Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our 2024 Form 10-K.
Outlook
In the second quarter of 2025, our company navigated through a challenging economic environment. Despite these challenges, we remained steadfast in our strategy to drive volume and growth, matching production and sales pace while using margin as the shock absorber to enable affordability and avoid the build-up of excess inventory. Our focus on volume and even-flow production enabled us to re-rationalize our cost structure in order to find a floor and rebuild margin even as the overall housing market continues to soften.
The macroeconomic landscape remains challenging, with higher mortgage interest rates and diminished consumer confidence being affected by a wide range of uncertainties, both domestic and global. At the same time, supply remains constrained by years of underproduction. New construction has slowed as builders have pulled back on production due to mixed demand signals, exacerbating the chronic supply shortage. Additionally, restrictive land permitting, along with higher impact fees, remain as constraints on supply, while labor and material costs, and costs of lumber, in particular, are generally increasing. Demand, however, is still high, as people want and need homes. Millennials are reaching the prime buying age and are realizing the benefit, and perhaps importance, of homeownership. But affordability and waning confidence are sending confusing signals. Actionable demand continues to cool. This is a difficult cycle, as low supply fuels high prices which lock out many of our homebuyers.
Our operational strategy is clear: we are building and delivering consistent volume by meeting the market at affordability and pushing efficiencies through our platform. We strongly believe this will produce greater efficiencies and drive down costs. Financially, we are focused on driving an efficient, land-light balance sheet to effectively have land banks and third parties hold and develop our land assets while we build cash flow. We have intentionally maintained volume rather than protecting our margin. In the past, we protected margin as market conditions slowed. However, we have learned that once we step backwards and lose momentum, it becomes difficult to restart and recapture volume. The recovery is difficult and expensive, and we end up coming back as the exact same company that we were before, with no significant changes for the future. We believe we are starting to see a bottom in the free fall in our margin that began with the spike in interest rates in 2022. Our construction costs have decreased over the past two and a half years, and we believe our margins will stabilize as we use our growing volume to work with our trade partners to reduce costs and build efficiencies.
With regard to our financial strategy of driving a land-light balance sheet, the Millrose spin-off was a critical part of this strategy, but there is more to accomplish. Predictable volume creates greater certainty for the capital markets and will help build more capital-efficient land banking vehicles to interface with our business. We are continuing to drive certainty with dependable volume for our land banking partners. That dependability will translate into certainty and predictability for us.
Additionally, this part of our strategy benefits from efficiencies derived from our technology-enabled solutions. We have spent considerable time working with, investing in, and exploring technology, and we believe that productivity and efficiencies can be significantly enhanced when these solutions achieve company-wide adoption. But modern technology is not plug-and-play. It requires substantial monetary investment, management time, and widespread engagement.
Looking ahead to the third quarter of 2025, we anticipate selling and delivering between 22,000 and 23,000 homes. Our average sales price is expected to be between $380,000 and $385,000, as we continue to see pricing pressure on homes sold during the quarter. We are focused on driving sales and closings and maintaining strong current cash flow even at reduced profitability. We expect our margin to come in at approximately 18%, depending on market conditions. For the full year, we expect to deliver at the low end of our previously stated range of 86,000 to 88,000 homes in 2025.
While the short-term road ahead may seem choppy, we are optimistic about our future. We are well-prepared with a strong national footprint, increasing community count, and growing volume. Our strong balance sheet and land banking relationships, along with our technology-enabled solutions, will afford us flexibility and advantaged opportunities for strategic growth.

(1) Results of Operations
Overview
We historically have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, variability in quarterly results. Our results of operations for the three and six months ended May 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Our homebuilding business is seasonal in nature and generally reflects higher levels of new home order activity in our second and third fiscal quarters and increased deliveries in the second half of our fiscal year. However, a variety of factors can alter seasonal patterns.
Our net earnings attributable to Lennar were $477.4 million, or $1.81 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025, compared to our second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2024 of $954.3 million, or $3.45 per diluted share. Excluding mark-to-market losses on technology investments, second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2025 were $499.5 million, or $1.90 per diluted share. Excluding mark-to-market losses on technology investments and one-time gain on the sale of a technology investment, our second quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2024 were $935.3 million or $3.38 per diluted share.

On February 10, 2025, we completed our acquisition of Rausch Coleman Homes ("Rausch"). Prior year information includes only stand-alone data for Lennar Corporation for the three and six months ended May 31, 2024.
