General Counsel & Corporate Secretary: Good morning, and welcome to United Homes Group's Second Quarter of 2025 Earnings Call. Before the call begins, I would like to note that this call will include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. United Homes Group cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risk factors described by United Homes Group in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. Additionally, reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures discussed on this call to the most directly comparable GAAP measures can be accessed through the company's website and in its SEC filings. Hosting the call today are United Homes Group's Chief Executive Officer, Jack Micenko; and Chief Financial Officer, Keith Feldman. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to Jack.

Thank you, Erin, and good morning to everyone joining us on the call. Home sales revenue came in at $105.5 million on 303 new home deliveries at an average sales price of $349,000. Home sales gross margin for the quarter was 18.9%, representing a 100 basis point improvement over the second quarter of 2024 and counter to the broader industry trend. Net new orders declined 5.9% year- over-year, primarily due to a 10% decrease in average community count. Our sales pace was relatively consistent on a year-over-year basis, coming in at 1.9 homes per community per month. Overall, I'm pleased with our company's performance this quarter as we continue to navigate changing market conditions. Demand trends during the second quarter were inconsistent as homebuyers continue to weigh their desire for homeownership in the reality of high mortgage rates and concerns over affordability. On a positive note, we saw fairly resilient traffic patterns through the quarter, both online and in our communities, which we feel is a sign that buyers in our markets remain engaged and interested in buying a home provided it fits within their budget. We continue to offer mortgage rate buydowns and other financing incentives as a way to address affordability concerns with our buyers. Another way we combat the rising cost of homeownership is by keeping the price of our homes well below the industry average. In June, the median sales price of new homes sold in the U.S. was $402,000, an average of $501,000. This compares to United Homes average sales price of $349,000 in the second quarter. Keeping our home prices affordable for the vast majority of homebuyers in our markets continue to be a focus at our communities. Another focus for our company will be the continued rollout of our updated new home designs…

Thank you, Jack, and good morning. For the second quarter of 2025, we reported a net loss of $6.3 million, which includes a fair value adjustment of $6.2 million, primarily related to the accounting for the contingent earn-out liability, which fluctuates each quarter based on our ending stock price. The earn-out will be settled exclusively in common shares upon reaching certain stock price hurdles and will never result in a cash expense for the company. For the 6 months ended June 30, 2025, net income was $11.8 million, which included a change in fair value of $15 million, primarily related to the accounting for potential earn-out liabilities. As Jack mentioned, revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $105.5 million, a decrease of $3.9 million or 3.6% from $109.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. Revenue for the 6 months ended June 30, 2025, was $192.5 million compared to $210.3 million for the 6 months ended June 30, 2024. The year-over-year decline was primarily driven by lower home closings, partially offset by an increase in our average sales price. Home closings for the second quarter of 2025 totaled 303 homes, down from 337 homes in the prior year period. Home closings for the 6 months ended June 30, 2025, were 555 homes compared to 648 homes for the same period in 2024. Net new orders for the second quarter was 304 homes, down from 323 homes in the prior year period. Net new orders for the 6 months ended June 30, 2025, were 600 homes compared to 707 homes in 2024. Backlog as of June 30, 2025, stood at 202 homes, representing approximately $74.9 million in value. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $19.9 million, up $300,000 or 1.5% from $19.6 million in the prior year…
