NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

December 31, 2010

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements include the accounts of D.R. Horton, Inc. and all of its wholly-owned, majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries (which are referred to as the Company, unless the context otherwise requires). All significant intercompany accounts, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals and the asset impairment charges, loss reserves and deferred tax asset valuation allowance discussed below) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Business

     The Company is a national homebuilder that is engaged in the construction and sale of single-family housing in 72 markets and 26 states in the United States as of December 31, 2010. The Company designs, builds and sells single-family detached homes on lots it develops and on finished lots purchased ready for home construction. To a lesser extent, the Company also builds and sells attached homes, such as town homes, duplexes, triplexes and condominiums (including some mid-rise buildings), which share common walls and roofs. Periodically, the Company sells land and lots. The Company also provides title agency and mortgage financing services, primarily to its homebuyers. The Company generally does not retain or service the mortgages that it originates; rather, it seeks to sell the mortgages and related servicing rights to third-party purchasers.

Seasonality

     Historically, the homebuilding industry has experienced seasonal fluctuations; therefore, the operating results for the three-month period ended December 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011 or subsequent periods.

NOTE B – COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

     The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) reported in the consolidated statements of operations to comprehensive income (loss) for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

NOTE C – MARKETABLE SECURITIES

     The Company invests a portion of its cash on hand by purchasing marketable securities with maturities in excess of three months. These securities are held in the custody of a single financial institution. The Company considers its investment portfolio to be available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value. At the end of a reporting period, unrealized gains and losses on these investments, net of tax, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company’s marketable securities at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010 consisted of the following:

	December 31, 2010
			Gross		Gross

     Of the $296.6 million in marketable securities at December 31, 2010, $179.9 million mature in the next twelve months and $116.7 million mature in one to two years. Gains and losses realized upon the sale of marketable securities are determined by specific identification and are included in homebuilding other income. The Company’s realized gains related to such sales during the three months ended December 31, 2010 were $0.1 million.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)
December 31, 2010

NOTE D – INVENTORY IMPAIRMENTS AND LAND OPTION COST WRITE-OFFS

     At December 31, 2010, when the Company performed its quarterly inventory impairment analysis, the assumptions utilized reflected the Company’s expectation of continued challenging conditions and uncertainties in the homebuilding industry and in its markets. The impairment evaluation at December 31, 2010 indicated communities with a combined carrying value of $434.3 million had indicators of potential impairment, and these communities were evaluated for impairment. The analysis of the large majority of these communities assumed that sales prices in future periods will be equal to or lower than current sales order prices in each community, or in comparable communities, in order to generate an acceptable absorption rate. For a minority of communities that the Company does not intend to develop or operate in current market conditions, slight increases over current sales prices were assumed. While it is difficult to determine a timeframe for a given community in the current market conditions, the remaining lives of these communities were estimated to be in a range from six months to in excess of ten years. In performing this analysis, the Company utilized a range of discount rates for communities of 14% to 20%. Through this evaluation process, it was determined that communities with a carrying value of $26.2 million as of December 31, 2010 were impaired. As a result, during the three months ended December 31, 2010, impairment charges of $6.4 million were recorded to reduce the carrying value of the impaired communities to their estimated fair value, as compared to $1.7 million of impairment charges in the same period of 2009. In the three months ended December 31, 2010, approximately 77% of the impairment charges were recorded to residential land and lots and land held for development, and approximately 23% of the charges were recorded to construction in progress and finished homes inventory, compared to 63% and 37%, respectively, in the same period of 2009.

     The Company’s estimate of undiscounted cash flows from communities analyzed may change and could result in a future need to record impairment charges to adjust the carrying value of these assets to their estimated fair value. There are several factors which could lead to changes in the estimates of undiscounted future cash flows for a given community. The most significant of these include pricing and incentive levels actually realized by the community, the rate at which the homes are sold and the costs incurred to develop the lots and construct the homes. The pricing and incentive levels are often inter-related with sales pace within a community, such that a price reduction can typically be expected to increase the sales pace. Further, both of these factors are heavily influenced by the competitive pressures facing a given community from both new homes and existing homes, some of which may result from foreclosures. If conditions in the broader economy, homebuilding industry or specific markets in which the Company operates worsen, and as the Company re-evaluates specific community pricing and incentives, construction and development plans, and its overall land sale strategies, it may be required to evaluate additional communities or re-evaluate previously impaired communities for potential impairment. These evaluations may result in additional impairment charges.

     At December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, the Company had $2.6 million and $3.3 million, respectively, of land held for sale, consisting of land held for development and land under development that met the criteria of land held for sale.

     During the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company wrote off $2.0 million and recovered $0.5 million, respectively, of earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to land option contracts which are not expected to be acquired.

NOTE E – LAND INVENTORY NOT OWNED

     The Company enters into land and lot option purchase contracts to procure land or lots for the construction of homes. Under these contracts, the Company will fund a stated deposit in consideration for the right, but not the obligation, to purchase land or lots at a future point in time with predetermined terms. Under the terms of the option purchase contracts, many of the option deposits are not refundable at the Company’s discretion.

D.R. HORTON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)
December 31, 2010

     Certain option purchase contracts result in the creation of a variable interest in the entity holding the land parcel under option. In June 2009, the FASB revised its guidance regarding the determination of a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. Under the previous guidance the determination of which entity is the primary beneficiary was based on a quantitative analysis of the variability of the expected gains and losses of the entity. The revised guidance for determining which entity is the primary beneficiary is based on the ability of an entity to control both (1) the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity. The revised guidance also increased the required disclosures about a reporting entity’s involvement with variable interest entities. The Company adopted this guidance as of October 1, 2010. Since the Company determined it did not control the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, all of the variable interest entities that were previously reported as land inventory not owned in its consolidated balance sheets were deconsolidated.

NOTE F – NOTES PAYABLE

5.625% senior notes due 2016		9.0
6.5% senior notes due 2016		15.5
	$	62.5

     These senior notes were repurchased for an aggregate purchase price of $63.8 million, plus accrued interest. The transactions resulted in a net loss on early retirement of debt of $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010, which included the write off of unamortized discounts and fees.

     The indentures governing the Company’s senior notes impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At December 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all of the limitations and restrictions that form a part of the public debt obligations.

Financial Services:

     The Company’s mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, entered into a mortgage sale and repurchase agreement (the “mortgage repurchase facility”) on March 28, 2008. The mortgage repurchase facility, which is accounted for as a secured financing, provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties against the transfer of funds by the counterparties, thereby becoming purchased loans. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 120 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. The capacity of the facility is $100 million, with a provision allowing an increase in the capacity to $125 million during the last five business days of any fiscal quarter and the first seven business days of the following fiscal quarter. The maturity date of the facility is March 4, 2011.

     As of December 31, 2010, $167.8 million of mortgage loans held for sale were pledged under the repurchase agreement. These mortgage loans had a collateral value of $157.0 million. DHI Mortgage has the option to fund a portion of its repurchase obligations in advance. As a result of advance paydowns totaling $135.3 million, DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $21.7 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at December 31, 2010 at a 3.8% annual interest rate.

     The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by either D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and its minimum required liquidity. At December 31, 2010, the mortgage subsidiary was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility.

NOTE G – HOMEBUILDING INTEREST

     The Company capitalizes homebuilding interest costs to inventory during active development and construction. Capitalized interest is charged to cost of sales as the related inventory is delivered to the buyer. Additionally, the Company writes off a portion of the capitalized interest related to communities for which inventory impairments are recorded. The Company’s inventory under active development and construction was lower than its debt level at December 31, 2010 and 2009; therefore, a portion of the interest incurred is reflected as interest expense.

     The following table summarizes the Company’s homebuilding interest costs incurred, capitalized, expensed as interest expense, charged to cost of sales and written off during the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

Capitalized interest, end of period	$	89.4		$	119.9

NOTE H – MORTGAGE LOANS

     To manage the interest rate risk inherent in its mortgage operations, the Company hedges its risk using various derivative instruments, which include forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), Eurodollar Futures Contracts (EDFC) and put options on both MBS and EDFC. Use of the term “hedging instruments” in the following discussion refers to these securities collectively, or in any combination. The Company does not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

     Mortgage loans held for sale consist primarily of single-family residential loans collateralized by the underlying property. Newly originated loans that have been closed but not committed to third-party purchasers are hedged to mitigate the risk of changes in their fair value. Hedged loans are committed to third-party purchasers typically within three days after origination. Approximately 83% of the mortgage loans sold by DHI Mortgage during the three months ended December 31, 2010 were sold to two major financial institutions pursuant to their loan purchase agreements. At December 31, 2010, mortgage loans held for sale had an aggregate fair value of $188.5 million and an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $184.4 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had net gains on sales of loans of $10.9 million and $11.8 million, respectively, which includes the effect of recording recourse expense of $1.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively, as discussed in the “Other Mortgage Loans and Loss Reserves” section below.

