Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

Percentile = share of the N covered peers reporting that ratio whose value is lower (ties counted half); computed among grepcent-covered companies in SIC industry 1531 Operative Builders, not the whole market. A higher percentile means a higher value of the ratio, not a better company. Ratios with fewer than 8 reporting peers are omitted. Latest reported values per company; fiscal periods may differ. Descriptive arithmetic - not a score, rating, or ranking.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and various other factors that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates such estimates and assumptions and makes adjustments as deemed necessary. Actual results could differ from these estimates using different estimates and assumptions, or if conditions are significantly different in the future. See Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information about our accounting policies.

We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 as compared to those disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2025 Form 10-K.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our reportable segments are: Northern homebuilding; Southern homebuilding; and financial services operations. The homebuilding operating segments that comprise each of our reportable segments are as follows:

Overview

Housing market conditions remained challenging due to persistent affordability pressures driven by elevated mortgage interest rates, inflation, rising lot costs, limited affordable housing inventory, and ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainty. Mortgage interest rates remained in the mid-to-upper 6% range throughout the second quarter of 2026, while inflationary pressures and broader economic concerns continued to negatively impact consumer confidence.

To support affordability and stimulate demand, we continued to offer targeted sales incentives, including mortgage interest rate buydowns, consistent with our approach in 2025. These incentives contributed to improved contract activity compared to the prior year and resulted in a record number of second quarter new contracts. Despite stronger sales activity, home closings declined compared to the second quarter of 2025. Overall profitability decreased from the prior year, primarily reflecting higher lot costs and mortgage rate buydown incentives that continue to be an important part of our sale strategy. Nevertheless, we remain encouraged by the underlying fundamentals of our business, as demand for attainable housing continues to be supported by a structural undersupply of homes. Additionally, housing affordability remains a key focus for federal policymakers, with continued attention on initiatives aimed at increasing housing availability and improving access to homeownership.

Our results during the second quarter and first half of 2026 in comparison to the second quarter and first half of 2025 were as follows:

24

•New contracts increased 15% to a record 2,387 from 2,078 and increased 8% to 4,737 from 4,370, respectively

•Number of homes delivered decreased 6% to 2,206 homes and decreased 5% to 4,120 homes, respectively

•Revenue decreased 9% to $1.06 billion and decreased 7% to $1.98 billion, respectively

•Income before income taxes decreased 35% to $104.6 million and decreased 37% to $193.7 million, respectively

•Gross margin decreased 260 basis points to 22.1% and decreased 310 basis points to 22.1%, respectively

•Net income decreased 35% to $79.1 million and decreased 37% to $146.9 million, respectively

•Shareholders’ equity of $3.2 billion, a 5% increase from a year ago, with book value per common share increasing to a record high $128 per share

•Homebuilding debt to capital ratio was 18% for both periods

Additionally, our financial services segment achieved its highest revenue in a second quarter and improved capture rate to 96% from 92% in second quarter 2025.

Our company-wide absorption pace of sales per community for the second quarter of 2026 was 3.4 per month compared to 3.0 for the prior year’s second quarter. We plan to open additional new communities during the remainder of 2026 and increase our average community count by about 5% from 2025.

