Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
As disclosed in KB Home’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 28, 2026, on January 22, 2026, its board of directors (“board”) promoted Robert V. McGibney, then and currently President and Chief Operating Officer, to President and Chief Executive Officer, with Jeffrey T. Mezger, then and currently Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, transitioning to serve as Executive Chairman of the board, in each case effective March 1, 2026. This filing amends and supplements the prior Form 8-K with Mr. McGibney’s compensation as President and Chief Executive Officer, which had not been determined at the time the prior Form 8-K was filed. Other than as set forth herein, all information in the prior Form 8-K remains unchanged.
On February 20, 2026, the board’s management development and compensation committee (“committee”) approved the below compensation for Mr. McGibney, effective upon his promotion to President and Chief Executive Officer.
•A base salary of $1,000,000 per year.
•Eligibility to participate in KB Home’s annual incentive program for executive officers for the 2026 fiscal year with a target opportunity of 225% of his annual base salary and a maximum opportunity of three times his annual base salary, prorated based on the effective date of his promotion.
•Eligibility to participate in KB Home’s long term incentive program, plus a promotional grant of time-vesting restricted stock, with the grant value to be determined at the committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting in April.
•Continued participation in KB Home’s executive benefits and life insurance programs; Deferred Compensation Plan; 401(k) Savings Plan; Change in Control Severance Plan; and Executive Severance Plan.
Except as presented herein, for descriptions and copies of the plans and programs referenced above, please refer to KB Home’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and its most recent proxy statement.
The committee did not increase Mr. McGibney’s severance benefits under the Executive Severance Plan, but amended the plan to allow for Mr. McGibney’s continued participation in serving as President and Chief Executive Officer. The plan, as revised, is filed as Exhibit 10.26 to this report and is incorporated herein.
Based on the scope of his Executive Chairman duties, as described below, and in recognition of his tenure, institutional knowledge and importance to a smooth leadership transition, no changes were made to Mr. Mezger’s base salary and annual incentive compensation target in connection with the transition.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On February 20, 2026, the committee established certain duties for Mr. Mezger as Executive Chairman, a role in which he will be KB Home’s most senior executive officer, and for Mr. McGibney as President and Chief Executive Officer.
As Executive Chairman, Mr. Mezger will lead the board and coordinate its activities in conjunction with the lead independent director. He will also serve in a leadership role, overseeing KB Home’s growth, land and capital markets strategies, as well as its organizational structure, among other areas, to support Mr. McGibney’s smooth transition as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Mezger will also perform such other executive duties as the board may assign.
As President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. McGibney will supervise and direct KB Home’s business and affairs, reporting to the board; lead the management team and employees in executing KB Home’s operational strategies; and directly oversee KB Home’s senior corporate executive officers and all regional and divisional leadership.
