Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
On August 3, 2009, Centex Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Corporation”), announced its results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.  A copy of the Corporation’s press release (the “Press Release”) announcing these results is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is hereby incorporated in this Item 2.02 in its entirety by reference.
 
The Press Release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures.  Housing operating earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined by the Corporation as housing revenues less housing cost of sales less selling, general and administrative expenses.  Housing operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined by the Corporation as housing operating earnings divided by total housing revenues.  Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures are included in the attachments to the Press Release.  For additional information concerning the Corporation’s use of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the Corporation’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 23, 2007, which is also available on the Corporation’s web site at www.centex.com.
 
These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures.  There are limitations to these non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and charges being excluded.  The Corporation compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to the GAAP measures.  The non-GAAP financial measures should be read only in conjunction with the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

CENTEX REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
 
DALLAS – Aug. 3, 2009: Centex Corporation (NYSE: CTX) today reported financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2009.
 
Highlights of the quarter ended June 30, 2009 (compared to last year’s first quarter):
 
Earnings from continuing operations of $0.68 per diluted share
    (includes a $3.31 per share tax benefit)
 
Generated positive cash flow from homebuilding operations
 
June 30th cash and cash equivalents balance of $1.90 billion
 
Reduced total SG&A expenses by 47% or $135 million
 

Corporate Results
Fiscal 2010’s first quarter revenues were $574 million, 49% lower than the same quarter last year.  Earnings from continuing operations for the first quarter were $85 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, up from a loss of $169 million, or $1.36 per diluted share, in the previous year’s fiscal first quarter.  Included in the first quarter of fiscal 2010’s results is a $410 million tax benefit resulting from favorable tax developments.

Home Building
Fiscal 2010’s first quarter revenues were $551 million, 47% lower than the same quarter last year as a result of a 42% decrease in closings to 2,297 homes and a 10% decrease in average sales price to $237,085.  Home building reported an operating loss of $240 million for the quarter versus a loss of $131 million in last year’s first quarter.  The operating loss includes $212 million of impairments and write offs compared to impairments and write offs of $80 million in the year ago quarter.
 
Housing operating losses (housing revenues less housing cost of sales and SG&A) were $13 million, narrower than a loss of $44 million in the previous year.  The decrease in loss is primarily a result of a 200 bps reduction in homebuilding SG&A expenses as a percentage of housing revenues.  The housing gross margin of 11.8% remained stable compared to last year’s

 
 

 
 
first quarter but improved 190 basis points sequentially as both home site and brick and mortar costs decreased as a percentage of revenue.
 
Financial Services
Financial Services reported an operating loss of $13 million in the quarter, compared to earnings of $6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.  The decrease in operating earnings in the quarter was primarily attributable to a $14 million increase in anticipated losses for loans originated and sold due to an increase in investor repurchase and indemnification requests.
 
Other
The Company recognized an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $407 million and $14 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.   The tax benefit for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 primarily resulted from changes in the Company’s liability for unrecognized tax benefits (including interest and penalties) and the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
 
In the quarter, the Company settled several disputed tax issues relating to the audit of its federal income tax returns filed for fiscal years 2001 through 2004 and its California income tax returns for fiscal year 2000 through the current tax period.  In addition, the Company received a Revenue Agent’s Report relating to the audit of the Company’s federal income tax returns for fiscal years 2005 and 2006.  As a result of these developments, the Company adjusted its liability for unrecognized tax benefits and its deferred tax asset valuation allowance.  At June 30, 2009, the Company’s deferred tax asset was $38 million, net of the valuation allowance of $1.28 billion.
 
Proposed Merger with Pulte
In the first fiscal quarter, Centex and Pulte entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Centex will merge with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pulte.  Under the terms of the agreement, Centex stockholders will receive 0.975 shares of Pulte common stock for each share of Centex common stock they own.  The transaction is subject to approval by Pulte and Centex shareholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.  Pulte and Centex have scheduled their respective special meetings of shareholders for August 18, 2009 and, if shareholder approvals are obtained and other customary closing conditions are satisfied, they expect to consummate the merger promptly thereafter.  Additional information is provided below.
 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Explanations of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release and the accompanying attachments, and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, are given in the applicable attachments.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, statements about the benefits of the proposed transaction, including future financial and operating results, and the combined company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. These statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities, as well as those of the markets we serve or intend to serve, to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate to matters of a strictly factual or historical nature and generally discuss or relate to forecasts, estimates or other expectations regarding future events. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “may,” “can,” “could,” “might,” “will” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, including statements related to expected operating and performing results, planned transactions, planned objectives of management, future developments or conditions in the industries in which we participate and other trends, developments and uncertainties that may affect our business in the future.
 
Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, among other things: the failure of Centex’s stockholders to approve the merger agreement; the failure of Pulte’s shareholders to approve either the charter amendment or the issuance of shares in the merger; the possibility that the proposed transaction does not close, including due to the failure to satisfy the closing conditions; the possibility that the expected efficiencies and cost savings of the proposed transaction will not be realized, or will not be realized within the expected time period; the risk that the Pulte and Centex businesses will not be integrated successfully; disruption from the proposed transaction making it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships; interest rate changes and the availability of mortgage financing; continued volatility in, and potential further deterioration of, the debt and equity markets; competition within the industries in which Pulte and Centex operate; the availability and cost of land and raw materials used by Pulte and Centex in their homebuilding operations; the availability and cost of insurance covering risks associated with Pulte’s and Centex’s businesses; shortages and the cost of labor; adverse weather conditions which may slowdown the construction of, or damage, new homes built by Pulte or Centex; slow growth initiatives and/or local building moratoria; the ability to utilize net operating losses, built-in losses and other tax credit carryforwards; governmental regulation, including the effects from the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and the interpretation of tax, labor and environmental laws; changes in consumer confidence and preferences; terrorist acts and other acts of war; and other factors of national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic, business and competitive nature. See Pulte’s and Centex’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Annual Reports to Stockholders for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009, respectively, and other public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for a further discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties applicable to our businesses. Neither Pulte nor Centex undertakes any duty to update any forward-looking statement whether as a result of new information, future events or changes in our respective expectations.
