2%.

Nine Months Ended August 31, 2025 (comparisons on a year-over-year basis)

•Revenues totaled $4.54 billion, compared to $4.93 billion.

•Homes delivered of 9,283 were down 9%.

•Average selling price increased to $487,500.

•Net income was $327.3 million, compared to $464.4 million.

•Diluted earnings per share decreased 23% to $4.60.

Net Orders and Backlog (comparisons on a year-over-year basis, except as noted)

•Net orders of 2,950 for the 2025 third quarter declined 4%. The Company’s ending backlog homes totaled 4,333, compared to 5,724. Ending backlog value was $1.99 billion, compared to $2.92 billion.

◦Monthly net orders per community were 3.8, compared to 4.1.

◦The cancellation rate as a percentage of gross orders was 17%, compared to 15%.

•The average community count for the quarter increased 3% to 259, and the ending community count rose 4% to 264.

Balance Sheet as of August 31, 2025 (comparisons to November 30, 2024, except as noted)

•The Company had total liquidity of $1.16 billion, including $330.6 million of cash and cash equivalents and $831.7 million of available capacity under its unsecured revolving credit facility, with $250.0 million of cash borrowings outstanding.

•Inventories increased 6% to $5.84 billion. On a year-over-year basis, inventories grew 3%.

◦Investments in land and land development decreased 7% to $1.95 billion, compared to $2.10 billion. For the 2025 third quarter, land-related investments decreased 39% from the prior-year quarter to $514.1 million.

◦The Company’s lots owned or under contract decreased 15% to 65,251, of which approximately 58% were owned and 42% were under contract. Year over year, the total lot portfolio decreased 6%, down from 69,279.

•Notes payable were $1.94 billion, compared to $1.69 billion, reflecting cash borrowings outstanding under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility. The debt to capital ratio was 33.2%, compared to 29.4%.

•Stockholders’ equity totaled $3.90 billion, compared to $4.06 billion, primarily due to common stock repurchases and cash dividends in the 2025 first nine months, largely offset by net income for the same period.

◦In the 2025 third quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 3.3 million shares of its outstanding common stock at a cost of $188.5 million, or $57.12 per share, bringing its total repurchases for the nine months ended August 31, 2025 to approximately 7.8 million shares at a cost of $438.5 million, or $56.30 per share. As of August 31, 2025, the Company had $261.5 million remaining under its current common stock repurchase authorization.

◦Based on the Company’s approximately 64.8 million outstanding shares as of August 31, 2025, book value per share of $60.25 increased 11% year over year.

Guidance

The Company is providing the following guidance for its 2025 full year:

•Housing revenues in the range of $6.10 billion to $6.20 billion.

•Average selling price of approximately $483,000.

changes in existing tax laws or enacted corporate income tax rates, including those resulting from regulatory guidance and interpretations issued with respect thereto, such as Internal Revenue Service guidance regarding heightened qualification requirements for federal tax credits for building energy-efficient homes, and the potential accelerated phaseout of such tax credits in 2026; changes in U.S. trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and duties on homebuilding materials and products, and related trade disputes with and retaliatory measures taken by other countries, and financial markets’ and businesses’ reactions to any such policies;

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(In Thousands, Except Percentages – Unaudited)

Company management’s discussion of the results presented in this press release may include information about the Company’s adjusted housing gross profit margin, which is not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure is relevant and useful to investors in understanding its operations, and may be helpful in comparing the Company with other companies in the homebuilding industry to the extent they provide similar information. However, because it is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this non-GAAP financial measure may not be completely comparable to other companies in the homebuilding industry and, thus, should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance and/or financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, this non-GAAP financial measure should be used to supplement the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in order to provide a greater understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s operations.

Adjusted Housing Gross Profit Margin

The following table reconciles the Company’s housing gross profit margin calculated in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measure of the Company’s adjusted housing gross profit margin:


	Three Months Ended August 31,						Nine Months Ended August 31,
	2025			2024			2025			2024
Housing revenues	$	1,613,975		$	1,745,979		$	4,525,732		$	4,905,617
Housing construction and land costs	(1,320,611)			(1,385,563)			(3,658,080)			(3,872,092)
Housing gross profits	293,364			360,416			867,652			1,033,525
Add: Inventory-related charges (a)	11,338			1,177			18,351			3,685
Adjusted housing gross profits	$	304,702		$	361,593		$	886,003		$	1,037,210


Housing gross profit margin	18.2		%	20.6		%	19.2		%	21.1		%
Adjusted housing gross profit margin	18.9		%	20.7		%	19.6		%	21.1		%

(a) Represents inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges associated with housing operations.

Adjusted housing gross profit margin is a non-GAAP financial measure, which the Company calculates by dividing housing revenues less housing construction and land costs excluding housing inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges (as applicable) recorded during a given period, by housing revenues. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is housing gross profit margin. The Company believes adjusted housing gross profit margin is a relevant and useful financial measure to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance as it measures the gross profits the Company generated specifically on the homes delivered during a given period. This non-GAAP financial measure isolates the impact that housing inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges have on housing gross profit margins, and allows investors to make comparisons with the Company’s competitors that adjust housing gross profit margins in a similar manner. The Company also believes investors will find adjusted housing gross profit margin relevant and useful because it represents a profitability measure that may be compared to a prior period without regard to variability of housing inventory impairment and land option contract abandonment charges. This financial measure assists management in making strategic decisions regarding community location and product mix, product pricing and construction pace.