     The notional amounts of the hedging instruments used to hedge mortgage loans held for sale vary in relationship to the underlying loan amounts, depending on the movements in the value of each hedging instrument relative to the value of the underlying mortgage loans. The fair value change related to the hedging instruments generally offsets the fair value change in the mortgage loans held for sale, which for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was not significant, and is recognized in current earnings. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had $33.7 million in mortgage loans held for sale not committed to third-party purchasers and the notional amounts of the hedging instruments related to those loans totaled $34.0 million.

Other Mortgage Loans and Loss Reserves

     Generally, mortgage loans are sold with limited recourse provisions which include industry-standard representations and warranties, primarily involving the absence of misrepresentations by the borrower or other parties and, depending on the agreement, may include requiring a minimum number of payments to be made by the borrower. The Company generally does not retain any other continuing interest related to mortgage loans sold in the secondary market. Other mortgage loans generally consist of loans repurchased due to these limited recourse obligations. Typically, these loans are impaired and often become real estate owned through the foreclosure process. At December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, the Company’s total other mortgage loans and real estate owned, before loss reserves were as follows:

	December 31,		September 30,
	2010		2010
	(In millions)
Other mortgage loans	$	42.8	$	43.0
Real estate owned		4.5		4.9

     Based on historical performance and current housing and credit market conditions, the Company has recorded reserves for estimated losses on other mortgage loans, real estate owned and future loan repurchase obligations due to the limited recourse provisions, all of which are recorded as reductions of financial services revenue. These reserves totaled $36.2 million and $39.0 million at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively, allocated as follows:

	December 31,		September 30,
	2010		2010
	(In millions)
Loss reserves related to:
Other mortgage loans	$	8.6	$	9.0
Real estate owned		1.7		1.8
Loan repurchase obligations – known and expected		25.9		28.2
	$	36.2	$	39.0

     Other mortgage loans and real estate owned and the related loss reserves are included in financial services other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

     A subsidiary of the Company reinsured a portion of the private mortgage insurance written on loans originated by DHI Mortgage in prior years. At December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, reserves for expected future losses under the reinsurance program totaled $5.6 million and $9.7 million, respectively. The loan repurchase obligations and reinsurance loss reserves are included in financial services accounts payable and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. It is possible that future losses may exceed the amount of reserves and, if so, additional charges will be required.

Loan Commitments and Related Derivatives

     The Company is party to interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) which are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. The expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of a loan are included in the measurement of all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through earnings at the time of commitment. At December 31, 2010, IRLCs, which are accounted for as derivative instruments recorded at fair value, totaled $131.1 million.

     The Company manages interest rate risk related to its IRLCs through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments and hedging instruments. These instruments are considered derivatives in an economic hedge and are accounted for at fair value with gains and losses recognized in current earnings. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had approximately $20.8 million of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments and $101.3 million of hedging instruments related to IRLCs not yet committed to purchasers.

NOTE I – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

     Fair value measurements are used for the Company’s marketable securities, mortgage loans held for sale, IRLCs and other derivative instruments on a recurring basis, and are used for inventories, other mortgage loans and real estate owned on a nonrecurring basis, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

     The FASB’s authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level hierarchy based upon the inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. When measuring fair value, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs (those which can be easily seen by market participants), and minimize the use of unobservable inputs (those which are generally developed internally, utilizing management’s estimates and assumptions). The fair value hierarchy and its application to the Company’s assets and liabilities, is as follows:

• Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The Company’s U.S. Treasury securities are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs.

• Level 2 – Valuation is determined from quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market. The Company’s assets/liabilities measured at fair value using Level 2 inputs are as follows:

§ government agency securities, corporate debt securities, foreign government securities and certificates of deposit;

§ mortgage loans held for sale;

§ over-the-counter derivatives such as forward sales of MBS, put options on MBS and best-efforts commitments; and

§ IRLCs.

• Level 3 – Valuation is derived from model-based techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable and based on the Company’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use to value the asset or liability. The Company’s assets measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs, all of which are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value on a nonrecurring basis, are as follows:

§ inventory held and used;

§ other mortgage loans; and

§ real estate owned.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)
December 31, 2010

     The fair values of cash and cash equivalents approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature. The Company determines the fair values of its senior and convertible senior notes based on quoted market prices. The aggregate fair value of these notes at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010 was $2,207.4 million and $2,244.0 million, respectively, compared to an aggregate carrying value of $1,994.3 million and $2,050.1 million, respectively. The aggregate fair value of the Company’s senior notes includes fair values for the 2% convertible senior notes of $568.4 million and $553.8 million at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to their carrying values of $398.2 million and $391.9 million, respectively. The carrying value of the equity component of the 2% convertible senior notes was $136.7 million at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010. For other secured notes and balances due under the mortgage repurchase facility, the fair values approximate their carrying amounts due to their short maturity or floating interest rate terms, as applicable.

NOTE J – INCOME TAXES

     The Company’s provision for income taxes attributable to continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $0.5 million compared to a benefit from income taxes of $149.2 million in the comparable period of the prior year that resulted from net operating loss (NOL) carrybacks. The Company does not have meaningful effective tax rates for these periods because its net deferred tax assets are offset fully by a valuation allowance.

     The Company had income taxes receivable of $14.3 million and $16.0 million at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively. The income taxes receivable at December 31, 2010 relates to federal and state income tax refunds the Company expects to receive.

     At December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, the Company’s net deferred tax assets, which are fully offset by a valuation allowance, were $905.6 million and $902.6 million, respectively. The realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets ultimately depends upon the existence of sufficient taxable income in future periods. The Company continues to analyze the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to its deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance could be reduced in future periods if there is sufficient evidence indicating it is more likely than not that a portion or all of the Company’s deferred tax assets will be realized. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on the Company’s deferred tax assets and consolidated results of operations or financial position.

     The Company classifies interest and penalties on income taxes as income tax expense. At December 31, 2010, the amount of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits was $66.5 million, with a related accrual for interest of $16.4 million. It is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits and corresponding interest may decrease as much as $59.2 million in the aggregate as a result of a ruling request filed by the Company with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concerning capitalization of inventory costs. If the IRS rules favorably on the ruling request, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits and related interest would be reduced, resulting in a benefit from income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations.

     The Company is subject to federal income tax and to income tax in multiple states. The statute of limitations for the Company’s major tax jurisdictions remains open for examination for fiscal years 2004 through 2010. The Company is currently being audited by various states and its federal NOL refunds from fiscal 2008 and 2009 are subject to Congressional Joint Committee review.

NOTE K – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

     The following table sets forth the numerators and denominators used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. For the three months ended December 31, 2010, all outstanding stock options and the convertible senior notes were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were antidilutive due to the net loss recorded during the period. For the three months ended December 31, 2009, options to purchase 9.1 million shares of common stock

NOTE L – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

     The Company has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the SEC in September 2009, registering debt and equity securities that it may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined.

     In July 2010, the Board of Directors renewed the authorization to repurchase up to $100 million of the Company’s common stock. The authorization is effective through July 31, 2011. All of the $100 million authorization was remaining at December 31, 2010.

     During the three months ended December 31, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per common share, which was paid on December 8, 2010 to stockholders of record on November 24, 2010. In January 2011, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per common share, payable on February 18, 2011 to stockholders of record on February 10, 2011. Quarterly cash dividends of $0.0375 per common share were declared in the comparable quarters of fiscal 2010.

NOTE M – EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Performance Unit Award

     In November, 2010, under the form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved and granted awards of 300,000 performance based units (Performance Units) that will vest at the end of a three-year performance period ending September 30, 2013. The number of units that ultimately vest depends on the Company’s relative position as compared to its peers at the end of the three-year period in achieving certain performance criteria and can range from 0% to 200% of the number of units granted. The performance criteria are total shareholder return, return on investment, SG&A expense containment and gross profit. The earned awards will have a value equal to the number of earned units multiplied by the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the end of the performance period and may be paid in cash, equity or a combination of both. The Compensation Committee has the discretion to reduce the final payout on the Performance Units from the amount earned. The liability for these awards of $0.2 million at December 31, 2010 was based on the Company’s

performance against the peer group, the elapsed portion of the performance period and the Company’s stock price at the end of the period. The Performance Units have no dividend or voting rights during the performance period. The fair value of these awards on the date of grant was $12.69 per unit.

NOTE N – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Warranty Claims

     The Company typically provides its homebuyers with a ten-year limited warranty for major defects in structural elements such as framing components and foundation systems, a two-year limited warranty on major mechanical systems, and a one-year limited warranty on other construction components. The Company’s warranty liability is based upon historical warranty cost experience in each market in which it operates, and is adjusted as appropriate to reflect qualitative risks associated with the types of homes built and the geographic areas in which they are built.

