NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Our
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of Forestar Group Inc., (Forestar) and all of its 100% owned, majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, ventures and other entities in which we have a controlling interest. We accountare collectively referred to as the Company unless the context otherwise requires. The Company accounts for ourits investment in other entities in which we haveit has significant influence over operations and financial policies using the equity method (we recognize our share of the entities’ income or loss and any preferential returns and treat distributions as a reduction of our investment). We eliminate all materialmethod. All intercompany accounts, transactions and transactions.balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Noncontrolling interests in consolidated pass-through entities are recognized before income taxes.
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events. Actual results can, and probably will, differ from those we currently estimate.
At year-end 2016, we had divested substantially all of our oil and gas working interest properties. As a result of this significant change in our operations, we have reported the results of operations and financial position of these assets as discontinued operations within the consolidated statements of income (loss) and consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. In addition, in 2016, we changed the name of the oil and gas segment to mineral resources to reflect the strategic shift from oil and gas working interest investments to owned mineral interests.
The transactions included in our net income in the consolidated statements of income (loss)operations are the same as those that would be presented in other comprehensive income. Thus, ourthe Company's net income equates to other comprehensive income.
We are evaluating
In October 2017, Forestar became a majority-owned subsidiary of D.R. Horton, Inc. (D.R. Horton) by virtue of a merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of D.R. Horton. Immediately following the impactmerger, D.R. Horton owned 75% of any potential changes in our accounting policies and related party transactionsthe Company's outstanding common stock. In connection with the merger, the Company entered into certain agreements with D.R. Horton post-mergerincluding a Stockholder’s Agreement, a Master Supply Agreement and will update our disclosures accordingly in future periods. The merger was accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP").a Shared Services Agreement. D.R. Horton wasis considered a related party of Forestar under GAAP. At September 30, 2020, D.R. Horton owned approximately 65% of the acquirer for accounting purposes and our consolidated financial statements will continue to be stated at historical cost.Company's outstanding common stock.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and other short-term instruments with original maturities of three months or less.
Cash Flows
The consolidated statements of cash flows for 2017, 2016 and 2015 reflect cash flows from both continuing and discontinued operations. Expenditures for the acquisition and development of single-family and multifamily real estate that we intend to develop for sale are classified as operating activities. Expenditures for the acquisition and development of properties to be held and operated, investment in oil and gas properties and equipment, and business acquisitions are classified as investing activities.
Change in Fiscal Year
As a result of
Following the Mergermerger with D.R. Horton, we have elected to change ourthe Company changed its fiscal year-end from December 31 to September 30, effective January 1, 2018. This change will align ouraligned Forestar's fiscal year-end reporting calendar with D.R. Horton. The Company's results of operations, cash flows and all transactions impacting stockholders' equity presented in this Form 10-K are for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 unless otherwise noted. This Form 10-K also includes an unaudited statement of operations for the comparable stub period of January 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017. See Note 17.
Environmental
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and Asset Retirement Obligations
We recognize environmental remediation liabilities on an undiscounted basis when environmental assessments or remediation are probableassumptions. These estimates and we can reasonably estimateassumptions affect the cost. We adjust these liabilities as further information is obtained or circumstances change. With the sale of our remaining oil and gas entities in 2017 we no longer have asset retirement obligations related to the abandonment and site restoration requirements that result from the acquisition, construction and development of oil and gas working interest properties, which we have divested. Prior to the sale, we recorded the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it was incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Accretion expense related to the asset retirement obligation and depletion expense related to capitalized asset retirement costs are included in cost of mineral resources and in discontinued operations on our consolidated statements of income (loss).
Fair Value Measurements
Financial instruments for which we did not elect the fair value option include cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivables, other assets, debt, accounts payable and other liabilities. With the exception of long-term notes receivable and debt, the carryingreported amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
We record goodwill when the purchase price of a business acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. We do not amortize goodwill or other indefinite lived intangible assets. Instead, we measure these assets for impairment based on the estimated fair values at least annually or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. We perform the annual impairment measurement in the fourth quarter of each year. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives.
In 2017, we sold our remaining owned mineral assets for approximately $85,700,000 and as a result of this sale we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $37,900,000 related to the mineral resources reporting unit goodwill which is included in cost of mineral resources on our consolidated statements of income (loss).
At year-end 2016, we performed our annual goodwill impairment evaluation and concluded that goodwill related to our central Texas water assets was impaired because the carrying value exceeded the fair value and recorded a $3,874,000 non-cash impairment charge which is included in cost of other on our consolidated statements of income (loss).
Income Taxes
We provide deferred income taxes using current tax rates for temporary differences between the financial accounting carrying value of assets and liabilities and their tax accounting carrying values. We recognizedisclosure of contingent assets and value income tax exposuresliabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Strategic Asset Sale
In February 2018, the Company entered into and closed on a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Starwood Land, L.P. (Starwood) to sell 24 legacy projects for $232.0 million which generated $217.5 million in net proceeds. This strategic asset sale included projects owned both directly and indirectly through ventures and consisted of approximately 750 developed and under development lots, over 4,000 future undeveloped lots, 730 unentitled acres in California, an interest in 1 multi-family operating property and a multi-family development site.
Adoption of New Accounting Standard
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires that lease assets and liabilities be recognized on the balance sheet and that key information about leasing arrangements be disclosed. The guidance was effective for the various taxing jurisdictions where we operate basedCompany beginning October 1, 2019 and did not have a material impact on laws, elections, commonly accepted tax positions, and management estimates. We include tax penalties and interest in income tax expense. We provideits consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As a valuation allowance for any deferred tax asset that is not likely to be recoverable in future periods.
When we believe a tax position is supportable but the outcome uncertain, we include the item in our tax return but do not recognize the related benefit in our provision for taxes. Instead, we record a reserve for unrecognized tax benefits, which represents our expectationresult of the most likely outcome consideringadoption of this standard on October 1, 2019, the technical meritsCompany recorded right of use assets of $2.7 million and specific factslease liabilities of $2.9 million. Lease right of use assets are included in other assets and lease liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

