Exhibit 99
GREEN BRICK PARTNERS, INC. REPORTS RECORD THIRD QUARTER 2024 RESULTS
HOME CLOSINGS REVENUE OF $523M, A RECORD FOR ANY THIRD QUARTER, UP 25.7% YOY
DILUTED EPS OF $1.98, A RECORD FOR ANY THIRD QUARTER, UP 26.9% YOY
NET NEW HOME ORDERS OF 877, A RECORD FOR ANY THIRD QUARTER, UP 11.3% YOY
DEBT TO TOTAL CAPITAL OF 16.4%; NET DEBT TO TOTAL CAPITAL OF 12.5%
PLANO, Texas, October 30, 2024 — Green Brick Partners, Inc. (NYSE: GRBK) (“we,” “Green Brick” or the “Company”), today reported record results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
“We are pleased to report that we completed our best third quarter in history, highlighted by 25.7% home closings revenues growth year-over-year. During the third quarter, we delivered 956 homes with an average selling price of $546,900, bringing total home closings revenues to $522.9 million. We continued to generate an industry-leading homebuilding gross margin of 32.7%. As a result, diluted EPS increased 27% year-over-year to $1.98 per share, a record for any third quarter. Our year-to-date diluted EPS of $6.12 is up 34.5% year-over year, another record for the company for any year-to-date period through the third quarter,” said Jim Brickman, CEO and Co-Founder.
“Net new orders in the third quarter picked up from the previous quarter and grew 11.3% year-over-year to 877 units,” continued Mr. Brickman. “We were pleased to see a rebound of traffic in September, particularly with Trophy Signature Homes (“Trophy”). Trophy’s net sales represented 52% of the total sales in third quarter vs 41% in the third quarter last year. This growth is a reflection of larger communities in which Trophy was selling in the third quarter and its growth in year-to-date starts, which have increased from 44% of Green Brick’s total starts through September 2023 to 50% of overall starts in 2024. We believe the demographic shifts and housing supply shortage will continue to bolster the industry, especially in our markets, over the long term and are confident Green Brick is well poised to capitalize on pent-up housing demand and industry tailwinds.”
Mr. Brickman added, “We expect to achieve record revenue for fiscal year 2024. This is a testament to our team and their operational effectiveness both currently and for the years prior as we have built out Green Brick’s foundation, including, at its core, our dedicated, experienced, and skilled employees. This is particularly rewarding as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of Green Brick as a public homebuilding company on October 27th. Reflecting the strength of our team, our active selling communities and homes under construction as of the end of the third quarter are up year-over-year 23% and 21%, respectively. We believe our superior land and lot positions will continue to serve as the springboard for our growth. Over 80% of our revenue year-to-date was generated in infill and infill adjacent submarkets where supply is more limited. Our year-to-date homebuilding gross margin of 33.6% is up 290 bps and reflects a record for any year in our history through the third quarter. With the ability to self-develop our lots, we expect finished lot costs as a percentage of home closings revenue to remain essentially flat for 2024 and 2025.”
“Green Brick’s distinctive business model and strategy have yielded impressive results over the past decade. This has translated into exceptional returns for our stockholders, even while carrying land and lots on our balance sheet. Our year-to-date return on equity is 27.0%. This success is underpinned by our conservative balance sheet and financial discipline,” concluded Mr. Brickman. “At the end of the third quarter, our net debt to total capital ratio was 12.5% and our total debt to total capital ratio was only 16.4% with a weighted average pay rate of 3.4%. As we look ahead to the next decade, we remain committed to investing in our business and people to strengthen our platform and propel our growth.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, we utilize certain financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We present these measures because we believe they and similar measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance and financing structure. We also believe these measures facilitate the comparison of our operating performance and financing structure with other companies in our industry. Because these measures are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The following table represents the non-GAAP measure of adjusted homebuilding gross margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 and reconciles these amounts to homebuilding gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