     At December 31, 2010, the Company had liabilities of $2.0 million for the remaining repair costs of homes in its Florida and Louisiana markets constructed during 2005 through 2007 which contain or are suspected to contain allegedly defective drywall manufactured in China (Chinese Drywall) that may be responsible for accelerated corrosion of certain metals in the home. The Company first learned of this potential issue during fiscal 2009 through customer inquiries. The Company has identified approximately 90 homes which contain or are suspected to contain Chinese Drywall through a review of the supply channel for its homes constructed in these markets and of the warranty claims received in these markets as well as testing of specific homes. Through December 31, 2010, the Company has spent approximately $5.5 million to remediate these homes. While the Company will seek reimbursement for these remediation costs from various sources, it has not recorded a receivable for potential recoveries as of December 31, 2010. The Company is continuing its investigation to determine if there are additional homes containing Chinese Drywall in these markets, which if found, would likely require the Company to further increase its warranty reserve for this matter in the future. The remaining costs accrued to complete this remediation are based on the Company’s estimate of remaining repair costs. If the actual costs to remediate the homes differ from the estimated costs, the Company may revise its warranty estimate. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has been named as a defendant in several lawsuits in Louisiana and Florida pertaining to Chinese Drywall. As these actions are still in their early stages, the Company is unable to express an opinion as to the amount of damages, if any, beyond what has been reserved for repair as discussed above.

     Changes in the Company’s warranty liability during the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	December 31,
	2010			2009
	(In millions)
Warranty liability, beginning of period	$	46.2		$	59.6
Warranties issued		3.3			5.1
Changes in liability for pre-existing warranties		(1.8	)		(4.4	)
Settlements made		(6.5	)		(5.9	)
Warranty liability, end of period	$	41.2		$	54.4

Insurance and Legal Claims

     The Company has been named as a defendant in various claims, complaints and other legal actions including construction defect claims on closed homes and other claims and lawsuits incurred in the ordinary course of business, including employment matters, personal injury claims, land development issues, contract disputes and claims related to its mortgage activities. The Company has established reserves for these contingencies, based on the expected costs of the claims. The Company’s estimates of such reserves are based on the facts and circumstances of individual pending claims and historical data and trends, including costs relative to revenues, home closings and product types, and include estimates of the costs of construction defect claims incurred but not yet reported. These

-17-

D.R. HORTON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)
December 31, 2010

reserve estimates are subject to ongoing revision as the circumstances of individual pending claims and historical data and trends change. Adjustments to estimated reserves are recorded in the accounting period in which the change in estimate occurs. The Company’s liabilities for these items were $561.8 million and $571.3 million at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively, and are included in homebuilding accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Related to the contingencies for construction defect claims and estimates of construction defect claims incurred but not yet reported, and other legal claims and lawsuits incurred in the ordinary course of business, the Company estimates and records insurance receivables for these matters under applicable insurance policies when recovery is probable. Additionally, the Company may have the ability to recover a portion of its legal expenses from its subcontractors when the Company has been named as an additional insured on their insurance policies. Estimates of the Company’s insurance receivables related to these matters totaled $246.5 million and $251.5 million at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively, and are included in homebuilding other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Expenses related to these items were approximately $8.5 million and $9.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

     Management believes that, while the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, the liabilities arising from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. To the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds management’s estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to these matters, the Company would incur additional charges that could be significant.

Land and Lot Option Purchase Contracts

     The Company enters into land and lot option purchase contracts in order to procure land or lots for the construction of homes. At December 31, 2010, the Company had total deposits of $12.4 million, consisting of cash deposits of $10.6 million, promissory notes of $1.7 million, and letters of credit and surety bonds of $0.1 million, to purchase land and lots with a total remaining purchase price of $994.7 million. Within the land and lot option purchase contracts at December 31, 2010, there were a limited number of contracts, representing $6.8 million of remaining purchase price, subject to specific performance clauses which may require the Company to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their obligations. The majority of land and lots under contract are currently expected to be purchased within three years, based on the Company’s assumptions as to the extent it will exercise its options to purchase such land and lots.

Other Commitments

     The Company provides standby letters of credit and surety bonds, issued by third parties, to secure performance under various contracts. At December 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $44.2 million and surety bonds of $818.7 million. The Company has secured letter of credit agreements with five banks that require it to deposit cash, in an amount approximating the balance of letters of credit outstanding, as collateral with the issuing banks. At December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, the amount of cash restricted for this purpose totaled $45.1 million and $52.6 million, respectively, and is included in homebuilding restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE P – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements,” which requires additional disclosures about transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy and disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance was effective for the Company in the current quarter, except for the Level 3 activity disclosures, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this guidance, which is related to disclosure only, did not and will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE Q – SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The Company’s 33 homebuilding operating divisions and its financial services operation are its operating segments. The homebuilding operating segments are aggregated into six reporting segments and the financial services operating segment is its own reporting segment. The Company’s reportable homebuilding segments are: East, Midwest, Southeast, South Central, Southwest and West. These reporting segments have homebuilding operations located in the following states:

East:	Delaware, Georgia (Savannah only), Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Virginia
Midwest:	Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin
Southeast:	Alabama, Florida and Georgia
South Central:	Louisiana, New Mexico (Las Cruces only), Oklahoma and Texas
Southwest:	Arizona and New Mexico
West:	California, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Washington

     During the three months ended September 30, 2010, a change in the composition of the Company’s operating divisions required that the Las Cruces, New Mexico market, previously included in the Southwest reporting segment, now be included in the South Central reporting segment. Consequently, the Company has restated the prior year segment information provided in this note to conform to the current year presentation.

     Homebuilding is the Company’s core business, generating 97% and 98% of consolidated revenues during the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company’s homebuilding segments are primarily engaged in the acquisition and development of land and the construction and sale of residential homes on the land, in 26 states and 72 markets in the United States. The homebuilding segments generate most of their revenues from the sale of completed homes, and to a lesser extent from the sale of land and lots.

     The Company’s financial services segment provides mortgage financing and title agency services primarily to customers of the Company’s homebuilding segments. The Company generally does not retain or service the mortgages that it originates; rather, it seeks to sell the mortgages and related servicing rights to third-party purchasers. The financial services segment generates its revenues from originating and selling mortgages and collecting fees for title insurance agency and closing services.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this quarterly report and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis constitutes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those described in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section following this discussion.

BUSINESS

     We are one of the largest homebuilding companies in the United States, constructing and selling single-family housing through our operating divisions in 26 states and 72 markets as of December 31, 2010, primarily under the name of D.R. Horton, America’s Builder. Our homebuilding operations primarily include the construction and sale of single-family homes with sales prices generally ranging from $90,000 to $700,000, with an average closing price of $209,300 during the three months ended December 31, 2010. Approximately 88% and 83% of home sales revenues were generated from the sale of single-family detached homes in the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The remainder of home sales revenues were generated from the sale of attached homes, such as town homes, duplexes, triplexes and condominiums (including some mid-rise buildings), which share common walls and roofs.

     Through our financial services operations, we provide mortgage financing and title agency services to homebuyers in many of our homebuilding markets. DHI Mortgage, our wholly-owned subsidiary, provides mortgage financing services primarily to the purchasers of homes we build. We generally do not retain or service the mortgages we originate; rather, we seek to sell the mortgages and related servicing rights to third-party purchasers. DHI Mortgage originates loans in accordance with purchaser guidelines and historically has sold substantially all of its mortgage production within 30 days of origination. Our subsidiary title companies serve as title insurance agents by providing title insurance policies, examination and closing services, primarily to the purchasers of our homes.

     We conduct our homebuilding operations in the geographic regions, states and markets listed below, and we conduct our mortgage and title operations in many of these markets. Our homebuilding operating divisions are aggregated into six reporting segments, also referred to as reporting regions, which comprise the markets below. Our financial statements contain additional information regarding segment performance.

OVERVIEW

     In the first quarter of fiscal 2011 conditions within the homebuilding industry remained challenging, primarily due to weak overall economic conditions, high unemployment and low consumer confidence. Demand for new homes improved during the first half of fiscal 2010 while the federal homebuyer tax credit was in effect, but decreased sharply once the tax credit expired and has since remained at a low level. As a result, our net sales orders in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were 17% lower than in the comparable prior year period. These results suggest that efforts to improve our net sales order volume will be challenging and that overall demand for new homes is likely to remain at very low levels for some time.

     During the ongoing slowdown in the homebuilding industry that began in 2006, numerous factors have hurt demand for new homes on a pervasive and persistent basis across the United States. These factors include high inventory levels of available homes, elevated sales order cancellation rates, low sales absorption rates and overall weak consumer confidence. The effects of these factors have been magnified by reduced availability of credit in the mortgage markets and high levels of home foreclosures. High levels of foreclosures not only contribute to additional inventory available for sale, but also reduce appraisal valuations for new homes, potentially resulting in lower sales prices. The overall economy remains weak, with a high level of unemployment, substantially reduced consumer spending and low levels of consumer confidence. The turmoil in the housing market has resulted in substantial price reductions in our homes during the course of the slowdown.

