The indentures governing the senior notes impose certain restrictions on the incurrence of additional debt along with other limitations. At December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all of the covenants and requirements under the senior notes.

We retired outstanding debt totaling $355.8 million and $123.3 million during 2024 and 2023, respectively. The retirements in 2024 included open market repurchases of $193.4 million and $106.6 million of our unsecured senior notes scheduled to mature in 2026 and 2027, respectively. Our total repurchases during the twelve months ended 2024, including open market repurchases, were $310.2 million.

Other notes payable

Other notes payable include non-recourse and limited recourse collateralized notes with third parties that totaled $47.2 million and $35.8 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These notes have maturities ranging up to 4 years, are secured by the applicable land positions to which they relate, and generally have no recourse to any other assets. The stated interest rates on these notes range up to 9%. We recorded inventory through seller financing of $70.9 million, $54.9 million, and $46.7 million in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Revolving credit facility

As of December 31, 2025, we maintained a revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") scheduled to mature in June 2027 with a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.3 billion and an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the capacity to $1.8 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. Effective February 4, 2026, we amended and restated our Revolving Credit Facility to (i) extend the maturity to February 4, 2031, (ii) increase total committed capacity to $1.75 billion, and (iii) expand the uncommitted accordion feature to $750.0 million, providing for potential capacity of up to $2.5 billion, subject to customary conditions and additional lender commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit that reduce the available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility, up to the maximum borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be based on either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate or a base rate, plus an applicable margin, as defined therein. The Revolving Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth and a maximum Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio (as each term is defined in the Revolving Credit Facility). As of December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants and requirements. Outstanding amounts and other obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
At December 31, 2025, we had no borrowings outstanding, $357.1 million of letters of credit issued, and $892.9 million of remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding, $321.1 million of letters of credit issued, and $928.9 million of remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Financial Services debt

Pulte Mortgage maintains a master repurchase agreement with third-party lenders entered into in August 2023 (the "Original Repurchase Agreement", and as amended, the "Repurchase Agreement") that matures on August 12, 2026. The maximum aggregate commitment was $625.0 million at December 31, 2025 which continues until maturity. The Repurchase Agreement also contains an accordion feature that could increase the commitment by $50.0 million above its active commitment level. Borrowings under the Repurchase Agreement are secured by residential mortgage loans available-for-sale. The Repurchase Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants applicable to Pulte Mortgage, including quantitative thresholds related to net worth, net income, and liquidity. At December 31, 2025, Pulte Mortgage had $532.3 million outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 5.51%, and $92.7 million of remaining capacity under the Repurchase Agreement. At December 31, 2024, Pulte Mortgage had $526.9 million outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 6.13% and $148.1 million of remaining capacity under the Original Repurchase Agreement, as amended, replaced by the Repurchase Agreement.

About Debt Disclosures

Debt disclosures detail a company's borrowing structure — the types of instruments, interest rates, maturity schedule, and covenant restrictions that define its financial obligations and flexibility. This section is essential for assessing refinancing risk, interest rate exposure, and the margin of safety against financial distress.

Key signals: the maturity schedule reveals concentration risk — large maturities within 1-2 years during tight credit markets can force dilutive refinancing or asset sales. Compare the fair value of debt against carrying amount to gauge whether the market views the company's credit risk differently than the balance sheet suggests. Watch covenant compliance disclosures for tightening cushions, especially leverage and interest coverage ratios. Variable-rate debt exposure quantifies sensitivity to interest rate changes. Secured versus unsecured mix affects recovery rates and future borrowing capacity. Compare net debt-to-EBITDA against industry peers and covenant limits to assess financial health.
