Segment Reporting [Abstract] |  |  |  |
Segment Information | SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has three reportable segments - Builder operations Central, Builder operations Southeast, and Land Development. Builder operations Central represents operations by our builders in Texas, whereas Builder operations Southeast represents operations by our builders in Georgia and Florida. The Land Development segment acquires land for the development of residential lots that are transferred to our controlled builders or sold to third party homebuilders. The operations of the Company’s builders and land development were aggregated in three reportable segments based on similar economic characteristics, including geography, housing products, class of homebuyer, regulatory environments, and methods used to construct and sell homes. Corporate operations are reported as a non-operating segment and include activities which support the Company’s builder operations, land development, title and mortgage operations through the centralization of certain administrative functions, such as finance, treasury, information technology and human resources, as well as development of strategic initiatives. Unallocated corporate expenses are reported in the corporate, other and unallocated segment as these activities do not share a majority of aggregation criteria with either the builder operations or land development segments. While the operations of Challenger meet the criteria for an operating segment, they do not meet the quantitative thresholds of ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”) to be separately reported and disclosed. As such, Challenger’s results are included within the corporate, other and unallocated segment. Green Brick Title, LLC (“Green Brick Title”) and BHome Mortgage operations are not economically similar to either builder operations or land development and do not meet the quantitative thresholds of ASC 280 to be separately reported and disclosed. As such, these entities’ results are included within the corporate, other and unallocated segment. Operations of EJB River Holdings and GBTM Sendera do not meet the criteria for an operating segment, and they do not meet the quantitative thresholds of ASC 280 to be separately reported and disclosed. As such, these results are included within the corporate, other and unallocated segment. Operational results of each reportable segment are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the reportable segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Financial information relating to the Company’s reportable segments is as follows (in thousands):