     The significant decline in demand for our homes after the expiration of the federal homebuyer tax credit and the continued low level of demand indicate that market conditions in the homebuilding industry remain weak, and the timing of a sustainable housing recovery is uncertain. We are maintaining our cautious outlook for the homebuilding industry, and will adjust our operating strategy as necessary as we continually assess the level of underlying demand for new homes in our communities. We expect that our level of home sales, closings and profitability will be lower in fiscal 2011 than in fiscal 2010.

     Our future results could be negatively impacted by prolonged weakness in the economy, continued high levels of unemployment, a significant increase in mortgage interest rates or further tightening of mortgage lending standards.

     Due to these uncertain market conditions, we have continued to evaluate our homebuilding and financial services assets for recoverability. Our assets whose recoverability is most impacted by market conditions include inventory, earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to land and lot option contracts, tax assets and owned mortgage loans. These assets collectively represented approximately 89% of our total assets, excluding cash and marketable securities, at December 31, 2010. Our evaluations reflected our expectation of continued challenges in the homebuilding industry. Based on our evaluations, during the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we recorded inventory impairment charges of $6.4 million, wrote-off earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to land and lot option contracts we no longer plan to pursue of $2.0 million, recorded additional reserves for losses of $1.8 million associated with mortgage loans held in portfolio and the limited recourse provisions on previously sold mortgage loans and increased the reserve related to mortgage reinsurance activities by $0.6 million. We will evaluate whether further impairment charges, valuation adjustments or write-offs are necessary on these assets in the coming quarters. Additional discussion of these evaluations and charges is included herein.

STRATEGY

     We believe the long-term fundamental factors which support housing demand, namely population growth and household formation, remain positive. In the near term, however, it is not possible to predict if current homebuilding industry conditions will improve or if they will deteriorate from current levels. During the downturn we have increased our cash balances by generating cash flow from operations, primarily through reductions in inventory and mortgage loans held for sale, the receipt of tax refunds and by accessing the capital markets. While we will continue to conservatively manage our business, our increased liquidity provides us with flexibility in determining the appropriate operating strategy for each of our communities and markets to strike the best balance between cash flow generation and potential profit. With this flexibility, we are committed to continuing the following initiatives related to our operating strategy in the current homebuilding business environment:

• Maintaining a strong cash balance and overall liquidity position.

• Managing the sales prices and level of sales incentives on our homes as necessary to optimize the balance of sales volumes, profits, returns on inventory investments and cash flows.

• Entering into new lot option contracts to purchase finished lots to potentially increase sales volumes and profitability.

• Renegotiating existing lot option contracts to reduce our lot costs and better match the scheduled lot purchases with new home demand in each community.

• Limiting land development spending, especially in communities that require substantial investments of time or capital resources.

• Managing our inventory of homes under construction by selectively starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand, while monitoring the number and aging of unsold homes and aggressively marketing unsold, completed homes in inventory.

• Decreasing the cost of goods purchased from both vendors and subcontractors.

• Modifying product offerings to provide more affordable homes.

• Controlling our SG&A infrastructure to match production levels.

     These initiatives allowed us to generate significant cash flows from operations during the downturn. Although we cannot provide any assurances that these initiatives will be successful in the future, we expect that our operating strategy will allow us to continue to maintain a strong balance sheet and liquidity position in fiscal 2011.

Net Sales Orders

     The value and number of net sales orders decreased 17%, to $705.6 million (3,363 homes) for the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $850.1 million (4,037 homes) for the same period of 2009. Net sales orders in the prior year quarter benefitted from the federal homebuyer tax credit, while the current quarter did not have a similar benefit. Since the expiration of the federal homebuyer tax credit, demand for new homes has declined significantly. This decline in demand indicates that market conditions remain weak and the timing of a sustainable housing recovery is uncertain. Historically, especially prior to the onset of the current downturn in the housing market, our first fiscal quarter was our weakest quarter in terms of sales orders, and we would experience sequential improvement in sales orders in the second and third quarters during the spring season and into early summer. We expect to experience a sequential increase in our sales in the spring and summer quarters, but our outlook remains cautious given the uncertainty in the market.

     In comparing the three-month period ended December 31, 2010 to the same period of 2009, the largest percentage decreases in net sales orders occurred in our Southwest, South Central and Midwest regions due to weaker demand in our Phoenix, Dallas/Fort Worth and Chicago markets. Higher cancellation rates, which were experienced in most regions, also contributed to the decline in net sales orders. The volume of net sales orders in our East and Southeast regions were comparable to the prior year period as a result of new communities in the Carolinas and Florida. Our sales volumes in the future will depend on the strength of the overall economy, employment levels and our ability to successfully implement our operating strategies in each of our markets.

-34-

     In comparing the three-month period ended December 31, 2010 to the same period of 2009, the value of net sales orders decreased in all of our market regions. In most regions, the decreases were due to a decrease in the number of homes sold, while in our East region, the decrease was due to a decrease in the average selling price of those homes, reflecting both weakening market conditions and product positioning to target first-time homebuyers.

     The average price of our net sales orders in the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $209,800, consistent with the $210,600 average in the comparable period of 2009. We will continue our efforts to offer affordable product offerings to our target customer base and will seek to adjust our product mix, geographic mix and pricing within our homebuilding markets to meet market conditions.

     Our sales order cancellation rate (cancelled sales orders divided by gross sales orders for the period) during the three months ended December 31, 2010 was 28%, compared to 26% during the same period of 2009. This cancellation rate continues to be above historical levels. Our ability to reduce the cancellation rate to historical levels depends largely on the strength of the overall economy and our ability to successfully implement our operating strategies in each of our markets. We anticipate that cancellation rates will continue to fluctuate significantly until there is sustained stability in market conditions.

Sales Order Backlog

     Sales order backlog represents homes under contract but not yet closed at the end of the period. Many of the contracts in our sales order backlog are subject to contingencies, including mortgage loan approval and buyers selling their existing homes, which can result in cancellations. A portion of the contracts in backlog will not result in closings due to cancellations, which have been substantial during the recent housing downturn.

     Our homes in backlog at December 31, 2010 declined 7% from the prior year as a result of closing homes at a greater rate than our sales pace during recent quarters. Given this lower level of backlog, if the slower sales pace we have recently experienced continues throughout fiscal 2011, our full year closings and revenues will be lower in 2011 than 2010.

Home Sales Revenue

     Revenues from home sales decreased 31%, to $761.1 million (3,637 homes closed) for the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $1,108.2 million (5,529 homes closed) for the comparable period of 2009. The average selling price of homes closed during the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $209,300, up 4% from the $200,400 average for the same period of 2009. During the three months ended December 31, 2010, home sales revenues decreased significantly in all of our market regions, resulting from decreases in the number of homes closed.

     The number of homes closed in the three months ended December 31, 2010 decreased 34% due to significant decreases in all six of our market regions. Although the federal homebuyer tax credit helped stimulate demand for new homes during the prior year period, following its expiration, we have experienced a significant decline in demand for our homes as reflected in our current quarter results. Considering the decline in net sales orders during recent quarters, we expect to close fewer homes in fiscal 2011 than we closed in fiscal 2010. As conditions change in the housing markets in which we operate, our ongoing level of net sales orders will determine the number of home closings and amount of revenue we will generate.

Home Sales Gross Profit

     Gross profit from home sales decreased by 37%, to $118.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $189.4 million for the comparable period of 2009. As a percentage of home sales revenues, gross profit from home sales decreased 150 basis points, to 15.6%. The reduction in gross profit from home sales was primarily due to the increased levels of incentives and discounts needed to sell homes in this difficult market environment, which narrowed the range between our selling prices and costs of our homes in most of our markets, causing approximately 140 basis points of the decline in home sales gross profit. Also, approximately 20 basis points of the decrease was caused by the change in estimated costs of warranty and construction defect claims as a percentage of home sales revenue, which was partially offset by a 10 basis point increase in home sales gross profit resulting from a decrease in the amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes as a percentage of home sales revenue. To the extent we utilize sales incentives and price adjustments to generate an adequate volume of home closings, gross profit percentages will continue to be impacted.

Land Sales Revenue

     Land sales revenues increased to $5.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $0.7 million in the comparable period of 2009. Fluctuations in revenues from land sales are a function of how we manage our inventory levels in various markets. We generally purchase land and lots with the intent to build and sell homes on them; however, we occasionally purchase land that includes commercially zoned parcels which we typically sell to commercial developers, and we also sell residential lots or land parcels to manage our land and lot supply. Land and lot sales occur at unpredictable intervals and varying degrees of profitability. Therefore, the revenues and gross profit from land sales fluctuate from period to period. As of December 31, 2010, we had $2.6 million of land held for sale that we expect to sell in the next twelve months.

(1) A community may consist of land held for development, residential land and lots developed and under development, and construction in progress and finished homes. A particular community often includes inventory in more than one category. Further, a community may contain multiple parcels with varying product types (e.g. entry level and move-up single family detached, as well as attached product types). Some communities have no homes under construction, finished homes, or current home sales efforts or activity.

Inventory Impairments and Land Option Cost Write-offs

     At December 31, 2010, the assumptions utilized in our quarterly impairment evaluation reflected our expectation of continued challenging conditions and uncertainties in the homebuilding industry and in our markets. As we continue to evaluate the strength of the economy (measured largely in terms of job growth), the level of underlying demand for new homes and our operating performance, the level of impairments in future quarters will likely fluctuate and may increase.

     Our impairment evaluation indicated communities with a combined carrying value of $434.3 million as of December 31, 2010 had indicators of potential impairment, and these communities were evaluated for impairment. The analysis of the large majority of these communities assumed that sales prices in future periods will be equal to or lower than current sales order prices in each community, or in comparable communities, in order to generate an acceptable absorption rate. For a minority of communities that we do not intend to develop or operate in current market conditions, slight increases over current sales prices were assumed. While it is difficult to determine a timeframe for a given community in the current market conditions, we estimated the remaining lives of these communities to range from six months to in excess of ten years. In performing this analysis, we utilized a range of discount rates for communities of 14% to 20%. Through this evaluation process, we determined that communities with a carrying value of $26.2 million as of December 31, 2010, were impaired. As a result, during the three months ended December 31, 2010, we recorded impairment charges of $6.4 million to reduce the carrying value of the impaired communities to their estimated fair value, as compared to $1.7 million of impairment charges in the same period of 2009. In the three months ended December 31, 2010, approximately 77% of the impairment charges were recorded to residential land and lots and land held for development, and approximately 23% of the charges were recorded to construction in progress and finished homes inventory, compared to 63% and 37%, respectively, in the same period of 2009.

     Of the remaining $408.1 million carrying value of communities with impairment indicators which were determined not to be impaired at December 31, 2010, the largest concentrations were in California (22%), Illinois (16%), Florida (11%), Arizona (9%), New Jersey (7%) and Texas (6%). It is possible that our estimate of undiscounted cash flows from these communities may change and could result in a future need to record impairment charges to adjust the carrying value of these assets to their estimated fair value. There are several factors which could lead to changes in the estimates of undiscounted future cash flows for a given community. The most significant of these include pricing and incentive levels actually realized by the community, the rate at which the homes are sold and the costs incurred to develop the lots and construct the homes. The pricing and incentive levels are often inter-related with sales pace within a community, such that a price reduction can typically be expected to increase the sales pace. Further, both of these factors are heavily influenced by the competitive pressures facing a given community from both new homes and existing homes, some of which may result from foreclosures. If conditions in the broader economy, homebuilding industry or specific markets in which we operate worsen, and as we re-evaluate specific community pricing and incentives, construction and development plans, and our overall land sale strategies, we may be required to evaluate additional communities or re-evaluate previously impaired communities for potential impairment. These evaluations may result in additional impairment charges.

     Based on our quarterly reviews of land and lot option contracts, we have written off earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to contracts for land or lots which are not expected to be acquired. During the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we wrote off $2.0 million and recovered $0.5 million, respectively, of earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs related to land option contracts. At December 31, 2010, outstanding earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs associated with our portfolio of land and lot option purchase contracts totaled $12.4 million and $11.9 million, respectively.

     The inventory impairment charges and write-offs of earnest money deposits and pre-acquisition costs reduced total homebuilding gross profit as a percentage of homebuilding revenues by approximately 110 basis points in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to 10 basis points in the same period of 2009.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expense

     SG&A expense from homebuilding activities decreased 7% to $118.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $128.4 million in the comparable period of 2009. As a percentage of homebuilding revenues, SG&A expense increased 390 basis points, to 15.5% in the three-month period ended December 31, 2010, from 11.6% in the comparable period of 2009. The largest component of our homebuilding SG&A expense is employee compensation and related costs, which represented 59% and 60% of SG&A costs in the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These costs decreased by 9%, to $70.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $77.1 million in the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a decline in the level of incentive compensation. Our homebuilding operations employed approximately 2,530 and 2,400 employees at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

     Our homebuilding SG&A expense as a percentage of revenues can vary significantly between quarters, depending largely on the fluctuations in quarterly revenue levels. We continually attempt to adjust our SG&A infrastructure to support our expected closings volume; however, we cannot make assurances that our actions will permit us to maintain or improve upon the current SG&A expense as a percentage of revenues. It has become more difficult to reduce SG&A expense as the size of our operations has decreased. If revenues decrease and we are unable to sufficiently adjust our SG&A, future SG&A expense as a percentage of revenues will increase.

Interest Incurred

     Homebuilding interest costs are incurred relative to the average level of our homebuilding debt outstanding during the period. Comparing the three months ended December 31, 2010 with the same period of 2009, interest incurred related to homebuilding debt decreased 29% to $35.2 million, primarily due to a 32% decrease in our average homebuilding debt.

     We capitalize homebuilding interest costs to inventory during active development and construction. Due to the decrease in the size of our operations, our inventory under active development and construction has been lower than our debt level; therefore, a portion of our interest incurred must be expensed. We expensed $16.2 million of homebuilding interest during the three-month period ended December 31, 2010, compared to $26.9 million of interest in the same period of 2009. Interest amortized to cost of sales, excluding interest written off with inventory impairment charges, was 3.2% of total home and land/lot cost of sales in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to 3.5% in the same period of 2009.

Gain/Loss on Early Retirement of Debt

     We retired $62.5 million principal amount of our senior notes prior to their maturity during the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to $173.2 million in the same period of 2009. We recognized a net loss of $1.5 million in the current quarter and a net gain of $1.6 million in the prior year quarter related to the early retirement of these notes, which represents the difference between the principal amount of the notes and the aggregate purchase price, less any unamortized discounts and fees.

Other Income

     Other income, net of other expenses, associated with homebuilding activities was $2.3 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to $1.5 million in the same period of 2009. The largest component of other income in both periods was interest income.

(1) Expenses maintained at the corporate level consist primarily of interest and property taxes, which are capitalized and amortized to cost of sales or expensed directly, and the expenses related to operating our corporate office. The amortization of capitalized interest and property taxes is allocated to each segment based on the segment’s revenue, while interest expense and those expenses associated with the corporate office are allocated to each segment based on the segment’s average inventory.

     East Region — Homebuilding revenues decreased 21% in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a 21% decrease in the number of homes closed, with decreases occurring in our Charlotte, Coastal Carolina, New Jersey, and Virginia markets. The region reported a loss before income taxes of $4.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to income of $2.1 million for the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of declines in revenue and gross profit. Gross profit from home sales as a percentage of home sales revenue (home sales gross profit percentage) decreased 340 basis points in the current year quarter from the prior year due to an increased use of incentives to sell homes and weakening market conditions during the current year quarter. While total SG&A expenses were essentially unchanged from the prior year, they increased as a percentage of homebuilding revenues and contributed 330 basis points to the region’s loss before income taxes as a percentage of homebuilding revenues.

     Midwest Region — Homebuilding revenues decreased 35% in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a 37% decrease in the number of homes closed, with the largest decrease occurring in our Chicago market. The region reported a loss before income taxes of $4.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to a loss of $0.5 million for the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of declines in revenue and gross profit. Home sales gross profit percentage decreased 350 basis points in the current year quarter from the prior year quarter due to an increased use of incentives to sell homes and weakening market conditions, primarily in our Chicago market. While total SG&A expenses decreased from the prior year, they increased as a percentage of homebuilding revenues and contributed 380 basis points to the region’s loss before income taxes as a percentage of homebuilding revenues.

     Southeast Region — Homebuilding revenues decreased 18% in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a 27% decrease in the number of homes closed, with the largest decreases occurring in our Atlanta, North Florida, and Orlando markets. The region reported a loss before income taxes of $1.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to income of $1.0 million for the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of declines in revenue. Home sales gross profit percentage increased 110 basis points in the current year quarter from the prior year quarter due to higher margins on homes closed in our Atlanta, Orlando, and South Florida markets. While total SG&A expenses were essentially unchanged from the prior year, they increased as a percentage of homebuilding revenues and contributed 310 basis points to the region’s loss before income taxes as a percentage of homebuilding revenues.

