Focus on sustainability and corporate responsibility
Taylor Morrison’s disclosures place notable emphasis on sustainability, governance and social responsibility. The company publishes an annual Sustainability & Belonging Report, which it describes as detailing corporate responsibility initiatives and its commitment to building a more sustainable future. In a recent summary of that report, Taylor Morrison highlighted more robust reporting of environmental impact, including enhanced greenhouse gas inventory and lower average home energy consumption compared to a benchmark used in the Home Energy Rating System (HERS®) 2006 new home standard.

Capital structure and financing activities
As a public company in the construction sector, Taylor Morrison regularly engages in capital markets and credit facility transactions, which are documented in its SEC filings. Recent Form 8-K filings describe the issuance of senior notes due 2032 by its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Taylor Morrison Communities, Inc., guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries. The company has also conducted cash tender offers for outstanding senior notes due 2027 and completed related redemptions of various note series, using proceeds from new note offerings and cash on hand.
In addition, Taylor Morrison Communities, Inc. entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, providing for a revolving loan facility with a stated aggregate principal commitment and an uncommitted accordion feature. The credit agreement includes interest rate options based on a base rate or SOFR plus a margin, commitment fees on unused commitments, and customary financial and operational covenants. These covenants include limitations on creating liens, making certain investments, paying dividends or other restricted payments, engaging in specified transactions with affiliates, and changing the fiscal year, among others. The obligations under the credit agreement are unsecured but guaranteed by various entities within the Taylor Morrison credit group, subject to defined exceptions.
Governance and board composition
Taylor Morrison’s governance structure, as reflected in its SEC filings, includes a Board of Directors and standard board committees such as an Audit Committee. Recent filings report both the resignation of a director due to other commitments and the planned appointment of a new independent director, Amanda Whalen, to the Board and the Audit Committee. The company’s filings note that Ms. Whalen has been designated an "audit committee financial expert" under SEC rules and that she will receive standard compensation provided to independent directors, including cash retainers and equity awards in the form of restricted stock units, as well as eligibility to participate in the company’s non-employee deferred compensation plan.
These governance disclosures, along with the company’s emphasis on governance scores in external rankings, support Taylor Morrison’s positioning around corporate responsibility, board oversight and financial discipline. The company’s recognition in governance-focused rankings and its detailed reporting of board and committee changes provide investors with insight into how it manages oversight and risk.
Community engagement and philanthropic programs
Beyond its core homebuilding and development activities, Taylor Morrison highlights community engagement and philanthropic initiatives. One example is its annual Build Joy program, established in 2017, which supports holiday-inspired philanthropic projects proposed by team members. The company reports that over the life of the program it has donated funds to help bring more than one hundred philanthropic goals to fruition.
In a recent initiative under this program, Taylor Morrison partnered with Freed’s Bakery, a long-standing Las Vegas bakery, to create a limited-edition Build Joy Gingerbread House Kit. For each kit purchased, Taylor Morrison committed to donate a specified amount to a third-party nonprofit partner that provides mortgage assistance to homeowners in need. This initiative was framed as an extension of the company’s mission of "building joy" beyond its physical homes, especially for homeowners facing foreclosure pressures during the holiday season.
The company has also participated as the first official homebuilder for the ABC series reboot "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," where its team members and trade partners built homes for families and a wellness center for a community of homes serving patients of Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center. These examples illustrate how Taylor Morrison connects its homebuilding expertise with philanthropic and community-focused projects.