Revenue Recognition
Real estate revenue and related profit are generally recognized at the time of the position. Changesclosing of a sale, when title to and possession of the property are transferred to the buyer. The Company’s performance obligation, to deliver the agreed-upon land or lots, is generally satisfied at closing. However, there may be instances in which the Company has an unsatisfied remaining performance obligation at the time of closing. In these instances, the Company records contract liabilities and recognizes those revenues over time as the performance obligations are only made whencompleted. Generally, the Company's unsatisfied remaining performance obligations are expected to have an event occurs that changesoriginal duration of less than one year. See Note 4.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash, other short-term instruments with original maturities of three months or less and proceeds from land and lot closings held for the most likely outcome, such as settlement with the relevant tax authority, expiration of statutes of limitations, changes in tax law, or recent court rulings.Company’s benefit at title companies.
Property and Equipment
We carry property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We capitalize the cost of significant additions and improvements, and we expense the cost of repairs and maintenance. We capitalize interest costs incurred on major construction projects. We depreciate these assets using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Any changes to the estimated total development costs through completion,subsequent to the initial lot sales are generally allocated based on relative sales values. These estimates of future development costs are reevaluated at least annually, with any adjustments being allocated prospectively to the remaining units available for sale. We receive cashlots.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of significant additions and improvements is consummated,capitalized and the buyer’s initial investmentcost of repairs and maintenance is adequate, any receivablesexpensed as incurred. Depreciation generally is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset as follows:

