2008 Third Quarter Financial and Operating Highlights From Continuing Operations:

• Quarter-end backlog of 1,248* homes, valued at $395.7 million compared to 2,421* homes valued at $966.4 million a year ago.

The net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 was $368.8 million, or $2.53 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $119.7 million, or $1.66 per diluted share, in the year earlier period. Homebuilding revenues from continuing operations for the 2008 third quarter were $400.3 million versus $643.2 million last year. The Company’s results for the 2008 third quarter included pretax impairment charges of $368.4 million. The impairment charges consisted of: $209.2 million related to ongoing consolidated real estate inventories; $58.0 million related to land sold or held for sale; $92.2 million related to the Company’s share of joint venture impairment charges; and $8.9 million related to land deposit and capitalized preacquisition cost write-offs for abandoned projects. In addition, the 2008 third quarter operating results also included a noncash charge related to a net increase in the Company’s deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $134.1 million, or $0.92 per diluted share. Excluding these charges, the Company generated a loss of $9.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share.**

Jeffrey V. Peterson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer stated, “While we continue to endure what appears to be one of the worst economic and housing environments the country has faced in recent memory, we are pleased to have closed the final phase of the MatlinPatterson equity recapitalization through a $153 million rights offering. The additional equity and cash liquidity has helped to fortify our balance sheet for these challenging times which are expected to persist for the foreseeable future. Our substantial cash position will help maintain valuable liquidity in the near term as well as provide strategic capital which can be deployed at the appropriate time to take advantage of what are expected to be attractive land and corporate opportunities.”

Mr. Peterson continued, “ Housing market conditions deteriorated further during the quarter as the growing level of foreclosure inventory combined with the tumultuous global financial markets, worsening economic conditions and record low consumer confidence further undermined the already weak housing market. It does not appear at this time that the earlier efforts by the Federal Government to stabilize the housing market across the country has had any meaningful impact. The further decline in new home demand is evidenced by slower order trends and further price reductions which have continued to trigger additional impairment charges.”

“As we continue to navigate these tough times, we have intensified our efforts towards transformational changes within our organization. We believe we are working towards a more efficient operating structure, a lower manufacturing cost structure, and a more proficient sales and marketing organization, all with the goal of improving our award winning product platform and organization.”

Equity Investment

As reported earlier, the Company completed its rights offering (“Rights Offering”) pursuant to which each holder of our common stock as of the record date of July 28, 2008 was offered a right (“Right”) to purchase up to such holder’s pro rata share of approximately 50 million shares of our common stock at a per share price of $3.05 (equivalent to approximately 0.69 shares of common stock for each Right). The offer expired August 22, 2008 and rights to purchase approximately 27.2 million shares of common stock were exercised for a total subscription price of $82.9 million. As contemplated by the investment agreement with MatlinPatterson, they purchased from us (in the form of preferred stock) the 22.8 million shares of common stock not purchased by our stockholders in the Rights Offering for a total subscription price of $69.6 million. Further details about these transactions can be found in the Company’s Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 4, 2008 and in the Company’s forthcoming Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.

Inventory Reduction

As a result of the continued focus on inventory reduction initiatives, Standard Pacific’s owned or controlled lot position stood at approximately 27,000 lots (including discontinued operations) at September 30, 2008, a 42% reduction from the year ago level and a 64% decrease from the peak lot count at December 31, 2005.

Joint Venture Update

The Company exited two Northern California joint ventures during the 2008 third quarter for aggregate net cash payments totaling approximately $3.3 million. The Company also made a $4.2 million loan remargin payment related to one Southern California joint venture during the 2008 third quarter. The Company continues to evaluate its homebuilding joint ventures and may exit additional joint ventures in the future, which may be accomplished by acquiring its partner’s interest, disposing of its interest or other means.