     South Central Region — Homebuilding revenues decreased 36% in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a 39% decrease in the number of homes closed, with the largest decreases occurring in our Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio markets. The region reported income before income taxes of $4.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to $25.5 million for the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of declines in revenue and gross profit. Home sales gross profit percentage decreased 160 basis points in the current year quarter from the prior year quarter due to lower margins, primarily in our Fort Worth and Austin markets. While total SG&A expenses decreased from the prior year, they increased as a percentage of homebuilding revenues and contributed 340 basis points to the region’s decrease in income before income taxes as a percentage of homebuilding revenues.

     Southwest Region — Homebuilding revenues decreased 36% in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a 41% decrease in the number of homes closed, with the largest decrease occurring in our Phoenix market. The region reported a loss before income taxes of $3.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to income of $4.6 million for the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of declines in revenue and gross profit. Home sales gross profit percentage decreased 420 basis points in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to the same period of 2009. The decrease was primarily a result of the increased use of incentives to sell homes and weakening market conditions in all of the region’s markets and, to a lesser extent, increased expenses associated with construction defect claims in the Phoenix market. Inventory impairment charges and earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs also increased to $2.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $0.3 million in the prior year quarter. While total SG&A expenses decreased from the prior year, they increased as a percentage of homebuilding revenues and contributed 260 basis points to the region’s loss before income taxes as a percentage of homebuilding revenues.

     West Region — Homebuilding revenues decreased 33% in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period of 2009, primarily due to a 34% decrease in the number of homes closed, with the largest decreases occurring in our Southern California and Seattle markets. The region reported a loss before income taxes of $14.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to income of $3.4 million for the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of declines in revenue and gross profit. In addition, inventory impairment charges and earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs were $5.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to net recoveries of $0.5 million in the same period of 2009. The region’s home sales gross profit percentage decreased 60 basis points in the three months ended December 31 2010, compared to the same period of 2009. While total SG&A expenses decreased from the prior year, they increased as a percentage of homebuilding revenues and contributed 590 basis points to the region’s loss before income taxes as a percentage of homebuilding revenues.

(1) Excludes approximately 7,000 and 7,300 lots at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively, representing lots controlled under lot option contracts for which we do not expect to exercise our option to purchase the land or lots, but the underlying contract has not yet been terminated. We have reserved the deposits related to these contracts.

     At December 31, 2010, we owned or controlled approximately 120,600 lots, compared to approximately 119,400 lots at September 30, 2010. Of the 120,600 total lots, we controlled approximately 31,200 lots (26%), with a total remaining purchase price of approximately $994.7 million, through land and lot option purchase contracts with a total of $12.4 million in earnest money deposits. At December 31, 2010, approximately 23,900 of our owned lots were finished.

     We had a total of approximately 9,100 homes in inventory, including approximately 1,200 model homes at December 31, 2010, compared to approximately 9,500 homes in inventory, including approximately 1,200 model homes at September 30, 2010. Of our total homes in inventory, approximately 5,000 and 5,200 were unsold at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively. At December 31, 2010, approximately 3,000 of our unsold homes were completed, of which approximately 1,100 homes had been completed for more than six months. At September 30, 2010, approximately 3,200 of our unsold homes were completed, of which approximately 800 homes had been completed for more than six months.

     Our current strategy is to take advantage of market opportunities by entering into new lot option contracts to purchase finished lots in selected communities to potentially increase sales volumes and profitability. We will attempt to renegotiate existing lot option contracts as necessary to reduce our lot costs and better match the scheduled lot purchases with new home demand in each community. We also manage our inventory of homes under construction by selectively starting construction on unsold homes to capture new home demand, while monitoring the number and aging of unsold homes and aggressively marketing our unsold, completed homes in inventory.

Mortgage Loan Activity

     In the three-month period ended December 31, 2010, total first-lien loans originated or brokered by DHI Mortgage for our homebuyers decreased by 33%, corresponding to the 34% decrease in the number of homes closed by our homebuilding operations. Our mortgage capture rate (the percentage of total home closings by our homebuilding operations for which DHI Mortgage handled the homebuyers’ financing) was 62% in the current quarter and 61% in the comparable prior year quarter.

     Home closings from our homebuilding operations constituted 82% of DHI Mortgage loan originations in the three-month period ended December 31, 2010, compared to 90% in the comparable period of 2009, reflecting DHI Mortgage’s continued focus on supporting the captive business provided by our homebuilding operations. The relatively lower captive percentage in the current quarter reflects a higher level of refinancing activity than in the prior year quarter.

     The number of loans sold to third-party purchasers decreased by 25% in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from the comparable period of 2009, corresponding to the 27% decrease in the number of loans originated. Loans are typically sold within 30 days of origination. Virtually all of the mortgage loans originated during the three months ended December 31, 2010 and mortgage loans held for sale on December 31, 2010 were eligible for sale to the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) or Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA). Approximately 83% of the mortgage loans sold by DHI Mortgage during the three months ended December 31, 2010 were sold to two major financial institutions pursuant to their loan purchase agreements. If we are unable to sell our mortgages to these or other purchasers, our ability to originate and sell mortgage loans could be significantly reduced and the profitability of our financial services operations would be negatively impacted.

Financial Services Revenues and Expenses

     Revenues from the financial services segment decreased 9%, to $21.2 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $23.3 million in the comparable period of 2009. Loan origination fees decreased 11%, to $4.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $4.6 million in the comparable period of 2009, while the number of loans originated decreased 27% during the same period. Revenues from the sale of servicing rights and gains from sale of mortgages decreased 13%, to $12.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $14.6 million in the comparable period of 2009. Charges related to recourse obligations were $1.8 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to $2.8 million in the same period of 2009. The calculation of our required repurchase loss reserve is based upon an analysis of repurchase requests received, our actual repurchases and losses through the disposition of such loans, discussions with our mortgage purchasers and analysis of the mortgages we originated. While we believe that we have adequately reserved for losses on known and projected repurchase requests, if either actual repurchases or the losses incurred resolving those repurchases exceed our expectations, additional recourse expense may be incurred. Also, a subsidiary of ours reinsured a portion of the private mortgage insurance written on loans originated by DHI Mortgage in prior years. Charges to increase reserves for expected losses on the reinsured loans were $0.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to $0.9 million in the same period of 2009.

     Financial services general and administrative (G&A) expense increased slightly to $19.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $18.7 million in the comparable period of 2009. The largest component of G&A expense is employee compensation and related costs, which represented 74% and 77% of G&A costs in the three-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These costs decreased 2%, to $14.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2010, from $14.3 million in the comparable period of 2009. The decrease in the current quarter was due to a slight decrease in the number of financial services employees to 620 at December 31, 2010, from 640 at December 31, 2009.

     As a percentage of financial services revenues, excluding the effects of recourse and reinsurance expense, G&A expense in the three-month period ended December 31, 2010 increased to 80.5%, from 69.3% in the comparable period of 2009. The increase was primarily due to the reduction in revenue resulting from the decrease in mortgage loan volume. Fluctuations in financial services G&A expense as a percentage of revenues can be expected to occur as some expenses are not directly related to mortgage loan volume or to changes in the amount of revenue earned.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSOLIDATED

Income (Loss) before Income Taxes

     Loss before income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $19.9 million, compared to income before income taxes of $42.8 million for the same period of 2009. The difference in our operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2010 compared to a year ago is primarily due to a lower volume of homes closed which resulted in lower revenues and a lower gross profit from home sales revenues.

Income Taxes

     The provision for income taxes attributable to continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $0.5 million compared to a benefit from income taxes of $149.2 million in the comparable period of the prior year that resulted from net operating loss (NOL) carrybacks. We do not have meaningful effective tax rates for these periods because our net deferred tax assets are offset fully by a valuation allowance.

     We had income taxes receivable of $14.3 million and $16.0 million at December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, respectively. The income taxes receivable at December 31, 2010 relates to federal and state income tax refunds we expect to receive.

     At December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, our net deferred tax assets, which are fully offset by a valuation allowance, were $905.6 million and $902.6 million, respectively. The realization of our deferred tax assets ultimately depends upon the existence of sufficient taxable income in future periods. We continue to analyze the positive and negative evidence in determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to our deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance could be reduced in future periods if there is sufficient evidence indicating it is more likely than not that a portion or all of our deferred tax assets will be realized. The accounting for deferred taxes is based upon estimates of future results. Differences between the anticipated and actual outcomes of these future results could have a material impact on our deferred tax assets and consolidated results of operations or financial position.

     We classify interest and penalties on income taxes as income tax expense. At December 31, 2010, the amount of our unrecognized tax benefits was $66.5 million, with a related accrual for interest of $16.4 million. It is reasonably possible that, within the next 12 months, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits and corresponding interest may decrease as much as $59.2 million in the aggregate as a result of a ruling request filed by us with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concerning capitalization of inventory costs. If the IRS rules favorably on the ruling request, our unrecognized tax benefits and related interest would be reduced, resulting in a benefit from income taxes in our consolidated statement of operations.