Depreciation expense was $0.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million in fiscal 2020, 2019 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax expense is calculated using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are probable of collection, the usual risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, and we do not have significant continuing involvement with the real estate sold. If we determine that the earnings process is not complete, we defer recognition of any gain until earned.
We exclude from revenue amounts we collect from utility or improvement districts related to the conveyance of water, sewer and other infrastructure related assets. We exclude from revenue amounts we collect from customers that represent sales tax or other taxes that arerecognized based on the sale. Thesefuture tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and attributable to net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. When assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income in future periods and in the jurisdictions in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company records a valuation allowance when it determines it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets will not 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 consolidated results of operations or financial position. Also, changes in existing federal and state tax laws and tax rates could affect future tax results and the valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are includedrecognized in other accrued expenses until paid.the financial statements as a component of income tax expense. Significant judgment is required to evaluate uncertain tax positions. The Company evaluates its uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. The evaluations are based upon a number of factors, including changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, correspondence with tax authorities during the course of audits and effective settlement of audit issues. Changes in the recognition or measurement of uncertain tax positions could result in increases or decreases in the Company’s income tax expense in the period in which the change is made. See Note 11.
Share-Based
Stock-Based Compensation
We use
The Company’s stockholders formally authorize shares of its common stock to be available for future grants of stock-based compensation awards. From time to time, the Black-Scholes option pricing modelCompensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors authorizes the grant of stock-based compensation to determineits employees and directors from these available shares. At September 30, 2020, the outstanding stock-based compensation awards consist of restricted stock units. Grants of restricted stock units vest over a certain number of years as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Restricted stock units outstanding at September 30, 2020 have a remaining vesting period of 1 to 5 years.
The compensation expense for stock-based awards is based on the fair value of stock options,the award and a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model to determine the fair value of market-leveraged stock units and for stock options with market conditions. The fair value of equity-settled awards is determined on the grant date and the fair value of cash-settled awards is determined at period end. We expense share-based awards ratably over the vesting period or earlier based on retirement eligibility.
Owned Mineral Interests
Historically, we leased our mineral interests to third-party exploration and production entities, we retained a royalty interest and may have taken an additional participation in production, including a working interest. In first quarter 2017, we sold our remaining owned mineral assets.
Oil and Gas Properties (Discontinued Operations)
We used the successful efforts method of accounting for our oil and gas producing activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests leased, costs to drill and complete development of oil and gas wells and related asset retirement costs were capitalized. Costs to drill exploratory wells were capitalized pending determination of whether the wells had proved reserves and if determined incapable of producing commercial quantities of oil and gas these costs were expensed as dry hole costs. At year-end 2017, we had no capitalized exploratory well costs pending determination of proved reserves. Exploration costs include dry hole costs, geological and geophysical costs, expired unproved leasehold costs and seismic studies, and were expensed as incurred. Production costs incurred to maintain wells and related equipment were charged to expense as incurred.
Depreciation and depletion of producing oil and gas properties was calculated using the units-of-production method. Proved developed reserves were used to compute unit rates for unamortized tangible and intangible drilling and completion costs. Proved reserves were used to compute unit rates for unamortized acquisition of proved leasehold costs. Unit-of-production amortization rates were revised whenever there was an indication of the need for revision but at least once a year and those revisions were accounted for prospectively as changes in accounting estimates. We no longer own any oil and gas working interest properties.
Impairment of Oil and Gas Properties (Discontinued Operations)
Historically, we evaluated our oil and gas properties, including facilities and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicated that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. We estimate the expected undiscounted future cash flows of our oil and gas properties and compared such undiscounted future cash flows to the carrying amount of the oil and gas properties to determine if the carrying amount was recoverable. If the carrying amount exceeded the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, we adjusted the carrying amount of the oil and gas properties to fair value. The factors used to determine fair value were subject to our judgment and expertise and included, but were not limited to, recent sales prices of comparable properties, the present value of future cash flows net of estimated operating and development costs using estimates of proved reserves, future commodity pricing, future production estimates, anticipated capital expenditures, and various discount rates commensurate with the risk and current market conditions associated with realizing the expected cash flows projected.
Assessing unproved leasehold properties to determine impairment required significant judgment. We assessed our unproved leasehold properties periodically for impairment on a property-by-property basis based on remaining lease terms, drilling results or future plans to develop acreage. Impairment expense for proved and unproved oil and gas properties are included in cost of mineral resources and cost of oil and gas producing activities in discontinued operations.
Oil and Gas Working Interest Revenues (Discontinued Operations)
We recognized revenue as oil and gas was produced and sold. There were a significant amount of oil and gas properties which we did not operate and, therefore, revenue was typically recorded in the month of production based on an estimate of our share of volumes produced and prices realized. We obtained the most current available production data from the operators and price indices for each well to estimate the accrual of revenue. Obtaining production data on a timely basis for some wells was not feasible; therefore we utilized past production receipts and estimated sales price information to estimate accrual of working interest revenue on all other non-operated wells each month. Revisions to such estimates were recorded as actual results became known.
A majority of our sales were made under contractual arrangements with terms that were considered to be usual and customary in the oil and gas industry. The contracts were for periods of up to five years with prices determined upon a percentage of pre-determined and published monthly index price. The terms of these contracts did not have an effect on how we recognized revenue.
Mineral Resources Revenues
We recognized revenue from mineral bonus payments when we had received an executed agreement with the exploration company transferring the rights to any oil or gas it may find and requiring drilling be done within a specified period, the payment had been collected, and we had no obligation to refund the payment. We recognized revenue from delay rentals received if drilling had not started within the specified period and when the payment had been collected. We recognized revenue from mineral royalties and non-working interests when the minerals had been delivered to the buyer, the value was determinable, and we were reasonably sure of collection.
Other Revenues
We recognized revenue from timber sales upon passage of title, which occurred at delivery; when the price was fixed and determinable; and we were reasonably sure of collection. We recognized revenue from recreational leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We recognize revenue fromremaining vesting period. The fair values of restricted stock units are based on the saleCompany’s stock price at the date of water rights or groundwater reservation agreementsgrant. See Note 13.