The Company generated a homebuilding pretax loss from continuing operations for the 2008 third quarter of $388.3 million compared to a pretax loss of $185.0 million in the year earlier period. The increase in pretax loss was primarily the result of a $152.3 million, or 70%, increase in impairment charges, a 38% decrease in homebuilding revenues to $400.3 million, a $53.5 million increase in joint venture loss (to a loss of $91.9 million), and a reduction in its homebuilding gross margin percentage. These changes were partially offset by a $16.7 million decrease in the Company’s absolute level of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. The Company’s homebuilding operations for the 2008 third quarter included the following pretax charges from continuing operations: a $267.2 million inventory impairment charge (including $58.0 million for land sold or held for sale); a $92.2 million charge related to the Company’s share of joint venture impairments; and an $8.9 million charge related to the write-off of land option deposits and capitalized preacquisition costs for abandoned projects. The inventory impairment charges were included in cost of sales, while the land deposit and capitalized preacquisition cost write-offs were included in other income (expense).

Homebuilding Gross Margin Percentage

The Company’s 2008 third quarter homebuilding gross margin percentage from continuing operations (including land sales) was down year-over-year to a negative 51.6% from a negative 7.5% in the prior year period. The 2008 third quarter gross margin reflected a $267.2 million pretax inventory impairment charge related to 75 projects, of which $209.2 million related to current and future projects and $58.0 million related to land or lots that have been or are intended to be sold. These impairments related primarily to projects located in California, Nevada and Florida, and to a lesser degree, in Arizona, Colorado, the Carolinas and Texas. Excluding the housing inventory impairment charges from continuing operations, the Company’s 2008 third quarter gross margin percentage from home sales would have been 14.3% versus 20.3% in 2007.** The 600 basis point decrease in the year-over-year as adjusted gross margin percentage

was driven primarily by lower gross margins in California, Arizona and Florida, and to a lesser extent, Texas, Colorado and the Carolinas. The lower gross margins in these markets were driven by increased incentives and discounts resulting from weaker demand, more limited availability of mortgage credit, and an increased level of existing homes available for sale in the marketplace. These factors have continued to put downward pressure on home prices. Until market conditions stabilize, the Company may continue to incur additional inventory impairment charges.

Income Taxes

As a result of the continued downturn in the housing market and the uncertainty as to its magnitude and length, the Company recorded a noncash valuation allowance of $134.1 million, net of the reversal of a portion of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance discussed below, during the three months ended September 30, 2008 against the Company’s net deferred tax assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” resulting in a total valuation allowance of $529.2 million at September 30, 2008. To the extent that the Company generates eligible taxable income in the future to utilize the tax benefits of the related deferred tax assets, it will be able to reduce its effective tax rate by reducing the valuation allowance.

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recognized an income tax benefit as a result of filing a $20.8 million refund claim related to our 2007 federal income tax return, which resulted in the reversal of a portion of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

As a result of the closing of the first phase of the MatlinPatterson transaction, the Company believes that an ownership change under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“Section 382”) occurred during the 2008 second quarter. Accordingly, the Company may be limited on the use of certain tax attributes that relate to tax periods prior to the ownership change. As such, included in the total deferred tax valuation allowance of $529.2 million is a $39.8 million charge related to the potential Section 382 limitation on the Company’s ability to carry 2008 tax losses back to 2006 for refund purposes. The Company is in the process of evaluating these potential carryback limitations, including potentially soliciting a private ruling from the IRS, and to the extent successful in subsequent quarters may result in the reversal of a portion of the current valuation allowance.

(1) Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA means net income (loss) (plus cash distributions of income from unconsolidated joint ventures) before (a) income taxes, (b) homebuilding interest expense (c) expensing of previously capitalized interest included in cost of sales, (d) impairment charges, (e) homebuilding depreciation and amortization, (f) amortization of stock-based compensation, (g) income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures and (h) income (loss) from financial services subsidiary. Other companies may calculate Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA (or similarly titled measures) differently. We believe Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA information is useful to investors as one measure of the Company’s ability to service debt and obtain financing. However, it should be noted that Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA is not a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measure. Due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, Adjusted Homebuilding EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other operating or liquidity performance measure prescribed by GAAP. For the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, EBITDA from continuing and discontinued operations was calculated as follows:

(2) The pro forma common shares outstanding include the as-converted Series B Preferred Stock and the Warrant (assuming a cashless exercise) at the mandatory exercise prices. In addition, this calculation excludes 7,839,809 shares issued under a share lending agreement related to the Company’s 6% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes issued on September 28, 2007. The Company believes that the pro forma stockholders’ equity per common share information is useful to investors as a measure to determine the book value per common share after giving effect of the issuance of Preferred Shares and Warrant to MatlinPatterson assuming full conversion to common stock. This is a non-GAAP financial measure and due to the significance of items adjusted and excluded from this calculation, such measure should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance measures. The following table reconciles actual common shares outstanding to pro forma common shares outstanding and calculates pro forma stockholders’ equity per share at September 30, 2008:

Actual common shares outstanding		100,526,035
Add: Conversion of Preferred shares to common shares		147,812,786
Add: Common shares issued under cashless exercise of the Warrant		49,546,048
Less: Common shares outstanding under share lending facility		7,839,809
Pro forma common shares outstanding		290,045,060
Stockholders’ equity (actual amounts rounded to nearest thousand)	$	788,126,000
Divided by pro forma common shares outstanding		÷290,045,060
Pro forma stockholders’ equity per common share	$	2.72

(3) Total debt at September 30, 2008 and 2007 includes $65.1 million and $83.2 million, respectively, of indebtedness of the Company’s financial services subsidiary and $3.5 million and $11.4 million, respectively, of indebtedness included in liabilities from inventories not owned. In addition, total debt at September 30, 2007 excludes $59.7 million of indebtedness included in trust deed and other notes payable related to a joint venture that was consolidated as of September 30, 2007. This indebtedness was excluded from the leverage calculation as the joint venture is less than an 80% owned subsidiary of the Company and was therefore excluded from our bank credit facilities and public note covenant calculations.

(4) Adjusted net homebuilding debt excludes indebtedness included in liabilities from inventories not owned, indebtedness of the Company’s financial services subsidiary and additionally reflects the offset of cash and equivalents in excess of $5 million. We believe that the adjusted net homebuilding debt to total book capitalization and adjusted net homebuilding debt to LTM adjusted homebuilding EBITDA ratios are useful to investors as a measure of the Company’s ability to obtain financing. These are non-GAAP ratios and other companies may calculate these ratios differently. For purposes of the ratio of adjusted net homebuilding debt to total book capitalization, total book capitalization is adjusted net homebuilding debt plus stockholders’ equity. Adjusted net homebuilding debt is calculated as follows:

	At September 30,
	2008		2007
	(Dollars in thousands)
Total consolidated debt	$	1,654,318	$	2,120,073

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES***

The table set forth below reconciles the Company’s earnings (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2008 to earnings (loss) excluding the after-tax impairment and deferred tax asset valuation charges:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2008
	Net Income (Loss)			Shares	EPS
	(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Net income (loss)	$	(368,824	)	145,800,364	$	(2.53)
Add: Impairment charges, net of income taxes		225,064		145,800,364		1.54
Add: Deferred tax asset valuation allowance		134,088		145,800,364		0.92
Net income (loss), as adjusted	$	(9,672	)	145,800,364	$	(0.07)

The table set forth below reconciles the Company’s homebuilding gross margin percentage and gross margin percentage from home sales for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, excluding housing inventory impairment charges:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2008			Gross Margin %		2007			Gross Margin %
	(Dollars in thousands)
Homebuilding gross margin	$	(206,572	)	(51.6	%)	$	(48,520	)	(7.5	%)
Less: Land sale revenues		5,398					48,953
Add: Cost of land sales		59,375					102,520
Gross margin from home sales		(152,595	)	(38.6	%)		5,047		0.8	%
Add: Housing inventory impairment charges		209,228					115,848
Gross margin from home sales, as adjusted	$	56,633		14.3	%	$	120,895		20.3	%

*** We believe that the measures described above which exclude the effect of impairment and tax valuation charges are useful to investors as they provide investors with a perspective on the underlying operating performance of the business by isolating the impact of charges related to inventory impairments, land deposit and capitalized preacquisition cost writeoffs for abandoned projects and the tax valuation allowance. However, it should be noted that such measures are not GAAP financial measures. Due to the significance of the GAAP components excluded, such measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to operating performance measures prescribed by GAAP.
