Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report includes certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws regarding, among other things, our intentions, plans, beliefs, expectations or predictions of future events, which are considered forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on those statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.

These statements often include words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “can,” “could,” “might,” “project” or similar expressions. These statements are based upon assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry, as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors that we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read this quarterly report, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company's Annual Report and in our subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Although we believe that these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions and currently available information, you should be aware that many factors, including those described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report and in our subsequent filings with the SEC, could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.

Our forward-looking statements made herein are made only as of the date of this quarterly report. We expressly disclaim any intent, obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statements made herein to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements are based, except as required by applicable law.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Business Overview

Our principal business is residential homebuilding and the development of lifestyle communities with operations across 12 states. We provide a collection of homes across a wide range of price points to appeal to a variety of consumer groups. We design, build and sell single and multi-family detached and attached homes in traditionally high growth markets for entry-level, move-up, and resort lifestyle buyers. Our homebuilding segments operate under the Taylor Morrison and Esplanade brand names. We also have a “Build-to-Rent” homebuilding business which operates under the Yardly brand name. In addition, we provide financial services to customers through our wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, TMHF, title services through our wholly owned title services subsidiary, Inspired Title, and homeowner’s insurance policies through our insurance agency, TMIS. For reporting purposes, TMHC and Taylor Morrison Communities, Inc. are substantially similar, with no material differences. Our business is organized into multiple homebuilding operating components, and a financial services component, all of which are organized as four reportable segments: East, Central, West and Financial Services, as follows:

As of March 31, 2026, we employed approximately 2,800 full-time equivalent persons. Of these, approximately 2,350 were engaged in corporate and homebuilding operations, and the remaining approximately 450 were engaged in financial services.

Factors Affecting Comparability of Results

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $8.2 million and $14.9 million in inventory impairment charges, respectively. Inventory impairment charges are recorded to Cost of home closings on the unaudited Condensed consolidated statements of operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $5.6 million and $0.9 million in pre-acquisition abandonment charges, respectively for projects we are no longer pursuing. These charges are recorded to Other expense, net on the unaudited Condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Regulatory Update

With housing reform rising to the forefront of both the Administration's and Congress’ agendas, the regulatory landscape affecting the homebuilding industry continues to evolve. During the first quarter, the Senate proposed legislation aimed at limiting institutional ownership of single-family homes. While it is unclear whether this legislation is intended to include ownership of single-parcel horizontal apartment communities similar to our Yardly projects, we have engaged in active conversations with policymakers in an effort to clarify the exclusion of such communities from any final legislation and/or rulemaking. We remain committed to working constructively with policymakers at all levels to support housing supply and availability; however, there can be no assurance that such engagement will result in favorable policy outcomes or prevent the adoption of measures that could adversely affect our business.

First Quarter 2026 Highlights (all comparisons are of the current quarter to the prior year quarter, unless otherwise indicated):

•Home closings revenue, net of $1.3 billion

◦2,268 closings at an average sales price of $578,000

•Home closings gross margin of 20.0%; adjusted home closings gross margin of 20.6%

•SG&A ratio of 11.4% of home closings revenue

•Net sales orders of 2,914 at an average selling price of $603,000

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results reported in accordance with GAAP, we have provided information in this quarterly report relating to: (i) adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per common share, (ii) adjusted income before income taxes and related margin, (iii) adjusted home closings gross margin, (iv) EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and (v) net homebuilding debt to capitalization ratio.

Adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per common share and adjusted income before income taxes and related margin are non-GAAP financial measures that reflect the net income/(loss) available to the Company excluding, to the extent applicable in a given period, the impact of real estate and inventory impairment charges, impairment of investments in unconsolidated entities, pre-acquisition abandonment charges, unique and unusual warranty charges, gains/losses on land transfers to joint ventures, extinguishment of debt, net, and legal reserves or settlements that the Company deems not to be in the ordinary course of business and in the case of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per common share, the tax impact due to such items.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that measure performance by adjusting net income before allocation to non-controlling interests to exclude, as applicable, interest expense/(income), net, amortization of capitalized interest, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization to calculate EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes non-cash compensation expense, if any, real estate and inventory impairment charges, impairment of investments in unconsolidated entities, pre-acquisition abandonment charges, unique and unusual warranty charges, gains/losses on land transfers to joint ventures, extinguishment of debt, net and legal reserves or settlements that the Company deems not to be in the ordinary course of business, in each case, as applicable in a given period.

Net homebuilding debt to capitalization ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure we calculate by dividing (i) total debt, plus unamortized debt issuance costs/(premium), net, and less mortgage warehouse borrowings, net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents (“net homebuilding debt”), by (ii) total capitalization (the sum of net homebuilding debt and total stockholders’ equity).

