“Smith Douglas Homes closed out 2025 on a strong note, delivering record full-year closings and finishing the fourth quarter with both deliveries and gross margin above our stated guidance range,” said Greg Bennett, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Despite a challenging selling environment marked by affordability pressures and aggressive competitive discounting, our teams remained disciplined in maintaining sales pace and operational efficiency while continuing to position the Company for long-term growth.”

Russ Devendorf, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer added, “Sales conditions remained somewhat inconsistent late in the year as affordability pressures continued to impact demand. That said, we have seen encouraging traffic and order activity in early 2026 as we enter the spring selling season. While week-to-week variability remains, we continue to manage pricing and incentives at the community level to support sales pace and maintain the efficiency of our operating platform.”

Mr. Devendorf continued, “Our strategy remains centered on disciplined growth, affordable home offerings, and thoughtful capital deployment across both existing and new markets. We will continue to evaluate investments opportunistically while maintaining our conservative approach to land and leverage.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), this press release includes net debt-to-net book capitalization and adjusted net income.
Net debt-to-net book capitalization
Net debt-to-net book capitalization is a supplemental measure of our leverage that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to debt-to-book capitalization or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definition of net debt-to-net book capitalization may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by our competitors because not all companies and analysts calculate this non-GAAP financial measure in the same manner. We present this non-GAAP financial measure because we consider it to be an important supplemental measure of our leverage and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.
We define net debt-to-net book capitalization as:
•Total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, divided by
•Total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, plus equity.
This non-GAAP financial measure has limitations as an analytical tool in that it subtracts cash and cash equivalents and therefore may imply that the Company has less debt than the most comparable measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Because of this limitation, this non-GAAP financial measure should be considered along with other financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted net income
Adjusted net income is not a measure of net income or net income margin as determined by GAAP. Adjusted net income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies. We define adjusted net income as net income adjusted for the tax impact using a 24.6% federal and state blended tax rate (assuming 100% public ownership to adjust for the impact of taxes on earnings attributable to Smith Douglas Holdings LLC as if Smith Douglas Holdings LLC was a subchapter C corporation in the periods presented).
Management believes adjusted net income is useful because it allows management to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and comparability to industry peers who record income tax expense on their income before tax as opposed to the income of Smith Douglas Holdings LLC not being taxed at the entity level and, therefore, not reflecting a charge against earnings for income tax expense. Adjusted net income should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our computation of adjusted net income may not be comparable to adjusted net income of other companies. We present adjusted net income because we believe it provides useful information regarding our comparability to peers.
The following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted net income to the GAAP financial measure of net income for each of the periods indicated:
