Business Acquisition On October 1, 2015, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 14, 2015 (the "Merger Agreement"), between Standard Pacific Corp. ("Standard Pacific") and The Ryland Group, Inc. ("Ryland"), Ryland merged with and into Standard Pacific (the "Merger"), with Standard Pacific continuing as the surviving corporation. At the same time Standard Pacific changed its name to CalAtlantic Group, Inc.

In connection with the valuation of the conversion feature, the related deferred tax asset was reduced by approximately $35.9 million, with a corresponding increase in goodwill. The purchase price accounting reflected in the accompanying financial statements is preliminary and is based upon estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date pursuant to ASC 805) that may impact the fair value of the assets and liabilities above (including inventories, deferred income taxes, other assets and accrued liabilities). The $969.0 million of goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and it is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the allocation of goodwill to our reporting units is considered preliminary, as it is based upon estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the measurement period. The following presents summarized unaudited supplemental pro forma operating results as if Ryland had been included in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as of January 1, 2015. Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 (Dollars in thousands) Home sale revenues $ 1,331,079 $ 2,301,027 Pretax income $ 156,066 $ 243,403 The supplemental pro forma operating results have been determined after adjusting the operating results of Ryland to reflect additional amortization that would have been recorded assuming the fair value adjustment to intangible assets had been applied beginning January 1, 2015. Certain other adjustments, including those related to conforming accounting policies and adjusting acquired inventory to fair value, have not been reflected in the supplemental pro forma operating results due to the impracticability of estimating such impacts.

Note 5 - Earnings Per Common Share	6 Months Ended

Notes to Financial Statements
Earnings Per Share [Text Block]	5. Earnings Per Common Share We compute earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of basic common stock outstanding. Our Series B junior participating convertible preferred stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"), which was convertible into shares of our common stock at the holder’s option, and our unvested restricted stock, are classified as participating securities in accordance with ASC 260. Net income allocated to the holders of our Series B Preferred Stock and unvested restricted stock is calculated based on the shareholders’ proportionate share of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding on an if-converted basis. For purposes of determining diluted earnings per common share, basic earnings per common share is further adjusted to include the effect of potential dilutive common shares outstanding, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance share awards and unvested restricted stock using the more dilutive of either the two-class method or the treasury stock method, and Series B Preferred Stock and convertible debt using the if-converted method. Under the two-class method of calculating diluted earnings per share, net income is reallocated to common stock, the Series B Preferred stock and all dilutive securities based on the contractual participating rights of the security to share in the current earnings as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. In the computation of diluted earnings per share, the two-class method and if-converted method for the Series B Preferred Stock resulted in the same earnings per share amounts as the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock had the same economic rights as the holders of the common stock. In connection with the closing of the Merger with Ryland on October 1, 2015, the Company effected a reverse stock split such that each five shares of common stock of Standard Pacific common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger were combined and converted into one issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Company.

Marketable Securities, Available-for-sale The Company’s investment portfolio includes mainly municipal debt securities and metropolitan district bond securities, which are included in homebuilding other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. As defined in ASC Topic 320, Investments—Debt and Equity Securities The Company periodically reviews its available-for-sale securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair values that are below their cost bases, as well as whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. At June 30, 2016, the Company believes that the cost bases for its available-for-sale securities were recoverable in all material respects. The primary objectives of the Company’s investment portfolio are safety of principal and liquidity. Investments are made with the purpose of achieving the highest rate of return consistent with these two objectives. The Company’s investment policy limits investments to debt securities rated investment grade or better, as well as to bank and money market instruments and to issues by the U.S. government, U.S. government agencies and municipal or other institutions primarily with investment-grade credit ratings. Our policy places restrictions on maturities, as well as on concentration by type and issuer.

