Third quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2025 were $591 million, or $2.29 per diluted share, compared to third quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2024 of $1.2 billion, or $4.26 per diluted share. Excluding mark-to-market gains of $99 million on technology investments, third quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2025 were $516 million, or $2.00 per diluted share. Excluding mark-to-market gains of $39 million on technology investments and one-time items of $89 million in the Company's Multifamily segment, third quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2024 were $1.1 billion or $3.90 per diluted share. Stuart Miller, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of Lennar, said, “Our third quarter results reflect both the continued pressures of today’s housing market and the consistency of Lennar’s operating strategy. This quarter, we delivered 21,584 homes and recorded 23,004 new orders. Achieving these results required additional incentives, resulting in a reduced average sales price of $383,000, and our gross margin drifted down to 17.5%, while our SG&A expenses came in at 8.2%, reflecting the soft market conditions.” Mr. Miller continued, “While our current results reflect incentives and price adjustments to match market conditions, our scale and technology investments are building the foundation for structural cost efficiencies. Backed by a strong balance sheet and disciplined execution, we remain confident in our ability to build margin as conditions stabilize and to create sustained value.” Jon Jaffe, Lennar’s Co-Chief Executive Officer and President, added, “During the quarter, we achieved a starts pace and sales pace of 4.4 homes and 4.7 homes per community per month, respectively, as we used targeted incentives, including mortgage rate buydowns, to sustain momentum. Additionally, we carefully managed our inventory levels, ending the quarter with fewer than two completed, unsold homes per active community, which is within our historical range. Inventory turns improved to 1.9 times, and cycle time improved to 126 days, the shortest cycle time we’ve ever experienced. This reflects the impact of our production-first approach and continued successful negotiations with our trade partners. These efficiency gains, together with our digital marketing and land-management initiatives, position us to deliver consistent volume, support affordability, and drive further improvements in our cost structure.” Mr. Miller concluded, “Interest rates remained elevated throughout the third quarter, but then declined towards the quarter’s end. This downward trend, paired with the Fed’s recent rate cut, gives us optimism as we head into the fourth quarter. Therefore, we believe that now is a good time to moderate our volume and allow the market to catch up. Accordingly, for the fourth quarter of 2025, we expect new orders of 20,000 - 21,000 homes, deliveries of 22,000 - 23,000 homes, and gross margin of approximately 17.5%, consistent with the third quarter, depending on market conditions.” “Looking ahead, the long-term need for housing remains, and we are committed to meeting affordability, sustaining even-flow production, and lowering costs through efficiency and scale.” 3-3-3 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2025 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2024 As previously announced on February 10, 2025, Lennar Corporation completed its acquisition of Rausch Coleman Homes. Prior year information includes only stand-alone data for Lennar Corporation for the three months ended August 31, 2024. Homebuilding Revenues from home sales decreased 9% in the third quarter of 2025 to $8.2 billion from $9.0 billion in the third quarter of 2024. Revenues were lower primarily due to a 9% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered. New home deliveries were 21,584 homes in the third quarter of 2025, compared to 21,516 homes in the third quarter of 2024. The average sales price of homes delivered was $383,000 in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $422,000 in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in average sales price of homes delivered in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to continued weakness in the market. Gross margins on home sales were $1.4 billion, or 17.5% , in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $2.0 billion, or 22.5%, in the third quarter of 2024. During the third quarter of 2025, gross margins decreased primarily due to a lower revenue per square foot and higher land costs year over year, which were partially offset by a decrease in construction costs, reflecting the Company’s continued focus on cost-saving initiatives. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $676 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $601 million in the third quarter of 2024. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 8.2% in the third quarter of 2025, from 6.7% in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to less leverage as a result of lower revenues and an increase in marketing and selling expenses. Financial Services Operating earnings for the Financial Services segment were $177 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $144 million in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in operating earnings was primarily due to higher profit per locked loan in the mortgage business as a result of higher margins. Ancillary Businesses Operating loss for the Multifamily segment was $16 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to operating earnings of $79 million in the third quarter of 2024, which was positively impacted by a $179 million one-time net gain from the sale of assets in the Company's LMV Fund I, partially offset by a one-time $90 million write-down of non-core assets. Operating earnings for the Lennar Other segment were $62 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to operating earnings of $20 million in the third quarter of 2024. The Lennar Other operating earnings for both the third quarter of 2025 and 2024 were primarily related to mark-to-market gains on technology investments. 4-4-4 Tax Rate In the third quarter of 2025 and 2024, the Company had tax provisions of $191 million and $348 million, which resulted in an overall effective income tax rate of 24.4% and 23.0%, respectively. For both periods, the Company's effective income tax rate included state income tax expense and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by tax credits. The increase in the effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2025 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a decrease in tax credits. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act") was enacted, introducing various changes to U.S. federal tax law. The Company does not expect the Act to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2025 and is currently evaluating the potential impact of the Act on its future periods. Share Repurchases In the third quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 4.1 million shares of its common stock for $507 million at an average share price of $122.97. Guidance The following are the Company's expected results of its homebuilding and financial services activities for the fourth quarter of 2025: New Orders 20,000 - 21,000 Deliveries 22,000 - 23,000 Average Sales Price $380,000 - $390,000 Gross Margin % on Home Sales Approximately 17.5% - consistent with third quarter SG&A as a % of Home Sales 7.8% - 8.0% Financial Services Operating Earnings $130 million - $135 million 5-5-5 About Lennar Lennar Corporation, founded in 1954, is one of the nation’s leading builders of quality homes for all generations.

