excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.

Frequently asked questions
Single-family Homes
KB Home is an American homebuilding company. It primarily focuses on residential construction for a range of customers, with a primary focus on single-family homes.

A History of Affordable Homes
KB Home originated in Detroit in 1956, founded by Donald Bruce Kaufman and Eli Broad. Their initial project involved building two model homes in Detroit's northeastern suburbs, an area attracting many first-time homebuyers. Their innovative approach streamlined the construction process, notably excluding basements and instead providing a carport. This strategy allowed them to set the home prices at a point where the monthly mortgage payments were lower than the rent for a two-bedroom apartment. This proved to be a successful formula and helped the company expand across the country and into new markets.
