We have land banking arrangements, whereby we sell our land parcels to a land banker and they provide us an option to purchase back finished lots on a predetermined schedule. Because of our options to repurchase these parcels, for accounting purposes in accordance with ASC 606, these transactions are considered a financing rather than a sale. Our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of April 30, 2026 and October 31, 2025, included inventory of $296.1 million and $258.6 million, respectively, recorded to “Consolidated inventory not owned” with a corresponding amount of $180.2 million and $169.1 million (net of debt issuance costs), respectively, recorded to “Liabilities from inventory not owned” for the amount of net cash received from the transactions.
