The fourth quarter 2008 results were also impacted by goodwill impairment charges of $11,686,000.

New orders for the 2009 fiscal year totaled 9,409 units, a 7% increase when compared to the 8,760 units reported for 2008.

Pre-tax income in the current quarter was favorably impacted primarily by a decrease in incentives given to borrowers.

Mortgage closed loan production for the 2009 fiscal year decreased 12% to $2,060,376,000. Income before tax from the mortgage banking segment for 2009 increased 32% to $35,331,000 from the $26,704,000 reported for 2008.
