Miami, September 19, 2011 Lennar Corporation (NYSE: LEN and LEN.B), one of the nations largest homebuilders, today reported results for its third quarter ended August 31, 2011. Third quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar in 2011 were $20.7 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to third quarter net earnings attributable to Lennar of $30.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in 2010.
Stuart Miller, Chief Executive Officer of Lennar Corporation, said, We are pleased to report EPS of $0.11 for our third fiscal quarter of 2011, making this our sixth consecutive quarter of profitability. We generated profits in all of our business segments, despite operating in very challenging economic conditions.
Mr. Miller continued, On an encouraging note, we have seen demand for home purchases slowly return to the marketplace, driven by low home prices and all-time low interest rates. Limiting that demand is tight and tightening lending standards, high unemployment and low overall consumer confidence, which continue to weigh heavily on the purchase of new homes.
During the quarter, we continued to focus on our homebuilding business. We benefitted greatly from our strategic capital investments in new high margin communities, which contributed to our gross margin of 21.1%. Our intense focus on efficient business practice through our Everythings Included program, product re-engineering and S,G&A reduction all contributed to a profitable quarter. Our new orders were up 11% year-over-year, representing the first quarterly increase in over five years, excluding the first half of 2010 which had a positive impact from the Federal homebuyer tax credit.
Our Rialto segment continued to be profitable generating $5.7 million of profit this quarter, despite taking a $10.1 million mark-to-market charge in our PPIP investment. We have successfully completed closings of approximately $600 million of equity commitments for our Rialto Real Estate Fund which will provide capital to help our Rialto segment continue to grow.
Mr. Miller concluded, We continue to make significant progress in a difficult operating environment as we push forward through the hard work and dedication of our associates. Our strong balance sheet positions us well to capitalize on opportunities and assuming market conditions remain stable, we expect to be profitable again in the fourth quarter and for the year.

The decrease in home deliveries was primarily in the Companys Homebuilding East and West segments, partially
3-3-3
offset by an increase in home deliveries in Homebuilding Other. The average sales price of homes delivered increased to $247,000 in the third quarter of 2011 from $240,000 in the same period last year. Sales incentives offered to homebuyers were $33,600 per home delivered in the third quarter of 2011, or 12.0% as a percentage of home sales revenue, compared to $33,900 per home delivered in the second quarter of 2011, or 12.1% as a percentage of home sales revenue, and $30,600 per home delivered in the third quarter of 2010, or 11.3% as a percentage of home sales revenue.
Gross margins on home sales were $147.6 million, or 21.1%, in the third quarter of 2011, which included a 120 basis point benefit related to changes in the Companys cost-to-complete estimates for homebuilding communities in the close-out phase. This benefit primarily impacted the Companys Homebuilding West segment and was offset by valuation adjustments that impacted the gross margin percentage by 130 basis points. Gross margins on home sales were $147.4 million, or 21.1%, in the third quarter of 2010, which included third-party recoveries related to Chinese drywall, offset by valuation adjustments, which resulted in a net 80 basis points benefit to the gross margin percentage. Gross profits on land sales totaled $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2010.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $100.3 million and $97.2 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2011 and 2010. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues from home sales was 14.3% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to 14.9% in the second quarter of 2011 and 13.9% in the third quarter of 2010.
Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities was ($4.6) million in the third quarter of 2011, primarily related to operating losses of the Lennar Homebuilding unconsolidated entities, compared to Lennar Homebuilding equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities of $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2010.
Lennar Homebuilding other income, net, totaled $6.9 million in the third quarter of 2011, net of $2.1 million of valuation adjustments to the Companys investments in unconsolidated entities. Lennar Homebuilding other income, net, totaled $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2010, net of a $9.2 million accrual established by the Company to cover claims arising under obligation guarantees.
Homebuilding interest expense was $42.4 million in the third quarter of 2011 ($17.8 million was included in cost of homes sold, $0.5 million in cost of land sold and $24.1 million in other interest expense), compared to $36.7 million in the third quarter of 2010 ($18.1 million was included in cost of homes sold, $0.9 million in cost of land sold and $17.7 million in other interest expense). Interest expense increased primarily due to an increase in the Companys outstanding debt compared to the same period last year.
Lennar Financial Services
Operating earnings for the Lennar Financial Services segment was $8.0 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to operating earnings of $6.8 million in the same period last year. The increase in profitability was primarily due to cost saving initiatives successfully implemented in our title operations.
4-4-4

In the third quarter of 2011, Rialto Investments other income, net, was $9.7 million, which consisted primarily of gains from acquisition of real estate owned through foreclosure, as well as gains from real estate sales, partially offset by expenses related to owning and maintaining those assets.
The segment also had equity in earnings (loss) from unconsolidated entities of ($6.5) million in the third quarter of 2011, consisting primarily of $10.1 million of unrealized losses related to the Companys share of the mark-to-market adjustments of the investment portfolio underlying the AllianceBernstein L.P. (AB) fund formed under the Federal governments Public-Private Investment Program (PPIP), partially offset by interest income earned by the AB PPIP fund and equity in earnings related to the Rialto Investments Real Estate Fund.

In the third quarter of 2011, expenses in this segment were $33.6 million, which consisted primarily of costs related to its portfolio operations, management of investments for others, due diligence expenses related to both completed and abandoned transactions, and other general and administrative expenses, compared to expenses of $26.2 million in the same period last year.

(1) | Amount represents interest incurred related to Lennar Homebuilding debt. |
(2) | EBIT is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as earnings before interest and taxes. This financial measure has been presented because the Company finds it important and useful in evaluating its performance and believes that it helps readers of the Company's financial statements compare its operations with those of its competitors. Although management finds EBIT to be an important measure in conducting and evaluating the Company's operations, this measure has limitations as an analytical tool as it is not reflective of the actual profitability generated by the Company during the period. Management compensates for the limitations of using EBIT by using this non-GAAP measure only to supplement the Company's GAAP results. Due to the limitations discussed, EBIT should not be viewed in isolation, as it is not a substitute for GAAP measures. |
