Environmental, social and governance

Our team at KB Home is focused on managing our business to drive long-term value creation. To us, this means producing financial results that increase total stockholder returns, as we pursue creating better homes, better communities and a better future.

Over 15 years ago, we made a customer driven, industry-first commitment to sustainability by building innovative homes for our customers, while being mindful of their environmental impact and maintaining a balance between innovation and affordability.

We chose this path because we believe that what we do matters, to our customers, to our business, to our employees and the environment we all share. And today, we continue on our journey by:

• Building better homes that we believe can help reduce climate change and protect our world;
• Creating better communities that help expand the American dream for all of us; and
• Striving for a better future that creates value for all stakeholders by operating with integrity and purpose.

We are humbled to have been named to Newsweek®’s 2022 list of America’s Most Trusted Companies and recognized on its Most Responsible Companies list, the only national builder to receive this distinction in each of the past two years.

And, we have distinguished ourselves as an employer, too. In 2021, The Wall Street Journal®, in collaboration with the Drucker Institute, named us to their Management Top 250 list of the most effectively managed companies in the country and we have been recognized among the “World’s Most Admired Companies” on Fortune®’s 2022 list. Forbes® also named us as one of America’s Best Midsize Employers for the second consecutive year.

This year, we published our 15th Annual Sustainability Report, the longest-running publication of its kind in the homebuilding industry. We invite you to learn about what matters to us and to join us on our journey.