(2) EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as earnings before interest and taxes. This financial measure has been presented because the Company finds it important and useful in evaluating its performance and believes that it helps readers of the Company's financial statements compare its operations with those of its competitors. Although management finds EBIT to be an important measure in conducting and evaluating the Company's operations, this measure has limitations as an analytical tool as it is not reflective of the actual profitability generated by the Company during the period. Management compensates for the limitations of using EBIT by using this non-GAAP measure only to supplement the Company's GAAP results. Due to the limitations discussed, EBIT should not be viewed in isolation, as it is not a substitute for GAAP measures. 7-7-7 LENNAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Segment Information (In thousands) (unaudited) Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Homebuilding revenues: Sales of homes $ 8,213,580 9,017,627 23,242,401 24,277,158 Sales of land 30,521 19,466 109,042 53,816 Other homebuilding 9,574 8,599 29,964 26,768 Total homebuilding revenues 8,253,675 9,045,692 23,381,407 24,357,742 Homebuilding costs and expenses: Costs of homes sold 6,779,563 6,989,603 19,070,239 18,855,087 Costs of land sold 41,065 22,720 133,315 43,640 Selling, general and administrative 676,491 600,719 1,981,077 1,798,306 Total homebuilding costs and expenses 7,497,119 7,613,042 21,184,631 20,697,033 Homebuilding net margins 756,556 1,432,650 2,196,776 3,660,709 Homebuilding equity in earnings from unconsolidated entities 10,190 25,220 62,910 54,038 Homebuilding other income (expense), net (6,961) 20,048 37,606 132,122 Homebuilding operating earnings $ 759,785 1,477,918 2,297,292 3,846,869 Financial Services revenues $ 314,195 273,270 889,370 804,713 Financial Services costs and expenses 136,323 128,870 410,735 382,005 Financial Services operating earnings $ 177,872 144,400 478,635 422,708 Multifamily revenues $ 228,465 93,443 521,966 322,620 Multifamily costs and expenses 238,791 184,708 566,844 419,580 Multifamily equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities and other income (expense), net (6,145) 170,173 13,630 139,755 Multifamily operating earnings (loss) $ (16,471) 78,908 (31,248) 42,795 Lennar Other revenues $ 13,943 3,637 26,582 9,489 Lennar Other costs and expenses 45,450 17,176 99,039 53,105 Lennar Other equity in loss from unconsolidated entities and other (5,218) (5,489) (14,503) (17,273) Lennar Other realized and unrealized gains from technology investments (1) 99,223 39,123 7,280 12,472 Lennar Other operating earnings (loss) $ 62,498 20,095 (79,680) (48,417) (1) The following is a detail of Lennar Other realized and unrealized gains from mark-to-market adjustments on technology investments: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended August 31, August 31, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Blend Labs (BLND) $ — 2,270 (3,737) 5,921 Hippo (HIPO) 27,754 6,609 (598) 33,795 Opendoor (OPEN) 71,345 (564) 39,638 (16,156) SmartRent (SMRT) — (5,634) (4,483) (12,206) Sonder (SOND) — 71 (19) 82 Sunnova (NOVA) 124 36,371 (23,521) 1,036 $ 99,223 39,123 7,280 12,472 8-8-8 LENNAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Summary of Deliveries, New Orders and Backlog (Dollars in thousands, except average sales price) (unaudited) Lennar's reportable homebuilding segments and all other homebuilding operations not required to be reported separately have divisions located in: East: Florida, New Jersey and Pennsylvania Central: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Minnesota, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia South Central: Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas West: Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington Other: Urban divisions Three Months Ended August 31, 2025 2024 2025 2024 2025 2024 Deliveries: Homes Dollar Value Average Sales Price East 4,770 5,270 $ 1,744,875 2,108,031 $ 366,000 400,000 Central 5,469 5,510 2,072,731 2,202,207 379,000 400,000 South Central 6,413 5,067 1,507,314 1,283,781 235,000 253,000 West 4,926 5,663 2,950,118 3,470,255 599,000 613,000 Other 6 6 3,622 3,225 604,000 538,000 Total 21,584 21,516 $ 8,278,660 9,067,499 $ 383,000 422,000 Of the total homes delivered listed above, 146 homes with a dollar value of $65 million and an average sales price of $446,000 represent homes from unconsolidated entities for the three months ended August 31, 2025, compared to 124 homes with a dollar value of $50 million and an average sales price of $402,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2024.

The Company believes the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capital is a relevant and a useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in homebuilding operations. However, because net homebuilding debt to total capital is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, this financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures prescribed by GAAP. Rather, this non-GAAP financial measure should be used to supplement the Company's GAAP results.
