COLUMBIA, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- United Homes Group, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: UHG), today announced that the special committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) previously appointed by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) in May has, in conjunction with its legal and financial advisors, concluded its review of strategic alternatives. After evaluating a full range of strategic alternatives, including a potential sale, merger or other transaction, the Special Committee has unanimously determined that, in light of current macroeconomic conditions, continuing to execute on the Company’s strategic plan as an independent, public company is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders at this time.

In connection with the conclusion of the strategic review process, four members of the Board, Robert Dozier Jr., Jason Enoch, Alan Levine and James M. Pirrello, informed Michael Nieri, the controlling stockholder and Executive Chairman of the Company, that they were willing to remain on the Board so long as (i) the Company’s existing management team was fully empowered to execute on the Company’s strategic plan and (ii) Mr. Nieri stepped down from his position as Executive Chairman of the Company and agreed to forego any remaining cash compensation to which he would be entitled under his existing employment agreement, in furtherance of Company cost-saving initiatives. Mr. Nieri would not agree to the foregoing conditions. Accordingly, on October 19, 2025, the following members of the Board announced their intention to resign from the Board, effective no later than November 14, 2025, in the hope of facilitating an orderly transition by allowing the Company to timely file its upcoming quarterly report on Form 10-Q and enabling Mr. Nieri to identify new directors:

  • Robert Dozier Jr. (Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair, Audit Committee Member, Compensation Committee Member, Related Party Transactions Committee Member)
  • Jason Enoch (Audit Committee Chair, Related Party Transactions Committee Chair, Compensation Committee Member)
  • Alan Levine (Compensation Committee Chair, Audit Committee Member, Related Party Transactions Committee Member)
  • James M. Pirrello

The resignation letter submitted by the foregoing directors cited, among other reasons, the belief that the Company’s existing management team is better suited to help the Company navigate the current market environment and address the Company’s operational challenges without Mr. Nieri serving as Executive Chairman.

In addition, on October 19, 2025, Nikki R. Haley announced her intention to resign from the Board, effective no later than November 14, 2025, in the hope of facilitating an orderly transition by allowing the Company to timely file its upcoming quarterly report on Form 10-Q and enabling Mr. Nieri to identify new directors. At the time of Ambassador Haley’s resignation, Ambassador Haley served on the following committee of the Board:

  • Nikki R. Haley (Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Member)

The resignation letter submitted by Ambassador Haley cited her desire to focus on her other engagements and professional responsibilities.

Further, on October 19, 2025, James P. Clements announced his intention to resign from the Board, with such resignation to be effective immediately. At the time of Dr. Clements’ resignation, Dr. Clements served on the following committees of the Board:

  • James P. Clements (Compensation Committee Member, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Member)

The resignation letter submitted by Dr. Clements cited his desire to focus his time on his other professional obligations and responsibilities.

About United Homes Group, Inc.

The Company is a publicly traded residential builder headquartered near Columbia, SC. The Company focuses on southeastern markets with active communities in South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia.

The Company employs a land-light operating strategy with a focus on the design, construction and sale of entry-level, first, second and third move-up single-family houses. The Company principally builds detached single-family houses, and, to a lesser extent, attached single-family houses, including duplex houses and town houses. The Company seeks to operate its homebuilding business in high-growth markets, with substantial in-migrations and employment growth.

Under its land-light lot operating strategy, the Company controls its supply of finished building lots through lot option contracts with third parties, related parties, and land bank partners, which provide the Company with the right to purchase finished lots after they have been developed. This land-light operating strategy provides the Company with the ability to amass a pipeline of lots without the risks associated with acquiring and developing raw land.

As the Company reviews potential geographic markets into which it could expand its homebuilding business, it intends to focus on selecting markets with positive population and employment growth trends, favorable migration patterns, attractive housing affordability, low state and local income taxes, and desirable lifestyle and weather characteristics.
