Forward guidance

Tailwinds
- Company believes land position and backlog will position it to grow their business in 2022 and beyond
- Intent to increase the number of spec homes in their portfolio and the impact of that strategy on their ability to capture the most current price increases and to maximize profitability
- Company's strategy for growth, the drivers and acceleration of that growth, and the impact on their results during 2022
- Company's ability to capitalize on market opportunities and the impact on results
- Company presence in high job growth markets coupled with credit worthy buyers who can afford larger homes and bigger mortgages allow the company to continue to raise prices with new releases of lots
Headwinds
- Continuing impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic
- Changes in macroeconomic conditions, including interest rates and unemployment rates, that could adversely impact demand for new homes or the ability of potential buyers to qualify
- Shortages, delays or increased costs of raw materials, especially in light of COVID-19 and increased demand for materials, or increases in other operating costs, including costs related to labor, real estate taxes and insurance, which in each case exceed their ability to increase prices
- A shortage of labor
- An inability to acquire land in their markets at anticipated prices or difficulty in obtaining land-use entitlements