Investments in Unconsolidated Land Development and Homebuilding Joint Ventures The table set forth below summarizes the condensed combined statements of operations for our unconsolidated land development and homebuilding joint ventures that we account for under the equity method: Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 2015 (Dollars in thousands) (Unaudited) Revenues $ 20,204 $ 18,350 Cost of sales and expenses (12,825 ) (21,556 ) Income (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures $ 7,379 $ (3,206 ) Income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations $ 1,412 $ (502 ) Income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations represents our share of the income (loss) of our unconsolidated land development and homebuilding joint ventures, which is allocated based on the provisions of the underlying joint venture operating agreements less any additional impairments recorded against our investments in joint ventures which we do not deem recoverable. In addition, we defer recognition of our share of income that relates to lots purchased by us from land development joint ventures until we ultimately sell the homes to be constructed to third parties, at which time we account for these earnings as a reduction of the cost basis of the lots purchased from these joint ventures. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures included $0.8 million of income from our Southwest region joint ventures and $0.4 million of income from our Southeast region joint ventures. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures was primarily attributable to our share of income (loss) related to our West region joint ventures. During each of the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, all of our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures were reviewed for impairment. Based on the impairment review, no joint venture projects were determined to be impaired for the six months ended June 30, 2016 or 2015. The table set forth below summarizes the condensed combined balance sheets for our unconsolidated land development and homebuilding joint ventures that we accounted for under the equity method: June 30, 2016 December 31, 2015 (Dollars in thousands) (Unaudited) Assets: Cash $ 23,221 $ 34,893 Inventories 584,892 510,502 Other assets 14,272 14,540 Total assets $ 622,385 $ 559,935 Liabilities and Equity: Accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 26,590 $ 26,571 Non-recourse debt 30,223 33,704 CalAtlantic equity 156,277 130,750 Other members' equity 409,295 368,910 Total liabilities and equity $ 622,385 $ 559,935 Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets $ 147,631 $ 132,763 In some cases our net investment in these unconsolidated joint ventures is not equal to our proportionate share of total equity reflected in the table above primarily because of differences between asset impairments that we recorded in prior periods against our joint venture investments and the impairments recorded by the applicable joint venture. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, substantially all of our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures were in California. Our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures also included approximately $4.3 million and $2.9 million of homebuilding interest capitalized to investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which capitalized interest is not included in the condensed combined balance sheets above. Our investments in these unconsolidated joint ventures may represent a variable interest in a VIE depending on, among other things, the economic interests of the members of the entity and the contractual terms of the arrangement. We analyze all of our unconsolidated joint ventures under the provisions of ASC 810 to determine whether these entities are deemed to be VIEs, and if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. As of June 30, 2016, all of our homebuilding and land development joint ventures with unrelated parties were determined under the provisions of ASC 810 to be unconsolidated joint ventures either because they were not deemed to be VIEs and we did not have a controlling interest, or, if they were a VIE, we were not deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

The Revolving Facility has an accordion feature under which the Company may increase the total commitment up to a maximum aggregate amount of $1.2 billion, subject to certain conditions, including the availability of additional bank commitments. Interest rates, as defined in the credit agreement, approximate (i) LIBOR (approximately 0.46% at June 30, 2016) plus 1.75%, or (ii) Prime (3.50% at June 30, 2016) plus 0.75%. In addition to customary representations and warranties, the facility contains financial and other covenants, including a minimum tangible net worth requirement of $1.65 billion (which amount is subject to increase over time based on subsequent earnings and proceeds from equity offerings), a net homebuilding leverage covenant that prohibits the leverage ratio (as defined therein) from exceeding 2.00 to 1.00 and a land covenant that limits land not under development to an amount not to exceed tangible net worth. The Company is also required to maintain either (a) a minimum liquidity level (unrestricted cash in excess of interest incurred for the previous four quarters) or (b) a minimum interest coverage ratio (EBITDA to interest expense, as defined therein) of at least 1.25 to 1.00. We were in compliance with all of the Revolving Facility covenants as of June 30, 2016. The Revolving Facility also limits, among other things, the Company’s investments in joint ventures and the amount of the Company’s common stock that the Company can repurchase. On June 30, 2016, we had no borrowings outstanding under the facility and had outstanding letters of credit issued under the facility totaling $113.4 million, leaving $636.6 million available under the facility to be drawn. As of June 30, 2016, in addition to our $350 million letter of credit sublimit under our Revolving Facility, we were party to four committed letter of credit facilities totaling $48 million, of which $27.3 million was outstanding. These facilities require cash collateralization and have maturity dates ranging from October 2016 to October 2017. As of June 30, 2016, these facilities were secured by cash collateral deposits of $27.8 million. Upon maturity, we may renew or enter into new letter of credit facilities with the same or other financial institutions.

