Insights

TL;DR – Solid cash generation offsets margin squeeze and profit decline.

Revenue held up, but aggressive discounting cut residential gross margin to 30.4%, pulling EPS down 20% YoY. Cash conversion was excellent: $143 million operating inflow funded $25 million note repayment and repurchases without stressing liquidity. Debt/total cap is roughly 14%, giving room for land investment even after $60 million buy-backs. However, a 21% backlog contraction and lower ASP signal softer demand into H2. Net result is modestly negative near term, but balance-sheet strength limits downside.

TL;DR – Demand cooling, incentives rising; inventory and capital structure remain healthy.

Unit deliveries rose 6%, yet sales incentives required to achieve that growth pressured pricing and margins. Backlog erosion and a higher cancellation rate point to slower 2H closings unless incentives persist. Importantly, GRBK trimmed unsecured notes and virtually cleared its revolver, so interest exposure is minimal even if rates rise further. Shareholder returns via buy-backs are accretive given book value of $40/share versus $62 buy price, but ongoing margin compression could cap multiple expansion.