Summary of Company Financial Results

Income before income taxes for the second quarter of 2026 decreased $55.5 million from $160.1 million in the second quarter of 2025 to $104.6 million in 2026. Net income was $79.1 million, or $3.02 per diluted share, in 2026's second quarter, compared to $121.2 million, or $4.42 per diluted share, in 2025's second quarter. Our effective tax rate was 24.4% and 24.3% in the second quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively. For the first half of 2026, income before income taxes decreased $112.5 million from $306.2 million in the first half of 2025 to $193.7 million in 2026. We achieved net income of $146.9 million, or $5.57 per diluted share, during the first half of 2026 compared to net income of $232.5 million, or $8.40 per diluted share, in the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our effective tax rate was 24.2% in 2026's first half compared to 24.1% in the same period in 2025.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, our total revenue was $1.06 billion, of which $1.03 billion was from homebuilding and $32.3 million was from our financial services operations. Revenue from homebuilding decreased 9% in 2026's second quarter compared to the same period in 2025 driven primarily by a 4% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered ($20,000 per home delivered) and a 6% decrease in the number of homes delivered (142 units) offset in part by a $12.3 million increase in land sales. Our revenue and average sales price reflect a $63.2 million reduction for sales incentives and closing costs in the second quarter of 2026 compared to a $47.1 million reduction for sales incentives and closing costs in 2025's second quarter. Revenue from our financial services segment increased 3% to $32.3 million in the second quarter of 2026 as a result of slightly higher margins on loans sold and an improved capture rate, partially offset by a decrease in loans originated during the period compared to the second quarter of 2025. For the first half of 2026, we recorded year-to-date total revenue of $1.98 billion, of which $1.92 billion was from homes delivered and $63.6 million was from our financial services operations. Revenue from homebuilding decreased 8% in the first half of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 driven primarily by decreases in the number of homes delivered (204 units) and the average sales price of homes delivered ($19,000 per home delivered). Our revenue and average sales price reflect a $115.9 million reduction for incentives and closing costs in 2026’s first six months compared to an $87.1 million reduction for incentives and closing costs in 2025’s first six months. Revenue from our financial services segment increased 1% to $63.6 million in the first half of 2026 compared to the first half of 2025 as a result of an increase in loans originated during the period and an improved capture rate, offset by a decrease in the average loan amount during the period.

Total gross margin (total revenue less total land and housing costs) decreased $51.1 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025 as a result of a $52.0 million decline in the gross margin of our homebuilding operations, partially offset by a $0.9 million increase in the gross margin of our financial services operations.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF

     OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

M/I Homes, Inc. together with its subsidiaries is one of the nation’s leading builders of single-family homes, having sold over 168,200 homes since commencing homebuilding activities in 1976. The Company’s homes are marketed and sold primarily under the M/I Homes brand. The Company has homebuilding operations in Columbus and Cincinnati, Ohio; Indianapolis, Indiana; Chicago, Illinois; Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota; Detroit, Michigan; Fort Myers/Naples, Tampa, Sarasota and Orlando, Florida; Austin, Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio, Texas; Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina; and Nashville, Tennessee.

Included in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are the following topics relevant to the Company’s performance and financial condition:

•Application of Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies;

•Results of Operations;

•Discussion of Our Liquidity and Capital Resources; and

•Impact of Interest Rates and Inflation.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and various other factors that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates such estimates and assumptions and makes adjustments as deemed necessary. Actual results could differ from these estimates using different estimates and assumptions, or if conditions are significantly different in the future. See “Special Note of Caution Regarding Forward - Looking Statements” above in Part I.

Listed below are those estimates and policies that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application. Our critical accounting estimates should be read in conjunction with the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition.  Revenue and the related profit from the sale of a home and revenue and the related profit from the sale of land to third parties are recognized in the financial statements on the date of closing if delivery has occurred, title has passed to the buyer, all performance obligations (as defined below) have been met, and control of the home or land is transferred to the buyer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for the home or land. If not received immediately upon closing, cash proceeds from home closings are held in escrow for the Company’s benefit, typically for up to three days, and are included in Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Sales incentives vary by type of incentive and by amount on a community-by-community and home-by-home basis. The costs of any sales incentives in the form of free or discounted products and services provided to homebuyers are reflected in Land and housing costs in the Consolidated Statements of Income because such incentives are identified in our home purchase contracts with homebuyers as an intrinsic part of our single performance obligation to deliver and transfer title to their home for the transaction price stated in the contracts. Sales incentives that we may provide in the form of closing cost allowances are recorded as a reduction of housing revenue at the time the home is delivered.

We record sales commissions within Selling expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income when incurred (i.e., when the home is delivered) as the amortization period is generally one year or less and therefore capitalization is not required as part of the practical expedient for incremental costs of obtaining a contract.

Contract liabilities include customer deposits related to sold but undelivered homes. Substantially all of our home sales are scheduled to close and be recorded to revenue within one year from the date of receiving a customer deposit. Contract liabilities expected to be recognized as revenue, excluding revenue pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less, are not material.