Fair Value Measurements
The FASB's authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level hierarchy based upon receiptthe inputs to the valuation model of an executed agreement,asset or liability. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices in active markets to determine fair value. Non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis principally include real estate assets which the Company reviews for indicators of impairment when payment has been collected, all conditions toevents and circumstances indicate that the agreement have been met and we have no further performance obligations. Water delivery revenues are recognized as watercarrying value is delivered and metered at the delivery point.not recoverable. See Note 9.
Note 2 — New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In MarchJune 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information in determining credit loss estimates. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020 and is not expected to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, as part of its simplification initiative. The areas for simplification in this update
involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and the classification on the statement of cash flows. We adopted the updated standard on January 1, 2017. Effective first quarter 2017, stock-based compensation (SBC) excess tax benefits or deficiencies are reflected in the consolidated statements of income (loss) as a component of the provision for income taxes, whereas they previously were recognized in equity to the extent additional paid-in capital pool was available. Additionally, our consolidated statements of cash flows will now present excess tax benefits as an operating activity, if applicable. Finally, we have elected to account for forfeitures as they occur, rather than estimate expected forfeitures. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on ourits consolidated financial statements.position, results of operations or cash flows.
Pending Accounting Standards
In May 2014,December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), requiring an entity2019-12 related to recognizesimplifying the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitledaccounting for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers.income taxes. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The updated standard becomes effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Due to our change in fiscal year-end, this standard is effective for usthe Company beginning October 1, 2018.2021, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, permits two methods of adoption: retrospectivelyand it is not expected to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). We currently anticipate adopting the standard using the cumulative catch-up transition method. We anticipate this standard will not have a material impact on ourits consolidated financial statements. While we are continuing to assess all potential impactsposition, results of the standard, we expect revenue related to lot and tract sales to remain substantially unchanged. Due to the complexity of certain of our real estate sale transactions, the revenue recognition treatment required under the standard will be dependent on contract-specific terms, and may vary in some instances from recognition at the time of the sale closing.operations or cash flows.
In February 2016,March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires lessees2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform,” which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner thatcontracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The guidance was effective beginning March 12, 2020 and can be applied prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company will adopt this standard when LIBOR is similar to today's accounting. This guidance also eliminates today's real estate-specific provisions for all entities. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteriadiscontinued and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. This guidance is effective in 2019, and interim periods within that year. Early adoption is permitted. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. We are currently evaluating the effect the updated standard will have on our financial position and disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), in order to address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The updated standard is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our earnings, financial position and disclosures, but we dodoes not expect it to have a material effectimpact on ourits consolidated financial statements.statements and related disclosures.