The 1.625% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.625% per year and will mature on May 15, 2018, unless earlier converted or repurchased. The holders may convert their 1.625% Convertible Notes at any time into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate of 31.8394 shares of common stock per $1,000 of their principal amount (which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $31.41 per share), subject to adjustment. The Company may not redeem the 1.625% Convertible Notes prior to the stated maturity date. The Company's 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 (the "0.25% Convertible Notes") are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed by the guarantors of our other senior notes on a senior unsecured basis. The 0.25% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 0.25% per year and will mature on June 1, 2019, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The holders may convert their 0.25% Convertible Notes at any time into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate of 13.5966 shares of common stock per $1,000 of their principal amount (which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $73.55 per share), subject to adjustment. The Company may not redeem the 0.25% Convertible Notes prior to June 6, 2017. On or after that date, the Company may redeem for cash any or all of the 0.25% Convertible Notes, at its option, if the closing sale price of its common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending within 5 trading days immediately preceding the date on which it provides notice of redemption, including the last trading day of such 30 day trading period, exceeds 130 percent of the applicable conversion price on each applicable trading day.

The 1.25% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.25% per year and will mature on August 1, 2032, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The holders may convert their 1.25% Convertible Notes at any time into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate of 24.8379 shares of common stock per $1,000 of their principal amount (which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $40.26 per share), subject to adjustment.

On or after August 5, 2017 and prior to the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 1.25% Convertible Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 1.25% Convertible Notes being redeemed. On each of August 1, 2017, August 1, 2022 and August 1, 2027, holders of the 1.25% Convertible Notes may require the Company to purchase all or any portion of their 1.25% Convertible Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 1.25% Convertible Notes to be repurchased. Our senior notes payable are all senior obligations and rank equally with our other existing senior indebtedness and, with the exception of our Convertible Notes, are redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, pursuant to a "make whole" formula. These notes contain various restrictive covenants. Our 10.75% Senior Notes due September 2016 (the "2016 Notes") contain our most restrictive covenants, including a limitation on additional indebtedness and a limitation on restricted payments. Outside of the specified categories of indebtedness that are carved out of the additional indebtedness limitation (including a carve-out for up to $1.1 billion in credit facility indebtedness), the Company must satisfy at least one of two conditions (either a maximum leverage condition or a minimum interest coverage condition) to incur additional indebtedness. The Company must also satisfy at least one of these two conditions to make restricted payments. Restricted payments include dividends, stock repurchases and investments in and advances to our joint ventures and other unrestricted subsidiaries. Our ability to make restricted payments is also subject to a basket limitation (as defined in the indenture). As of June 30, 2016, we were able to incur additional indebtedness and make restricted payments because we satisfied both conditions. Many of our 100% owned direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the "Guarantor Subsidiaries") guaranty our outstanding senior notes. The guarantees are full and unconditional, and joint and several. The indentures entered into prior to our merger with Ryland provide that a Guarantor Subsidiary will be released and relieved of any obligations under the applicable note guarantee in the event (i) of a sale or other disposition (whether by merger, stock purchase, asset sale or otherwise) of a Guarantor Subsidiary to an entity which is not CalAtlantic Group, Inc. or a Guarantor Subsidiary; (ii) the requirements for legal defeasance or covenant defeasance have been satisfied; (iii) a Guarantor Subsidiary ceases to be a restricted subsidiary as the result of the Company owning less than 80% of such Guarantor Subsidiary; (iv) a Guarantor Subsidiary ceases to guarantee all other public notes of the Company; or (v) a Guarantor Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary under the indentures for covenant purposes. The indentures entered into concurrently with the closing of our merger with Ryland provide that a Guarantor Subsidiary will be released and relieved of any obligations under the applicable note guarantee in the event that (in the case of the non-convertible senior notes) such Guarantor Subsidiary ceases to be a restricted subsidiary in the homebuilding segment or (in the case of the convertible senior notes) such Guarantor Subsidiary ceases to guaranty any publicly traded debt securities. Please see Note 22 for supplemental financial statement information about our guarantor subsidiaries group and non-guarantor subsidiaries group. During the 2016 second quarter, the Company issued $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.25% Senior Notes due 2026, which are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed by the guarantors of our other senior notes on a senior unsecured basis. We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds of this issuance to repay or repurchase our 2016 Notes.

