At September 30, 2005, the backlog of homes sold but not closed totaled 2,299 homes, a record for any quarter-end in the Company’s history, up 22% from 1,883 homes at September 30, 2004. At September 30, 2005, the dollar amount of backlog of homes sold but not closed totaled $1,210,356,000, a record for any quarter-end in the Company’s history, up 16% from $1,042,572,000 at September 30, 2004, and up 8% from $1,125,579,000 at June 30, 2005.
Selected financial and operating information for the Company including joint ventures is set forth in greater detail in a schedule attached to this release.
General William Lyon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “While the Company’s net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 was down approximately 15% from the comparable prior period as a result of reduced closings and lower gross margins, nevertheless the results for the quarter exceeded our expectations and our business plan for the quarter.”
General Lyon added: “We had anticipated that our closings for the quarter would fall short of the closings for the comparable prior period as a result of a reduction in the average number of sales locations in the first half of 2005 as compared to the first half of 2004, resulting in a lack of available product to sell.”
General Lyon further stated: “Our results for the quarter were also negatively impacted by a reduction of 150 basis points in our gross margin percentages for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2004 primarily due to the earlier close out of projects with higher average gross margins and a shift in product mix.”
Wade H. Cable, President and Chief Operating Officer, stated: “As we have previously indicated, we are continuing our focus on increasing the number of sales locations in the geographic markets in which we operate. While we ended 2004 with only 37 active sales locations, we now expect to open 35 new locations this year resulting in 47 active sales locations by the end of 2005.”
General Lyon concluded: “As we enter the fourth quarter, I am pleased by the 27% increase in the number of net new home orders to 834 for the third quarter of 2005 as compared to 659 for the third quarter of 2004. In addition, our backlog of homes sold but not closed at September 30, 2005 increased 22% to 2,299 homes with a dollar value of $1,210,356,000, both records for any quarter in the Company’s history.”

For the full year 2005, the Company continues to target deliveries at approximately 3,200, including consolidated joint ventures, which will result in total revenues in excess of $1.8 billion. However, as the Company has previously stated, a significant portion of the Company’s anticipated deliveries for the fourth quarter are expected to occur in the second half of the quarter. Because of the uncertainty of the timing of these deliveries and certain land sales in the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company continues to estimate that its full year 2005 earnings will be in a broad range of between $17.75 and $20.00 per share on a diluted basis.

The dial-in number is (866) 770-7129 (enter passcode number 11061305). Participants may call in beginning at 10:45 a.m. Pacific Time.

Ratio of adjusted EBITDA to interest incurred | | | | | | | | | | 5.33 | x | | | 4.89 | x |
| (1) | Interest incurred for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2005 includes $79,000 and $1,287,000, respectively, of interest related to debt of consolidated entities which totaled $16,203,000 at September 30, 2005, due to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, as amended. |
| (2) | Adjusted EBITDA means net income plus (i) provision for income taxes, (ii) interest expense, (iii) amortization of capitalized interest included in cost of sales, (iv) depreciation and amortization and (v) cash distributions of income from unconsolidated joint ventures less equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because it is a component of certain covenants in the indentures governing the Company’s 10 3/4% Senior Notes, 7 1/2% Senior Notes and 7 5/8% Senior Notes (“Indentures”). In addition, management believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to the Company’s investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because adjusted EBITDA is a widely utilized financial indicator of a company’s ability to service and/or incur debt. The calculations of adjusted EBITDA below are presented in accordance with the requirements of the Indentures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net income, cash flows from operating activities and other consolidated income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA is provided as follows: |