Note 3 — Merger
On October 5, 2017, we merged with a subsidiary of D.R. Horton and we continued as the surviving entity (the "Merger"). In the Merger, each existing share of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (the “Former Forestar Common Stock”) (except for shares of our common stock that were held by us as treasury shares or by us or D.R. Horton or our or their respective subsidiaries) were converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holders of such shares of Former Forestar Common Stock, either an amount in cash equal to the Cash Consideration ($17.75 per share) or one new share of our common stock (the “New Forestar Common Stock”), subject to proration procedures applicable to oversubscription and undersubscription for the Cash Consideration described in the Merger Agreement. The aggregate amount of Cash Consideration paid by D.R. Horton to holders of Former Forestar Common Stock in the Merger was $558,256,000. In the Merger, 10,487,873 shares of New Forestar Common Stock (representing 25% of the outstanding shares
of New Forestar Common Stock immediately after the effective time) were issued to the holders of our common stock and 31,451,063 shares of New Forestar Common Stock (representing 75% of the outstanding share of the New Forestar Common Stock immediately after the effective time) were issued to D.R. Horton.
Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time, each equity award made or otherwise denominated in shares of Former Forestar Common Stock that was outstanding immediately prior to the effective time under our equity compensation plans was cancelled and of no further force or effect as of the effective time. In exchange for the cancellation of the equity awards, each holder of such an equity award received from us the Cash Consideration for each share of Former Forestar Common Stock underlying such equity award (and in the case of equity awards that were stock options or stock appreciation rights, less the applicable exercise or strike price, but not less than $0), whether or not otherwise vested as of the effective time. With respect to any of our market-leveraged stock units, the number of shares of Former Forestar Common Stock subject to such equity awards were determined pursuant to the terms set forth in the applicable award agreements and based on a per share value equal to $17.75.
In connection with merger activities, we incurred $43,819,000 in transaction costs in 2017, of which, $41,475,000 are included in general and administrative expenses and $2,344,000 in other operating expenses on our consolidated statements of income (loss).

On October 5, 2017, our stockholders received New Forestar Common Stock in connection with the Merger. Please see Note 3 — Merger for additional information.
On December 15, 2016, we issued 7,857,000 shares of our common stock upon settlement of the stock purchase contract related to the 6.00% tangible equity units. In 2016, we repurchased 283,976 shares of our common stock for $3,537,000. We have repurchased 3,777,308 shares of our common stock for $57,696,000 since we announced our 2009 strategic initiative of
repurchasing up to 20 percent or up to 7,000,000 shares of our common stock. The foregoing purchase authorization terminated upon closing of the Merger with D.R. Horton on October 5, 2017.
Note 13 — Net Income (Loss)Earnings per Share
Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the treasury stock method in 2017 and the two-class method for 2016 and 2015. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines net income per share for each class of common stock and participating security. We previously determined that our 6.00% tangible equity units issued in 2013 were participating securities. Per share amounts are computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during each period. In periods with a net loss, no such adjustment is made to earnings as the holders of the participating securities have no obligation to fund losses.
The computations of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are as follows:

The Tax Act was enacted on December 22, 2017, and reduced the federal corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent for all corporations effective January 1, 2018. ASC 740 requires companies to reflect the effects of a tax law change in the period in which the law is enacted. Accordingly, we have remeasured our deferred tax assets and liabilities along with the corresponding valuation allowance as of the enactment date. This remeasurement resulted in no additional tax expense or benefit except for the release of a portion of the valuation allowance for AMT credits which become fully refundable in future years as a result of the tax law change. We have determined based on current available information that no other tax law changes as a result of the Tax Act have a significant impact on our 2017 tax expense. The adjustment to the deferred tax accounts and our determination that no other tax law changes have a significant impact on our 2017 tax expense are our best estimate based on the information available at this time and may change as additional information, such as regulatory guidance, becomes available. Adjustments to estimated amounts, if any, would be reflected as a discrete expense or benefit in the quarter that it is identified, as allowed by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118.
OnIn October 5, 2017, D.R. Horton acquired 75 percent75% of ourthe Company's common stock resulting in an ownership change under Section 382.382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

At year-end 2017, we had approximately $9,200,000 and $69,200,000state NOL carryforwards, of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, which include certain recognized built-in losses that are deferred under Section 382. These carryforwards are subject to a full valuation allowance and $45,600,000 of the state carryforwards are attributable to states in which we are not currently doing business due to our exit from the oil and gas business. If not utilized, the federal carryforwards$1.4 million will expire inbetween 2030 and 2037 andwhile the state carryforwards will expire in 2020 to 2037. We had approximately $1,690,000 of AMT credit carryforwards which are refundable over the next four years ifremaining $0.3 million do not used to offset current taxes.have an expiration date.

The current year decrease in the valuation allowance for the year wasis primarily attributable to the remeasurementwrite-off of state deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result offor NOLs which are not expected to be utilized, resulting in no impact to state tax expense. The Company will continue to evaluate both the tax rate decrease from the Tax Act.
In determining our valuation allowance, we assessed available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income would be generated to permit usein determining the need for a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. Any reversal of the existing deferredvaluation allowance in future periods will impact the effective tax asset. A significant piece of objective evidence was the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, principally driven by impairments of oil and gas and real estate assets. Such evidence limited our ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projected future taxable income.rate.

Note 17 — Segment Information
We manage our operations through three business segments: real estate, mineral resources and other. Real estate secures entitlements and develops infrastructure on our lands for single-family residential and mixed-use communities, and manages our undeveloped land, commercial and income producing properties. Mineral resources managed our owned mineral assets. Other managed our timber, recreational leases and water resource assets.
We have divested all of our oil and gas working interest properties. As a result of this significant change in our operations, we have reported the results of operations and financial position of these assets as discontinued operations for all periods presented. In addition, we changed the name of the oil and gas segment to mineral resources to reflect the strategic shift from oil and gas working interest investments to owned mineral interests. We also changed the name of the other natural resources segment to other.
We evaluate performance based on segment earnings (loss) before unallocated items and income taxes. Segment earnings (loss) consist of operating income, equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated ventures, gain on sales of assets, interest income on loans secured by real estate and net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests. Items not allocated to our business segments consist of general and administrative expense, share-based and long-term incentive compensation, gain on sale of strategic timberland, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debthealth insurance and other corporate non-operating income and expense. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Our revenues are derived from our U.S. operations and all of our assets are located in the U.S. In 2017, one homebuilder accounted for $20,923,000 of our total real estate segment revenues. In 2016 and 2015, no single customer accounted for more than 10 percent of our total revenues, other than the customer associated with the sale of our Midtown Cedar Hill multifamily project in 2015.