These mortgage credit facilities consisted of a $300 million uncommitted repurchase facility with one lender, maturing in January 2017, and a $75 million repurchase facility with another lender, which matured in July 2016. These facilities require our mortgage financing subsidiary to maintain cash collateral accounts, which totaled $3.5 million as of June 30, 2016, and also contain financial covenants which require CalAtlantic Mortgage to, among other things, maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, not to exceed a debt to tangible net worth ratio, maintain a minimum liquidity amount based on a measure of total assets (inclusive of the cash collateral requirement), and satisfy pretax income (loss) requirements. As of June 30, 2016, CalAtlantic Mortgage was in compliance with the financial and other covenants contained in these facilities. As of the date of this filing, CalAtlantic Mortgage is currently negotiating a renewal of the $75 million repurchase facility.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	19. Commitments and Contingencies a. Land Purchase and Option Agreements We are subject to obligations associated with entering into contracts for the purchase of land and improved homesites. These purchase contracts typically require us to provide a cash deposit or deliver a letter of credit in favor of the seller, and our purchase of properties under these contracts is generally contingent upon satisfaction of certain requirements by the sellers, including obtaining applicable property and development entitlements. We also utilize option contracts with land sellers as a method of acquiring land in staged takedowns, to help us manage the financial and market risk associated with land holdings, and to reduce the near-term use of funds from our corporate financing sources. Option contracts generally require a non-refundable deposit for the right to acquire lots over a specified period of time at predetermined prices. We generally have the right at our discretion to terminate our obligations under both purchase contracts and option contracts by forfeiting our cash deposit or by repaying amounts drawn under our letter of credit with no further financial responsibility to the land seller, although in certain instances, the land seller has the right to compel us to purchase a specified number of lots at predetermined prices. In some instances, we may also expend funds for due diligence, development and construction activities with respect to our land purchase and option contracts prior to purchase, which we would have to write off should we not purchase the land. At June 30, 2016, we had non-refundable cash deposits outstanding of approximately $69.8 million and capitalized pre-acquisition and other development and construction costs of approximately $10.3 million relating to land purchase and option contracts having a total remaining purchase price of approximately $732.4 million. Our utilization of option contracts is dependent on, among other things, the availability of land sellers willing to enter into option takedown arrangements, the availability of capital to financial intermediaries, general housing market conditions, and geographic preferences. Options may be more difficult to procure from land sellers in strong housing markets and are more prevalent in certain geographic regions. b. Land Development and Homebuilding Joint Ventures Our joint ventures have historically obtained secured acquisition, development and construction financing designed to reduce the use of funds from corporate financing sources. As of June 30, 2016, we held membership interests in 27 homebuilding and land development joint ventures, of which 13 were active and 14 were inactive or winding down. As of such date, only two joint ventures had project specific debt outstanding, which totaled $30.2 million. This joint venture bank debt is non-recourse to us and is scheduled to mature in June 2017. At June 30, 2016, we had no joint venture surety bonds outstanding. c. Surety Bonds We obtain surety bonds in the normal course of business to ensure completion of the infrastructure of our projects. At June 30, 2016, we had approximately $840.6 million in surety bonds outstanding, with respect to which we had an estimated $392.1 million remaining in cost to complete. d. Mortgage Loans and Commitments We commit to making mortgage loans to our homebuyers through our mortgage financing subsidiary, CalAtlantic Mortgage. CalAtlantic Mortgage sells substantially all of the loans it originates in the secondary mortgage market and finances these loans under its mortgage credit facilities for a short period of time (typically for 30 to 45 days), as investors complete their administrative review of applicable loan documents. Mortgage loans in process for which interest rates were committed to borrowers totaled approximately $278.9 million at June 30, 2016 and carried a weighted average interest rate of approximately 4.1%. Interest rate risks related to these obligations are mitigated by CalAtlantic Mortgage through the preselling of loans to investors or through its interest rate hedging program. As of June 30, 2016, CalAtlantic Mortgage had approximately $185.5 million in closed mortgage loans held for sale and $23.4 million of mortgage loans that we were committed to sell to investors subject to our funding of the loans and the investors’ completion of their administrative review of the applicable loan documents. In addition, as of June 30, 2016, CalAtlantic Mortgage had approximately $255.5 million of mortgage loans in process that were or are expected to be originated on a non-presold basis, substantially all of which were hedged by forward sale commitments of mortgage-backed securities prior to entering into loan sale transactions with third party investors. Substantially all of the loans originated by CalAtlantic Mortgage are sold with servicing rights released on a non-recourse basis. These sales are generally subject to CalAtlantic Mortgage’s obligation to repay its gain on sale if the loan is prepaid by the borrower within a certain time period following such sale, or to repurchase the loan if, among other things, the purchaser’s underwriting guidelines are not met, or there is fraud in connection with the loan. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, CalAtlantic Mortgage recorded loan loss expense related to indemnification and repurchase allowances of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2016, CalAtlantic Mortgage had indemnity and repurchase allowances related to loans sold of approximately $3.7 million. In addition, during the second quarter of 2016 and 2015, CalAtlantic Mortgage made make-whole payments of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. e. Insurance and Litigation Accruals Insurance and litigation accruals are established with respect to estimated future claims cost. We maintain general liability insurance designed to protect us against a portion of our risk of loss from construction-related claims. We also generally require our subcontractors and design professionals to indemnify us for liabilities arising from their work, subject to various limitations. However, such indemnity is significantly limited with respect to certain subcontractors that are added to our general liability insurance policy. We record allowances to cover our estimated costs of self-insured retentions and deductible amounts under these policies and estimated costs for claims that may not be covered by applicable insurance or indemnities. Our total insurance and litigation accruals as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were $125.4 million and $125.3 million, respectively, which are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Estimation of these accruals include consideration of our claims history, including current claims, estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported, and potential for recovery of costs from insurance and other sources. We utilize the services of an independent third party actuary to assist us with evaluating the level of our insurance and litigation accruals. Because of the high degree of judgment required in determining these estimated accrual amounts, actual future claim costs could differ materially from our currently estimated amounts.