Three Months Ended May 31, 2025 versus Three Months Ended May 31, 2024
Revenues from home sales decreased 7% in the second quarter of 2025 to $7.8 billion from $8.4 billion in the second quarter of 2024. Revenues were lower primarily due to a 9% decrease in the average sales price of homes delivered, partially offset by a 2% increase in the number of home deliveries. New home deliveries increased to 20,131 homes in the second quarter of 2025 from 19,690 homes in the second quarter of 2024. The average sales price of homes delivered was $389,000 in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $426,000 in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in average sales price of homes delivered in the second 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 17.8% (18.0% excluding purchase accounting), in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.9 billion, or 22.6%, in the second quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2025, gross margins decreased due to an increase in land costs year over year, as well as a decrease in revenue per square foot, which was partially offset by a decrease in construction costs as we continue to focus on construction cost savings.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $688.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $629.6 million in the second quarter of 2024. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 8.8% in the second quarter of 2025, from 7.5% in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to less leverage as a result of lower revenues and an increase in marketing and selling expenses.
During the three months ended May 31, 2025, our homebuilding operating earnings included $13.8 million of interest income, compared to $43.2 million of interest income in the three months ended May 31, 2024. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to lower cash balances year over year.
Operating earnings for the Financial Services segment were $156.6 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $146.3 million in the second 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.
Operating loss for the Multifamily segment was $14.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to an operating loss of $20.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. Operating loss for the Lennar Other segment was $52.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to an operating loss of $27.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. The Lennar Other operating loss
34
for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to losses on our technology investments. The Lennar Other operating loss for the second quarter of 2024 includes $21.5 million of mark-to-market losses on our publicly traded technology investments and a $46.5 million one-time gain on the sale of a technology investment.
In the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, we had tax provisions of $160.1 million and $300.5 million, which resulted in an overall effective income tax rate of 25.1% and 23.9%, respectively. For both periods, our 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 in the second quarter of 2025 from the prior year was primarily due to a decrease in solar tax credits.
Six Months Ended May 31, 2025 versus Six Months Ended May 31, 2024
Revenues from home sales were $15.0 billion and $15.3 billion in the six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Revenues were flat primarily because of a 4% increase in the number of home deliveries, which was offset by a 5% decrease in average sales price of home deliveries. New home deliveries increased to 37,965 homes in the six months ended May 31, 2025 from 36,488 homes in the six months ended May 31, 2024. The average sales price of homes delivered was $398,000 in the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to $420,000 in the six months ended May 31, 2024. The decrease in average sales price of homes delivered in the six months ended May 31, 2025 compared to the same period last year was primarily due to continued weakness in the market.
Gross margins on home sales were $2.7 billion, or 18.2% (18.4% excluding purchase accounting), in the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to $3.4 billion, or 22.2%, in the six months ended May 31, 2024. During the six months ended May 31, 2025, gross margins decreased due to an increase in land costs year over year, as well as a decrease in revenue per square foot, which was partially offset by a decrease in construction costs as we continue to focus on construction cost savings.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.3 billion in the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to $1.2 billion in the six months ended May 31, 2024. As a percentage of revenues from home sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 8.7% in the six months ended May 31, 2025, from 7.8% in the six months ended May 31, 2024, primarily due to less leverage as a result of lower revenues and an increase in marketing and selling expenses.
During the six months ended May 31, 2025, our homebuilding operating earnings included $37.0 million of interest income, compared to $100.8 million of interest income in the six months ended May 31, 2024. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to lower cash balances year over year.
Operating earnings for the Financial Services segment were $299.5 million in the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to $276.9 million in the six months ended May 31, 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.
Operating loss for the Multifamily segment was $14.5 million in the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to operating loss of $35.9 million in the six months ended May 31, 2024. Operating loss for the Lennar Other segment was $142.2 million in the six months ended May 31, 2025, compared to operating loss of $67.4 million in the six months ended May 31, 2024. The Lennar Other operating loss for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to losses on our technology investments. The Lennar Other operating loss for the six months ended May 31, 2024 included $26.7 million of mark-to-market losses on our publicly traded technology investments and a $46.5 million one-time gain on the sale of a technology investment.
For the six months ended May 31, 2025 and 2024, we had tax provisions of $329.6 million and $511.3 million, respectively, which resulted in overall effective income tax rates of 24.8% and 23.4%, respectively. For both periods, our 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 in the six months ended May 31, 2025 from the prior year was primarily due to a decrease in excess tax benefits from share-based compensation and a decrease in solar tax credits.

Backlog represents the number of homes under sales contracts. Homes are sold using sales contracts, which are generally accompanied by sales deposits. In some instances, purchasers are permitted to cancel sales contracts if they fail to qualify for financing or under certain other circumstances. Various state and federal laws and regulations may sometimes give purchasers a right to cancel contracts homes in backlog. We do not recognize revenue on homes under sales contracts until the sales are closed and title passes to the new homeowners.