Stock options have a ten-year term, generally become exercisable ratably over four years and provide for accelerated or continued vesting upon retirement, death, disability or if there is a change in control. All options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of our stock on the date of grant. In the first quarter of 2016, stock options were issued to each of two new directors to acquire 20,000 shares of common stock of which 6,500 shares vest on the first and second anniversary of the date of grant and the remaining 7,000 shares vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant. Expense associated with annual restricted stock units and non-qualified stock options to our board of directorsfixed price. This termination fee is included in share-based compensation expense. The following table summarizes the activitycost of stock option awards in 2017:

|
| | | | | | | | |
| | For the Year |
| | 2016 | | 2015 |

Weighted average grant date fair value of options (per share) | | $ | 8.60 |
| | $ | 6.51 |
|
We determine the expected life using the simplified method which utilizes the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual life of the awards. The expected stock price volatility assumption was determined using a blend of historical and implied volatility.
The intrinsic value of options exercised was $2,603,000 in 2017, $61,000 in 2016 and $0 in 2015.
Long-Term Incentive Compensation
In 2017 and 2016, we granted $1,180,000 and $620,000 of long-term incentive compensationsales in the form of deferred cash compensation. The 2017 deferred cash awards vest annually over three years, and the 2016 deferred cash awards vest after two years. The 2016 award provides for accelerated vesting upon retirement, disability, death, or if there is a change in control. Expense associated with deferred cash awards is recognized ratably over the vesting period or earlier based on retirement eligibility or accelerated vesting under the change of control provision. The 2016 award and the first payment on the 2017 award were settled in cash based upon their terms in connection with the Merger.
Note 19 — Retirement Plans
Our defined contribution retirement plans include a 401(k) plan, which is funded, and a supplemental plan for certain employees, which is unfunded. The expense of our defined contribution retirement plans was $660,000 in 2017, $978,000 in 2016 and $1,060,000 in 2015. The unfunded liability for our supplemental plan was $374,000 at year-end 2017 and $334,000 at year-end 2016 and is included in other liabilities.
Note 20 — Supplemental Oil and Gas Disclosures (Unaudited)
The following unaudited information regarding our oil and gas reserves has been prepared and is presented pursuant to requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).
As of year-end 2017, we had divested all of our oil and gas working interest properties. As a result of this significant change in our operations, we have reported the results of operations and financial position of these assets as discontinued operations within ourCompany's consolidated statements of income (loss)operations.
At September 30, 2020 and 2019, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets included $8.4 million and $2.2 million owed to D.R. Horton for all periods presented. However, all information presented in this unaudited supplemental oilany accrued and gas disclosures footnote includes all oilunpaid shared service charges, land purchase contract deposits and gas reserve estimates and results of operations. In addition, we have sold our remaining mineral assets and no longer own any oil and gas or mineral assets.
We engaged independent petroleum engineers, Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc., to assist in preparing estimates of our proved oil and gas reserves, all of which were located in the U.S., and future net cash flows as of year-end 2016 and 2015.
These estimates were based on the economic and operating conditions existing at year-end 2016 and 2015. Proved developed reserves are those quantities of petroleum from existing wells and facilities, which by analysis of geosciences and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be commercially recoverable, from a given date forward for known reservoirs and under defined economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations.
For 2016 and 2015, the primary internal technical person in charge of overseeing our reserves estimates had a Bachelor of Science in Physics and Mathematics and a Master's of Science in Civil Engineering. He had over 40 years of domestic and international experience in the exploration and production business including 40 years of reserve evaluations. He had been a registered Professional Engineer for over 25 years.
As part of our internal control over financial reporting, for 2016 and 2015 we had a process for reviewing well production data and division of interest percentages prior to submitting well level data to NSAI to assist us in preparing reserve estimates. Our primary internal technical persondue diligence and other members of management reviewed the reserve estimates prepared by NSAI, including the underlying assumptions and estimates upon which they are based, for accuracy and reasonableness.development cost reimbursements.
SEC rules require disclosure of proved reserves using the twelve-month average beginning-of-month price (which we refer to as the average price) for the year. These same average prices also were used in calculating the amount of (and changes in) future net cash inflows related to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows.
For 2016 and 2015, the average spot price per barrel of oil based on the West Texas Intermediate price was $42.75 and $50.28 and the average price per MMBTU of gas based on the Henry Hub spot was $2.48 and $2.59. All prices were then adjusted for quality, transportation fees and differentials.
The process of estimating proved reserves and future net cash flows is complex involving decisions and assumptions in evaluating the available engineering and geologic data and prices for oil and gas and the cost to produce these reserves and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. As a result, these estimates were imprecise and could be expected to change as future information became available.

