Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Rents and other revenues increased 2.8% year-over-year (YoY) for both the quarter and the six-month period, driven primarily by higher rental rates.
• Profitability: Net income increased 7.5% for the quarter and 11.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the prior year periods. This was driven by revenue growth and higher net gains on property sales.
• Property Sales: The Company sold 608 properties in Q2 2026 (vs. 370 in Q2 2025) and 1,318 properties YTD (vs. 786 YTD 2025). Net gains on sales increased significantly, though partially offset by higher impairment charges ($24.2M in Q2 2026 vs. $5.8M in Q2 2025).
• Development Activity: The Company delivered 542 newly constructed homes to its operating portfolio in Q2 2026 and 999 YTD. Total home deliveries (including joint ventures) reached 651 in Q2 and 1,190 YTD.
• Share Repurchases: The Company repurchased 4.1 million Class A common shares in Q2 2026 for approximately $123.0 million. YTD repurchases totaled $238.2 million.
• Debt: Total debt principal increased slightly to $5.19 billion from $5.16 billion at year-end 2025. The revolving credit facility balance increased to $390.0 million.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Regulatory Risk (ROAD Act): The "21st Century ROAD to Housing Act" was enacted on July 11, 2026, effective January 7, 2027. This federal law restricts the ability of institutional investors to purchase single-family homes, with exemptions for build-to-rent programs and substantial renovations. Management expects this to adversely impact future acquisition capabilities and potentially access to capital markets.
• Capital Allocation: The Company maintains a $1.25 billion revolving credit facility with $856.3 million remaining capacity. A new $1.0 billion At-the-Market (ATM) share offering program was established in June 2026. A new $500 million share repurchase program was authorized in February 2026, with $377.0 million remaining as of June 30, 2026.
• Outlook: Management continues to focus on the AMH Development Program for growth. The Company expects to meet liquidity requirements through operations, debt, and equity issuances. No specific forward-looking financial guidance (e.g., FFO or EPS ranges) was provided in this filing text.
• Subsequent Events: Between July 1 and July 24, 2026, the Company added 137 newly constructed properties ($55.0 million cost) and disposed of 97 properties ($30.2 million proceeds).

Investor Verification Checklist

• ROAD Act Impact: Verify the specific operational impact of the new federal restrictions on future acquisition pipelines and capital market access.
• Impairment Trends: Monitor the increase in impairment charges on properties held for sale ($24.2M in Q2 2026 vs. $5.8M in Q2 2025) and its effect on net gains from sales.
• Development Pipeline: Confirm the pace of home deliveries from the AMH Development Program against the scale-back in capital investment mentioned in the cash flow discussion.
• Debt Maturities: Review the debt maturity schedule, noting $500 million in 2028 and $790 million in 2029, to assess refinancing needs.
• Occupancy & Rent Growth: Track the 2.6% YoY rent growth and 95.6% occupancy rate to ensure stability in the core operating portfolio.