(1) Net homebuilding debt to total capital is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net homebuilding debt (homebuilding debt less homebuilding cash and cash equivalents) divided by total capital (net homebuilding debt plus stockholders' equity). We believe 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 our GAAP results.
At May 31, 2025, Homebuilding debt to total capital was higher compared to November 30, 2024, primarily as a result of a decrease in stockholders' equity due to the spin-off of Millrose, share repurchases, issuance of senior notes and outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility, partially offset by net earnings and a decrease in Homebuilding debt due to debt paydowns. At May 31, 2025, Homebuilding debt to total capital was higher compared to May 31, 2024, primarily as a result of a decrease in stockholders' equity due to the spin-off of Millrose, share repurchases, issuance of senior notes and outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility, partially offset by net earnings and a decrease in Homebuilding debt due to debt paydowns.

We are continually exploring various types of transactions to manage our leverage and liquidity positions, take advantage of market opportunities and increase our revenues and earnings. These transactions may include the issuance of additional indebtedness, the repurchase of our outstanding indebtedness, the repurchase of our common stock, the acquisition of homebuilders and other companies, the purchase or sale of assets or lines of business, the issuance of common stock, strategic transactions to accelerate our land light strategy or securities convertible into shares of common stock, and/or the pursuit of other financing alternatives. In connection with some of our non-homebuilding businesses, we are also considering other types of transactions such as sales, restructurings, and joint ventures as we continue to move towards being a pure play homebuilding company.
On February 7, 2025, we successfully completed the taxable spin-off of Millrose from Lennar through a distribution of approximately 80% of Millrose's stock to our stockholders. We temporarily retain, but do not vote, the remaining 20% of the total outstanding shares of Millrose common stock, which we expect to dispose of through a subsequent spin-off, split-off, public offering, private sale or any combination of these potential transactions later in the year. In connection with the spin-off, we contributed to Millrose $5.6 billion in land assets and cash of $1.0 billion, which included $584 million of cash deposits related to option contracts. The spin-off transaction accelerates our longstanding strategy of becoming a pure-play, asset-light, new home manufacturing company.
On February 10, 2025, we acquired Rausch, a residential homebuilder based in Fayetteville, Arkansas. We acquired Rausch’s homebuilding operations while Millrose acquired Rausch's land assets and we have options on the land. With this acquisition, we have expanded our footprint into new markets in Arkansas (Bentonville/Fayetteville, Little Rock and Jonesboro), Oklahoma (Tulsa and Stillwater), Alabama (Birmingham and Tuscaloosa), and Kansas/Missouri (Kansas City), while adding to our existing footprint in Texas (Houston and San Antonio), Oklahoma (Oklahoma City), Alabama (Huntsville) and Florida (Gulf Coast).
Our Homebuilding senior notes and other debt payable as well as letters of credit and surety bonds are summarized within Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Our Homebuilding average debt outstanding and the average rates of interest was as follows:
Six Months Ended May 31,
(Dollars in thousands) 2025 2024
Homebuilding average debt outstanding $ 2,528,378 2,640,040
Average interest rate 4.9% 4.8%
Interest incurred $ 73,335 70,275
In May 2025, we issued $700 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.20% senior notes due 2030 (the "5.20% senior notes") at a price of 99.969% of the principal amount. Proceeds from the offering, after payment of expenses, totaled $695.6 million. The 5.20% Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated, but are guaranteed by substantially all of our 100% owned homebuilding subsidiaries. Interest on the 5.20% Senior Notes is due semi-annually beginning January 30, 2026.
We utilized the net proceeds from the sale of the 5.20% senior notes primarily to pay off $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.75% senior notes due May 2025. The redemption price, which was paid in cash, was 100% of the principal amount outstanding.
In May 2025, we entered into a new unsecured delayed draw term loan facility with an initial committed borrowing availability of approximately $1.6 billion (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility”), which can be increased by an additional $500 million via an accordion feature. The credit agreement governing our new unsecured Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility permits us to draw up to six times in the first 180 days after the effective date of the credit agreement or May 2028. Once drawn, we may at any time prepay the loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. The term loan’s maturity date is three years from the initial effectiveness date of the credit agreement, and at our discretion, it can be extended for an additional year, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Under the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility, interest rates equal the
43
adjusted term SOFR determined for the interest period plus the applicable margin. As of May 31, 2025, there were no borrowings under the credit agreement governing the new unsecured Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility.
