Co.'s financial services operations provide various insurance products to its homebuyers in the markets where it builds homes and provide title services in certain of those markets. Co.'s financial services operations also provide mortgage banking services, including residential consumer mortgage loan originations, to its homebuyers indirectly through KBHS Home Loans, LLC, a joint venture Co. formed with Stearns Ventures, LLC. The KBH stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the KBH stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2011 for the given stock.
When performing this calculation it is important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annual return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon.
One way to factor dividends into the return is simply to count them as cash — we don't do
that here. Instead, our website aims to empower investors
by performing the KBH annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
