D.R. Horton, Inc.

Good morning, and welcome to the fourth quarter 2021 earnings conference call for D.R. Horton, America's builder, the largest builder in the United States. I will now turn the call over to Jessica Hansen, Vice President of Investor Relations for D.R. Horton.

Thank you, Tom, and good morning. Welcome to our call to discuss our fourth quarter and fiscal 2021 financial results. Before we get started, today's call includes comments that constitute forward-looking statements as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although D.L. Wharton believes any such statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that actual outcomes will not be materially different. All forward-looking statements are based upon information available to D.L. Wharton on the date of this conference call, and D.L. Wharton does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. Additional information about factors that could lead to material changes in performance is contained in D.O. Horton's annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports on Form 10-Q, all of which are or will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This morning's earnings release can be found on our website at investors.dohorton.com, and we plan to file our 10-K towards the end of next week. As referenced in our press release, we realigned the aggregation of our humbling operating segments into six new reportable segments this quarter to better allocate our home building operating segments across our geographic reporting regions. As a result, in addition to our standard updated investor and supplementary data presentations, we will also be posting to our investor relations site three years of quarterly sales, closings, backlog, homes, and lot data that conforms to our new geographic region presentation. All of this can be found at investor.deohorton.com on the presentation section under news and events for your reference. Now, I will turn the call over to David Auld, our president and CEO.

Thank you, Jessica, and good morning. I am pleased to also be joined on this call by Mike Murray, our executive vice president and co-chief operating officer, and Bill Wheat, our executive vice president and chief financial officer. Today, we also have Paul Romanowski with us, who was recently promoted to executive vice president and co-chief operating officer. Paul has been with DR Horton since 1999, serving as our regional Florida, as our Florida South division president for 15 years, and most recently as our Florida region president for seven years. I'd like to take a brief moment to have Paul introduce himself before we get started.