     We are subject to federal income tax and to income tax in multiple states. The statute of limitations for our major tax jurisdictions remains open for examination for fiscal years 2004 through 2010. We are currently being audited by various states and our federal NOL refunds from fiscal 2008 and 2009 are subject to Congressional Joint Committee review.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

     We have historically funded our homebuilding and financial services operations with cash flows from operating activities, borrowings under our bank credit facilities and the issuance of new debt securities. During the challenging homebuilding market conditions experienced over the past few years, we have been operating with a primary focus to generate cash flows through reductions in assets, as well as through profitable operations. Our cash generation has also benefitted from income tax refunds. The generation of cash flow has allowed us to increase our liquidity and strengthen our balance sheet, and has placed us in a position to be able to invest in market opportunities as they arise. We do not expect to generate as much cash in fiscal 2011 as we have in any of the past four fiscal years. Depending upon future homebuilding market conditions and our expectations for these conditions, we may use a portion of our cash balances to increase our operating assets. We intend to maintain adequate liquidity and balance sheet strength, and we will continue to evaluate opportunities to access the capital markets as they become available.

-45-

     At December 31, 2010, our ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capital was 17.0%, compared to 28.0% at December 31, 2009 and 16.1% at September 30, 2010. Net homebuilding debt to total capital consists of homebuilding notes payable net of cash and marketable securities divided by total capital net of cash and marketable securities (homebuilding notes payable net of cash and marketable securities plus total equity). The decrease in our ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capital at December 31, 2010 as compared to the ratio a year earlier was primarily due to our lower debt balance at December 31, 2010, which resulted from maturities, redemptions and repurchases of senior notes. As compared to the ratio at September 30, 2010, the increase in our ratio was primarily due to a decrease in cash, which was partially offset by a reduction in our debt balance. Our ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capital remains well under our historical target operating range of 45% due to the ongoing downturn in the homebuilding market. We believe that our strong balance sheet and liquidity position will allow us to be flexible in reacting to changing market conditions. However, future period-end net homebuilding debt to total capital ratios may be higher than the 17.0% ratio achieved at December 31, 2010.

     We believe that the ratio of net homebuilding debt to total capital is useful in understanding the leverage employed in our homebuilding operations and comparing us with other homebuilders. We exclude the debt of our financial services business because it is separately capitalized and its obligation under its repurchase agreement is substantially collateralized and not guaranteed by our parent company or any of our homebuilding entities. Because of its capital function, we include our homebuilding cash and marketable securities as a reduction of our homebuilding debt and total capital. For comparison to our ratios of net homebuilding debt to capital above, at December 31, 2010 and 2009, and at September 30, 2010, our ratios of homebuilding debt to total capital, without netting cash and marketable securities balances, were 43.9%, 52.9% and 44.3%, respectively.

     We believe that we will be able to fund our near-term working capital needs and debt obligations from existing cash resources and our mortgage repurchase facility. For our longer-term capital requirements, we will evaluate the need to issue new debt or equity securities through the public capital markets or obtain additional bank financing as market conditions may permit.

Homebuilding Capital Resources

     Cash and Cash Equivalents — At December 31, 2010, we had available homebuilding cash and cash equivalents of $1.2 billion.

     Marketable Securities — At December 31, 2010, we had marketable securities of $296.6 million. Our marketable securities consist of government agency securities, foreign government securities, corporate debt securities, and certificates of deposit.

     Secured Letter of Credit Agreements — We have secured letter of credit agreements with five banks which require us to deposit cash, in an amount approximating the balance of letters of credit outstanding, as collateral with the issuing banks. At December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010, the amount of cash restricted for this purpose totaled $45.1 million and $52.6 million, respectively, and is included in homebuilding restricted cash on our consolidated balance sheets.

     Public Unsecured Debt — The indentures governing our senior notes impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At December 31, 2010, we were in compliance with all of the limitations and restrictions that form a part of the public debt obligations.

     Shelf Registration Statement — We have an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the SEC in September 2009, registering debt and equity securities which we may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined.

Financial Services Capital Resources

     Cash and Cash Equivalents — At December 31, 2010, the amount of financial services cash and cash equivalents was $21.0 million.

-46-

     Mortgage Repurchase Facility — Our mortgage subsidiary entered into a mortgage sale and repurchase agreement (the “mortgage repurchase facility”) on March 28, 2008. The mortgage repurchase facility, which is accounted for as a secured financing, provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties against the transfer of funds by the counterparties, thereby becoming purchased loans. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 120 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. The capacity of the facility is $100 million, with a provision allowing an increase in the capacity to $125 million during the last five business days of any fiscal quarter and the first seven business days of the following fiscal quarter. The maturity date of the facility is March 4, 2011.

     As of December 31, 2010, $167.8 million of mortgage loans held for sale were pledged under the repurchase agreement. These mortgage loans had a collateral value of $157.0 million. DHI Mortgage has the option to fund a portion of its repurchase obligations in advance. As a result of advance paydowns totaling $135.3 million, DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $21.7 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at December 31, 2010 at a 3.8% annual interest rate.

     The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by either D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee our homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported monthly. At December 31, 2010, our mortgage subsidiary was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility.

     In the past, we have been able to renew or extend our mortgage credit facilities on satisfactory terms prior to their maturities, and obtain temporary additional commitments through amendments to the credit agreements during periods of higher than normal volumes of mortgages held for sale. The liquidity of our financial services business depends upon its continued ability to renew and extend the mortgage repurchase facility or to obtain other additional financing in sufficient capacities.

Operating Cash Flow Activities

     For the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, net cash provided by our operating activities was $49.5 million and $220.0 million, respectively. During the current quarter, a significant portion of the net cash provided by our operating activities was due to a decrease in our mortgage loans held for sale. During the prior year quarter, a significant portion of the net cash provided by our operating activities was due to a federal income tax refund. Also, we generated cash flows from operations by reducing our inventories and generating a profit during the prior year quarter. The net cash provided by our operating activities during the past three fiscal years has resulted in substantial liquidity. This liquidity gives us the flexibility to determine the appropriate operating strategy for each of our communities and to take advantage of opportunities in the market. While we have limited our purchases of undeveloped land and our development spending on land we own, we are purchasing or contracting to purchase finished lots in many markets to potentially increase sales and home closing volumes and return to sustainable profitability. We plan to continue to manage our inventories by monitoring the number and aging of unsold homes and aggressively marketing our unsold, completed homes in inventory. As we work toward these goals, we expect to generate less cash flow from operations than we have over the past four fiscal years. Depending upon future homebuilding market conditions and our expectations for these conditions, we may use a portion of our cash balances to increase our inventories.

Investing Cash Flow Activities

     For the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, net cash provided by (used in) our investing activities was $2.8 million and ($0.4) million, respectively. During the current quarter, $123.3 million was used to purchase marketable securities and proceeds from the sale or maturity of these securities during the quarter totaled $122.3 million. Additionally, in the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we used $3.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively, to invest in purchases of property and equipment, primarily model home furniture and office equipment. These purchases are generally not significant relative to our total assets or cash flows. Also affecting our investing cash flows were changes in restricted cash, which are primarily due to fluctuations in the balance of our outstanding letters of credit.

Financing Cash Flow Activities

     During the last two years, the majority of our short-term financing needs have been funded with cash generated from operations and borrowings available under our financial services credit facility. Long-term financing needs of our homebuilding operations have historically been funded with the issuance of senior unsecured debt securities through the public capital markets. During the three months ended December 31, 2010, we repurchased a total of $62.5 million principal amount of various issues of senior notes for an aggregate purchase price of $63.8 million, plus accrued interest. During the three months ended December 31, 2009, we repurchased a total of $173.2 million principal amount of various issues of senior notes for an aggregate purchase price of $171.0 million, plus accrued interest. Our homebuilding senior and convertible senior notes are guaranteed by substantially all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries other than our financial services subsidiaries and certain insignificant subsidiaries.

     During the three months ended December 31, 2010, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per common share, which was paid on December 8, 2010 to stockholders of record on November 24, 2010. In January 2011, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per common share, payable on February 18, 2011 to stockholders of record on February 10, 2011. Quarterly cash dividends of $0.0375 per common share were declared in the comparable quarters of fiscal 2010. The declaration of future cash dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, cash flows, capital requirements, our financial condition and general business conditions.

Changes in Capital Structure

     In July, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of debt securities and $100 million of our common stock. These authorizations are effective through July 31, 2011. Repurchases of senior notes through December 31, 2010 reduced the debt repurchase authorization to $421.3 million.

     Recently, our primary non-operating use of available capital has been to repay debt. We continue to evaluate our alternatives for future non-operating sources and uses of our available capital, including debt repayments, dividend payments or common stock repurchases, while considering the overall level of our cash balances within the constraints of our balance sheet leverage targets and our liquidity targets.