The maximum available borrowings on our Credit Facility were as follows:
(In thousands) At May 31, 2025
Commitments - maturing in May 2027 $ 225,000
Commitments - maturing in November 2029 2,800,000
Total commitments $ 3,025,000
Accordion feature 475,000
Total maximum borrowings capacity $ 3,500,000
The proceeds available under the Credit Facility, which are subject to specified conditions for borrowing, may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. In the first quarter of 2025, we received an additional $150 million in commitments. The Credit Facility also provides that up to $477.5 million in commitments may be used for letters of credit. The maturity, debt covenants and details of the Credit Facility are unchanged from the disclosure in the Financial Condition and Capital Resources section in our 2024 Form 10-K. In addition to the Credit Facility, we have other letter of credit facilities with different financial institutions.
Under the agreements governing our Credit Facility and Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility, we are required to maintain a minimum consolidated tangible net worth, a maximum leverage ratio and either a liquidity or an interest coverage ratio. These ratios are calculated per the Credit Facility and Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility agreements , which involve adjustments to GAAP financial measures. We believe we were in compliance with our debt covenants as of May 31, 2025. The following summarizes our debt covenant requirements and our actual levels or ratios with respect to those covenants as calculated per the Credit Facility and Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility agreements as of May 31, 2025:
(Dollars in thousands) Covenant Level Level Achieved as of
May 31, 2025
Minimum net worth test $ 10,000,000 16,545,782
Maximum leverage ratio 60.0% 12.4%

Financial Services Warehouse Facilities
Our Financial Services segment uses residential mortgage loan warehouse facilities to finance its residential lending activities until the mortgage loans are sold to investors and the proceeds are collected. The facilities are non-recourse to us and are expected to be renewed or replaced with other facilities when they mature. The LMF Commercial warehouse facilities finance LMF Commercial loan origination and securitization activities and are secured by up to 80% interests in the originated commercial loans financed. These facilities and the related borrowings and collateral are detailed in Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Changes in Capital Structure
In January 2024, our Board of Directors authorized an increase to our stock repurchase program to enable us to repurchase up to an additional $5 billion in value of our outstanding Class A or Class B common stock. Repurchases are authorized to be made in open-market or private transactions. The repurchase authorization has no expiration date. At May 31, 2025, we have a remaining authorization to repurchase $2.2 billion in value of our Class A or Class B common stock. The details of our Class A and Class B common stock repurchases under the authorized repurchase program for the six months ended May 31, 2025 and May 31, 2024 are included in Note 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
During the six months ended May 31, 2025, treasury shares increased by 10.6 million shares primarily due to our repurchase of 9.9 million shares of Class A and Class B common stock through our stock repurchase program. During the six months ended May 31, 2024, treasury shares increased by 7.8 million shares primarily due to our repurchase of 7.2 million shares of Class A and Class B common stock through our stock repurchase program.
On February 7, 2025, we distributed a stock dividend consisting of 120,980,401 shares of Millrose Class A common stock and 11,819,811 shares of Millrose Class B common stock (representing approximately 80% of the total outstanding shares of Millrose common stock) to the holders of Lennar Class A or Class B common stock as of the close of business on January 21, 2025, the record date of the Millrose spin-off.
On June 19, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.50 per share on both our Class A and Class B common stock, payable on July 18, 2025 to holders of record at the close of business on July 3, 2025. On May 7, 2025, we paid a quarterly cash dividend of 0.50 per share for both our Class A and Class B common stock to holders of record at the close of business day April 23, 2025. We approved and paid cash dividends of $0.50 per share for each of the four quarters of 2024 for both our Class A and Class B common stock.
Based on our current financial condition and credit relationships, we believe that our operations and borrowing resources will provide for our current and long-term capital requirements at our anticipated levels of activity.
Supplemental Financial Information
Our outstanding senior notes are guaranteed by certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are primarily homebuilding subsidiaries. These guarantees are full and unconditional. The guarantors of our senior notes are currently those subsidiaries that also guarantee Lennar Corporation's letter of credit facilities and its Credit Facility, which is disclosed in Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Under the indentures governing our senior notes, guarantees may be suspended or released under certain circumstances.
Supplemental information for the Obligors, which excludes non-guarantor subsidiaries and intercompany transactions, at May 31, 2025 is included in the following tables. Intercompany balances and transactions within the Obligors have been eliminated and amounts attributable to the Obligors' investment in consolidated subsidiaries that have not issued or guaranteed the senior notes have been excluded. Amounts due from and transactions with nonobligor subsidiaries and related parties are separately disclosed:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We regularly monitor the results of our Homebuilding, Multifamily and Lennar Other unconsolidated joint ventures and any trends that may affect their future liquidity or results of operations. We also monitor the performance of joint ventures in which we have investments on a regular basis to assess compliance with debt covenants. For those joint ventures not in compliance with the debt covenants, we evaluate and assess possible impairment of our investments. We believe that substantially all of the joint ventures were in compliance with applicable debt covenants at May 31, 2025.