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	20. Income Taxes We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes Each quarter we assess our deferred tax asset to determine whether all or any portion of the asset is more likely than not unrealizable under ASC 740. We are required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion of the asset we conclude is more likely than not to be unrealizable. Our assessment considers, among other things, the nature, frequency and severity of our prior and cumulative losses, forecasts of our future taxable income, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, our utilization experience with operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and tax planning alternatives. Our 2016 second quarter provision for income taxes of $66.9 million primarily related to our $179.6 million of pretax income. As of June 30, 2016, we had a $338.9 million deferred tax asset which was partially offset by a valuation allowance of $1.4 million related to state net operating loss carryforwards that are limited by shorter carryforward periods. As of such date, $138.6 million of our deferred tax asset related to net operating loss carryforwards ($106.3 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards that were subject to the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“Section 382”) gross annual limitation of $15.6 million for both federal and state purposes, and $32.3 million of state net operating loss carryforwards that were not subject to such limitation). The remaining deferred tax asset balance of $200.3 million represented deductible timing differences, primarily related to inventory impairments and financial accruals, which have no expiration date. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our liability for unrecognized tax benefits was $11.7 million and $10.6 million, respectively, which is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, as of June 30, 2016, we remained subject to examination by various tax jurisdictions for the tax years ended December 31, 2011 through 2015.

[1]	The assets in our Corporate Segment include cash and cash equivalents and our deferred tax asset, and at December 31, 2015 included goodwill recorded in connection with our merger with Ryland. During the 2016 second quarter, recorded goodwill was allocated to the Company's reporting units (as of June 30, 2016, approximately $0.3 billion was included in each of the North, Southeast and Southwest segments, and approximately $0.1 billion was included in the West region). As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the allocation of goodwill to our reporting units is considered preliminary, as it is based upon estimates and assumptions that are subject to change within the measurement period.