| Includes natural gas liquids (NGLs). |
We did not have any estimated reserves or wells with production of synthetic oil, synthetic gas or products of other non-renewable natural resources that are intended to be upgraded into synthetic oil and gas as of year-end 2017, 2016 or 2015.
In 2017, we sold oil and gas wells located primarily in Texas and Louisiana. Our net reserves for those properties as of year-end 2016 were 446,000 barrels of oil and 5,035,000 Mcf of gas.
In 2016, we sold oil and gas wells located primarily in Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and North Dakota. Our net reserves for those properties as of year-end 2015 less our share of 2016 production were 4,155,000 barrels of oil, 305,000 barrels of NGL, and 3,756,000 Mcf of gas. Oklahoma properties sold were mainly mature gas wells. Kansas and Nebraska produce oil from the Lansing/Kansas City formation. The North Dakota oil wells produce from the Bakken/Three Forks formation.
In 2015, oil and gas properties having reserves consisting of approximately 704,000 barrels of oil and 1,223,000 Mcf of gas located primarily in the Texas Panhandle and Bakken/Three Forks formations were sold. Due to the significant decline in oil and gas prices during 2015, net negative revisions of previous estimates were 855,000 barrels of oil and 1,995,000 Mcf of gas. At year-end 2015, we had no barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) of proved undeveloped (PUD) reserves based on our plan to exit non-core oil and gas working interest assets compared with 2,703,000 BOE of PUD reserves at year-end 2014.
In 2016 and 2015, reserve additions from new wells drilled and completed during the year are shown for both consolidated entities and ventures accounted for using the equity method under extensions and discoveries. There were no new well additions in 2017, no new well additions in 2016 and 36 new well additions in 2015.

Results of Operations for Oil and Gas Producing Activities
Our royalty interests were contractually defined and based on a percentage of production at prevailing market prices. We received our percentage of production in cash. Similarly, for operating properties our working interests and the associated net revenue interests were contractually defined and we paid our proportionate share of the capital and operating costs to develop and operate the well and we marketed our share of the production. Our revenues fluctuated based on changes in the market prices for oil and gas, the decline in production from existing wells, and other factors affecting oil and gas exploration and production activities, including the cost of development and production.
Information about the results of operations of our oil and gas interests follows:

Note 2217 — Subsequent EventTransition Period Comparative Data
On February 8,
The following table presents certain financial information for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 we entered into and closed on a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Starwood Land, L.P. to sell 24 legacy projects for $232,000,000. This strategic asset sale included projects owned both directly and indirectly through ventures and consisted of approximately 750 developed and under development lots, over 4,000 future undeveloped lots (including all real estate associated with the Cibolo Canyons mixed-use development), 730 unentitled acres in California, an interest in one multifamily operating property and a multifamily development site. The agreement contains representations, warranties and indemnities customary for a real estate industry asset sale and includes certain adjustment provisions to the purchase price. The estimated total net proceeds after certain purchase price adjustments, closing costs and other costs associated with selling these projects is expected to be approximately $216,000,000.2017 (in millions, except per share amounts).
At year-end 2017, we have recorded the estimated fair value of these assets on our balance sheet and as a result have recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $3,000,000 related to the asset group. The owned real estate projects are classified as assets held for sale and our equity interests in ventures continued to be classified as investment in unconsolidated ventures at year-end 2017. The non-cash impairment is included in cost of real estate sales and other on our consolidated statements of income (loss). This transaction is not expected to have a material impact on our fiscal 2018 pre-tax earnings but is expected to generate tax losses which are currently anticipated to substantially reduce our income tax expense for fiscal 2018. | | | | | | | | | | | |