-48-

CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS, COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

     Our primary contractual cash obligations for our homebuilding and financial services segments are payments under our debt agreements and lease payments under operating leases. Purchase obligations of our homebuilding segment represent specific performance requirements under lot option purchase agreements that may require us to purchase land contingent upon the land seller meeting certain obligations. We expect to fund our contractual obligations in the ordinary course of business through a combination of our existing cash resources, cash flows generated from operations, renewed or amended mortgage repurchase facilities and, if needed or believed advantageous, the issuance of new debt or equity securities through the public capital markets as market conditions may permit.

     At December 31, 2010, our homebuilding operations had outstanding letters of credit of $44.2 million, all of which were cash collateralized, and surety bonds of $818.7 million, issued by third parties, to secure performance under various contracts. We expect that our performance obligations secured by these letters of credit and bonds will generally be completed in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with the applicable contractual terms. When we complete our performance obligations, the related letters of credit and bonds are generally released shortly thereafter, leaving us with no continuing obligations. We have no material third-party guarantees.

     Our mortgage subsidiary enters into various commitments related to the lending activities of our mortgage operations. Further discussion of these commitments is provided in Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” under Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

     We enter into land and lot option purchase contracts to procure land or lots for the construction of homes. Lot option contracts enable us to control significant lot positions with limited capital investment and substantially reduce the risks associated with land ownership and development. Within the land and lot option purchase contracts at December 31, 2010, there were a limited number of contracts, representing $6.8 million of remaining purchase price, subject to specific performance clauses which may require us to purchase the land or lots upon the land sellers meeting their obligations. Further discussion of our land option contracts is provided in the “Land and Lot Position and Homes in Inventory” section included herein.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     As disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, inventories and cost of sales, land and lot option purchase contracts, goodwill, warranty and insurance claim costs and self-insurance, income taxes and stock-based compensation. Since September 30, 2010, there have been no significant changes to those critical accounting policies and estimates.

SEASONALITY

     We have typically experienced seasonal variations in our quarterly operating results and capital requirements. Prior to the current downturn in the homebuilding industry, we generally had more homes under construction, closed more homes and had greater revenues and operating income in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. This seasonal activity increased our working capital requirements for our homebuilding operations during the third and fourth fiscal quarters and increased our funding requirements for the mortgages we originated in our financial services segment at the end of these quarters. As a result of seasonal activity, our quarterly results of operations and financial position at the end of a particular fiscal quarter are not necessarily representative of the balance of our fiscal year.

     In contrast to our typical seasonal results, the weakness in homebuilding market conditions during the past four years has mitigated our historical seasonal variations. Also, in fiscal 2010 the expiration of the federal homebuyer tax credit impacted the timing of our construction activities, home sales and closing volumes. Although we may experience our typical historical seasonal pattern in the future, given the current market conditions, we can make no assurances as to when or whether this pattern will recur.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     Some of the statements contained in this report, as well as in other materials we have filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, statements made by us in periodic press releases and oral statements we make to analysts, stockholders and the press in the course of presentations about us, may be construed as “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. These forward-looking statements typically include the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “consider,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “intend,” “objective,” “plan,” “predict,” “projection,” “seek,” “strategy,” “target,” “will” or other words of similar meaning. Any or all of the forward-looking statements included in this report and in any other of our reports or public statements may not approximate actual experience, and the expectations derived from them may not be realized, due to risks, uncertainties and other factors. As a result, actual results may differ materially from the expectations or results we discuss in the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to:

• the continuing downturn in the homebuilding industry, including further deterioration in industry or broader economic conditions;

• the continuing constriction of the credit markets, which could limit our ability to access capital and increase our costs of capital;

• the reduction in availability of mortgage financing, increases in mortgage interest rates and the effects of government programs;

• the limited success of our strategies in responding to adverse conditions in the industry;

• the impact of an inflationary or deflationary environment;

• changes in general economic, real estate and other business conditions;

• the risks associated with our inventory ownership position in changing market conditions;

• supply risks for land, materials and labor;

• changes in the costs of owning a home;

• the effects of governmental regulations and environmental matters on our homebuilding operations;

• the effects of governmental regulation on our financial services operations;

• the uncertainties inherent in home warranty and construction defect claims matters;

• our substantial debt and our ability to comply with related debt covenants, restrictions and limitations;

• competitive conditions within our industry;

• our ability to effect any future growth strategies successfully;

• our ability to realize our deferred income tax asset; and

• our ability to utilize our tax losses, which could be substantially limited if we experienced an ownership change as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.

     We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. However, any further disclosures made on related subjects in subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K should be consulted. Additional information about issues that could lead to material changes in performance and risk factors that have the potential to affect us is contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, including the section entitled “Risk Factors,” which is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term debt. We monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates and utilize both fixed and variable rate debt. For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the value of the debt instrument, but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in interest rates generally do not impact the fair value of the debt instrument, but may affect our future earnings and cash flows. Except in very limited circumstances, we do not have an obligation to prepay fixed-rate debt prior to maturity and, as a result, interest rate risk and changes in fair value would not have a significant impact on our cash flows related to our fixed-rate debt until such time as we are required to refinance, repurchase or repay such debt.

     We are exposed to interest rate risk associated with our mortgage loan origination services. We manage interest rate risk through the use of forward sales of mortgage-backed securities (MBS), Eurodollar Futures Contracts (EDFC) and put options on MBS and EDFC. Use of the term “hedging instruments” in the following discussion refers to these securities collectively, or in any combination. We do not enter into or hold derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

     Interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) are extended to borrowers who have applied for loan funding and who meet defined credit and underwriting criteria. Typically, the IRLCs have a duration of less than six months. Some IRLCs are committed immediately to a specific purchaser through the use of best-efforts whole loan delivery commitments, while other IRLCs are funded prior to being committed to third-party purchasers. The hedging instruments related to IRLCs are classified and accounted for as derivative instruments in an economic hedge, with gains and losses recognized in current earnings. Hedging instruments related to funded, uncommitted loans are accounted for at fair value, with changes recognized in current earnings, along with changes in the fair value of the funded, uncommitted loans. The fair value change related to the hedging instruments generally offsets the fair value change in the uncommitted loans and the fair value change, which for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was not significant, is recognized in current earnings. At December 31, 2010, hedging instruments used to mitigate interest rate risk related to uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale and uncommitted IRLCs totaled $135.3 million. Uncommitted IRLCs, the duration of which are generally less than six months, totaled approximately $110.3 million, and uncommitted mortgage loans held for sale totaled approximately $33.7 million at December 31, 2010.

     The following table sets forth principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value of our debt obligations as of December 31, 2010. The interest rate for our variable rate debt represents the interest rate on our mortgage repurchase facility. Because the mortgage repurchase facility is effectively secured by certain mortgage loans held for sale which are typically sold within 60 days, its outstanding balance is included as a variable rate maturity in the most current period presented.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files, furnishes, submits or otherwise provides the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, in such a manner as to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.

     There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

-52-

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     We are involved in lawsuits and other contingencies in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of such contingencies cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the liabilities arising from these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, to the extent the liability arising from the ultimate resolution of any matter exceeds our estimates reflected in the recorded reserves relating to such matter, we could incur additional charges that could be significant.

     In October 2010, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (“Control Board”), Los Angeles Region, notified a subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) of the Company of its intention to assess a penalty against the Subsidiary regarding a previously issued notice of violation (“NOV”). The NOV related to a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit (the “Permit”) obtained on the Subsidiary’s behalf in 2003 to develop a project in California. The Permit allowed the Subsidiary to discharge treated groundwater from the project in connection with dewatering the site during subsurface grading operations. A third-party environmental consultant and third-party subcontractor were engaged on Subsidiary’s behalf to design and implement the dewatering operation and to perform all monitoring and reporting functions under the Permit. The NOV alleges Permit violations during the 2003 to 2007 time period related to failure to submit monitoring reports, exceeding effluent limits and failure to comply with monitoring or reporting of permitted pollutant exceedances. The estimated penalty under the NOV is expected to be approximately $172,500. The estimated penalty is not final, but we currently expect the final amount will not differ materially from our estimate. The Subsidiary has not admitted any wrongdoing and is pursuing the subcontractor, the now defunct third-party environmental consultant and their insurers.

Interest expensed and interest incurred include losses on early retirement of debt of $12.1 million and $17.9 million in fiscal 2007 and 2006, respectively.

(1) On October 1, 2009, the Company adopted the FASB’s authoritative guidance for accounting for debt with conversion options, which specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. As a result, fiscal 2009 interest expense and interest incurred were increased by $4.5 million and $8.2 million, respectively, due to the retrospective application of the change in accounting for the Company’s 2% convertible senior notes issued in May 2009.