28

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. All of our home purchase contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the home is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, not distinct. Our primary performance obligation, to deliver the agreed-upon home, is generally satisfied in less than one year from the original contract date. Deferred revenue resulting from any other uncompleted performance obligations existing at the time we deliver new homes to our homebuyers is not material.

Although our third-party land sale contracts may include multiple performance obligations, the revenue we expect to recognize in any future year related to remaining performance obligations, excluding revenue pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less, is not material. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for land sale contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less.

We recognize the majority of the revenue associated with our mortgage loan operations when the mortgage loans are sold and/or related servicing rights are sold to third party investors or retained and managed under a third-party sub-service arrangement. The revenue recognized is reduced by the fair value of the related guarantee provided to the investor. The fair value of the guarantee is recognized in revenue when the Company is released from its obligation under the guarantee. We recognize financial services revenue associated with our title operations as homes are delivered, closing services are rendered, and title policies are issued, all of which generally occur simultaneously as each home is delivered. All of the underwriting risk associated with title insurance policies is transferred to third-party insurers.

See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to our revenues disaggregated by geography and revenue source.

Inventory. Inventory includes the costs of land acquisition, land development and home construction, capitalized interest, real estate taxes, direct overhead costs incurred during development and home construction, and common costs that benefit the entire community, less impairments, if any. Land acquisition, land development and common costs (both incurred and estimated to be incurred) are typically allocated to individual lots based on the total number of lots expected to be closed in each community or phase, or based on the relative fair value, the relative sales value or the front footage method of each lot. Any changes to the estimated total development costs of a community or phase are allocated proportionately to the homes remaining in the community or phase and homes previously closed. The cost of individual lots is transferred to homes under construction when home construction begins. Home construction costs are accumulated on a specific identification basis. Costs of home deliveries include the specific construction cost of the home and the allocated lot costs. Such costs are charged to cost of sales simultaneously with revenue recognition, as discussed above. When a home is closed, we typically have not yet paid all incurred costs necessary to complete the home. As homes close, we compare the home construction budget to actual recorded costs to date to estimate the additional costs to be incurred from our subcontractors related to the home. We record a liability and a corresponding charge to cost of sales for the amount we estimate will ultimately be paid related to that home. We monitor the accuracy of such estimates by comparing actual costs incurred in subsequent months to the estimate. Although actual costs to complete a home in the future could differ from our estimates, our method has historically produced consistently accurate estimates of actual costs to complete closed homes.

Inventory is recorded at cost, unless events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the land is impaired, at which point the inventory is written down to fair value as required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”). The Company assesses inventory for recoverability on a quarterly basis if events or changes in local or national economic conditions indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In conducting our quarterly review for indicators of impairment on a community level, we evaluate, among other things, margins on sales contracts in backlog, the margins on homes that have been delivered, expected changes in margins with regard to future home sales over the life of the community, expected changes in margins with regard to future land sales, the value of the land itself as well as any results from third-party appraisals. From the review of all of these factors, we identify communities whose carrying values may exceed their estimated undiscounted future cash flows and run a test for recoverability. For those communities whose carrying values exceed the estimated undiscounted future cash flows and which are deemed to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the communities exceeds the estimated fair value. Due to the fact that the Company’s cash flow models and estimates of fair values are based upon management estimates and assumptions, unexpected changes in market conditions and/or changes in management’s intentions with respect to the inventory may lead the Company to incur additional impairment charges in the future. Because each inventory asset is unique, there are numerous inputs and assumptions used in our valuation techniques, including estimated average selling price, construction and development costs, absorption pace (reflecting any product mix change strategies implemented or to be implemented), selling strategies, alternative land uses (including disposition of all or a portion of the land owned), or discount rates, which could materially impact future cash flow and fair value estimates.

29

If communities are not recoverable based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. The fair value of a community is estimated by discounting management’s cash flow projections using an appropriate risk-adjusted interest rate. As of December 31, 2025, we utilized discount rates ranging from 13% to 16% in our valuations. The discount rate used in determining each asset’s estimated fair value reflects the inherent risks associated with the related estimated cash flow stream, as well as current risk-free rates available in the market and estimated market risk premiums.

Our quarterly assessments reflect management’s best estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainties in management’s estimates and uncertainties related to our operations and our industr
