PULTEGROUP INC/MI/ 10-Q

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Quantitative disclosure We are subject to market risk on our debt instruments primarily due to fluctuations in interest rates. We utilize both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. For fixed-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt instrument but not 38 our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable-rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not affect the fair value of the debt instrument but could affect our earnings and cash flows. Except in very limited circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity. As a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value should not have a significant impact on our fixed-rate debt until we are required or elect to refinance or repurchase such debt. The following table sets forth the principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted-average interest rates, and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of September 30, 2023 ($000’s omitted): As of September 30, 2023 for the Years ending December 31, 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 Thereafter Total Fair Value Rate-sensitive liabilities: Fixed rate debt $ 1,643 $ 47,642 $ 1,900 $ 481,595 $ 457,000 $ 1,000,000 $ 1,989,780 $ 1,998,032 Average interest rate 2.00 % 2.99 % 4.00 % 5.49 % 5.00 % 6.71 % 5.93 % Variable rate debt (a) $ 425,456 $ — $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 425,456 $ 425,456 Average interest rate 7.01 % — % — % — % — % — % 7.01 % (a) Includes the Repurchase Agreement and amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility, under which there was no amount outstanding at September 30, 2023 .