Homebuilding: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
As of May 31, 2025, we had equity investments in 54 active Homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities (of which 4 had recourse debt, 14 had non-recourse debt and 36 had no debt) compared to 51 active Homebuilding and land unconsolidated entities at November 30, 2024. Historically, we have invested in unconsolidated entities that acquired and developed land (1) for our homebuilding operations or for sale to third parties or (2) for the construction of homes for sale to third-party homebuyers. Through these entities, we have primarily sought to reduce and share our risk by limiting the amount of our capital invested in land, while obtaining access to potential future homesites and allowing us to participate in strategic ventures. The use of these entities also, in some instances, has enabled us to acquire land to which we could not otherwise obtain access, or could not obtain access on as favorable terms, without the participation of a strategic partner. Participants in these joint ventures have been land owners/developers, other homebuilders and financial or strategic partners. Joint ventures with land owners/developers have given us access to homesites owned or controlled by our partners. Joint ventures with other homebuilders have provided us with the ability to bid jointly with our partners for large land parcels. Joint ventures with financial partners have allowed us to combine our homebuilding expertise with access to our partners’ capital. Joint ventures with strategic partners have allowed us to combine our homebuilding expertise with the specific expertise (e.g. commercial or infill experience) of our partners. Each joint venture is governed by an executive committee consisting of members from each partner. Details regarding these investments, balances and debt are included in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following table summarizes the principal maturities of our Homebuilding unconsolidated entities (“JVs”) debt as per current debt arrangements as of May 31, 2025. It does not represent estimates of future cash payments that will be made to reduce debt balances. Many JV loans have extension options in the loan agreements that would allow the loans to be extended into future years.

We own an approximately 40% interest in FivePoint Holdings, LLC., a NYSE listed company, and companies it manages, which own three large multi-use properties in California.
We temporarily hold an approximately 20% investment in the total outstanding shares of Millrose common stock, which we expect to dispose of through a subsequent spin-off, split-off, public offering, private sale or any combination of these potential transactions later in the year.
Multifamily: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
At May 31, 2025, Multifamily had equity investments in 25 active unconsolidated entities that are engaged in multifamily residential developments (of which 17 had non-recourse debt and 8 had no debt) compared to 23 active unconsolidated entities at November 30, 2024. We invest in unconsolidated entities that acquire and develop land to construct multifamily rental properties. Through these entities, we are focusing on developing a geographically diversified portfolio of institutional quality multifamily rental properties in select U.S. markets. Initially, we participated in building multifamily developments and selling them soon after they were completed. Participants in these joint ventures have been financial partners. Joint ventures with financial partners have allowed us to combine our development and construction expertise with access to our partners’ capital. Each joint venture is governed by an operating agreement that provides significant substantive participating voting rights on major decisions to our partners.
The Multifamily segment includes LMV I, LMV II, the CPPIB Fund and the Institutional JV, which are long-term multifamily development investment vehicles involved in the development and construction of class-A multifamily assets. Details of each fund as of and during the six months ended May 31, 2025 are included in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Lennar Other: Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
As part of the sale of the Rialto investment and asset management platform, we retained the right to receive a portion of payments with regard to carried interests if certain funds meet specified performance thresholds. We periodically receive advance distributions related to the carried interests in order to cover income tax obligations resulting from allocations of taxable income to the carried interests. These distributions are not subject to clawbacks but reduce future carried interest payments to which we become entitled from the applicable funds and are recorded as equity in earnings (losses) in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Our investment in the Rialto funds totaled $132.9 million and $140.1 million as of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively.
As of May 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, we had strategic technology investments in unconsolidated entities of $235.1 million and $239.3 million, respectively, accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Our strategic technology investments through our LEN X business help to enhance the homebuying and homeownership experience, and are an important part of our focus on using technology to reduce costs. Details regarding these investments are included in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Option Contracts
We often obtain access to land through option contracts, which generally enable us to control portions of properties owned by third parties (including land banks) and unconsolidated entities until we have determined whether to exercise the options. Since fiscal year 2020, we have been increasing the percentage of our total homesites that we control through option contracts rather than own.
The table below indicates the number of homesites to which we had access through option contracts with third parties and unconsolidated JVs (i.e., controlled homesites) and homesites owned (excluding homes in inventory):