General Overview

Our principal business is residential homebuilding and the development of lifestyle communities with operations across 12 states. We provide a collection of homes across a wide range of price points to appeal to a variety of consumer groups. We design, build and sell single and multi-family detached and attached homes in traditionally high growth markets for entry-level, move-up, and resort lifestyle buyers. Our homebuilding segments operate under the Taylor Morrison and Esplanade brand names. We also have a “Build-to-Rent” homebuilding business which operates under the Yardly brand name. In addition, we provide financial services to customers through our wholly owned mortgage subsidiary, TMHF, title services through our wholly owned title services subsidiary, Inspired Title, and homeowner’s insurance policies through our insurance agency, TMIS. For reporting purposes, Taylor Morrison Home Corporation (“TMHC”) and Taylor Morrison Communities, Inc. ("TM Communities") are substantially similar, with no material differences. Our business is organized into multiple homebuilding operating components, and a financial services component, all of which are organized as four operating segments: East, Central, West and Financial Services, as follows:

(1) During the year ended December 31, 2025, we combined our Portland and Seattle divisions to become Pacific Northwest.

Annual Overview and Business Strategy

We benefit from a dynamic and flexible operating strategy that allows us to serve a broad range of consumers and respond to market and economic conditions, community by community, to maximize our financial performance. This flexible but prudent approach allows for shifts in our pricing strategies, community openings, financing incentives, starts volume and land investments to minimize risk and recalibrate affordability, while maintaining strong performance metrics.

We continuously adjust sales prices and our finance product offerings across our portfolio based on market conditions to drive sales while also protecting the value of our backlog. Pricing adjustments are utilized in a variety of ways including finance incentives, adjustments to the pricing of lot premiums, options and upgrades, and in some instances base price of the home. Each community’s buyer profile mix of adjustments is dependent on its backlog, inventory, duration, and competitive dynamics.

Our balance sheet remained strong at December 31, 2025, ending the year with approximately $1.8 billion in total liquidity, a homebuilding debt-to-capitalization ratio of 26.0% on a gross basis and 17.8% net of unrestricted cash. We believe we have a balanced capital allocation approach and continue to allocate capital and manage our land portfolio to acquire assets that have attractive characteristics, including access to preferred schools, shopping, recreation and transportation facilities. In connection with our overall land inventory management and investment process, our management team reviews these considerations, as well as other financial metrics, to decide the highest and best use of our capital.

Factors Affecting Comparability of Results

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, impacting our reported results of operations and financial condition.

Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the recognition of income and expenses. The estimates and assumptions used by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The significant accounting policies that management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described below.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). The standard’s core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

Home and Land Closings Revenue

Under ASC 606, the following steps are applied to determine home closings revenue and land closings revenue recognition: (1) identify the contract(s) with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligation(s) are satisfied. Our home sales transactions have one contract, with one performance obligation, with each customer to build and deliver a home (or develop and deliver land). Based on the application of the five steps, the following summarizes the timing and manner of home and land closings revenue:

•Revenue from home closings is recognized when the buyer has made the required minimum down payment, obtained necessary financing, the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer, and we have no continuing involvement with the property, which is generally upon the close of escrow. Revenue is reported net of any discounts and incentives.

•Revenue from land closings is recognized when a significant down payment is received, title passes and collectability of the receivable, if any, is reasonably assured, and we have no continuing involvement with the property, which is generally upon the close of escrow. From time to time we may enter into land or other asset sales that require recognition of revenue over time, however as of December 31, 2025, no such transactions have been material.

Amenity and Other Revenue

We own and operate certain amenities such as golf courses, club houses, and fitness centers, which require us to provide club members with access to the facilities in exchange for the payment of club dues. We collect club dues and other fees from club members, which are invoiced on a monthly basis. Revenue from our golf club operations is also included in Amenity and other revenue. Amenity and other revenue also includes revenue from our Urban Form and Build-to-Rent operations which is recorded as control transfers to the buyer at transaction close and when other criteria of ASC 606 are met. In addition, lease revenue is recognized by Urban Form for commercial and residential leases and Build-to-Rent operations for rental home leases.

Financial Services Revenue

Mortgage operations and hedging activity related to financial services are not within the scope of Topic 606. Generally, the loans TMHF originates are sold to third-party investors within a short period of time, on a non-recourse basis. Gains and losses from the sale of mortgages are recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 860-20, Sales of Financial Assets. TMHF generally does not have continuing involvement with the transferred assets; therefore, we derecognize the mortgage loans at time of sale, based on the difference between the selling price and carrying value of the related loans upon sale,

recording a gain/loss on sale in the period of sale. Also included in Financial services revenue/expenses is the realized and unrealized gains and losses from hedging instruments. ASC Topic 815-25, Derivatives and Hedging, requires that all hedging instruments be recognized as assets or liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets at their fair value. We do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting; therefore, we account for these instruments as free-standing derivatives, with changes in fair value recognized in Financial services revenue/expenses on the Consolidated statement of operations in the period in which they occur.

Real Estate Inventory Valuation and Costing

Inventory consists of raw land, land under development, homes under construction, completed homes, and model homes, all of which are stated at cost. In addition to direct carrying costs, we also capitalize interest, real estate taxes, and related development costs that benefit the entire community, such as field construction supervision and related direct overhead. Vertical construction costs are accumulated and charged to Cost of home closings at the time of home closings when revenue is recognized using the specific identification method. Land acquisition, development, interest, and real estate taxes are capitalized and allocated generally using the rela
