Jeffrey P. Orleans, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated: “The downturn in the housing industry has continued, due to continued external factors, including rising unemployment and diminished consumer confidence. Ultimately, the housing market will get better, although the timing of such improvement is uncertain. The anticipated federal stimulus provides some hope that this rebound will occur sooner than previously expected. We are also hopeful that the anticipated federal stimulus bill will provide a meaningful tax credit for all homebuyers. We believe there is pent-up demand in some markets that when combined with reduced mortgage rates may stimulate buyers who have been waiting on the sidelines. With this in mind, we remain focused on our stated objectives, and we are confident in our long-term opportunities.”
Inventory Impairments, Impairment on Land to be Sold and Write-Off of Abandoned Projects and Pre-Acquisition Costs:
The overall economic downturn deepened during the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 significantly impacting the homebuilding market. Amidst rising unemployment, high foreclosures, increased supply of existing home inventory, tight credit and falling home resale values homebuyers’ confidence continued to deteriorate. This has resulted in increased sales incentives and decreased homebuyer demand causing the company to record pre-tax charges in the three and six months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, as follows:

Outlook
The challenges faced by the housing industry have increased during the last quarter. Difficulties which were previously confined to certain segments of the economy (including homebuilding) have expanded to a greater portion of the United States and global economy. Economic reports show that the United States economy is suffering from rising unemployment, lower consumer spending, falling wages, tight credit and continuing difficulties in the real estate industry. Housing starts have fallen to record lows, unemployment has increased and consumer confidence is at or near record lows. During the quarter, it was announced that the United States economy had been in a recession since December 2007. As a result, we believe that overall economic conditions and conditions in the housing and mortgage markets will remain difficult and these conditions may continue to have a negative impact on new orders, new order pricing and consumer confidence related to housing in the near term, thereby further reducing revenues, gross margins and net income. We are continuing to respond to these unfavorable market conditions by attempting to maintain absorption levels through the use of sales incentives, reevaluating our individual land holdings, reducing our land expenditures, limiting our supply of unsold homes under construction and emphasizing cost reductions to adjust for lower levels of production. Further decreases in demand for our homes may require us to further increase the use of sales incentives and to take other steps to reduce expenditures and expenses.
Garry P. Herdler, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer stated: “Given the lower net orders, weak economic conditions and capital markets volatility we observed during the second fiscal quarter, the Company has continued to focus on maintaining liquidity and generating cash flow. We have limited the supply of unsold homes under construction during the quarter, reduced our budgeted land expenditures in the coming quarters, and we continue to focus on cost reductions.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
(1) Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided a reconciliation of adjusted net loss and adjusted loss per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to net loss and loss per share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net loss and adjusted loss per share represents loss from continuing operations and loss per share from continuing operations excluding the after-tax effects of charges for inventory impairments, land sale impairments, the write-off of debt acquisition costs, the write-off of abandoned projects and other pre-acquisition costs, impairment of goodwill, severance charges and tax valuation allowances. For purposes of Regulation G, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excluded amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet, or statement of cash flows of the issuer; or includes amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. In this regard, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company believes these adjusted financial results are useful to both management and investors in the analysis of the Company’s financial performance when comparing it to prior periods and that they provide investors with an important perspective on the current underlying operating performance of the business by isolating the after-tax impact of non-cash charges related to inventory impairments, land sale impairments, the write-off of abandoned projects and other pre-acquisition costs, impairment of goodwill and tax valuation allowances.
