ECHOLS, EVP and Chief Financial Officer SHEILA E. GALLAGHER, VP - Corporate Communications HTTP://WWW.CENTEX.COM CENTEX HOMES SALES FOR QUARTER INCREASE 36% COMPANY EXPECTS SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS TO RISE 15% OVER A YEAR AGO DALLAS, TEXAS (Sept. 23, 2002): Centex Corporation (NYSE:CTX) reported today that home sales for the first 12 weeks of its 13-week fiscal second quarter ending Sept. 30, 2002 were 36% higher than sales at the same time in the year-ago quarter. The company added that its home building backlog was up approximately 22% over the backlog reported at the same time in the prior fiscal year. Centex noted that the increased home sales have been generated internally by opening more neighborhoods. No new home building acquisitions have been completed during the fiscal year. Centex confirmed that its second quarter earnings this year will be about 15% higher than second quarter earnings a year ago, which is consistent with the consensus estimate of $1.73 for the current quarter. The company said it is making these announcements because Centex's senior management will be meeting with Wall Street investors on Tuesday, Sept. 24. Centex, through its subsidiaries, ranks among the nation's leading home builders, non-bank-affiliated retail mortgage originators and general contractors. Centex also has operations in home services and investment real estate and currently owns approximately 65% of Centex Construction Products, Inc., a publicly traded company. ### Forward-Looking Statements.
