This Schedule 13D/A confirms that Michael P. Nieri, Executive Chairman, and his affiliated trusts and individuals, who collectively control approximately 80% of the company's total voting power, formally executed a written consent approving the previously announced merger agreement with Stanley Martin Homes. This action solidifies the path for the acquisition, which was initially announced on March 12, 2026, by demonstrating strong insider support for the transaction. The filing also details internal trustee changes within the Nieri family's trusts and minor updates to individual holdings due to option vesting and forfeiture, which are less material than the merger consent.
